How fix .mpp file?

I have a MS Project file (2013 .mpp format) with many procedures, user forms, etc. The file has corrupted by unknown reason and now I cannot open it at .

If you can't open the file in MS Project, and none of the other MVP FAQ methods are working for you, then the native libraries in VBA aren't going to be able to open it either
I'm afraid. However, that's not to say it's irrecoverable just yet. Here are a couple of ideas:
Different Version of Project - You don't say which version of MS Project you're using, but I've had a corrupt file in the past which would not open in 2007, but we were able to
open it in 2010. If you can get access to another version of MSP then that might fix it (I have an instance of 2010 available now if you want to send the file to me to try).
2013 has been available for some time now - I've not used it yet, but it may be even more robust than 2010 when it comes to handling corrupt data. Different Application - There
are a number of viewer applications out there - just google "MPP Viewer", and as they don't use the MS libraries, they may be able to open files that MS Project can't.
Some of these applications are free, and some are free and online, so you may be able to get access to the data that way. the only viewers I've used give you a means of viewing but
not saving the project file, but you may be able to copy/paste data into a fresh MPP file. Recent Back-up - I assume you've exhausted the possibility of getting a recent back-up of the file? You'll have lost some work, but redoing a couple of days work on
the schedule may be less painful than the next option... Bespoke Coding Using MPXJ - There is a library called MPXJ which allows you to access MPP files from within .Net.
If you absolutely had to get this data, then you could write a VB.Net application in Visual Studio using this library, and there's a chance that this library may give you access
to the data. Once accessed, the library allows you to save in other formats (i.e. other than MPP) which you may then be able to reopen in MS Project, then resave as an MPP file. It's a nuclear option, and is likely to be expensive and/or time consuming, but
if you absolutely have to get the data, and there are no recent backups, this could be an option. I hope this is helpful, and hope you get to the bottom of it.
Try: Project Repair Kit. An absolute must-have for anyone willing to find
out how to repair MS Project file contents with a few clicks and without leaving their workplace. This corrupt MS Project file repair software saves money and time
by letting users restore their data on their own and forget about expensive specialized services.

How to handle a fixed length file without newline?

Hi Experts,
I'd like to handle a fixed length file without newline by sender file adapter.
A file like following.
It contains three recores."AAXBBBXCCCCX" is one record.
AA1BBB1CCCC1AA2BBB2CCCC2AA3BBB3CCCC3
I tried that following two parameters set. But only first recored was read.
fieldFixedLengths
fieldFixedLengthType
Please tell me how to handle.
Thanks
Shinya Kawagoe.

For this case we wrote a simple Adapter Module inserting an end of line character after an offset.
This way it can be reused in many interfaces.
And reading the whole file may not be an option in case of large source files. May cause performance / memory issues.
eolbean.offset = <recordLlen>
XMLPayload xmlpayload = msg.getDocument();
byte[] content = xmlpayload.getContent();
byte crlf = 0x0A;
int current = 0;
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int lines = content.length / recordLen;
do
     lines--;
     baos.write(content, current, recordLen);
     if (lines > 0) // if other lines, eol required
          baos.write(crlf);
          current += recordLen;
} while (lines > 0);
xmlpayload.setContent(baos.toByteArray());
baos.close();
Audit.addAuditLogEntry(key, AuditLogStatus.SUCCESS,     MODULE + " Done EOLing.");

How to handle fixed lenth files in OSB

Hi all,
I will get a fixed length file as below
length 1 to 512
ISA00 00 086120930000 090162840692000 1012081221U003060000010710P>
GS PO6120930000 016284069 1012081221000001071X 003060
I want to convert these file to xml so that i can perform some transformation in it .
The challenge is we cant achieve this with MFL reason GS is optional you wont know you will get it or not .like that you have many elements optional non-option complex elements we are not able to achieve this . We raised a SR with oracle support they said it is not possible with MFL .
I can do this with NXSD but this fixed length file i will get it in JMS queue and OSB doesn't support JMS Adapter .So how will convert this fixed lenth file to xml in OSB.
Thanks
Phani

Hi atheek,
Thanks for the response .
Can you share me u r mail ID i will share the flat file and optional and non - optional elements and input . if possible create a MFL and share with me .
i am trying with MFL its not working .Its urgent.

How to create a fixed length file

Can anyone suggest a simple technique for creating fixed
length files? CSV and delimited files are pretty simple using
CFFILE. Is there an elegant way to create fixed length
files?

