How to search?

Sorry for being so stupid, but I cannot not figure out how to search this discussion group...
The help says "On most Apple Discussions pages, you'll find a Search Discussions box in the upper right corner" This seems clearly stated but I only see the site search function which is of little use. As I have explored around I have yet to see the pane described by the help as, "You can also refine your search by using the options in the Search Discussions Content pane"
I am no doubt missing something very obvious.
I would have searched for this answer but...
Thanks
Ronno

How to search whether a seat is available or not?

Hi,
I am developing a form in admin module for a call centre where there is a requirement to check whether a seat is available or not? The form contains a search window which the user enters the date in Location,catergory,From_date,to_date,time_from,time_to fields.
For example if he enters time_from as 06:00and time_from as 14:00 .That means the seat is occupied for 8 hours but is available for the remaining 16 hours. So the search result should show this seat also in the availability list. Every seat hava a unique seat_id.
another situation is a seat can be allocated between 22:00 and 06:00.That means it is crossing the day.That means that means in a day the seat is allocated from 00:00 - 06:00 and 22:00-23:59. How to search for this?
The seat can be allocated for any number of hours in a day. It can be 2 hours .3 hours or 4 hours....means there is no particular time slot system.
Can this be done using a sql query or plsql procedure?
can anybody help me in this regard
Thanking you,
Deekshit

Hi
U can use the following query in function.
SELECT CASE dumm
WHEN 'X'
THEN 'OK'
END
FROM (SELECT NVL (dummy, 'Y') dumm
FROM DUAL
WHERE TO_DATE (new_date_entered in varchar format, 'hh24:mi:ss') BETWEEN TO_DATE
(date_from in varchar format,
'hh24:mi:ss'
AND TO_DATE
(date_to in varchar format,
'hh24:mi:ss'
But need to b careful when the dates r changing. U can check dat by comparing time_from nd time_to values...in case of date change time_from value will be greater than time_to value(assumption==> seat can't be blocked for more than 12 hours). U can actually use the same query by reversing the conditions.. hope this will solve the problem

How to search the indexes in 11g Enterprise Manager Console

Hi,
After setting the Indexes using Java Embedding for a process, can you please tell me how to search the indexes in 11g Enterprise Manager Console for the particular process.In 10g BPEL Console we have the option of searching the Instances based on Indexes we already set at process level which is inbuilt in 10g.

Hi Sagar,
You can define composite sensors in your composite.
Then you will get fields in enterprise manager of that composite instance.(the sensors you have defined will be displayed here)
You can enter the values based on what you want to search the instance. :)

The top portion can search for the location of a string, while the bottom portion is to locate the position of a character. Both can search for a character.
The position of the character within the file is displayed in the indicator(s).

How to search data from a context node.

Hi Friends,
Thanks for ur help for previous problem . I am facing some other problem i.e how to
search data from a context node.
i have a context node :-
Car(main node) which consist of details, owners, engine and Brand as its sub node.
the value attibutes of difft nodes are:-
Car- category
Details- Mileage, Price, registration_no, miles_used
owner - name, phnno,addrs
Brand - main_brand, co_brand
Engine- Bhp,Rpm
Now i have to apply a search criteria on the basis of price, miles_used .
pls help to implement that .
Thanks & regards
Pravin jha

Hi PRAVIN,
What I can understand from your problem is that, you have a list with various properties and you want to display them and search them in your WD App. If I am correct, use the following approach:
Instead of using "details, owners, engine and Brand" Nodes, use the attributes inside the parent node. i.e in the node Car, add all the attributes viz. Mileage, Price, registration_no, miles_used, name, phnno,addr etc.
Now you can create a table of this node "Car" and can easily search on the basis of any criteria.
I hope this solves your issue. If you are looking for something else, please revert, I'll be happy to help you.
Cheers!!!

How to search records in a standard table with * ?

Hi everyone,
Can anyone tell me how to search records in a standard table with * ?
That is, in screen if user type * abc * for searching the records in which the field MC_STEXT contains 'abc'. What the code should be? How to complete the code below?
SELECT SINGLE objid FROM p1000 INTO p1000-objid,
WHERE MC_STEXT = ? .
Thanks!

Hi
There are several way to do that, probably just as some guys wrote the easier way is to use LIKE in WHERE condition and the sign % instead of *:
V_STRING = '%ABC%'.
SELECT SINGLE objid FROM p1000 INTO p1000-objid,
WHERE MC_STEXT LIKE V_STRING.
U can also use a range (just like select-options):
RANGES: R_MC FOR P1000-MC_STEXT.
R_MC-LOW = 'ABC'.
R_MC(3) = 'ICP'.
APPEND R_MC.
SELECT SINGLE objid FROM p1000 INTO p1000-objid,
WHERE MC_STEXT IN R_MC.

