Help with LOVs 2

Sorry for the "repetition"
I opened this thread
Help with LOVs
but I forgot to ask another question that is related,
once I call up my LOV, how can I use the value that I select from that LOV and use it to display specific info? like getting the ID to use it in a select statement??
thanks In Advance!!

In order of price here are some suggestions:

and salesrepid= :criteria.rep_id
ORDER BY 1i have created a text field in forms with a list of values base on the above query
i want to have an "ALL" option where it will select all retailer_num based on my salesrep_id condition.this doesnt seem to be working.
anyone can help plz

Hello,
so when i do the select from dual, will it give me all the retailers linked to the salesrep id specified ?Actually select statement from dual is nothing to do with retailers. It is just for showing the ALL value in list. The query modified by manu will work as you required. Because there is condition you already used for salesrep.

Urgent: please help with LOV problem

Hi,
I created a record group and LOV (LOV1), also a text item set list of value property to LOV1. When I ran form, it showed the list, but when I selected one from the list, neither double click or click OK put anything into the text item. Could someone tell me what went wrong? Thanks a lot.

Did you set the "column mapping properties" so the LOV can know which value(s) to return to which form item(s)?

Need help with a currently "in-use" form we want to switch to Adobes hosting service

Hi, I am in desperate need of help with some issues concerning several forms which we currently use a paid third party (not Adobe) to host and "re-distribute through email"...Somehow I got charged $14.95 for YOUR service, (signed up for a trial, but never used it)..and now I am paying for a year of use of the similar service which Adobe is in control of. I might want to port my form distribution through Adobe in the hopes of reducing the errors, problems and hassles my customers are experiencing when some of them push our "submit button". (and I guess I am familiar with these somewhat from reading what IS available in here, and I also know that, Adobe is working to alleviate some of these " submit" issues, so let's don't start by going backwards, here) I need solutions now for my issues or I can leave it as is, If Adobe's solution will be no better for my end users...
We used FormsCentral to code these forms and it works for the most part (if the end-user can co-operate, and thats iffy, sometimes), but I need help with how to make it go through your servers (and not the third party folks we use now), Not being cruel or racist here, but your over the phone "support techs" are about horrible & I cannot understand them or work with any of them, so I would definitely need someone who speaks English and can understand the nuances of programming these forms, to please contact me back. (Sorry, but both those attributes will be required to be able to help me, so, no "newbie-interns" or first week trainees are gonna cut it).... If you have anyone who fits the bill on those items and would be willing to help us, please contact me back at your earliest convenience. If we have to communicate here, I will do that & I can submit whatever we need to & to whoever we need to.
I need to get this right and working for the majority of my users and on any platform and OS.
You may certainly call me to talk about this, and I have given my number numerous times to your (expletive deleted) time wasting - recording message thingy. So, If it's not available look it up under [email protected]
(and you will probably get right to me, unlike my and I'm sure most other folks', "Adobe phone-in experiences")
Thank You,

