Help with converting a Nero file

I have previously converted a dvd insert designed with Nero into a pdf using adobe acrobat in order to send to someone else. When I tried to do the same thing today with a new Nero designed insert the conversion wouldn't work. The message said adobe didn't support the program that created the file. Any ideas?

thanks for your response.
When I create a dvd insert or cd label etc using Nero the file extension is nct - nero cover template. The printer wants the file as a pdf as he can't open Nero files. I have version 9.3 of acrobat.

Subject: help with converting a Nero file
Nero is simply a CD/DVD burning application and should have no effect on the type of files that will eventually be on the CD/DVD.
What type of files are you trying to convert and exactly how are you trying to convert them? Plus, it would help to know the version of Acrobat you are using.

Please Help with Converting PDF document to Word Document

I have downloaded our PDF document to be converted to a word document --- it did not work correctly--we need help with this

Good day Scott,
I received your document via our File Conversion Issue form. The root of the problem you're facing is the quality of the scan. I'm not sure if you were starting with a poor quality hard-copy or simply low DPI settings on your scanner, but the reason the results you received were so different than the PDF was the quality of the input.
If you're hard copy looks clearer than the PDF file you created, I would suggest increasing the resolution settings on your scanner.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Kind regards,
David

Help with Converting an Access query

Hello:
First time poster and would appreciate some help in converting this Access query into T-SQL so I can use in a Stored Procedure. I don't need help in resolving the syntax for the variables as parameter in the second query, but stuck in writing the first query
in T-SQL . I assume I need some type of nested query with a left join to another query in T-SQL.
How do I convert this from Access into MS-SQL
SELECT TBL_MONTH.L_Month, TBL_MONTH.L_MonthName
FROM TBL_MONTH LEFT JOIN qry_MonthCheck ON TBL_MONTH.L_Month = qry_MonthCheck.L_Month
WHERE (((qry_MonthCheck.L_Month) Is Null));
qryMonthCheck in Access is defined as
SELECT TBL_MONTH.L_Month, TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_YEAR, TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_USER, TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_LOCATION
FROM TBL_MONTH RIGHT JOIN TBL_SIGNOFF ON TBL_MONTH.L_Month = TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_MONTH
WHERE (((TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_YEAR)=[forms]![frm_signoff]![cboyear]) AND ((TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_LOCATION)=[Tempvars]![tmpVarUserLOC]));

It is very much up to personal taste. For tables I use no prefix at all. Or suffix. I prefer plural: categories, products, etc. For junction tables, I drop the plural in the first entity, for instance productcategories. As for the case, many people prefer
initial uppercase, while I go for lowercase only. But initial uppercase has its points, particularly in documentation. I am a staunch advocate of using case-sensitive collation for metadata. I don't see any point in mixing productcategories, Productcategories,
ProductCategories etc. That can only cause confusion.
As for either entities, I don't use views much, and I don't have any prefix for these either. In fact, several views I've been involved used to be tables once upon a time.
If you want to add a marker to the object name, I recommend using a suffix. It is much easier to find objects in the version control system and other browser, when not everything is cluttered on the same letter. For instance, I typically add _sp at the end
of stored procedure names.

Help With Registration Form

Hi
I have created a registration form, where on the first page
the user enters a user name and password, then they go to the next
page where they enter their name. This then goes to the next page
where they enter their address, then there contact details.
But I want all these details to go on to a page where they
can review their details, then press a submit button which inserts
the data into a mysql db.
But I need help with how I do this?
I have created the following Java script in the body. Or
should it be in the header? Or on another form? to insert their
details:-
<% Insert Data %>
<jrun:sql datasrc="regift">
INSERT INTO account VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("User_Name").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Password").trim() %>',
INSERT INTO name VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("First_Name").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Last_Name").trim() %>'
INSERT INTO address VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("House_Number").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Street").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Town").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("County").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Postcode").trim() %>'
INSERT INTO contact_details VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("Email_Address").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Telephone_Number").trim()
%>'
</jrun:sql>
Is this correct?
Thanks for all your help, Lou.

