Fixed lenght file and row separator

Hi experts.
Im using open data set and close datd set commands to create a text file in background.
It is separated by comma.when a field is blank it just displays , , .
I want the file to be a fixed length file. I want to see as many spaces as the length on the field if it is initial.
Also i see a smaal box as the row separator. I want a new line separator ( ASCII char) as the row separator.
Any suggestions ?
Thank You
Radhika.

Hi,
Instead of assigning the work area to file, use MOVE command :
gt_file = gt_data. " Comment this line
Move gt_data to gt_file. " Add this line
Use cl_abap_char_utilities=>NEWLINE for line seaparator.
Best regards,
Prashant

Prasing a huge Fixed lenght file

Hi All,
I have a requirement to parse a fixed lenght file which is of size 100MB. I have 1.7 million records in that file where each and every record is of length 41. When I am trying to load the file using the LineNumberReader and using the substring it's throwing java.lang.OutMemoryError. I tried with the -Xmx1500M, it's the same.
I am thinking a way that I read a chunk of data from the file and parse it, read the next chunk parse it etc... Is there a way like this in java 1.5 or 1.6? I heared about the nio package in JDK1.5. I am looking at it If that can helpful to me.
If any body have an idea or best practice how can we deal huge fixed lenght files in java, please suggest me.
Thank you.

WPF: How to make the Column and Row separator more wide and different color in datagrid?

Our application uses WPF.
One of request is make the DataGrid column separator and row separator more wide and use different color and remove original black separator of rows and columns.
Which template we need to modify to make it? Thx!
JaneC

Hi Magnus,
Thanks for replying our question and provide your suggestions!
Now we know modify both HorizontalGridLinesBrush and VerticalGridLinesBrush we can change the DataGrid cell separator color.
Following your suggested, we modify the DataGridCell as following:
<Style x:Key="Body_Content_DataGrid_Centering"
TargetType="{x:Type DataGridCell}">
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="2,0" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type DataGridCell}">
<Border BorderThickness="2" BorderBrush="{StaticResource PageBorderBackground}" Margin="-1">
<Grid Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" VerticalAlignment="Center" Height="42">
<ContentPresenter VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Grid>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<Style x:Key="DataGridStyle1" TargetType="{x:Type DataGrid}">
<Setter Property="HorizontalGridLinesBrush" Value="{x:Null}"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalGridLinesBrush" Value="{x:Null}"/>

Can I use OWB to convert a fix-delimitted file to a csv file?

Hi! anyone tried this before? source file is in fixed-length file and target should be a csv file.
thanks in advance,
carlo
OWB 10r2

It's quite simple.
1.Generate 2 file objects in the OWB design that represent the 2 files. One configured as fixed-length, the other as csv.
2. Design an external table based on your input file object
3. Design a mapping that maps from the external table into the 2nd (csv) file object
4. Configure file names as desired
5. Deploy external table, connector(s) and mapping to DB
6. Execute the mapping
There you go...

Problem with RSCRM_BAPI (extraction to Fixed Lenght txt file)

Hi Experts,
I have a question about a RSCRM_BAPI limitation:
I want to extract a Query, using this transaction, to a fixed lenght .txt file. The query has a tabular structure like this:
CHARACT1 | CHARACT2 | CHARACT3 | CHARACT4 | KEYFIG_MONTH1 | KEYFIG_MONTH2 | .... | KEYFIG_MONTH12.
so i have a tabular structure with some CH and a KF repeated for the 12 month of the year.
The problem is that the fixed lenght .txt file extracted with RSCRM_BAPI stops to the month 11, month 12 is discarded. If i try to extract a .csv file with the same query all the 12 month are included in the file.
Question: Is it possible that RSCRM_BAPI has a row lenght limitation considering the fixed lenght .txt file?
Many thanks in advance.
Fabio

How did you sechudle the Query/Report Using BAPI, i'm having similar Problem. Please Can you help me out.
My problem is , i have a query which is schedule for every month 2 wed and a bapi is associated to The query.

Oh!! You should to explain it at first thread itself that you want to display a JPG imange or other WDWebResourceTypetaken form the backend.
1. So this is not at all a URL
2. You have to convert binary data to WDWebResource then display it in either Image UI element or other (like PDF , txt etc)

try
               //        Read the datasource of the FileUpload
               IWDResource res = wdContext.currentContextElement().getResource();
               InputStream in = res.read(false);
               ByteArrayOutputStream bOut = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
               int length;
               byte[] part = new byte[10 * 1024];
               while ((length = in.read(part)) != -1)
                    bOut.write(part, 0, length);
               in.close();
               bOut.close();
               IPrivateUploadCompView.IImageTableElement ele = wdContext.nodeImageTable().createImageTableElement();
               ele.setImage(wdContext.currentContextElement().getResource().getUrl(0));
               ele.setText(res.getResourceName());

          catch (Exception e)
               wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportWarning(e.toString());
Here I assume that you convert that data to IWDResource type or

