    I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried  to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

    I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
    What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
    Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?

    Hi, My ipad has been stolen and I set up the erase data function in i cloud "find my device". I then changed my mind and wanted to change this to locate my device rather. When I deleted the "erase" option it removed my ipad from the find my device list. Can I restore it back onto the list?

    Once a wipe is sent, it cannot be stopped. You will not be able to track your iPad after that.

  • Oracle indexes that are missing in the SAP Data Dictionary

    We have an old SAP SAP system we just shut down, but Oracle is still up.
    I am trying to put together a query using DBA_INDEXES and a SAP Data dictionary table, that will show me what tables are in Oracle and not in the SAP data dictionary.
    I cannot bring up SAP, but database is still up.

    Hi Bill,
    Table DD12L contains the definition of the SECONDARY indexes.
    Watch it, indexes may be concatenated to table with ^ or ~ or severel
    _ chars so an index 3 for a table might be named
    table~3
    table^3
    table_____3
    depending on what upgrade History the system has.
    For primary indexes, you should ensure, that every table has an index
    with suffix 0 as in
    table~0
    table^0
    table_____0
    Hope this helps

    Hi,
    The BO version is "BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0"
    The case is that, some reports are uploaded withe saved data. while viewing the reports, the reports return the old data.
    How to view the update data while click the "View" in CMC/InfoView ?
    I have tried to schedule it , then can see the update data in "View the latest instance".
    Is there any approach to refresh/update the saved data in the report ?
    Thanks and regards,
    Forest

    Hello Forest lin,
    I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
    It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
    Best regards,

  • Validate Date if it falls within 30, 120 and 365 days of the audit date I enter on any given day

    PDF Forms in Acrobat 9 Pro
    When auditing a file, I enter the date I am auditing it.
    Example: 02/18/2015
    I then enter dates of when information was last verified. Some of these dates need to fall within 30 days of the audit date I enter on any give day and others need to fall within 120 days and another within 365 days. If they don't fall within the specified number of days for that field, I would like it to give an error message in that filled.
    Examples:
    College Grad Date 01/15/2015
    Certification Date  12/23/2015
    License Date  02/13/2014 - This is over 365 days so I do not want the date, I want it to display "Need to re-verify"
    I do not have any inkling of an idea of how to write this. Your help would be most appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Solved the problem- I contacted apple on their support line found on this page... http://www.apple.com/uk/support/mac/ and they were really helpful and talked me through what to do on the phone, I now have all three productivity apps. Hope this helps
