How to determine which user has an Access 2013 databse open

How can I tell which user / PC has opened a Backend Access database?

If the file is stored on a server and you have access to it, you could check in Computer Management, then go into System Tools, Shared Folders, Open Files, and you should find the file listed there along with which user has it open currently.

JSF: How to determine which element has the focus?

Hi all,
I have a JSP with some input fields and a text area. When I press "ENTER" the data I have entered should be saved. That works fine (I use JavaScript to catch the keyPressed-event). But when I want to insert a new line in the text area, I press ENTER too and this invokes the javascript function. So it�s not possible to insert a new line in the text area. And I don`t want to save the data when I�m just inserting a new line.
is it possible to determine which element has the focus at the moment of pressing ENTER? if it`s the text area then I won�t save the data and inserting a new line is possible? Or how to say: "Insert an new line if the user presses SHIFT+ENTER" or something like that?
I�m using JSC for my application and this is my JS-function:
function checkIt(evt)
var charCode = (evt.charCode) ? evt.charCode : ((evt.which) ? evt.which : evt.keyCode);
     if (charCode == 13)
          document.getElementById('form1:bt_Save').click();
          return false;
          return true;
I�m looking for something like that:
if(charCode == 13) {
if(document.getElementById('form1:textArea').hasFocus())
doNothing...
else {
document.getElementById('form1:bt_Save').click();
     return false;
thanks for any help

Hi,
I searched through many forums (js of course too) but
I couldn�t find a solution. Everybody knows how to
set the focus but not how to get it. We often use
JSF/JSP with javascript and maybe somebody here has
another approach to this problem (how to solve it
using jsf itself or anything else)?Take easy. I just suggested to search in a JavaScript forum , in your question you didn't mentioned this. Good luck man.

Is it possible to determine which user has opened a PDF on a network?

Hi Everyone.
We frequently have a situation where users open PDFs saved on the network with Acrobat, and then leave them open.
Then if other users need to edit the same PDF, they have no way of knowing the PDF is locked until they try to save and get this error:
"...The file may be read-only or another user may have it open... "
In this situation it would be useful to be able to interrogate the locked PDF to see which user has locked it open, and maybe to even force close the open session.
Does anyone know if any of this is possible?
Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Andy

It's not something that Acrobat can show. File 'locks' in Acrobat are not controlled by the application as they are in programs such as Word or InDesign - which write a lockfile to the folder - instead we rely on the server OS to flag each file. Information on who is accessing a file on a network share is only available at operating system level via the machine which hosts the share (e.g. via a net session command).

How to determine which application has focus in Windows

Hello all-
I'm trying to work around the "Labview freezes when there is large data on the clipboard known issue" (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Labview-freeze-when-accessing-a-custom-menu-with-data-on-the/m-p/200...) and one thought is to try to determine if Labview has focus, and if it does then clear the clipboard. If Labview doesn't have focus, then let the user use the clipboard. This would be a good work-around because it would let the users paste screen shots and such into notes files and wouldn't risk a nasty clipboard/ menu/ freeze-crash.
My initial search for determining windows application focus, came up empty though. This old thread (from 2005) pretty much covers it:
http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Is-there-a-simple-way-to-programatically-tell-which-VI-window/m-p/20...
The "Is Frontmost' property does not do it. I need to determine if Labview has focus, as opposed to Windows, notepad, firefox, etc. I also reviewed the commad prompt commands and didn't find anything immediately helpful there either.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Casey
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Christian-
That's perfect! By using GetForegroundWindow, GetWindowTextA and GetWindowFileNameA in user32.dll I can detect which window has focus. If Labview has focus then I programatically clear the clipboard so the user can still use it when not clicking on Labview windowns, but also we do not risk a freeze and crash because of the clipboard/ freeze bug.
I briefly thought about using the .NET versions of these functions, but because that would have forced an upgrade to at least .NET framework 3.0 for all of my user computers, I decided on the unmanaged user32.dll.
Thanks for the suggestion. I think I'm pretty close to a work around here that should last me until they fix the clipboard/ freeze bug.
Thanks,
Casey

How to determine which user uses which database-object

Hi,
currently we are in the process of consolidating our databases. One of the neccessary steps is to figure out which user connects to the database at all. That's easy, we implemented a logon-trigger and log the collected information into a separate table.
If a user with objects (e.g. tables, views, procedures) exists - but this user never connects to the database - does that automatically mean that these objects are not used at all? No need to say that this is not true. But how can we figure out if a connected user has selected an object of this user?
Our porblem is that we have alot of schemas in our database - but the developers don't know if this schema is not used by an application or not (sad but true).
To enable auditing would be one choice to figure out if an object was ever used or not.
Are there any other possibilities?
Any help will be appricated

Even though audit may have a footprint on performance, that would probably be less costly than any custom solution.

How to find which user has access to Discoverer Reports?

I need to find users having access to Discovered reports using a script. How can I do that?

