Help with Dynamic Stamp

Hello
I have created a dynamic stamp that I swear was working great this morning, but now odd things are happening. I am very new to this. Heres what i have done so far....
I created the PDF for the stamp.
I created the custom stamp in Adobe
I went to the file where the stamp is kept by adobe and added the form field.
I added this text in custom Calculation:
var cResponse = app.response({
cQuestion: "Enter the number to appear in the stamp.",
cTitle: "Number",
cLabel: "Number:"
if (cResponse == null) {
event.value = "*NVALID*";
else
event.value = cResponse;
I save and close file.
I go to my pdf. Hit the stamp icon, go down to dynamic stamps and in stead of a list showing of all the dynamic stamps it takes me right to this
I enter what info i want, and the stamp never stamps.
Any suggestions?
thanks!!

To add more clarification to this super fun stamps game I've been trying to play for the better part of 2 or 3 days now, going to try to blurt this out quickly so I can get dinner.
Here is a solution to adding all the stamps you used to have into new Acrobat (as the whole "just copy the file into the Roaming Acrobat Stamps folder" didn't do anything for me)
in Acrobat, create a new custom stamp, with whatever, this results in the crazy file name in the user stamp folder.
Take your old stamps file, rename it to this file name, (and put into the Title field of that acrobat properties the Name of the Stamps you'd like them to be contained under, this will be what shows up when you bring up the stamp tool.
And the whole dynamic stamp gobblygook above with the #crapblahsputting name, do away with that to make java and forms easier by opening page templates and just going through and making sure the pages in your file are accounted for and if you have the #crazyname then change it to something like #KISS=Keep it Simple Stupid (the Keep it Simple Stupid, will be what shows up if you were to show Stamp Names in Acrobat) and now when you try to do other Forms Java scripting you can just say event.source.stampName == "#KISS" and life will be easier
Also in the organize page menu drag the files around so they can be in a better order than just how you added them into Stamp originally.
You can drag in new files to this stamp file as well in the future too, just be sure to go to the page templates and get that page a name, #KISS2=Keep it Simple Squared
I hope this also saves someone the frustration of this Stamp world, I'm sure that now that I've FINALLY figured it out, Adobe will remove the feature.

And yes, as you were intimating, the delay validation on the dataflow should be set.

Hi NguyenBL,
According to your description, you created ssis package to export data from database to excel, when the package runs, you want to create new excel and name the file with time stamp. If that is the case, we can achieve the goal by following steps:
Create a script task used to create excel files.
Create a data flow task to export data from database to excel.
Add OLE DB source to data flow task.
Add Excel Destination to data flow task.
Create connection manager for OLE DB and Excel.
Click Excel Connection Manager, in Properties window, click (…) button next to Expressions, then set ExcelFilePath with expression like below:
"C:\\ETL Lab\\CreateNewExcel\\ExportData_"+REPLACE((DT_STR, 20, 1252)(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)@[System::StartTime], ":", "")+".xls"
For detail information, please refer to the document:

Help with dynamic page layouts

Hello JSP Gurus,
I'm attempting to dynamically generate the page layout for my site based on the organization a user belongs to. Basically, I'd have certain resources like navigation links, graphics, etc, that are modular. Then I'd like to construct the layout using these "moduls" in a dynamic fashion. Does anyone have any suggestions on techniques or technologies that would be useful? I'm not really looking at the portal/portlet model. Is this something that Cocoon could do by storing the layout for each customer as an XML file or something? Any ideas, suggestions, experiences would be helpful.
Thanks!