Well, thanks for writing back...just so you know...I started using Adobe products in 1987, ...yeah...back then...like Illustrator 1 & 9" B&W Macs ...John Warnock's Helvetica's....stuff like that...8.5 x 11 LaserWriters...all that good stuff...I still have some of it working on a mac...much of it was stuff I bought. some stuff I did not...I'm not a big fan of this "cloud" thing Adobe has foisted upon the creatives of the world...which I'm sure you can tell...but the functionality and usefulness of your software can not be disputed, so feel free to do whatever we will continue to pay for, ...I am very impressed with CC PS on the 64 bit PC and perhaps I will end up paying you the stipend that you demand for the other services.
So I guess that brings us to our problem.. a few years back and at the height of the recession and near bankruptcy myself, I was damn lucky and hit on something and began a small arts and crafts supply service to sell my products online to a very "niche market" ...I had a unique product and still sell that product (plus others) online...My website is www.vinylcouture.com...Strange? Yes...but there is a market it seems, for everything now, and this is the market I service...Catagorically, these are 99%+ women that use these "adhesive, sticky backed vinyl products" to make different "craft items" that are just way too various and numerous to go into... generally older women, women who are computer illiterate for the most part...and all this is irrelevant to my problem, but I want you to have every bit of background on this and especially the demographic we are dealing with, so we can get right to the meat of the problem.
OK...So about two years ago, I decided to offer a "plain sheet" product of a plain colored "stick back" vinyl... it is available in multiple quantities of packs ( like 5 pieces, 10 pieces, 15 pieces, in a packi & so on)...and if you are still on my site.. go to any "GO RIGHT TO OUR ORDER PAGE" button, scroll down a little...and then to the "PLAIN VINYL" section...you will see the Weebly website order process.) You can back out from here, I think,..but, anyway this product is available in 63 colors + or - a few. So then the problem is, how do they select their individual colors within that (whatever) pack?... .
So my initial idea was to enable a "selection form" for these "colors" that would be transmitted to me via email as 'part" of the "order process".. We tried getting our customers to submit a " a list" ( something my competitiors still do, lol, poor bastards)......but that..is just unbelievable..I can't even begin to tell you what a freakin' nightmare that was...these people cannot even count to 10, much less any higher... figuring out what colors to list and send me... well, lets just say, it wasn't working......I had to figure out a better way...Something had to be done.
So after thinking this all out, and yeah...due to my total ignorance, i figured that we could make a form with Live Cycle Designer (Now Forms Central)...(back then something that was bundled with Adobe Acrobat Pro), I believe, and thats what this thing was authored in... and it would be all good...LOL!
Well not so simple...as you well know, Adobe Acrobat would NOT LET YOU EMAIL anything from itself.....it just wouldn't work (and I know why, and all that hooey), but not being one to take NO for answer,.I started looking for a way to make my little gizmo work.. So I found this company that said they can "hijack" (re-direct actually) the request to email, bypass the wah-wah, and re-transmit it to the proper parties.....for less than $100 a year, I think...its called http://pdf-fillableforms.com/.
A nice gentleman named Joseph Silva helped us program the thing to go to his servers and back out. Please dont hassle them...I need them...for now..it basically does work...try it...you should get back a copy of the form that you filled out...good luck however, if you're on MAC OSX or similar...
I have included a copy of both of our forms (and feel free to fill it out and play with it)...just put test somewhere on it...(and you must include YOUR email or it will balk)..they are supposed to be mostly identical, except one seems to be twice as large....generating a 1.7 meg file upon submission, while the other one only generates a 600K file or so...thats another issue for another day or maybe you can advise on that also...
OK so far so good......In our shop, once Grandma buys a 10 pack (or whatever), Only then she gets to the link on her receipt page ro the relevant "selection form" ,(this prevents "Filling and Sending" with "no order" and "no payment", another early problem we had)... which they can click on and it will usually download and open up on their device if all goes well...Then our little form is supposed to be fillable and is supposed to ADD UP all the quantities, so grandma knows how many she is buying and so forth right on the fly, and even while she changes her mind..., and IT'S LARGE so grandma can see it, and then it TOTALS it all up for them, ( cause remember, they can NOT add).., except there is a programming bug (mouse-click should be a mouse-up probably or something..) which makes you click in the blank spaces to get to a correct TOTAL...about 70-80% of our customers can enable all these features and usually the process completes without problems for them especially on PC's running Windows OS and Acrobat Reader X or XI...at least for most... Unfortunately it is still not the "seamless process" I would like or had envisioned for the other folks out there that do have trouble using our form.... Many folks report to us the following issues that we know of. First of all it takes too much time to load up...We know its HUGE...is there anyway that you can see, to streamline this thing? I would love for it to be more compact...this really helps on the phones and pads as I'm sure you well know.
Some just tell us,"it WON'T work"....I believe this is because they are totally out of it and dont even have Adobe Reader on their machine, & don't know how to get it ( yes, we provide the links).....or it's some ancient version....no one can stop this one...
It almost always generates some kind ( at least one time) of "error message" which we do warn them about..., telling one, basically that "Acrobat doesnt even like this happening at all, and it could be detrimental to ones computer files", blah-blah...(this freaks grandma out really bad)...& usually they end up not even trying to send it... and then I get calls that even you wouldn't believe...& If they DO nut up and push the Red "Submit Form" button, it will usually send the thing to us (and also back to them at the "required email address" they furnished on the form, thats what the folks at the "fillable forms place" do) so, if it's performing it's functions, why it is having to complain?. What are we doing wrong?....and how can I fix it?...Will re-compiling it or saving it as a newer version of "FormsCentral" correct any of these problems ?
Ok, so that should keep you busy for a minute and we can start out with those problems...but the next thing is, how can I take advantage of YOUR re-direct & hosting services?, And will it get rid of the error messages, and the slowness, and the iOS incompatibilities ? (amazingly, the last iOS Reader version worked almost OK.. but the newest version doesnt seem to work with my form on my iphone4) If it will enable any version of the iOS to send my form correctly and more transparently, then it might be worth the money...$14.95 a MONTH you say. hmmmmm...Better be good.
Another problem is, that I really don't need 5000 forms a month submitted. I think its like 70-100 or less....Got any plans for that? Maybe I'm just not BIG ENOUGH to use Adobe's services, however in this case, I really don't care whose I do use as long as the product works most correctly for my customers as well as us. Like I said, If I'm doing the best I can, I won't change anything, and still use the other third party, If Adobe has a better solution, then i'm all for that as well. In the meantime, Thanks for any help you can provide on this...

