Fulltext Search over Documents and Classification

Hi Experts,
i have allready setup an Indexserver for Document indexing. What should i to to perform fulltext search on DMS Classification? Do i need EnterpriseSearch?
Thanks a lot!
Regards, Biagio

Hi Biagio,
regarding your question I have to say that the fulltext search in DMS transaction CV04N is only for searching text in original files and not in classification data.

Document search, search for documents and letters

CRM 5.0 - ICWC
In a serviceticket in the business context there are a few files, documents, emails and letters.
Documents -> uploaded manualy
Emails -> created after reply or new email
Letter -> Created by merge-documents
In the menu 'Document Search' you can search for all attached documents which belongs to the serviceticket. However, only the document types are found.
Anyone some tips how to add the option to find the letter documents?

Hi Adil,
#1. Per my knowledge, anonymous access cannot be granted at item level.
If we need to allow anonymous access to items or documents in the lists or libraries, the anonymous access should be granted at list/library level.
#2. To exclude the list items and documents from libraries, I recommend to create search scope to exclude those contents.
Remember to select Exclude as the Behavior in the search scope.
More information about search scopes for your references:

Fulltext search with Stellent.

Hello,
sorry for double posting, but I didn't noticed that an ECM specific forum exists.
I have successfully installed UCM+Site Studio using Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 as RDBMS and I have enabled the fulltext search.
Trying to use the fulltext search on Ravenna example site, and also directly in the Content Server, it seems that the fulltext search only works with documents having Native Document as Web Site Object Type.
For example, if I search for Ravenna, only few pages are found (all in News), and all with content from from .doc files.
While the home page, which starts with Ravenna Hosting..., but contained in a contributor data file, is not retrieved!!!
If I run manually the query performed by the search without the CONTAINS operator, which is appended if something is typed in the search box, the contributor data file is found.
In fact "Data File" is included in the conditions.
But when the CONTAINS operator is added, all the non-native documents disappear.
What I really need to know if there is a way to do fulltext searches on documents with Data File as Web Site Object Type.
Am I missing something?
How can I search, for example, for content added to a region by a contributor using the wysiwyg editor?

I have installed Oracle Database 1ogR3 Express Edition and Content Server Windows 10gR3.
then i have done all the steps as given in admin_oracletextsearcv_10g.pdf to search full-text criteria.
I have also enabled OracleTextSearch component.
whenever i am trying to do search operation, it gives various error....like
(1).

Fulltext search in web UI for CRM 7.0

Dear CRM gurus.
We are strugling with enhanced searching in web ui. Even I went throught manual here:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/CRM/EnablefulltextsearchusingTREX(EmbeddedSearch-EnterpriseSearch)
than it seams not working. We have CRM 7.0 with SP05. Please share your experience.
Than we need to solve fulltext searching over texts in activities. Do you have any experinece even with this?
Thank you for any help.
Regards,
Petr Syka

Hello Petr. I want to ask you about your problem (described in this post) Have you solved it?
I have the same problem but with russian language. And I want to ask you to help me...

UCM Search using firstname and lastname

Hi,
One of our requirement is to enable the search using firstname and lastname. We store users, groups, roles, and accounts in Oracle Internet Directory and integrated with UCM. I would like to know the ways to show firstname and lastname fields in the search so that users can search with those properties instead of author metadata .
Thanks,
Raj

If I got the question, first name and last name refer to first and last names of document authors, right? Otherwise, I miss the link between search for documents and people identities in an identity pool.
Note that search dialogs support "wild-characters" - that is, you can enter "Jiri Mac*" instead of "Jiri Machotka" - alternatively, use "Contains" rather than "Equals To" criteria.
Furthermore, I'm wondering how you intend to use first and last names in GUI - do you prefer to have two names that you somehow construct together? Do you want to display the names to users? (How many names will be in first names? How many in last names?)

Documents and threads to start with Crystal reports with BI

Hi,
I am a BI consultant and searching for documents and threads to gain knowledge on Crystal reports .Could any one pls send me the pointers for the same...
Kindly do the needful
Points are assured.
Thanks
James

You are in the right place for Crystal Reports and you may also want to look in the BI Forums.
A good place to start is the Help file for Crystal Reports Designer and download our sample reports. They don't use B1 as the data source but it will help to see how to use CR.
You need to specify specific questions and "how to's". Books have been written on how to use Crystal reports which is beyond the scope of this forum on one post.
Thank you

Creating an interactive CV: mouse over / roll over pop ups, embedded documents and videos

