Just discovered I need a reference tool for research reports with pages...

I love the great tutorial that tells you to insert a function that does not come standard with pages. One would really think a bibliography tool or simple endnote feature would be pretty basic for a word processor.
So.....EndNote is the featured program on the tutorial....though I don't believe it is made by Apple (?).
Q: Are there other options for a program that will do research report-level citations in Pages? Or do I have to now spend 2x what I paid for the entire iWorks suite for this simple luxury?

You can tell Apple here:

(Though it's 7 years now they have not added that feature)

Background processing for ABAP report with selection screen

Hi ABAP Gurus,
I m facing a strange problem in scheduling a background job for my report with a selection screen. I have a variant for the report.
I scheduled a job, but it seems to be not doing anything though all the system resources are available. The job overview shows "Acive" for the job. The job is neither stopping anything, it is just sitting there In SM50, the status shows "On Hold".
Any ideas/comments on the problem and how this can be overcome?
Qucik replies and solutions will be highly appreciated as this is a crucial part for a go-live project.
Thanks in advance.
Shivani.

Yes. My report has a selection-screen which requires user input. But I have created a variant for the report and trying to run it in background using this variant. But facing this problem.
Strange thing is, instead of the usual SM36/SM37 option where we schedule and monitor background jobs, this option does not work for my report.
But I tried through SE38, and from my selection screen I selected "Schedule background job" and "run immediately" option, and this works. Though I still use SM37 to monitor this background job.
I have never faced such a situation before.
Any hints/tips why this happens and how this can be overcome in the future?
Thanks in advance.
Shivani.

Is pages 11 for iOS compatible with pages 09 on my Mac?

Is pages 11 for iOS compatible with pages 09 on my Mac?

There is no such thing as Pages 11 although the new versions on both the Mac & iOS could be referred to as '13.
Pages '09 cannot open files from the new versions. If you have ugraded to Mavericks you should see an update for Pages in the Mac App Store. Post back if you need help doing that.

Why do we need IDE or tools for java card programming?

Hi,
I am a newbie to java card, using java card kit tools themself, we can test and burn the code into card right?
then why do we need IDE for java card, please correct me , if i am wrong,
Thanks in advance,
Sri.

Dear Sri,
We have compiler, linker etc for every language starting of from C or C++ or Java. JDK has all the tools necessary to develop and run a Java program. Similarly Java Card Development Kit has all the tools for developing and deploying a Java Card applet. But what an IDE does is too integrate all these tools and make it easier for the JavaCard programmer to develop his applets. Just like Eclipse is used for Java applet development.And not everytime the code is burned to the card. Its only during masking code is burned to the card, i.e if u can call it burning. Masking makes an applet permanent on the card.

RAD tools for JSP apps with GUI editor?

Hi,
Could anybody recommend a RAD tool for JSP-based development with an integrated GUI page editor and HTML, JSP and JavaBeans/J2EE Java code generation?
Should be usable by (trained) business analysts, so tools heavily based on UML are not exactly what I'm looking for.
I need to develop a small "white label"-style generic web application for a few business processes, then let business users/analysts modify and deploy it.
Thanks,

Tool for Formating Report

Hi Experts,
In our project we are using two mode for presentation one is broadcasting and second is formating of reports with proper format needed by client .
now for broadcasting of reports we are using SAP portal.
and for Formating we are using a third party tool known as "Cognos 8 IBM .
Now is there any way in SAP BI where I dont have to use third party tool for formating and generating reports? i.e. formating and broadcasting will be done in SAP BI only.
Please help

Hi,
Thanks for sujjesting...but the problem with SAP BI VC KIT is we have to design it from the ground level....for say it will take the data from respirotary connect it with J2EE server and give me the output...though the process is really good and can combine two different buisness senario but my issue is Cognos wat I am using for report format is already a establish tool of the process .....and in the process two ways we are generating report one in in BW and one is in Cognos ,BW report is for Enterprise Portal which all the internal client's are using but Cognos report are being used by end user where company logo and lots of details are getting generated In PDF format. I cannot replace existing BW tool , but wanted to use BI where I can upgrade BW and remove Cognos use....is there any way for that?
and for BI WEB reporting which is much semiliar to BW web reporting ......

What is suitable method or Tool for Generate Reports or Inovice?

