How to create a variance on data that exists iIn only one database column

How to create a variance on data that exists iIn only one database column?
I'm trying to create a calculation to show the difference between the budgets for two different years in a Discoverer crosstab query.
I'm using the lag function to repeat the value of a column for the current year and the year before.

Lag and lead seems to be the only choice and they work excellent. Checkout the new 10g Database features. There is new SQL modal clause which might give additional and powerful analytics but in this case lag and lead should be sufficient.

How to create a report with data using the Crystal Reports for Java SDK

Hi,
How do I create a report with data that can be displayed via the Crystal Report for Java SDK and the Viewers API?
I am writing my own report designer, and would like to use the Crystal Runtime Engine to display my report in DHTML, PDF, and Excel formats. I can create my own report through the following code snippet:
ReportClientDocument boReportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();
boReportClientDocument.newDocument();
However, I cannot find a way to add data elements to the report without specifying an RPT file. Is this possible? I seems like it is since the Eclipse Plug In allows you to specify your database parameters when creating an RPT file.
is there a way to do this through these packages?
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.definition
Am I forced to create a RPT file for the different table and column structures I have?
Thank you in advance for any insights.

Hi Rameez,
After working through the example code some more, and doing some more research, I remain unable to populate a report with my own data and view the report in a browser. I realize this is a long post, but there are multiple errors I am receiving, and these are the seemingly essential ones that I am hitting.
Modeling the Sample code from Create_Report_From_Scratch.zip to add a database table, using the following code:

%>
Throws the exception
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: java.lang.NullPointerException---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
There was other sample code on SDN which suggested the following - adding the table after calling table.setDataFields() as in:
          String tableName = "Building";
            String fieldname = "Building_Name";
            Table oTable = new Table();
            oTable.setName(tableName);
            oTable.setAlias(tableName);
            oTable.setQualifiedName(tableName);
            oTable.setDescription(tableName) ;
            Fields fields = new Fields();
            DBField field = new DBField();
            field.setDescription(fieldname);
            field.setHeadingText(fieldname);
            field.setName(fieldname);
            field.setType(FieldValueType.stringField);
            field.setLength(40);
            fields.add(field);
            oTable.setDataFields(fields);
            oTable.setConnectionInfo(oConnectionInfo);
            rcd.getDatabaseController().addTable(oTable, null);
This code succeeds, but it is not clear how to add that database field to a section. If I attempt to call the following:
FieldObject oFieldObject = new FieldObject();
            oFieldObject.setDataSourceName(field.getFormulaForm());
            oFieldObject.setFieldValueType(field.getType());
            // Now add it to the section
            oFieldObject.setLeft(3120);
            oFieldObject.setTop(120);
            oFieldObject.setWidth(1911);
            oFieldObject.setHeight(226);
            rcd.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(oFieldObject, rcd.getReportDefController().getReportDefinition().getDetailArea().getSections().getSection(0), -1);
Then I get an error (which is not unexpected)
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportDefControllerException: The field was not found.---- Error code:-2147213283 Error code name:invalidFieldObject
How do I add one of the table.SetDataFields() to my report to be displayed?
Are there any other pointers or suggestions you may have?
Thank you

How to create a credit memo for an existing sales order !

Can any body help for how to create a credit memo for an existing sales order !

Hi,
It is actually possible to create credit memos from sales orders though it is not followed in most of the scenarios.
We have got a scenario in commodity trading that a sales order will be created with positive value. Once the swaps are settled by the portfolio mngt team, if we have to give some money to the payer, then a credit memo will be greated (as in their case all invoices will have only +ve value as net value) with reference to the sales order. In the copy control, the main field to be taken care of at itme level is the PRICING TYPE for which a value of F has to be maintained. This will convert the sign of the values and fix them. Now a credit memo will be created for teh saels order.
In this case, the document cateogyr of sales order will be C in VBAK, but it will be K in VBFA table which is the table for document flow.
Hope this answers your question. You can reward if it helps you.
Otherwise the normal process is
SALES ORDER---INVOICECREDIT MEMO REQUEST----CREDIT MEMO

Could somebody teach me how to set the lastest iTunes so that it repeats just one of the numbers installed from the CD? I've alreadly tried it by clicking "control" and the bottom, but it doesn't work. Thank you.

Could somebody teach me how to set the latest iTunes so that it repeats just one of the numbers installed from the CD?
I've already given it a try by clicking "control" and the bottom item which means one item in Japanese, but it doesn't work.
Thank you.

You can access the repeat options if you right-click on the shuffle icon or if menus are enabled you can use
Controls > Repeat > Off | All | One.
Once the control is visible you can click it to switch between states as before. If the control is turned to off it disappears on the next track change. In contrast the shuffle control remains visible whenever it is appropriate. Hopefully the next release will fix this.
The bottom one should do it.

