File name generation with sequence number

Hi All,
My scenario is, File to File. I need to generate the filenames at the target side like File1.xml, File2.xml..File9999.xml for each file triggered from source system. The interface tiggesrs multiple times in a day.
For example, for the first time, 5 files triggered, need to generate File1.xml,File2.xml..File5.xml. After some time the interface might trigger with 10 files, then need to generate files as File6.xml,File7.xml....File15.xml . Once the file count reaches 9999 then need to generate the files from 1 (File1.xml)again.
Could you please suggest me the possible solutions. For this any Lookups required?
Regards,
Praveen Kumar

Hi Praveen,
Case 1: If a field in source data carries the information regarding the sequence.
You can map this value ( Directly .. or using some transformation ) in some temporary field in the target and then use a Variable substitution at the receiver communication channel.
Case 2. If the source file name carries the sequence information. then you can enable the Adapter specific settings in the Sender communication channel , and then get the information of the source file name using the Container object in the mapping. Then assign the sequence number to a field in the target , use a Variable substitution at the receiver communication channel.
Case 3 : If Case 1 and Case 2 are not applicable ... then you have to use a Ztable to store the sequence number , a function module to fetch the number , and then use a UDF in which you will implement the RFC call logic.Then the same process .... assign the sequence number to a field in the target , use a Variable substitution at the receiver communication channel.

Sushil.

Can't open files where the name starts with a number

On our network server, we have some folders where the files are numbered. Example:
1 - Memo
2 - Agenda
3 - Report X
4 - Report Y
5 - Report Z
We have 5 Macs in our office. Everybody can read these files fine except for one person. On her computer she can't open any file that starts with a number and gets the below error message. How do I fix this?
All our Macs (to the best of my knowledge) are setup exactly the same since they were purchased at the same time late last year.

Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4

Frustrating problem: Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4. What happens is this. When I am in PS CS4 or CS3 and run the following script it runs fine. When I am in Bridge and go to tools/photoshop/batch and run the same script it runs until it wants interaction with preference.rulerunits. How do I get it to quit doing this so I can run in batch mode? Any help is appreciated. HLower
Script follows:

Output file names from Premiere sequences in AME CS5

Why, oh why, does AME not automatically names files according to their sequence names when added from a Premiere project? Instead, it auto-names them sequentially based on the project name. It is extremely annoying and confusing when trying to queue-up a project with many sequences.
Is there a way to change this behavior (other than to simply disable "Increment output file name", which results in multiple targets of the same exact name) ?
I really wish you could have it name the files like the sequence names.

Just to confirm what you're saying: Premiere Pro sequences added to AME from Premiere Pro are not being named properly? Because they should be...
However, Premiere Pro sequences added to AME from AME (File > Add Premiere Pro Sequence) are NOT named for the sequence, and there is no way around this; you get the project name with a serial digit. There is no setting to change this behavior, unfortunately--it is how it is.
I must agree: it is a particularly annoying oversight. How to change this behavior? Like this: Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form

File name end with *

Hi ,
While working with files i found that a new file is always ends with "*"
i.e
suppose if my file name is abc.txt
then my solris box displays it as abc.txt*.
It is creating problem while creating and reading files.
Please suggest , how can i get away with this "*" .
Thanks

(Not sure what the relation is to the compiler, maybe ask on opensolaris instead?)

If you create files with execution permission, "ls" is often configured to print it with a trailing '*', just like it adds / for a directory, @ for a symlink, etc. man ls to disable it.
It is creating problem while creating and reading files.What problem when you read the files how? It is hard to answer a question without some information...

File name substitution with Data pump

Hi,
I'm experimenting with Oracle data pump export, 10.2 on Windows 2003 Server.
On my current export scripts, I am able to create the dump file name dynamically.
This name includes the database name, date, and time such as the
following : exp_testdb_01192005_1105.dmp.
When I try to do the same thing with data pump, it doesn't work. Has anyone
had success with this. Thanks.

Refinement Panel show "file name" values with question mark instead of spaces

Hi,
I customized Refinement Panel to refine by file name. In some cases the value (file name) is shown with question mark instead of space. It looks like gibberish and the refine by that value doesn't bring the result.
Any ideas how to solve?

