How do I type foreign characters by using ALT+.... method?

Hello,
How do I get foreign characters from the Character Map using the ALT+... method?  For example, the Character Map tells me that to get the small letter "a" with a tilde (ã), I should type "Keystroke: Alt+0227".  How do I actually type this and get this numeric code?
Any ideas?  On older computers, I could access a 10-key numeric set of keys.
Thanks,
Kelly

  • How can i get a file header using this method cl_gui_frontend_services= gui

    Hi Experts,
    How can i get a file header using this method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can use the FM - GUI_DOWNLOAD to specify the headers. It can be done in the following manner -
    TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_head, "Structure for header
                 h(10) TYPE c,
                 END OF ty_head.
    DATA: it_head  TYPE TABLE OF ty_head WITH HEADER LINE.
    "Adding header details
    it_head-h = 'Field1'.
    APPEND it_head.
    it_head-h = 'Field2'.
    APPEND it_head.
    it_head-h = 'Field3'.
    APPEND it_head.
    it_head-h = 'Field4'.
    APPEND it_head.
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
      EXPORTING
        filename                        = p_file
       filetype                        = 'ASC'
       write_field_separator           = 'X'
       header                          = '00'  "<= note this
      TABLES
        data_tab                        = it_tab
       fieldnames                      = it_head[] "<= Pass your header table here
    EXCEPTIONS
       OTHERS                          = 1.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    actually there's none. The UITableView class needs to "know" the tableView's height so either it can calc <number of rows> times <row height> or it has to sum the height of each single row.
    If the row which needs to be of different size always is the first or the last row you can user a tableHeader or tableFoot view.

  • Problem downloading photo elements 12. got message missing "file archive" using alt method with f# 2

    problem  with download for photo elements 12. got message as I downloaded file 2 (using alt method) that I was miss the "file archive"

    Firstly, there's no such thing as Apache 9.3, there's Apache 1 (and subversions) and Apache 2 (and subversions). Your error message -
    Oracle-HTTP-Server/1.3.28Shows you're using Apache 1.3.28
    Secondly, I'm confused by your comment -
    I do not have Apache 9.3 or higher but I think oracle should offer this in its companion CDOracle does offer the Apache server, if you're saying you didn't get it from Oracle then where did your Apache server come from?
    Thirdly, I notice from your config file -
    ErrorLog "|E:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Companion\Apache\Apache\bin\rotatelogs logs/error_log 43200"That you're piping the logs through rotatelogs, are you sure the logfiles haven't just been renamed?

  • How do I type foreign letters into english documents?

    With my PC I knew how to insert foreign letters into documents using ASCII codes.  But I can't figure out how to do these on my Mac.  Does anyone know? 

    Typing special characters and symbols
    Use the Character Viewer to enter special characters and symbols, such as mathematical symbols, letters with accent marks, or arrows and other “dingbats,” into your documents.
    You can also use the Character Viewer to enter Japanese, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean characters, as well as characters from other languages.
    To show the Character Viewer:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Language & Text, and then click Input Sources.
    Open the Input Sources pane of Language & Text preferences
    Select the Keyboard & Character Viewer checkbox. 
    To use the Character Viewer:
    Open a document, and place the insertion point where you want the special character or symbol to appear.
    Choose Edit > Special Characters to open the Character Viewer, or choose Show Character Viewer from the Input menu in the menu bar (looks like a flag or character).
    Choose the type of characters you want to see from the View pop-up menu.If you don’t see the View pop-up menu, click the button in the upper-right corner of the Character Viewer to show the top portion of the window.
    Click By Category, and then select a category on the left.Double-click the symbol you want to use on the right.
    If the character doesn’t appear in your document, you may be using an application that doesn’t support that character. Try using a different character or inserting the character in a different application.
    You can also use the Keyboard Viewer to type special characters and symbols.

  • How can I type Korean characters with Firefox 4?

    I upgraded to Firefox 4 and now I have difficulty typing Korean characters. When I switch my keyboard to Korean and start typing, the characters go to a bar on the bottom of the browser. It is not even a bar for inserting text. There is no insert button and it only allows me to type one syllable block.
    I found a temporary, but still frustrating, fix by going View -> Character Encoding -> Customize List and adding one of the Korean character encodings. When I ran out of encodings, it worked simply to click OK, and I would able to type in Korean. But now I can only type in Korean for a few syllables or on one tab before the system reverts to disallowing me to type Korean characters.
    Is there something I can do to permanently fix this, or should I resign myself to waiting for an update or downgrading to Firefox 3? I like Firefox 4 with the exception of this Korean character issue.

    That is up to Delicious or whoever created their Firefox extension to fix, not something for Mozilla to fix.
    See this article which explains how to fix compatibility in the Delicious extension to get it to work in Firefox 4.0.x versions. <br />

  • How to set the full screen mode using setClip method

    hi all,
    how to set the full screen mode using setClip in that softkeys should not be used insteat on that need to create a own softkeys using commands.
    thanks & regards
    Bala.

