How to connect start date of shape to start date from Excel column?

I tried to create Visio report with timeline
Created connections and add external data.
Dragged projects to the main screen
But, start/finish date do not connect to the project data.
What should I check or correct?

The shape uses a custom property for the start and end date/time (controlled by the add-in).
Since you cannot have duplicate names for fields within the shape your spreadsheet's column name will have to be different than the solution name when it is read and linked. You might check David Parker's site for a possible solution.
http://blog.bvisual.net/
I remember him illustrating how to link a SharePoint list to a timeline for dynamic changes (roughly the same operation).

How to connect to External Database, if say SQL server, from Adobe LC

Hi everyone,
I have one application, which needs to save and load data from/to an external database,SQL server.I have no idea on how to implement this.But with my knowledge I managed to create DSs and using new data connection wizard, some how I managed to list the fields in the Data View.BUT i still worrying about the way i did is rigt or wrong?.. how can i save and load data to sql server from Adobe LC..Please help me
Thanks,

You created the data source on the app server which is the first step. Now you can use the JDBC service to query the database:

How to connect weblogic 8.1 to IBM MQ Series from remote machines?

Hi,
          I am trying to connect WebLogic 8.1 to IBM MQ Series 6.0 both are running in a seperate machines.Can we do using JNDI services? Can anyone help me to fix this issue?

I'm cutting/pasting my notes on the topic, including MQ specific notes. Start with the Integrating Remote JMS Providers FAQ (link below). You can also search this newsgroup for answers.

