How to read ASCII from PLC memory location

How can I read ASCII data stored in a PLC memory location from LookOut?

Thanks for the help Khalid.
I should have given more detail in my post. I can connect to the PLC fine (it's a DierectLogic 205 series with a 260 CPU). My connection is Ethernet. I have no problem reading and writing to Vmemory locations or to input and outputs of the PLC. In this application I'm saving ASCII data from a Keyence barcode reader directly into Vmemory locations of the PLC through the serial port of the PLC. What I need to do now is view that data (in ASCII) in Lookout. When I view the addresses (i.e. DL1.V2000) with ASCII data stored in them through Lookout all I "see" is the decimal equivalent to the ASCII. Is there anyway to convert this back to ASCII? I know Lookout has a ASCII com driver that I could use if I could physically connect
the barcode scanner to the PC however this would not be possible, the barcode scanner has to be connected to the PLC on the production floor. Lookout is great, I�ve been using it for years but I really wish it would let you designate the type of data it�s reading (BCD, HEX, OCTAL, Decimal, TEXT, etc.), rather than always assuming it�s decimal.
If you need any other info please ask�

How to read data from external memory

Hi all,
I am using MB5B report in my program to get Current stock. So, I have submitted MB5B report in background and i have exported the result to SAP memory. Now i want to read some of the values of exported output. I don want to use complete MB5B output. Only soem fields from MB5B report.
How can I do it ?
Thx & regards,
Ravi

Hi,
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters can be set either for a particular user or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement. Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement. The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens
SAP Memmory - use to acess memmory area between session
eg:- when u call a transaction or report ( within ur program) want the value of the prticular field should have value define by you.
Then you use GET and SET parameter command field you set or get should have parameter ID
Set

GET
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Campus/6345/get_para.htm
EXPORT

Award points if found helpfull....

Reading Files from an FTP location based on Timestamp

Hi,
I have a requirement of reading files from an FTP location. The files should be read in the order they were saved in the folder. Can someone tell me how to solve this?
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Arik,
Thanks for your reply. I tried doing what u said, but it isn't working. My requirement is to List the files in the folder using FTP adapter and get the file name with the least file stamp from the FTP adapter and pass the FileName dynamically to another FTP adapter which reads the file based on the FileName. When i tested after including the property (for listing the files) you mentioned, it is giving the following error (copied from flow trace):

DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
String strLine;
//Read File Line By Line
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
// Print the content on the console

Try with JFileChooser
               JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
               int returnValue = fileChooser.showOpenDialog(null);
               if (returnValue == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
                    File selectedFile = fileChooser.getSelectedFile();
                    System.out.println(selectedFile.getName());

How to read data from an internal table into a real table?

Hello experts,
I'm relatively new to ABAP and I'm trying to figure out how to read data from an internal table into a table that I created. I'm trying to use the RRW3_GET_QUERY_VIEW_DATA function module to read data from a multiprovider. I'm trying to read data from the e_cell_data and e_axis_data tables into a table that I've already created. Please see code below.
TABLES MULTITAB.
DATA:
query_name TYPE RSZCOMPID,
s_cubename TYPE RSINFOPROV,
t_cell_data TYPE RRWS_T_CELL,
t_axis_data TYPE RRWS_THX_AXIS_DATA,
t_axis_info TYPE RRWS_THX_AXIS_INFO,
wa_t_cell_data like line of t_cell_data,
wa_t_axis_data like line of t_axis_data,
w_corp_tab like line of t_cell_data.
s_cubename = 'CORP_MPO1'.
query_name = 'Z_corp_test'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'RRW3_GET_QUERY_VIEW_DATA'
       EXPORTING
         i_infoprovider           = s_cubename
         i_query                  = query_name
        i_t_parameter            = query_string_tab
       IMPORTING
         e_cell_data              = t_cell_data
         e_axis_data              = t_axis_data
         e_axis_info              = t_axis_info.
If anyone has any information to help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi,
<li>Once you call the function module RRW3_GET_QUERY_VIEW_DATA, lets say data is available in the corresponding tables e_cell_data e_axis_data which you have mentioned.
<li>Modify your internal table defined for other purpose, with data from e_cell_data e_axis_data like below.
LOOP AT t_cell_data INTO wa_t_cell_data.
"Get the required data from t_cell_data.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING wa_t_cell_data TO it_ur_tab.
"Modify your internal table wih data
MODIFY it_ur_tab TRANSPORTING <field1> <field2> <field3>.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT t_axis_data INTO wa_t_axis_data.
"Get the required data from t_cell_data.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING wa_t_axis_data TO it_ur_tab.
"Modify your internal table wih data
MODIFY it_ur_tab TRANSPORTING <field1> <field2> <field3>.
ENDLOOP.
Thanks

Reading files from phone memory

Hi All,
I am developing a Universal application using vs 2013 in windows phone 8.1. I am stuck in finding and reading file from phone memory.
I have used the Localfolder syntax
StorageFolder folder = Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder;but it didn't worked. Its Showing the application data. But i want to read the file exixts in my phone memory.Then i have usedStorageFolder file = KnownFolders.DocumentsLibrary;but as i read from the forums its not suggested way to approach. Please suggest me the way to find the file from phone memory and to read it.Any help would be appreciatable!!

Hi sarika,
That is expected, see the documentation for more information:
App capability declarations at Documents section, you need declared at least a file type association.
Furthermore You can't use the Documents library in a Windows Phone Store app.
You can't publish a Windows Phone Store app that specifies the documentsLibrary capability to the Windows Phone Store. The Store blocks the publishing of the app.
Your app can't access the Documents library in the phone's internal storage. If another app creates a Documents folder on the optional SD card, however, your app can see that folder.

Help me how to read the Hyperlinks from the PDF file using java ...
Thanks in advance,
With Regards,

Instead of cross-posting unformatted code you could have taken a look at the API, because there you might have come across a method named getLinks...Even though it's not documented, I really suspect that it will return the Hyperlinks on a given page.
