Need help with ending a game
i'm making a game at the moment.......
i need help with a way to check all the hashmaps of enimies in a class called room......i need to check if they all == 0...when they all equal zero the game ends......
i know i can check the size of a hash map with size().....but i want to check if all the hashmaps within all the rooms == 0.
First of all stop cross posting. These values in the HashMap, they are a "Collection" of values, so what is wrong with reply two and putting all these collections of values into a super collection? A collection of collections? You can have a HashMap of HashMaps. One HashMap that holds all your maps and then you can use a for loop to check if they are empty. A map is probably a bad choice for this operation as you don't need a key and an array will be much faster.
HashMap [] allMaps = {new HashMap(),new HashMap()};

Need help with " Number guessing game " please?
This is what teacher requires us to do for this assignment:
Write a program that plays a simple number guessing game. In this game the user will think of a number and the program will do the guessing. After each guess from the program, the user will either indicate that the guess is correct (by typing �c�), or that the next guess should be higher (by typing �h�), or that it should be lower (by typing �l�). Here is a sample output for a game. In this particular game the user thinks of the number 30:
$java GuessingGameProgram
Guess a number between 0 and 100
Is it 50? (h/l/c): l
Is it 25? (h/l/c): h
Is it 37? (h/l/c): l
Is it 31? (h/l/c): l
Is it 28? (h/l/c): h
Is it 29? (h/l/c): h
Is it 30? (h/l/c): c
Thank you for playing.

This program is implementing a binary search algorithm, dividing the range of possible values in half with each guess. You can implement any algorithm that you want, but, all things being equal, binary search is the best algorithm.
Write the program so that the functionality is split between two classes: GuessingGameProgram, and NumberGuesser.
GuessingGameProgram will only be used for its main function. It should instantiate a NumberGuesser, and it will be responsible for the loop that notifies the user of the next guess, reads the �h�, �l�, or �c� from the user, and sends an appropriate message to the number guesser accordingly.
The guesses themselves should all be generated by the NumberGuesser class. Here is a diagram of the members and methods for the class. Notice that the members are unspecified. Feel free to give your NumberGuesser class any members (which we have also been calling fields, or instance variables) that you find useful. Make them all private.
NumberGuesser
NumberGuesser(int upperLimit, int lowerLimit)
int guess()
void higher()
void lower()
The constructor should take two integer arguments, a lower and upper bound for the guesses. In your program the constructor will be called with bounds of 0 and 100.
The guess method should return the same value if it is called more than once without intervening calls to the lower or higher methods. The class should only change its guess when it receives a message indicating that its next guess should be higher or lower.
Enjoy. Focus your attention on the NumberGuesser class. It is more interesting than the GuessingGameProgram class because it is a general-purpose class, potentially useful to anybody who is writing a number guessing game. Imagine, for instance, that a few weeks from now you are asked to write a number guessing game with a graphical Java Applet front end. If you NumberGuesser class is well written, you may be able to reuse it without any modifications.
I'm new to JAVA and I'm set with my 2nd homework where I'm so confused. I know how to do something of this source in C language, but I'm a bit confused with Java. This is the code me and my classmate worked on, I know it's not 100% of what teacher asked, but is there any way possibly you guys could help me? I wrote this program if the game is played less then 10 times, thought I would then re-create a program without it, but now I'm confused, and my class book has nothing about this :( and I'm so confused and lost, can you please help? And out teacher told us that it's due the end of this week :( wish I knew what to do. Thank you so so much.
