Find and replace error when member is N/A

I am loading metadata from an Oracle view into Planning using ODI. I have members N/A that need to be replaced with another member in the outline. I am using the following language:
CASE HYP.COST_CENTER_CD WHEN ‘N/A’ THEN ‘No Entity US’ END
This replaces ALL members within that column with blank ' ' and therefore all entries are kicking out. Is there a conflict with a / in ODI? Is there other language I can use?

Hi,
I take it you are adding new members as you can't rename members directly, you can delete members and then reload new members. This has always been the case for all adaptors e.g. HAL, DIM, Outline Loader and ODI with planning
I am not totally sure what you are trying to do in your case statement as that will replace all N/A members and not just one from your source, then it will try and add it to the outline, you would have to add some more logic if you want it just to effect one member, remember it is only SQL that is being generated.
If it is a rename you need to do then you will have to have one interface that deletes the members, then one interface that adds the new members, but you will have to think about your essbase data as you are deleting and adding so data can be lost if you don't come up with an integration to remap the data.

Dreamweaver CC generates one of 3 error messages when using find and replace on Win 8.1 64 bit.

Dreamweaver CC generates one of 3 error messages when using find and replace is used more than twice in succession. "While executing onLoad in bc_afterSave.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred: At line 188 of file C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe|Adobe DreamweaverCC|Configuration|Shared|BC\JS\bc_sites.js": out of memory"
or
While executing runCommand in File_Save.htm, a JavaScript erroroccurred.
or
While exciting getDynamicContent inAdressURL.htm, a Javascript erroroccirred.
Any thoughts - I end up closing DWCC and reopening. Will work for two additional Find and Replace before the error messaged\s popup again.

Thanks Jon. I tried all of those solutions before posting. Same problem. It seems that the problem is tied to DWCC. Do not have the problem when using DW6 on Win8.1. When running DWCC on a Win7 pc, we get the same error message. When running DW6 on Win 7, f&c works fine. It seems to be a bug in DWCC. DWCC works flawlessly on our Macs.
The same steps apply to DWCC, you just need to choose the CC folders rather than the DWCS4-6 versions that the page talks about. The layout of CC's folders hasn't changed from the older versions which is why, I think, Adobe hasn't updated the troubleshooting page as of yet.
As Nancy mentions, a 38,500 page site is sort of ridiculously large for a static website, that could be part of the problem, but your response quoted above leads me to think you may have tried the troubleshooting steps in the wrong version of the program. Could you confirm that?

Find and replace in files does not refresh when changes are made

Using RH10, I search for a term with the Find and Replace Options pod. I use the Find Results list as a reference only, and open each file from the Topic List. I do this instead of opening the topics from the Find Results tab because I want to see the WYSIWYG changes. Anyway, I make my edits and delete the search term from each topic. Then, to make sure I have done all the work, I run the search again. I expect to see no or at least fewer matches than before, but I still get some or all of the same results as before, even though I double-check the Design and HTML views of the topics and even check the source of a topic separately in Notepad, all indicating that the search term is gone from the topic.
There is some ridiculous lingering or echo going on. I make sure to select Look in: <Current Project>, and the paths of all the Find Results files are fine. How do you refresh the search so that this echo doesn't occur?
Also, I close the Find and Replace Options pod, reopen it and start the search again, and the same results are there.

Hi there
To avoid the message about the file being modified, close all topics in the editor before commencing with any find and replace operations. The message is produced because you have the aforementioned topics open in the editor.
As you mention "Find and replace in files", I'm guessing you are referring to version 8. I just opened version 8 and performed a find and replace to confirm. There is a button allowing you to clear all.
On the clicking and dragging to create a link, it's never worked that way. You simply cannot drag from the Topic List pod to do it. But you can from the Project Manager pod. Perhaps you should consider submitting a Wish Form to ask for the ability to click and drag from the Topic List pod to create links.
As far as rearranging your topics into different folders, as long as you do it from inside RoboHelp you shouldn't be destroying any links. RoboHelp will update references for you as you move things around. The only issue is if you are automatically creating your TOC structure based on the project structure. But usually that's a one time shot. From there forward you just manage things using the TOC editor.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

Dreamweaver CS5 out of memory when trying to find and replace

Please help. I am running Dreamweaver CS5 on a windows 7 os. This has happened in previous versions as well. This is a new computer and a new install. There are no memory shortages on this machine.
I go to search for something, and select either folder or files in current site. It starts, then flashes the "out of memory" dialog box and stops the search. I have to force quit to leave the program.Over and over. Find and replace of a site or folder is a crucial function I use this program for!
Thanks for any help

How big are the combined files in your Local Site folder?
My guess is that you have something really colossal such as server log files or something else that are causing DW to choke and freeze during its Find / Replace scan.
If you can identify the really huge files/folders in your site folder, you could use 'cloaking' to exclude them from DW operations.