How does Tiles differ from the JetSpeed apache
project? They both appear to be portal-like
frameworks, or am I incorrect about that? Which is
preferred?Frankly, I can't give you an in-depth answer to that. Maybe someone else can help with more details.
What I can tell you is that JetSpeed seems to be more of a real portal architecture. Emphasis is placed on the framework portion, interfacing with exisiting applications. Visual layout takes second seat to this.
Tiles on the other hand puts more emphasis on visual layout and reuse.
Just looking at JetSpeed's visual interfacing a little bit makes me really dislike it. You build tables and such inside of a servlet, so there's a tight coupling (or at least, much tighter than with Struts/Tiles) between the presentation and logic. (I'm basing this on a JavaWorld article at
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-2001/jw-0727-jetspeed.html )
Based on your initial question, it would seem to me that tiles is much closer to what you're looking for (and likely easier to just pick up and use).
Anyway, take all this with a grain of salt; I'm not exactly an expert on JetSpeed. =)

Help with dynamic text and and css !

My second question of the day.
I'm trying to build a feature in my app in which the user can
hide/reveal
bolding and or
italics and or
underlining. The text is being loaded in from an xml file
and I was thinking about styling it with css in order to get the
underlining. My problem is that the only way I can think about
pulling this off is to have a css style sheet that has a defined
bold,italic and underline class defined- - then another one that
just has a italic and underline class defined -- then another one
that has just a bold and underline class defined . . . and so on
and so on. You can see why I would prefer a much more streamlined
system. Unfortunately my experience with dynamic text styling is
somewhat limited. Hopefully someone can help me out here.

Perfect. I knew it was some little snippet that I was
forgetting. I made a temporary fix of creating a 0% alpha box over
the button like a fake click area above the text, and that worked
but I know that it was a half-arsed way of working around it.
Thanks.

By the way, I don't see why you are using dynamic SQL here. Static SQL will do just fine. And so you can literally copy Adrian's setup.

Assuming the requirement is to find the partition in the supplied table with the supplied high value and the issue is that dba/all_tab_partitions.high_value is a long, one alternative along the same lines as you've done already is as follows. (I've just used a cursor rather than a function for simplicity of demo).
SQL> var r refcursor
SQL> set autoprint on
SQL> declare

Help with dynamic playlist for mpd

Hi guys,
I use mpd with sonata for playing my music, and after trying exaile there is one thing id really like for mpd, and that is the dynamic playlist function.
When you're playing a song in exaile with dynamic playlist enabled, it queries audioscrobbler and automatically adds similar artists/songs to your playlist (if you have them on your pc).
I dont want to use exaile as it just feels too big and slow and bloated (not KISS ), i know a little bit of python so i thought i'll try and make my own little script/program as Sonata has audioscrobbler support, but i dont think there is anyway to query similar artists.
I think im going to try and make this as a daemon type program that will run in the background adding songs to the playlist.
Ive found the code from the exaile source (audioscrobbler.py) which queries lastfm e.g.
>>> lips = AudioScrobblerQuery(artist='The Flaming Lips')
>>> for artist in lips.similar():
... print artist.name, artist.mbid
This will print a list of similar artists to the flaming lips.
I've not done much with python so i thought this would be a good way to try and improve.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the best way to go about searching and comparing the results to my mpd database, would the best way just to be to search the mpd.db?
And if anyone else has any ideas/comments id like to hear them.
Edit:
I just found this too, so i may only need to change some things to integrate it with mpd rather than amarok

Help with Dynamic Calc

Hello, could someone help me why after creating the dynamic calc member below, our calc script somehow get stuck/ ran very very slow...
Below is currently our Hierararchy for Division dimension:
Division Dimension
Division Rollup ( Never Share)
Division 1 ( Never Share)
Division a (Never Share) level 0
Division b (Never Share) level 0
Division c (Never Share) level 0
Division 2 (Never Share)
Division d ( Never Share) level 0
Alt_Division without cd (Dynamic Calc) ...and the member formula I did is
="Division Rollup" - "Division c" - "Division d" ;
After I refresh, the Alt_Division without cd went fine, calculated correctly when I retreive in Essbase Escel , however, the big problem was, when we run our aregular Essbase calc scripts, it somehow got stuck with Alt_Division without cd member and the calc went very very slow almost to the point that it just stopped calcing.
Could you please let me know if there is something wrong with my dynamic calc member above... Should the Alt_Division dynamic calc should not be a sibling of the Division Rollup member? or I could not use the "Division Rollup" member .
Could you please recommend a better way of writing the dynamic calc member ( and it's position in the Hierarchy) ... without me aggregarting the dbase ...( I like dynamic calc since it aggs on the fly).
Please advise.
Thanks.

