Field format - email

Hello,
I have a 'display as text' field, the data in it comes from a database column. My question is: How can i make a valid html link from it so when i press it my email program opens.
I know the syntaxis is <a href:mailto ...
But where do i put this?
Thanks in advance
OLI

Oli,
The following would be one way of achieving what you want to do:
Say the current item that holds the email address is: P1_EMAIL
If you make a DISPLAY ONLY (Display as Text (does not save state)) item (called, say, P1_EMAIL_LINK) and set its source to be:
<a href="mailto:&P1_EMAIL.">&P1_EMAIL.</a>
you will have yourself an email link which, when clicked, should fire up your email client. You'll probably want to make your original item, P1_EMAIL, into a HIDDEN item so as to avoid displaying the email address twice.

TS3276 After installing Lion in my iMac, some formatted emails contain in sections of the text rows of letter A contained in boxes.

After installing Lion in my iMac, some formatted emails contain, in some sections of the text, rows of the letter A contained in boxes. See attachment.

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

Date Field Formatting

Hi All,
I'm back already! Learning Flash is beginning to get to me
again so I returned for yet more help!
I've written the following AS code to get tomorrow's date . .
// Calculates today's date and tomorrow's date
var dToday:Date = new Date();
dToday.getDate()
trace("today: " + dToday) //today's date
myD = dToday.getDate() + 100; // plus one day
var dTomorrow:Date = new Date();
dTomorrow.setDate(myD)
trace("new: " + dTomorrow) //tomorrow's date
var strDate:String = new String();
var strDate = String(dTomorrow);
trace("String: " + strDate);
The strDate string returns the following value . . . "Tue Jul
11 16:19:57 GMT+0100 2006".
That is all well and good but I want to convert it into the
following format for comparison with another field . . .
"200607111619" which is basically the same value in the following
format . . . "yyyymmddhhmm".
Does the only way of doing this involve using parsing logic
to break down the original string and then reconstruct it in the
required format using variables from the broken down original
string?
I have tried looking at the Date Field object notes in my
book but it does not give me anything as regards this programming
requirement. The only thing I can find that might suit this purpose
is string parsing logic. Am I right or is there an easier way to
set a date field format?
Any help would as always be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Kevin.

I'm working on an application which requires a valid Voucher
Number to proceed. The Voucher number is based on a combination of
'date/time/no of items' (e.g. 20060711095802 which is today at
09:58 (on a 24 hr clock) for 2 (02) items).
As this date this date/time Voucher Number logic is
essentially sequential, in that each subsequent Voucher Number will
be greater than the last good known Voucher Number entered into the
application (which is already stored in a variable field for
comparison). But it must also be less than tomorrow's date, for
which the Voucher Number would always be tomorrow's date (e.g.
20060712 at 00:00 hrs for 00 items, thus giving 20060712000000).
This is the value that I'm trying to ascertain from the date field
logic.
It would thus be really handy for comparison if I could just
format tomorrow's date and time in the format yyyymmddhhmm and just
add '00' to the end of the string.
I don't like the idea of using the milliseconds value as it
will be necessary then to convert the Voucher Number entered to a
date field for comparison.

How to copy paste a table structure from word document into Text Field [field format Rich Text]

In our current implementation we have a Blank page with Text Field [field format Rich Text] on generated PDF Document.
Once the PDF document is generated, user can copy paste content form any word/rtf document to into the Text Field.
Pasted content retains all text formatting [Bold, Italic, Underline, Indentation] except the Table format. Text Field is removing table metadata from the content and converting it into plant text.
Is there anyway to copy paste table structure as it is from word document into Text Field?

Hi,
I don't think you can! While you can paste formatted text into the rich text field, the table metadata means nothing to the textfield.

HTML formatted Email notification with embedded images

I am using Oracle BPM 6.5 (Studio) and been spending my wheels on trying to send out an email from a process with formatting. I am able to send emails in plain text. I get a parseexception whenever I try to set the content type property of MAil object. Not sure what might be going on. Here is the sample code.
reminderEmail as Mail
reminderEmail = Mail()
reminderEmail.from="[email protected]"
reminderEmail.recipient="[email protected]"
reminderEmail.subject="Review xx Information"
reminderEmail.contentType = "Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8" (IT WORKS WITHOUT THIS LINE)
reminderEmail.message = "<HTML><h2>Please check and resend the message</h2></HTML>"
send reminderEmail
It would be great if I can get a sample to send out HTML formatted emails. I know it should work because the automatic notification mail that is sent out by the engine is HTML. This is the one where it says "The instance can be accessed "here""
Thanks so much

If you want to send the html page and have it
reference the images and css files on your web
site, that's pretty easy. Just create a message
with text/html content that is your html page.
If you want to include all the images and css files
in your message along with the html page, you'll
need to create a multipart/related message and
you'll need to change all the html to reference the
images and css files using "cid:" references.

