Find a specific word in a directory

Hi Folks:
I am trying to develop a apps, with the following functionality:
To find for a specific word, like S010101, into a specific directory, saying something like: c:\Docs.
And return, the number of ocurrences or, true if the string was found into a directory files or the name of the files wich include the string.....
Can be possible with Oracle Forms or maybe with webtoolkit or with java and forms implementation?
any ideas?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi Francois:
Maybe I am trying to do something wrong, so let me give you a picture about my requirements and see if what I'm trying to do is on the rigth way.
In my work, we have 4 environments: DEV, SYS, PRE and PROD. All of them has its own Schema and Objects, which are the same but they can have [and it is usual] different data stored.
And, for every environment we have a migration directory with a tree like this:
M:\\Apps\Request\S0001\DB\S0001_db.zip
M:\\Apps\Request\S0002\DB\S0002_db.zip
M:\\Apps\Request\S0003\DB\S0003_db.zip
................. and so far.
Those zip files can have a sql files with a scripts which creates, modify, database objects and, the main issue, creates a customize user errors like: USR-xxxxx, VTM-xxxxx.
As I wrote before, we have four environments, and I need to have track of which user errors codes are created and which one are available to use.
By example, in DEV, the last user error code is USR-0005. If one of my developer need to generated the next user error code, he can select the max code where error type like USR. But maybe, another developer can generate the next user error code, in this case USR-0006. The developer team will not know where is the last error code generated, unless it find into the migration directory inside all of the zip files to see if exist in one of them, the insert for the next error code.
I was thinking to develope a automatic ganeration form, where the developer, press a button. See the last error code and next error code related to a error type [USR, VTM].
And then, press another button, select the migration directory [DEV, SYS or PRE] and find the string "USR-xxxxx" only in the qms_message.sql only in the _db.zip in the migration directory and all its sub directories.
I am not sure If I am explain myself properly.
Thanks a lot and any help, I will appreciated.

How to find a specific word in sentence in each line?

How to find a specific word in sentence in each line and output will show start from the beginning from specific word plus with small description from each sentence?
For example: I need to find a "+Wednesday+" and "+Thursday+" word in each sentence by line by line from "myfile.txt".
Go ballet class next Wednesday.
On the Wednesday is going to swim class.
We have a meeting on Thursday at Panda's.
Then it will show the output:
Wednesday : ballet class
Wednesday : swim class
Thursday: meeting at Panda's
I am going to figure out in Java console to read from a file for specific word from each line and how to make it output in correct way. I know already to make input/file codes.

I got it and understand much better. Thank you very much. There is a problem with it because I knew how to make
a specific word in sentence but how I should make Output for specific word and some words from sentence.
For example:
Input:
+"On Thursday go to ballet class"+
+"Swim class on Friday one time a month at 2 p.m."+
I used the codes for that:
class FindSchedule{
     String firstline = "On Thursday go to ballet class ";
     String secondline = "Swim class on Friday one time a month ";
     FindSchedule(){
          System.out.println(firstline + findTheIndex("Thursday", firstline));
          System.out.println(secondline + findTheIndex("Friday", secondline));
     public int findTheIndex(String word, String sentence){
          int index;
          index = sentence.indexOf(word);
          return index;
     public static void main (String[] args){
          new FindSchedule();
}The output will be:
Thursday: ballet class
Friday: 14:00 swim class one time a week
Notice that time is changing in output complete different from input.
I need to find out how to extract some words from each sentence for output. Do you know how to do it?

Need to find a specific word in a Text Field

I have a text field and I need to be able to perform a function if that field contains (not equals) the word "Excel". Textfield contains the word Excel

Hi,
you can use a regular expression for this task.

