i created, but my project manager told me create same remainder notification work flow without create that remainder date i tried to write calculation in work flow

Hi,
For reminder type requirements, I tend to use the ‘Information Management Policy’ SPD method as described in
this blog article by Laura Rogers (it’s for MOSS and WSS but works in SP2010 also).
This method avoids the use of calculated columns; rather the workflow does the calculation and outputs information into a ‘reminder’ field. Also, I don’t like the idea of ‘paused workflows’, so this method works for me.
Cheers

Is it possible to debug step by step for share point designer workflow in share point 2010

Hi all,<o:p></o:p>
I have created a reminder date work flow but it is not working .In this work flow it need to be check first its status if its status is suspend then only workflow can run .I am
attaching below workflow logic check if any modifications needed please suggest me . And I have doubt is it possible to check step by step debugging like in coding we are using break point in this way any break point is available for designer workflows
? If break point is available please guide me how to get and use those<o:p></o:p>
Thanking you,<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>Workflow logic given below</o:p>

You can't step through a SharePoint Designer Workflow. The normal workaround is to Log messages to the History list with the values you want to look at where you would normally put breakpoints. Then run the workflow and examine the history
list to see how the values changed as you went through your workflow.

Share Point 2013 Designer not showing platform as "Share point 2013 Workflow" at the time of workflow creation.

Hi All,
I am trying to create workflow for my Share Point 2013 site. To do this, I installed Share Point 2013 Designer,
then created couple of workflows in that, using "Share point 2013 Workflow" platform.
But when today, I tried to create workflow, I found that "Share point 2013 Workflow" platform option was not there. Because of that I am unable to create and deploy workflow on my SP 2013 site.
I am really not getting the problem. As I created some workflows using "Share point 2013 Workflow" platform on same share point designer and now I dont see that option in dropdown.
Please suggest me something for this. I tried all possible solution which are present on internet.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Since you are posting the thread in SharePoint 2013 server forum, I assume you are using SharePoint server 2013.
I understand the option SharePoint 2013 platform disappears when you create a workflow in Designer, the issue might be caused by workflow manager. Please refer to the article below and check workflow configuration per the steps listed:

Iphone4 would not restore Error -50. I have tried to restore and it restored it to the point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out.

Iphone would not restore---- Error -50. I have tried to restore, and it restored it to the new point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out. I can see earlier backups in my C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup folder. There are four subfolders in this address. I need my contacts, photos, and messages back. I know this is a common error but I can not figure it out. I have ran the other troublshoot items in the error steps for 13 and 14 like apple says. Is there a way to call apple and get a step by step of how to restore from another restore point? Does anybody have a solution????

It tells you to go to Error 13 and 14 if you receive error (-50).
Here is what I have tried...
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting. I have moved it around to different ports.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer. Didn't change anything.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts. Removed all virus protection and firewall.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.Used the Microsoft fix it.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online. Doesn't matter.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network. I do not know how to do this or how to find the correct/full/complete restore point. There should be more information for this.

I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo. It now shows in information, that the date is created and modified is different from the original digitized date. How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo. It now shows in information, that the date created and modified is different from the original digitized date. How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

The Finder reports File information. The date and time of the photo are in the Photo's Exif metadata. The Finder has no awareness of this. All photos apps on any system do.

How to populate active directory users in to drop down list items dynamically in Share point 2010 ?

Hi My self Arun in my current project i have a task on that active directory user need to automatically populate in share point list drop down please help me. is that any out of box feature in share point 2010 ?
Thanking You
Arun

Arun,
If you plan to implement the "Querying the Active Directory" based on my code snippet,
and if you do not have permission [your account must be the part of domain admin] to do so,
Then still you can do it in least effort through code,
string usersInXml = SPContext.Current.Web.AllUsers.Xml;your xml string look like this.
<Users><User ID="2" Sid="" Name="Administrator"
LoginName="i:0#.w|murugesan\administrator" Email="" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="True" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /><User ID="1" Sid="" Name="Murugesa Pandian" LoginName="i:0#.w|murugesan\murugesan" Email="" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="True" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /><User ID="1073741823" Sid="S-1-0-0" Name="System Account" LoginName="SHAREPOINT\system" Email="" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /></Users>
You can user Linq to XML to filter the "LoginName,Name and Email and then populate your drop down list.
* User must be logged into the site at least once.