Hi everyone,
I am pretty new to Adobe Acrobat Pro and new to this forum (1st post here!). Greetings from Spain... and apologies for grammar mistakes and misleading explanations (in advance). I have been checking this forum and googling quite a bit, but I do not get to many conclusions (maybe I sleep few due to our baby!).
I want to create an interactive CV with the following characteristics:
1) CV in 1 page in a PDF document (no problem here!)
2) Hyperlinks in the text which open embedded files (pdf of others) hidden to the viewer but which are in the pdf document. Possible? (I want the recruiter to receive just one file). Even better if they could be open in another window (doubt it).
How could it be done? I try add documents and they are attached at the end, so the original pdf gets to have more pages, all viewable.
3) Furthermore, mouse over / roll over pop ups which show you a preview of the file you may open clicking the hyperlink, for a quick view of the content.
I think that this may be done, but using other programs, like InDesign. I just try to add a document, but it's sort of a link to a document in my computer. I may add pdf, pps files.
4) Even more, would it be possible to embed a video which would open in a new window? If not, I tried to add a link to youtube and there was a warning as "this program tries to open a window, if you trust the owner... " (similar safety message) and the very last thing I want the recruiter to have to decide whether to decide to watch it or not.
I know its a questions in its very first stages, but the big point is to know if/what it is possible to do, so that I search in the right direction.
If you have any idea or advice (even if not related to PDF pro, of course), just please let me know.
Thanks a lot in advance. I hope this thread may help others.
Cheers,
tebanseeker

Hi Dave,
Thanks a lot for the input.
(3) Right, I could not find either a way using just Acrobat Pro (I'm using XI). Sad thing that you confirm it... But it looks like you may do it using other programs on the PDF, but I don't know to use them. You may take a look at this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEyJuT8SSME (popup rollovers using Illustrator)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOVRMVdZbVE (popup rollovers using InDesign)
(4) I think that embedding would make the file to big, so I may opt for the hyperlink to youtube option, even if I deeply dislike that message, although youtube is a reliable source for the viewer.
Any other input is very welcome. I am pretty illiterate in the field!
Have a nice weekend,
tebanseeker

Keyword search over XML documents

there are many open source native XML databases,and search engines that support XQuery and XPath and many of them also support full text search.
such as:
1- TPOX
2- Timber
3- DBXML
4 - http://exist.sourceforge.net/kwic.html [http://exist.sourceforge.net/kwic.html]
5- http://www.inf.uni-konstanz.de/dbis/basex/ [http://www.inf.uni-konstanz.de/dbis/basex/]
6- http://xqengine.sourceforge.net/ [http://xqengine.sourceforge.net/]
7- Lucene
But, could you please tell me what is the alternative open source systems for the following closed systems (XRANK is a Ranked keyword search over XML documents on http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~cbotev/XRank.pdf ) and (XSeek is A Semantic XML Search Engine Using Keywords on http://xseek.asu.edu/xseekdemo.pdf )
I posted the question on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2921379/is-there-any-open-source-system-for-keyword-search-on-xml-documents and I have got good information , but I think some people on this forum may have more information.
thanks.

Well, there is a workaround to search in the xml. Open xml in FF, open the page source (Ctrl + U) and search in it.

In Pages document, how do I search for word and view its frequency and page numbers in a sidebar?

I have a long document and I want to be able to search for certain key words and phrases, and then see how many times they appear in the document and exactly where. How do I conduct this sort of search and viewing? In the past, in Pages and Word, I've been able to view my "finds" in a sidebar but I can't figure out how to activate that service anymore.
Thanks!

Here is a word frequency concordance Automator Service that works in both versions of Pages. It does not present a page number reference. It is by descending count, and alphabetically, within the repetitive counts as shown in the image here. In any document, you select the text to process, then Menu > Application Name > Services > Frequency. The Service will open TextEdit with the n-pages of scrollable results. It is 16 pt Helvetica Neue for legibility.
Here is the code:
on run {input, parameters}
 try
 set mySelection to input as text
 set formatted_result to concordance(mySelection)
 if formatted_result is not null then
 set textHeading to "Word Frequency List"
 tell application "TextEdit"
 activate
 set NewDoc to make new document with properties {name:"Concordance"}
 make new paragraph at beginning of text of NewDoc with data textHeading & return
 make new paragraph at end of text of NewDoc with data formatted_result
 tell text of NewDoc
 set font to "Helvetica Neue"
 set size to 16
 set color of paragraph 1 to {0, 0, 65535}
 end tell
 end tell
 else
 display dialog with title ¬
 "No input selected" with icon stop ¬
 giving up after 15
 end if
 on error errmsg number errnum
 display alert ¬
 "AppleScript Error" message errmsg & "[" & errnum & "]" as critical ¬
 giving up after 30
 end try
 return input
end run
on concordance(mySelection)
-- Use Ruby to count word frequency and alphabetically sort words
 set rb to ¬
 "selected = String.new\nfreqs = Hash.new(0)\nselected = ARGV.join(' ').gsub(/[,.]/, \"\")\n
 words = selected.split(/[^\\w-]+/)\nwords.each { |word| freqs[word] += 1 }\n
 freqs_sorted = freqs.sort do |a,b|\n\t
 a.last == b.last ? a.first <=> b.first : b.last <=> a.last\nend\n
 freqs_sorted.each { |k,v| printf \"[ %8s ] %s\", v, k }"
 do shell script "/usr/bin/ruby -e " & rb's quoted form & space & mySelection's quoted form
end concordance
Launch /Applications/Automator and choose New Document, then click the Service icon, and then select the Choose button.
On the left, you will have a list of Libraries from which to choose workflow items. Find Library > Utilities. In the adjacent column, locate the Run Applescript workflow. Click on it, then drag and drop it in the large workflow window to your right.
At the top, you can select Service receives text in any application. Leave Output replaces selected text unchecked.
In your Run AppleScript workflow window, you will see AppleScript boilerplate. Click on it and press command+A, then backspace to delete this content. Copy and paste the above code into this Run AppleScript workflow window. Press the Run button in Automator's upper right corner. If (and it should) a TextEdit window pops up, you are good, and you want to press File > Save. A dialog box will pop-up where you can name your Service. I called my Frequency, you may wish to call it something else. Once you have save it, you can exit Automator. Services are deposited in yourlogin directory/Library/Services.
If you have a Pages document open with text, either select it, or command+a to select the entire document. Now, you select your Service via Pages > Services > Frequency. This will now pop-up a new TextEdit document with the results. If you want to save this new document, you must use option+File to Save as...

