"kern" table ignored? -- technical note "OpenType tables used by Windows"

The technical note "OpenType tables used by Windows" http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/type/otfdk/ techdocs/OT_tables_in_Win_ATM.html says that the <kern> table (Kerning) is "Ignored". Is it true? Does the ATM driver really ignore "flat" kerning? Also, are there any significant updates for Windows 2000 and XP? (I think the ATM font driver built in Windows 2000 and XP is referred to as "5.0" -- true?) Adam

"Thomas Phinney" <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected].. > Hi, Adam, > > Yes, the kern table is ignored in favor of the GPOS kern feature, for OTF-flavored OpenType fonts. > > The GPOS kern feature can be used to represent pair-based "flat" kerning as well as class-based kerning. > Thomas, this does imply, however, that non-OT apps only get kerning within the Roman character set because of the virtual "mapping" done by ATM? I.e., it's not possible at all to provide OTF fonts with kerning for CE characters that would work in non-OT apps? Thanks, Adam

Creative Zen Micro Photo not tested for use with Windows so cant install it! Please help

Heya! Basically when installing the software for Microphoto it stops saying that as my device hasn't been tested for use with windows it cant install for fear of corrupting my laptop! Can anyone help me overcome this because i installed it aagges ago and it let me have the option of continuing the installating, but i had 2 uninstall it and upon reinstalling it it does not give me the option to continue. It just cancels the installation. Can someone please help me as this is driving me nuts!! Y is it that technology is continuosly mucking up grrrrr!
Lucy

Are you runnning Win XP SP2? If so, this is a standard warning about unsigned drivers, but it should still give you the option to "continue anyway" to complete the installation.
Also, make sure you have Windows Media Player 0, as this is needed for Windows XP (drivers) to recognize your MicroPhoto.

Create Table using DBMS_SQL package and size not exceeding 64K

I have a size contraint that my SQL size should not exceed 64K.
Now I would appriciate if some one could tell me how to create a table using
Dynamic sql along with usage of DBMS_SQL package.
Brief Scenario: Users at my site are not given permission to create table.
I need to write a procedure which the users could use to create a table .ALso my SQL size should not exceed 64K. Once this Procedure is created using DBMS_SQL package ,user should pass the table name to create a table.
Thanks/

"If a user doesn't have permission to create a table then how do you expect they will be able to do this"
Well, it depends on what you want to do. I could write a stored proc that creates a table in my schema and give some other user execute privilege on it. They would then be able to create a able in my schema without any explicitly granted create table privilege.
Similarly, assuming I have CREATE ANY TABLE granted directly to me, I could write a stroe proc that would create a table in another users schema. As long as they have quota on their default tablespace, they do not need CREATE TABLE privileges.
SQL> CREATE USER a IDENTIFIED BY a
2 DEFAULT TABLESPACE users TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp;
User created.
SQL> GRANT CREATE SESSION TO a;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> CREATE TABLE a.t (id NUMBER, descr VARCHAR2(10));
CREATE TABLE a.t (id NUMBER, descr VARCHAR2(10))
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01950: no privileges on tablespace 'USERS'So, give them quota on the tablespace and try again
SQL> ALTER USER a QUOTA UNLIMITED ON users;
User altered.
SQL> CREATE TABLE a.t (id NUMBER, descr VARCHAR2(10));
Table created.Now lets see if it really belongs to a:
SQL> connect a/a
Connected.
SQL> SELECT table_name FROM user_tables;
TABLE_NAME
T
SQL> INSERT INTO t VALUES (1, 'One');
1 row created.Yes, it definitely belongs to a. Just to show that ther is nothing up my sleeve:
SQL> create table t1 (id NUMBER, descr VARCHAR2(10));
create table t1 (id NUMBER, descr VARCHAR2(10))
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01031: insufficient privilegesI can almost, but not quite, see a rationale for the second case if you want to enforce some sort of naming or location standards but the whole thing seems odd to me.
Users cannot create tables, so lets give them a procedure to create tables?

V-41 tcode error :Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00

Hi All,
I am trying to create a BDC using the transaction V-41.
The first screen has fields:
ConditionType and Table, where I have to fill values ZPM1 and 800 respectively.
But as soon as I enter the tcode v-41 and say enter, the above mentioned fields are already having the values 'PR00' and ' 304'. Normally if you take an example fo t-code VA02, all fields are blank.
Then an error message is displayed:
Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00
This behaviour is not allowing me to use the BDC feature.
Please advise me on why this is happening. What are the possible solutions I can use to clear these values programmatically?
Can anything be done via customizing?
Regards,
Namita.

