Need conversion from UCS2 to utf-8

1. I have data in MS SQL server table in arabic in UCS2 format , need to transferr these records to ORACLE 8i table ( of same table structure) in utf-8 format. Friends , is there any tool available to do this.
2. I have above one lakh records of data in oracle 8i in cp-1252 format having arabic words. at prasent i am using JSP , so that i display all records on it and then transferr to local oracle database ( which converts it in to UTF-8) .this is tedious process as fetching data takes lot of time.
These data are basically displayed in our JSP pages for e-govt application.
I need to know , whether i can use any API which does this translation.
Or is there any tool which does translation from cp-1252 to NCR(in &#XXXX; format) which makes my task easy for displaying it on browser.
Thanx in advance. with Regards

still waiting for the solution , any help guys.??

Fail to Convert between UTF8 and UCS2: fail UTF Conversion

I'm using the JReport software, a product which generates java reports based on a jdbc datasource.
during installation the JReport installation program located Microsoft java VM installed on my PC and I accepted this option to be working JVM for JReport.
This worked very well. I have installed jdbc driver for Oracle 8.1.5 that worked fine as well on the design time (I have connected to Oracle, I have seen my tables and other information on my DB).
But when I switched the run-time view (when real data is going to load) then the following exception message appeared :
"Fail to Convert between UTF8 and UCS2: fail UTF Conversion" .
if there is anybody who understood my problem any kind of help will be appreceated
It will be helpfull to receive any suggestions made to this matter.
Anything relative help will be welcome.
thanks in advance.

I had the same problem using Oracle 9i. The problem lied within the Oracle JDBC driver itself! --;
If you're using JDBC driver from Oracle 9i, stop using it!
You should download JDBC driver of Oracle 10g from Oracle site and use that driver instead.
After I changed the driver, I now have no problem of getting Korean characters from the database.
Hope this would solve your problem too.

Usually only Open Invoices and Unapplied Receipts are migrated from Old system to New Instance.
Post Migration Reconciliation shall be tough in that scenario. Reconsider/Rediscuss with Client.
Migration can be done using APIs or Custom Scripts using Standard Interfaces.

Getting ÿþ as saved conversations from Lync in Outlook in Office 2013

Hi,
I've been trying to get to the bottom of this and have found similar posts, but no one seems to have an answer.
When I IM someone using Lync 2013, they get a pop up notification but instead of the message they see ÿþ<. Once they open the chat window, they can see my typed text. Occasionally, certain people can't see the first line of my chat, but as
long as they keep the chat window open, they can see everything new I type.
All my conversations that are saved in outlook show ÿþ< for the text and are unreadable. I've disabled the saving of conversations because they have become worthless.
I believe it has to do with BOM but have not been able to find a way to fix this.
If I copy a conversation from the chat window and paste it into Microsoft Word it shows ÿþ<, but if I paste it into notepad the conversation appears.
(I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
I've tried changing the preferred encoding for outgoing messages: to Unicode (UTF-8) in Outlook, but this had no effect and I can't find a similar option in Lync 2013.
(I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
I enabled logging for Lync and the event IDs that come up are 1, 11 and 12, to which I cannot find any information for at the moment.
Any help and or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,
Did the issue happen only for you or for multiple users?
Please try to delete Lync User Profile and information on Registry, then repair Office 2013.
The path of Lync User Profile: %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync
The path for information on Registry: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
Then test the issue again.

Conversion from u0091Stringu0092 to type u0091Dateu0092

Hi,
I am fetching a date from DeliveryDate TextBox from Sales Order. I enter as 10/03/2007. As I need to fetch this value and store it in Production Order DueDate records through SDK Code.When I fetch this value from code,I get as 20070310. When I try to update my Production Order DueDate it gives me an Error Msgbox Conversion from string 20070310 to type Date is not valid. Here is my code to update production order.
Dim DelDt As String
DelDt = MyForm.Items.Item("12").Specific.value
Here DelDt shows 20070310
Now I have created an object of ProductionOrder and try to add Records,
sboProdOrder.DueDate = DelDt
On the above line it gives me that messagebox.
Can any one help me as to how can I convert this code in a working one or how to convert the string to date in VB.Net
Thanks a lot
Murtaza