Whole number field formatted as timezone in CRM 2013 SP1UR1 gives error on saving

Hi,
I added a whole number field formatted as time zone to the appointment form and when I save the record I get an error saying
Crm Exception: Message: An unexpected error occurred., ErrorCode: -2147220970, InnerException: System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OptionSetValue' to type 'System.IConvertible'.
This error is coming from the timezone field and only happens when I have data in the field. Has anyone seen this?
Thanks

More info, the error occurs on pipeline stage 30 of the Book or Reschedule message and the same thing happens in CRM 2015. I've started a thread on connect with URL
https://connect.microsoft.com/dynamicssuggestions/feedback/details/1128206/crm-2013-sp1ur1-cant-handle-the-timezone-field
This must be rather new because I've tried it in CRM 2011 UR late and it did not occur there, I haven't tried CRM 2013 RTM though so I can't say if it's a CRM 2013 or a CRM 2013 SP1UR1 issue.
BTW, the 2015 org was a complete vanilla so I've pretty much ruled out custom code as a culprit :)

Blank message body when sending or receiving HTML formated emails Exchange 2010

I Have just installed Exchange Server 2010 over the weekend on a customers system. All clients using either Outlook 2003 or 2007 are unable to see any text in the body of emails that are formatted in HTML. If they receive an email formatted as HTML there is no body text, if they send an Plain Text formatted email the recipient sees the text in the body. This problem presents across all Exchange users and affects all HTML formatted emails sent or received since transitioning from Exchange 2007 to 2010. Plain Text and Rich Text email present with no issues. If we import old email via a pst they afre able to see all email text both HTML and plain text. when we access the clients email account via OWA all emails work but then if we go into outlook 2003/2007 and click the email it removes the body text from the email in both the client and OWA have tried Outlook connection issues with Exchange 2010 mailboxes due to RPC encryption requirement
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/2006508 and it made no difference at all.
Thanks
Update: Have just tested further and all pc seem to work ok with either 2003 or outlook 2007 on. The problem only seems to be happening on the remothe desktop services server which has outlook 2007 ( have also tried outlook 2003 with same results)

We have just migrated to Exchange 2010 and have had some blank emails come in to our system. We think we have a reason and fix for
it. Hopefully this helps someone else…
Staffs have their own private mailbox (as you would expect) but also share common mailboxes like "Support" and "Info". When an email came
into the inbox on a shared mailbox, it might be blank. Plain text emails seemed to be okay.
We found that when an email came in, it was readable for about two or three seconds (you need to be setup to send a test and check the inbox quickly - we used Outlook 2007 with the reading pane turned on) and then it blanked out!. We checked the incoming
email by using the arrow keys to select it and then select the email below the new email, if you go back and forth between them you can see the good new email suddenly goes blank.
So send another test, but this time make sure the email is set to “Plain Text”. Our email turned up fine, two seconds latter
it had a NOD32 signature appended to the end of it saying that it had been scanned by NOD32 (you may have seen this kind of note appended to the end of emails before).
What appeared to be happening is that one or more users sitting at their desks in Outlook had different settings configured in NOD32 (they
were supposed to be using the server based profile that we control). We thought we had the server doing the AV work, but several of our client PCs had NOD32 enabled to integrate with Outlook. New items received in the shared Inbox’s were being scanned
by the client PCs and having a signature appended which was mucking up the HTML format of the email and Exchange 2010 blanked them out.
Make sure your AV products aren’t corrupting the email formats causing them to be displayed blank. Try tests using OWA only and don't
access the mailbox using Outlook.
Thanks.

HTML formatted email with international content displays wrong character

When reading HTML formatted email on the iPhone iOS4.1, it will sometimes display wrong characters.
Comparing email source content from various html formatted emails I can see that;
it displays incorrectly when:
- HTML formatted content
- Content type is marked as text/html with charset ISO-8859-1 (Latin1) which is the default html standard character encoding.
- The international characters are not written in html conversion format, i.e. ø instead of ø
It displays correctly when:
- The content is marked as text/plain and encoded as Quoted-printable
Anyway, the email which is display wrong characters on iPhone displayes correctly on OS X Mail app. Leading me to a temporary conclusion that it is a bug in iOS4.
Can anybody confirm this?

No matter which format you choose, you're sure to offend some recipients. Some people object to HTML, based on security or privacy concerns. Some prefer HTML because it's a more effective means of communication for some purposes.
If your default composition format is HTML (or plain text), hold Shift when you click Write, Reply or Forward to switch the format to the opposite type, or if HTML is the default, select Options/Delivery Format/Plain text only in the Write window to make a one-off change.

Invalid field format (screen error) on Table Control

Hello,
When selecting a line or multiple lines on a screen made by me(using a Table Control), I get Invalid field format (screen error). Debugging the code it sends the message when looping the internal table on PAI to check if there were values changed. Is there a reason why this error appears on this?
loop at it_values.
    chain.
      field pvalues-BEGDA.
      module CHANGE_QUEUE.
    endchain.
endloop.
Thanks.

No need to loop to check whether data is changed after PBO, just check System Field SY-DATAR, it will be set to 'X' if any field was changed.
So the following code is enough;
IF SY-DATAR EQ 'X'.
   PERFORM SAVE_DATA.
ENDIF.

Error Invalid field format (screen error) in module pool

Hi
experts i am doing module in whichi had many check boxes on screen and each check box has function code means i want to do some thing else . but as i click the first or any other check box i get a error message
INVALID FIELD FORMAT (SCREEN ERROR).
Can anyody help me with this asnwers will be rewarded points .
regards

Dear Farukh,
can you please let me know how have you declared you check boxes.
how did you handle the click or the function codes in the user command module in your PAI.
The declaration of your fucntion codes can be done when you create your screen fields and then they need to be handled in the user command module i.e what you want to do when suppose you click on that particular check box.
Thanks
