Ordering slideshows by file name or date?

I've seen several posts about this but no one has come up with a solution on how to order iDVD slideshows by something other than random criteria. Importing into iPhoto is really not an option for me because it introduces a 3rd step (I eschew iPhoto in favor of Lightroom for my 20k+ photo library). Has anyone figured out why iDVD imports in a completely random fashion and how to get around it?

Click in the lower-left corner of iDVD and add a slideshow. Then drag the folder on that.

How to print file name and date on document

How can we print the file name and date, like in the old days, on a document as a header or footer?

Not the print dialog for iWork but in the app itself. Here is Pages:

File name and Date Display as an obj not the data

All,
     The issue that I am having is that when I view a Visio file hosted on SharePoint. The file was created in Visio 2007 and when it is opened by Visio 2007 and Visio Viewer in SharePoint. The file name field object and date
modified object show the information. The issue is when the file is opened by a device that has Visio 2010 the information does not show. Is there something that I can do for these users to have it show correctly.

Hi，
Which way did you open the Visio 2007 file in SharePoint？Opened it in the browser or downloaded it to open？ I had test in my environment. Insert a text box>Add a data/time field, it worked fine both in Visio 2007, 2010.
Thus, let‘s do some test to narrow down the issue’s reason.
1.Download the Visio 2007 file and open it with Visio 2010.
If it worked fine, the issue seems more related to Visio object and sharePoint connection.
If it does not display the information in Visio 2010 by a device client, the issue was more related to Visio 2010 client.
2.Create a new drawing included file name and Date
field in Visio 2010.
If the new drawing displays correct, the issue is more related the original, please try to repair the file or re-create the file name and Date filed.
If the new drawing still displays incorrect, please try to start Visio 2010 in safemode, some third-party add-ins my be casued the issue.
If the issue still exists, try to repair Visio 2010.

Files arranged by date added, but changing file name changes date added

I've got my Downloads folder set to view (in the Finder) by "date added", a very useful feature. However, if I change a file name, the "date added" changes to that new time, and "date modified" stays the same as it was. This doesn't make sense to me... isn't date added just that, when it was added to the folder? Why would this happen? Any workarounds or suggestions?

You should use the 'File/Directory Info' functionality.
This will return the last modificatoin of the file.

1) What you downloaded should be a packed file (zip, tar.gz, etc) that needs to be unpacked into the directory of your choice.
2) & 3) are answered by Ant's installation documentation (the page you're quoting from):

Have file name with date working but appending the time to file name can't get a result

DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(26)
SELECT @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(26),getDate(),110),'-','-'
Have this appended to a filename like: log_01-15-2015. Don't know what to add to SQL code to get the get the time and append time in hours, min, sec. like: log_01-15-2015_10:01:33
DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,110),'-','-') +'_'+ CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,108)
EXEC master.dbo.sp_configure 'show advanced options',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
EXEC master.dbo.sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
SET @bcpCommand = 'bcp "SELECT * FROM ##Temp ORDER BY barcode" queryout "C:\TEMP\Log\ContainerHistory_Log_' + @dt +'" -c -T'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @bcpCommand
I am trying to append to the file created with the date a time stamp but when appending the time part for the filename results aren't creating the file. If it's just doing the date part then it is working. Any idea what is wrong?

Since you added ":" to the file name, the file name is not valid. You can change ":" to "-".
DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @dt = CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,110) +'_'+ REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,108), ':', '-')

IDoc to File with different file name and data based on the IDoc header dat

Hi,
I got a requirement to implement IDOC to file senario. In this the Converted file should have the file name and file content based on IDoc Header data. Means If one of the IDoc header field value is
'A' - then the file name recieved by reciever system should be 'A.txt' and with the columns A B C D F.
'B' - then the file name recieved by reciever system should be 'B.txt' and with the columns C D F.
In both the case IDoc message type is same.
Please suggest me what i need to do to achieve this.
Thanks in Advance. ...
Regards
Sri

