How to set default programs???

How to set default programs?
An example: when I click on a .doc it opens in TextEdit, but I want it to open with NeoOffice (to make that happen now requires right-click>open with>NeoOffice)
How can I set NeoOffice as the default program for .doc, .xls, .ppt?
And set default programs for other files?
Thanks.

Select a .doc and go File -> Get Info
In the resulting window you'll see a pane called Open With... Select your preference from the Drop Down. To make the new app default for all these types, click 'Change All...'

How to set default program to open file types

What I am wanting to do is be able to open music saved in Apple Lossless format in other than iTunes, say in maybe Quicktime. I have most of my music in this format and want to keep them that way so when I want to add an album to iTunes it's already in lossless format. But as it is now with iTunes as the default, anytime I even play one song it is imported into iTunes and I have to go back and delete it.
I am sure there is a way to make the default program for .m4a files not iTunes?

If you are just previewing music files you can also click on the song and hit your SpaceBar on the keyboard to listen to the song.

How to set default values in dialog programming

hi gurus
can anyone suggest me
how to set default values in dialog programming
thanks&regards
kals.

it's a bit dirty but I usually just place it in the PBO with a flag for control. It's simple and not too costly i think.
MODULE preRender OUTPUT.
DATA first_time TYPE flag VALUE 'X'.
IF first_time EQ 'X'.
* put your initialization code here
CLEAR first_time.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.

How do you set default programs for all users when deploying Windows 8.1?

I have my Windows 8.1 image set up the way I want including the start screen, theme, etc. But how can I set the default programs for all users. Most of out computers are non-touch and I want the desktop apps (e.g. Windows Photo Viewer), not the store apps
to be the default for opening pictures, videos, etc. Can that be done?

Great question, this has been bugging me too!
So, I did some research by using "Set Default Programs" app in Windows 8. Then I ran the super ProcMon.exe tool from Sysinternals.com <Thanks Mark!>
After filtering out the junk, I could see some *interesting* writes to the registry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.jpg\UserChoice]
"Hash"="57y87/ogggU="
"ProgId"="PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Jpeg"
But the "Hash" part had me concerned. I did some internet searching for the hash, and came across a post and a pointer to a blog with some answers. This is both good news and bad.
Background:
One of the problems with Windows XP is that any program can come in and party on the entire system. No, I don't want you to put a shortcut on the desktop, install a crappy IE Toolbar, and change the default file association for *.jpg files to your app, I
just wanted to play a stupid game. Since Windows 7, Microsoft has been attempting to block that functionality from the stupid applications, and give them back to the user. Take note of the last line in the ITaskbarList3 interface:
Applications cannot programmatically pin themselves to the taskbar. That functionality is reserved strictly for the user.
Of course that sucks for us IT Pros who may wish to create *default* working environments for corporate images, but there are some tricks we can do.
Solution:
This blog appears to have the answer:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/mrmlcgn/archive/2013/02/26/windows-8-associate-a-file-type-or-protocol-with-a-specific-app-using-a-gpo-e-g-default-mail-client-for-mailto-protocol.aspx
New for Windows 8 is a dism command: /Get-DefaultAppAssociations that allows you to export a control case from a known good computer. Microsoft the supports importing the exported xml file via GPO. For example, before I changed the file association, .AVI
was pointing to the Modern App, after the change the /export-DefaultAppAssociations shows change to the new app:
From:
<Association Identifier=".avi" ProgId="AppXhjhjmgrfm2d7rd026az898dy2p1pcsyt" ApplicationName="Video" />
To:
<Association Identifier=".avi" ProgId="VLC.avi" ApplicationName="VLC media player" />
I am still doing some investigation to see if a GPO is required, or if you can inject the association into a local user account. Also, if you do have some Modern Windows 8 Touch Tablets, it would recomend keeping most of the Modern App defaults in place,
perhaps seperate GPO's for Desktops/Laptops vs Tablets?

and at content type level:
<FieldRef ID="{EFE23A1D-494E-45cf-832E-45E41B17F0CF}" Name="ScopeSpanish" DefaultValue="TRUE" Required="TRUE" />
But in any case, when i create a new item with this content type, default value is applied.
Can anyone tell how to set default values for boolean columns?

