How to save text file in same format for PC/Mac?

I have a text file on my Macbook. It doesn't have any special formatting. I save it to Dropbox and open it on my PC (Vista). All of the carriage returns are missing and text is a big run on. How do I get carriage returns to transfer to the PC?

Thanks Linc. Looks like I need to start using TextWrangler. I pasted from the TextEdit txt file into TextWrangler and carriage returns were missing. I formatted the file, saved with Windows CRLF format and it looks fine on Windows. Is that the correct format?

How to save a file in Java Format?

Hello All,
I want to save the files I'm writing in my program in java format?
(I want the result files to end with .java).
Is there a specific way to do this?
Thnx in advance :)

Wait. Are you saying that your java program is creating files, and you want the files to end in .java?
Are you writing a program that creates other programs? Because otherwise that makes no sense.
Or are you saying that you're writing Java source code in some editor, and you just want the editor to save the source code files with the appropriate extension? If so, how you do that will depend on the editor.

How to convert .avi files to .mov format for use in FCE ?

Hi guys,
I need to import an avi file into FCE. How do I convert it to mov format ?
Thanks

i am in the same boat. i have a canon G9 and automatically downloaded to iphoto without thinking. the videos i extracted seem to be .avi. what do i have to do to edit them in FCE4? i tried to convert them with prism, the video is messed up. i tried to put them into imovie instead, it won't let me do any effects on them. it's so confusing bc it lets the videos load in, or so i thought, but then it won't let me do anything to them? what do i do?

Will you save my file in another format for me?

I will send you the file which is from CS5, and then you save it as CS2, send me it, then I can see it.
Tell me your e-mail or e-mail me so I can see your e-mail. [email protected]
Thanks
BTW it's a small file.

I only heard it in passing while reading some tut a while back.
I've never personally tried it... never had the need or opportunity as we usually upgrade to the new CS tout de suite
Re-Edit: Thanks ♥

Hi,
Are you using FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY? If yes, then pass 'X' to the parameter I_SAVE while calling the fm.
if you are using Object Oriented ALV, then call the below method before calling the method for display
DATA : gr_layout TYPE REF TO cl_salv_layout,
       gr_layout_key TYPE salv_s_layout_key.
CALL METHOD gr_functions->set_all
EXPORTING
    value = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>TRUE.
MOVE sy-repid TO gr_layout_key-report.
CALL METHOD gr_table->get_layout
    RECEIVING
      value = gr_layout.
CALL METHOD gr_layout->set_key
    EXPORTING
      value = gr_layout_key.
CALL METHOD gr_layout->set_save_restriction
    EXPORTING
      value = if_salv_c_layout=>restrict_none.
CALL METHOD gr_layout->set_default
    EXPORTING
      value = if_salv_c_bool_sap=>true.

how can u insert and retrieve text files in any format using forms6i.

the filereference class is for downloading and uploading files.
if you want to load xml, use the xml class.
and, if you want to write to an xml file and don't want to use server-side code, wait.

Save a report (or text file) in pdf format?

Hi,
I like to save a kind of log file in a non changeable format like pdf.
I'm using the DSC module under LabVIEW are there some possibilities?
Or is there a chance to save text file into a postscript file?
Thanks for help,
martin

Hallo Martin,
to be able to write to a PDF file you need some extra software that is able to create those files.
Most of those programs are installing themselves as printer drivers, so if you want to wrate a table into a pdf file you will have to create a report and print it. LabVIEW insrtalls a couple of exaples regarding report generation, online I found an example for "printing" the frontpanel screen into a PDF.

Please, I need help - How can I generate a text file with Word format?

Hello friends at www.oracle.com ,
is it possible for me to create a text file - that is, with TEXT_IO.fopen, and so on - that's already formatted as a Word document?
We have a Forms program here, where it's needed to generate a text file with .RTF format, 8 centimeters margin, Times New Roman font, with size 7.
Best regards,
Franklin Goncalves Jr.

Hello Shay,
sincere thanks for your answer. And, to answer your last question, I'm using client-server model.
Since I couldn't create this .RTF file by using built-ins like TEXT_IO, I tried to generate an .RTF file using Reports, passing the parameters DESTYPE, DESNAME and DESFORMAT, as shown below.
add_parameter (pl_id, 'DESTYPE', text_parameter, 'FILE');
add_parameter (pl_id, 'DESNAME', text_parameter, 'c:\franklin.rtf');
add_parameter (pl_id, 'DESFORMAT', text_parameter, 'RTF');
However, the just generated .RTF file is uncomprehensible. After opening the file at Microsoft Word, I can see the following message at the top of file:
This file was created by Oracle Reports. Please view this document in Page Layout mode.
... and informations doesn't appear as desired.
If I can't generate such text format by using TEXT_IO, and if generating an .RTF file through Reports shows me an incomprehensible result, how can I export the selected result to an .RTF file?
When Reports is opened, choosing Generate to file -> RTF doesn't export anything.
Thanks, and best regards,
Franklin Goncalves Jr.

