Office 2013 installed with KB2817430, windowsupdate still finds KB2850036. difference between KB2817430 and KB2850036

Hi,
I've made a silent Office 2013 installer with /admin and put SP1 MSP's in the updates folder.
After deployment under installed updates it shows: Service Pack 1 for Microsoft Office 2013 (KB2817430) 32-Bit Edition
But when I check for new updates, "ServicePack 1 for Microsoft Office 2013 (KB2850036) 32-Bit Edition" is ready for download and install.
What is the difference between KB2817430 and KB2850036?
It seems that I cannot download KB2850036 and also integrate it in the silent installation.
Another question: Is the updates folder from Office only for servicepacks? or can I put also updates and patches MSP files in here? If yes then i've got a lot of files with the same name and different files sizes. For example After extracting SP1 I've got
the file "proofsp-en-us.msp" which is 10MB and when extracting another patch also i've got a proof-en-us.msp and is 8MB.
So which one need to go in the updates folder?
Can anyone help me out?
thanks

Hi,
As can be seen from below KB articles, KB2817430 only contains Service Pack 1 (SP1) for Office 2013, whereas KB2850036 also contains Service Pack 1 (SP1) updates for other Office 2013 related desktop products. For example, Microsoft Office 2013
Language Pack, Project 2013, SharePoint Designer 2013, Office Proofing Tools 2013, etc.:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2850036
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2817430
So if you have any of these products on your computer, Windows Update might offer related updates to you.
Regarding the Updates folder issue, you can put any Office software updates in it during the initial installation, such as service packs or hotfixes. A newer patch might make changes to a specific file, you can check the version number of that file, and keep
the newer one in the folder.
Here is the reference you will need:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2011/05/05/using-the-updates-folder-to-deploy-software-updates-with-an-office-2010-installation.aspx
(Note, it was created against Office 2010, however the steps should hold good for Office 2013)

Find the difference between loading and registering the drivers..

Dear Sir..
Could you please help me to find the difference between two activities..

What's the difference between loading and registeing the drivers and what activities take place by the JVM to do it all.

Dear Sir..
Could you please help me to find the difference
between two activities..
1.Loading the drivers
2.Registering the drivers
What's the difference between loading and registeing
the drivers and what activities take place by the JVM
to do it all.You load a class - it isn't specific to a driver.
That is part of java - not JDBC.
Normally JDBC drivers register themselves when the class is loaded. This is specific to the driver and has nothing to do with a user of the driver. It is only a concern to someone who must implement a driver.

Checking out Pdf files to Local draft Folder option no longer works after office 2013 installed.

Checking out Pdf files to Local draft Folder option no longer works after office 2013 installed.
Summary :
We are using SharePoint 2010 Ent edition and users were able to checkout Pdf files similar to local drafts folder like any other office file without any problem when they used office 2010.
i.e
Unfortunately ever since their machines upgraded with office 2013 recently , this functionality completely stopped working for PDF files. This has now become a big problem for the users when it comes to check out and replace PDF files.
All browser plugins required for this functionality (i.e SharePoint OpenDocuments Class ) are all available and active. All document libraries are configured to Checkout is required for editing files. Browser version
used at the moment is IE9 (32 bit) version with windows 7.
Can anyone please help with this issue and any help to get away with this problem is much appreciated.

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that the PDF files cannot be checked out to local drafts folder after Office 2013 is installed.
Did this issue occur with Office files?
I recommend to check if the Office files can be checked out to local drafts folder with Office 2013.
And it is recommended to use Office 2010 with SharePoint 2010 for best practice.

Windows 8.1 system with new Office 2013 install not pulling down any Office 2013 updates from my SCCM 2012 SP1 server

Hi,
I've just setup a new Windows 8.1 system and added to my SCCM 2012 SP1 server and all is good and it pulled down all the correct Windows updates and pulls down automatically the FEP updates that are distributed from SCCM 2012 daily.
I just installed Office 2013 on this system and have activated it as necessary. The problem is that the system doesn't seem to be pulling down any of the Office 2013 updates that have distributed thru SCCM. I have other systems with
Office 2013 installed and they have pulled down Office 2013 updates in the past when I published them.
If I look at the Office 2013 updates in the SCCM console software section, I can see that for example it shows that Office 2013 SP1 (x86) is needed by one system and installed on 8 other systems and shows as downloaded and deployed.
I've restarted the new system multiple times and also tried to force a software update check from the Configuration Manager applet but nothing seems to happen.
What can I check to try and determine what the problem is?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Yes, the 8.1 system is a member of collection where the update deployment is targeted.
Are there any specific logs I should check in the client? If I check the WindowsUpdate.log I can see messages about the machine pulling down the FEP updates but that's all it appears to be doing.
in CCM\logs, focus on the updatehandler and updatedeployment, to begin with

Hi,
As the log, MSGR2CZ.DLL and wwlib.dll were both of the Microsoft libraries,not the third-party libraries. Thus, we need to analysis what happened with the dump file. But, it is beyond what we can do in the forum. I recommend you open a ticket with Microsoft
engineer.

Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save. Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it. I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry! I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired. I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!! The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it. I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated! I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either. I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
The instructions how to do that are here:
Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

BCT - how to find the difference between installed BCT and the newest BCT?