Your code is correct only for the first page. What you need
to do after the
initial record is entered is grab its ID and then on
subsequent pages you
would use and UPDATE sql statement

Help with Parameter Form

Hello, I have a somewhat complicated Report and I am hoping that I can create the Parameter Form in Reports (I would rather not use Forms because I don't know it as well)
Here's my problem:
Right now I have 2 fields that I need help with.
The first one is called "Report Name" and I have it coded to a bind variable that will search for a series of "work units" such as 02% or 03%
This works as coded, the problem comes with the other "Work Unit" field. What I have right now is a LOV that queries for work units that start in either 02 or 03. This variable will narrow down the report findings to the specific work unit selected. What I want is for this list to be dependant on what the user choses for report name.
For example if the user choses ReportName1 the report query finds work units with 02%, but the "work unit" field still displays the list of work units 02% and 03% and the user must know to only chose the certain work units for the specific "Report Name" selected.
If there is a way to somehow have the "Work Unit" field be dependant on the "Report Name" field please give me soem ideas of how to do it.

Thats what I was worried about.
Well I have been trying to learn forms for some time now but I can't quite get the hang of it yet.
I don't really have anyone who knows it here, so I'm kind of learning on my own.
Thanks for the response.

HELP WITH A FORM

Ok here is the problem,
I am trying to make a form in my existing fla document and
the form will not function.
I have created the form and used the exact same php script in
a seperate flash movie and the form worked fine but I can not get
it to work in my existing fla.
I would reall appreciate any help with this issue.....
I need my file
(download my file at
http://66.70.213.43/testsite/main3.fla
to have a working email submission form.
this file has no working form on it now and the existing form
can be modified but I would like to keep the submit and the reset
buttons as is if possable.
I would like to use the php email style that is in the lesson
on gotoandlearn.com ( the lesson is listed as sending mail with php
but I am willing to accept other methods if needed.
The Movie clip symbol of the actual form with the submit and
reset button is call P5_s7
The Movie clip symbol of the page which contains the form is
called PAGE 5
I will edit the php and the flash script after you send the
file to me to reflect the email addresses that I want to use so for
testing purposes you can use any email that you want.
I would really appreciate it if someone with more flash
experience could help me out and post a working copy of my file and
the php script that the form links to so that I could re download
then.
Thank you in advance
Please note that there may be some $$$ in it for you if you
can help me.......

Don't think you're going to find anyone here who will just be
willing to do the work for you. You might want to check out the
Flash and PHP Integration sample file that comes with Flash 8 for
some pointers on how to get this started.
If you have specific questions later, write back! Good luck!

Help with Login Form (JSP DB Java Beans Session Tracking)

Hi, I need some help with my login form.
The design of my authetication system is as follows.
1. Login.jsp sends login details to validation.jsp.
2. Validation.jsp queries a DB against the parameters received.
3. If the query result is good, I retrieve some information (login id, name, etc.) from the DB and store it into a Java Bean.
4. The bean itself is referenced with the current session.
5. Once all that's done, validation.jsp forwards to main.jsp.
6. As a means to maintain state, I prefer to use url encoding instead of cookies for obvious reasons.I need some help from step 3 onwards please! Some code snippets will do as well!
If you think this approach is not a good practice, pls let me know and advice on better practices!
Thanks a lot!

Alright,here is an example for you.
Assume a case where you don't want to give access to any JSP View/HTML Page/Servlet/Backing Bean unless user logging system and let assume you are creating a View Object with the name.
checkout an example (Assuming the filter is being applied to a pattern * which means when a resource is been accessed by webapplication using APP_URL the filter would be called)
public doFilter(ServletRequest req,ServletResponse res,FilterChain chain){
     if(req instanceof HttpServletRequest){
            HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) req;
            HttpSession session = request.getSession();
            String username = request.getParameter("username");
            String password = request.getParameter("password");
            String method = request.getMethod();
            String auth_type = request.getAuthType();
            if(session.getAttribute("useInfoBean") != null)
                request.getRequestDispatcher("/dashBoard").forward(req,res);
            else{
                    if(username != null && password != null && method.equaIsgnoreCase("POST") && (auth_type.equalsIgnoreCase("FORM_AUTH") || auth_type.equalsIgnoreCase("CLIENT_CERT_AUTH")) )
                         chain.doFilter(req,res);
                    else
                      request.getRequestDispatcher("/Login.jsp").forward(req,res);
}If carefully look at the code the autherization is given only if either user is already logged in or making an attempt to login in secured way.

