Incrementing Number in Header

Is there a way to add an incrementing number (like a PO number) in the header section of the form? The number would be automatically generated when a form is requested and people filling out the form would not be able to edit the number?

How to add increment number to file name properly

Hi, all:
I have a simple question. As shown in the attached code, I need to add an increment number to file name and save the file. The problem is, if you run the code and put something like ".dat" in the extension name, you will see a blank space between the number and the dot in the file name. What should I do to eliminate the blank space? I can't specify the format of the file name since the file name would vary from case to case.
Thanks a lot for any suggestion and correction in advance.

Hi,
Please take a look to the attached VI. I hope that I understood what you really want.
I've replaced the Vi: Format into string with Number to Decimal String plus a Concatenate String.
Now, this is working for me, I don't get a space anymore. If something is wrong, please let me know.

Paul

ITunes appends incrementing number to file name

Hi,
I noticed that with some of my mp3 files iTunes 6 keeps on creating copies of them, appends an incrementing number to the file name and adds the new file to my iTunes library, which means I end up with multiple copies of the same song in my library.
So if I have got a file called "03 All I Need.mp3" iTunes will create
03 All I Need 1.mp3
03 All I Need 2.mp3
03 All I Need 3.mp3
etc...
Perhaps it could be related to the fact that I have got two computers accessing the same mp3 folder via a network?
I really can't explain to myself why iTunes would be doing this, but it is terribly annoying, as I end up with the same song over and over again in my iTunes library.
Does anybody know how I can prevent iTunes from doing that?
Thanks heaps!

Incrementing Number on Adobe Designer 7.0 Form

Hello -
I am wanting to create a PO form where an incrementing number gets applied to a field each time a user opens the form. The user is creating a purchase order, and instead of using preprinted-paper forms he/she wants to use an Adobe form. I have created the entire form in Adobe Designer 7.0, however, I cannot seem to get an incrementing number to be calulated/populated into a field. The form then gets mailed to others, however, when they open the form the number should not change because it is already populated. It should only populate (and increment the counter) when the field is blank (i.e. a new purchase order is being created).
I got something like this to work in Acrobat Pro 6.0 using a "global tracking number"....
Please help.
Thank you.
Rick

I'm not familiar with the "global tracking number" functionality you are referring to (I couldn't find any such beast in Acrobat 7 Pro), but it would seem to me that what you need is some sort of database connectivity. The PO number field would be the index on a PO table. If the customer is intent on keeping the PO numbers unique, would they not be tracking these is some sort of database repository?

Revision number for Header material in Production order.

I have maintained Revision number in material mster for Header material in Production order and also for components.
1)Revision number for Header material in Production order is not appearing in AFKO table against production order.
2)Revision number for components in Production order is not appearing in RESB table against reservation.
Any settings for that please guide.

Hi,
Revision number generation is using ECM only possible. Are you using the ECM with revision levels. Check this.

How to incrementally number selected rows?

I want to number the left-hand column of rows in my table. I realise I can just go from cell to cell and number them incrementally but I hoped there was an automatic way to achieve the same result.
I can select the column of rows beginning with the one where I want the numbering to begin, but I can't find any way to incrementally number these selected rows. No help in the Pages help file either. I seem to remember that in Microsoft word I just had to select the column and then click on a 'Numbering' button on the menu.
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Number the first two rows in your table, select both cells & click the little circle at the lower right of the selection box. Now drag down as many rows as you want to fill. This picture is from a Numbers table, but the fill feature works the same in a Pages table. You can see that you can create increments other than one.

Report with Delivery number and header text as output

Hello all,
I need to create a "quick and dirty" report that which will give me every delivery number, and the corresponding header text, in the month of July for given shipping points. I am having trouble figuring out how to get the header text for the deliveries. I have searched and searched but the solutions given just don't make sense to me.
Regards,
Davis

Hi,
You need to use the function module READ_TEXT to read delivery header text.
Please go to transaction SE75 and use VBBK as the OBJECT to find the specific ID which is required.

Title with incremental number -- how to approach this when editing in Premiere CS4

Ok, I'm not sure if this is possible, but here is what I would like to accomplish:
I've recorded a Tour in Google Earth Pro - you know the camera 'flying' from placemark to placemark. I've measured the amount of kilometers between placemarks. What I would like to do is to display a title/number in the left top of the screen in Premiere which displays the number of KMs traveled, incrementing when the camera flies. I need dynamic text that increments e.g. from 0 to 2000 KMs from frame 1 to 500. I'm not sure which approach is best to accomplish this, and if it can be accomplished inside of Adobe Premiere. Thanks for the support. Best regards,

You may have to look at After Effects for something like this.