I need to copy data from a table in one database (db1) to another table in

Hi
I need to copy data from a table in one database (db1) to another table in another database (db2).
I am not sure if the table exists in db2,,,if it doesnot it needs to be created as well data also needs to be inserted...
How am I supposed to this using sql statements..?
I shall be happy if it is explained SQL also...
Thanking in advance

How many rows does the table contains? There are manyway you can achieve this.
1. export and import.
2. create a dblink between two databases and use create table as select, if structure doesnot exists in other database, if structure exists, use, insert into table select command.
example:
create a dblink in db2 database for db1 database.
create table table1 as select * from table1@db1 -- when there is no structure present
-- you need to add constraints manually, if any exists.
insert into table1 select * from table1@db1 -- when there is structure present.
If the table contains large volume of data, I would suggest you to use export and import.

Thanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.

Fault 6
How should I proceed?
Have the program installed on only one computer.

Download the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool.
Run the License Service Update.
Mac OS X 10.7 and above:
a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg It will extract the folder. Open the folder.
b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
c. Double-click Applications.
d. Double-click Utilities.
e. Double-click Terminal.
f. Type sudo python
Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery111 folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return.
It should look like this:
h. Enter your administrator user name and password when prompted and click OK.
(Note: the cursor will not move and you will not see stars or dots, just enter your password anyway.
i. Let the script run, it will tell you when it is finished. Quit terminal and restart Photoshop

How to create a chart with dates?

I've created a table with projects I have to deliver and the date they were delivered. I would like to create a chart from this data - however I can't figure out how to use date in the chart.
Ideally the chart would work with the date (lets say from jan 01 to april 5) on the x-axis and the project on the y-axis. And a line that goes from time A (which marks the initial part of the project) to the time B (which marks the delivery date) defined on the table.
Is it possible?
heres a pic of what i mean:

Hi Jerry,
I'm ALMOST there! If you could help me with one last thing it would be amazing. I've uploaded my number project and you can downloaded it on the link bellow, if you prefer.
I managed to do the same idea chart as you have. However I would like to have two bars for every JOB (y-axis). On my table i've inputed for every job 4 values = START DATE that was scheduled / Duration period scheduled (this happens prior to the job itself // START DATE Delivered / Duration Period Delivered (this is the actual time the JOB took place). This way I can see at the end of a JOB if I worked during the period I planned.
using your example on the chart above (your reply) Could Proposal have a bar 1.0 / 4.0 - and bellow this bar have another one (with different colours) that went from 2.0 / 5.0 - for example? - the first one representing the "scheduled dates"and the second one representing what actually happened.
I managed to do the four bars but couldnt manage to have them bellow each other.
Tks again for your help

How to create a folder with date each day?

I've not used Automator, just once to "create" a workflow to create a new folder with a name; but what I want is this:
Each morning at 12:01 am, a new folder to be created with the correct date as the name of the folder.
So for tomorrow, Sunday 23 Nov 2008 at 12:01, I'd suddenly have a folder on my Hard Drive that would have the date like 23 Nov 2008 or 11/23/2008 or 23-11-2008 or similar.
Then at the end of a week I'd have 7 of these; - but I can manually trash them-- I want to create these on my HD since I backup via SuperDuper! each morning (automatically) at 3:35 am (incremental backup to an external La Cie HD) and I want to know if was done, so by having a folder with the date on it I can open the external HD and if I see that that folder with the recent date is there, then I'm confident the BackUp was run.
I have been able to create a workflow to create a folder in Automator, but not sure how to:
1. Have the folder created automatically each day at 12:01
2. How to have the folder label be the date
Thanks for any comments or certainly any other work-around or other way to do this or similar.
Regards, Steve

Open the AppleScript Editor. Copy the following into it:
set dt to date string of (current date)
set mth to word 2 of dt
set dy to word 3 of dt
set yr to word 4 of dt
set dtt to mth & " " & dy & " " & yr
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at alias "Macintosh HD:Users:username:Desktop:" with properties {name:dtt}
end tell
Amend the path with your Hard Disk name and username. Save as an application to anywhere suitable.
In iCal, set up an event with a daily repeat and an alarm at the time you want it: under 'Alarm' choose 'Open file': then in the next menu which will appear change from 'iCal' to 'Other' and navigate to your script. Enter the date and time.
Your folder will be created as required: iCal does not need to be running. This script gives the folder name as, for example, 'November 22 2008', but it's easy to amend the script if you want something a bit different - for example:
property zro : ""
set yr to year of (current date) as string
set dy to day of (current date)
set mt to month of (current date)
set dyy to dy as string
set nmm to the number of items in dyy
if nmm is 1 then
set zro to 0
end if
if mt is January then
set mth to "01"
else if mt is February then
set mth to "02"
else if mt is March then
set mth to "03"
else if mt is April then
set mth to "04"
else if mt is May then
set mth to "05"
else if mt is June then
set mth to "06"
else if mt is July then
set mth to "07"
else if mt is August then
set mth to "08"
else if mt is September then
set mth to "09"
else if mt is October then
set mth to "10"
else if mt is November then
set mth to "11"
else if mt is December then
set mth to "12"
end if
set dtt to mth & "-" & zro & dy & "-" & yr as string
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at alias "iBook HD:Users:roger:Desktop:" with properties {name:dtt}
end tell
This gives the folder name as, for example, 11-22-2008. (The days will have leading zeros, if you don't want these just remove the references to 'zro'.)
