File path control-how to avoid the user to change the path string

Hi all,
I'm using "File path control" to chose file name. I don't want the user to write the path in the control directly (by typing) but only to choose the file via the button on the right.
I can implement this behaviour with path indicator and button of course. But I belieave that it can be done more elegant - only disable the part with the string - not the whole "File path control". But how? I tried to customize the control but not success.
Is it possible?

Path.vi ‏44 KB

The way I've done it is to make the path part of the control tiny and hide it behind a string indicator. Then whenever the path control changes value (by pressing the Browse button), I populate the string indicator with the path value. Here's a sample VI demonstrating this method, saved in LabVIEW 8.0.
Hope this helps,

File Input can't get full file path when user choose to upload it

i saw the solution which many used it to return the file path,
at this link:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143220
comment#40 and #50
but they don't want to hold it to use it later, i want that, i can't hold the full file path in my hand and set it to a variable to use it later, i have to use only javascript DON'T Applets. and i use FireFox 3.6.3 or later version.
Please, what can i do ?....can any one help me .... ?
thank you an advance.....

User Select File Path Before Running Rest of VI?

I am designing a system where data is being acquired and written to 12 data files, and I would like to have the operator have the option of selecting the data path while keeping the filenames of the individual files constant. It is necessary for the data not to be acquired until the operator completes the prompt so the data acquisition and writing are synchronized. How can design my VI to not start the data acquisition and writing the data until the operator has selected the file path?
I've attached my program below. It has a producer/consumer design with two consumer loops. One consumer loop will process and write the data and the other controls a water bath based on the data that is acquired.

NT_Engineer,
Hello! If I understand what you are asking correctly, you just want to have the user select a file path before you start your data acquisition, control, and file writing. Is this correct?
There are multiple ways in which you could do this.
As mentioned previously you could design your VI to operate like a State Machine.
A flat sequence structure could be used to first execute a dialog portion of your code, and then the data acquisition portion.
You could use an event structure to not start your program until a user clicked "Done" button.
Let me know if this is what you were asking.

How to validate a Particular Directory or file path in Presentation server.

Hi SAP gurus,
I am having a requirement where I want to download a file into the Presentation server.
The file path to download will be provided in a parameter.
What I want to do is to throw a message to the user if He/She provides a wrong Directory or File path.
For example :
Say the user is providing the file download path as " E:\test.txt", but there is no "E" drive or such directory in the presentation. So in this case I should be able to check the wrong Directory provided by the user and throw some message to the user saying there is no such Directory present. Please give a proper directory or similar messages.
I have found a FM: PFL_CHECK_DIRECTORY but i am not able to use it properly.
So do you have any FM or any method and its explanation to fulfill my requirement .

Do it this way:
tables:
spfli.
parameters:
p_file type rlgrap-filename          " File name
                   obligatory.
Data:
t_final_data like table of spfli.
at selection-screen on value-request for p_file.
call function 'F4_FILENAME'
   exporting
     program_name        = syst-cprog
     dynpro_number       = syst-dynnr
     field_name          = ' '
   importing
     file_name           = p_file.
at selection-screen.
data:
    lw_file type string.              " File Path
lw_file = p_file.
select * from spfli into table t_final_data.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
   EXPORTING
     filename                        = lw_file
   tables
     data_tab                        = t_final_data.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
    message 'File not found' type 'E'.
endif.
With luck,

F4 help popup to browse file path in web dynpro

I need F4 help popup to browse file path in Web dynpro (for example C:\dir\file.xls). Popup should come like FM "F4_FILENAME" in report programming.
Am i need to create another window or is there any other standard functionality there for this help.
Please give your view to achieve this.
Thanks
Gokul

Hello Arun & Abhi,
File upload UI element has showing File browse pop up. But i want to download file from an internal table to Excel. User need to give file path so that the directory selection needs to be done. And also the user will select the directory and type the file name (File so far not exist) for download.
If i add UI element 'File Download' I am getting a link and i cant browse directory and give file.
Give your suggesions.
Thanks

Inserting file path/filename

Hi, all out there,
I've just strated using Pages '08, and exploring it. But Pages Help and User Guide do not tell me how to insert the file path or filename in the footer, so that it's automatically updated whenever changed. It's not in the Insert menu, and cannot find it in Insert > Function.

Hi Peggy,
Though that feature is useful isn't found in 10.4.10. The Devon Technologies WordService ReadMe file has the following:
Insert:
Contents Of Path
Inserts files and folders of the selected path (tilde is expanded)
and of all its subdirectories (e.g. select the path '~/' and this function
will insert all contents of your home directory)
Short Date Cmd-'{'
Inserts the current date (no text selection necessary)
Long Date Cmd-'}'
Inserts the current date (no text selection necessary)
Short Date & Time Cmd-'_'
Insert the current date & time (no text selection necessary) Long Date & Time Cmd-'%'
Insert the current date & time (no text selection necessary) Time
Insert the current time (no text selection necessary)
Maybe that's what you're seeing in your services menu perhaps.
Sincerely,
RicD

You need to configure your config directory before you deploy. If you never configured v2 listener before then create a new folder like "c:\apex\config". Then use
java -jar apex.war configdir c:\apex\config
Then do your configuration as required and then deploy again.