What is the different between Sharepoint fast search service and Sql server fulltext search?

HI ,
I want to kow what is the different between Sharepoint fast search service and Sql server fulltext search?
Or Can I abstract the Sharepoint fast search from the Sharepoint platform as a isolate component?
Thank you.
James

They are very, very different beasts.
Firstly FAST Search for SharePoint is the old name for the product and is only relevant for SharePoint 2010 not 2013. It got merged into the standard SharePoint search for the 2013 release.
SharePoint search is aimed at providing a Bing or Google like experience for your intranet content, as well as providing some nifty features that are purely SharePoint releated along the way. That means it can crawl SharePoint content, file shares,
outlook mailboxes, internal and external websites and probably fifty other different things if you really tried. Whilst i'm not an expert on SQL full text search I believe it's intended to provide a search feature for content held within SQL databases
and tables.
Can you run SharePoint purely for Search? Yes, definitely.

How to Search for text in a word document and replace it

and replace it with another text. How do i achieve this?
And another issue is when i search for the particular pattern i need to store the pattern that comes after the pattern as i need it for further use before i replace it.
Thanks And Warm Regards,

Hey Chen,
Well before i do the search and edit , I am actually opening a .mts file in word which is happening successfully.
The issue that i am facing now is I am unable to save it as .doc file through the 'SaveAs' method.

After i do this conversion i intend to pass the data from the .doc file to an internal table and then do the required change.
But First i need to save it to .doc type.

Hi Vickey, S,
Sorry for the delay in response. Is it happening with all the files?
Also, please write the steps you are taking to type in the document.
You might try uninstalling and re installing the Reader in case it is happening with all the files.

Search results displays title from the document and not from its metadata

Hi All,
I have an issue with SharePoint 2010 Search results. While searching for any content in SharePoint, it displays the title value from the keyword in the document and not from the metedata.
Scenario:- I have a document library and a document named "Bill Details C1234.doc" in it. The title for this item in document library is "Bill Details". However on searching with keyword "Bill" it displays the
first word in the word document which is "I".It should display the title set in the document i.e. "Bill Details".
Please suggest

I think you're looking to do the reverse of this:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/c2ec4fc2-e04c-453c-8035-4f334f062d05/have-search-results-display-the-filename-of-a-word-doc-instead-of-the-title-metadata?forum=sharepointsearchlegacy
check this out as well, again I think you want to reverse part of this where it references filename
http://chris.gg/2011/06/display-filename-instead-of-document-title-in-sharepoint-search/
So, where it references Filename, you would put title, but leave where it references title alone. Or maybe I misunderstood and you are looking for exactly this, to make search display the filename and not the title, in which case I trust that you'll
find this to be your answer.

How to do search with multiple texts across documents and rename the file with found text?

Hello:
I'm trying to do the batch search across the multiple documents and rename the file (or save as) after the found word?
In example:
I have many unique texts and would want to search across the multiple documents.
If a document is found with that unique text then, the document is either renamed or save as with that unique text.
So, I could know what unique text that file holds.
How do I do that?
Let me know.
Thanks

Welcome to the forum!
When you want to post a block of code, you can enclose it with the mark ups { code }
That is the key word code surrounded by curly brackets, but without the spaces
You seem to be running a very old (and unsupported release of the database)
7.3 has not been a current release for about 10 years.
It's probably been that long since I've used this technique, but i think it should work.
You should consider welcoming your system to the 21st century by upgrading to a supported release ;-)
If you used split to chop up your export file, use cat or dd to reassemble it.
So, something like this:
mknod bk.dmp p
cat xaa xab xac xad xae xaf xag xah xai > bk.dmp &
imp SYSTEM/$PASSWD parfile=imp_bk.parfile
rm bk.dmp
$ cat imp_bk.parfile
file=bk.dmp
log=imp.log
full=y
buffer=1048576
ignore=y
commit=y let us know if still have problems.
Good Luck!

I have scanned about 1600 pages of 100-year old documents and saved them as pdf files. I would like to search them for keywords and phrases. Can anyone recommend software that can be used as an index for these documents?

If you have Adobe Acrobat (not Adobe Reader) the program can perform an OCR on the document you acquired.
In the past I used ABBYY FineReader
