Empty "mini-months" and iCal dock date
iCal is acting weird on one of the Mac user's Mac Pro that I support. In the dock, it no longer shows the date. The icon is there but no number. When you are in iCal, all of her events show up properly as do her calendars but the mini-month calendar shows no month or numbers and in month view, it does not show the month or current date. In week view, it does not show the current date.
We've done the obvious. Run disk utility/repair permissions, thrown away her preference files (any com.apple.ical....plist) under her home folder/Library/Preferences. I've run Software Update and all is up to date. I did create a new account to verify that this is just with her account and not all users which it is - it works properly in a new account so it's something with just her account.
Any suggestions on what to do next? All of her events and calendars are intact so I want to be careful not to mess those up.
Hi Ferd II,
It was a font issue. Thank you for recommending that -- it ended up that Helvetica Neue within the System Folder was damaged and needed to be replaced. Unfortunately because she was using Suitcase, Suitcase won't allow you to remove Helvetica Neue from Suitcase because it's in System/Library/Fonts. Even deleting the database and preferences didn't allow me to remove Helvetica Neue from Suitcase. I ended up reinstalling Suitcase which fixed the problem
Thank you!

ICal Dock Date is Always Wrong
What setting can I change so that the iCal icon in the dock displays the current date. Unless the calendar is open, the dock dates shows July 17. Very annoying. I don't need to keep the calendar open, but I would like to see the current date.
Lizz,
I do not intend to annoy you any further, but the iCal behavior that you are observing is "hard wired" default.
I just "Hide" iCal and accept the fact that iCal is open. It uses 0.00% CPU and 4.00 MB Real Memory without degradation to system performance.

Month and Year-To-Date Grouping
Hello,
I have 4 key figures. For each of the key figures I need to display the value for the month and the value for the year-to-date. Example, if the user selects October as the month the query should display only the totals for October and the totals from January to October. The user does not want to see the totals for January, February, March and so on.
........................Month of October.................Year-To-Date
No. of Orders .................. 3,005..................... 22,950
Order Value ..................190,000................ 5,900,000
Canceled Orders .....................7........................... 60
Value of Canceled Orders......700........................8000
Can someone tell me how I go about doing that?Hello MIG,
I guess you can create a structure for your key figures at the rows area of the query and a structure for your dates (e.g. fiscal periods) at the columns area. For your columns, you will need two restricted key figures. The first key fgure will be for your user's current month (e.g. Oct) -- this will be equal to fiscal year/period restricted by a user entry variable for the current month. The second key figure will be for your year to date KF (e.g. Jan to Oct) -- this will be equal to fiscal year/period restricted by a customer exit variable that computes for the date range between Jan and the user's current month. <b>OR</b> you can ask the user to input the initial date (should be defaulted to Jan 2006*) and the current month in a date range -- this will be an interval variable. Hope this helps.

Using an expression in SSRS to display rolling 12 month and year to date volumes
I need some help in writing an expression in SSRS. I have a table that contains date columns and rows that contain different types of data groups. (e.g. total number of items received during the month, total dollars for the month, etc.) I want to add two
new columns to the end of the report that will display a rolling twelve month total for each of the different rows of data. Plus a column that would show year to date totals for the same rows.
I was thinking I could accomplish this by adding expressions for each row in the new 'rolling twelve month' and 'YTD' columns in my report however, I'm not sure how to structure the expressions to achieve this.
Here is an example of how my report currently looks. (I added a pipe delimeter in case the formatting changes once this is submitted.)
Jan-2014 | Feb-2014 | Mar-2014 | Apr-2014 | Rolling 12 mth | YTD
Items received 100 | 35 | 45 | 12 | 192 | 192
Dollars $50.00 | $25.00 | $120.00 | $15.00 | $210.00 | $210.00
Any guidance you can provide would be appreciated.
Thank youThis example shows how to get what you need. It'll take modifying your query to add two cased columns onto the end.

Saved PDF as "optimized PDF" then "save as other" > spreadsheet > Microsoft Excel Workbook.
Problem: numbers in some random dates are transposed so that month and day are reversed. No particular pattern to these errors. Only fix we've found is to go through and manually check and correct the date errors - there are hundreds of these errors in the document so this is not a good solution.
(Note: Excel columns with dates are specified as "date" fields. All dates are formatted as m/d/yy)
Any ideas what's causing this problem problem and how to fix it?

Getting Day, month and year from Date object
hello everybody,
Date mydate = Resultset.getDate(indexField);
Now i would like to get day, month and year from mydate.
In another words, i'm looking for something equivalent to
mydate.getDay() as this method is deprecated.
Can somebody help me out please?
Thank you in advance,swvc2000,
Here is a sample class that demonstrates two ways in which to do this.import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
public class DateSplitter {
public static void main(String args[]) {
/* even though your date is from a result set,
pretend the following date is your date that
you are using. The try catch block is used
because I hand-crafted my date using
SimpleDateFormat. Substitute your date.*/
Date yourDate = null;
try {
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
yourDate = formatter.parse("05/06/2000");
} catch (ParseException e) { }
//the following gets the current date
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
//use the calendar object to set it to your date
c.setTime(yourDate);
//note months start at zero
int month = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
int year = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
int dayOfMonth = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
System.out.println("Calendar Month: "+month);
System.out.println("Calendar Day: "+dayOfMonth);
System.out.println("Calendar Year: "+year);
System.out.println();

out of your date object. When you use it, notice that
months start at 1. Also, it returns string values. If
you need integer values, you will have to use
Integer.parseInt() as I did below. If you are
only concerned about the string values, just remove
the Integer.parseInt part. */