Performance issues with LOV bindings in 3-tier BC4J architecture

We are running BC4J and JClient (Jdeveloper 9.0.3.4/9iAS 9.0.2) in a 3-tier architecture, and have problems with the performance.
One of our problems are comboboxes with LOV bindings. The view objects that provides data for the LOV bindings contains simple queries from tables with only 4-10 rows, and there are no view links or entity objects to these views.
To create the LOV binding and to set the model for the combobox takes about 1 second for each combobox.
We have tried most of tips in http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/tips/muench/jclientperf/index.html, but they do not seem to help on our problem.
The performance is OK (if not great) when the same code is running as 2-tier.
Does anyone have any good suggestions?

I can recommend that you look at the following two bugs in Metalink: Bug 2640945 and Bug 3621502
They are related to the disabling of the TCP socket-level acknowledgement which slows down remote communications for EJB components using ORMI (the protocol used by Oracle OC4J) to communicate between remote EJB client and server.
A BC4J Application Module deployed as an EJB suffers this same network latency penalty due to the TCP acknowledgement.
A customer sent me information (that you'll see there as a part of Bug# 3621502) like this on a related issue:
We found our application runs very slow in 3-Tier mode (JClient, BC4J deployed
as EJB Session Bean on 9iAS server 9.0.2 enterprise edition). We spent a lot
of time to tune up our codes but that helped very little. Eventually, we found
the problem seemed to happen on TCP level. There is a 200ms delay in TCP
level. After we read some documents about Nagle Algorithm, we disabled a
registry key (TcpDelAckTicks) in windows2000 on both client and server. This
makes our program a lot faster.
Anyway, we think we should provide our clients a better solution other than
changing windows registry for them, for example, there may be a way to disable
that Nagle's algorithm through java.net.Socket.setTcpNoDelay(true), in BC4J,
or anywhere in our codes. We have not figured out yet.
Bug 2640945 was fixed in Oracle Application Server 10g (v9.0.4) and it now disables this TCP Acknowledgement on the server side in that release. In the BugDB, I see backport patches available for earlier 9.0.3 and 9.0.2 releases of IAS as well.
Bug 3621502 is requesting that that same disabling also be performed on the client side by the ORMI code. I have received a test patch from development to try out, but haven't had the chance yet.
The customer's workaround in the interim was to disable this TCP Acknowledgement at the OS level by modifying a Windows registry setting as noted above.
See Also http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=328890
"New registry entry for controlling the TCP Acknowledgment (ACK) behavior in Windows XP and in Windows Server 2003" which documents that the registry entry to change disable this acknowledgement has a different name in Windows XP and Windows 2003.
Hope this info helps. It would be useful to hear back from you on whether this helps your performance issue.