WDWebResource.getWebResource(wdContext.currentContextElement().getresource(), type);

How to fix skewed table columns and rows after re-import XML

My question is regarding XML Import in InDesign CS3.
I have a XML that has a table of 5 columns and 5 rows, when I import it into InDesign, the table shows up fine with 5 columns and 5 rows. However when I revise my table to have an additional column, and re-import the XML file, the table gets updated, but instead of with an additional column, it gets 'appended' with an additional row instead (InDesign seems to blindly replace each cell from left to right, top to bottom, and ends up with 6 rows instead). The XML file specifies the number of columns and rows (5 and 5 before, 5 and 6 after), why doesn't InDesign recognize it and automatically add a new column when I re-import the file? Is this problem fixed in CS5.5? Is there a script to fix this?
Here is an example of my old XML vs new XML:

What I mean is, right now there is a "workaround" which requires a user to manually add an extra column before re-importing the XML (with an extra column), otherwise the results get skewed. If by providing a script we can simply ask the user to "run" it, it would be a more "acceptable" solution.
Right. So, one solution would be to use Convert Text to Tables. If you find that works for you, then you can script it.
That's why I asked you...
Of course if nothing is required from the user other than simply re-importing, then that would be the best solution.
Well, one could imagine a script that was attached to the re-import command, or to the link update notification, but probably the first step is to get something that works reasonably well without automating it completely. Especially because triggers to run scripts silently can introduce hard-to-debug problems.
Sure we can switch to use "CALS table and see if this works. The question is, why should we need to? In the 2nd XML there is clearly a different "aid:tcols" value, and yet InDesign seems to ignore it and assume the same # of columns? This sounds like an Indesign bug, can someone confirm? Is there any plans to fix this?
Not to be snarky, but do you want it to work or not? There are the tools you have and the tools you wish you had, and you can't really do much with the ones you wish you had. I'm kind of assuming you are looking for a solution today, not a solution in 2013.
Yes, I believe two of us have confirmed this appears to be a bug.
Plans to fix? Well, we can't really tell you. You could try asking Adobe, but that's not easy information to get out. But you can certainly open a support case at http://adobe.com/go/supportportal and ask. It's not like we have special information here...
But you're probably better off filing a bug first, in that same fashion.
But let's assume no one had filed the bug. CS6 is expected in the March/April 2012 timeframe. That means that they're probably just putting the finishing touches on it right now, and it's going to be very difficult to fix things in it now. So then the earliest you'd likely get it fixed in CS6.5/CS7/whatever which presumably comes out by 2Q2013, and that's assuming Adobe decides to fix it...
I also can't find much documentation on how to update my table to a "CALS table", any examples?
Try this thread:

Please help! My Itunes says corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling so I moved it to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I can't delete or open to close it, what do I do

Please help!
My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj".
Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

I have the latest downloadable version of LR5. It crashed while it was createing 1:1 previews during an import. After a Win7(64) restart, it shows a message that LR needs to quit because it can't read the preview files and it will try to fix it the next

I have the latest downloadable version of LR5. It crashed while it was createing 1:1 previews during an import. After a Win7(64) restart, it shows a message that LR needs to quit because it can't read the preview files and it will try to fix it the next time is launches. I get the same message the next and every subsequent time it launches so I can't launch LR at all now.
I get that the preview file got corrupted somehow. Is there some way to fix this problem without building a new catalog?

Use Windows Explorer to open the folder containing your catalog. You will see a folder with the extension .lrdata. You need to delete that folder and then start Lightroom again. Lightroom will generate a new previews folder.

I uses Time Machine to transfer files and program from old to new MacBook Pro. Aperture doesn't work. Every time I open Aperture the computer need me to key in Serial number. How do I fix it.

Hi There,
I purchased a new MacBook Pro Retina 15". Since I am using MacBook Pro and I uses Time Machine for backup files and program. Store saleman tell me I can retore my existing program and files from old MacBook Pro to new MacBook Pro computer. After files transfer it seem to be OK. But only Aperture has a problem when every time I open Aperture to edit photos, MacBook Pro ask me to key in the Aperture Serial Number that made me so inconvinent. Did any one have meet this problem and can someone teach me how to fix it, Thanks.

Either the license files were not transferred or it has to be relicensed.
Remove and then re-install aperture. On an rMBP this should take only a couple of minutes.

When I try to attach my css style sheet Dreamweaver gives me an error saying that my .css file appears to be an .html file and will not attach. How do I fix this so I can attach my style sheet?

I have built a css style sheet in Dreamweaver. When I try to attach it to my html website, it prompts me that my "css file appears to be an .html file and cannot attach". I've tried removing the /* */ as suggested by other forums, but this has not resolved the issue. I was using css style sheets with no problem 2 days ago. Now I get that error message. How do I fix this so I can attach my style sheet?

What does the code of the CSS file look like?
An external CSS file needs to be written in CSS only (no html tags like <html>, <body>, <head>, etc ).
It also must have a .css file extension, if yours has a .html extension it won't work.