          JMS Integration of Foreign Vendors with BEA WebLogic Server
          The following notes are derived mostly from "http://dev2dev.bea.com/technologies/jms/index.jsp".
          For additional questions, a good forum for WebLogic questions in general is "newsgroups.bea.com". These can be mined for information by using Google's newsgroup search function.
          JMS Integration Overview
          - For integration with "non-Java" and/or "non-JMS" platforms, see "Non-Java Integration Options" below.
          - For a foreign JMS vendor to participate in a WL transaction it must support XA. Specifically, it must support the javax.jms.XA* interfaces.
          - In WL versions 6.0 and up it is possible to make synchronous calls to foreign JMS vendors participate in a WL transaction as long as the foreign vendor supports XA.
          - WL 6.0 and 6.1 MDBs can be driven by foreign vendors non-transactionally. They can be driven transactionally by a select few foreign vendors (MQ is not part of the select few)
          - WL 7.0 and later, MDBs can be driven by foreign vendors transactionally and non-transationally.
          - WL 6.1 and later WL provides a messaging bridge feature. Messaging bridges forward messages between any two JMS destinations, including foreign destinations, and can transfer messages transactionally or non-transactionally.
          - WL 8.1 JMS provides additional features that simplify transactional and JNDI integration of foreign vendors. See http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jms/intro.html#jms_features and http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/faq/interop.html
          Integration with 8.1 Details
          To start, first read the "Integrating Remote JMS Providers FAQ" (released in Dec 2004) at:
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/faq/interop.html
          A good overview of 8.1 JMS interop capability is the presentation "Integrating Foreign JMS Providers with BEA WebLogic Server" here:
          http://www.bea.com/content/files/eworld/presentations/Wed_03_05_03/Application_Servers/1097-Foreign_JMS_Providers_WLS.pdf
          This document refers to helpful new 8.1 features, which simplify integration. These include:
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/ConsoleHelp/jms_config.html#accessing_foreign_providers
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jms/j2ee_components.html#1033768
          And are also summarized here (under interoperability):
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jms/intro.html#jms_features
          Also read the MDB documentation, which extensively covers integrating foreign vendors:
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/ejb/message_beans.html
          The 8.1 features are likely sufficient for most 8.1 integration needs, but you may want to refer to the "Using Foreign JMS Providers With WLS" white-paper mentioned below, which is 7.0 specific but contains specific examples of configuring non-WebLogic JMS vendors. See also notes on "MQ" below.
          Integration with 6.1 and 7.0 Details
          Read the "Using Foreign JMS Providers With WLS" white-paper:
          http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlserver/whitepapers/jmsproviders.jsp
          Note that this white-paper does not take into account 8.1 features.
          For 7.0 read the extensive 8.1 MDB documentation, which largely also applies to 7.0:
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/ejb/message_beans.html
          Non-Java Integration Options
          - WL JMS has a JNI based C client which is available for Windows and some UNIX platforms. This C client supports 7.0 and up, and will be officially packaged with WLS in 9.0 (virtually unchanged). The C API is currently only supported through the jms newsgroup. See "JMS C API", here:
          http://dev2dev.bea.com/technologies/jms/index.jsp
          - WL supports direct Windows COM access through its "JCOM" feature. This doesn't include the JMS API, but one can invoke EJBs which in turn invoke JMS. See
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/jcom.html
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/jcom/
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jcom/
          - Similar to JCOM, but more advanced and supported on more platforms, WL supports access via the standard IIOP protocol. You can use the BEA Tuxedo C client for this purpose (no license fee). This doesn't include the JMS API, but one can invoke EJBs which in turn invoke JMS. See
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/rmi_iiop/
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/rmi_iiop/
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/rmi_iiop/
          Unlike most other approaches, the IIOP client approach also allows the client to begin and commit user (JTA) transactions (not configured).
          - If you already have a BEA Tuxedo license, one option is communicate through BEA Tuxedo (which has various APIs on Windows) and configure a WebLogic Server to respond to these requests via the WTC bridge. Search for "WTC" in the BEA docs. Unlike most other approaches, the Tuxedo API approach also allows the client to begin and commit user (JTA) transactions.
          - Another approach is to interop via web-service standards. Or even to simply to invoke a servlet on the WL server using a basic HTTP call from the client. These operation in turn can invoke the JMS API. There is a white-paper on "Interoperability Study of BEA WebLogic Workshop 8.1 and Microsoft .NET 1.1 Web Services", that demonstrates web-services here:
          http://ftpna2.bea.com/pub/downloads/WebLogic-DotNet-Interop.pdf
          - Yet another approach is to use a third party product that is designed to wrap any JMS vendor. There are even open source versions. In no particular order, here are some examples: Open3 WinJMS, CodeMesh, Active JMS, SpiritSoft
          - Finally, there are .NET/C/C++ integration libraries that are not specific to JMS, some examples are JNBridge, Jace, and CodeMesh.
          Notes on MQ Remote Capable XA Clients
          Until recently, IBM MQ JMS clients could not work transactionally unless they were running on the same host as their MQ server. This is a limitation unique to MQ that was relaxed with the introduction of IBM's new "WebSphere MQ Extended Transactional Client". See:
          http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/csqzar00.pdf
          The product is new, and for some reason, configuration of this client seems to be tricky, even when WebLogic is not involved at all. Oddly, the main sticking point seems to be simply making sure that class paths refer to the required IBM jars:
          - Required on WLS where MQ objects are bound into JNDI:
          com.ibm.mq.jar, com.ibm.mqjms.jar
          - Required only if MQ objects are bound into JNDI on a different server:
          com.ibm.mq.jar
          If there are problems when using this client, first get it to work using a pure IBM client without any BEA classes involved. Once that is working, search the WL JMS newsgroup for answers and/or contact BEA customer support.
          Notes on Oracle AQ Integration
          If problems are encountered integrating Oracle's built-in queuing (Oracle AQ) JMS client, there is publicly available wrapper code that can aid integrating AQ directly into MDBs, JMS, or the messaging bridge. The solution is titled "Startup class to bind AQ/Referenceable objects to WLS JNDI", is not supported by BEA, and is posted to:
          http://dev2dev.bea.com/codelibrary/code/startupclass.jsp (older version)
          http://xa-compliant-oracleaq.projects.dev2dev.bea.com (newer version)
          Caveats:
          It may be that the solution doesn't directly support concurrent consumers. Perhaps Oracle requires that concurrent consumers each have a unique JMS connection? As a work-around, parallel message processing can be achieved indirectly by forwarding AQ messages into a WL JMS destination - which do support concurrent processing.
          Up-to-date versions of Oracle may be required. For more information, google search the weblogic.developer.interest.jms newsgroup for "Oracle" and "AQ".
          MDB Thread Pool Notes
          WL7.0SP? and WL8.1 and later support the "dispatch-policy" field to specify which thread pool an MDB uses to run its instances. In most cases this field should be configured to help address potential performance issues and/or dead-locks:
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/ejb/DDreference-ejb-jar.html#dispatch-policy
          (Note that "dispatch-policy" is ignored for non-transactional foreign vendors; in this case, the MDB "onMessage" callback runs in the foreign vendor's thread.)
          MDB Concurrency Notes
          Queue MDBs driven by foreign providers can run multiple instances concurrently. Topic MDBs driven by foreign providers are limited to one instance (not sure, but transactional foreign driven topic MDBs may not have this limitation). The size of the thread pool that the MDB runs in and the "max-beans-in-free-pool" descriptor limit how many instances run concurrently.
          Design Guide-Lines and Performance Tuning Notes
          The "WebLogic JMS Performance Guide" white-paper contains detailed design, performance, and tuning information for Clustering, Messaging Bridge, JMS, and MDBs.