How top Open a Excel Document from share point document library using jquery

How top Open a Excel Document from share point document library using jquery

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to open excel file via JQuery.
To open excel file, we can use the following code.
<script type="text/javascript">
function openExcel(strFilePath) {
var yourSite = "http://www.yoursite.com";
openExcelDocPath(yourSite + strFilePath, false);
function openExcelDocPath(strLocation, boolReadOnly) {
var objExcel;
objExcel = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");
objExcel.Visible = true;
objExcel.Workbooks.Open(strLocation, false, boolReadOnly);
</script>

How to read data from info path in custom web part in share point 2010

We have a document library where the some info paths (code info paths) are uploaded with different views. Is there any way to read the data from info paths forms in custom share point 2010 web parts like using any available web services in share
point 2010 etc,,
Any suggestions are helpful to me.
TARUN

Hello,
Yes, you can use XmlDocument, XmlNodeList, XmlElement, XmlNode etc to read infopath file via code. Just add "using System.Xml" as reference in your solution.
Refer below link with sample code:

Share Point 2010 opening pdf in adobe reader prompting credentials

Hi,
In our share point 2010 internet site whenever we try to open pdf , its trying to open in adobe reader and prompting user to enter credentials and finally getting " url provided couldnot be reached..." error message. This is happening with only certain versions of adobe like Adobe X, Adobe 11.
Do you have any update on this one. It is possible to open the document in New WIndow or New tab by right clickign the document. ALso we have enabled browser handling for the web application "permissive".
ITs working fine in other versions of adobe reader like 9..
Thanks

How do I change the length of a column in the metadata?

A very simple package, reads data from SQL Server and FTPs it to a destination. I have zero experience with SSIS.
I had to add a new column (HEA_ID) to the input and output. The output record has a filler at the end (I hope you know what a filler is) and the new column has to go before the filler and the filler length reduced accordingly.
Problem: there is no apparent way to place the new column anywhere but after the Filler. The filler in the metadata is the wrong length and there is no way that I can see to change the length.
There is a yellow exclamation mark on the Flat File destination (where the filler is wrong length)
I get these erros when I run the updated package.
"The external metadata column is out of sync with the data source column. The column 'HEA_ID' needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection".
"The column filler needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection"
I have no idea how to fix these errors. Help needed.

Hi AllTheGoodNamesWereTaken,
According to your description, you add a new column HEA_ID and make some changes in filler column in the External Columns, so those two columns are out of sync with the data source column.
Please note that columns are created based on the data source columns. So we couldn’t directly change them in the Flat File Destination Advanced Editor.
To avoid this error message, just as Visakh said, just review mappings once again in the Flat File Destination. If we want to change the columns in the Flat File Destination, we need change the source columns.
Thanks,

How do I write a vi that will save graph data and text data (related to the graph) so the next time I want to view the graph data the text data is included in the read vi?

I am new at writing vi's and hope you may be able to help. I would like to create a vi that will graph measurements taken from a daq device. I would like to include text data that a user can choose from (example: machine number, test circuit, load cell type) that will stay with the graph so when the graph is viewed at a later time the text data (explaining parts of the graph) will display with the graph data. I have included a vi I am using to capture and display a force value. Any help would be greatly appreicated.
Attachments:
force.vi ‏500 KB

What you want is a DATALOG file:
When you save a file, use the BUNDLE function to bundle your machine number, test circuit, whatever (include a few spare fields), plus your graph data. Get the graph data from the source, or use a local variable of the graph itself.
Wire the bundle output to the DATALOG TYPE of a NEW FILE function. (I presume you'll use a FILE DIALOG set to SAVE FILE to choose a file path).
Write the same bundle output to the DATA input of a WRITE FILE function.
Use a CLOSE FILE function to (ahem) close the file.
When you want to read a file, use a FILE DIALOG set to EXISTING FILE (or some other means) to specify what file to read. Wire the same cluster type to the DATALOG TYPE of the FILE DIALOG, so that it will only
offer files of the correct type.
When you have a file path chosen, wire the bundle to the DATALOG TYPE input of a FILE OPEN operation.
Use a FILE READ to read a single cluster - the output of FILE READ will be a cluster of the right type.
Use a CLOSE FILE function to....
Out of the FILE READ function, you can UNBUNDLE BY NAME the data and send to the graph and the other fields, or, if you're clever, you can use a cluster on the screen, and not unbundle it. That's harder though, since you probably want the text fields to be controls (inputs) and the graph to be an indicator (output).
Hope that helps.
