"Others Tab" disabled in Expression Builder

I am tryng to create a very simple mapping with one source (Table) an Expresion Operator and a Target table. The problem I am facing is that the "Others Tab (Dropdown)" is coming as disabled in the Expression Builder. If any one can help me on this that will be really helpful for me !~
Thanks
Anish

As well as using the transformation route it is possible to just type whatever you want here (within the context of the expression operator and the mode in which it will be executed). If you want to refer to attributes of the operate use the Inputs tab.
It looks to be disabled in the expression operator but not in other operators such as filter, aggregator

The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
Cheers again..

Disable Asset Number Others Tab in Oracle Form by Personalization

Hi All,
I am new in oracle form, I hv a query How to Disable/Hide a Tab of Enterprise Asset Management->Asset Number-> Others Tab through personalization.
Which trigger is used with condition and which Actions perform. Plz help me ......
Thanks

Try the following
Use when-new-form-instance personalization and disable all fields in the OTHERS tab. Once all fields are disabled, I believe the tab gets disabled too.

If PDF document is open in any TAB, scrolling through touch pad in other TABs is disabled?

I have ACER Aspire 5740G, Firefox 5.0, Windows 7 Ultimate (X32), Adobe Acrobat X Pro. If some online "pdf" document is open in any of the TABs, The scrolling through touch pad in other tabs stop working however it remain active in the PDF document. After closing the pdf tab the scrolling starts to work normal.

I have the same problem and have had it since Firefox 5. I now have Firefox 6.0.2 and still have the problem.
Windows 7 x64, Synaptics Touchpad V7.2
If an Adobe PDF is open in a tab, touchpad scrolling only works in that tab. If any other tabs are open and user attempts to scroll, nothing will happen in the non-pdf tab, but the pdf will be scrolling. This can be very annoying because if you forget there is a pdf open and try to scroll, you will scroll the pdf out of place.

Using Decode in Expression Builder...

Hi everybody,
I want to use the DECODE function of SQL in an Expression Builder....
Of course this function does not exist in any of the transformation categories(arithmetic,character,e.t.c.) in the expression builder.
I have read in the OWB on-line help that in the Expression Builder there should be an 'Others' drop - down list in order to select any of the available SQL clauses - one of them is 'decode'...
The problem is that this drop - down list in the Expression Builder is disabled.....
How can I use this function anyway..????
Instead of using ... in the Expression Builder...
decode(<column_name>,'1','val_one','2','val_two') what can I use to do the same....???
As regards the problem that the drop-down list is disabled , what may be the cause..???
I use Microsoft XP machine , Oracle 10g (v.10.2) and OWB v.10.1.0.4
The documentation says....
"This allows you to deploy the DECODE functionality in all operating modes (setbased, rowbased, etc.) and transparently across Oracle database releases (8.1, 9.0 and 9.2)."
The above means that the cause is the incompatibility..????
Thanks , a lot
Simon

I am using OWB 9.2.0.8 and I can't reproduce the problem you are having with 10.1, but did you try just typing it into the expression?
Or, better yet, use CASE. The syntax is easier to read. I think OWB translates DECODEs to CASE when the SQL is generated.
(Case <column_name>
When '1' Then 'val_one'
When '2' Then 'val_two'
End)

How to user #{or} in expression builder

Dear All,
am using jdeveloper 11.1.1.3
I have an input text in an adf page , I need to disable this input text depending on two bindings with or operator--> if one of them is true then disable the input text...
If this possible and if yes then how ?
I noticed the Operands in the expression builder popup but i dont know how to use it
Regards,
Lama

You can use 'and' and 'or' instead of '&&' and '||', which is especially nice for '&&' as you would have to use '& amp ;& amp ;' (without spaces) if typed into source of the jspx directly.

Using expression builder

hi,
how can i use where condition at expression builder at admin tool, can you share sytax please?

Hi,
Whenever you click on the expression builder the syntax will be shown to you as soon as you click on the functions or any object you select.
In the logical table source, content tab, where clause, whatever condition you specify it gets reflected in the query when ever you pull the columns from the table.
For example-
If you are specifing the condition as
Region_name='Asia'
Then when ever you pull the columns from the table then the data will get restricted with 'Asia' data only.
You can als call functions, session variables.
Hope this helped/ answered.

Expression Builder: convert string to number

Hi all,
I'm having trouble building a field validation rule for bank account numbers.
The numbers have 12 positions, so I cannot use a string or text number.
The validation rule to be implemented is that the last two digits are calculated based on the first 10 (modulo 97).
However, when I use the Mid function to pick the first characters, I am unable to do any calculations on it. Apparently, the string to number conversion doesn't work (it should work when I read the manual, as it says that when using an operator between two data types, the second type is converted to the first (cf. example of 1234+abcd (should result in 1234 as to the manual))). So I tried '1*Mid(...)' or '0+Mid(...)'. Syntactically the expression builder accepts it and I can save it. BUT when I change the particular value on the screen, it gives me an SSO error (not the Field Validation error message I entered).
Why isn't there simply a function ToNumber (like ToChar)????? How could I workaround this?
Any input very welcome!
Frederik

Apparently, I was a bit confused when typing the first sentence, it should be:
The numbers have 12 positions, so I cannot use an integer or number data type, but have to use String.

I had about 17 tabs open on my browser. I clicked a link to open another one and when the tab opened the other tabs disappeared. What happened here?

