How to automate file updates

On our intranet site, we have various PDFs and reports that print out. I'm kind of new to DW8, and wanted to know if there was a way to have the files automatically update when they are transferred to a folder.
Ex: We have a report that files daily. What I have to do now is go into our server where we keep the files, save over the current report with the new report(keep same name), open dreamweaver, check in the file, take it off read only, then use the put command to update it in the website.
Is there a way to automate this so the file automatically updates when its been saved over?

Which server-side programming languages can you use?

RH 8 - How to retain File Update Settings

Using RH8, integrated with FM9, when I open and close a project, the File Update Settings change for the linked FM chapters.
Any ideas how I can prevent them from changing?
Thanks,
Stacy

Sure!
Open the File Update Settings tab on the FrameMaker Document Settings window. (Right-click on the linked Frame chapter in RoboHelp and select Properties.)
The settings on this window are the ones that change with each opening and closing of the project.
When I re-open a project, RH is defaulting to "preserve" many of the topics (but not all), so I have to go through and uncheck all of the topics that I want RH to update. The Help system probably has 250 topics, and with no "Select All" button, it's a lot of unchecking. Would love to preserve these settings.
Thank you for your help!

How to automate download update for Apps ?

HI,
Is there a way to automate downloads updates for iPhone or iPad (Apps) from itunes?
I did not find a way to do it with AppleScript?
There is a post said "No solution" for that option (from 2010). I wanted to know if the situation as changed since ?
Many Tahnks

Go into the App Store, go to the "Featured" link on the bottom left, and scroll all the way down. At the bottom, you'll see your account information. Click on that, enter your password if needed, and click "View Apple ID".
Near the bottom of that display, you'll see "Turn off Genius for Apps".
These instructions work for iOS 6. Your post says you have an earlier iOS. They may not work there.
Suggest you get iOS 6.0.1 if you don't already have it.

How to automate the updating of a dimension - both members and properties

I need to automate the updqating of one of my dimensions in BPC 5.1 using SSIS. I've tried the "Admin_Makedim.dtsx" that comes with the system. It completes succesfully, but nothing is actually changed or updated in the dimension.
Has anyone sucessfully used this package? If so, does it recognize (and handle) changes to properties of existing dimension members?

I created an SSIS package that performs most of what you're looking for, including updating the XLS file. Please note, that the entire table must be updated. There is no way that I know of yet on how to update incrementally.
Below is the documentation I created for the package (pictures are omitted by the blog).
I will email you a copy of the package and the full documentation as well.
*APPENDIX 10 REQUIRED EXCEL INPUT FILE*
Contents
Meta data (or master data) can be updated automatically thru a daily batch job. A sample of the Excel file is below. It contains all the properties defined for that dimension. In addition, four additional system processed columns needs to be populated if this file is updated from the back-end. They are:
Calc (Y/N) Is the member a calculated field? This includes all parent members which are calculated by aggregating their children.
DimCalc (Y/N) Is the member a dimension calculation field? These are members that are represented by formulas, rather than entered, fed or aggregated.
IsBaseMem (Y/N) Is the member a Base Member, a field that is entered in manually or fed in at the lowest level of the hierarchy?
Hir Which hierarchies does the member belong to? If the member belongs to multiple hierarchies, then they are listed with semicolons. For example, a member belonging to both Parent H1 and Parent H2, would have this field filled in as: H1;H2
Location
The Excel file is located at:
C:\BPC\Data\Webfolders\[Application Name]\AdminApp\[Dimension Name].xls
When the Excel file is to be replaced, the new one should be placed and named at:
C:\BPC\Data\Webfolders\[Application Name]\AdminApp\[Dimension Name]_Update.xls
SSIS PACKAGE
Each dimension that is to be updated from the back end will have its own SSIS package for executing a back end update.
Variables
The package, one for each Dimension, has just four variables to configure
AppSet the name of the Application Set, such as Finance
DimensionName the name of the Dimension, such as IntCo
InstallDirectory the directory in which BPC was installed up to the Webfolders directory, such as C:\BPC\Data\Webfolders\
User_Server the fully qualified user that will be executing the package, such as DCC\osoftadmin
These four variables can be set rather simply within the corresponding configuration file (*.dtsConfig), or hard coded within the SSIS file itself.
Column Mappings
The package manually requires the columns between the Excel table and the internal BPC mbr table be mapped to each other. This is a rather simple click-and-drag, because the column names between the two should match. Modifications to these mapping are only necessary when the properties are modified.
SSIS TASK FLOW
The SSIS package performs the following steps when executed:
     Backs up the original Excel file with a date stamped copy
     Replaces the original Excel file with the updated version
     Clears the corresponding internal BPC mbr table
     Populates the mbr table with the values within the updated Excel file
     Clears the corresponding internal BPC dim table
     Performs a BPC full process, which populates the dim table
Logs
Transaction logs, which specify the success (or failure) of each of the above steps, are recorded and stored at:
C:\BPC\Data\Webfolders\[Application Name]\AdminApp\Logfile\