Hi,
How do I find the difference between installed BCT and the newest BCT?
or find a description of the newest BCT?
Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for your answer.
I am aware of the possibilities you mention.
I am looking for a way to find the parts of the business content that has been modified since I installed our current version WITHOUT installing anything.
That is for example:
If F&R business content has been moved from 3.x technology to 7.0
If there is changes to the F&R content at all
-> if our current version of business content already contains the newest version of Business Content for F&R, then it is not a prerequirement to an F&R project that we update business content.
The possibility to see that the only changes might be in the area of SAP HCM ...
Thank you.

I am trying to check the last date (i.e. max date) and also check the penultimate date (i.e. the second to the last date). And then find the difference between the two (i.e. last date minus penultimate
date).
I would like to do that for each of the companies listed in Table 2: Tickers. I am able to do it for just one company (MSFT) using the queries below:
SELECT
[First] = MIN(ExDate),
[Last] = MAX(ExDate),
[Diff] = DATEDIFF(DAY, MIN(ExDate), MAX(ExDate))
FROM (
SELECT TOP 2 Dividends.ExDate
FROM Dividends, Tickers
WHERE Dividends.symId=Tickers.symId
AND Tickers.Symbol='MSFT'
ORDER BY ExDate DESC
) AS X
Outputs the following result:
First
Last
Diff
2012-11-13
2013-02-19
98
But what I would like instead is to be able to output something like this:

Diff
MSFT
2012-11-13

Extract Time from date and Time and Need XLMOD Funtion to find the Difference between Two Time.

X6 = "1/5/15 5:16 AM" & NOW ....................difference by Only Time
not date
X6 date and Time will be changing, Its not Constant
Dim myDateTime As DateTime = X6
            Dim myDate As String = myDateTime.ToString("dd/MM/yy")
            Dim myTime As String = myDateTime.ToString("hh:mm tt")
            Dim myDateTime1 As DateTime = Now
            Dim myDate1 As String = myDateTime1.ToString("dd/MM/yy")
            Dim myTime1 As String = myDateTime1.ToString("hh:mm tt")
Need to use this function to find the Difference between Two Time. due to 12:00 AM isuue
Function XLMod(a, b)
    ' This replicates the Excel MOD function
    XLMod = a - b * Int(a / b)
End Function
Output Required
dim dd = XLMod(myTime - myTime1)
Problem is myTime & myTime1 is String Need to convert them into Time, Later use XLMOD Funtion.

Induhar,
As an addendum to this, I thought I'd add this in also: If you have two valid DateTime objects you might consider using a class which I put together a few years ago
shown on a page of my website here.
To use it, just instantiate with two DateTime objects (order doesn't matter, it'll figure it out) and you'll then have access to the public properties. For this example, I'm just showing the .ToString method:
Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Option Infer Off
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
Dim date1 As DateTime = Now
Dim date2 As DateTime = #1/1/1970 2:35:00 PM#
Dim howOld As New Age(date1, date2)
MessageBox.Show(howOld.ToString, "Age")
Stop
End Sub
End Class
I hope that helps, if not now then maybe at some point in the future. :)
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.
Thanx frank, can use this in Future....

First I need to find the difference between the two date times fields (D1 and D2) and than add the diffence between them to the curent datetime to generate new datetime field (D3).
D1
D2

2013-05-10 12:12:57.000              2013-05-09 5:10:01.000
2013-05-09 9:13:27.000                2013-05-11 11:00:21.000
Thanks!

Hey,
You can try this
SELECT DATEDIFF(Day, D1, D2) as Date_Diff from Table_3
Replace day with
other units you want to get the difference in, like second, minute etc.

Can Oracle be forced to use the spatial index for sdo_filter in combination with an or clause? Difference between Enterprise and SE?

We’re seeing the following issue: sql - Can Oracle be forced to use the spatial index for sdo_filter in combination with an or clause? - Stack Overflow (posted by a colleague of mine) and are curious to know if this behaviour is due to a difference between standard and enterprise, or could we doing something else wrong in our DB config.?
We have also reproduced the issue on the following stacks:
Oracle SE One 11.2.0.3 (with Spatial enabled)
Redhat Linux 2.6.32-358.6.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu May 16 20:59:36 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
11.2.0.3.0 Standard Edition and 11.2.0.4.0 Standard Edition (both with Spatial enabled)
Microsoft Windows Server 2003R2 Standard x64 Edition
However, the SQL works fine if we try it on Oracle 11.2.0.3.0 *Enterprise* Edition.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Kindest Regards,
Kevin

In my experience sdo_filter ALWAYS uses the spatial index, so that's not the problem. Since you did not provide the explain plans, we can't say for sure but I think yhu is right: Standard Edition can't use the bitmap operations, and thus it'll take longer to combine the results of the two queries (because the optimizer will surely split this OR up in two parts, then combine them).
BTW: when asking questions about queries here, it would be nice if you posted the queries here as well, so that we do not have to check another website in order to see what you are doing. Plus it will probably get you more answers, because not everyone can be bothered to click on that link. It would also have been nice if you had posted your own answer on the other post here as well, because my recommendation would have been to use union all - but since you already found that out for yourself my recommendation would have been a little late.