Hi Murtuza,
Retrieving the value from a date-field through the value always returns the date as a string in the format yyyymmdd.
the field DueDate is a field of type DateTime.Date. to enter the date in this field, you must convert the string to a date.
The following line converts the date-string to a date.
new DateTime.Date(left(DelDt,4), mid(DelDt,5,2), right(DelDt,2))

Date/time conversion from UTC to CET

Hello,
Jjust a little question to our SAP BI community!
Is there a BI function/ggod way that converts a (datetime) string DDMMYYYYHH:MM:SS in UTC time zone into a string DDMMYYYYHH:MM:SS in CET timezone ?
We receive this string in input in a flat file and need it to convert from UTC to CET.
Or do you know any way to convert a date/time from IUTC to CET, eveen using an ABAP function?
Thanks a lot,
Matthieu

Hi,

Conversion ISO-8859-7- UTF-8 and UTF-8 - ISO-8859-7

Hi, I written this function to do a Charset conversion
from ISO-8859-7 to UTF-8 and vice versa
void ChangeChersetEncoding(String EncodingType)
String GrammarText;
try
GrammarText = Editor.getText();
b = GrammarText.getBytes(LastEncoding);
String strTemp = new String(b,EncodingType);
Editor.setText(strTemp);
LastEncoding = EncodingType;
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "Error: " + e.getMessage
() , "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
The steps followed are:
1)I initialize Editor (that is a JEditorPane) with a InputStreamReader, that use by default "CP1252"(window - latin1) charset encoding.
2)When I call the function the first time with EncodingType = "ISO-8859-7" and LastEncoding = "CP1252"(window - latin1), Editor shows greek character as I aspected.
3)When I call the function the second time with EncodingType = "UTF-8" and LastEncoding = "ISO-8859-7", Editor shows unknown character ('�') as I aspected.
4)The problem is when I call the function the third time with EncodingType = "ISO-8859-7" and LastEncoding = "UTF-8" Editor don't show the original greek text, as I didn't aspect.
Thank you for all.

b = GrammarText.getBytes(LastEncoding);
String strTemp = new String(b,EncodingType);Here you take a String (which is in Unicode) and convert it to bytes, using "LastEncoding". Next you take those bytes and convert them back to a String, assuming that they were encoded using "EncodingType". But they weren't, so at best this will do nothing and at worst it will produce garbage. It certainly won't do anything useful.
As I said all Java strings are in Unicode. If you want to convert something from one encoding to another encoding, you can only convert an array of bytes to a String using the first encoding, then convert that back to bytes using the second encoding. Converting a String to a String just makes no sense.

I am reading about this conversion from an AOL username to a new Apple ID. Is this legitimate and will I lose access to purchases?

is this conversion from an AOL username to a new Apple ID legit? Will I lose access to purchases?

Hi Kellyezvous,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
The conversion from AOL Username to Apple ID is legit, and you will not lose access to your iTunes Store purchases as a result of this change.
For more information, see this Apple Support page:
Convert your AOL Username to an Apple ID - Apple Support
You must convert your AOL Username to an Apple ID to maintain access to the stores and to content you purchased previously.
Apple can't provide support for AOL Username accounts that aren't converted by March 31, 2015. The conversion process applies only to AOL Usernames. You don't need to convert an Apple ID that ends in @aol.com. Also, this transition doesn't affect any AOL services that you use with your AOL Username.
Cheers,
Jeremy

