Loop through Exchange mailboxes

I would like to find all calendar events in my organization
that have a specific subject line. If I have my un and pw's stored
in my db, can I do a query loop over the cfexchangeconnection tag
using my un and pw from a query and find all subject lines and then
find the specific line that I am looking for? Thanks.

Hi HoltDan,
For the error you got, agree with Mike, please try to copy and paste then feedback.
In addition, another similar script for your reference:
$users = Get-Mailbox | Select -ExpandProperty Alias
Foreach ($user in $users){
Add-MailboxFolderPermission $user":\Calendar" -user User1 -accessrights Reviewer}

  • Exchange mailboxes, corporate AD, forest trust, arrays, Can you look this over?

    This is my first script, it took a while to figure some things out, but it is working. I wanted to know if it is overkill, or if there is something that sticks out that would be an easier way of accomplishing something with this script.
    Background info:
    Company was bought out, forest trust set up between corp network and ours (years ago). So what we wanted was to compare exchange mailboxes with linked mailboxes array, to be compared to corporate AD array with user accounts that are disabled. a list is created
    in another script which shows linked mailboxes and disabled corp AD accounts, helpdesk looks these through to make sure there are no exceptions. Exceptions are entered into PS cmdline, those are pulled out of the array. Then the left objects in the array are
    PST backed up to network share, and then mailboxes removed. Admin trust across corp allows Exchange admin to search through Corp AD through search-AdAccount cmdlet. The script is run from a VM with exchange server tools installed and running 32-bit os of Windows
    7 and 32-bit Office (Because that's how great... Exchange 2007 is for exporting mailboxes to PST). 
    Not sure of this, though it works: 
    <#Clear variables so they are not retaining any old values#>
    Get-Variable -Exclude PWD,*Preference | Remove-Variable -EA 0
    Wanted to clear variables before running script, data was being held over each run before adding this in
    Here is the code "xxxxx" used in lieu of server names:
    <#Import in modules, if statement for PSSnapin so that it doesn't throw an error if it is already loaded.#>
    Import-Module ActiveDirectory
    if ( (Get-PSSnapin -Name Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.Admin -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) -eq $null )
        add-pssnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.Admin
    <#Clear variables so they are not retaining any old values#>

  • How to loop through the "On My Mac" folders in mail?

    Hi there - i am new to applescript, but am slowly working out how to use it.
    I am stumped on how to write a rule that will move a message to a folder identified by a tag in a message (I am using MailTags).
    I have script that will take the first tag and move the message to a mail folder in a fixed location (e.g. Archive/<tag name>) however I wanted to make it more generic by looping over all of my mail folders and finding one that matched the tag name.
    However I am stumped on how to loop over all of my mail folder names - I have tried:
    repeat with aFolder in (every mailbox of (mailbox for "ON MY MAC"))
    and
    repeat with aFolder in every mailbox of inbox
    etc.
    but none of these seem to work.
    Is there some magic syntax to do this, so that I can do:
    if (name of aFolder = msgTag) then
    move oneMessage to mailbox (name of aFolder)
    end if
    Tim

    You don't necessarily need to assign a variable to the entire list in order to loop through them (unless you really want to) - for example:
    tell application "Mail" to repeat with aFolder in (get mailboxes)
            -- do stuff with aFolder
    end repeat

  • How do I setup shared Exchange mailbox with Mail (Yosemite)?