Which Tool or Class is suitable for Generate Reports or Inovice?
i hope to make some reports and invoice for my project,
but i don't know what is suitable class to generate and show report and invoice.
can you give me some advice?
thanks!

My report consists of one main repeating frame containing about 15 (detail) repeating frames. The main frame starts a new page each time the deposit (master record) changes and resets the physical page number at the top of the page. In the property palate, I have Source set to my deposit number and Maximum Records per Page set to 1 and this results in the start next deposit on a new page.
I can't find any 'BREAK' command that would result in the action I need - and there seems to be nothing in the SRW_package or conditional formatting that might help.
What I was hoping was that there would be a command somewhere that I have missed, that would cause a new report to be written each time the deposit (or master record) changes, rather than one huge report.
Thanks for the suggestion

SAP BI tools for FI reports

Hello everybody,
I am SAP FICO consultant but new to SAP BI. I have a requirement that uses BI tools to create FI reports and I need to give functional specs. Can anyone give me general guideline to do that? More specifically, I have following questions:
1. I Names of SAP BI tools that are used for SAP FI reporting.
2. Can anyone also send me material / links to the readings that could help understand creating functional specs for such reports?
3. It would also tremendously help me if anyone can tell me the difference between functional specs for ABAP reports Vs. BI reports. I have worked on ABAP functional specs but not on BI reports.
Thank you,
Sonia

1. you'll need to extract data into BW, so you'll need to set up a Data Model for FI; then depending on which kind of reports, you'll need BEx Query Designer, BEx Analyzer, Report Designer, Web Application Designer or any of the BOBJ tools (or external party tools)
2. /
3. I personally would be fine with ABAP specs... basically what one needs to know is which data you wish to see in what format and how that data can be found in the source system... if calculations are necessary, those have to be delivered as well
Important is to determine the granularity of data

Please tell me you can use pan/zoom tool for photo slideshow with photos not cropped to screen?

I'm new to Mac and Premiere Elements (former PC/Sony Vegas Movie user), and am trying to do a Ken Burns type photo slideshow wherein my photos are left in their normal cropped state. Right now it seems all photos get cropped to fill the screen size (i.e. 16:9). I saw where you could uncheck the scale photo size to media (or something to that effect) under the general setting in preferences, but using the pan/zool tool still shows photos cropped to fill screen. I realize conflicting aspect ratio will result in black bars top/bottom or left/right of frame, and that's ok/what I want. I'm hoping this is doable? Thanks, Jim

The primary question that I have is what is the end product...DVD-VIDEO Standard on DVD disc, DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc or other?
Let us assume for now DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc. The next question that falls into line is the one relating to what you describe as an assortment of photos going into this project...what are the pixel dimensions (what range of...) and aspect ratio. For aspect ratio, are we talking 4:3 or 16:9. How many of these photos are landscape oriented or how many portrait oriented.
In generalities at this point, I would ask you to look at:
a. bringing your photos appropriately sized into a Premiere Elements project with an appropriate project preset.
b. leaving Edit Menu/Preferences/General with its Default Scale to Frame Size with a check mark.
c. in the workspace, scaling the photos to just fill the space in the Edit Mode Monitor
d. then one by one pan and zoom a photo with the Pan and Zoom Tool.
If you use this Tool, you should get good results. One consideration is that the process results in the Timeline photo having a much larger duration AFTER than BEFORE. If you see any pros in using this tool for your purposes, then you might want to explore the technique that I described for applying a pan and zoom effect from this Tool to more than one photo at a time.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-pan-zoom-tool-more-than-one-photo.html
You also might want to explore fxEffects/Presets for horizontal and vertical pans or zoom. The catch in the presets is that you can apply a pan OR zoom, not a pan AND zoom to each photo.
Keyframing of Scale (for Zoom) and Position (for Pan) should be explored under Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded/Scale and Position properties.
With more details from you, we could go step by step in any of the above.
We will be watching for your progress.
Thanks.