Folder action to find and replace text and change line feeds

I want to use a folder action to find and replace text and change Mac carriage returns to DOS line feeds inside text files.
The text to be replaced is: "/Users/wim/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Music" (without the quotes)
This text has to be removed (i.e. replaced by an empty string)
The text occurs many times within each file.
The files are playlists exported from iTunes in the M3U format (which are text files). They contain Mac carriage returns. These need to be changed to DOS line feeds.
I have found the following two perl commands to achieve this:
To find and replace text: perl -pi -w -e 's/THIS/THAT/g;' *.txt
To change carriage returns to line feeds: perl -i -pe 's/\015/\015\012/g' mac-file
I know that it's possible to make a folder action with Automator that executes a shell script.
What I want to do is drop the exported playlists in M3U format in a folder so that the folder action will remove the right text and change the carriage returns.
My questions are:
Is it possible to make a folder action that executes command line commands instead of shell scripts?
What is the correct syntax for the two commands when used in a folder action shell script? Especially, how do I escape the slashes (/) in the string to be removed?
Thanks for your help

Ok, I've include an applescript to run a shell command. The applesript command quoted form makes a string that will end up as a single string on the bash command line. Depending on what you want to do, you may need multiple string on the bash command lines. I've included some information on folder actions.
It is easier to diagnose problems with debug information. I suggest adding log statements to your script to see what is going on. Here is an example.
    Author: rccharles
    For testing, run in the Script Editor.
      1) Click on the Event Log tab to see the output from the log statement
      2) Click on Run
    For running shell commands see:
    http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html
on run
    -- Write a message into the event log.
    log " --- Starting on " & ((current date) as string) & " --- "
    -- debug lines
    set desktopPath to (path to desktop) as string
    log "desktopPath = " & desktopPath
    set unixDesktopPath to POSIX path of desktopPath
    log "unixDesktopPath = " & unixDesktopPath
    set quotedUnixDesktopPath to quoted form of unixDesktopPath
    log "quoted form is " & quotedUnixDesktopPath
    try
        set fromUnix to do shell script "ls -l " & quotedUnixDesktopPath
        display dialog "ls -l of " & quotedUnixDesktopPath & return & fromUnix
    on error errMsg
        log "ls -l error..." & errMsg
    end try
end run
How to set up a folder action.
1) right click on folder. click on Enable folder actions
2) Place script in
/Library/Scripts/Folder Actions Scripts
3) right click on folder. click on attach folder action
pick your script.
Create a new folder on the desktop & try.
You can put multiple folder actions on a folder. There are other ways of doing this.
Here is my test script:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving dropped_items

VBA Word Find and Replace characters but excluding certain characters

I am trying to write VBA code in Word that I will eventually run from a VBA Excel module. The aim of the project is to find specific strings in the open Word document that have length of either one or two characters and are of a certain format, and replace
them with other strings in the same format. This is to do with transposing (i.e. changing the musical key) of chord symbols in a songsheet in Word. The Find and Replace strings are contained in ranges in an Excel workbook, which is why I want to eventually
run the code from Excel. I'm much more experienced in writing VBA code in Excel than in Word, and I'm fairly confident with transferring the 'Word VBA' code into an Excel module.
At the moment I'm trying out code entirely in Word, and I've come across a stumbling block. For example, I want it to Find "A" and replace with "B",
BUT only if the "A" is NOT followed by "#" (sharp) or "b" (flat).
Here is the code I've got in Word VBA, which I obtained by editing code produced by the recorder:
Sub F_R()
'Find text must have specific font
With Selection.Find.Font
.Bold = True
.Underline = wdUnderlineWords
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
End With
'Replacement text must have specific font
With Selection.Find.Replacement.Font
.Bold = True
.Underline = wdUnderlineWords
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
End With
'Find & Replace strings
With Selection.Find
.Text = "A" 'hard-coded here for testing, but this will
'eventually be referenced to a cell in Excel
.Replacement.Text = "B" 'hard-coded here for testing, but this will
'eventually be referenced to a cell in Excel
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Format = True
.MatchCase = True
.MatchWholeWord = False
End With
Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End Sub
For the Find & Replace section I want to do something like:
With Selection.Find
.Text = "A"
.Text <> "A#"
.Text <> "Ab"
.Replacement.Text = "B"
End With
- but this produces a syntax error, presumably because you can have only one .Text line (or it won't accept <>?)
I tried adopting the way of excluding chars when using the Like operator, and while it compiles, it will not replace
any "A":
With Selection.Find
.Text = "A[!b#]"
.Replacement.Text = "B"
End With
I suspect that I'm going to have to change tack completely in the way I'm doing this. Do you have any suggestions, please?
The chord names/symbols are preceded/succeeded by either spaces or paragraph returns and can look like these, for example (all Font Bold and Underlined words only):
C7
Dm7
Eb-5
Bb+11
F#m7
i.e. [ABCDEFG][b # | optional][m |optional][- + | superscript, optional][2 3
5 6 7 9 11 13 | superscript, optional]
The crux of my problem is that the note A should be treated as entirely distinct from Ab or A# (and similar for other flattened/sharpened notes).
Sorry for long post.