    Hello,
    we use Office 365 hosting for our mails. Setting up my default Exchange account is no problem at all, just provide e-Mail address, password and let auto discover finish the rest through System Preferences -> Internet accounts.
    But I also need to setup two shared Exchange mailboxes. If I setup the e-mail address of the shared mailbox. I tried to set it up as follows:
    System Preferences -> Internet Accounts -> Add Exchange Account
    Name: Shared Mailbox
    Email Address: [email protected]
    Password <own AD password>
    As expected: Internet Accounts couldn't log in to the Exchange server "autodiscover-s.outlook.com". Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct. Then, enter your user name and click Continue.
    <Continue>
    Account Settings
    Account Type: Exchange
    Description: Shared Mailbox
    User Name: <own smtp mail address>
    Password: <own AD password>
    Server Address: outlook.office365.com
    <Continue>
    Account Summary
    Account type: Exchange
    Full name: Shared Mailbox
    Email address: [email protected]
    Server address: outlook.office365.com
    <Continue>
    Select the apps to use with "[email protected]": Mail
    => There was a problem setting up the Mail account: an unknown error occurred.
    05/01/15 13:02:10,706 com.apple.internetaccounts[313]: Already have account E2E3FF00-2B0E-4F75-ADD9-FB********** configured for user: <[email protected]> host: outlook.office365.com
    So to add an additional account to access a different mailbox on the Exchange sever with the same credentials as the personal mailbox is apparently no option any more. On the other hand I haven't found any option to add according folders from other mail address inboxes to my personal account in any of the Preferences from Mail (Yosemite, 8.1) or any menu item, that would allow me to add the inboxes of other shared Exchange server mail boxes I have access to.
    The same is true for Mail (iOS 8.1.2), thus I have not found a solution to configure the shared mailboxes on my iOS devices either.
    Trying to setup an "Add Other Account" using IMAP did not succeed either. It always uses my personal mailbox, because I only have my personal user to access the shared mailbox and downloads my personal inbox instead of the one of the shared mailbox.
    Do I really have to fall back to Outlook 2011 Mac to be able to use this feature and miss out on all the hands off features from Yosemite?

    i too use office 365 shared mailboxes  and it took me a long time to work out to add them to my ios mail app , this worked for me :
    start setting up a normal exchange account , put your shared email address in the username and you main email account password.
    it will fail to do the auto-discover thing , but when you click on continue it eil allow you to manually enter the details :
    Name : < whatever>
    email : <your shared email a/c address  i.e [email protected] >
    description : <whatever>
    incoming mail
    Host name : outlook.office365.com
    username : <your main email address / shared i.e  [email protected]/myshared >
    password : < your main account password >
    outgoing mail server:
    SMTP : smtp.office365.com
    username : <your mail email i.e. [email protected] >
    password < your main account password >
    use ssl  <YES>
    authentication : Password
    server port 587
    this worked fine on every IOS device i own, but somehow it doesn't work with my Yosemite mail   , so if anybody can help with Yosemite mail it would be much appreciated.
    Cheers;

  • Plz help, delete exchange mailbox?

    Hi, i have a n85, i set up sync, mail part wasnt working so i tried exchange. now i found out i can add a IMAP mailbox instead, (which I would prefer to use). I added that fine. Now i cant remove the exchange mailbox. Ive been through the options and I cant find anything to get rid of it, its driving me mad   if there is no way to remove it, is there a way to hard reset my mobile to factory settings? please hope someone can help, thanks in advance.
    Ross
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    i officially hate nokia. the exchange thing keeps connecting me to T-mobile internet ( i think its my company push email which, if it is, i didnt want that). so its charging me money and i cant stop it. i cant delete the exchange profile. 
    I cant do a hard factory reset using the code, it says error \ failed etc.
    i tried reset through the options but it said i had active connections open. i removed the simcard and did reset from options, but all my calender and email are still there!!! its driving me mad,  i might return my phone and get a different brand. (im not on a contact, i actually paid the full price for this) for such a good phone why make menu options so gash?
    i dont expect any replys, as i actually dont beleive there is a resolution. just a case of badly programmed software.

  • Exchange Mailbox - Deletion

    Hi all,
    Did anyone work on the deletion of exchange mailbox through IDM? I guess there is no supported attribute in IDM to accomplish this directly. I think this has to be managed through a Resource Action.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Swatz.

    Exchange will eventually purge the mailbox if you delete the AD attributes already mentioned. This is good enough for most people. (Including my company). If you actually want to make sure that you
    delete the mailbox at time of user deletion, you would have to call a script using an after action. The script would have to be .net or something similar that can handle CDOEX.
    Do a web search for CDOEX and you'll find some examples of interacting with Exchange,

  • Can we send bulk email through exchange server 2010

    can we send bulk email through exchange server 2010

    You can do this however not sure I would recommend that since if people complain they are getting spammed it could effect your production servers domain/IP, i.e. it could get black listed.   Personally I always recommend using a different system for
    email blast  to protect my production IP addresses and also to keep the load off of exchange as well as email marketing systems have built in capabilities for reporting, opt in/out capabilities etc.
    All of that said perhaps you can tell us more about what exactly it is you want to do and how often?