How to find a specific word (from a list) in a sentence located in a different table, and build a column that contains the name

Hi all,
I have 2 tables:
1) Lookup table- "Names"- which contains ID# and product description (~100 names that can change).
2) Data table- "Data"- which contains a column with sentences and within lies also the description. In addition, there is a quantity column.
Example:
Names table-
ID
Name
1 Glass
2 Paper
3 Alum'
4 Metal for construction
100 Hydro therapy products
And Data table-
Description
Qty
Someone went to use the machine. 1.80 cm, Alum', for the rest of the day
6
Metal for construction is the major component in our system

*there is no order where the lookup value can be found in the sentence*
My purpose is to import the Data table while performing a calculation, that <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="1941bde7-1595-40eb-9d64-c2e3b9fabdef" id="b60549fc-5b92-46ea-abc6-72cc8c4c093b">checks</gs>
for each row what is the suitable lookup value and then add it to a new column "Name".
Meaning, this table should be the new data after import:
<gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="f5d9da98-3ff6-4022-920d-8965a15730ee" id="580f945f-7822-4035-9b5b-542c74eff605">Description</gs>

Hi Amit,
I updated the file. The solution uses the following query formula:
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="DataTbl"]}[Content],
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each IndexTbl),
#"Expand Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom", {"Scope"}, {"Scope"}),
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Expand Custom", each Text.Contains([Description], [Scope])),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Filtered Rows", {"Topic", "Component Code", "Project", "Date", "TotalQty", "TotalQtyActual", "ID", "SOW #", " SOW#(lf)Rev", "Scope Driver", "Scope Source", "Scope Source #", "Cost Code", "Type", "Bdg", "System Code", "IMF Number", "IMF Description", "WG", "C or NC", "C/e", "LLE", "Dwg Ref", "Comments ", "Description", "Size", "Qty", "Unit", "Materials Cost/Unit ", "Sub-Total per Unit €", "Unit Rate ", "Total", "DIV Code", "SYS Code", "HelperForDynfilter"}, {{"Scope", each Text.Combine([Scope], " | "), type text}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"
It is based on two queries. The first is the import from table of "IndexTbl", the second is the import of "DataTbl' which is then extended according to the expression above.
Hope this helps.

How to find a specific text(string) in a list (100) programs

How do you find a table that doesn't have a specific word in it.

I have two questions.
questions 1
How do you find a table that doesn't have a specific word in it by using a query on the whole database?
questions 2
How would i list all of my cars names in my database not showing duplicates?
I have tried, tried and tried some more to get both of these, but I guess i don't know how to query a specific word.
I also don't know how to query everything in just 1 column name.
If anyone could help with these that would be great I have been trying queries for over an hour now and no luck.
Thanks

I tried the all_tab_columns, just like you did it, however that just gives me the column name I am looking for what is not in a column.
For example I need to find all the tables where mustang is not = 'red' but using a single query i need to find all of the tables.
As for number 2
I am looking for something like this
select distinct column_name
from all_tab_columns
where column_name ='AcertainColumn';Now I'm even more confused. In your example, is MUSTANG a column name? Or is it the value of a MODEL column in the CARS table? And how could that possibly relate to something that exists in multiple tables?
If your data model is at all reasonable, I would expect that you would just want
SELECT *
FROM cars
WHERE model = 'Mustang'
AND color != 'Red'but I can't see how this would relate to data stored in multiple tables.

                                          }What is wrong with it because I tried to find "every Tuesday" in
myfile.txt: "Go fishing every Tuesday and every Wednesday"
There is big problem with split statement because it takes each word not more than a word.
I need to have "every Tuesday" not "Tuesday". How to make it correct codes?