Simplest: Use LJustify() or RJustify() on your lines of data.
EG:

MS Project Professional 2007 resource loaded .mpp file published to EPM server but resources can't see their tasks in PWA

Hi all:
I'm using MS Project Professional 2007 and I created the schedule as an .mpp file and assigned resources before I loaded the schedule to the EPM server. I created the resource names consistently with the names in the Enterprise resource pool and when I go into
tools / assign resources and filter on enterprise resources, I see the resources I assigned to my project associated with the correct tasks. The only problem is that when these resources go into PWA, they can't see their assigned tasks even after I save and
publish the project. If I create a new resource assignment while I am connected to the server, then the resource can see the new assignment, but I don't want to have to completely recreate the project assignments to remedy this situation. Can anyone tell me
another way to fix it so that resources begin to see their assignments in PWA and can enter their time there?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
David

Hey Dale. Published = Yes on all tasks. That's not it.
But you definitely hit the mark on Assignment Owner. That must be where the problem is. When I read that I remembered that when I go into PWA all the project tasks show up under My Tasks, which seemed wrong to me and I asked the administrator
about that. he told me it was because I was the project owner. Now I know that was not a correct response on his part and I'll point it out to him.
I did check the Resources and Assignment Owner was blank. I tried to set it to be the Resource and it's a locked field. I can't do it. It doesn't surprise me that this field is locked because I suspect the administrator controls the
Enterprise Resource pool. But what does it tell you that this field is blank. Since I'm getting the tasks in my My Task list, I expected to find my name there.
Anything else I should check?
Anything I should tell the admin about how to make the Resources the owners of their own tasks. I assume that should be the default. That can be corrected just as easily in the Resource Sheet View as in the Resource Usage view, I assume
-- is that correct?
Thanks again for helping me figure out what the problem is.

How do I file a complaint about horrible, incompetent and negligent customer service?

I might sound super rambling but I am very frustrated and just tired of explaining the situation over and over and over.
On Wednesday, January 21st, I got a call from Verizon Loyalty Department about a "promotion", which I get $25 credit on each line if I upgrade with edge plan. I wasn't sure what phone to change, so I asked them to call me back on Friday. They called me on Thursday, but I couldn't get the call, so I called them on Friday and talked to the customer service. I wasn't still sure about the upgrades, so I asked them about the upgrades with $25 credit would still apply several weeks later if I decide to upgrade, the first representative whom I've talked to looked at my plan and said something like, "Yes, that is absolutely possible. I was looking through your plan, and since you are a loyal customer and ended your 2 year contract with us, I can give you $25 off on your each line. I asked them would I still get the $25 credit for each line when I upgrade to edge plan. He said yes because the $25 off that he is giving me is for the monthly charge and the edge plan $25 credit was for the equipment charges. So Month to Month $25 off was applied on the Jan 24th, and activated on 29th.
After I finally decided to upgrade my phone, I called Verizon customer service the next week. I do not recall the exact day but on 28th or 29th I called to upgrade it, and the second representative also assured me that the credits were going to happen, and then he offered me to bump down my data to 6 gb from 8 gb to save money because I use less then 6 gb each month. I bumped down to 6gb loyalty plan so I was only paying $60 per month instead of $70 per month. The representative told me I would be only paying around $120 per month. I forgot to ask my sister what phone she wanted to change, so I didn't upgrade it right a way. So only the data plan changed on that day.
I was extremely busy with my work for few weeks, and I finally called again to upgrade it, the third representative told me different old me that the previous representative was wrong about giving me another $25 credit when I upgrade with edge plan. So I ended up upgrading both of my lines with $25 credit on each line plus $60 for 6gb data. But she said I would be still paying less then what I normally pay, which is around $183. I upgraded and took me few days to receive my phone. I checked my bill and it was showing different than what I was told. I called again and explain all this thing again and the lady adjusted my data plan - 6gb loyalty plan for $50. She said she doesn't know what other representative was doing, but this will fix that I would only pay around $150-160 per month. After I got my phone, I called verizon to activate my phone (I don't really remember it was before or after, I just talked to them too many times and they have changed my promotions and plans too many times in very short time). He also confirmed $25 credit off for each line, but there was one time tax fee that none of the representative has mentioned while I asked bunch of questions about the upgrading fee and how much it would cost on the first month and etc.)
After all of that happened, I was settled and didn't think about the payment until I got $290 with only $15 credit on my bill. I called again and asked what happened and the representative told me she doesn't know why this happened and why the previous representatives told you something that weren't true. and I had to go through the explanation again. She said she fixed it and everything was taken care of.
I checked my bill today. My plan was changed to $90 for 6gb and I was paying $30 more than I originally paying which was around $180 and $50 more than I was supposed to pay. I called the representative today, explained the previous situation and asked why this happened. Basically he told me that all the previous representatives were lying to me. Are you kidding me? They were lying to me? How am I suppose to know if he wasn't "lying" to me? He said only thing he can do is change back to my original plan and amount, and I would pay $6 more than what I used to pay which was about $183.. I asked me if I would get the the 8gb back. He told me that isn't possible. The change did not happen so far. I am tired of calling verizon and more tired of getting different answers from different representative.
I am seriously concerning about changing my service to different carrier. I have to call the verizon every single month when there is a change in my plan. If they were really lying about the promotion and plan just to sell more service, they should be suspended or fired or something, and I need my money back for overcharged fee and need some kind of compensation for my wasted time and stress I got from this.