  • Nested Loops...looping through one month of data at a time year by year

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to create an insert statement that loops through a table that has 10 years of data (2001 to 2010) month by month to minimize impact on server and commits more frequently to avoid filling up the redo logs and rollback tablespaces. The table is large, has about 40 millions records per year. Lets say the structure of the table is the following:
    Customer_ID number(9),
    Order_Item_1 number(6),
    Order_Item_2 number(6),
    Order_Item_3 number(6),
    Order_date date
    The table is in flat format but I want to normalize it so that it looks like the following:
    Customer_ID Order_Seq Order_Item Order_date
    999999999 1 555555 01-jan-2001
    999999999 2 666666 01-jan-2001
    999999999 3 444444 01-jan-2001
    888888888 1 555555 03-jan-2001
    888888888 2 666666 03-jan-2001
    But because I want to loop through month by month....I need to set it up so that it loops through month by month, year by year (Using the Order Date Field) and Order_item by Order_item. Something like:
    so my insert statements would be something like if I hardcoded instead of put the insert statement into a loop:
    insert into orders_normalized
    (Customer_id,Order_seq,Order_item,Order_date) select customer_id,1,Order_item,Order_date where Order_item_1 is not null and to_char(order_date,'yyyy') = '2001' and to_char(order_date,'mm')='01';
    insert into orders_normalized
    (Customer_id,Order_seq,Order_item,Order_date) select customer_id,2,Order_item,Order_date where Order_item_2 is not null and to_char(order_date,'yyyy') = '2001' and to_char(order_date,'mm')='01';
    insert into orders_normalized
    (Customer_id,Order_seq,Order_item,Order_date) select customer_id,3,Order_item,Order_date where Order_item_3 is not null and to_char(order_date,'yyyy') = '2001' and to_char(order_date,'mm')='01';
    insert into orders_normalized
    (Customer_id,Order_seq,Order_item,Order_date) select customer_id,1,Order_item,Order_date where Order_item_1 is not null and to_char(order_date,'yyyy') = '2001' and to_char(order_date,'mm')='02';
    insert into orders_normalized
    (Customer_id,Order_seq,Order_item,Order_date) select customer_id,2,Order_item,Order_date where Order_item_2 is not null and to_char(order_date,'yyyy') = '2001' and to_char(order_date,'mm')='02';
    insert into orders_normalized
    (Customer_id,Order_seq,Order_item,Order_date) select customer_id,3,Order_item,Order_date where Order_item_3 is not null and to_char(order_date,'yyyy') = '2001' and to_char(order_date,'mm')='03';
    Hope this makes sense.
    Thanks

    Does the sequence of items in an order really matter? In other words, do we really need to preserve that an item was in position 2 versus position 1? I bet that the sequence or position of each item in an order is not meaningful. They were probably numbered 1, 2, and 3 just to make them uniquely named columns so there would be three slots to hold up to 3 items in the denormalized table.
    You only have about 400 million rows to insert, so it could feasibly be done in a single transaction (depending on your database environment).
    You can always do a create table as select (CTAS) to help with undo / redo issues and get better performance. You could run it in parallel, and spit it out to a new table partitioned by month. Single DDL statement running in parallel making your new table--sounds good to me.
    How about something like this:
    CREATE TABLE ORDERS_NORMALIZED
    (CUSTOMER_ID, ORDER_ITEM, ORDER_DATE)
    PARTITION BY RANGE(ORDER_DATE)
    PARTITION p200901 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('200902','YYYYMM')),
    PARTITION p200902 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('200903','YYYYMM')),
    PARTITION p201012 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('201101','YYYYMM'))
    as SELECT CUSTOMER_ID, ORDER_ITEM_1, ORDER_DATE
       FROM OTHER_TABLE
       WHERE ORDER_ITEM_1 IS NOT NULL
       UNION ALL
       SELECT CUSTOMER_ID, ORDER_ITEM_2, ORDER_DATE
       FROM OTHER_TABLE
       WHERE ORDER_ITEM_2 IS NOT NULL
       UNION ALL
       SELECT CUSTOMER_ID, ORDER_ITEM_3, ORDER_DATE
       FROM OTHER_TABLE
       WHERE ORDER_ITEM_3 IS NOT NULL.....................
    Out of curiosity, why not normalize it further? You could have used two tables instead of one.
    One (ORDER) with:
    ORDER_ID
    CUSTOMER_ID
    DATE
    Order_id would be a new surrogate key / primary key.
    Another table (ORDER_ITEM) with:
    ORDER_ID
    ORDER_ITEM
    It would be a table that links ORDERS to ITEMS. You get the idea.

