How to refresh .swf file whose source data is only using "EXCEL"

Can Some one help me out with this please.........
I developed a dashboard using excel (embedded in xcelsius 2008) and then exported it to .swf file.
Now when the data changes in .xlf file. I want my swf file to refresh the data.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
   Read the below instructions extracted from KB Article 1424833 and see if it helps
XML files need to be designed in a specific structure in order to work correctly in Xcelsius 2008. Below are some important conventions:-
1) The XML code should start and end with data tag like <data>...</data>.
2) Row and column tags must be used to encapsulate data.
3) Everything is case sensitive.
4) While inserting a range in XML data connection, the range name should be similar to the variable name defined in the XML code.
The xml code should look like this:-
<data>
<variable name="ExampleRange">
<row>
<column> Row1 Column1 value </column>
<column> Row1 Column2 value </column>
<column> Row1 Column3 value </column>
</row>
</variable>
</data>
In Xcelsius, we have to give range name=ExampleRange and then assign the Excel cell to load the data.
Regards,
Ken

How to generate SWF file with dynamic data but no live connection

Hello,
We got a requirement where we have to email out SWF file either in PPT or outlook generated from BOBJ universe. When the file reaches the customer who would be outside our network with no access to our servers or data should be able to view the swf file with data. So the goal is to generate these files automatically and should not prompt for BOBJ login or wouldn't have ability to query the database but need to report data pertaining to the customer.
Any help in this regards is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Manohar

Hi Manohar,
You can use QAAWS(query as a web services) and build your queries on universe.
You get an option of hardcoding the user id and password in the data connection for QAAWS which will not asks the users for login credentials.
This will hepl the user to veiw the latest data from the database and the user wont be asked for login too.
Thanks,
Amit.

How to publish XML document whose source is stored in clob column

I have to create simple application:
in one table are stored some information about XML documents (date of creation, etc.) and the document source itself in one (unfortunatelly clob type) column.
The point is to anable users finding document(s) and viewing it.
Using forms I can search and display information about documents. But I have no idea how to publish XML document whose source is stored in clob column.
I am using Oracle Portal 3.0 on NT.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sergio,
This link might be helpful:
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/apex/r31/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm
Also refer the BLOB Download Format Mask :
{message:id=9716335}
Here I have given the format mask for APEX 4.0, which will slightly differ for 3.2.1 and proposed changes
in the format mask are:
1) Format Mask: DOWNLOAD
2) Content Disposition: Inline
This will be achieved with it:
>
But now, my user would like to know if it´s possible that APEX application can OPEN some of these files stored on this BLOB column WITHOUT download it.
My user would like to see a hiperlink (or button) that, if pressed/acessed, can open a new page (or a page inside application) with the document. He doesn´t need to edit this oppened file. He only wants to see it.

Hope it helps!

You never delete a Time Machine backup by dragging it to the Trash. You are supposed to use the TM application to manage the backups. What you will need to do now is to simply erase the drive using Disk Utility.

How to Hyperlink SWF File

Sorry if this was already discussed, hyperlink swf hit nothing here and I don't know what else to search.
I placed a client's .swf file in my web page and I am unable to hyper-link it back to her site.
What am I missing?

> I use Flash so I build my links within the SWF file.
If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
2. Search engines don't parse Flash links - your site will not be spidered
most likely
3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what will those users
do?
4. Your authoring cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
move or rename
a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do? You will have
to remake those buttons.
It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons - and for these reasons,
Adobe has removed Flash buttons and Flash text from the next version of
Dreamweaver.
With regard to the 'over Flash' question, all Active content on a page will
always rise to the top, so to speak, including Flash, certain form elements,
Java applets, and Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can use the Flash
wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this properly!).

*** Question How to load a file into BI-Integrated Planning and use WAD 7.0

Hi, I created an manual DTP upload to my planning infocube and it works fine. The transformation rules convert 0CALMONTH into the relevant Calendar and Fiscal characteristics. So all of my Time Characteristics are fine, both Calendar and Fiscal.
However, When using the "How to load a file into BI-Integrated Planning and use WAD 7.0" solution, only the Calendar Characteristics are populated and not the Fiscal. The upload application somehow knows to populate the 0CALMONTH2, 0CALQUART1, 0CALQUARTER, and 0CALYEAR.
How can I get the upload to populate my Fiscal Period Characteristics?
Would it be best to modify the "Upload Application, or can I write a planning function to update the fiscal characteristics, or some other way?
Thanks!