The best way to get help with logic

I was posting in a thread on support for logic which appears to have been deleted. anyway, what I was going to say I think is useful info for people, so I'm going to post it anyway. to the mods - it doesn't contain any speculation about policies or anything like that. just an explanation of my views on the best way to deal with issues people have with logic, which I think is a valuable contribution to this forum.
I think there's a need for perspective. when you buy an apple product you get 90 days of free phone support to get everything working nice and neat. you can call them whenever, and you could actually keep them on the phone all day if you wanted, making them explain to you how to copy a file, install microsoft office, or any number of little questions no matter how simple - what is that red button thingy in my window for?.. on top of that, you've got a 14 day dead on arrival period (or 10 days I can't remember) in which if your machine has any kind of hardware fault whatsoever it's exchanged for a totally new one, no questions asked. a lot of people complain that applecare is overpriced.. and if you think of it just as an extended warranty, then it is a little pricey. but if you are someone that could use a lot of phone support, then it's actually potentially a total bargain. the fact that 2 or more years after you bought a computer, you could still be calling them every single day, asking for any kind of advice on how to use anything on the machine, is quite something. many people on this forum have had problems when they made the mistake of upgrading to 10.4.9 without first creating a system clone or checking first with their 3rd party plug in vendors to make sure it was ok. so, with apple care, you could call them and keep a technician on the phone _all day_ talking you through step-by-step how to back up all of your user data, how to go through and preserve your preferences and any other specific settings you might not want to lose, and then how to rollback to an earlier OS version.. they'll hold your hand through the whole thing if you need them to.
as for applecare support for pro apps like logic, I'd be the first person to agree that it's not great for anyone except beginners and first time users. if you look at what it takes to get even the highest level of logic certification, it's all pretty basic stuff. and logic doesn't exist in a vacuum, there is an entire universe of 3rd party software and hardware, as well as studio culture and advanced user techniques that are going to be totally invisible to some poor phone support guy at apple that did a logic 101. but it's not hard to see that apple are trying to promote a different kind of support culture, it's up to you to decide whether you want to buy into it or not.
the idea is that they are able to provide basic setup support for new users, including troubleshooting. because it's a simpler level of support, at least they can do this well. so there's no reason why any new user with say a new imac and logic can't get up and running with the 90 days of phone support they get for free.
but the thing is, for extremely high end pro users it's a different matter altogether. pro use of logic within the context of say, a studio or a film composition scenario is a very different world. it's almost a nonsense to imagine that apple could even hire people capable of giving useful support for this end of the spectrum, over the phone. there are so many variables, and so many things that require a very experienced studio person or in-work composer to even begin to understand the setup, let alone troubleshoot it. and it's a constantly evolving world, you actually have to be working in it and aware of developments on 3rd party fronts as well as changes in hardware.. not to mention even changes in the culture of studio production and the changed expectations that come from that. there's no way some poor little guy sitting at a help desk at apple can even hope to be privy to that kind of knowledge. it's already good enough that they don't outsource their support staff to india, let alone go out to studios and hire the very people with the skills that should be staying in the studio! not answering phones for apple.
so, given this reality.. companies have two choices. they can either offer an email based support ticket system, which others do. but in my opinion.. this can just be frustrating and only a half-solution. sure you 'feel' like you are getting a response from the people that make the software and therefore must know it.. but it's not really the case due to what I said above. DAWs don't exist in a vacuum, and so much of what you need to understand to help people requires an intimate knowledge of the music industry in which they are working. you still won't get that from steinberg, even if they sort of answer your emails. the other problem is that this kind of system can mean sporadic answers, a lot of tail-chasing, and quite often you won't get an answer that helps you in the end anyway.
the other model is to foster a strong user support culture. some people react in the wrong way to this idea.. they just think it's a big brush off from the manufacturer, saying we don't care, go sort it out yourselves.. but this isn't true. apple has a classification for pro resellers called 'apple solutions expert - audio'. what this means is that these dealers are recognised as audio specialists and they can receive extra support and training from apple for this. but more importantly than this.. most of them are music stores, or pro gear dealerships that are also mac and logic dealers. they already employ people that have worked or do work in the music industry, and are constantly on top of all of this stuff. apple encourages these dealers to run workshops, and to provide expert sales advice in the very niche area that logic is in, which they can do far better than some generic apple store ever could. but most importantly, they are encouraged to offer their own expert after-sales support and whatever other value-adding expertise they can, to get sales. because margins in computer gear are so tight nowadays, discounting is not really a viable option for these dealers to guarantee getting musicians to buy computers and logic setups from them. the only companies that can entice people with a lower price a big online wholesalers or big chain stores. so the best idea for these niche expert stores to get sales is to offer you their own experts to help with configuration, ongoing support and to generally make it a better idea that you bought your system from them rather than from some anonymous online store. I can see the wisdom of this.. it puts the support back out there on the ground where it's needed, and also where it can work best. apple could never hope to offer the same level of expertise in helping a film composer work through some issues with a specific interface or some highly specific issue they have with getting a task done. no big software manufacturer could do this anywhere near as well as people out there that have worked in studios or currently do work in studios. so in my opinion it's a far better model to foster this kind of support culture, along with training courses, books and training video support. also user forums like this one are possibly one of the most valuable ports of call anyone could ask for. apple couldn't replicate this with their own staff, even if they tried. and even if they made a system where some of the people close to logic development were able to answer emails, it would still be nowhere near as useful, as rapid or as capable of being up to speed with logic use out in the real world with 3rd pary gear, as any of these other methods are.
the only thing I think they could do better would be to publish a list of known bugs which are officially recognised. this would help everyone and put an end to a lot of wasted time and speculation on if something is a bug totally to do with logic, or if it's a specific issue raised by a particular configuration.
but really, in my view, a 3rd party support and training culture through a combination of specialist dealers, consultants that literally run a business setting up computers for pro-users and helping them keep it all working, online user-to-user forums and published materials really are the way forward.