Here's the code:
import java.text.*;
import java.io.*;
class GuessingGame
public static void main( String[] args ) throws IOException
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( System.in ) );
int guess = 0, limit = 9, x = 0, n, a = 0 ;
double val = 0 ;
String inputData;
for ( x = 1; x <= 10; x++) //number of games played
System.out.println("round " + x + ":");
System.out.println(" ");
System.out.println("I am thinking of a number from 1 to 10. ");
System.out.println("You must guess what it is in three tries. ");
System.out.println("Enter a guess: ");
inputData = stdin.readLine();
guess = Integer.parseInt( inputData );
val = Math.random() * 10 % limit + 1; //max limit is set to 9
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
nf.setMaximumFractionDigits(0); //format number of decimal places
String s = nf.format(val);
val = Integer.parseInt( s );
for ( n = 1; n <= 3; n++ ) //number of guess's made
if ( guess == val)
System.out.println("RIGHT!!"); //if guess is right
a = a + 1;
System.out.println("You have won " + a + " out of " + x + " rounds");
System.out.println(" ");
n = 3;
continue;
if (n == 3 && guess != val) //3 guesses and guess is wromg
System.out.println("wrong");
System.out.println("The correct number was " + val);
System.out.println("You have won " + a + " out of " + x + " rounds");
System.out.println(" ");
continue;
//how close guess is to value
if ( guess == val - 1 || val + 1 == guess) //Within 1
System.out.println("hot");
else if ( guess == val - 2 || val + 2 == guess) // Within 2
System.out.println("warm");
else
System.out.println("cold"); // Greater than 3
inputData = stdin.readLine();
guess = Integer.parseInt( inputData );
//ratings
if ( a <= 7)
System.out.println("Your rating is: imbecile.");
else if ( a <= 8)
System.out.println("Your rating is: getting better but, dumb.");
else if (a <= 9)
System.out.println("Your rating is: high school grad.");
else if ( a == 10)
System.out.println("Your rating is: College Grad.!!!");Try this.
By saying that, I expect you ,and your classmate(s), to study this example and then write your own. Hand it in as-is and you'll be rumbled as a homework-cheat in about 20ms ;)
When you have an attempt where you can explain, without refering to notes, every single line, you've cracked it.
Also (hint) comment your version well so your tutor is left with the impression you know what you're doing.
In addition (huge hint) do not leave the static inner class 'NumberGuesser' where it is. Read your course notes and find out where distinct classes should go.
BTW - Ever wonder if course tutors scan this forum for students looking for help and/or cheating?
It's a double edged sword for you newbies. If you ask a sensible, well researched question, get helpful answers and apply them to your coursework, IMHO you should get credit for doing that.
On the other hand, if you simply post your assignment and sit there hoping some sucker like me will do it for you, you should be taken aside and given a good kicking - or whatever modern educational establishments consider appropriate abmonishment ;)
I'd say this posting is, currently, slap bang between the two extreemes, so impress us. Post your solution in the form you intend to hand it in, and have us comment on it.
Good luck!

Need help with a guessing game
Hi. hopefully, this is a really easy issue to resolve. I had to write a program that administers a guessing game, where the computer chooses a random number, and the user has to guess the number. If the user doesn't get it within 5 guesses, they lose and start all over with a new number. I have this all in a while loop (as per my instructions). My issue is that whenever the user enters 0, the program should quit with the users final score and so on. My program will not quit unless the 0 is entered on the last (fifth) guess. please help, it would be very appreciated. Here is my code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class guessgame {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scanner = new Scanner (System.in);
int randnum; //random number generated by computer
int userguess = 1; //number the user guesses
int userscore = 0; //number of correct guesses by user
int compscore = 0; //number of times not guessed
int guessnum = 0; //number of guesses for one number
int gamenum = 0; //number of games played
System.out.println ("I will choose a number between 1 and 10");
System.out.println ("Try to find the number using as few guesses as possible");
System.out.println ("After each guess i will tell you if you are high or low");
System.out.println ("Guess a number (or 0 to quit)");
while (userguess != 0) {
randnum = 1 + (int)(Math.random() * 10); //generates random number
gamenum ++;
userguess = userguess;
for (guessnum = 1; guessnum < 6 && userguess != randnum; guessnum ++) {
userguess = scanner.nextInt();
userguess = userguess;
if (guessnum >= 5) {
System.out.println ("You did not guess my number!");
} //closes if statement
if (userguess == randnum) {
userscore ++;
System.out.println ("You guessed it! It took you " + guessnum + " tries.");
System.out.println ("If you want to play again, enter a guess");
System.out.println ("If you do not want to play again, enter 0");
} //closes if statement
else if (userguess < randnum)
System.out.println ("Your guess is too low");
else if (userguess > randnum)
System.out.println ("Your guess is too high");
}//closes for loop
} //closes while loop
compscore = gamenum - userscore;
System.out.println ("Thanks for playing! You played " + gamenum + " games");
System.out.println ("Out of those " + gamenum + " games, you won " + userscore + " times");
System.out.println ("That means that I won " + compscore + " times");
} //closes main
} //ends guessgame classThe problem with your program is that the while loop doesn't get checked. The condition of the while loop will only get checked each iteration, and not during one iteration. The time you are in your for-loop is still one iteration so it won't check if userguess is 0. see it liek this
While: is userguess 0, no, do 1 iteration
while-iteration-forloop: check 5 guesses, userguess can be anything even 0 while loop won't stop.
end of for loop
end of while-iteration
new while iteration, is userguess 0?
and so on.