CFUPDATE problem with field name beginning with a number

I have a form (actually several) that is gathering data for a survey. I tried to use cfupdate to update the data elements and got a string index out of range error. I tested again without the form fields that began with numbers and it worked just fine. I then tried to enclose the offending field names in () and []. Both times I got same error. Does anyone have a work around for this? The code and error are below.
Changing the field names is not really an option. This survey has almost 400 data points and most of the fields begin with the question number.
Thanks

I think you have run one of CFUPDATE's limitations. I am not 100% certain, but I do not think cfupdate provides a way to escape invalid column names like yours. In which case you may need to do a regular UPDATE within a cfquery instead... or rename your columns.
fields that began with numbers
Most databases discourage creating column names that start with a number (or other restricted characters). While many databases will allow you to escape invalid names, it is simpler all around to avoid them altogether. Otherwise, you may have to escape the names in every single query. The recommendations vary, but usually object names that begin with a letter, and contain only letters, numbers and underscores are considered safe.
This survey has almost 400 data points and most of the fields begin with the question number.
Four-hundred (400) is a lot of columns for a single table. The fact that they all them seem to contain the same type of information (ie response to a question) is an indication that data should probably be stored in a separate table, as rows, not columns. For example questions could be stored in one table, possible answers in another, and the results of an individual test/survey stored in a third table. A structure like that is much easier to query, can easily accommodate changes (add/remove questions, responses, etcetera) without having modify the table every time.

Report file name error with Chinese Date format

Hello,
I am seeing an error at
step Write UUT report in the standard model files. This step is
calling the API method save on the object Runstate.Report.
The issue occurs on computers using chinese localization with the date in the report file name.
Is this a known issue? Is there a way to modify the filename before calling the above method to eliminate the problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

An Error Message is attached.
WE have seen this on both Vista and XP. We are using TestStand version 4.1.1. I am not sure about the localization, but I have seen this on computers from Taiwan, Korea and Japan.
If I put a breakpoint in the Model file at the Write UUT Report Step, you can see Chinese Characters in the time portion of the file name.
If you change the report name to not include the time and date, the error does not occur.
We have seen this with ASCII and xml. With XML, the error also occurs at the step "Add Root Tags to XML Report"

APPEND
INTO TABLE trace_metals
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(station_no,
metal_name,

File name issues with Relocated Masters

I am relocating Master Images from my Managed Aperture Library on my internal disk to a Referenced Library on an external hard drive. Everything in my efforts has run smoothly, except the names of the files that are showing up in my referenced folders on the external drive.
I am setting a folder hierarchy, and this is working fine. For the file names, I am choosing the Version Name. This is where I am having a problem. Only some of the images are relocating with the Version Name. The others are relocating with the Master File Name instead.
Why won't my images transfer over with the names that I am instructing Aperture to transfer them as?

How are you connecting to the server? Using Windows file sharing with an "smb" connection? Or does the server have file services for Macintosh enabled so you're connecting with an "afp" address? Do you see these file names in the Finder? Or are you seeing it the open/save dialog boxes in your Adobe programs?
We have lots of Macs at the office (most have 10.4.x but we're moving to 10.5.x) and we share Adobe files from Windows 2003 servers without a problem seeing the correct file names. So, I don't think you should have a problem like that.

Dynamic file Name generation

Hi Experts,
i have the requirement
I need to extract some records from Database (Scenario is Database to file) and we need to put it into file.
then i need to change the file name based on certain conditions and send it to relevent file server which are globally located across the world.
My Doubts are :-
1- After extracting the records from Database From where i can get file name?? Can i get the file name from SXMB_MONI. If yes then How??
2- Now I got the file name then i need to change this file name into different file names (Dynamically) based on some conditions to send it to different file servers. Can i do it in my mapping Or i need to write a module for it.??
Thanks in Advance
Regards Prajwal

Hi Naluvala,
Based upon your condition you can directly set the file name using this UDF:
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
    .getTransformationParameters()
    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
    u201Chttp://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Fileu201D,
    u201CFileNameu201D);
String valueOld = conf.get(key);
if (valueOld != null) {
    String valueNew = valueOld.replaceAll(u201Cinputu201D,u201Doutputu201D);
    conf.put(key, valueNew);
Instead of using get function to populate the valueOld, you can use your own logic.
Regards,
Sanjeev.