In all honesty this is currently the 3rd "logicboard" (motherboard)
in my powerbook due to a design flaw regarding the 2nd memory slot....
Yep. Mine failed five weeks after I bought it. However, I bought it for work and couldn't afford being without it for four weeks while they fixed it, so I had to live with it. My serial number did not entitle me to a replacement either, post Applecare.
My firewire ports have burnt out from a third-party defective device (no hot-plugging involved)
My screen is blotchy (my PW serial number did not entitle me to a replacement).
My battery serial number did not entitle me to a replacement, and is not that good these days.
My guaranteed Powerbook-compatible RAM is actually not, causing RAM related problems, most notably these days meaning that as soon as I switch to battery power, the laptop crashes, so I can only use mains power. The company I bought it from stopped taking my calls and wouldn't replace it after they replaced it once, so I'm stuck with it. And of course, only one ram slot is working, so I can't even use my original stick in the first slot, which would shift the dodgy stuff away from the lower system area.
My power supply failed at the weak spot and caught fire. I managed to break apart the power supply and recable it so I didn't have to buy a new power supply, although the connection at the laptop end is loose (all the more fun that as soon as power is lost, the laptop crashes - see above). The power supply is held together with gaffa tape. Silver gaffer tape though, so it's still kind of 'Appley"...
My internal hard drive is dying - four or five times now it clicks and won't power up, causing the laptop to die.
One foot has fallen off (but glued back on).
The lid is warped.
The hinge is loosish.
The S-Video adaptor cable is intermittent.
But aside from all that, I have looked after it well, and I love it to death. Just as well, because it doesn't look like it will be that long...
But it still "just works". Apart from the battery power obviously. And the ram slot. And the ram. And the screen. And the hard drive. And the firewire ports. And the feet.
But everything apart from the main board, the screen, the case, the hard drive and the power supply works fine. So thats... er..
Hmm.