How to create mail merge(feature in word) in adobe pdf and programmatically find and replace these t

I am very new to adobe.I am required to do the following and am very confused.The scenario is as follows:
I am required to create a letter template (using adobe designer) where name and few other details will be tags(which needs to be replaced by actual values according to the particular customer later on).We can create such a feature in word using mail merge feature available there.How do we do the same in pdf??Can it be done using adobe designer 7.0???If so,how?
After I create this template,I am required to write a javascript or a VB program to access this pdf template and find and replace these tags with the actual values and generate a pdf document.Somebody told me that this is to be done using adobe document server(ADS). Can this be done??If so,how?If not what is the alternative product in adobe?
There are so many adobe products that i am totally at sea and not able to figure out which to use and how.
Please help me at the very earliest.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Sowmya

Let me thank u for a prompt reply but I guess I still need ur help before I accomplish what I set out to do.
As per your reply I used Forms API in my vb program and it is accessing the fields but I am not able to change the property of the fields.
I created the pdf form using adobe designer 7.0 and have created a floating field which I want to populate using my code.This is invisible in the pdf template but I when I set the value for it using vb code I need to change its property to visible.
But when I try to change the "NoViewFlag" property, I get an error as follows:
Runtime error'-2147220988(80040204)
Document's Security Settings prohibit the operation being performed
Please give your suggestions.
2.Another question is how do I differentiate floating text field and ordinary text field in vb code because the type of both is displayed as text ??
Thanks again.
regards,
Sowmya
I am putting my code below for ur viewing.

Dreamweaver cs3 international edition crashes while "Find and Replace"

When i try to perform Find and Replace in Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
the program halts and crashes everytime.

Mr David Powers thank you for your quick,
sorry to say but
the link did not work for me.
i am so ashamed to use a program that crashes while doing a simple "search and replace" action! which i had paid more than 900$.
and also it is so interesting that adobe has released new version CS4 instead of updating the buggy CS3. so the ppl who bought CS3 are dumped!
here i attach the crash error dump file that Dreamweaver creates in its configuration directory.
http://rapidshare.com/files/230314270/Dreamweaver_crash_log.mdmp
i hope it helps to diagnose and SEARCH and REPLACE the BUG.

Need advanced "Find and Replace" method

I have bunch of pages need "Find and Replace" work in html

it. Here's the sample code:

You can see I need to use EVERY highlighted code to replace
each NEXT bolded code, highlighted code are deffirent but bolded
code are the same. Now I just do it manually, but there are
thousands of them.
Is any one has a better method using DW's "Find and Replace"
function to do this job automatically?

Using Templates with a 900 page site is a crime against
humanity. You reach
the optimal size for Templates between about 50 and 100.
The error you are getting suggests that there are coding
errors on the page
(perhaps even unrelated to ANY DW Template markup). We'd need
to see the
page to make progress with what that might be, as Alan says.

How can I create an action that uses "Find and replace"?

Hi there,
I'm trying to create an action that will use "Find and replace" to change certain words and phrases in my .psd-files. These are words and phrases I change a lot (I'm translating emails and website banners) and I would like to speed up that process using actions.
When I tried to create the action I got the error message "The object "in contents of all text layers" is not currently available".
Then I tried "insert menu items" and chose "Find and replace" and then did my change, but then it stopped when the FAR-window popped up. That's what I want to skip, so it just changes my words and phrases that I want.
Is this possible?
Best,
Carl

Anyway, in the Script in that other thread the function replaceText takes two Strings, so something like
function main () {
var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
replaceText ("replace this", "with this")
would be a possibility.