  • Text is not being displayed in sync on a label when looping through a list -- how to fix?

    I have a list of states (50 states).  I loop through this list (in a winform app -- VS2012) and want to display the current state ID that is being processed in the loop in the text property of a label.  I precede the label.Text = StateID line with
    Application.DoEvents() but I am also (in Debug mode) writing the same text to the console.  The console displays correctly, but there appears to be a lag in the label.Text property
    List<string> StateList = new List<string> { "al", "ak", "az","ar","ca","co","ct","de","fl","ga",...};
    foreach (string stateID in StateList)
        Application.DoEvents();
        lblStateID.Text = "State is " + stateID;  //--there is a lag here
    I vaguely recollect something about a NotifyPropertyChanged event.  I know this is common in WPF, but is there something similar in winform?  Or is there a way to make the desired text to be displayed in the label.Text property in synchronization
    with the loop?

    Thank you.  This is way simpler than implementing the INotifyPropertyChanged Interface.  Although, here is an article on the INotifyPropertyChanged Interface and event

  • Automator - Loop through a text file and process data through a 3rd party software

    Just stumbled on Automator the other day (I am a mac n00b) and would like to automate the processing of a text file, line-by-line, using a third party tool.  I would like Automator to loop through the text file one line at a time, copy the string and keep as a variable.  Next, place the variable data (copied string) into the text field of the 3rd party software for processing.  Once the processing is complete, I would like Automator to fetch the next line/string for processing.  I see items like "copy from clipboard" and  "variables" within the menu but I am not finding much documentation on how to utilizle this tool.  Just hear how potentially powerful it is. 
    The 3rd party software is not a brand name, just something made for me to process text.  I may have to use mouse clicks or tabs + [return] to navigate with Automator.  A term I heard on Bn Walldie's itunes video series was "scriptable software" for which I don't think this 3rd party app would be. 
    Kind regards,

    Good news and bad news...
    The good news is that it should be entirely possible to automate your workflow.
    The bad news is that it will be a nightmare to implement via Automator, if it's even possible.
    Automator is, essentially a pretty interface on top of AppleScript/Apple Events, and with the pretty interface comes a certain stranglehold on features. Knowing how to boil rice might make you a cook, but understanding flavor profiles and ingredient combinations can make you a chef, and it's the same with AppleScript and Automator. Automator's good at getting you from points A to B but if there are any bumps in the road (e.g. the application you're using isn't scriptable) then it falls apart.
    What I'm getting at is that your requirements are pretty simple to implement in AppleScript because you can get 'under the hood' and do exactly what you want, as opposed to Automator's restricted interface.
    The tricky part is that if no one else can see this app it's going to be hard to tell you what to do.
    I can give you the basics on reading a file and iterating through the lines of text in it, and I can show you how to 'type' text in any given application, but it may be up to you to put the pieces together.
    Here's one way of reading a file and working through each line of text:
    -- ask the user for a file:
    set theFile to (choose file)
    -- read the file contents:
    set theFileContents to (read file theFile)
    -- break out the lines/paragraphs of text:
    set theLines to paragraphs of theFileContents
    -- now iterate through those lines, one by one:
    repeat with eachLine in theLines
      -- code to perform for eachLine goes here
    end repeat
    Once you have a line of text (eachLine in the above example) you can 'type' that into another application via something like:
    tell application "AppName" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
              tell process "AppName"
      keystroke eachLine
              end tell
    end tell
    Here the AppleScript is activating the application and using System Events to emulate typing the contents of the eachLine variable into the process. Put this inside your repeat loop and you're almost there.