Conversion from BO 5.1.9 Deski to BO XI 3.1 SP3 Webi

Hi Everyone,
As part of of our project, we are executing a BO upgrade project and have undertaken BO report migration and conversion from deskI in BO 5.1.9 to WebI in BO XI 3.1. The conversion of reports was assumed to be carried out through the report conversion tool (RCT) of BO XI 3.1 SP3. However, RCT has failed in converting all deskI reports to WebI.
Hence, we are seeking your help & assistance in finding out, the optimal way of resolving the problem. Can you please indicate:
1. Is there any hotfix/patch that SAP can provide for making RCT more robust resulting in elimination of conversion errors/influence the success rate of report conversion?
2. If no hotfix for RCT is present, can we get quick answers from SAP through the alliance for resolution of these report conversion errors? We have received the below errors when we made an attempt at report conversion
1.Breaks in Web Intelligence can only be set on objects present in the block
2 Objects cannot be hidden in Web Intelligence documents
3.Page setup options are not implemented in Web Intelligence (First page number, page order, scale, Fit to N pages)
4.Across options for crosstabs are not available in Web Intelligence -5.Detail variables have no associated dimension in Web Intelligence 6.Conditional or permanent Hide Header not available in Web Intelligence 7.Function not available in Web Intelligence
8.The formula of a global filter in Desktop Intelligence cannot be migrated into a Web Intelligence report filter
9.A formula from a Desktop Intelligence block filter cannot be migrated into a Web Intelligence block filter
10.Unsupported 'Do not retrieve data' option
11.Conditional or permanant Hide Footer does not exist in Web Intelligence
12.Keyword not available in Web Intelligence
13.Unsupported Data Provider
Anticipating your help and cooperation at the earliest. Please let me know if you need any more information.
Many Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep

Report Conversion Tool cannot guarantee 100% conversion rates. It's imposible due to functionality differences that still exist between Full Client/Deski and Webi documents.
If you have a report that won't convert - you will have to manualy re-create it in Webi. It'll show you if design you use is even possible there or not.
As to the list of errors you provided - each one has to be reviewed and investigated to see why it happens.
Like #3 - might be due to the fact that Webi has no page options or #13 might indicate unsupported data provider, lust like the error says.
You might want to open a support Incident to properly investigate all the errors you received, but keep in mind - 100% conversion is not possible unless you use simplest reports.

Batch level settings conversion from plant-to-plant to material-level

If someone has worked on conversion of Batch level settings within SAP from plant-to-plant to material-level batch management, please let me know what are the challenges involved in doing this. Thanks.

Check help !!!
To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to batch numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical. In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
Standard settings
In the standard delivery batches are uniquely defined at material level.
Activities
To change the batch level, proceed as follows:
1. Choose the level at which you want your batches to be unique.
2. Save the new settings and choose Back.
3. Choose Batch level -> Conversion.
4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Further notes
Note that you cannot reset conversion from plant level to a higher level in the standard.
If you create a client by copying an existing client, initially, there are no settings in the target client at batch level. The system makes the settings in the target client only when you have carried out an activity (maintaining master data or posting a goods movement, for example). The client level is not transported. If you copy a client with client level, you have to manually set the client level in the target system.

About the effect for batch level conversion from material to plant level

Dears,
Now we use batch management at material level in our system, now we want to change to batch level from material level to plant level, what effects or risks it will bring during the process of conversion?
Thanks a lot

Hi
check the following SAP help link it is very helpful:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/es/d2/1d4b6e5733d1118b3f0060b03ca329/content.htm
at the link you can find the following
Specify batch level and activate status management
In this IMG activity, you specify the following:
the level at which batch numbers are unique
whether batch status management is active in the client
the plants in which batch status management is active
the initial status of new batches
Batch level
Batch numbers can be unique at the following levels:
at plant level
at material level
at client level for a material
If you choose plant level, the batch number is unique in conjunction with the respective material and the plant. If you choose material level, the batch number is unique together with the material. At client level, the batch number is unique in the whole client.
To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical. In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
Standard settings
In the standard R/3 System, batches are unique at plant level.
Activities
To change the batch level, proceed as follows:
      1. Choose the level at which you want your batches to be unique.
      2. Save the new settings and choose Back.
      3. Select function Batch level -> Conversion.
      4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Further notes
Note that you cannot reset conversion from plant level to a higher level in the standard.
If you create a client by copying an existing client, initially, there are no settings in the target client at batch level. The system makes the settings in the target client only when you have carried out an activity (maintaining master data or posting a goods movement, for example).
SETTINGS BEFORE/AFTER CLIENT COPY:
Source client Target client
Client level Material level
Material level Material level
Plant level Plant level
Batch status management
Batch status management is an additional function provided by the standard R/3 System.
Standard settings
Batch status management is not active in the standard R/3 system.
Activities
To activate batch status management, proceed as follows:
      1. Choose Batch status management active.
      2. Save the new setting and choose Back.
      3. Choose Batch status management -> conversion.
      4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Further notes
Batch status management is linked to the batch level. At material and at plant level, the status management settings are valid within the client, that is for all plants. However, if you have defined batches to be unique at plant level, you have to select the plants in which status management is to be active using function Plants with status management.
If you activate status management, all existing batches are assigned status 'unrestricted'. If you deactivate status management, the systems transfers all restricted batches to unrestricted stock within conversion. Restricted stock only exists if status management is active.
If you create a client by copying an existing client, status management is automatically activated if batches exist in the target client, independent of the settings in the source client. If no batches exist in the target client, it is not activated. In this case, you have to activate or deactivate status management manually, if required.
Plants with batch status management
Activities
To select the plants in which status management is to be active, proceed as follows:
      1. Set characteristic Batch status management for those plants in which batch status management is to be active.
      2. Save your settings and choose function Back.
      3. Choose function Batch status management -> conversion
      4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Initial status of a new batch
Using this function, you can specify for each material type which initial status new batches are to be assigned. However, if you use a quality management system, this specifies the status of the batches.
Hope it will help
Best Regards

