How to Create SMB Links?

At work, we have a Windows file share that I can access via my Mac using Connect to Server. However, I want to create SMB links to files stored on the file share and reference these in emails instead of attaching files as attachments. How do I easily create SMB links in OS X?
When I do a Get Info on a file, a SMB link is shown in the Server: field, but I cannot highlight and copy this text. Any ideas how I can either generate a SMB link for a file stored on a Windows file share or "access" the SMB link provided in Get Info?
Thanks!

make sure finder is the app listed on the menu bar... hit Command+K... should bring a connect to server... type it all in then click the '+' button to add to your favorites. you can easily copy from there.
If you're sending links to mac users it should be easy... windows, however, might not be as, i believe, they use the '\\server\share\folder\file' format without the 'smb:' prefix... plus, it's back slash in windows and forward slash in os x.

  • How to Create a Link to a Discoverer Workbook in Apps11i?-[solved]

    I tried to create a link to a disco workbook in apps 11i using metalink document 278095.1. It seems to be working ok for discoverer which is installed on the same machine as the apps11i is on(because when I clicked on the link which I have created in apps11i, I see a default disco4i welcome page which got installed out of the box with apps11i). But we are using discoverer version 10g which is on a different server. Does anyone has ideas on how to create a link for a disco workbook which is on a different server other than apps11i.
    Discoverer version is 10g
    Apps version is 11.5.10.2
    Thanks in advance

    hi Rod,
    I did as you said and it seems to be connecting to the right server. But I have one more problem. In metalink document it says I have to enter the following in the Parameters text field of Function form in apps:
    workbook=<(workbook identifier from step2) &PARAMETERS=param_parameter name One~Parameter One Value*param_parameter name Two~Parameter Two Value*
    But I dont understand what should I have in place of param_parameter name One~Parameter One Value. Is it the name of the parameter given in discoverer, if so can you give me an example of how to write it. Because when I typed the name of the parameter like &PARAMETERS=Client Id, where client Id is the name of the parameter, it is giving me the following error
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
    Thanks for your help

  • How To:  Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email)

    I apologize if this is too basic of a question but I can't find any results after looking for several hours.
    I would like to generate a URL in an email that points to the portal and a specific portlet in the portal. The portlet has limited access rights so the URL should cause the portal to go through the login page and then redirect to the portlet. Can anyone point me to the documentation that describes this or give me an example?
    Thanks in advance!
    Mike

    Using the PTARGS might also solve another difficulty I've encountered passing (dynamic) querystring parms to portlets through the gateway. Your example seems to work great for portlets, but now trying to access a Community page containing a portlet to retain branding elements.
    For portal pages, should the ObjectID be the pageID (i.e PageID=0 for the default page) or is the ObjectID for a community page some other value (where in PlumDB is this stored) ? I changed the ClassIDView to 514 which should indicate a Community Page but it's still not loading my page. Adding to my confusion, the PTCOMMPAGES table stores the PageID as a negative value.
    Here's my example:
    http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_0_201_0_514/http%3B/portletserver/ApplicationName/default.aspx?querystring=value
    Any thoughts?
    re: How To: Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email) Posted by Mike Beniston 5/5/05 9:45:40 AM It turned out that I was pretty close.
    If anyone else is interested, here is one way that works.
    The PTARGS are _0_userid(leave at 0)_objectid(of portlet)_communityID(if any)_0_ClassIDView(43 = view for portlet)
    "http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_348_208_0_43/http://portletserver/ApplicationName/pagename?querystring arguments.

  • How to create a linked server to SQL in Oracle?

    I am able to create a linked server to Oracle in SQL.. But I do not know the steps to create a linked server too SQL in Oracle.
    How to create a linked server to SQL in Oracle? After creating the linked server to SQL, I would like to create triggers in Oracle DB to insert records into SQL DB.