I am going to give you a picture of how the output will look.
Here are two sentences from myfile.txt:
Go fishing every Tuesday and every Wednesday
Meet with research students on Thursday
I need to read from myfile.txt and to find specific words in each sentences like this output:
Every Tuesday : Go fishing
Every Wednesday : Go fishing
Thursday : Meet with research students
Ok. make sense? Now I am trying to figure out how to find specific words in each sentence from myfile.txt.
That is why I have difficult with the splits statement and loops. Like this:
     public static String findTheIndex(String sentence){
          String result = "";
          String[] s = sentence.split("\\s");
          for (String s1: s){
               for (String s2: days){
                    if (s1.equalsIgnoreCase(s2)) {
                         if(s2.matches("every Tuesday")){
                         }else if(s2.matches("every Wednesday")){
                         }else if(s2.matches("Thursday")){
                         }else{
                              System.out.println("That sentence is not working");
          return result;
}So look at the "Thursday" it is working the output because I have split statement to give me only one word not more than
a word in sentence. So there is big problem with more than a word in sentence like this "every Tuesday" and it won't work at all because of split. Could you please help me how to do that? I appreciated for that help. Thanks.

Need help to find GPOs with a specific word

Hi Experts,<o:p></o:p>
In my environment, we have 500+ GPOs and I have been asked to find the GPOs with a specific word like "dns". I believe powershell is the better way to find my requirement and I
am in KG standard in Powersell :(<o:p></o:p>
Thanks
Sajoor

Get-GPO (From the GroupPolicy module) doesn't allow for wildcards in the -Name parameter, so the best you can do with that cmdlet is something like this:
Get-Gpo -All | Where {
$_.DisplayName -match 'dns'

Finding a specific directory

Does anyone know how to find a specific directory on a users computer, knowing only the directory name? I know how to find a directory and stuff if I know the full path of it, but I don't know how to find it, if I don't know the full path, just the name..
Can anyone please help?

I don't know if this is a stupid idea or not, but I'm wanting to create a small program that deletes the temporary internet files, cookies and stuff like that...Sort of like DiskCleanup..
Right now I'm doing it via command line..
I'll post the source code, but it's not nearly finished...and I'm having problems with a few parts.
Here is how I am thinking I should do it: First I would have to find the root directory like c,a,d,e, but the problem with this, is theres probably cd drives and stuff on the users computer...So to start out with, how do you find out the root directory?
See, here is how I'm trying to find the root directory, but it doesn't work...
     for (char dirs='a'; dirs >= 'z'; dirs++)
          File path = new File(dirs + ":/");
               if (path.isDirectory())
                    startingPath = path;
                    System.out.println(startingPath.toString());
     return startingPath;
   }

Find specific word in MS Word, copy containing paragraph, paste to Excel

Hi, I'm a complete newbie to programming and scripting, and I searched a bunch of forums for this question and found something similar, but never the full answer neither for automator nor Applescript.
Please help me do this kind of operation.
1.Search a 200-page MS Word document for a specific word.
2.Select the whole paragraph containing the word and copy it to clipboard.
3.Paste this paragraph to Excel document(the next cell in the column)
Basically, I need to analyze the mood of the paragraph with mentioned word in a massive of irrelevant info. And I want to get a nice column in Excel so I could filter all the useless information.
Please help me create this script and/or give me some links where I can read something similar.
Thanks in advance.

Hello, I'm also a total newbie to scripting (started about a week ago).
I tried to work out how to do what you asked using my very limited knowledge and managed to create a script that it very long and clumsy and only works half the time. I'm not certain it does exactly what you want either..
set x to text returned of (display dialog "What word would you like to search for?" default answer "")
tell application "Microsoft Word"
activate
tell application "System Events"
set CR to ASCII character of 13
keystroke "f" using command down
keystroke x & CR
delay 1
keystroke "w" using command down
delay 1
key code 126 using {command down, shift down}
delay 1
keystroke "c" using command down
delay 1
end tell
tell application "TextEdit"
activate
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "n" using command down
keystroke "v" using command down
tell application "Microsoft Word"
activate
tell application "System Events"
key code 125 using {command down, shift down}
delay 1
keystroke "c" using command down
end tell
tell application "TextEdit"
activate
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "v" using command down
keystroke "a" using command down
keystroke "c" using command down
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
activate
delay 3
tell application "System Events"
set CR to ASCII character of 13
keystroke "v" using command down
CR
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
Haha I doubt that helps but I felt like trying anyway...
Other stuff:
When the dialog box comes up at the beginning, for some reason it wont run the script properly if you press enter so you have to actually click continue.
Also I made it copy to TextEdit instead of clipboard as I cant seem to find that on my computer.
I hope someone with more knowledge than me comes along soon!

