How to search for a text string in Reports designer?

In iDS reports (10gR2), I want to search from top down for a text string was used in one of the queries or triggers. In Forms, you can do it, in reports the related menu item is always seems to be grayed out no matter what item I pick in the Navigator. Is it doable or not? If yes, then how. I don't wanna open each program piece including the queries in the data model, report triggers or program units and look for (by visual scanning) for the text I am searching for. This is crazy. There must be a way to do it. Thanx.

That is pretty bad for such an expensive report development program. The forms allows it, I wonder why Oracle did not include similar functionality in the reports developer. I knew the conversion to ascii, but during development it is pain in the ... just to search for a simple text string in the related program units in the report, to convert to ascii, do the search and then go back to the developer. Anyway, if that is the only way, there is nothing we can do I guess :(

How to search for a pattern string in entire registry and delete all the keys and subkeys that contain the pattern (C# or VB)?

I want to search for a pattern string in the entire registry and need to delete all the keys and sub-keys that contain the pattern. How can I implement this in VB Script or C#? Appreciate if you can give some sample examples. Now every time, I am manually
searching for the pattern in registry and deleting one by one.
Thanks Prasad

There is no built in way to do this. You'll end up having to enumerate all keys and values in the entire registry and comparing each one for a pattern using Regex or similar. This is going to be really slow but there isn't much else you can do about
it (other than parallelize the enumeration). Also note that you won't have permissions to all keys for read and/or write access so you'll need to skip over those using exception handling.

How to search for subset of string

Hi,
I'm trying to implement Oracle text in 8i and 9i to search for a given string or a subset of string.
For example, if the given string="Database Technology", I would like intermedia to first search for the exact string - "Database Technology",
if not found, then search for either "Database" or "Technology".
I'm only able to search for the exact string ("Database Technology") so far by using the contain clause. I'm not able to get Oracle Text to return me any records that also contains "Database" or "Technology" if the exact match "Database Technology" cannot be located.
Any help is very much appreciated.
thanks.

You need to use the ACCUM operator. It raises the score based on the the frequencies of more than one word. Here are the contents of my TEXT1 test table:
TEXT
database
server
database server
database blah blah database
database blah blah server
select score(1), text1.* from text1 where contains(text,'database ACCUM server ACCUM database server',1) > 0 order by score(1) desc;
and here are the results:
SCORE(1) TEXT
68 database server
34 database blah blah server
2 database blah blah database
1 server
1 database
You may want to put a multiplier on the "database server" phrase's score to increase the score on when the complete phrase is found. That looks like this, for example:
select score(1), text1.text from text1 where contains(text,'database ACCUM server ACCUM database server*3',1) > 0 order by score(1) desc

i want to search for the author of the book "the beard" using for example the V.I Get first match of labview to access the the node with value "the beard" and then use Get next sibling V.I and Get node text content to get get the author of this book..so my question is how do i write the xpath expression for Get first match so as to access the node with bookname "the beard" instantyly? am trying to minimise the use of loops because they increase the time duration,..thank you (NB:i dont want to use Get all Matched V.I because it obliges me to use a loop in order to access the name derrick and this increases the time duration for my v.i)
Solved!

Since it's all text, why not use a real quick Match Pattern (or Regular Expression, but you don't need that much power here), see attached.

How to search for a specific String within an ArrayList

I am creating an inherited class, CD, that has a field of "tracks". I am wondering how you would search through the ArrayList and list the track number that correlates with a search term. For instance, if I have a track called "Radar Love" and it is track number 2, how would I create the search function to find out what track number "Radar Love" is?

int index = 0;
boolean found = false;
while(index < tracks.size() && !found){
String track = tracks.get(index);
if(track.contains(searchString)){

return index;It's still the same code. I attempted putting in a return statement with tracks.get(index), but it didn't work.Edited by: Edward_Kimber on Nov 15, 2008 2:57 PM

How to search for a matching string

<cfcatch>
<CFMAIL to="[email protected]" From="[email protected]"
Subject="Error message" Type="HTML">
#cfcatch.message#
</CFMAIL>
</cfcatch>
I need to create a condition based on the string in the
message, if #cfcatch.message# is "The element at position 12 of
dimension 3 can not be found" I need to deliver certain message
through email BUT if #cfcatch.message# is matching other
sentence I need to deliver a different message.
I used the following condition (see below) but it somehow did
not work, even when I know for sure the error message is saying the
right think, for example, "The element at position 12...etc"
Is there a way to do this differently or have I done it wrong
somewhere?
<cfif #cfcatch.message# EQ "The element at position 12 of
dimension 3 can not be found">
Deliver message 1
cfelse>
Deliver message 2
</cfif>

Why not catch a specific error type?
<cftry>
<cfthrow type="foo.bar.custom" message="anything you want
to say!">
<cfcatch type="foo.bar.custom">
Do something special here!
</cfcatch>
<cfcatch type="Any">
An Unknown error has occured!
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
If you're not sure of the error that is being thrown, dump
the cfcatch and grab the first part of the stack trace and then
recode using that error type in your cfcatch block.
Here's an example of catching an invalid file format upload
with cffile.
<cftry>
<cffile action="upload" destination="#pathInfo#"
fileField="imagefile" nameconflict="makeunique" accept="image/jpg,
image/jpeg, image/png, image/eps, image/tif, image/gif,
application/pdf" >
<cfcatch
type="coldfusion.tagext.io.FileTag$InvalidUploadTypeException">
Invalid File Type
</cfcatch>

How to search for exact string?

