How to open and display a powerpoint file.

I'm working on an app that I would like to have open and view a powerpoint presentation. How would I go about doing this? Is there already some framework available that'll do it for me? Is there something that'll let me convert it to a pdf?
thanks for any help

And there may be, but you won't likely find that here. Do some time searching Google and maybe you'll find code that someone was nice enough to make freely available, although I wouldn't count on it. Were i a programmer and took the time to read those docs and write the code, I'd want to be paid for my time. But there are a lot of programmers who swear by freeware! You may get lucky.

How to open and read an external file in Dashboard widget?

I am new to Dashboard widgets and also Javascript. I have written a widget that needs to open and read a file on the local file system. I have searched a lot and have not found any documentation or reference on the internet as to how to do this.
I know it can be done since there is a checkbox in the widget attributes that says "Allow External File Access".
can anyone help me out here?
Thanks

You need to define the AllowFileAccessOutsideOfWidget key to Yes.
You also need to define the AllowFullAccess key.
You may also need to define the AllowSystem key (to Yes of course).

PS. If you cannot find any other documentation please check http://widgetbook.blogspot.com.

How to fetch and display arbitrary log files from a managed host?

We are creating a small management portal for a custom application and need a way to display, in a browser, the contents of an arbitrary log file located on an EM managed host. The effect we are looking for is similar to what you get when you show the contents of a database alert log using EM.
I want to extend the EM agent to get the log and display the contents, but see two problems: (1) it seems like we would have to schedule the fetch of the log contents to happen on a regular basis and would not be able to do it on demand and (2) storing the results in the EM repository seems like it could consume a pile of storage, even if it only stores the logs for 24 hours.
I am pretty sure we can bypass the repository somehow because I think the "show database alert log" EM process does so. Of course, I can't really be sure how this code is getting the alert log, but it seems reasonable to assume it is using the management agent.
Is there some API for the EM Agent that I am missing?
Any ideas would be appreciated.

From within OEM it doesnt look possible. User defined metrics (UDM) can only return number or a string. The alertlog fetch is done via alertlogViewer.pl while being passed a couple of parameters.
OEM does have a preliminary/rough api available at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/oem/emx/index.html but I havent seen anyone make use of it yet.
If you use just a web connection then you will probably run into security issues as a web server can usually only view/access stuff under their htmldoc dir.
Seems like some non-OEM very custom code is what you seek..

How to open and display htm file in iexplore

Friends,
Lets say i have a .htm file and its in the location of C:\BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETSALESAREAS\SALESAREAS.HTML , now i want to open that file in internet explorer when some one click on a particular button this would be happend.
I write following code :
import java.io.*;
public class Test{
public static void main(String[] args){
try{
     String command = "cmd /c start C:\BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETSALESAREAS\SALESAREAS.HTML";
          Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
          /* Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime( );
          rt.exec( "IEXPLORE.EXE" );
          return;*/
}catch(Exception e){
     e.printStackTrace();
This will give me the error due to specifying the path of html pages, will you tell me how to achieve that.
Thanks.
Hitz

u hav't given escape seq in
String command = "cmd /c start C:\BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETSALESAREAS\SALESAREAS.HTML";replace all \ by \\ it wil work..
ie.
String command = "cmd /c start C:\\BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETSALESAREAS\\SALESAREAS.HTML";

How to open and edit a VBscript file?

Hi,
I'm fairly proficient with Dreamweaver CS3. However, i'm finding one aspect of CS4 to be baffling to the extreme.
I work with VBScript files. When I open up a script file that includes other script files, the name of the parent file is seen on a tab (with an x to the right of it). Below it are tabs for all of the files that are included (via an include statement in the code). That's nice.
When I click on one of the included files I see that file show up in my window. However, I am unable at this point to get back to the file that included this one; i.e., the master file that is still above the other files.
If I click on the tab for the master file, I don't see the contents of this file. If I click on the small white paper icon (with the top right corner folded) on the left navigation bar, I see the name of the master file. Selecting it still doesn't fill my editor window with the master file.
There is a little symbol on the right side of the tabs for the included files. (It looks like >>, except the arrows face down.) This has the list of all of the files that I have open, minus the master file.
It is very hard to believe that Dreamweaver would make CS4 this hard to use. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to get the master file back in the editor window after I have clicked on one of the files it includes. Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks.

How to open and display and mail archive folder?