Automatic file updates across network

I have an iMac and an iBook that are networked wirelessly through an airport base station. When I change a document on one computer is there a way for it to automatically update on the other when I'm connected on my personal network? It's a lot of extra work right now to copy everything twice. There must be an easier solution

Sounds like you need some kind of document management system that requires users to check documents in and out, and won't let multiple users work on a particular file at a time. Most of the ones I'm familiar with (and I'm only remotely familiar with them) are version control programs designed for controlling access to programming code. I'm not sure what kind of options there are for less technical users.
Another option would be to use [Google Docs|http://docs.google.com> for your documents. Google Docs is a web-based replacement for your normal word processor and spreadsheet apps, and is designed with sharing in mind.

How to automate files upload?

I have a folder on a shared drive that contains 10 .csv files. The files get updated everyday automatically. I need to upload this 10 files to my SP website everyday at 8AM. Is there any way I could create a workflow to do this ?
(PS I am not allowed to install SP server, so i cannot use Microsoft Visual Studio)

Tapan, unfortunately that script won't work in a scenario where the SharePoint OM isn't available, such as what I took away from Borat's scenario.

Procedure on how to Automate Flash Updates

I realized that because Flash is used so universally, it can be a target for hackers. I appreciate it that Adobe provides regular updates to safeguard my computer from attacks. Yet the frequency of update messages makes it pretty annoying to got through the same procedure and how it steals focus to do it! When the last update installed it was right in the middle of a presentation!!! I prefer Firefox Portable and yes, I know some browsers download to a separate update window and Firefox, both Desktop and Portable/Key versions are not an exception.
However until I have completed the Flash update installation, because I can't find a way to automate it, given I answer the same questions in the same "Yes" manner, every time, I find myself wishing for and always on the lookout for a Flash substitute that I can automate!
Unless i've missed a setting, I see no way to stop this nagging, so can anyone help with this?
Geez, can't turn off italics in this posting area... seperate issue, but, like focus-stealing update nagging, I can't seem to turn it off!

can we assume you are on a mac? this may be fact of life.
one alternative that i can think of is to disable auto update. this essentially disables any notification. you would need to keep track of updates manually if you choose this option.
the procedure is outlined in the Admin Guide here: http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/flashplayer/pdfs/flas h_player_11_4_admin_guide.pdf

How to automate this update statement

Hello:
I need to convert this update statement to a pl/sql procedure so that I can update this for each mk_product_id at a time because the primary update table has 80 million lines, If I do this for one mk_product_id is very fast, I need to update closely 2 million lines for month_id =55
update processor a set a.mkrptqty =
(select b.mkqty*p.rpt_conv_factor
from
processor b,
product p
where a.mk_record_id = b.mk_record_id
and a.mk_line_nbr = b.mk_line_nbr
and b.mk_product_id = p.part_code
and a.mk_product_id = '480'
and b.month_id = 55)
where
a.month_id = 55
and a.mk_product_id = '480'
Thanks,
Mohan