I need help with an Apple ID problem...

I own a Macbook and an iPod touch, I have downloaded numerous apps for the iPod over the years. 18 months ago my boyfriend got an iPhone 3GS and created an Apple ID but it would not let him download apps due to some kind of issue registering his bank card. At the time I tried to sort it out and told him to get in touch with Apple support but he was impatient and wanted to start getting apps right away so I caved in and let him use my Apple ID. The next day I realised this was a stupid thing to do when all his apps started appearing in my iTunes. However I didn't see it as too much of a problem at the time...
Tomorrow I am going to pick up my shiny new iPhone 5 (my first iPhone ) and I am worried about plugging it into my Mac and having all these apps that I really don't want around in my iTunes. I am imagining an absolute pain in the bum trying to sort all these apps out and syncing them to the right devices? I would absolutely love to just shift all his apps over to his Apple ID, he has loads of stuff that he needs to keep now. He does not have a computer himself, but there is no real need to plug his iPhone into my macbook ever again. After having a quick read around the forums, there seems to be no simple answer to this problem. If anyone could help with this I would be extremely grateful!

You can't. All apps are forever tied to the ID used to originally obtain them. In your case, that would be your ID. He really needs to get his own ID, delete these apps, then purchase them using his ID.
For you, just delete what you don't want from your iTunes library.

Mail.app - Applescript - Looking for help with my 1st Applescript

Okay… so I am taking the plunge. I've finally found something that is bugging me enough that I want to make a script to resolve it.
*Here's the situation:*
I use Smart Mailboxes a lot. It's my primary window into dealing with email.
I use MailTags (an addon for Mail) to apply keywords to messages, via Mail Act-On rules (an addon by the same company).
I use Smart Mailboxes to show me messages with various keywords etc.
What I have found is that Smart Mailboxes do NOT automatically update themselves. For instance, when a message in the Smart Mailbox is changed in such a way that the filter on that mailbox should not display it, the message will still sit there until I either leave the mailbox and return, or hit Rebuil in the Mailbox menu.
The same applies for when new mail comes into my Inbox. If there is new mail that qualifies for inclusion in the smart mailbox I am currently viewing, it will not appear until I do one of the above two things.
What I discovered was this script:
tell application "Mail" to activate
tell application "System Events"
click menu item "Rebuild" in menu ¬
"Mailbox" in menu bar 1 of process "Mail"
end tell
This is what got me thinking about scripting a solution.
The other option is to assign a keyboard shortcut to the Rebuild command. But I would like the Rebuild to take place automatically when I apply certain rules to messages. I want my Mail Act-on rule to trigger the a Rebuild. I figure I can do this by having it trigger the Rebuild script shown above.
*HERE IS MY QUESTION:*
Is there a way to have the script check what the currently active/selected Mailbox is? Or, put another way, can I get it to NOT run if certain mailboxes are selected?
Here's what I am thinking.
Under no circumstances do I want this script to be triggered if the current mailbox is NOT a smart mailbox, and IS any of my IMAP mailboxes… most especially the Inboxes. That would trigger a complete cleaning out and rebuilding of the entire IMAP inbox, which has many gigs of mail in it.
What I am trying to figure out, and would love some help with, is how I can make sure this script ONLY runs when the current mailbox is either ANY smart mailbox, or NOT an IMAP mailbox, or some other logic that keeps it from running in an IMAP mailbox.
Any tips are greatly appreciated.
With thanks,
Jonathan