Dear ILHAN ,
Well the problem you are facing is having the following solution:
Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00
Message no. VK024
Diagnosis
The selected condition type does not fit in the condition table, that is the basis for the condition record. Alternatively the selected condition type is not included in the condition types that were selected on the selection screen or that are defined in the variant of the standard selection report.
Procedure
Úse F4 help to choose a valid condition type.
If this does not give you the required condition type, check in Customizing for condition types and the related access sequences.
In the condition maintenance also check Customizing for the selection report (pricing report), that you have selected in the navigation tree, using the standard condition table as a reference.
I hope this helps.
It has worked for me.
I gave it a try and what I am getting using the transaction V-41 is create Price condition (PR00) : Fast Entry.
Please award points if you find it useful.
Regards,
Rakesh

TABLE SIZE NOT DECREASING AFTER DELETION. BLOCKS NOT BEING RE-USED

Hi ,
Problem:
Table size before deletion: 40GB
Total rows before deletion: over 200000
Rows deleted=190000 rows
Table size after deletion is more (as new data was inserted meanwhile).
Purpose of table:
This table is a sort of transaction table.
Whenever an SR is raised by CSR, data gets inserted into this table and is removed when the status is cleared.
So there is constant insertion and purging will happen on this table.
We are using ASSM and tablespace is LOCAL.
This Table has a LONG column also.
Is this problem because of LONG column ?
So here there are 2 problems.
1) INSERTs are not using the space created by DELETE.
2) New INSERTs are taking much more space then expected ?
Let me have your suggestion
Thanks,

I think when you do DELETE it removes the data but
it's not releasing any used space and it's still
marked as used space. I think reorganizing would help
to compress and pack all block and relase any unused
space in blocks. Why do you think that? Deleting data will create space that can be reused by subsequent insert/ update operations. It is not going to release space back to the tablespace to make it available for inserts into other tables in the tablespace, but that's not generally an issue unless you are permanently decreasing the size of a table, which is pretty rare.
Would you also please explain about different about
LOB and LONG ? or point me to any link which explain
baout it.From the Oracle Concepts manual's section on the LONG data type
"Note:
Do not create tables with LONG columns. Use LOB columns (CLOB, NCLOB) instead. LONG columns are supported only for backward compatibility.
Oracle also recommends that you convert existing LONG columns to LOB columns. LOB columns are subject to far fewer restrictions than LONG columns. Further, LOB functionality is enhanced in every release, whereas LONG functionality has been static for several releases."
LONG was a very badly implemented solution to storing large amounts of data. LOBs are a much, much better designed solution-- you should always be using LOBs.

Find customers IN, NOT IN from two transaction tables using DAX

I have two identical fact (sales) tables in Power Pivot. I need to classify customers in 3 categories.
Existing in both tables
Existing exclusively in table 1
Existing exclusively in table 2
What approach do I choose? UNION both the tables in model or keep them as separate tables? Also, what code is to be written to classify the customers in these 3 categories? I need to do Power View reporting on the categories - Distinct Customers, SalesAmt,
Sales Volume etc.
Thanks, Ashish Singh

Try these sollutions:
1.You can append both tables using Power Query ad-in. Even if a list of customers change in any of your tables you will not have to manually correct them in model. Refreshing Power Query table allow to have always updated data in model. Also if both tables
are differ but have a common column as "customers" that's enough to get appendable list of customers. Power Query allows to get distinct values without duplicates. Created table can be linked as a table to your Powerpivot model. No measures are nessesary.
You should receive a simple table with distinct customers names. Lets call it "List of all custumers"
To receive exclucive lists create relations between Table1 and Table2 using "List of all custumers". Now you can use all you need in one pivot table.
2. You can do the same without Power Querry but your data will not be autmaticaly refresh. Appendable table with customers list can be created manualy. This case also not require any formulas or measures.
Of course you can also try Greg's solution

Cannot join tables used in the workbook. Join "" not found in the EUL. Atte

Trying to migrate workbooks from one instance to other using discoverer 10.1.2.48.18 i am getting the following error
Unable to open the worksheet requested.
- OracleBI Discoverer was unable to find the worksheet that was requested.
- BIB-10310 An unknown exception occurred.
- Cannot join tables used in the workbook. Join "" not found in the EUL. Attempt to open workbook failed.
but its fine one instance , and in prod i am getting above weird error.
does anybody know how to rectify this.