Hi,
As per my requirement, we need to create one file for each IDoc based on IDoc header data. SAP program generates 10 IDocs for each run. All 10 IDoc's message type is same. Each IDoc has one header record with the file name. Base on the name in the IDoc header record, file needs to be created with different columns and file name. Means..
IDoc 01- Header Description contains 'A' - than file will be generated should have name as 'A.txt' and columns 'parent' 'child' 'descripion'.
IDoc 02- Header Description contains 'B' - than file will be generated should have name as 'B.txt' and columns 'Name' 'Department' 'Description'.
IDoc 10- Header Description contains 'J' - than file will be generated should have name as 'J.txt' and columns 'Order No' 'Materail' 'Description'.
Hope this will give more clarity on my requirement. Please let me if you are still not clear on requirement.
Thanks for your all help..
Thanks & Regards

Sort order of alphanumeric file names in Finder

File Name Sorting
I often using dates for file names - for letters and for photos in particular, with a format something like yymmdd, e.g., today's date, December 27, would be 071227. Occasionally I may use 20071227. If I have the year and month but do not have a specific date, the file name might look like 0712xx. The sort sequence of files in the various Finder views does not seem to be what I would expect, based on standard computer alphanumeric sorting rules. Here is what I am finding - three files beginning with file names 0708xx, 070212 and 070521 will appear in the Finder list as follows:
0708xx
070212
070521
whereas I would expect the proper sort order to be:
070212
070521
0708xx
If I change "xx" to "00" then the sort order is strictly numerical, i.e.,
070212
070521
070800
No one can explain why the files sort per the first list above, if I use the "xx" convention for the date. Is there a Leopard bug, or is the sort order based on an algorithm I am unfamiliar with.

Tom's comprehensive article provides the answer but is perhaps a bit much for those looking for a simple, easy to remember rule. The brief one at File System Overview: Sorting Rules may be useful in this respect:
"Digit sub-strings are sorted by numeric value rather than as characters."
IOW, much like a human would naturally do, the Finder considers numeric expressions as potentially multi-character entities.
Except ... just like humans, it seems not to know what to do with leading zeros. Try this:
Create a new folder & add to it 4 sub-folders named as follows (all "0" characters are zeros):
2
2aa
02
02aa
Note that in list view, Leopard sorts them by name as follows:
02
2
02aa
2aa
But, try selecting them in order by hitting the tab key repeatedly, which should move you down the list one item after the other ... but doesn't.

Pdf portfolio source file name and date in file details

Is it possible to import the source file name and extension as well as the source file created date in the portfolio file details? Need to document source to portfolio in working with 3rd parties that will only have the original source. Need to document what was converted into pdf as not all files in a directory will successfully convert to pdf. Sometimes need to convert 100's of files. Manual entry is inefficient. the file names and modified dates are displayed on the Combine Files dialog. is there a way to capture the detail on that page?

I don't need the detail of when the pdf was added to the portfolio. I
need know which dwg or jpg or word file was converted and the original
created date of that file for control of information.
That is impossible; sorry. For some *very specific* types of conversion to PDF the pdfx:SourceModified XMP tag will be set to show the last-modification date of the source file (for example DOCX files converted using MS Word), but there will never be a human-readable record of the source filename or its creation date unless you have manually added them as document XMP properties after conversion (this is what the "Custom Properties" dialog is for). To embed source data automatically would raise no end of privacy and security problems for customers, who most certainly do NOT want their recipients seeing details of internal documents.
Without writing a plugin there's no access to the internal workflow of the Combine Files dialog, so you cannot use a script to read the names and dates of the files *before* conversion and store them automatically in the new PDF Portfolio's Fields array.

Implement check for File Names with data into TRG table

hi,
I am trying to load the Multiple files names & Autonumber to oracle table T1 which is further loaded the auto-number with data to target table TRG. My problem is when the same name file comes again due to size then load it again. & also don't insert Target (TRG) table rows with same data while insert the only those records/rows which are not in Target Table(TRG) .. Is this standard approach. becoz in this way I thing loading Performance speed will b down??
Any other or best recommended approach???/
Thanks

Hey Jason,
Create a validation of type exists. in expression 1 put:
SELECT 1
FROM DUAL
WHERE UPPER(:P9_FILE) LIKE '%TEST.HTML';
{code}
change P9_FILE to your file browse item name and change '%TEST.HTML' to '%YOUR_FILE_NAME'
Hope this helps,

Dynamic File Name in Data Source?