Thanks Camalot,
I appreciate your help with this. I am also enjoying learning more about AppleScript. It seems much easier that other scripting languages, if for no other reason that it uses basic english logic and words.
When I run your script with an inbox selected, I get the following Result:
tell application "Mail"
get selected mailboxes of message viewer 1
--> {mailbox "INBOX" of account "JE Gmail"}
end tell
Result:
{mailbox "INBOX" of account "JE Gmail" of application "Mail"}
When I run it with a smart mailbox selected the following is produced:
tell application "Mail"
get selected mailboxes of message viewer 1
--> {current application}
end tell
Result:
{application "Mail"}
So get the impression it's not throwing up an error. Certainly, either way it does not run what I put into the On Error section, which was simply
display dialog "Success"
Is this useful? Can I test if the output contains the word "INBOX" ?
I notice that if I have, for instance, a SENT folder select, it gives the following result:
Result:
{mailbox "INBOX/Sent Messages" of account "[email protected]" of application "Mail"}
Which again has the word INBOX in there. Drafts comes up a little different.
Result:
{mailbox "Drafts ([email protected])" of application "Mail"}
So if there was a way to parse the result through a test against "INBOX" "DRAFT" etc then this might work. What do you think?
I have no idea how to go about that though, so your input would be very helpful.
Thanks,

Help with using multiple hard drives

Is there a way to install the OS on an "external" (expresscard SSD) drive, but have all of the library and data files on the primary hard disk? I LOVE the speed on my SSD, but it's a pain finding stuff now. Is this something a RAID configuration could help with?

I have a 1 TB hard drive; but I have a 500GB and 250GB usb external hard drives.
Wouldn't it be cool if I could make the two external hard drives a RAID drive and use Time Machine to use all the 750GB of external memory to do my backups???
You can, but I would +*strongly recommend against+* it. See +Concatenated RAID+ in the Help for Disk Utility.
There are several potential problems:
Depending on how much data is on your 1 TB drive, 750 GB may not be enough to back it up. See #1 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
To set up a +Concatenated RAID+ set, both drives will be erased.
When (not if) either drive fails, you'll lose all the data on both.
Both drives must be connected any time you do a backup or want to browse your backups.
Especially with USB, if one drive wakes from sleep, or spins up, quickly enough, but the other one doesn't, the backup may fail and/or your backups may be corrupted.
For now, it looks like my only solution is to go buy a bigger external hard drive and spend more money,,,
That's your best solution +*by far.+* Anything else is taking a large risk with your backups.

Need help with my usecase based on transient ViewObject

I am using 11.1.1.4.0 Jdev version. I need help with my usecase.Been trying it for 2 days but couldn't figure out the issue.
I have a transientVO . In this VO Rows will be populated programmatically. CountryId is an attribute of this VO. I have created a viewAccessor "CountriesVA" from Country VO of HR schema.
I have a LOV for the countryId which is based on this VA ,getting countries from CountryTable.
This is the model part which works fine.
Before the page load i have called a method to create a row for this transientVO.Once the row is created i can see the SOC in my page which i have created as below.
Now i want to insert a row in the transientVO if user selects a country and restrict duplicate entry . (As One row is already created 1st time there will be no rows created.after that rows will be inserted)
The issue is :: Suppose there are 2 countries. A & B .When user does the following actions :
Insert A . Done //as 1st entry
Insert B . Done //as 1st time entry
Insert A . duplicate not inserted
Insert B . getting inserted // the bug.

I read the reply from Andrejus Baranovskis and thought of studying and implementing that in my useCase.Well it worked . I implemented the same Logic but rowIteration was done in AppModule.