How to set default reject reason in VA01 (create sales order)

Hi
Everybody can tell me how to set default reject reason for item in sales order.
in our sap system there are a default reject reason as '90'. We want to set it as "Null".
Thanks
Henry

Hi,
Assigning a default Reason for Rejection is not in standard SAP. I am sure there is some enhancement/user exit which updates the reason for rejection.
Please get the help of an ABAPer, create the sales order in debugging mode and he will find out the logic behind the automatic reason for rejection.
Before that you can find the exits in the include MV45AFZZ for any code related to this.
Hope this helps

How to set default file path while downloading alv output

Hi,
Can anyone tell me that how to set default file path while downloading the ALV output to system using Local file button on tool bar.
Please look below screenshots:
Kindly help me resolve it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ashutosh Katara

This information initial value is (maybe) stored in Windows Register (register.exe) at Software\SAP\SAPGUI Front\SAP Frontend Server\Filetransfer -> PathDownload, you can read it thru class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES method GET_UPLOAD_DOWNLOAD_PATH and update it thru method REGISTRY_SET_VALUE. (Else there may be some parameter ID to force data, but I'm no longer sure)

How to set default User preferences in Analyzer for all users

How to set default User preferences in Analyzer for all users Hi, I would like to set some settings in Analyzer as default for all users. For example: 1. Display | Char 2. right mouse click on char | Chart Properties 3. Axes tab 4. "Format: Currency" i would like to change to "Format: Number". How to set default values to all users? Is this possible? Thanks, Grofaty

I'm pretty sure higher access superceedes, so you could set up a group with no actual access, just to get the preferences working, then their individual security will dictate what they can do. I haven't tested this fully, but I beleive this is how it will work. As far as setting the preferences, go into the admin console and right click on the group, then select Preferences. To apply the group preferences to a user, add the user to the group, then right click on the user, select preferences and from the upper left corner, use the drop down to select the active preference, in this case, it will be the group you created and added them to.

Unable to set default program for .pdf

CURRENT PROBLEM:
As show in print screen, when i attempt to set default program nth happens at all. The only way i can open any .pdf file now is by 1st opening adobe reader 9 and select the .pdf file manually
INITIAL STAGE OF PROBLEM:
Problem started after upgrading to windows 7 from vista. Windows 7 is able to recognise adobe reader 8 as a valid default program since it is in windows.old. Thus the default for .pdf is adobe reader 8 (it was installed in vista).
Subsequently, installing adobe reader 9 isof no use as it will be ignored and windows 7 will only continue to use adobe reader 8 as the default reader when i try to open a .pdf file, unless if i manually opened adobe reader 9 and selected a .pdf file manaually
However, I am unable to uninstall adobe reader 8 as the "program and feature" can only identify adobe reader 9 and does not think that adobe reader 8 exists.
ATTEMPTs TO SOLVE:
Thus, I removed windows.old by using the disk cleanup. However, I am still unable to set adobe reader 9 as the default reader. Instead, .pdf are no longer accessible/"open-able" unless I 1st opened adobe reader 9 and then selected a .pdf manaually.
I've attempted reinstalling and restarting comps etc, they dun seem to help. I suspect the OS is now only able to recognise adobe reader 8 from windows.old as a valid program directory due to some registry issues since it was initally set as the default when i 1st upgraded the OS. Now that adobe reader 8 is removed, there might be some corrupted registry somewhere that needs to be set right again?
Really need help with this. Thanks a million.

Thanks guys for showing interest in helping.
As you guys can see, there's no adobe reader when u expand. Also, I already browsed the reader just in case too. Thus expanding doesnt help. =(
Also, I cant seem to find the "file type" tab in folder options

How to set default locale in JDK1.3.0 to US?

Hi, everyone!
I found the default locale in JDK 1.3.0 is not set to US when I converted our JDK from 1.2 to 1.3.0. So I have to change code by passing Locale.US.
The output from below test code is:
default=��100.00
US=$100.00
import java.util.Locale;
import java.text.*;
public class TestCurrency
public static void main(String[] args)
int amount = 100;
//default
NumberFormat moneyWriter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
System.out.println ("default=" + moneyWriter.format(amount) );
//US
moneyWriter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.US);
System.out.println ("US=" + moneyWriter.format(amount) );
Can anyone tell me how to set default locale in JDK 1.3.0 to US?
Thanks!

You have to set something on your computer (outside Java) to tell it that you are in the US. You didn't say, but I'm going to guess that you are using Windows; if that's so, then try Regional Options in Control Panel.

How to set default view for preview?

Every time I open a PDF using Preview I have to set the view to 'thumbnails', then 'two pages up', then adjust the zoom. Complete waste of time.
Anyone know how to set defaults so that it opens in a predictable way?
thanks,

I customized my Toolbar to look like the following. Click the middle button that has the 1 circled. That tells Preview to remember to display pages at actual size (100%). Every file that I open now displays at 100%.

How to set default values in initialization event for select option

Abapers,
I have 3 GL account like 0024831231,0024831238,0024831245.
Please help me how to set default values in select-options ( s_hkont ) in INTIALIZATION event
Thanks

Select option is table <Structure> with fields, low, high, sign & option
you need to append the value into the select option, with appropriate value in low or
example:
S_HKONT-low = <value>
S_HKONT-SIGN = 'I'
S_hkont-OPTION = 'EQ'
append s_hkont.
Default value for select-option also can be added directly in select-option statement.
Regards,
Mahesh