How can I generate a data merge that includes a barcode from excel spreadsheet to InDesign?

Can you please advise if the following process is possible within InDesign CS 5.5? (Mac OS 10.8.2).
We need to create a data merge that includes a barcode. The data merge is for several thousand records.
We have a customer-supplied Excel spreadsheet that contains seven fields, one of which is a number that ultimately needs to print as a barcode when we make the data merge in InDesign.
As you would expect, the conventional six fields data merge perfectly - but we can't find a way to make the barcode print correctly within the data merge.
We have investigated several possible solutions without success.
Some solutions suggest a plug-in for Excel to convert the number into a barcode whilst still in the spreadsheet - but this doesn't come across correctly when we import the CSV file into the InDesign data merge.
We have investigated certain third party software applications but none provide the full solution we require. Some, for example, appear to create the barcode within the Excel spreadsheet but don't produce the barcode correctly when we data merge in InDesign; and some will allow us to create a one-off barcode within InDesign but have no automated way of retrieving the thousands of Excel numbers and turning them into barcodes.
We have also come across possible 'font' solutions but have had no success with these either.
For a previous job we needed to produce we outsourced to a specialist mailing company, who assured us they produced the whole job (very quickly) within InDesign. They, understandably, won't tell us how they did it. But, given the speed with which they produced the job for us, we imagine - with the correct software - the whole process is easy to do.
Can you please advise?

How to connect to four Mirage Servers via Round Robin from external over one Mirage Gateway?

Hello all,
we want use Mirage completely from external over the Mirage Gateway.
We have around 4000 Mirage Clients which will use the Gateway and 4 Mirage Servers.
The Gateway is running in the moment only for our external users and is working well.
The way in the moment (if I understand everything right) is that the Clients are connecting from external to the Mirage Gateway and from there to ONE mirage Server.
If it is like that and we configure all Mirage Clients to go over the GW then 4000 Clients are connected to ONE Server is that right?
If yes how can we configure it that all 4 Mirage Servers will be used?
Are 4000 Clients over one GW maybe too much or should that work out?
Thank you for your answers.
Timo

Hi Timo,
I modified my lab and now Mirage is running with two Gateways, two load balancers, two Servers and two storage systems.
The "MirageNetScaler" is one appliance but with two virtual server.
Your design with only one Gateway should also work.
Sorry for my bad paint skills

How to connect to an Oracle database on one machine from another client machine?

I installed oracle database 11g (server and client) on one machine. It works perfectly. Then I installed oracle client (ODTwithODAC1120320) in another machine. Now I want to connect to the database of the previous machine. I tried to connect but It failed. I think .ORA files should be configured. What should I do to fulfill this.
thanks...

thank you for the quick response..
this link Installing Oracle Database Client for oracle client installation. But the content refers all oracle database installation. could you please get know me that oracle client means only the OdtWithODAC or some thing else? This link Installing Oracle Database Client explain but not the OdtWithODAC. Please let me know clearly.
Please let me know the exact name of the software that I should download from the oracle website that refers the oracle database client.

Dynamically add data points to U.S. Map from excel file?

Hi,
I have an illustrator U.S. map and I have an excel spread sheet with 1,000's of zip codes. I need to add dots on my map for each zip code. How do I do that dynamically? This is going into an annual report so the design needs to be kept in Illustrator and the dot style needs to be adjustable.
Please let me know if there is a solution as opposed to manually looking up the zip codes and copy/pasting 1,000's and 1,000's of dots.
Many thanks in advance,
Stacy

Not sure I follow exactly what you have in mind. You just want to have a dot at the location of each zip code on a map of the US? Are the dots going to be individually labeled? Individually named objects? Isn't there something like 40,000 zip codes in the US?
You don't provide much information about the problem. What kind of map? Does it already have individual objects drawn in the shape of zip codes and you just want a dot in the middle of each? Are you literally just starting with an outline of the whole US?
What kind of columns are in your spreadsheet? For example, do you have latitude/longitude data cells for each zip code? I don't think there is any geographical reference system embedded in a zip code. It's just a number.
Illustrator isn't going to recognize a *shape* as the state of Georgia, for example, unless that object already has some kind of identifier within Illustrator. So obviously, you would need some kind of 2D reference table to tell whatever automation scheme you employ where to place each dot on an XY coordinate grid.
Such things are available, as described here:
http://www.maponics.com/index.html
I suspect you're probably trying to reinvent the wheel here, but it would not be a difficult Javascript problem, once armed with the three-field data. This would be the general scheme:
1. Start with a data table with three columns: Zip Code, Latitude, Longitude.
2. Write an AI Javascript which does these things:
-Contains a function which uses a simple multiplication scheme to effectively scale the Lat/Long values into X and Y divisions of your Artboard area.
-Contains a loop which cycles through the Lat/Long values, calls the function to translate each into X/Y page coordinates, and places a pre-defined Symbol (an AI Symbol, in the sense of the Symbols Palette) at each coordinate pair. Using Symbol Instances would enable you to use the various Symbols-related commands to later globally swap out or edit the symbols.
-The script could optionally name each of the instances by its zip code, if necessary.
3. After running the script, simply scale and position the map (probably on an underlying Layer) proportionally so that two points on it correspond to any two known lat/long coordinates. The rest of the map would then correspond to the dots on the grid.
But again, I strongly suspect this has all been done before. You could probably buy a vector graphic file like what you need from a map clipart source and then just edit it stylistically for your use.