Okay. You are just missing the whole point, and I am not saying anything after this. I did go to the website to read about the edge plan after I got a call from the loyalty department. I asked the questions on some parts I didn't understand (or was confused of) to the representatives. But my main question was whether I was getting $25 credit and in what conditions. They all answered differently to the same question. (My original question - Do I get the $25 credit with edge plan?- One rep. offered me that month to month $25 off before my upgrade. Other rep. confirmed $25 off plus $25 credit with edge and offered bumping down data plan to save extra money. Another rep denied $25 off plus $25 credit with edge but confirmed decrease in my monthly payment by bumping down the data plan. Other rep denied both. You see what I am talking about? I asked one question to begin with: am I getting the $25 credit with edge upgrade plan - and they are the one who offered me different promotions and offers)
I also left the part that I actually went to the website and 'researched' the different plans that all the representatives were talking about after I hung up on the phone each time. I joined the forum today because I wanted to know where and how I could file the complaints on verizon customer service after today's call. I should have been more clear on what I was asking, but I thought I was clear enough on my title "How do I file a complaint...?" Yes I am angry at the fact I didn't get what I thought I was getting, but I am more frustrated the fact every single time I talked to the customer service I get an answer from the rep. I am on the phone, saying "Previous representative you've talked were wrong about this," or "They were lying." The representative, then, would fix my issue, but I would still get the conflicted bills. Don't I suppose to call the customer service to fix it? What's the customer service for if it's not for that?

Disable Save or Save As for Read Only mpp file

Hi,
I have a read only mpp file and need to make sure that it cannot be Saved / Saved As by anybody in Team. They should only have access to view the file.
How can enable a file which does not allow save / save as?

ihvarrived,
You didn't mention anything about being in a Project Server environment, so I assume Shiva's response has no meaning for you.
With regard to an approach to prevent unauthorized users from saving a file let me again stress that, in my opinion, the best approach for this issue is training. That has the great advantage of mutual respect and cooperative effort in a team environment.
To implement a more covert approach you will need to do the following:
1. With the file open go to Developer/Code group/Visual Basic
2. Hit the Project Explorer icon
3. In the Explorer hierarchy, under the VBAProject double click on the "ThisProject"
4. In the code window, paste the following code:
Private Sub project_open(ByVal pj As MSProject.Project)
MsgBox "This file is write protected. You can make changes" & vbCr & _
    "for temporary what-if scenarios, but you will not be" & vbCr & _
    "able to save without the correct password", vbExclamation, "Warning!"
End Sub
Private Sub project_beforesave(ByVal pj As MSProject.Project)
pass = InputBox("enter save password")
If pass <> "xyz" Then 'string in quotes is the password you chose for saving, "xyz" is for illustration only
    SelectAll
    EditDelete
End If
End Sub
5. While still in the code window, go to Tools/VBA Project Properties/Protection tab
6. Check the "Lock this project" option
7. Enter and confirm a password. It can be the same as your save password or a different password (This will insure that only you can view and modify the above code)
8. Hit OK, then File/Save [your filename] to capture your macro in the file. Note, at this point you will be required to enter your save password.
Be advised that if a user does attempt to save without the correct save password, the file will be zeroed out and saved (i.e. nothing). That means that whenever you save the file you should also save a backup under a different name, so you can restore the
file if necessary. I couldn't figure out a good way to work around this problem. If the user always tries a "Save As" this wouldn't be an issue, but if they chose "Save" and you don't have a backup, you're screwed.
If this answers your question or is at least helpful, please mark it accordingly.

How to backup files from other user logged in as administrator

RE: How to backup files from other user logged in as administrator AND/OR how to repair drive with "Invalid catalog PEOF"
Hello,
My MacBook Pro computer’s hard drive is not booting.
I booted with the base operating system and ran Disk utilities and I got the following messages:
    Invalid catalog PEOF
    The volume could not be verified completely.
    This disk needs to be repaired.
    Disk utility can’t repair this disk. Backup as many files as possible, reformat the disk,
    and restore your backed-up files.
The problem is that I have a couple of USERS set up on this computer, and it won’t let me backup the files of the second user. The folders are locked and I can’t access them, even though I am logged in as the administrator.
I made a boot disk on my other computer ( a MacPro Early 2008 ) desktop computer with the DiskWarrior 4.4 updater,
but it won’t boot on my MacBook Pro.
How can I backup these user files so that I can copy them back once I fix the drive?
or better yet, How can I repair the Invalid catalog PEOF on this drive?
Thank you in advance for your time!
Bill

Try using Disk Utility/Restore to copy the backup to a new location. Please note that this will reformat the destination partition which will erase all data.
Do a backup. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID.