We were running Novell and GW for a number of years. Recently, we have migrated to Microsoft and Outlook. We have a number of GW archive folders that I now want to access. I understood that I could retain an installation of GW on my PC and although no longer connected to the server, I should be able to browse and open the archive, to retrieve these emails
Have tried this, but they dont display. When I go to check mailbox size, it is seeing data as the it reads the same file size as the folder of archived email - so I think they are there somewhere!
Any suggestions please??

How to open and view a demonstration file of MS Power Point 2010 on iPad 2?

Hello! I've made a MS Power Point file for my boss, he is using an iPad 2 (iOS 4) But he can only open a static picture of the presentation, but he can't view the presentation step by step as it should be. Which app or feature should he use to see full demonstration of presentation?
Thanks in advance!

Best bet is downloading Keynote made by Apple. It's 9.99 on the App store and lets you view, open, edit, and create powerpoint presentations. It's awesome!!!

How to open and play .exe file in Mac?

I am a new Mac user from of course Windows. I have a CD product catalogue which comes in a .exe format. There seemed no way that I can view the contents in Mac.
Does anyone have any solution for this?
Any help is most appreciate

As Thomas A Reed points out, an exe file is a windows application. I don't know why a product catalog would be in an exe file but I suppose it's possible. It seems more likely that the exe file is an application that either downloads the catalog or opens and displays a disk file containing the catalog; in the latter case you may already have the actual product catalog on your disk drive. Your might try using Spotlight to search for files with names containing key words related to your product catalog name. You also could use Spotlight to search file contents for key words you may recall from the catalog contents. Finally, is this possible: Use your old Windows PC or borrow one and run your "product catalog." While it is running, check for an option to export the information you need to a file in a format (say, text) that is readable on your Mac.

The best audience for applets is people off the internet. 'People off the internet' might be using a computer that has no (what was it?) 'open.html' in the root of the C: drive. In fact (shock horror) they may not even be running Windows, and would therefore probably have no 'C:' drive at all.
If you do not intend to distribute this to people off the web, an application makes a lot more sense, but even then, you cannot rely on the document being there unless you 'put it there' (during installation, for instance).
As the other poster intimated, applets can load documents off the local disk as long as they are trusted. Here is an example*, but note that it is not so rash as to presume any particular path or file, and instead leaves it to the user to choose the document to display.
* The short code can be seen at SDNShare on the [Defensive Loading of Trusted Applets|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2315] post.
On the other hand, a sandboxed applet can load any document coming from its own server via URL, or get showDocument(URL) to work. In that case, the JRE must recognize that the URL is from its own server, so the best way to form URLs for applet use is via the URL constructor
new URL(getDocumentBase(), "path/to/open.html");That is how I form the URL in this [ sandboxed example of formatting source|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/jh%2FHelpSetter.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. Of course, in this case the applet loads the document, then parses the text to draw the formatted version, but the point is that an URL produced this way will work with showDocument(URL).
I am pretty sure showDocument() in an applet off the internet will work with an URL pointing to a foreign (not its own) server, but it will not be able to load documents off the end user's local disks.
I suggest a couple of things.
- Try to express this problem in terms of what feature it is that you want to offer the end user. Your question jumps directly to a bad strategy for achieving ..who knows what? An example of a feature is "Shows the applet 'help' files on pressing F1".
- A good way to indicate interest in a solution is to offer [Duke stars|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunForums/Duke+Stars+Program+Overview] to match that interest.
Edit 1:
..and please figure out how to use the CODE tags.

When i attach a portable pdf to an email, it opens and displays contents. I want the file to remain closed - help. thanks

When I attempt to attach a portable pdf to an email, it automatically opens and displays in the email. I want the file to be attached not opened. I am new to MAC and do not understand this portable pdf concept. Lease help. all I want is a file to show on the email message which can be opened by the person receiving the email.

Mail shows any single-page PDF (as well as many other document types) as a preview in an email message rather than the icon, but it is actually being attached as a normal email attachment. Unless the recipient also has Mac OS X Mail, they'll just see the PDF as an attachment unless their mail application also shows PDFs in line.
There is a third-party product which can suppress this display so that all attachments including single-page documents just show in Mail as an icon. If that's of interest, let me know and I'll post the URL to the product. But it doesn't affect how the document is attached and the email sent, only how it displays on your system.
Regards.