Few Things...
I am assuming Division is a sparse Dimension. A Dynamic Calc member formula on a Sparse dimension member will surely take lots of time.
Suggestion 1:
Create an Alternate hierarchy sharing c and d. Change the consolidation operators to get the C - D at Alt_Hierarchy.
Suggestion 2:
Make the member Store and put the desired calculation in a Calculation script rather than having it as a dynamic calc member formula.
Hope this helps.

Help with Dynamic Objects

Hi All,
New to Flex and wanted to get some help from the public.
Basically, here's what I want to do.
I have a tab navigator with multiple tabs. Each tab has a
datagrid on it. When you click the tab, the grid should update to
new data based on the tab clicked. That's no problem. The problem
I'm running into is that because the data is taking a while to
retreive from the server, users are getting the previous's tabs
datagrid until the information is updated. I wanted to do two
things:
1) Change the cursor to a "thinking" or "processing" icon
where clicks can't be done until the full data has been retreived
and updated. This is a nice to have; i haven't the slightlest clue
on how to accomplish this.
2) In lieu/addition to #1, i wanted the datagrid to be
dynamic. Meaning, if you go to the tab, it'll add dynamically the
datagrid to the tab and then show the data.
Here's my code, but it doesn't work very well. Any help i can
get from you guys would be great:

Thanks all for your assistance.

I think Ned is on the right track, but the specific form of
the command may be off. If the ProgressEvent handler is defined on
MC_Holder_Image, then the command to get the
MC_Holder_Preload_TextField object should be something like:
var oTextField:TextField =
this.parent.parent.MC_Holder_Preload.getChildByName(childname);
oTextField.text = "some text";
The first "parent" references MC_Holder_Sprite, the second
MC_Holder. If there are several instances of MC_Holder_Preload,
then the above would have to be modified to account for that by
first using the getChildByName method to acquire the appropriate
instance like so:
var oMC:MovieClip =
this.parent.parent.getChildByName(HolderPreloadName);
var oTextField:TextField = oMC.getChildByName(TextFieldName);
Hope this (a) makes sense, (b) helps and (c) actually works.

Help with dynamic datasource and record selection

Hi, I'm having some difficulty with part of an application I'm trying to build, but here's some background first. I am a student at the University of Maryland, and I'm writing an application for one of the departments here at the university. It is sort of a front-end for an access database with a lot of extra functionality. This includes reports. First of all, the user can change the databse that the application uses, so I store that in an appsetting. For this reason, I have to tell the report what database to use at runtime rather than using the database expert. I am building a sort of report wizard in which the user selects certain values, and based upon those values, the SQL statement that the report gets data from changes. So almost everything about the report's data is dynamic and will be determined at runtime. So for example if the user chooses an officer report by chapter names, I do this (chapters is a comma delimited string): string sel = "SELECT * FROM [Undergrad Leadership] WHERE [Leadership Position] = '" + txtPosition.Text + "' AND [Chapter Name] IN (" + chapters + ");"; The part I am lost on, is how to actually interface with crystal reports. In the following code, conn is an OleDbConnection to the correct database, rep is the ReportDocument, and view is a CrystalReportsViewer. rep.DataSourceConnections[0].SetConnection(conn.DataSource, conn.Database, false); rep.RecordSelectionFormula = sel; view.ReportSource = rep; When I try to load the report, I get the following error message: Error in formula <Record Selection>: a number, currency amount, boolean, date, time, date-time, or string is expected here. Also, assuming this formula gets fixed, how do I actually get fields from this formula and datasource onto my report, since I can't do it at design time? Thanks in advance for the help. -Jared 