How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks

How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks. I know the data is there but seems unaccessable because I may have changed the Computer or Owner name. Is there any way to fix that now?

Hi Linc,
my back-up data is managed by Time Machine; the actual data is on a second internal Hard Drive with a capacity of 1TB - not partitioned. I am using Time Machine and have access to all data backed up since Mavericks Clean Install but not the data prior to this date.
When I open the 1TB drive in Finder I can see a folder "Backups.backupdb/Sigi's Mac Pro/ followed by many folders of backup dates going back to 2010-09-20-103441 and up to 2014-02-07-142414 all followed with folder Macintosh HD. February 7th 2014 was the date of the clean install.
These Backups are followed by backup date folder 2014-02-08-075554 with a subfolder of MacPro-320GB (this is the name I assigned to my Boot Drive during formatting; I suspect I should have assigned the same name as before ie. Macintosh HD) and 2014-02-11 with a subfolder Macintosh HD, these are the ones I get access to by way of Time Machine > Restore.
Weird thing is on Febr 11 when I relised my possible mistake and renamed the Bootdrive back to what it was initially ie. Macintosh HD despite this I have access to all backup data since the Clean Install in both folders MacPro-320GB as well as Macintosh HD but not to any data prior to the Clean Install.
Is there something that Time Machine knows and prevents access or is it simply a matter of renaming the subfolder 2014-02-08-07554/MacPro-320GB to ........./Macintosh HD?
I like to restore selectively and not everything - It was hard work reinstalling apps that were supposed to be the troublemakers (ref my discussion on Maverick problems) but I now need to get onto data specific to some of these apps as well as other data I may have missed. Long story? Yes and sorry.

Gui_download issue - trailing spaces getting truncated for fixed length fil

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to download an internal table as a fixed length file.
The code is as follows:
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
BIN_FILESIZE =
FILENAME = L_FILE
FILETYPE = 'ASC'
APPEND = 'X'
WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = ' '
HEADER = '00'
TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS = ' '
WRITE_LF = ' '
COL_SELECT = ' '
COL_SELECT_MASK = ' '
DAT_MODE = ' '
IMPORTING
FILELENGTH =
TABLES
DATA_TAB = IT_TEXT
EXCEPTIONS
FILE_WRITE_ERROR = 1
NO_BATCH = 2
GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 3
INVALID_TYPE = 4
NO_AUTHORITY = 5
UNKNOWN_ERROR = 6
HEADER_NOT_ALLOWED = 7
Each row in the internal table IT_TEXT is 242 chars long.
The FM is truncatinf the trailing blanks on the file. How do I get the FM to not truncate the trailing blanks in each row?
My internal table has multiple rows and the number of rows on the table should be same as the number of rows on the downloaded file.
I tried setting the WRITE_LF parameter to space.
In this case, the trailing spaces are not truncated(which is as per my requirement), BUT all the rows in the internal table appear in a single line on the downloaded file instead of multiple rows.
I also tried setting the TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS field to space but that does not work either. Spaces at the end of the row are still truncated.
so the requirement is: the spaces at the end of each row should not be truncated and
each row on the internal table should have a corresponding row on the downloaded file.
(it is a fixed length file)
I also tried using the following code
class cl_abap_char_utilities definition load.
DATA: BEGIN OF IT_TEXT OCCURS 0,
       TEXT(242) TYPE C,
       cr_lf TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf,
      END OF IT_TEXT.
when i compile, i get the following error
The type "CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES" is unknown.
Im using R/3 4.6C. Could this be a problem?
Please suggest a solution for this problem.
Thanks!

Upload a Fixed Length file in terms of Bytes..

Hi,
Here is my query.
I have a fixed length file that I need to upload into my program from my presentation server.
The file is in a Shift-JIS Format.
The file is a fixed length format. But it is fixed interms of the number of bytes that each column occupies.
Eg. The 1st column takes 8 bytes, the second 15 bytes, so on and so forth. We do not know the no. of characters each column takes... just the numbe of bytes.
This is how I had approached the upload.
I created an internal table with just one field of type XSTRING.
I used GUI_UPLOAD FM with CODEPAGE = `8000`.
But i noticed during debugging that in each record, the moment a SPACE occured in the input file, it would stop reading and go to the next record in the file. Meaning, I loose all the data after the first occurance of SPACE.
Am I missing something here?? Why does the FM truncate after the first SPACE. ??
Do I need to declare the internal table in any other format..??