I need help with an app game purchase
I recently added 20$ to my account with 2 10$ Itunes cards. I play the app called clash of clans, in the game you can buy things with itunes, I tried to make a purchase for 19.99 when there is just about 21 $ in my itunes and it's telling me I have insufficient funds. This is odd becusee a couple days ago I did the same thing with the itunes card but now I'm getting this error. I checked my itunes again and I have the money, please help!
What country are you in ? If you are in the US then does your state's sales tax take it over what you have on your account ?

Need help with Connect 4 game, IndexOutOfRangeException was unhandled
Hi! I've been struggling with this for a while now, the issue is that as soon i move a game piece to the field i get this errorats "IndexOutOfRangeException was unhandled" and i don't know why since my intention with the code was to use for loops
look through the 2D array thats based on two constants: BOARDSIZEx = 9 and BOARDSIZEy = 6. Instead of traditional 7*6 connect 4 grid i made it 9 squares wide due to having pieces on the side to drag and drop.
Here's the code for my checkwin:
public bool checkWin(Piece[,] pieceArray, bool movebool)
bool found = false;
//Horizontal
for (int i = 0; i < BOARDSIZEx - 3; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < BOARDSIZEy; j++)
if ((pieceArray[i, j] != null)
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i, j + 1])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i, j + 2])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i, j + 3]))
if (pieceArray[i, j].IsStarter != movebool)
found = true;
goto Done; //interesting way of getting out of nested for loop
//for more on goto: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/324831/breaking-out-of-a-nested-loop
//Vertikal
for (int i = 0; i < BOARDSIZEx; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < BOARDSIZEy - 3; j++)
if ((pieceArray[i, j] != null)
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i + 1, j]) && (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i + 2, j])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i + 3, j]))
if (pieceArray[i, j].IsStarter != movebool)
found = true;
goto Done; //interesting way of getting out of nested for loop
//for more on goto: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/324831/breaking-out-of-a-nested-loop
//Diagonal, Lower left to upper right
for (int i = 0; i < BOARDSIZEx - 3; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < BOARDSIZEy - 3; j++)
if ((pieceArray[i, j] != null)
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i + 1, j +1])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i + 2, j + 2])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i + 3, j + 3]))
if (pieceArray[i, j].IsStarter != movebool)
found = true;
goto Done; //interesting way of getting out of nested for loop
//for more on goto: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/324831/breaking-out-of-a-nested-loop
//Diagonal, upper left to lower right
for (int i = 0; i >= BOARDSIZEx; i--)
for (int j = 0; j < BOARDSIZEy - 3; j++)
if ((pieceArray[i, j] != null)
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i - 1, j + 1])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i - 2, j + 2])
&& (pieceArray[i, j] == pieceArray[i - 3, j +3]))
if (pieceArray[i, j].IsStarter != movebool)
found = true;
goto Done; //interesting way of getting out of nested for loop
//for more on goto: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/324831/breaking-out-of-a-nested-loop
Done:
return !found;
It's at the vertical check that the error occurs and also my checkwin doesnt seem to respond to the call in the game.cs code.
//check for win
bool moveBool = true; //returns yes or no depending on whether both players have moved their pieces
if (move % 2 == 0) moveBool = false;
bool win = rules.checkWin(pieceArray, moveBool);
//The game is won!
if (win)
string winningPlayerName = player1.Name; //creating a new player instance, just for shortening the code below
if (moveBool == false) winningPlayerName = player2.Name; //if it was player 2 who won, the name changes
message = winningPlayerName + " has won the game!\n\n"; //The name of the player
Board.PrintMove(message); //Print the message
if (moveBool == true) player1.Score += 1; else player2.Score += 1; //update score for the players
//The player's labels get their update texts (score)
Board.UpdateLabels(player1, player2);
//Here, depending on what one wants to do, the board is reset etc.
else
move++; //draw is updated
And here's a picture on how it looks like at the moment.
Thanks in Advance!
Student at the University of Borås, Swedenfor (int i = 0; i < BOARDSIZEx; i++) // If BOARDSizex is the number of elements in the first dimension...