    There are 2 products in Oracle you can use to link to a MS SQl Server. The first one is for free and it is called Database Gateway for ODBC. With a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver you can connect to any foreign database. The second gateway is our commercial gateway and it is called Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server. It is designed for MS SQl Server connections and more powerful then Dg4ODBC. It know how to map a lot of Oracle functions to SQL Server equivalents and you can also use it to directly call SQL Server procedures or functions. This dedicated SQL server gateway is also able to participate in distributed transactions.
    But again, this is a commercial gateway and you have to purchase a license for that second gateway, the Database Gateway for MS SQl Server.

  • Hi, I have Adobe Acrobat Professional.  I need to know how to create multi-links on 300 page docs

    I need to know how to create multi-links on a 300 page document, showing "return to main Menu".  Ideally placed on the bottom right of each page. I have adobe acrobat Professional. 

    Import a picture to be a button, place it, activate HYPERLINK tool, draw a rectangle around the whole button, in the window popping up select the link behaviour, submit with OK.
    Then copy & paste the button object to every page. I don't know whether pasting it on every of the 300 pages can be automated, but if not, it is still done quite fastly.

  • How to create a link which will redirect to a different iView?

    Hello,
    I have a certain iView, let's call it "myiView" which sits inside a certain Role, let's call it "myRole".
    At the Homepage of the users I have KM navigation iView which shows a certain folder. I would like to create inside this folder a link to "myiView", this way when users will click on this link at the Homepage they will be redirected automaticly to "myiView". I remember reading once something regarding internal links perhaps this is solution but I'm not sure. Can anyone please show me how to create such link which redirects to another iView at the portal.

    Roy

    Hey Prakash,
    I am creating a KM link to this target, where at this link I can write javascript? As far as I know it is only possible at the iView level no? And where do I take the PCD URL from?
    Hey Ashutosh,
    I think that your method will open a whole new browser since it is an external link, I woulk like to keep the current navgation at the same page, simply navigate the user to a different place at the portal...

  • How to create popup link in OAF dynamically or declaratively.

    Can anybody please help how to create a link as popUp in OAF dynamically or declaratively?

    Step 1: Create an OAPopupBean. For example:
    OAPopupBean popupBean =(OAPopupBean)createWebBean(pageContext,POPUP_BEAN,null,"myPopup");
    //Set the following properties on the pop-up:
    popupBean.setID("myPopup");
    popupBean.setUINodeName("myPopup");
    String popupRegion= "/oracle/apps/fnd/framework/toolbox/labsolutions/webui/TestEmpDetailsRN" ;
    popupBean.setRegion(popupRegion);
    popupBean.setHeight("130");
    popupBean.setWidth("320");
    popupBean.setTitle("Test");
    popupBean.setType(EMBEDDED_POPUP); /* Embedded type */
    Step 2: Select the item (messageStyledText, image, link, or button) on which you want to enable the pop-up, and set the following properties, as shown in this example:
    OATableBean tableBean = (OATableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("ResultsTable");
    OAImageBean image = (OAImageBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("UpdateImage");
    image.setPopupEnabled(true);
    image.setPopupRenderEvent("onClick");
    image.setPopupID("myPopup");
    Step 3: Add the pop-up as an indexed child of the region that contains the item on which the pop-up is enabled.
    Note: If you are enabling a pop-up on an item within a classic table, advanced table or HGrid, then you must add the pop-up and the item on which it is enabled to a layout and add the layout as the indexed child of the table.
    In this example, the pop-up is enabled on an image within a table, hence the pop-up is added as a second level indexed child of the table:
    OAStackLayoutBean stackLayoutBean = new OAStackLayoutBean();
    stackLayoutBean.addIndexedChild(popupBean);
    tableBean.addIndexedChild(stackLayoutBean);

  • How to Create Symbolic link using pure Java code?

    Hi,
    I would appreciate if someone can tell me how to create symbolic link using JAVA API. I have looked into many forums but couldn't get a better answer.

    Java is likely not the tool to use here, as symlinks are not present in Windows while "pure" Java attempts to be platform independent. You could use Runtime.exec to execute the ln -s command