How to search a network/external hard drive in finder?

I use my Macbook at work where I am required to save all files I work on to a network hard drive on our server. I also have to be able to find and access files from the network drive for customers. In Snow Leapord I had the ability to type in the search bar in finder and it would search the entire network drive and find what I was looking for very quickly. Lots of people at work access the network drive, and every one of them has a different sense of organization. The ability to search is an absolute must in order to find anything. After upgrading to Lion, I discovered that the ability to search a networked or external hard drive has been removed. Lion only allows me to search my local hard drive in my Macbook. Does anyone know how to search a network hard drive in Lion? If not I am going to have to eat the 30 bucks and downgrade back to Snow Leopard. I have scoured through every little preference and option and have found nothing that even sounds remotely like it has anything to do with the search feature. Anyone please help, if not I am going to have to break out the time machine backups and remove this broken os from my computer.

system preferences, spotlight, privacy, add the network or external hard drive and then remove it from the privacy list. it should start to reindex this drive. You'll experience some slowness while this is happening and depending on how big your network is, it might take a really long time. But after that, you should be able to search in them as well. You can also organize what types of files show first so you can navigate to them easier.
hope this helps

How to search for particular string in array?

I am struggling to figure out how to search array contents for a string and then delete the entry from the array if it is found.
The code for a program that allows the user to enter up to 20 inventory items (tools) is posted below; I apologize in advance for it as I am also not having much success grasping the concept of OOP and I am certain it is does not conform although it all compiles.
Anyway, if you can provide some assistance as to how to go about searching the array I would be most grateful. Many thanks in advance..

Ok, so you have an array of Strings. And if the string you are searching for is in the array, you need to remove it from the array.
Is that right?
Can you use an ArrayList<String> instead of a String[ ]?
To find it, you would just do:
for (String item : myArray){
   if (item.equals(searchString){
      // remove the element. Not trivial for arrays, very easy for ArrayList
}Heck, with an arraylist you might be able to do the following:
arrayList.remove(arrayList.indexOf(searchString));[edit]
the above assumes you are using 1.5
uses generics and for each loop
[edit2]
and kinda won't work it you have to use an array since you will need the array index to be able to remove it. See the previous post for that, then set the value in that array index to null.

How to search a term in the source code

Hello ,
How to search a term in the source code. I have selection screen , on which a program name will be given and term to search. How can I proceed to know whether this term is available in the source code of the program
Thanks and regards,

Hi naga,
1. one option is to retrive the source code of the requried program,
into internal table using the syntax READ REPORT (just see f1 help on it)
READ REPORT prog INTO itab [MAXIMUM WIDTH INTO wid].
2. Then we can loop / search the internal table for the required term.

I have Adobe Reader XI with the package that allows me to send pdfs and convert pdfs to Word. When I open a pdf and try to search the search shows no matches even though the word I am searching for is in the document. Any suggestions how to search?

Once again, my thanks for your assistance. If I may impose on your generosity one more time, if I understand you correctly if I create a document on Word or WordPerfect, print it and scan it to create a pdf, the search function will not work. But, if I create the pdf document in Word the search function will work. Unfortunately, I am not sure how I create a pdf document in Word other than by printing it and scanning it. Could you please explain.

How to search text in the table?

Suppose, I've selected some fragment in my document, and I need to find and replace some text in it. Everything is ok, untill I select a part of a table with this text. Does anyone has idea, how to search through the selected cells in the table? Or, just how to iterate them?
Thanks!

var doc = app.ActiveDoc;
var tbl = doc.SelectedTbl;
// Navigate to the first selected row.
var row = tbl.FirstRowInTbl;
while (row.ObjectValid() === 1) {
    if (row.id === tbl.TopRowSelection.id) {
        break;
    row = row.NextRowInTbl;
// Process the selected rows.
while (row.ObjectValid() ===1) {
    cell = row.FirstCellInRow;
    while (cell.ObjectValid() === 1) {
        if ((cell.CellColNum >= tbl.LeftColNum) && (cell.CellColNum <= tbl.RightColNum)) {
            // Do something here...
        cell = cell.NextCellInRow;
    if (row.id === tbl.BottomRowSelection.id) {
        break;
    row = row.NextRowInTbl;
This should do what you want.