You probably meant to add the one, two, or three to the j rather than the i. -
I need help with shooting in my flash game for University
Hi there
Ive tried to make my tank in my game shoot, all the code that is there works but when i push space to shoot which is my shooting key it does not shoot I really need help with this and I would appriciate anyone that could help
listed below should be the correct code
//checking if the space bar is pressed and shooting is allowed
if(evt.keyCode == 32 && shootAllow){
//making it so the user can't shoot for a bit
shootAllow = false;
//declaring a variable to be a new Bullet
var newBullet:Bullet = new Bullet();
//changing the bullet's coordinates
newBullet.y = tank_mc.y + tank_mc.width/2 - newBullet.width/2;
newBullet.x = tank_mc.x;
//then we add the bullet to stage
addChild(newBullet);
listed below is my entire code
import flash.display.MovieClip;
//declare varibles to create mines
//how much time before allowed to shoot again
var cTime:int = 0;
//the time it has to reach in order to be allowed to shoot (in frames)
var cLimit:int = 12;
//whether or not the user is allowed to shoot

Need help with a simple basketball game.
Hi im new here and I need help with making this simple basketball game.
Im trying to recreate this game from this video. Im not sure if he is using as2 or as3
Or if anyone could help me make a game like this or direct me to a link on how to do it It would be greatly appreciated.If you couldn't tell whether it is AS2 or AS3, it is doubtful you can turn it from AS2 into AS3, at least not until you learn both languages. There is no tool made that does it for you.

Need help with this book problem...Pig game...can ANYONE help!??
I need help with the following book problem...could someone write this code for me?? Thanks!!
First design and implement a class called PairOfDice, composed of two six-sided Die objects. Using the PairOfDice class, design and implement a class to play a game called Pig. In this game, the user competes against the computer. On each turn, the current player rolls a pair of dice and accumulates points. The goal is to reach 100 points before your opponent does. If, on any turn, the player rolls a 1, all points accumulated for that round are forfeited and control of the dice moves to the other player. If the player rolls two 1s in one turn, the player loses all points accumulated thus far in the game and loses control of the dice. The player may voluntarily turn over the dice after each roll. Therefore the player must decide to either roll again (be a pig) and risk losing points, or relinquish control of the dice, possibly allowing the other player to win. Implement the computer player such that it always relinquishes the dice after accumulating 20 or more points in any given round.
I realize this is a long code, so it would be greatly appreciated to anyone who writes this one for me, or can at least give me any parts of it. I honestly have no clue how to do this because our professor is a dumbass and just expects us to know how to do this...he doesn't teach us this stuff...don't ask. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope someone helps out!! Thank you in advance to anyone who does!!!Nasty comments? It's not a matter of not liking you, it's a matter of responding to the
"I'ts everyone else's fault but mine" attitude of your post.
If you are genuine, the program is very easy to write, so, your Professor is correct when he said you should
be able to do it. I'm still very much in the beginner category at java, and it took me only 20 mins to write
(+5 mins to design it on paper). 2 classes in one file < 100 lines. Most of the regulars here would do it in half the time / half the lines.
All of the clues are in the description, break them down into their various if / else conditions. Write it down on paper.
Have a go. Try to achieve something. Post what you've tried, no-one will laugh at you, and you will be
pleasanty surprised at the level of help you will get when you've "obviously" made some effort.
Again, have a go. If you don't like problem-solving, then you don't like programming. So, you gotta ask
yourself - "what am I doin' here?" -
Need help with "Shield" on side scrolling shooter game
I am horribly new to Flash, and I need lots of help with a lot of things, most notably a shield I'm trying to give the player in a side scrolling shooter game. I need help with:
1. Making the ship change color when it's activated.
2. Making it so enemies die on contact with the ship.
3. Making the "shield" variable go down constantly while in use.
If anyone could help, I would appreciate it a lot.I wouldn't want any of you to write this program for me because I want to learn it myself. Yes I'm a student and I have to write some game with my groupe for a telephone in java like language doja. We decided to let it be a chess game. However I'm looking for an already written game in java that preferebly has some comments above the program lines so I can see what they've done. Offcourse if nobody has anything like this, yes I'm looking for a way to make an algorithm that makes the cpu move each time the player makes it's move. I have no idea on how to do this. I was hoping it can be solved with for, while, if and genest for statements. Yes it wil be a game with graphics but I think we can manage that part ourselves. So main question is the algorithm for the cpu moves. Do I have to pre-program every game in the book or is there another way etc..