Is there any way to search for the text string exactly as I enter it? Like 'exact search' in the OSS notes?
For example, I'm trying to find the forum posts regarding the Excel 2007 file format XLSX. By XLSX the search finds hundreds of entries, but most of them are not even close. For example, this was one of the top results: /thread/1078918 [original link is broken]
Why is it getting picked up when 'xlsx' doesn't even appear there? We are frequently complaining about the users who don't use search before posting, but, frankly, if it works like this, I can't blame them...

"Why is it getting picked up"
I regularly use this to (re)find threads where I remembered a specific comment or even spelling mistake.
Perhaps a better option in your case would be to use an AND between individual terms.
I generally tend to edit the search string parameters directly, as it seems to cache previous results and do a search within a search. That might be an option for you as well though.

Hey Chen,
Well before i do the search and edit , I am actually opening a .mts file in word which is happening successfully.
The issue that i am facing now is I am unable to save it as .doc file through the 'SaveAs' method.
Here is my code. Can u please tell me what i need to do in order to correct this.
After i do this conversion i intend to pass the data from the .doc file to an internal table and then do the required change.
But First i need to save it to .doc type.
REPORT MAIN_PROGRAM_2.
INCLUDE OLE2INCL.
*Declaration Of OLE2_Object Variables.
DATA: WORD            TYPE OLE2_OBJECT,
      DOCUMENTS       TYPE OLE2_OBJECT,

The Save part of the code is giving me an OLE error = 2

How to search for upper/lower case using string using JAVA!!!?

-I am trying to write a program that will examine each letter in the string and count how many time the upper-case letter 'E' appears, and how many times the lower-case letter 'e' appears.
-I also have to use a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() to tell the user how many upper and lower case e's were in the string.
-This will be repeated until the user types the word "Stop".
please help if you can
what i have so far:
[code]
public class Project0 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] uppercase = {'E'};
String[] lowercase = {'e'};
String isOrIsNot, inputWord;
while (true) {
   // This line asks the user for input by popping out a single window
   // with text input
   inputWord = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please enter a sentence");
   if ( inputWord.equals("stop") )
    System.exit(0);
   // if the inputWord is contained within uppercase or
   // lowercase return true
   if (wordIsThere(inputWord, lowercase))
    isOrIsNot = "Number of lower case e's: ";
   if (wordIsThere(inputword, uppercase))
     isOrIsNot = "number of upper case e's: ";
   // Output to a JOptionPane window whether the word is on the list or not
   JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The word " + inputWord + " " + isOrIsNot + " on the list.");

How to Search for "(" error in a string?

I am trying to search for "(" in a string, however the compiler thinks that I searching for a regular expression, and fails.
Exception in thread "main" java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Unclosed group near index 1
Please help me find a way to search for "(" in a string.
Example:
String test="This is a test.";
if (test.matches("(")){
System.out.println("There is a match")
I also tried:
test.matches("\050")
and test.matches("\(")
Thank you!

I also tried:
test.matches("\050")
and test.matches("\(")For this particular problem, I think indexOf is a more appropriate solution. However, for future reference, I think what you want to do for parentheses is escape the backslash, not the bracket.
i.e.
test.matches("\\(");

How Can I replace newScale Text Strings with Custom Values?

How Can I replace newScale Text Strings with Custom Values?
How can I replace newScale text strings with custom values?
All newScale text is customizable. Follow the procedure below to change the value of any text string that appears in RequestCenter online pages.
Procedure
1. Find out the String ID of the text string you would like to overwrite by turning on the String ID display:
a) Navigate to the RequestCenter.ear/config directory.
b) Open the newscale.properties file and add the following name-value pair at the end of the file:res.format=2
c) Save the file.
d) Repeat steps b and c for the RmiConfig.prop and RequestCenter.prop files.
e) Stop and restart the RequestCenter service.
f) Log in to RequestCenter and browse to the page that has the text you want to overwrite. In front of the text you will now see the String ID.
g) Note down the String ID's you want to change.
2. Navigate to the directory: /RequestCenter.ear/RequestCenter.war/WEB-INF/classes/com/newscale/bfw.
3. Create the following sub-directory: res/resources
4. Create the following empty text files in the directory you just created:
RequestCenter_0.properties
RequestCenter_1.properties
RequestCenter_2.properties
RequestCenter_3.properties
RequestCenter_4.properties
RequestCenter_5.properties
RequestCenter_6.properties
RequestCenter_7.properties
5. Add the custom text strings to the appropriate RequestCenter_<Number>.properties file in the following manner (name-value pair) StringID=YourCustomTextString
Example: The StringID for "Available Work" in ServiceManager is 699.
If you wanted to change "Available Work" to "General Inbox", you would add the following line to the RequestCenter_0.properties file
699=General Inbox
Strings are divided into the following files, based on their numeric ID:
Strings are divided into the following files, based on their numeric ID:
String ID File Name
0 to 999 -> RequestCenter_0.properties
1000 to 1999 -> RequestCenter_1.properties
2000 to 2999 -> RequestCenter_2.properties
3000 to 3999 -> RequestCenter_3.properties
4000 to 4999 -> RequestCenter_4.properties
5000 to 5999 -> RequestCenter_5.properties
6000 to 6999 -> RequestCenter_6.properties
7000 to 7999 -> RequestCenter_7.properties
6. Turn off the String ID display by removing (or commenting out) the line "res.format=2" from the newscale.properties, RequestCenter.prop and RmiConfig.prop files
7. Restart RequestCenter.
Your customized text should be displayed.

I've recently come across this information and it was very helpful in changing some of the inline text.
However, one place that seemed out of reach with this method was the three main buttons on an "Order" page. Specifically the "Add & Review Order" button was confusing some of our users.
Through the use of JavaScript we were able to modify the label of this button. We placed JS in the footer.html file that changes the value of the butt