Hi,
You need to give more details...
Are you using oracle applications? are the users database users?
If you use oracle application you can use the following:
SELECT DISTINCT Disco_Docs.Doc_Name "Discoverer Workbook"
,Trunc(Disco_Docs.Doc_Created_Date) "Workbook Create Date"
,CASE
WHEN Instr(Disco_Docs.Doc_Created_By
,'#') = 0 THEN
Disco_Docs.Doc_Created_By
WHEN Instr(Disco_Docs.Doc_Created_By
,'#') > 0
AND Instr(Disco_Docs.Doc_Created_By
,2) = 0 THEN
(SELECT Fu.User_Name
FROM Fnd_User Fu
WHERE Fu.User_Id = Substr(Disco_Docs.Doc_Created_By
,2
,5))
ELSE
NULL
END "Workbook Owner/Creator"
,Disco_Users.Eu_Username
,CASE
WHEN Instr(Disco_Users.Eu_Username
,'#') = 0 THEN
Disco_Users.Eu_Username
WHEN Instr(Disco_Users.Eu_Username
,'#') > 0
AND Instr(Disco_Users.Eu_Username
,2) = 0 THEN
(SELECT Fu.User_Name
FROM Fnd_User Fu
WHERE Fu.User_Id = Substr(Disco_Users.Eu_Username
,2
,5))
ELSE
(SELECT Resp.Responsibility_Name
FROM Fnd_Responsibility_Tl Resp
WHERE Resp.Responsibility_Id =
Substr(Disco_Users.Eu_Username
,2
,5))
END AS "Shared Name / Responsibility"
FROM Eul_Us.Eul5_Documents Disco_Docs
,Eul_Us.Eul5_Access_Privs Disco_Shares
,Eul_Us.Eul5_Eul_Users Disco_Users
WHERE Disco_Docs.Doc_Id = Disco_Shares.Gd_Doc_Id(+) AND
Disco_Users.Eu_Username(+) NOT IN ('EUL5', 'PUBLIC') AND
Disco_Users.Eu_Id(+) = Disco_Shares.Ap_Eu_Id

How to know which user has executed which ddl statement

Hi All,
Last week i faced some problem, like some one has truncated the table , so luckily i have the schema backup so i restored it till the last backup taken.
but i want to know who has executed this ddl statement.
i know there are some utilities are avaible with oracle, so please describe me the easiest and quickest way to get this.
Regards
Asif

In order of descending simplicity
- Use the principle of least privilege to restrict the privileges users have in the database to ensure that they cannot do things like truncating a table
- Enable auditing of potentially problematic statements. This has to be done before the damage is done, though
- Create a DDL trigger that logs when users issue DDL. This also must be done before the damage is done.
- Use LogMiner to go through the archived log files that were generated at the time the table was truncated. This assumes that the database is in ARCHIVELOG mode and that you have the archived logs from last week. Using LogMiner to track down the culprit is also likely to be relatively time-intensive

How to determine which drive has the most recent backup?

I have a few drives that contain backups of files. What would be the easiest way to figure out which of the drives has the most recent backup? When I sort by date, the folder shows one date, though the files inside show a different date? Is there a way to quickly check the drives to find which is the most recent?
Thanks.

the folder modification date isn't reliable, as is only tells of changed in the folder, but not in subfolders. there is no efficient way. I however highly suggest Time capsule, it is WAY easier and you can ask it not to sync the System data and/or applications, so it would prevent this hassle.
You could try this: go to the first drive, type different letters, like a for instance, and see which file is the most recent document/folder.
do the same thing on the other drives and compare.

How to find from the data dict if a user has read access on a directory

How to find "dynamically" if a user has READ access to a directory object.
I want to know if there is a data dictionary table that holds if a user/schema has read access to a directory object.
I know there is an dba_directories table and an all_directories table but they dont give information as to which user has read access granted to the directory.

Not so difficult.
select 'YES'
   from all_tab_privs A, all_directories B
   where a.grantee = 'USERNAME'
       and a.table_name = b.directory_name
       and b.directory_path = 'PATH YOU ARE LOOKING FOR'

How to find out which user has the permission to execute startsap ?

Hi All
How do I find out which user has the permission to execute the startsap and stopsap? Do I control the permission on those script using windows standard authorization? For example: only allow certain user have the read and write permission?
Thank you.!
Vincent Lo

Well to me this is really weird question..
<b>noone un-authorized should have access to OS on your system</b>
If this is valid you do not need to solve problems who can and who cannot start/stop SAP, because if you want to prevent some users from shutting down the SAP you have really hard job to do - there are many ways how to kill the SAP (for example killing relevant process from task manager, killing of database, messing with services etc.) - yes, this is harmful way of stopping SAP, but we are talking about attack, right? I would contact some Windows specialist to help you disable all the ways how to harm the running SAP. But still after that - there are many files that can be modified/deleted so SAP will crash after restart - you need to protect them too, etc.
In case you take the first assumption as granted (and you really limit access to this server) you do not need to worry who can stop or start SAP - at the other hand it may be handy to be able to start/stop SAP from other users - for this you can run the stop/start script "under different user".
But to answer the question - to me this is question just of access control (but really never tried that myself):