In Data Model, there is a option "File" as Type. My question is can file name be dynamic, say I set a parameter "ReportID", can this parameter be part of file name. something like
{$ReportID}.xml
or
{:ReportID}.xml
If yes, what is the syntax.
Thanks.

I don't think you can do that. When you speficy 'File' as the type for the Data source, it expects an existing XML data file stored in the directory that has been set up by the Administrator.
There is no way to define a parameter for the file name and then use this instead..
Thanks!

Copy File name and Date only from a Folder with SSIS

Hello all,
I need to create a package which will list the file names and the dates in a folder, these files are blank flat files. After extracting the file names from the file path i need to create a table which will have two columns Filename and
Date.We get about 1000 such files every month and we are looking to maintain them in a table.
Is this possible? Can someone point me in the right direction?
FM

Arthur , I actually figured it out. The For each container let me pass thru the file name, then I inserted the file name into my staging table. I created a FilePath variable and basically Did a sql task and
INSERT INTO MyTable
SELECT Filename = ?,
LoadDate = GetDate()
In my for each loop I added a *.*txt qualifier... I`ve tested and works well... Got what I needed.

Printing FILE NAME and DATE PRINTED?

when i was on a mac i used to be able to have a default in the printer dialog so that every page printed showed the file name and the data printed. i would like to do this in the mac but i am guessing that this has to be done in either the specialized software dialog box or perhaps in a mac dialog box?
in any event, can anyone help me figure out where i might find a place to do this? i haveadobe acrobat but i wold also like to do it in something like Preview as well.
TIA

Consider using Find from the File menu or Spotlight to search for the document. In one of your previous posts, you stated that you name documents with a date and name. Then perhaps search for the name. Also, with your method of naming documents, if the document is a letter, wouldn't the date on the letter and the person to whom the letter is addressed to give clues to the filename and thus finding it on your computer?
this is a major organizational issue over here and customizing a template for all my various software should be unnecessary IMHO.
I do not know how many documents you deal with but I do know that there a many organizations that deal with billions of documents. In addition, if you share documents with others or others with you, there is not a filenaming method that works for everyone. People adapt to each other. A date in a filename could have several forms such as month-date-year or year-month-date, two digits or four digits for year and so on and so forth.
Are you saying it IS necessary to have this dual file type that has a Pages document which then prints a PDF?
No. Please re-read what I wrote and the Pages Help Center articles.
also, is there in fact a way to save a PDF back out as a Pages document?
Yes, re-read what I wrote (that which you quoted).
"Acrobat has the capability to save a PDF in other formats such as Microsoft Word, which can be opened in Pages. That said IMO, a separate Pages document for each "custom" letter/report would not be necessary."
alternatively i guess i could create a Pages TEMPLATE - that has a DATE in the header that automatically updates .../but/ i am realizing that this has the unfortunate consequence of having the DATE updated if i open the Pages document again
But that is what you stated you wanted because
...and try to remember to SAVE AS this document with another name with the original FILE NAME but a NEW DATE. this does not always work and sometimes i write over the original accidentally.
anyway, maybe the answer here is to create a Template for any new document type and simply use this template any time i need to create a PDF and then not save or delete the original Pages document but this seems a bit hairy and dangerous in terms of possibly losing a file if i forget to print to PDF or something.
You have redundant backups, yes?
It seems that your understanding of a template is different from what it actually is, its purpose and its use. If you have not already done so, try using one of the included Pages templates to create a document that you would reuse to get a better understanding of how it works and to help determine your workflow. What you wrote in the last post seems to be a lot of what ifs but not hands on experience with the software itself. My response was based on my experience of using many types of software and in particular to your questions, Pages and Acrobat. Perhaps you will find better responses in the Pages forum and for Acrobat there is a forum at the Adobe web site.
is there a lock file functionality in Pages in Mountain Lion or was this in Lion?!
Perhaps reviewing the tutorials for Pages or searching with Google would help answer many of your questions.