    I created my data block through the wizard, but then manually added some fields. I have them listed in the order I expect them to be navigated, which is the order I expect them to appear on the screen.
    When I am looping through the data block, I was assuming that next_item would go to the next navigable item, and it doesn't.
    For example, I have items received_today, worked_today, total_waiting, total_for_today, total_calls, total_priority.
    When the code loops through the data block, it actually loops in this order: received_today, worked_today, total_callbacks, total_priority, total_waiting, total_for_today.
    I even set the next navigation item property for each item, but that didn't help.
    My questions:
    1. Is there a way to control what order the data block loops through items?
    2. Why does this line get_item_property(get_block_property(block_name, FIRST_ITEM), x_pos); sometimes return null? (in my "proof of concept" form it returns a value, but the form I am modifying does not)
    Following is my code:
    PROCEDURE set_x_y_positions IS
         current_x_position pls_integer;
         current_y_position pls_integer;
      block_name varchar2(30) := 'BLOCK22';
      CurrentItem varchar2(30);
    BEGIN
      go_block(block_name);
      current_x_position := get_item_property(get_block_property(block_name, FIRST_ITEM), x_pos);
      current_y_position := get_item_property(get_block_property(block_name, FIRST_ITEM), y_pos);
          go_block(block_name);
      loop
           BEGIN
                if :system.cursor_item <> (block_name || '.' || get_block_property(block_name, FIRST_ITEM))
                     and get_item_property(:system.current_item, displayed) = 'TRUE' then            
                  SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(:system.current_item, x_pos, current_x_position + 38);
                  current_x_position := get_item_property(:system.current_item, x_pos);
                end if;
                if :system.cursor_item = 'BLOCK22.INTERNATIONAL' THEN--block_name || '.' || get_block_property(block_name, LAST_ITEM) then
                          exit;
                else
                     next_item;
                end if;
           END;
      end loop;
    END;I am using Forms 6i version 6.0.8.26.0
    Thank you!
    Katia

    I do have an exit, and yes it does run well.
         if :system.cursor_item = 'ATS_MON_REPORTING_QUEUES_VW.INTERNATIONAL' THEN--block_name || '.' || get_block_property(block_name, LAST_ITEM) then
                          exit;
                else
                     next_item;
                end if;That redundant go_block is there because I had some output going to a dummy field in another block, so I had to make sure it was navigating back to the block. But yes, in this code example, that go_block is redundant.
    Thank you, adding the
    current_x_position := get_item_property(block_name||'.'|| get_block_property(block_name, FIRST_ITEM), x_pos);
      current_y_position := get_item_property(block_name||'.'|| get_block_property(block_name, FIRST_ITEM), y_pos); worked perfectly.

  • How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

    How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

    I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
    What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
    Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
    Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

  • How do I loop through tables, not columns in a table?