PL/SQL is slower than SQL.
Keep your update as a single large update statement, but better correlate your inner select with your outer table:
UPDATE processor a
SET a.mkrptqty =
(SELECT b.mkqty*p.rpt_conv_factor
     FROM processor b,
    product p
    WHERE a.mk_record_id = b.mk_record_id
AND a.mk_line_nbr      = b.mk_line_nbr
AND b.mk_product_id    = p.part_code
AND a.month_id         = b.month_id
WHERE a.month_id = 55
AND a.mk_product_id = '480';As you can see in the above code I correleated processor b completely with processor a from the outer update statement. But in the process noticed that you could probably completely dispose of processor b as noted below:
UPDATE processor a
SET a.mkrptqty =
(SELECT a.mkqty*p.rpt_conv_factor
     FROM product p
    WHERE a.mk_product_id    = p.part_code
WHERE a.month_id = 55
AND a.mk_product_id = '480';Please note that neither of these pieces of code have been tested as I don't have relevant tables at hand to test on.
To update many mk_product_id's at a time just use the IN operator providing it with either a select list, or list of values:
UPDATE processor a
SET a.mkrptqty =
(SELECT a.mkqty*p.rpt_conv_factor
     FROM product p
    WHERE a.mk_product_id    = p.part_code
WHERE a.month_id = 55
AND a.mk_product_id in ('480','481');or
WHERE (a.month_id, a.mk_product_id)
     in ((55,'480'), (65,'481'));or
WHERE (a.month_id, a.mk_product_id)
     in (select month_id, mk_product_id from some_table where some_conditions = 'are met');Edited by: Sentinel on Sep 17, 2008 2:25 PM

Automatic time update is 2 minutes out?

Does anyone know how the automatic time update function works on the Nokia 701 and the like? Mine is enabled and seems to update when my phone connects to a data source (e.g. when retrieving email or when browsing websites) but the time retrieved seems to be about two minutes slow. Where does the phone get it's time signal from? Is this a network thing (i.e. it is Orange that is running slow) or does it obtain the time from a Nokia server?
Finally can I change the server it obtains the time from?

Firstly, it is not possible to change servers. As this feature does not require positioning info on the phone and does not require a data connection, I would suggest that it is a network thing. As you travel around the globe, your phone retrieves local time infor from the network you are roaming on. I've been leaving my phones on auto time for as long as I can remember and it used to work as well on my 8310, 6230 etc. with no data connection. I would contact Orange and ask they check their clock.

How to automate the data load process using data load file & task Scheduler

Hi,
I am doing Automated Process to load the data in Hyperion Planning application with the help of data_Load.bat file & Task Scheduler.
I have created Data_Load.bat file but rest of the process i am unable complete.
So could you help me , how to automate the data load process using Data_load.bat file & task Scheduler or what are the rest of the file is require to achieve this.
Thanks

To follow up on your question are you using the maxl scripts for the dataload?
If so I have seen and issue within the batch (ex: load_data.bat) that if you do not have the full maxl script path with a batch when running it through event task scheduler the task will work but the log and/ or error file will not be created. Meaning the batch claims it ran from the task scheduler although it didn't do what you needed it to.
If you are using maxl use this as the batch
"essmsh C:\data\DataLoad.mxl" Or you can also use the full path for the maxl either way works. The only reason I would think that the maxl may then not work is if you do not have the batch updated to call on all the maxl PATH changes or if you need to update your environment variables to correct the essmsh command to work in a command prompt.

How to Automatically generate .XSL file of XML file ???

Hello Everyone,
I have UI which provide the facility to create own format by using drag and drop utility. I have also xml file which contains the data. Now task is how to automatically generate the .xsl file of the dynamically designed format for the data stored in xml form.
If you have any idea about the solution of the above problem.
I will thankful for any help regarding this
Thanks
B. Kumar

XSL stands for EXtensible Stylesheet Language, and is a style sheet language for XML documents. .xsl is the extension of the XSL file.Thank you, I am aware of all that.
When we design any format by using drag & drop utility, System has to generate the .xsl file (extensible stylesheet for the xml document).Why? To accomplish what?
And then .xsl file is used to display the data which is stored in xml document on the webpage with designed format.So you need to define the mapping between XML and HTML? and you're hoping to do that automatically?
That's a job for a user interface designer. Not a tool.
In brief we need to write a parson
Parser
which will take any designed format and generate the .xsl file for that design, to display the data which is stored in XML document.Doesn't make sense. It would make more sense if you started from a schema. Starting from an actual XML document, i.e. an instance of the schema, no, not even slightly.