Help with web form script. PHP, CGI, Perl???

anyone willing to help with a web form script? I have a form built, but cant seem to figure out the scripting! Should I be using Perl, CGI, PHP... What do I need to enable? I am a complete novice when it comes to scripts. Looking for a little friendly help.

Here is a simple bit of PHP to stick in the page your form posts to. You would need to edit the first three variables to your liking, and add the html you want to serve afterwards:
<pre>
<?php
$emailFrom = '[email protected]';
$emailTo = '[email protected]';
$emailSubject = 'Subject';
$date = date('l, \t\h\e dS \o\f F, Y \a\t g:i A');
$browser = $HTTPSERVER_VARS['HTTP_USERAGENT'];
$hostname = $HTTPSERVER_VARS['REMOTEADDR'];
$message = "$date\n\nAddress: $hostname\nBrowser: $browser\n\n";
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$message .= $key . ": " . $value . "\n";
$mailResult = mail($emailTo,$emailSubject,$message,"From: $emailFrom");
?>
</pre>
This script will grab the server's date and the submitter's address and browser type. It will then list the name and value of each form field you have put on your form.
Also, this script expects your form method="post".
Lastly, you can offer alternate text later on in your html page based on the success of the above script with a snippet like this:
<pre><?php
if ($mailResult) {
echo "Your comments have been received thank you.";
} else {
echo "There was an error. Please try again or contact us using an alternate method.";
?></pre>

Help with Scripting forms when additional characters added

Hi,
I am new to scripting in adobe professional, I thank anyone in advance for any advice or help they can give me.
I am trying to use the calcuations within the forms that I am putting fields onto. In the process I discovered that the program the forms are within are attaching a pipe and additional characters after the actual name that I have named them. So, I am not able to use even the simple calculations within adobe to "sum" fields.   For example: I named the field "1_1Text" and this is what displays when you go into the calculations and pick the fields you want. But the actual name is "1_1Text|1234567" so the calculations will not work.
I take it then I need to use the advanced scripting but I am unsure of the format for a routine such as this. I have a little knowledge of javascript but it has been awhile. There must be a scan to find the pipe and then you should be able to chop off the extra characters since I will never know the characters the program adds on so then I can do calculations on these fields. Then you would have to put them into an array or something to save them?   Any help with a script or hints would surely be appreciated.
Thanks!

Could explain more fully how you are creating your forms and what programs you are using from the creation of the base document to which program and how you are adding fields.
I think you are misunderstanding me.   I use Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0. I can get the calculations to work correctly if I use the form as it is after creating it.
But these forms are put into an SQL database and they get selected within a VB.net program or ASP.net program (both are used). So these programs (VB.net or ASP.net) are adding the extra characters at the end, hence I do not know the names of the fields when the forms are being filled in. So the calculations do not work with the "original names" that I created for the fields.
I just figured if I created a routine that looped through and chopped off the extra characters these programs put on the end I would be able to do the calcuations and they would work. I believe there is a substring operation within javascript.

Help with contact form

Hi,
there is a contact form on my site and it works to submit a message, but it always has my name as sender in it and my email adress to reply to!
This is a form where customers are booking appointments, the shop always thinks that the emails are coming from me!
I checked site manager - system emails - but what am I supposed to put in as from email? It should use the customers email, which will change all the time.
I need help with that fast!
Thanks in advance
cheers
Cat

Hello Cat
The "From" email is the email that will be displayed as the sender of the email (although the email is always sent from our servers), so it is not the customer's email address. You can set it to any email address, that can be your client's email address too, so when a reply is sent, the reply would be sent to the client. This is about the email that is sent to the visitors of the site, also known as the "Autoresponder" email.
Cheers

Help With converting px to em...