I hope there's anybody that can and is willing to get me on my way since I know it maybee isn't the most simple question. -

Need help with a currently "in-use" form we want to switch to Adobes hosting service
Hi, I am in desperate need of help with some issues concerning several forms which we currently use a paid third party (not Adobe) to host and "re-distribute through email"...Somehow I got charged $14.95 for YOUR service, (signed up for a trial, but never used it)..and now I am paying for a year of use of the similar service which Adobe is in control of. I might want to port my form distribution through Adobe in the hopes of reducing the errors, problems and hassles my customers are experiencing when some of them push our "submit button". (and I guess I am familiar with these somewhat from reading what IS available in here, and I also know that, Adobe is working to alleviate some of these " submit" issues, so let's don't start by going backwards, here) I need solutions now for my issues or I can leave it as is, If Adobe's solution will be no better for my end users...
We used FormsCentral to code these forms and it works for the most part (if the end-user can co-operate, and thats iffy, sometimes), but I need help with how to make it go through your servers (and not the third party folks we use now), Not being cruel or racist here, but your over the phone "support techs" are about horrible & I cannot understand them or work with any of them, so I would definitely need someone who speaks English and can understand the nuances of programming these forms, to please contact me back. (Sorry, but both those attributes will be required to be able to help me, so, no "newbie-interns" or first week trainees are gonna cut it).... If you have anyone who fits the bill on those items and would be willing to help us, please contact me back at your earliest convenience. If we have to communicate here, I will do that & I can submit whatever we need to & to whoever we need to.
I need to get this right and working for the majority of my users and on any platform and OS.
You may certainly call me to talk about this, and I have given my number numerous times to your (expletive deleted) time wasting - recording message thingy. So, If it's not available look it up under [email protected]
(and you will probably get right to me, unlike my and I'm sure most other folks', "Adobe phone-in experiences")
Thank You,

Phenix City, Alabama 36869Well, thanks for writing back...just so you know...I started using Adobe products in 1987, ...yeah...back then...like Illustrator 1 & 9" B&W Macs ...John Warnock's Helvetica's....stuff like that...8.5 x 11 LaserWriters...all that good stuff...I still have some of it working on a mac...much of it was stuff I bought. some stuff I did not...I'm not a big fan of this "cloud" thing Adobe has foisted upon the creatives of the world...which I'm sure you can tell...but the functionality and usefulness of your software can not be disputed, so feel free to do whatever we will continue to pay for, ...I am very impressed with CC PS on the 64 bit PC and perhaps I will end up paying you the stipend that you demand for the other services.
So I guess that brings us to our problem.. a few years back and at the height of the recession and near bankruptcy myself, I was damn lucky and hit on something and began a small arts and crafts supply service to sell my products online to a very "niche market" ...I had a unique product and still sell that product (plus others) online...My website is www.vinylcouture.com...Strange? Yes...but there is a market it seems, for everything now, and this is the market I service...Catagorically, these are 99%+ women that use these "adhesive, sticky backed vinyl products" to make different "craft items" that are just way too various and numerous to go into... generally older women, women who are computer illiterate for the most part...and all this is irrelevant to my problem, but I want you to have every bit of background on this and especially the demographic we are dealing with, so we can get right to the meat of the problem.
OK...So about two years ago, I decided to offer a "plain sheet" product of a plain colored "stick back" vinyl... it is available in multiple quantities of packs ( like 5 pieces, 10 pieces, 15 pieces, in a packi & so on)...and if you are still on my site.. go to any "GO RIGHT TO OUR ORDER PAGE" button, scroll down a little...and then to the "PLAIN VINYL" section...you will see the Weebly website order process.) You can back out from here, I think,..but, anyway this product is available in 63 colors + or - a few. So then the problem is, how do they select their individual colors within that (whatever) pack?... .
So my initial idea was to enable a "selection form" for these "colors" that would be transmitted to me via email as 'part" of the "order process".. We tried getting our customers to submit a " a list" ( something my competitiors still do, lol, poor bastards)......but that..is just unbelievable..I can't even begin to tell you what a freakin' nightmare that was...these people cannot even count to 10, much less any higher... figuring out what colors to list and send me... well, lets just say, it wasn't working......I had to figure out a better way...Something had to be done.