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

"File file path:to:file is already open" how do i close it?

I am trying to write a script that pops up a dialog box, asks for text and saves this to a .csv and a .txt This is so i can quickly record what i am doing and the times i am doing it, makes quick notes and various things like that. However it is failing with the message "File file path:to:file is already open" so how do i close the file or get around this. Cheers
Script Below
tell me to activate
display dialog "Enter the log message:" default answer "" buttons {"Cancel", "Ok"} default button "Ok"
copy the result as list to {the log_message, the button_pressed}
if the button_pressed is not "Cancel" then
set curTime to (do shell script "date \"+%H:%M:%S\"")
set curDate to (do shell script "date \"+%Y%m%d\"")
set new_foldername to curDate
set this_folder to (path to current user folder) as text
set fPath2 to this_folder & "Documents:Logs:Date:" as alias
--set this_folder to "Macintosh HD:Users:username:" as alias
tell application "Finder"
if not (exists folder new_foldername of fPath2) then
make new folder at fPath2 with properties {name:new_foldername}
end if
end tell
set fPath to (path to current user folder as Unicode text) & "Documents:Logs:Date:" & curDate & ":"
set fName to curDate & ".csv"
set myFile to open for access file ((fPath as string) & fName) with write permission
write curTime & "," & log_message & return to myFile starting at eof
close access myFile
set fName2 to curDate & ".txt"
set myFile to open for access file ((fPath as string) & fName2) with write permission
write curTime & " " & log_message & return to myFile starting at eof
close access myFile
end if

Hi Richard,
Run this in the script editor:
set f to choose file
close access f
Navigate to the file you left open. Probably there was an error and the file was left open because it never reached the 'close access' command.

Error while saving the file path

I have come across a problem in LSMW.
In specify files step when I was trying to give the filename either in Presentation server or Application server and then save ,I am getting an error called 'No Logical Path has been specified'. In debugging I can see p_log_path and p_log_file are initial where as p_phys_file_compl has the file which is created automatically with standard naming convention. These 3 fields represents Converted Data files. I think the problem is with settings since the error is not happening to other users. If we double click 'Converted Data' I can see Logical Path and Logical File fields. If I give the same file that is used for converted data it is asking me to create and if we agree then it creates and then we are able to save. So I think there is some setting changes or some other thing happened which at this stage I couldn't find out because I have not changed any settings. So can you please let me know if u have come across the same problem or if u know the solution.

In the <b>specify files path</b> have u specified the paths correctly.

SSIS - Loop through files from a file path based on the value in the variable

Experts,
I have a requirement where I'll be loading multiple files in to a SQL server table and archive the files when loaded. However, the challenge is , the file path should be dynamic based on the value of a variable (say, @ProductName).
For example: If I am running the package for variable @ProductName="Product", the file path would be "\\....\Src\Product", in that case the ForEachLoop will loop through all the files in that folder, load them to the table and Archive
the files to the "\\....\Src\Product\Archive" folder.
Similarly, if the @ProductName="Product_NCP", the foreachloop container should loop through files in the "\\....\Src\Product_NCP" folder, load them to the table and archive them to the ""\\....\Src\Product_NCP\Archive"
folder.
Any suggestions? I should be able to run the package manually just by passing the "@Product" value, create Archive folder if it doesn't exist, load the data and archive the files.

Yes
1. Have a variable inside SSIS to get folder path. Set path based on your rule using an expression
like
(@[User::ProductName] == "Product" ? "\\....\Src\Product" : (@[User::ProductName] == "Product_NCP" ? \\....\Src\Product_NCP:..))
similary archive
(@[User::ProductName] == "Product" ? "\\....\Src\Product\Archive" : (@[User::ProductName] == "Product_NCP" ? "\\....\Src\Product_NCP\Archive" :..))

Issue with Getting the file path from InputFile component

Hi,
One of our requirement is like below:
I am working on ADF 11g (latest release R1) page. User will select the file and when he/she clicks on the Save button we need to store the file path in the database.
In the database file_path is varchar2(300). We need to store just the file path. I am using InputFile component but filepath is not getting inserted.
This is really urgent. It would be really appreciate if anyone can guide me on this.
Thanks

Hi Mahesh,
I have manage to store the file path from the InputFile component in Jdev 11g. I found the file upload script from this forum and manage to alter it so that i could save the file path to the database. But my problem is to retrieve it back to view as a document. Hope this will help you :)

How to force the File Path Control Browser button to the RT Target instead of the host machine?

I am building an application on a RT PXI system, and for one of the functions I would like the user to be able to use the browser button of the File Path Control to choose a directory on the PXI. However the browser button seems to only want open a file on the host PC, even though the application is fully deployed on the target. Note that I am controlling the PXI from a host PC.
If anyone has any suggestions that would be great. Thanks.

Hi,
Unfortunately, there is not a VI to do this. Are you browsing to these files from your host VI? In order to access the files on your PXI RT target, you'll need to FTP in and browse to them that way. You could programmatically do this, but there is not a simple VI to do so.