My planning data is being uploaded via the SDN Planning File Upload Solution. What I did was end up modifiying the upload class ZCL_RSPLF_FILE_UPLOAD Method EXECUTE.
I added the following code if anyone is interested.

How do I get files from multiple DVDs that are using thesame file names?

How do I get files from multiple DVDs that are using thesame file names? Message says "file already exists in catalog"
Message was edited by: marcr56

I am viewing your question from different perspective, that is, the issue that you face when you are ripping VOBs from a second DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc using Premiere Elements,
It is best to give the Premiere Elements version and computer operating system that it is running on. In the absence of that, I will generalize.
Assuming that you are using
Premiere Elements 12
Add Media
"DVD Camera or Computer Drive"
Video Importer
Typically the Video Importer Save In: is C:\Users\Owner\Videos
Each of your DVD discs is going to have the same names for the ripped VOBs (VTS_01_1.VOB and so on depending on the duration of the movie). Consequently, after the ripping of the first DVD's VOBs and their save to Videos, you will end up with that "files already existing..." block for the ripping of the VOBs from the second DVD.
The answer is, for each DVD disc VOB ripping, to plan ahead and create and set for different folders in Videos in the Save In field of the Video Importer.
Please review and then let us know if that works for you. Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thank you.

How to open PSD file recieved via email on iPad using Photoshop Touch without Creative Cloud?

Hi, how to open PSD file recieved via email on iPad using Photoshop Touch without the need of using Creative Cloud? Thanks.

Hi Super Nemo
Currently the only way to open psd files on Photoshop touch is via the creative cloud. Also, the layers you created from Photoshop on your desktop machine will be flattened when opened with Photoshop touch on your iPad. But you can retain the layers from the touch app when opening the psdx file on your desktop photoshop.

How does the backup file that I would like to use for restore now require a password

How does the backup file that I would like to use for restore now require a password, when I just Backed it up on 10/30/14

It requires a password to restore from it because at some point, you checked the box in iTunes to use encrypted backups, at which point you were prompted for, and set a password.
If you now can't remember what that was, then you can not restore from that backup.

How can I remove Classic 9.2.2 and only use my 10.3.9?

How can I remove Classic 9.2.2 and only use my 10.3.9? Is it as simple as deleting the Classic Applications Folder and the System Folder?

Hi JEF55!
If you are sure that you no longer want or need OS 9, you can remove it with the procedure below.
This is the method that cornelius posted, but the restart step, which is sometimes necessary, was omitted.
In the HD folder, open the folder titled System Folder with the 9 on it.
Not the one titled System, with the X.
Select all of the contents (Command + A keys), and move to the Trash.
Open the folder titled Applications (Mac OS 9).
Select all of the contents (Command + A keys), and move to the Trash
Restart the Mac.
The empty folders can then be moved to the Trash.

How to cache swf files to reduce load time?

Hi,
We are using the XML data connection for our swf files. Some of our swf files are large and may take a minute to load. Is it possible to cache the swf files so they load in a shorter amount of time? If so, how would I go about doing this? Thanks!

Jim,
There is no option as such in Xcelsius.
We used SAP BI Query as a source for our dashboard and we had similar issue, we then cached the SAP BI Query to reduce the load time....it worked really very well!!
Try doing something similar in the source system...

How to stream .swf file?

By using playMedia, I can display .mov and .dat file by Quicktime. Could you give me any info about what to do in order to display .swf file? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I understand this is quite old topic but the question is actual for a lot of developers.
The problem is that Flash ActiveX doesn't contain a method that plays movie from any source except file path or URL.
So there are two approaches are possible:
1. Emulate file by creating a fake file that provides data from your array. You may BoxedApp SDK for that, look here: BoxedApp SDK Features
2. Use special .net component that provides this feature: http://f-in-box.com/dotnet/
Hope this helps.

How to deal with such Unicode source data in BI 7.0?

I encountered error when activating DSO data. It turned out that the source data is Unicode in the HTML representation style. For example, the source character string is:
ABCDEFG& #65288;XYZ (I added a space in between & and # so that it won't be interpreted to Unicode in SDN by web browser)
After some analysis, I see it's actually the Unicode string
ABCDEFG（XYZ
Please notice the wide left parenthesis. It's the actual character from the HTML $#xxx style above. To compare, here is the Unicode parenthesis '（' and here is the ASCII one '(' . You see they are different.
My question is: as I have trouble loading the &#... string, I think I should translate the string to actual Unicode character (like '（' in this case). But how can I achieve this?
Thanks!

I found this is called "Numeric character reference", or NCR, in HTML term. So the question is how to convert string in NCR fashion back to Unicode. Thanks.