I need an audio driver for Yoga 13 with Windows 7 Pro 64 bits English

Hi all,
I downgraded my Yoga 13 from Windows 8 to Windows 7 pro 64 bits, and ever since then I have a problem with my microphone.
Skype finds the microphone and can use it, calls are all working fine, but any other program using audio does not work with the microphone.
After troubleshooting, I concluded that I need to update the driver but I cannot find it. Anything that I find on the Lenovo support pages does not install (event the one found on this page: http://support.lenovo.com/fr/fr/downloads/ds002860).
After looking at this post: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Idea-Windows-based-Tablets-and/I-need-an-Internet-driver-for-Yoga-13-wit.... I figured I would to be provided with the link by someone from Lenovo support.
Here's the hardware ID of the soundcard: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_506E&SUBSYS_17AAA001&REV_1000. In Windows it is recognized as High Definition Audio (in the device manager).
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hello,
From looking at the Yoga 13 Hardware Maintenance Manual and downloading the driver package from the Realtek Wireless LAN & Bluetooth Driver for Microsoft Windows 8 (64-bit) - IdeaPad Yoga 13 page and extracting (but not running) it to look at the contents, it appears the Yoga 13 uses a wireless LAN card based on Realtek RTL8732 chipset.
I would suggest that you try downloading the drivers, expanding, but not installing them on to a USB flash drive or SD card, then plugging that into the Yoga 13, running the Device Manager (filename: DEVMGMT.MSC), clicking on the appropriate entry for the wireless network adapter, selecting update, and then choosing the Browse my computer for driver software option, pointing that to the location of the unpacked drivers. Perhaps Device Manager will find the correct drivers to install that way.

Database - Best tool for making report

Hi everybody,
We're developping an application with HTML-DB. Our users want to extract some reports.Those users are used to work MS-Excel to make reports.
My question is what is the best tool for producing this kind of reports ?
Is it with HTML DB (report), Discoverer or Oracle Reports ?
Thank you. Bye.

The answer, as with all of ORacle's products, is "It depends".
Oracle Discoverer, once set up, is very easy to use as a 'developer' and as a 'report recipient' across the web. Looks and feels like Excel. Personally my first choice for a medium user to power user level from a 'create reports' perspective. Prepare to have a Disco Administrator, but that is usually a 'power user' rather than an IT guru.
Oracle Reports is much more powerful, useful for high-end reporting and control of reporting such as multi-bursting to individual printers, caching, PDF and CSS generation - but it requires a person who is interested in becoming competent at reports. It's also a bit of a bear to set up.
A lot of reports can be accomplished using SQLPlus or iSQLPlus. Too many people are not aware of the power of the environment and end up going for high-end tools when SQLPlus will do.
HTMLDB is OK and designed to be simple. I haven't used it much, so I'm the wrong person to comment.

Switching Data Source for a report with stored procedure

Post Author: ysbn
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I've created a report and deployed it on a Crystal Server. The report is based on a certain stored procedure which also exists on other DB machines in my environment (Oracle machines). When I try to switch my report object to work with other machines (not the one originally used when the report was designed) the activation of the report fails. The error I see in the preview window is:
Error in File <my rpt file name>: Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 6550 ]
When I try the same thing with a report which is based on a view and not a stored procedure the switching of Data Source works perfectly.
Is there a problem switching between data sources from the server when the report is based on stored procedure? Are there any configurations I need to do in order to support this scenario?
Thanks!

Hi everyone~
i am now facing the same problem
i am using CR2008 and Visual Studio 2008 c# to write a window program
because we have 2 db environment (one is production , the other one is development) so i have set a prarameter to switch db connection in c# code.
the database is Oracle, and the the report will connect to Oracle procedure (which it is stored in package) this procedure will return reference cursor, so the report will loop up this cursor to generate report.
at first time, it work fine when i open the report in CR2008 designer and point to dev database (ie datasource point to oracle procedure) . but when i want to deploy this win application to client and point to prod database, it show (vendor error 6550)
i found that i cannot change the datasource during runtime in c# code...
am i miss something in code? here attached a part of this code...
private void setDBLogonForReport(ConnectionInfo info, ReportDocument doc)
            Tables myTables = doc.Database.Tables;
            foreach (Table myTable in myTables)
                TableLogOnInfo logOnInfo = myTable.LogOnInfo;
                logOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = info;
                logOnInfo.TableName = myTable.Name;
                myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(logOnInfo);
                //myTable.Location = info.UserID + "." + "pkg_crystal_report." + myTable.Name;
                //someone suggest i have to set the 'Location' for change the datasource, but i am not sure how to construct a
                //string for point to oracle prcedure
i will check it freq ... hope any expert can give me some advice ~
thank you very much!!!