9.7.6 What You May Need to Know About Programmatic Row Set Iteration
The problem is solved ,the above links helped me solve the problem.
what i did is i have created a method in appmodule to iterate rows and all the method y operation bindings and my logic works fine ....
MY Advice to all Adf developers ,though i am not an expert but i can assure you to follow the above process for rowIteration.If you use the iterator binding in the manage bean to navigate the rows u'll face issues which are unexpected.
In AppModule :::::
    public boolean createRow(String oldValue,String newValue){
     System.err.println(oldValue+""+newValue);
      ViewObjectImpl vo=getViewObj1();
      boolean duplicate=false;
      if(oldValue!=null){
      RowSetIterator iter = vo.createRowSetIterator(null);
      System.err.println("iterating rows ");
         while (iter.hasNext()) {
             Row r = iter.next();
             System.err.println(iter.getRangeIndexOf(r)+" row is "+r.getAttribute("CountryId"));
             if(r.getAttribute("CountryId").toString().equals(newValue)){
                 duplicate=true;
                 break;
             // Do something with the current row.
         // close secondary row set iterator
         iter.closeRowSetIterator();
      return duplicate;
In ManageBean :::::
    public void countryIdVC(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent) {
        // Add event code here...
        String oldValue=null;
       System.err.println("Old Value"+valueChangeEvent.getOldValue());
          setEL("#{bindings.CountryId.inputValue}", valueChangeEvent.getOldValue());
          if(evaluateEL("#{bindings.CountryId.attributeValue}")!=null)
         oldValue =evaluateEL("#{bindings.CountryId.attributeValue}").toString();
                setEL("#{bindings.CountryId.inputValue}", valueChangeEvent.getNewValue());
        String newValue=evaluateEL("#{bindings.CountryId.attributeValue}").toString();
        BindingContainer bindings = BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
         //access the name of the iterator the table is bound to. Its "allDepartmentsIterator"
         //in this sample
         DCIteratorBinding dciter = (DCIteratorBinding) bindings.get("ViewObj1Iterator");
         //access the underlying RowSetIterator
         RowSetIterator rsi = dciter.getRowSetIterator();
         if(oldValue!=null){
                      rsi.getCurrentRow().setAttribute("CountryId", oldValue);
           OperationBinding operation = bindings.getOperationBinding("createRow");
           operation.getParamsMap().put("oldValue", oldValue);
           operation.getParamsMap().put("newValue", newValue);
      if(!(Boolean)operation.execute()){
      //get handle to the last row
      Row lastRow = rsi.last();
      //obtain the index of the last row
      int lastRowIndex = rsi.getRangeIndexOf(lastRow);
      //create a new row
      Row newRow = rsi.createRow();
      newRow.setAttribute("CountryId", newValue);
      //initialize the row
      newRow.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);
      //add row to last index + 1 so it becomes last in the range set
      System.err.println("Inserting row at index "+lastRowIndex+1);
      rsi.insertRowAtRangeIndex(lastRowIndex +1, newRow);
      //make row the current row so it is displayed correctly
      rsi.setCurrentRow(newRow);
      else{
        System.err.println("Data found So not inserting,only setting current Row");
      Key key =new Key(new Object[] { newValue});
        rsi.setCurrentRow(rsi.getRow(key));

Quick help with css display in IE7

Hi, I haven't been on this forum in ages - I have a slight display glitch would love some help with:
http://magma.ie/magmablog-html/index.html
It looks great in the latest and greatest browser (IMHO!): - firefox 3.5.6
http://cl.ly/17cD
but IE7 pops the search field in the sidebar off to the right, at least, according to browsershots.org
http://cl.ly/1A1f
Thanks, H

It looks OK in IE8 but IE7 is having trouble with the #Sidebar width.

Seriously Need Help With Lightbox Widget In Dreamweaver

Hi guys, I seriously need your help with this widget.
I'm not exactly new to Dreamweaver and I've been working on a particular website. Everything was going well until I dropped the Lightbox widget into the page.
Lightbox gallery displays, but opens images in a new window on its own. Here's an example;
http://imagesbylady.co.nz/photomike/HTML/promogallery.html
Yet, when I drop the widget into a completely separate page from the website, it works absolutely fine. Like here;
http://imagesbylady.co.nz/photomike/HTML/testing.html
I have exhausted this entire forum on the subject. I don't understand how the widget can work on a blank html page but when dropped into an already designed webpage, it breaks....!
If you need to have a look at the coding so you can help me further let me know. I've been on this for a total of 11 hours and I still can't figure out what the problem is. Seriously....i'm nearly close to tears! ;-(
If you could help me out I would be forever grateful.
Lots of Love
Lady xx