RCAPI (Report Creation and Modification) calls are only available with Crystal Reports Server RAS SDKs. This means that using the bundled version of Crystal Reports for Visual Studio will not allow you to place fields onto the report. A free copy of Crystal Reports Server comes with a registered copy of Crystal Reports Developer. My guess is that you don't have either of these products and that you are just using the product that came with Visual Studio.All is not lost. The first question is, do you really need to add the fields at runtime? In many cases developers just want to have control of the data that gets sent to the report and they are ok with having the same fields display.In your code you are changing the datasource which is fine, and you are assigning a Record selection formula which is also fine. The problem with the record selection is that it doesn't fit the syntax of the Report. I would suggest printing out the value that you programatically get for the formula and insert it into the Crystal Report Designer. You will probably get the same error there and gets some hints as to why it doesn't work.What I would suggest is creating a template report that already has the fields on the report and then change its datasource at runtime and add a RecordSelectionFormula.Otherwise you will have to use RAS to be able to add fields at runtime.

Newb needs help with dynamic text

Hi Everyone,
I don't like being a newb - but that's how it is...
I'm trying to create a multipage registration form that
allows uses to register products.
The first page asks for name etc, and on the second page I
want it to say "Welcome "+username "!" - that sort of thing...
The problem is I can't get it to keep the dynamic text values
accross the pages.
I can get it to repeat the input on the first page with this
code:
_root.firstname_txt.onChanged = function() {
_root.firstname_repeat.text="Hello
"+_root.firstname_txt.text;
However when I call it on the second page it is undefined:
second_repeat.text="hello "+_root.firstnamt_txt.text;
trace (_root.second_repeat.text);
I'm sure this is something simple and I'm just a programming
dunce...
Any help is appreciated.
ta

if your textfield (_root.firstname_repeat) doesn't exist on
the 2nd frame, its text property will be undefined.
to remedy, either extend your textfield's existance into the
frames needed or use a variable to store its text property (in your
onChanged handler) and use that variable to retrieve the value you
need.

Help With Dynamically Linking Premiere With After Effects

Recently, I edited some video footage in Adobe Premiere, dynamically linked it with After Effects, and added several effects and transitions within the latter application. However, after I thoroughly finished with my effects editing, I wished to place my After Effects Composition once more into Premiere, but this task met to no avail.
Whenever I copied, dragged, or dynamically linked the After Effects project into Premiere, the footage showed up displaying either "Media Offline" or a series of colors that you sometimes see when a tv channel is offline. Now, I did read several posts describing the dynamic link as being only ONE WAY, but is there no possible way to move my After Effects composition back into Premiere? Or do I have to start from scratch by copying the Premiere footage into After Effects, THEN dynamically linking it to Premiere?
Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Right, I realize that now, but that would require deleting the current dynamically linked After Effects project, right?
Also, I think the solution to my problem would be found if I could find a way to remove the dynamic link between After Effects and Premiere. Any ideas?

Please help with dynamic pl/sql

Trying to write a generic pl/sql package that can be used on any table I specify at runtime. The procedures are simple and there are only two. I don't understand advanced pl/sql enought to write it myself dynamically. Could someone please give me ideas on this? Because I don't know the syntax of dynamic pl/sql, books aren't helping much with a project I have due tomorrow :)

Yes, it will all be done at the same time, but I would like them to be able to run independent of each other in case i want one and not the other and vice versa. In procedure 1, the only thing to be done is to get the text in column_1 of tableA to column_1 in tableB.
I have a regular procedure for procedure 1 that I think will work:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE UPDATE_COLUMN_1
IS
v_column_1 tableB.column_1%TYPE;
v_name tableC.name%TYPE;
CURSOR c_name_column_1 IS
SELECT column_1, name from tableA;
BEGIN
OPEN c_name_column_1;
LOOP
Fetch c_name_column_1 INTO v_column_1, v_name;
EXIT WHEN c_name_column_1%NOTFOUND;
UPDATE tableB
SET column_1 = v_column_1,
lst_updt = sysdate,
updt_by = 'anna'
WHERE name = v_name;
END LOOP;
CLOSE c_name_column_1;
END UPDATE_COLUMN_1;