Auto increment number in BO

Hello All,
In my CAF code, I need to persist one variable and increment in every time the AS is called. To elaborate further, I have a business object (entity service) which stores the customer records. The customer number has to be auto incremented. The response of this service is the customer number which is auto generated.
Please let me know how to go about it simplistically. Do we have the concept of static variables, the same of instance of which can be accessed by various service calls?
Thanking you all in anticipation.
Regards,
Keerti

Hi Keerthi,
You can use the concept of static.
If i had understood correctly, you need to have an operation in Application Service(AS) to create a Customer BO and each time a customer BO is formed it shopuld be given a customer ny=umber in an auto increment fashion.
For this you can have the following code in your create method of the AS
try {
               StatObj ob = this.getstatObjService().create();
               i++;
               ob.setCustNumber(i);
               this.getstatObjService().update(ob);
          } catch (CAFCreateException e) {
          } catch (CAFUpdateException cue) {
          } catch (CAFPessimisticLockException cple) {
          } catch (CAFOptimisticLockException cole) {
StatObj is my BO and CustNumber is an int in the BO.
Hope it solves your problem.
Hi keerthi,
Is the problem solved.

Auto increment number field

Hello,
I would like to have a number field to be auto increment. Ho can I do that in Oracle must I use some code for it or can I make the field auto increment by itself.
Thanks

ThanksIt's a long standing gripe of mine. You must use code, and the appropriate solution is a sequence and a trigger, eg
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >create table t(
2      id number not null primary key
3 ,   c1 char(100));
Table created.
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >create sequence seq_t;
Sequence created
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >create or replace trigger bir_t
2 before insert on t
3 for each row
4 begin
5 select seq_t.nextval into :new.id from dual;
6 end;
7 /
Trigger created.
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >insert into t(c1) values ('row 1');
1 row created.
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >commit;
Commit complete.
SASH_CLIENT @ DB10G >select * from t;
        ID C1
         1 row 1I'd much prefer
create table t (
   id number primary key default seq_t.nextval
, c1 char(100));

Section Number in Header

I want to generate the section number in the header. The body section heading uses a numbered list to automatically generate the section number.
According to this thread, it can't be done? But that was a couple of years ago and not sure if things have changed?
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2232981
The other option may be a plugin, though I have never used one. I don't mind spending the cash if it works. Anyone else use this?
http://in-tools.com/learning/forum/power-headers/
I am bit surprised ID does not have a solution for this. It would seem common, but maybe that is just me since I am surrounded by technical books all day.

Thanks. I didn't want to go down the plugin path unless I had to.
That being said, powerheaders does accomplish what I need (based on a trial run). So that is very acceptable solution for me! Saves a lot of time and significantly reduces chance of error.

Is there easy way to create auto increment number?

Hello SharePoint Fam,
Is there a easy solution to have a auto increment column that just creates new number on each new item.
Wanting something like:
14-0001
14-0002
14-0003
14-0004
14-0005
Thanks n advance

If you need a simple auto increment column then you can use "ID" field which is already present in Sharepoint.
It will increment in this fashion: 1,2,3,4...........
or
you can take field as "Calculated" and use formula (="14-" & [ID]) without parentheses.
it will increment in this fashion 14-1, 14-2, 14-3............
or
try this link...may be you will find something helpful here...

Incremental number assigned to adobe form field upon opening form

I have a form posted on the web that clients fill out and submit when they hire a new employee.
Is there a way to have a number populate in a field incrementally that does not repeat. For instance if the form is opened by user 1, it gets Form 1, then later user 2 gets Form 2. The number would not repeat.
. Any thought?

Form fields can't directly-communicate with a webserver except during the submit process, so you can't use the same counter tools that websites use. There are some options to allow PDF forms to pull data from remote servers (using Flash) when the document opens, but again it will require some code on the server to send the correct information, and creates problems if the person filling in the form is offline at the time (or denies the network connection dialog). Using a timestamp field solves the problem of your users being offline, but it's only going to give you a pseudo-unique code (there's a tiny chance two forms could get the same value if they were opened at the same time) and of course the value you get is huge - not the sort of thing you'd want as an employee number.
Setting up something in PHP or ASP to run the type of XFDF/FDF workflow I show in the video isn't difficult, and the code will run on any web host which supports those languages. You don't need a special type of server.