So after thinking this all out, and yeah...due to my total ignorance, i figured that we could make a form with Live Cycle Designer (Now Forms Central)...(back then something that was bundled with Adobe Acrobat Pro), I believe, and thats what this thing was authored in... and it would be all good...LOL!
Well not so simple...as you well know, Adobe Acrobat would NOT LET YOU EMAIL anything from itself.....it just wouldn't work (and I know why, and all that hooey), but not being one to take NO for answer,.I started looking for a way to make my little gizmo work.. So I found this company that said they can "hijack" (re-direct actually) the request to email, bypass the wah-wah, and re-transmit it to the proper parties.....for less than $100 a year, I think...its called http://pdf-fillableforms.com/.
A nice gentleman named Joseph Silva helped us program the thing to go to his servers and back out. Please dont hassle them...I need them...for now..it basically does work...try it...you should get back a copy of the form that you filled out...good luck however, if you're on MAC OSX or similar...
I have included a copy of both of our forms (and feel free to fill it out and play with it)...just put test somewhere on it...(and you must include YOUR email or it will balk)..they are supposed to be mostly identical, except one seems to be twice as large....generating a 1.7 meg file upon submission, while the other one only generates a 600K file or so...thats another issue for another day or maybe you can advise on that also...
OK so far so good......In our shop, once Grandma buys a 10 pack (or whatever), Only then she gets to the link on her receipt page ro the relevant "selection form" ,(this prevents "Filling and Sending" with "no order" and "no payment", another early problem we had)... which they can click on and it will usually download and open up on their device if all goes well...Then our little form is supposed to be fillable and is supposed to ADD UP all the quantities, so grandma knows how many she is buying and so forth right on the fly, and even while she changes her mind..., and IT'S LARGE so grandma can see it, and then it TOTALS it all up for them, ( cause remember, they can NOT add).., except there is a programming bug (mouse-click should be a mouse-up probably or something..) which makes you click in the blank spaces to get to a correct TOTAL...about 70-80% of our customers can enable all these features and usually the process completes without problems for them especially on PC's running Windows OS and Acrobat Reader X or XI...at least for most... Unfortunately it is still not the "seamless process" I would like or had envisioned for the other folks out there that do have trouble using our form.... Many folks report to us the following issues that we know of. First of all it takes too much time to load up...We know its HUGE...is there anyway that you can see, to streamline this thing? I would love for it to be more compact...this really helps on the phones and pads as I'm sure you well know.
Some just tell us,"it WON'T work"....I believe this is because they are totally out of it and dont even have Adobe Reader on their machine, & don't know how to get it ( yes, we provide the links).....or it's some ancient version....no one can stop this one...
It almost always generates some kind ( at least one time) of "error message" which we do warn them about..., telling one, basically that "Acrobat doesnt even like this happening at all, and it could be detrimental to ones computer files", blah-blah...(this freaks grandma out really bad)...& usually they end up not even trying to send it... and then I get calls that even you wouldn't believe...& If they DO nut up and push the Red "Submit Form" button, it will usually send the thing to us (and also back to them at the "required email address" they furnished on the form, thats what the folks at the "fillable forms place" do) so, if it's performing it's functions, why it is having to complain?. What are we doing wrong?....and how can I fix it?...Will re-compiling it or saving it as a newer version of "FormsCentral" correct any of these problems ?
Ok, so that should keep you busy for a minute and we can start out with those problems...but the next thing is, how can I take advantage of YOUR re-direct & hosting services?, And will it get rid of the error messages, and the slowness, and the iOS incompatibilities ? (amazingly, the last iOS Reader version worked almost OK.. but the newest version doesnt seem to work with my form on my iphone4) If it will enable any version of the iOS to send my form correctly and more transparently, then it might be worth the money...$14.95 a MONTH you say. hmmmmm...Better be good.
Another problem is, that I really don't need 5000 forms a month submitted. I think its like 70-100 or less....Got any plans for that? Maybe I'm just not BIG ENOUGH to use Adobe's services, however in this case, I really don't care whose I do use as long as the product works most correctly for my customers as well as us. Like I said, If I'm doing the best I can, I won't change anything, and still use the other third party, If Adobe has a better solution, then i'm all for that as well. In the meantime, Thanks for any help you can provide on this...