Struts/ADF/Toplink conversion from 10.1.2 to 10.1.3

Hi. We have a J2EE application based on Struts/ADF/Toplink.
We just let the JDeveloper migrate the whole application itself.
We solved a few minor problems, but now we have the greater one:
- we have in domain classes some getX...(), setX...() methods, intended for example
for getting attributes of nested objects or for conversion from String to Date.
In older version, when you had some getXSomeAtr() method in domain class, the attribute
XSomeAttr was automatically generated into Data Control.
In newer version it's not! If you want the attribute to be in data control, you must
have an private attribute XSomeAtr declared in domain class.
Example - we have these attibutes (first two has their own getters and setters and are
mapped in toplink, the third is unmapped)
private Date datum;
private String nazev;
private String XDatumAsDate;
and methods
public String getXDatumAsDate() {
return OurUtils.dateToStringAsDate(getDatum());
public void setXDatumAsDate(String datum) throws ParseException{
Date d = OurUtils.StringToDateAsDate(datum);
setDatum(d);
And the form look like this
<html:text property="XDatumAsDate" .../>
<html:text property="nazev" .../>
Reading is ok, but attempt to modify date in input field ends with
"JBO-35009: Setting attribute for XDatumAsDate in object methodRSICollection failed"
Are we doing something wrong ? We just need to have the date entering under our control and
be able to enter dates in various formats.
Thanks in advance for any comments.

I compared the both old and new data control xml files and found the difference. The previous attribute descriptor has IsUpdateable="true" but the new has IsUpdateable="0".
Manually changing won't help - data control generation of any class regenerates all data controls and puts back IsUpdateable="0". I'm stuck now.

Best practice video conversion from download

I am looking for best practice for video conversions.
I am downloading adobe recordings via this method:
http://server.adobeconnect.com/xyz/output/filename.zip?download=zip
From here, I have been converting the FLVs using either freemake video converter or FLV converter. I have tried converting into AVI (XVID), MOV, WMV, etc. (I need the file to be under 600 MB for an hour of recording, therefore it is going to need some type of compression).
My goal is to import the video into Sony Vegas Pro 10 for further editting. I have found that whatever method I use, the video and audio does not sync properly about 50% of the time. The video time is longer than the audio time usually. Or that there are other various errors, such as the video just freezing halfway through the video.
I have been using connect for a few years now, but with each update I find (connect 8, 9, etc), that the problems are getting worse. At this point I am just wasting time trying to convert into various formats using various codecs just trying to luck upon one where the video is at least without error.
What methods are others using to convert the FLV to a workable editable format?

Can't the FLV files be changed into many different formats through Apple's
Compressor or Adobe Media Encoder? These formats can then be opened in
standard video editing software for editing.

Yes, I use this as a last resort, as the quality of capture this was is
signifcatnly lower. As well as it is a much more time consuming process. I
sometimes have over 50 parts of 1 hour video. To use camtasia, you need
first to record it, then it must be saved in a camtasia format, and then
lastly rendered into avi or wmv. Therefore, it is does take awhile.
Really, I feel there shouldnt be so many errors in the conversion process,
but I am finding the FLV recordings themselves have problems. This last
file I am looking at, even the recording playback on adobe connect, has
serious issues with audio and video sync. A problem that is all too common