    In CS5 there are changes made to how the screen mode is reported. In CS3-CS5 the screen mode has a corresponding number. So for instance if the ScreenMode is set to "Preview Off" and you ask indesign CS3 or CS4 to display the screen mode, it will report "1936552047", while in CS5 it will report "PREVIEW_OFF".
    try executing this simple command in respectively CS3, CS4 and CS5 and you will see what I am talking about:
    alert(app.activeWindow.screenMode);
    there is no difference if you do:
    alert(app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode);
    The CS5 solution is rather awkward to work with, unless I am missing something? PREVIEW_OFF is not a string, nor is it a number.
    Example -  doing:
    myScreenMode=app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode;
    and then trying to reset screenMode by something like:
    app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode= myScreenMode
    does not work in CS5 of course. It will throw an error. Neither will this line work:
    app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode=ScreenModeOptions.myScreenMode;
    Any way of working around this?

  • How to support non alphanumeric characters when using WORLD_LEXER?

    BASIC_LEXER has an attribute of printjoins which we can specify the non alphanumberic characters as normal alphanumberic in query and included with the token. However, WORLD_LEXER doesn't have this attribute. So in order to use some non alphanumberic characters and treat them as alphanumberic characters in Oracle Text Index, such as ><$, what should I can?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I use WORLD_LEXER to create Oracle Text Index to support UTF-8.
    Below is the script to create table and index:
    REM Create table
    CREATE TABLE my_test
    ( id VARCHAR2(32 BYTE) NOT NULL,
    code VARCHAR2(100 BYTE) NOT NULL,
         CONSTRAINT "my_test_pk" PRIMARY KEY ("id"));
    REM create index
    exec ctx_ddl.create_preference('stars_lexer','WORLD_LEXER');
    exec ctx_ddl.create_preference('stars_wordlist', 'BASIC_WORDLIST');
    exec ctx_ddl.set_attribute('stars_wordlist','substring_index','TRUE');
    exec ctx_ddl.set_attribute('stars_wordlist','PREFIX_INDEX','TRUE');
    -- create index for Table corrosion level
    CREATE INDEX my_test_index
    ON my_test(code)
    INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
    PARAMETERS ('LEXER stars_lexer STOPLIST stars_stop WORDLIST stars_wordlist SYNC(EVERY "SYSDATE+5/1440") TRANSACTIONAL');
    INSERT INTO my_test('1', 'English word1');
    INSERT INTO my_test('2', '违违');
    INSERT INTO my_test('3', '违违&^|违违');
    When I query:
    select * from corrosion_levels r where contains(r.CORROSION_LEVEL, '{%违${|违%}') > 0
    ID CODE
    3 违违$(|违违
    2 违违
    Actually, the result what I want is: 3 违违$(|违违
    So the requirement is that all non-alphanumeric characters should be treated as normal alphanumeric charcters. Please tell me how to implement it.

  • How a payment type can be customised using - pay_magtape_generic.new_formula

    Hi All,
    We are working on R12.1.3 for South Africa legislation. The electronic payment method used over here is ACB. In the payment type window (responsibility Global HRMS Manager) we notice a procedure "pay_magtape_generic.new_formula" attached with this. And would like to know the use of this procedure. Is it to customize the EFT, if yes, How? Any note, document or guidance will be much helpful.
    Thanks,
    Avinash

    Hi Avinash,
    Did you check this note -
    International HR and Payroll (Doc ID 261452.1)
    Create Payment Types You can define legislative specific payment types through the Define Payment Types window. When creating the Electronic File Transfer (EFT) payment type, you must also provide a named packaged procedure. This procedure defines how the EFT file should be created. This is applicable to releases prior to R12.1 HRMS RUP5.
    R12.1 HRMS RUP5 (13418800) delivers Direct Deposit functionality for International Payroll. If you want to use the Direct Deposit functionality for creating the electronic file then you can specify the predefined procedure pay_magtape_generic.new_formula. The procedure has the logic to generate XML file with employer, employee, and payment details. You can customize the template to meet the country specific requirement to produce the EFT file.
    You can choose to use either the predefined procedure pay_magtape_generic.new_formula or create your own procedure to define how the EFT file should be created while running the Process Direct Deposit (International Payroll).

  • How can I type special characters on bootcamp?

    Hello,
    I try to find a way to type specials caracters on windows that I used to type on my PC with the combination ALT+XXXX where X are numbers. I have search here (https://discussions.apple.com/message/17571606#17571606 https://discussions.apple.com/message/12157759#12157759) and on the net but I'm still not able to type them.
    Does anyone has found a solution to this?
    I know that I can use the caracter table embedded in windows but that's not very convenient when you need to regularly type special caracters.
    I have a MBP retina with Win7 x64 on bootcamp.
    Thank you

    For Wondows, see THIS web page for the ALT codes.
    For Mac, see THIS web page for the character pallette.