I need help with resetting my ichat. When i try to login now it wont let me... it says "AOL Instant Messenger password" and then "iChat can't log in to ... because your login ID or password is incorrect. How do I reset this if I cant log in? When I try to press online the same thing pops up and I have no way of logging in or asking for help.
Hi,
iChat (it would help to know which version) can accept Apple IDs as valid AIM Screen Names.
However if you have iChat 5 or earlier you cannot use ones ending in @me.com or @icloud.com issued by iCloud. (they can be used in iChat 6 or Messages as these versions make a double login to AIM and Apple to allow the use of the password).
In addition if you are using an Apple ID for an AIM Screen Name the password still needs to keep to the 16 character limit that AIM has.
AN @mac.com name can be used on any version of iChat (Until the 30th June 2014)
As it does not need a double check with Apple you can use it to log in to the AIM Web pages
Login here with an AIM Name registered at AIM or and @mac.com name and see if you get any suspended account messages.
Sometimes account can be suspended. Usually because something has triggered the "Unusual Activity" item.
About a year ago many @mac.com users that travelled out of their own country found themselves suspended when they got home.
If the Name checks out of if an Apple ID the password in known to be 16 characters or Less then do this:-
In Lion upwards open a Finder Window and use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears in the menu list.
Navigate to Preferences.
(If you have version earlier than Lion the just navigate to ~/Library/Preferences (that's the Library in you Home - Little House icon - folder)
Fnd com.apple.ichat.aim.plist (even if you are using Messages)
Drag the file to the Trash and Restart the app.

I need to find the greatest grant year for the grant by a period parameter.
once i find the greatest year i need to check the value of period 14 for that grant for the previous year and add it to the budget amount for that grant. however if their is an entry in the greatest year for period 00 then i need to ignore the period 14 of previous year and do this calculation current period +(current period - greatest year 00)
hope that makes sense so in other words with the new data above. if i was querying period two of grant year 11. i would end up with $800
because the greatest year is 11 it contains a period 0 with amount of $400 so my total should be
period 2 amount $ 600
period 0 amount $ 400 - period 2 amount of $600 = 200
600+200 = $800
if i query period 1 of grant 360055 i would just end up with 800 of grnt year 10.
i have tried to modify that query you supplied to me with no luck. I have tried for several day but im embarrased to say i just can get it to do what im trying to do .
can you please help me out.
here is the query supplied by frank kulash who gracefully put this together for me.
WITH got_greatest_year AS
SELECT fgl.* -- or whatever columns are needed
, MAX ( CASE
WHEN fgl_period = :given_period
THEN fgl_grnt_year
END
) OVER () AS greatest_year
FROM fgl
SELECT SUM (fgl_budget) AS total_budget -- or SELECT *
FROM got_greatest_year
WHERE ( fgl_grnt_year = greatest_year
AND fgl_period = :given_period
OR ( fgl_grnt_year = greatest_year - 1
AND fgl_period = 14
;MiguelHi, Miguel,
Are you waying that, when the greatest year that has :given_period also has period='00' (or '0', or whatever you want to use), then you want to double the budget from the given_period (as well as subtract the budget from the '00', and not count the pevious year's '14')? If so, add another condition to the CASE statement which decides what you're SUMming:
WITH got_greatest_year AS
SELECT TO_NUMBER (fgl_grnt_year) AS grnt_year
, fgl_period
, TO_NUMBER (fgl_budget) AS budget
, MAX ( CASE
WHEN fgl_period = :given_period
THEN TO_NUMBER (fgl_grnt_year)
END
) OVER () AS greatest_year
FROM fgl
, got_cnt_00 AS
SELECT grnt_year
, fgl_period
, budget
, greatest_year
, COUNT ( CASE
WHEN grnt_year = greatest_year
AND fgl_period = '00'
THEN 1
END
) OVER () AS cnt_00
FROM got_greatest_year
SELECT SUM ( CASE
WHEN grnt_year = greatest_year -- New
AND fgl_period = :given_period -- New
AND cnt_00 > 0 THEN budget * 2 -- New
WHEN grnt_year = greatest_year
AND fgl_period = :given_period THEN budget
WHEN grnt_year = greatest_year
AND fgl_period = '00' THEN -budget
WHEN grnt_year = greatest_year - 1
AND fgl_period = '14'
AND cnt_00 = 0 THEN budget
END
) AS total_budget
FROM got_cnt_00
;You'll notice this is the same as the previous query I posted, except for 3 lines maked "New".