Importing Data into MS Project Professional 2013 from Excel workbook, can it be done?

Hi all, I am trying to get data in from several large work plans done in Excel, into MS Project 2013 Pro. I am familiar with the Import Wizard, but in this case, there is nothing to map from the Excel files it seems. Does that mean that I have to edit the
Excel files and make sure there is a column called Name to key from? Or do I do something else so I don't have to cut and paste or retype all of this? Well, as always, thx (and thank the heavens u are here).
Cheers,
Jigs
Jiggy Gaton, Trainer and Media Consultant for Nepal and S. Asia

Jiggy --
I think it would help you if you exported a Microsoft Project 2013 file to an Excel workbook so that you can see exactly WHAT data your own Excel workbook should contain. Please try this:
Open an existing Microsoft Project 2013 file.
Click File > Export > Save Project as File > Microsoft Excel Workbook and then click the Save As button on the Export page.
In the Save As dialog, navigate to the folder where you want to save the Excel workbook file, and then click the Save button.
In the Export Wizard dialog, click the Next button.
On the Data page of the Export Wizard, select the Project Excel Template option, and then click the Finish button.
If you see a warning message about a missing filter, simply click the OK button, as this is a bug that will not affect the exported data.
Now, open the resulting workbook in Microsoft Excel. Pay special attention to the data shown on the Task_Table worksheet. Notice in row 1 how every column has a heading that describes the data. Notice that the column containing the Task
Name information is not called Task Name; it is simply called Name.
What you will need to do is to configure your own Excel workbook to look like what you see in the Excel workbook that you just exported. Then try importing your Excel workbook data using the Import Wizard, and let us know if you have follow up questions.
Hope this helps.
Dale A. Howard [MVP]
Well, I followed this procedure and the results are problematic. First, there is always errors on import, and no matter what's selected, the import works but with problems...
Multiple import errors of the same type, clicking Yes, No, Cancel produces the same results:
Then, unpredictable results on import, most of the time it looks like this:
The crossed out text is problematic. I have no idea why it does that, or how to fix. Well, thx for your help!

How to create the temp table in Sybase with values from Excel ?

Dear Sir/Madam,
I know this is not related with oracle DB, however i am in the need of help from you people who worked on Sybase. plz help me..
I have the excel sheet which contains EmpId and EmpName values. I just wanted to read these two values one by one from an excel sheet and loaded them into one temp table in Sybase. is it possible thru sqlldr ?
here is the sample code for your reference:
begin tran
create table tempdb..empIdName (emp_id int identity,emp_name varchar(50))
go
Awaiting for your valuable reply
thanks
pannar

there is some hint provided by sybase user
If it's Sybase IQ, you can export the excel file to a CSV file, then use a LOAD TABLE statement to get the data into your temporary table.
For ASE, BCP would provide similar functionality.
I am using ISQLW tool to work with sybase DB. what query to load the excel data to tem table in sybase. anyone who knows this? help me

Data is not reflecting into listbox from excel sheet

Hi,
I have converted one Scorecard from Xcelsius4.5 into Xcelsius2008. Data and format everything is fine, but one list box is not showing data in xcelisu2008. But itu2019s showing fine in xcelsius4.5.
All settings are looks fine. General tab settings are same for X4.5 and X2008.
But Behavior tab has some what different. in X2008, i have seen selected item type is "Dynamic" and item is "Label1". this option is not available in the X4.5.
Please tell me where i am doing wrong.
Let me know if you need any additional information.
Thanks
Srinivas

Are you sure that the labels range in general tab is mapped properly? If that's proper then you should see the labels.
Try with a spreadsheet table and see whether the data is coming to the range during runtime.
Try removing this listbox and add a new one and test. Some times tha also helps.