How can I transfer files between a PC and a Mac NOT on the same network?

I have an iCloud account, a Time Capsule and a Seagate Free Agent portable hard drive. Which ways can I transfer files (any or all three?) and how? Here's my dilemma: I'm a graphic designer and I work on a PC at my office. At home I use my MacBook Pro...same programs, save files. However, I had trouble earlier saving my new documents onto the Free Agent from my MacBook Pro as the Free Agent was Read Only and original files on it were from the PC. The PC is not on my Time Capsule network and not accessible or even close to my MacBook. I simply want to be able to save the files I updated/changed on my Mac to somewhere that I can access them later from that PC...right now they are saved to my Documents folder. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Format the external drive as FAT32 or ExFAT. Both computers will then be able to read and write to it.

SAP Query : Save to file in XLS format in background

Hello everybody,
I used the enhancement SQUE0001 for saving result (an XLS file) of SAP query in background.
I used also the ABAP commands 'OPEN DATASET', 'TRANSFER' and 'CLOSE DATASET' as described in the SAP note 537735.
The execution of SAP query generated multiple columns. But when I go to see my downloaded file (.xls), all generated columns are condensed into 1 !!!
How to save the file (.xls) and keep the separated columns, please?
Thanks for your answers.

For saving the file in Excel format in the App server you have to first convert the data in XLS format and then use the transfer statement.
You can either use FM SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT for that.
OR
Create a comma sepreated file which will open in excel.
open dataset file for output in text mode.
loop at itab.
    concatenate itab-field1 itab-field2 itab-field2 into str
                  separated by ','.
    transfer str to file.
endloop.
close dataset file.

How to load text files in GUI

plz tell me .. how to load and compare two text files using file popup's . example file i have attached..
Attachments:
testW_FF.txt ‏2 KB

I don't understand whether your question is on how to load text files or how to show them on a panel or how to compare them... or all aspects together!
The first operation (loading the file) can be accomplished with functions included in the Formatting and I/O Library like OpenFile, ReadFile and so on; with a file like yours even FileToArray could be an option.
How to show the data on screen is heavily dependent on what you intend to do with them: data can be shown in textboxes, listboxes, tables or graphs so... what do you want to do?
The same applies with comparison: without additional details is difficult to give you the proper hint.

How to Save a File in Oracle Forms 6 ?

Dear All,
I am using Oracle Forms 6. I need to save a file in .lst format.
I am using,
flnm:=get_file_name('E:\',file_filter=>'Text Files(*.lst|*.lst|');
I f I use this, It prompts me to save the file. I want to save it automatically without asking me to enter the file name. We can get file name too from the above syntax
flnm:=get_file_name('E:\','Test',file_filter=>'Text Files(*.lst|*.lst|');
But i dont want the system to prompt me to save manually. It must be saved in the proper location as mentioned.
Advance thanks for all.
Kindly help me to overcome this issue

Here's an example of a way to write out a file which writes out data from a particular block. The field names are hard coded so need to
be customized:
/* write out data as tab delimited file for import into
excel etc */
function write_file (myfile in varchar2) return varchar2 IS
out_file          text_io.file_type;
item_name varchar2(32);
errnum number := ERROR_CODE;
errtxt varchar2(80) := ERROR_TEXT;
myblock varchar2(32) := 'MY_BLOCK';
addrno integer := 0;
BEGIN
go_block(myblock);
go_record(1);
out_file := text_io.fopen(myfile,'w');
/* output field header for excel or word */
text_io.putf(out_file,'%s\n', 'notes' || chr(9) || 'subR' || chr(9)||'X' || 'someid' || chr(9) ||
    'title' ||chr(9)||
        'first_name'||chr(9)||'last_name'||chr(9)||
      'home_address'||chr(9)||'home_city'||chr(9)||'home_state'||chr(9)||'home_zip');
LOOP
      if (addrno > 0) then
             text_io.putf(out_file,'\n');
      end if;
      addrno := addrno + 1;
      text_io.putf(out_file,'%s',:MY_BLOCK.some_notes || chr(9));
      text_io.putf(out_file,'%s',:MY_BLOCK.sub_ripple || chr(9));
      text_io.putf(out_file,'%s','X' || :MY_BLOCK.someid || chr(9));
      text_io.putf(out_file,'%s',:MY_BLOCK.title || chr(9) || :MY_BLOCK.first_name

How to save iPhoto file in a separate portable hard disk drive?

How to save iPhoto file in a separate portable hard disk drive?

You want to move the iPhoto Library?
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