 }This program counting specific word (entered by keyboard) in file.txt.
I need to make this program: for ex.: if I enter word: One It must show:
Word One repeated 3 times by John, Elisa, AlbertAll what I need to elect by who this word repeated. But I don't know really how to make It, maybe LinkedList or I dont know, someone could help me?
Thank you very much.

or I dont know, someone could help me?You need to introduce a variable to store the actual name which must be resetted if an empty line is found and then gets assigned the verry next word in the file.

How to highlight specific words in the Reader

Hi!
I am new to the Acrobat SDK and could need some guidance on how to solve the following problem:
I need a plug-in that is able to highlight specific words in a pdf file (e.g. by underlining it or changing the background color) and offers a context menu with futher actions when the user clicks on a highlighted word. The first step would be searching the text to find the word that should be marked. I think that should not be that hard but how can I highlight specific words? I first thought of annotations but I need it in the Reader and I should not change the pdf file itself (just the view of it).
The idea is similar to the skype plug-in for Firefox or IE. The skype plug-in highlights phone numbers. We need to highlight specific words.
Thanks for every hint on how to achieve this!
Fabian

>The documentation says that AVPageViewHilightText is supposed to use >the current color set with AVPageViewSetColor - so it should work. >What version of Acrobat are you working with?
Yes that how understood the documentation too. I tried the following:
//Define red
red.space = PDDeviceRGB;
red.value[0] = ASInt32ToFixed(1);
red.value[1] = 0;
red.value[2] = 0;
// highlight
AVPageViewSetColor(pageView, &red);
PDTextSelect pdTextSelect = PDDocCreateTextSelect(pdDoc, pageNum, &bbox);
AVPageViewHighlightText(pageView, pdTextSelect);
I am using Acrobat 7.0.9.
>Drawing an image would be done with AVPageViewDrawCosObj

Oh I should have seen that. Thanks for the hint!!
>Interesting, there should be a way to get transparency,
> but I am not seeing it at the moment.
As far as I understood it, it is possible to set the color to transparent but thats not what I am looking for. I would like to have a way of changing the alpha channel of the color.
Thanks!

Has anyone tried creating a plugin that you can type in a specific word, and if it comes up in the very top of the page (i think its refered to as the header) it closes the page or tab automatically?

Has anyone tried creating a plugin that you can type in a specific word, and if it comes up in the very top of the page (i think its refered to as the header) it closes the page or tab automatically? there is a program called POW! by AnalogX that does this, but its only good for IE. And Im a Firefox man. Can anyone look into this or maybe create a plugin that does what POW! does for IE? I will donate to the creater of a plugin that does that. Im so sick of pop ups that most pop up blockers miss.

The Firefox pop-up blocker is very effective. If you are getting a lot of pop-ups in Firefox, you may have picked up some Malware that is causing those pop-ups.

Add xml tag to specific words in a text frame

Dear all,
I'm pretty sure this can't be too much of a hassle, but after hours of experimenting, searching and reading I can't seem to look at it from the right angle. I'm trying to find a way to search for a specific word ('Figure', in my case) in a given text frame, and add a corresponding XML tag to it automatically. I've found plenty of information on how to apply it to a page item as a whole, but from there no approach seems to work. Seeing as I'm fairly new to InDesign scripting, any nudge in the right direction would be an immense help.
Kind regards and thanks in advance,
Julian

Hi Julian,
Is this you asking?
var doc = app.activeDocument;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "figure";
var found = doc.findText();
for(var i =0;i<found.length;i++)
doc.xmlElements[0].xmlElements.add({markupTag:"figure", xmlContent:found[i]});
Regards,
Chinna