Loop through month and year till date while using a merge statement
Hello Guys,
I have 2 tables with the following datas in them:-
Company
CompanyId CompanyName
1 Company1
2 Company2
3 Company3
Employees
EmployeeId EmployeeName CompanyId StartDate
1 Employee1 1 12/21/2011
2 Employee2 1 01/20/2012
3 Employee3 2 03/23/2012
4 Employee4 2 07/15/2012
5 Employee5 2 01/20/2013
6 Employee6 3 12/17/2013
Now i want to check, How many people were recruited in the team in the specified month and year? I have the storage table as follows:-
RecruiterIndicator
CompanyId Year Month EmployeeRecruited
1 2011 12 1
1 2012 1 1
2 2012 3 1
2 2012 7 1
2 2013 1 1
3 2013 12 1
This should be a merge stored procedure that should update the data if it is present for the same month year and company and insert if that is not present?
Please help me with this
Thanks
AbhishekIt's not really clear where the merge to come into play. To get the RecruiterIndicator table from Employess, this query should do:
SELECT CompanyId, Year(StartDate), Month(StartDate), COUNT(*)
FROM Employees
GROUP BY CompanyId, Year(StartDate), Month(StartDate)

Get month and year from date type
Hi all,
I need to get the month and year from the date type.
For example select to_date('2011-01-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') from dual;Result needed:
01-2011Any ideas?
thanks in advance,
Bahchevanov.Hello Bahchevanov,
if you need the date to compute something, then you can
TRUNC(SYSDATE,'mm')This will give you a date with the days removed -> 01.01.2011

What is the formula to find the months and days between dates
Tricky... The first problem is the intended result. Months have a varying number of days in them, days and weeks have set values. For example the difference between 1st July and 1st September is 2 months but this does not give an accurate count of the number of days (61).
It would be better to calculate the number of days difference and forget the months.
You would need a lookup table showing a numeric value for each date that would show each date with a day value from a starting point. If your earliest date is 01/01/2000 then that would be day zero. Then using the lookup table calculate the day value for your beginning and end dates. Subtract one from the other to get the number of days.
If all your dates are from this year:
You can create your own Cell Format (call it day of the year) Select the Type: Date & Time
drag the icon for Day of Year into the box and delete the others.
Convert your dates to this new Format, subtract one value from the other to get the number of days difference. -
i want to make my budget speadsheet update the month and date as it goes to the next month automatically, from sheet to sheet. is there any way to make this happen?
You could have a cell where you enter the month and year...
Or you could pull the month and year from the first entry in the date column. Like Barry I would want more information regarding your set up before proposing any other, more specific, ideas. -
Select Expert Record. Last 6 months and week start date on Monday
Hello,
i am trying to use the select expert record to grab the last 6 months worth of data. I require the week start day to be a monday and end on a sunday.
Can someone please provide some advice the best way to do this
kind regards
davidHello Abhilash,
Once again thanks for your reply.
Yes this is correct, when it goes back 6 months i need it to skip the days prior and begin on a monday as we are reporting on a mon-sunday basis.
I have tried your formula Date field >= dateadd('m',-6,currentdate) and it seems to grab 6 months of data, but the group weeks are not grouping from Monday to Sunday...
kind regards
david

Default Month and Year in Date Paramater
Hi,
I have a question and not able to understand how to show a default current month year i.e 112010 as a deualt value in the prompt.
Thanks in Advance,
Poojakone more problem i found with that code is:
if current date is January's date, it gives 12010 instead of 012010 and if you are filtering column is holding values like mmyyyy format, it'll give no results..
i want you to create a repository variable which holds current_date format in mmyyyy format..
now, use that repository variable here in default section by selecting server variable..
select to_Char(sysdate, 'mm') || to_Char(sysdate, 'yyyy') from dual -

Can you view mini months in ical OS 10.7?
Is there any way of doing this - where have all the functions and views gone???
Thanks.Looks like I may have to swallow some Mac pride and use Outlook until things are back to macnormal!
Wouldn't it be nice to have the old views and perhaps some coloful skins to choose from for iCal and also Mail. I have just installed Lion and these Apps have gone backwards from a visual point of view.
Thanks for your reply. -
I have a situation, where i need to write expression Period to date(PTD). i want to know how to get the period date. i want you to help in writing Period date or else is there any function to get period date for a given date(the date is given
from the parameter dynamically) in MDX for SSRS report
ramHi ram,
Per my understanding that you want to get the period date based on the month selected and the given date, right?
Could you please provide details information below to help us better understanding your requirements, thus we will be more effective to provide an solution:
What is the format of the period date you want to get, is this date in the DB and you want to filter it based on the month and the given Date?
Did the month and given date are two parameters in the report? if possible, could you please provide some sample data in the DB and also the snapshot of the report structure
I assume you want to get the period date(mm/dd/yyy) between the select month(e.g:Feb) and the given date (10/1/2014) and you should get the date between(02/01/2014-10/1/2014).
If so,and you also have two parameter "Month","EndDate"(EndDate is the given date), please reference to details information below:
You can create an new parameter "BeginDate" (Date/Time) which is the begin date of the period, you can use the expression to get the value based on the value of the month and the year value from the given date,finally hide this parameter:
Specify the available value:
Label:=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value)
Value:=CDate(=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value))
Specify the default Value:
Value:=CDate(=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value))
Add filter to the dataset as below:
Preview you will get all the date in the given Period:
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