    Sorry if this is a long one. My problem is actually quite simple. I am trying to write either an ad hoc PL/SQL block or a stored procedure to loop 18 times (thru 18 tables) and perform a SQL query on those tables, returning 18 resultsets. I would like the results to show up on the screen (or in a spool file, whatever).
    So far I have tried 3 different approaches, none of which have worked.
    1. I tried to assign the select query to a variable (qry) and use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE qry. This forced me thru a variety of errors to declare variables and assign the result to them--EXECUTE IMMEDIATE qry into nm0, nm1, nm2...
    The problem with that was the resultset returned more than the variable was built for as there might be no rows returned, or it might be a thousand rows of data. So I tried changing the variables to VARRAYS, but it gave me a type mismatch as the underlying columns were NUMBER and VARCHAR2.
    DECLARE
         ctr number;
         TYPE NUMLIST IS VARRAY (1000) OF NUMBER;
         TYPE VARLIST IS VARRAY (1000) OF VARCHAR2(15);
         nm0 NUMLIST NOT NULL DEFAULT 1;
         nm1 VARLIST;
         nm2 NUMLIST NOT NULL DEFAULT 1;
         nm3 VARLIST;
         nm17 NUMLIST NOT NULL DEFAULT 1;
         qry VARCHAR2(2000) := 'klx_uln_p000_cells';
    BEGIN
    FOR ctr IN 1..17 LOOP
         IF ctr &lt; 10 THEN
              qry := 'SELECT
              A.DIM_0_INDEX,
              S0.SYM_NAME,
              A.DIM_1_INDEX,
              S1.SYM_NAME,
              A.DIM_2_INDEX,
              S2.SYM_NAME,
              A.DIM_3_INDEX,
              S3.SYM_NAME,
              A.NUMERIC_VALUE,
              B.NUMERIC_VALUE
              FROM
              KHALIX.klx_uln_p00'||ctr||'_cells A,
              KHALIX.klx_ucn_p00'||ctr||'_cells B,
              KHALIX.KLX_MASTER_SYMBOL S0,
              KHALIX.KLX_MASTER_SYMBOL S1,
              KHALIX.KLX_MASTER_SYMBOL S7
              WHERE
              A.DIM_0_INDEX=B.DIM_0_INDEX AND
              A.DIM_1_INDEX=B.DIM_1_INDEX AND...
              A.DIM_7_INDEX=S7.SYM_INDEX';
         ELSE
              qry := 'SELECT
              A.DIM_0_INDEX...
              A.DIM_7_INDEX=S7.SYM_INDEX';
         END IF;
         BEGIN
         dbms_output.put_line('SELECT FOR KLX_ULN_P00'||ctr||'_CELLS');
         dbms_output.put_line(nm16);
         dbms_output.put_line(nm17);
         EXECUTE IMMEDIATE qry into nm0,nm1,nm2,nm3,nm4,nm5,nm6,nm7,nm8,nm9,nm10,nm11,nm12,nm13,nm14,nm15,nm16,nm17;
    --     dbms_output.put_line(qry);
         dbms_output.put_line(nm16);
         dbms_output.put_line(nm17);
         EXCEPTION
              WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
                   dbms_output.put_line('No data found for Query '||ctr);
         END;
    END LOOP;
    EXCEPTION
         WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
              dbms_output.put_line('No data found for Query '||ctr);
    END;
    2. So then I used REF CURSOR to create a stored procedure and return the values. That allowed me to run my query AND tokenize the tablenames with a counter so that it would loop through the different tables! However, I still could not get it to display the results without going to SQL Plus and typing 'print c;'.
    3. So, finally I tried to create a looping wrapper around the ref cursor to have some variable (ctr) increment so my query would get performed on table0_cells through table17_cells. This, too, did not work.
    If I manually go to SQL Plus and type:
    variable ctr number
    begin
    :ctr := 1;
    end;
    exec dupe_find(1,:c);
    it will execute for the first table (klx_uln_p001_cells) and I can then type 'print c' to see what was returned. But when I try putting this within a wrapper PL/SQL block with a Loop to make ctr go from 0 - 17 (to loop through table_names klx_uln_p000_cells to klx_uln_p017_cells), it does not work.
    Help! It should be very simple to loop through tables, shouldn't it? I just want a script that will loop through tables, perform a query on each table and display the results. For some reason, I can only find documentation examples on looping through columns that are all in the same table.
    Dave

    Here's a working example using your first strategy ...
    create table t1 (id number);
    create table t2 (id number);
    insert into t1 values (100);
    insert into t1 values (101);
    insert into t2 values (200);
    insert into t2 values (201);
    declare
    v_table_name user_tables.table_name%type;
    type ttab_id is table of t1.id%type index by binary_integer;
    tab_id ttab_id;
    begin
    for i in 1 .. 2 loop
    v_table_name := 't' || i;
    execute immediate 'select id from ' || v_table_name
    bulk collect into tab_id;
    dbms_output.put_line('query from ' || v_table_name);
    for j in 1 .. tab_id.count loop
    dbms_output.put_line(tab_id(j));
    end loop;
    end loop;
    end;
    There are many other ways to do this (especially if you need to do more than just print out the data).

