Merge content from a file that gets updated separately?

Is there a simple way in RoboHelp to have a placeholder in a topic where content from a separate source file (e.g. HTML or Word) gets displayed such that if the source file changes, the content inserted in the topic gets updated when the project is regenerated?
In other words, I have an HTML page in my project with some text and then a reference of some sort that grabs the contents of another file and pulls that in without a manual import?

Yes, I'm using RoboHelp 8 and the explanation on your site did what I needed. Can the frame size (in red below) be dynamic to fit the content?

Getting error "Cannot create a BACPAC from a file that does not contain exported data." from SqlManagementClient.Dac.ImportAsync

We're trying to import a dacpac to azure via the new SqlManagementClient DacOperations ImportAsync api I get an exception with the error: "Cannot create a BACPAC from a file that does not contain exported data."
This same dacpac imports fine using an alternate but less friendly API from sql server's tooling. We'd like to use the new management SDK instead for various reasons.

Hi Kyle A Wilt,
I am trying to involve someone more familiar with this topic for a further look at this issue. Sometime delay might be expected from the job transferring. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same computer, against two different Apple IDs. When I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message?

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same Windows 8 computer, and when I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message. Is it possible to have two different Apple IDs on the same computer?

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

Hi,
you can try to use the:
ConsumerTreeListPreview
layout for KM navigation ivew (or customize to your own).
This layout shows a folder tree on the left, a document list on the right. When you click on a document from the list it shows the contents of the file on the bottom of the iview.
Hope this helps,

The Creative Cloud application becomes inoperable continually on both my Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems. I'm tired of re installing the application after deleting the OOBE file to get updates and syn settings between computers for Photoshop. Is this

The Creative Cloud application becomes inoperable continually on both my Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems. I'm tired of re installing the application after deleting the OOBE file to get updates and syn settings between computers for Photoshop. Is this an endemic problem with others? I'm using Google Chrome as my browser. Is this an issue with the problem?

Similar problem just happened to me with the Creative Cloud Update 1.7.1.418—slightly different so I thought I'd share. I have multiple Adobe Creative Cloud programs installed on my computer, all working just fine. I updated the Cloud App to the latest version and then it shows me that I have only one program installed! All my previously installed programs (Photoshop and the like) still work but show as "install" instead of "Up to date". Initially I thought I'd have to re-install the Cloud app or recreate the OPM data base but then I noticed that some of the Cloud app preferences (Apps > Settings > App Language) were different to what I had set previously. I use English (International) language, the update had reverted the app back to English (North American). I flicked back to my previous language and bam, all my apps now show as being installed correctly.

How do i "show package contents" on .webtemplate files that have arrow

Hi,
Quick question:
How do i "show package contents" on .webtemplate files that have a small arrow attached on the file icon. Its a template a downloaded from 11mystics.com (free). When i right click the icon there is no "show package contents" available on the drop down menu....
Thanx!

When you bring up the contextual menu for the icon, choose "Show Original". This will take you to where the original file is and you should be able to "Show Package Contents" on it.

self explanitory, but here it is again
i have content from an account that is on my ipod, but won't transfer to my new account. what do i do to keep my content?

I suspect that you are saying that you can't download/install the latest version of iTunes.
All I can say is try removing and reinstalling the Apple software using the following:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
If you have further problems with installing Itunes I suggest you post in the iTunes forum since you have an iTunes problem, not an iPod problem. Also report the wording of any error messages. What they say is importent on resolving them.

How do I move content from one file to another ?

Hi,
I have two separate DVD Studio Pro files that I created a while back (single-sided DVD).
Now I want to put them both on a dual layer DVD. However, I can't figure out for the life of me how to copy content between files. I don't want to "recreate" one of the DVDs from scratch.
How do I move the menus, tracks, stories, etc from one DVD Studio Pro file to another ?
Thanks,
Damon

You do not need to move the media into the new project assuming all the media is available and on the same hard drive. Usually I keep all DVD SP projects and media on an external drive so it is easy-ish to do. Of course if you copy the assets into the folder for a project it makes thingss easier to move around to other drives. In other words I will create a Poject folder called "MYPROJECT" and in there I will placefolders "MYPROJECTM2Vs", "MYPROJECTAC3S", "MYPROJECTGRAPHICS" etc so if I have to move projects to other computers easier to re-link. Takes up a bit more room if you use the same asset in more than one project but with the costs of Drives so low right now it is worth the lkess hassle to me...
What is the error you are getting?

Parsing Content From A Site That Requires Authentication

Ive been scanning websites using the Java HTML parser from htmlparser.sourceforge.net to gather useful data into a more easily used format, in this case it is stored in a mySQL database.
The problem that has stumped me for the past few days is how to get around the login authenication page required to access content from the website www.racingpost.com . I am a registered user but am having difficulty logging in via Java and managing the cookies to bypass the login page HTML I keep getting instead of the race data.
I am unsure when and where I should be passing cookies around. Also logging in using POST is confusing me.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

How to read data from a file that is already open by another program

Hey..
I have made IV, where I'm trying to read data from a log file, that is being updated by another program while my IV runs.
To be clear, this program writes data continuously to this file and I want to read from the file in LV at the same time.
The problem is that LV reports an error when I'm trying to read the log file, even if I use to "read only" mode.
I believe that the program that is producing the file, have some kind of lock on the file. I have tryed to copy the file and then reading from the copied file, but LV throws already an error when I try to copy the file.
Has anyone tryed this, and found a solution.?
Additional info: The program that produces the file is STM Studio
Best Regards
Allan

Hi Alha,
when that file is locked by the other program you can't do anything about that - apart from quitting that other program. Probably this isn't an option to you…
Best regards,