I had 17 tabs open. When I clicked a link to open a new tab all the other tabs disappeared. I thought a new window had been opened instead, but this is not the case there is only one window open on my mozilla browser. If I try to close the window I get a message that says there are 26 tabs opened, I opened 9 more tabs. Can anybody tell me what is going on here or how I might figure this out?
Also, when I close a tab and try to reopen the tab using the right click menu, the 'undo closed tab' menu is disabled. What happened here? Can anybody tell me how to re-enable it?

I've seen some occasional glitches with windows losing the toolbar area, but not one that disturbing.
If you click and drag down on the 18th tab enough to tear it off into a new window (and possibly the same for the other newer tabs you opened), can you get the 17 tabs to re-appear in the first window? If not, I'm not sure there is a way to mend the window. If it's NOT a private browsing session, you might have to use Firefox > Exit (or File > Exit) and restore your session to get a working window. That won't work with a private window...
As a backstop, you might also right-click a tab in the window > Bookmark All Tabs before ending your session. (Because session cookies and other transient data are not preserved when you reload bookmarks, this isn't as effective as restoring a session. On the other hand, bookmark storage is less fragile than session data storage.)
Regarding Undo Close Tab, are the closed tabs listed on the History menu under Recently Closed Tabs? If so, that context menu item definitely should be enabled.

The "Other" tab on my HD keeps filling up even after i delete stuff from it

Hi! Just wanted to share my story to see if any of you knew about this and how to solve it, because it's driving me insane to the point where i want to throw mi macbook out the window.
So, i have a MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2011) with a 64GB HD. It's not a lot of space, but i really just use my computer for really basic stuff. I never had any problems with its storage capacity up until two months ago, when it got super slow. I got rid of a lot of files i had not used since college, but i began to notice that the "Other" tab on my HD kept taking up more and more space. This is still happening by the way, to the point, where i now get a message saying that my disk is full. I already tried everything: CCleaner (super useful the first time i used it; not so much the second time), i tried to use a time machine back-up (which showed results for two days but then it went back to where it was), and today i resorted to something I did not want to do: I MOVED MY ITUNES LIBRARY TO AN EXTERNAL HD. I was hopeful this would help me, after all, 10 GB of space suddenly freed up would give my computer a needed breath (working on it for the last week or so has been a nightmare: it's going super slow, it gets hot just by using Safari, etc). So i did this, i erased my music files from my hard drive and then i saw how those "10 GB" which i was supposed to get back in free space were now taken by the "Other" tab, which went from 33 GB to around 44 GB (See image - everything is in spanish but you get the point).
So...my question is: What else can i try? I tried to restore my computer to factory settings but it told me i needed at least 10 GB of free HD space. By the way, i'm new to Yosemite, having recently installed (like two weeks ago...right when things really took a turn for the worse). Any recommendations are welcomed!!!

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside a photo or iTunes library will corrupt the library. Changes to such a library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install the app in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
For ODS:
security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
For GP:
security execute-with-privileges /A*/GrandPerspective.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password.
The application window will open behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will eventually show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

How to use SQL OVER and PARTITION BY in OBIEE Expression Builder??

Hi there,
I want to create a new logical coulmn with the following SQL query.
SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C,Inventory Detail.D,MyDATE )/SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C )
How to use the OVER and PARTITION BY in OBIEE Expression Builder??
Thanks in Advance

hi bipin,
We cant use by in Expression builder(rpd) .But use the same formula like this in Fx of answers
SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C,Inventory Detail.D,MyDATE )/SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) >OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C )SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty by Detail,ITEM,Mydate)/SUM(qty by detail,item)
First check the numerator whether it was giving correct results or not then go with denominator
compare the results with sql that u have
Let me know if that does work
thanks,

When I use firefox and have several tabs open, I can only navigate between them by minimazing and maximazing FF in the taskbar and then clicking on the other tab. When I want to click on content on the website (say a link) I need to mini/maximize again.

If I want to switch to the other tab again, it only works if I do that again. It seems that I can either use the content of a website or use the functions of firefox, (like navigating between tabs, using favorites, typing in the address bar) but not at the same time. I always need to minimize and maximize the program by clicking on the task bar. This goes back and forth forever.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Checking for empty tags using expression builder for XPATH

I am creating several filters in a mediator for several parallel paths. I am trying to route the mediator to the correct DB adapter based on what tags are empty in the incoming XML. The XML has 1 required tag and 3 optional. So for the expression, I am using the expression builder to load the tag name then putting either [text()] or [not(text())] immediately after each tag with an "and" in between for the 3 optional elements. The problem I am having is they always return false. For example, if I enter a value for an optional tag and put [text()] after it, it evaluates to false. What is the correct way to check if an element has text or not?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Its not recognizing the getVariableData func... instead try this:
string-length(xpath)>0
ex: string-length($in.body/imp1:manoj/imp1:C1)>0
It works... Happy deploying ... :)

Close other tabs option freezes computer then tabs will not close at all

When I have multiple tabs open and I click the close other tabs button The computer freezes for about 1 minute and when it is unfrozen all the tabs are still there and when you click to close them nothing happens. This is a daily happening and extremely annoying. Sometimes it happens after i have had the browser open for a while and other times it will do it as soon as i open it.

Hey, these are the instructions on how to try safe mode. Please post back with your results.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