Bsp find and replace tag

Hi,
I want to know how to use find and replace tag of BSP.Actually my requirement is onchange of value in Input field i want to calculate somthing.Can any body help me.

This looks pretty weird in coding ^^
I would solve this issue with javascript only:

var timer = null;
function startT imer(){
   if(timer != null){
      window. clear'Timeout(timer);
   timer = window. set'Timeout("timerTick()", 3000);
function timerTick(){
   // calculate whatever you want
When the user enters something in the myInputField a timer is startet. As soon as no key is hit for a minimum of 3 seconds, the calculation is done.
I had to add the ' to the javascript functions because I get an error from the forum without...

Find and replace smart quotes with straight quotes?

I understand I can turn off smart quotes so that I can type straight quotes, but I need to replace hundreds of curly smart quotes with straight quotes, is there a feature that will let me do this? I am using FM8.
Thanx,
Willian

I am using FM9....so I don't know if the same shortcuts apply, but this is what I found out last week.
Use the Find and Replace tool:
With smart quotes turned off and the Num Lock key turned on:
Alt0147 will give you beginning quotation marks
Alt0148 will give you ending quotation marks
In the Find box use ALT0147 or ALT0148 for the beginning or ending quotes. When you click in the box and type
one of the shortcuts the correct quote will be shown in the box.
In the replace box type the regular straight quotes on your keyboard.
I was thrilled that it would work!...course you do have to do them separately and be careful not to replace the curly quotes
that you want to leave in your document.
Hope this helps using FM8....

How do I find and replace text in PHP files?

How can I in CS3 make sitewide changes to the text in PHP pages without changing variable names etc that have the same name?
For example if I have an installation of a PHP forum and I want to change every instance of the word 'forum' to 'message board'...
If I used the 'inside tag' search with " as the tag, then if "" contained a variable called 'forum' it would also be changed and therefore corrupt the code....
Is there a simple way around this?
Thanks!
I'm using CS3 on Windows Vista.

It looks like you're trying to find and replace source code, so you may be able to look at the various places that are looked at when finding and uncheck the ones that don't apply.
But, if it's all source code then that won't help. One thing that may work is to expand the search option - for example if the work "forum" that you're wanting to change it preceded by another word, or character or something that sets it apart, then do you find on that. You can expand that search phrase as far out in either direction that you need to to make it different, if of course that is practical in your situation.
The only other way I can think of is to somehow create an exception rule, but I'm not sure if that's possible or how to do it.

Dumb Q: problem with Find And Replace window in Flash 8

Dear Flash Group,
apologies if this is trivial, it's my first day using Flash.
I downloaded a Flash project from
http://www.flashorb.com/articles/benchmark_files/flash-benchmark.zip.
This
flash calls into a web service at localhost:8080. I used the
'Find and
Replace' window within Flash Professional 8 to locate the
string
'localhost:8080' and replaced it with plain 'localhost'.
However, when I 'Debug the Movie' (Ctrl-Shift-Enter), it
still tries to
access port 8080! Obsiously, my replace command did not do
what I thought it
would do. I opened the FLA file in a binary editor, and saw 4
more
references to 8080, One if them in 'Properties' of a
WebServicesConnector,
but I cannot figure out how to find the other occurences.
Checking on google, I see lots of people having similar
problems, but no
solutions
Any ideas?
Regards, /george
PS. What do you guys do for code completion - is there a tool
that would
bring Flash on par with an professional IDE?

Agreed.

Might they be the result of that WebServicesConnector
reference?
> Checking on google, I see lots of people having
> similar problems, but no solutions
That's really odd, actually. I'm on these boards every day,
and I've
never heard of this issue. I don't *think* the Find/Replace
dialog visits
panel contents, such as the Component Inspector panel, but I
wouldn't swear
to that.
> What do you guys do for code completion - is there
> a tool that would bring Flash on par with an
professional IDE?
Well, Flash is a professional IDE, of course. By definition,
if you pay
for something, you have acquired a professional product or
service. I know
what you mean, though. Flash itself rocks, but the Actions
panel can be
glaringly weak. Personally, I use SE|PY to edit ActionScript.