  • Looping through an array to get the index for each measure in a combo box

    Hi folks,
    I am working on a web application that has two combo boxes, one for year (called yearcombo) and for measures (called myURL) for that selected year, and also two radiobuttons (in radioBtnGroup). I have two years and a bunch of measure for each year. I  have a map tool tip that when you mouse over the county you see a measure for that specific year. However I have a bunch of measures for each year and I want to be able to loop through the measures (which are in an array collection inside a combobox) so my "if" expression can find every selectedIndex and bring me the tool tip for that selected measure for that selected radio button. Right now I would have to create if statements for each measure (each selectedIndex inside the myURL combobox)and each radiobutton (inside the radioBtnGroup) instead of creating a if expression to get a map tip tool for each measure. I know I would have to create a loop to search for these indexes and enter that in the if expression and also change the graphic.attributes to reflect the right measure or index selected. Do you API for Flex wizards  can give me any tips on how to code this according to my code below ? Any  help is greatly appreciated! (the print scree is attached)
    Below is the code snippet:
    if (yearcombo.selectedItem.year == "2007" && myURL.selectedIndex == 0 && radioBtnGroup.selectedValue == 0)
    fLayer.definitionExpression = "DATA_YEAR_TXT like '2007'"
    var graphic:Graphic = Graphic(event.currentTarget);
    graphic.symbol = mouseOverSymbol;
    var htmlText:String = graphic.attributes.htmlText;
    var textArea:TextArea = new TextArea();
    try{
    textArea.htmlText = myURL.selectedItem.label + graphic.attributes.ForDirIndOut.toString()
    myMap.infoWindow.content=textArea
    myMap.infoWindow.label = graphic.attributes.NAME;
    myMap.infoWindow.closeButtonVisible = false;
    myMap.infoWindow.show(myMap.toMapFromStage(event.stageX, event.stageY));}
    catch(error:Error) {
    trace("Caught Error: "+error);
    And below is the combo boxes with the arrays
    <mx:FormItem label="Year        :"  >
    <mx:ComboBox   id="yearcombo" selectedIndex="0" labelField="label" width="100%" change="changeEvt(event)"  >

  • Looping through inbox items on timer event is really slow...?

    Hi,
    I have an issue with a email sync event that I am running.  Essentially, I am given a date (the received date of the last email synced) via another process and then need to return all the emails in the user's inbox the where receivedDate > this given
    date.
    I have a timer object than triggers my sync event every 15 mins.  I also have a button that allows the user to manually activate the sync - this basically changes the timer to 3 secs and so it fires the sync event.
    If the sync event is fired manually as per above, it loops through everything quite quickly (~12,000 emails in 30 secs) and I can stored the sender/recipient and received time data I require from these in a list of objects, which I sync later on in a background
    process.  During this loop the main UI freezes up, which is fine since I show a progress bar so the user knows how long they need to wait, and a large sync like this should only occur on their first sync theoretically.  If the first sync event is
    fired without the manual input - so still called from the same timer event, but just on the normal 15 min event, not the shortened 3 sec one - then it runs differently.  The sync takes a lot lot longer, and the UI doesn't freeze up.
    I presume this might be because it is fired slightly differently and does not hog up the main thread, but rather shares it with normal Outlook operations.  Maybe the operations are being run on a background thread and then keep having to jump into the
    main thread to access the email items...?  Either way, I'm not quite sure how this is happening since the only difference is the user pressing a button that changes the timer.interval.  The code that is run is the same, and the button press doesn't
    trigger the actual sync itself.
    Is there a way I can force this first sync to always run solely in the main thread, it can freeze up Outlook and show the progress bar until it is done?  Ideally any subsequent syncs would then be run with no progress bar and no freezing up of the UI.
    Many thanks,
    Tom

    Hello Tom,

    You shouldn't use another threads when dealing with the Outlook object model. Office applications use the single threaded apartment (STA) model and don't support multithreading. All calls made from another threads are marshalled by Outlook to the main
    thread. However, you can use a low-level code (Extended MAPI) to access the data from secondary threads. For example, you can use Redemption which is based on Extended MAPI.

    Instead of looping over all items in the folder I'd recommend using the
    Find/FindNext
    or
    Restrict methods of the Items class. You can read more about them in the following articles:
    How To: Use Find and FindNext methods to retrieve Outlook mail items from a folder (C#, VB.NET)
    How To: Use Restrict method to retrieve Outlook mail items from a folder
    You can use the System.Windows.Forms.Timer class which uses the main thread for invoking the Tick event. The .NET
    Framework Class Library provides three different timer classes: System.Windows.Forms.Timer, System.Timers.Timer, and System.Threading.Timer. Each of these classes has been designed and optimized for use in different situations. The Comparing
    the Timer Classes in the .NET Framework Class Library article examines the three timer classes and helps you gain an understanding of how and when each class should be used.
    Also you may find the
    AdvancedSearch method of the Application class helpful. Pay special attention to the fact that the search is performed in another thread. You don’t need to run another thread manually since the
    AdvancedSearch method runs it automatically in the background. See
    Advanced search in Outlook programmatically: C#, VB.NET for more information.