Note:267476.1 - for those who can't get into metalink but still need to know the answer
Subject: Discoverer Workbook Fails With 'Cannot join tables.Item dependency "" not found in EUL' After EUL Migration, Importing Or Cloning
Doc ID: Note:267476.1 Type: PROBLEM
Last Revision Date: 28-APR-2005 Status: PUBLISHED
The information in this document applies to:
Oracle Discoverer - Version: 4.1 to 10.1
This problem can occur on any platform.
Symptoms
Opening a workbook migrated from one instance to another results in the following errors:
* Unable to load EUL item ...
* Cannot join tables. Item dependency "" not found in EUL.
* Illegal operation... DIS4USR OR DIS5USR caused an invalid page fault in module....
If using the workbook dump utility, you may notice:
* Found in EUL by id *** Name has changed to .. where the new name is really the wrong column
It seems that items are matched by internal item identifiers (IDs) and not by developer keys and names.
Changes
Migrating from one environment to another. For example, you may have performed a database export / import of the EUL schema from DEV to TEST
Cause
The timestamp is the same for both EULs, what can be confirmed by the following SQL statement:
* Discoverer 4:
SQL> select ver_eul_timestamp from eul4_versions;
* Discoverer 9.0.2 , 9.0.4, 10.1 the script is:
SQL> select ver_eul_timestamp from eul5_versions;
If the result of the sql output is the same in both EULs, it means that timestamp of both EULs are the same. Discoverer assumes that the EUL are exactly the same (e.g. this can happedn when one of them is created with export/import of the other EUL schema using database export/import utilities) and this is the reason it tries to match items by identifiers and not by developer keys or names.
Solution
Change the column ver_eul_timestamp in the eul4_versions (4.1) or eul5_versions(9.0.2 - 10.1)tables to be something different in the destination EUL. The format of this column is like year:month:day:seconds:milliseconds
Example:
* Discoverer 4.1:
sql> update EUL4_VERSIONS set VER_EUL_TIMESTAMP =TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS');
sql> commit;
* Discoverer 9.0.2:
SQL> update EUL5_VERSIONS set VER_EUL_TIMESTAMP = TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS');
sql> commit;
* Discoverer 9.0.4 -10.1:
Run the script: EUL5_id.sql as the eulowner ID
o For 9.0.4 -- This is found on a PC with the Discoverer Administrator installed in drive:\Oracle Home\discoverer\sql
o For 10.1.0 -- This is found on a PC with the Discoverer Administrator installed in drive:\Oracle Home\discoverer\util

Showing description and not key when using check tables in Web UI

Hi,
I have added an field using EEWB to Opportunity Item, and connected it to check table CRMC_CUSTGRP1. It shows fine, and we can select from the check table using the web ui.
However it shows the key column and not description column from the table. Is there a way to make the web ui show description instead of the key?

Hi,
I debugged GET_V_S_STRUCT, and it tries calling
ME->VIEW_DESCRIPTOR->GET_FIELD_GEN_VALUEHELP_DL
ME-VIEW_DESCRIPTOR is an instance of class CL_BSP_DLC_VIEW_DESCRIPTION, which does not contain the method GET_FIELD_GEN_VALUEHELP_DL, and obviously it throws an CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_METHOD exception, which leaves the value table empty.
Do you have any idea why, or have I missed something fundamental?

use table from library directly or create a table using subform...

Hi Sweta,
Create the interface attributes of type string and xtring type.
Create node in the context of type graphics. bind the interface fields to the graphic node context element properties -
Graphic content, field of xzstring type and mimetype to be string/any char data type of suitable length.
In layout drag and drop the image field and bind it to the graphic element.
In yoour report programme-
do the code as berlow to pass the graphic data -
CALL METHOD cl_ssf_xsf_utilities=>get_bds_graphic_as_bmp
EXPORTING
p_object = 'GRAPHICS'
p_name = '<mime type graphic name>'
p_id = 'BMAP'
p_btype = 'BCOL' "BMON if monochrome
RECEIVING
p_bmp = w_binary
EXCEPTIONS
not_found = 1
internal_error = 2
OTHERS = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
in the call <form function module>
pass the inerface values for
xstring (graphic field) to be w_binary (import parameter of the previous method)
and mime type to be 'image/bmp'.
This would work.
Hope fully you may be able to see a tutorial on this soon ;).