So, I thought that I would have a go at converting a site from all px to em to help with accessibility and using browser zoom. I wish I'd never started!
This is how I approached it.
     1) Set my font to 100%
     2) Change all font sizes to em
     3) Feel smug
     4) Notice that after a couple of ramps up on the zoom the layout goes pear-shaped
     5) Change all width/height dimensions to em
     6) Change all padding/margin dimensions to em
     7) Feel a little tearful
     8) Realise I don't have a back-up style sheet
     9) Re-draw WWW domination plan
     10) Start to make a little progress
     11) Try out the negative zoom
     12) See that screw my layout - don't understand it
     14) Add some min-width/min-height rules
     12) Feel a little tearful...
     13) Came here to be with friends
I worked out I think, that using flexible units in a fixed environment is going to cause problems.
I'm having trouble with layout more than text-size. I think the only thing that will cause me grief with text-size is with nested element and the way that em is inherited but, the site is quite straight forward, apart from a few floated elements.
I thnk my main problems are with the layout: Images, background images and how to approach the whold width/height thing.
Martin
PS I won't be at my PC for a while so, if you respond and I don't come back to you, it's not because I'm not interested. I'm too ashamed and confused to post a live page!

Hi Martin
The one thing that confuses people when converting from px to em units is that they think px is a fixed size and em's are flexible, which unfortunately is not true, and just to confuse things even more Microsoft even treat px's as a relative size, (this is actually correct if you look at the css1 spec).
The best advice I can offer is to start with the layout when converting to em's and worry about the font etc. later, because as they say a pixel is relative.

Help with converting FLAC to ALAC while retaining metadata and cover art

Hi,
I've decided to embark on the long trek to convert my 18k+ FLAC music library into ALAC. I've decided on ALAC for mainly 2 reasons: iTunes/iPhone/iMac/Sonos compatibility and my desire to keep with a lossless format.
My library is pretty eclectic; I have quite a bit of classical music along with many other genres. I have spent quite a bit of time maintaining the correct tag information; I do not want to lose any of this info that I've painstakingly added to my library over the years. The tags that I use on my FLAC files are:
Filename
Title
Artist
Album
Album Artist
Disc Number
Disc Count
Compilation
Comment
Year
Genre
Track
Composer
Orchestra
Conductor
Performer
Length
Modified
Path
I want to be especially sure that I maintain the data in Composer, Orchestra, Performer and Conductor in my migration to ALAC. I also want to include my CD art in each track (many of which I had to scan since some of my CD's are not available for sale). The CD covers are stored in a "folder.jpg" file in the path of each CD's contents. I would really like the automated conversion process to pick up each "folder.jpg" and embed it in the appropriate tracks.
I have a license for dbPowerAmp, so I can do the conversion on the Windows side if need be (I have BootCamp set up and use Fusion), but I would prefer to do everything in Mac.
I am hoping that some of you good folks will offer up comments about the feasibility of this endeavor, and advise me on possible tools to use, paths to take, pitfalls to watch out for, etc.
Thank you for your time.

I finally got done with the conversion. It took 2 weeks running XLD of 24x7, but at last it's over with.
I first used iTunes "download missing album art" to start the process. It populated about 50% of my collection, but I found that many of the album art was wrong. For instance, with collections (various artists) it populated the album art from the first track; with others, it put in the wrong album cover for the right CD. These were mostly because iTunes would get a contemporary cover, where my cover was from an older pressing of the disk.
I purchased a program called TuneUp which has helped with my missing album artwork, and also with correcting typos. But even with using TuneUp, I probably have a couple of weeks worth of work left to do.
Then comes the renaming of the Classical music tracks.

Help with converting hex to date and time

Hi!
I am using snmp4j libraries to walk the mib tree. The system date is getting returned in 11 hexadecimal octets. I require help in converting it to date and time. I looked up the RFC convention of what each octets represent. Require help with conversion.
Eg: 07:db:06:0a:29:1d:00:2b:05:1e
Thanks,

Octets Contents Range
1-2 year 0..65536
3 month 1..12
4 day 1..31
5 hour 0..23
6 minutes 0..59
7 seconds 0..60
(use 60 for leap-second)
8 deci-seconds 0..9
9 direction from UTC '+' / '-'
10 hours from UTC 0..13
11 minutes from UTC 0..59
For example I just took the time an hour ago it came out as
07:db:06:13:12:11:1a:00:2b:05:1e
I have to convert this as a date long value to send it.
Do I have to write an utility of my own to do it?