Abort inserting a record in a table using a trigger

Hi there,
Is there any way to abort inserting a record in a table using a trigger?
For full details, I have the following table ("myTable"):
BSC INTEGER NOT NULL,
BTS VARCHAR2(20) NOT NULL,
INFO1 INTEGER,
INFO2 INTEGER
myTable_PK = PRIMARY KEY (BSC,BTS)
I have also a stored procedure that imports a data from text file and inserts them to the specified table (using UTL_FILE package). The stored procedure works great.
But the thing that in the text file itselft it might be (due to third-parity report generation bug) that the primary key will be violated or the BSC/BTS field has null value. In such case I just want to ignore the insertion statement using a trigger.
Thanks

Ok Jens, could you tell me what exception could I use?
Below a protion of my StoredProcedure.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE update_myTable() IS
FHANDLE UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
BSC INTEGER;
BTS VARCHAR2(20);
INFO1 INTEGER;
INFO2 INTEGER;
BEGIN
FHANDLE := UTL_FILE.FOPEN('LOG_FILE_DIR',FILENAME,'R',4000);
LOOP
UTL_FILE.GET_LINE(FHANDLE,STR);
-- Process the line STR and generates BSC, BTS, INFO1, and INFO2 values
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'INSERT INTO myTable VALUES(:1,:2,:3,:4)' USING BSC,BTS,INFO1,INFO2;
END LOOP;
EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN UTL_FILE.FCLOSE(FHANDLE);
END UPDATE_R205BTS;
Remember that I am already using an exception with NO_DATA_FOUND to indicate the end of file then closing it.
Thanks for your reply

Impact Analysis: How to trace which objects and tables used in a report?

Impact Analysis: How to trace which Webi objects and tables used in a report?
Currently, our company have been using BO Webi as our ad-hoc and reporting tool for over a year now. Past several months, we've been pushing our power users to develop their own report, and started to notice that we loss track off which data (tables, columns, ... , BO objects) being used where and by whom. The BI team now spend more time tracing through reports manually, instead of designing Universe.
After consulted with our local SAP technical sale, they said the only solution is to buy BO's ETL (Data Integration) and
Metadata Management tool, which price starting from $300K per CPU. I suppose that is NOT the right solution; however, we have not found one yet. Some executives believe Cognos (now by IBM) would provide a better BI solution as we scale.
If anyone know, please provide (1) Impact Analysis method: How to trace which Webi objects and tables used in a report? and (2) Does Cognos provide better impact analysis method without a heavy spending?
Thank you very much,

EdPC-SCB,
have you tried enabling auditing?
- Yes, audit log only shows user's activities which isn't useful for us. Please let us know any audit log that might be helpful .
For most of the servers listed in the CMC there is an "Audit" tab. I'd say if you have the disk space in your database for Auditor available, then if in doubt turn it on (at least for a while) to see if it exposes what you are seeking to find out --that'd be the quickest way. The documentation (xir2_bip_auditor_en.pdf) doesn't offer much in helping you to see a correlation between ticking on an Audit option in a Server and how it will populate in the Auditor DB -- most of us just hunt and peck until we get what we want. Once you have the good stuff in each of the Servers ticked on you'll be able to track down which report recieves which object. To help youself out initially, you should run every report that you can find so Auditor will get seeded.
thanks,
John

DML on nested tables using SQL

Hello. Can anyone tell me what's wrong??
SQL> create type mytype as table of varchar2(20);
Type created
real: 78
SQL> declare
2 c mytype;
3 begin
4 select table_name bulk collect into c from user_tables;
5 delete from table(cast(c as mytype));
6 end;
7 /
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06550: line 5, column 13:
PL/SQL: ORA-00903: invalid table name
ORA-06550: line 5, column 1:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
real: 31

we cannot use variables in regular SQL. It has to be
dynamic, viz
begin
for r in ( select table_name from user_tables )
loop
execute immediate ' delete from '||r.table_name;
d loop;
end;
/Cheers, APCyes, but user_tables was only a example. I want to load some data into nested table using BULK COLLECT and then perform some operation on this pl/sql table.
For example:
SELECT col BULK COLLECT INTO c FROM a_table;
SELECT * BULK COLLECT INTO d FROM TABLE(CAST (c AS sql_type));
--After that c and d contain the same data
--but for example
UPDATE TABLE(CAST(c AS sql_type)) Set c.col=...;
generates invalid table name.
Why SELECT INTO works, and UPDATE doesn't (all of this was in PL/SQL context, not SQL).
