Pages: No PrintDate?
I am just testing iWork '08 and hope to replace MS Office soon. One question is quite essential for me:
In WORD documents I am used to set dates as date of printing ("Insert > Field > Date > PrintDate"). This comes very handy, because I usually want to have the date of the day when the document was printed shown in my letters. As a secondary effect, when opening a document later, I see exactly when the document has been created or printed, because the print date remains in the document unchanged (until I would print it out again).
In PAGES I do see how to insert a date field ("Insert > Date/Time"), but I'm only able to adjust this to the actual date. Does Pages not offer any possibility to insert a PrintDate?
You have simply opened a blank Layout template, just go back to the Template Chooser and open a blank Word Processing template.

Happily, as far as I know, nobody wrote that Pages is offering all the features available in Word.
You met one of the missing one.
If you wish to insert a fixed date, the response was given several times and a simple search in the existing threads would have point to the thread.
The first returned thread contains the response which is:
use the free WordService from the site:

I want a 'date', on front page, to be reflected on all my headers automatically.
I have a document which has a date which is changed manually with every revision. Now I want that date to be reflected on headers automatically without manually editing header every time.
You have a number of options. If you use a:
• DATE field, that will display the current date.
• CREATEDATE field, that will display the date on which the file was created, or last saved via Save As.
• SAVEDATE field, that will display the date on which the file was last saved.
• PRINTDATE field, that will display the date on which the file was last printed.
These fields can all be inserted via Insert|Quick Parts|Field. Of the above, I'd be inclined to use the CREATEDATE field, saving the document via Save As whenever a revision is ready for release, then releasing it. For publication purposes, though, I'd recommend
the PDF format, as that ensures the users won't inadvertently change the date via their own Save As.
Note: If you prefer to type the date on the front page, you can apply a unique Style to it, then reference that Style via a STYLEREF field in the header. This field, too, can be inserted via Insert|Quick Parts|Field.

In Pages, how to insert a PRINT-DATE field into a doc.?
Want to insert a field that will show the date of the doc's printing.
In MS Word, this is known as 'insert print date'.
How to do so in Pages? Thanks.You can define placeholder text in Pages v5.5.2 in any of the six header/footer sections. Think of it as a a field code that when you click on it the text you enter replaces the placeholder text using the same style. By example, I placed a combination of text and placeholder text in the lower left footer segment.
The text and the brackets were selected, and then Format ▸ Advanced ▸ Define as Placeholder Text. Also, because it is in the footer, it is replicated throughout the document. Although you could Insert > Date/Time into this placeholder text, automation may be preferred. I have chosen to use the same date/time style as MS Word uses in its print date field code. You can only change placeholder text programmatically with Pages and AppleScript on Yosemite. Once I run the AppleScript, all placeholder tags are replaced as shown in this image:
You could make this an Automator Service (e.g. run AppleScript action with no input, and output replacement is checked). One could assign a keyboard shortcut to this service too. One click printed date stamp and document sent to default printer.
The AppleScript (Yosemite only).
property tagStr : "[print-date]"
--- used for testing ---
-- set f to POSIX path of ((path to desktop) as text) & "arg.pages"
-- set hf to POSIX file f as alias
set printDate to "" as text
set theTags to {}
tell application "Pages"
activate
-- open hf
tell front document
set theTags to the tag of every placeholder text whose tag is equal to tagStr
-- Word print-date field code uses this 12-hour date/time format as mm/dd/YY 00:00 AM/PM
set printDate to do shell script ("/bin/date +'%D %l:%M %p'") as text
repeat with i from 1 to count of theseTags
set thisTag to item i of theseTags
set (every placeholder text whose tag is thisTag) to printDate
end repeat
-- use your own System Preferences printer name string

Open Pages from Discoverer Report
Hi,
Is there a way to invoke a webpage or even better, an oracle function (that links to forms or self-service) from a discoverer report row ?
for example, I want a report for employees where the person looking at the report will click on the employee name and is taken straight to the person details page for that employee.
Regards.Hi,
You can create a link to a form function using fnd_run_function.get_run_function_url. You can create a calculation either in a view or using a calculated item in the EUL (you will have to map the get_run_function_url in the EUL to do this). You then set the content type property of the EUL item to FILE so that when the item is selected in the workbook it appears as a hyperlink.
Most forms in apps except parameters so that you can pass the employee id to the form and the form will open up with the employee record. For example, if you are using a seed HR person form you create a calculation,
fnd_run_function.get_run_function_url(3494 -- PERWSHRG-404
,800 -- HR
,fnd_global.RESP_ID -- caller's responsibility
,0 -- Business Group
, -- Parameters
'P_PERSON_ID='||TO_CHAR(person_id, 'fm9999999999999')||
' P_EFFECTIVE_DATE='||TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYY/MM/DD'))Rod West -

In Pages 09 I could add a filename to the footer. If I saved a document with a new filename, this would then be automatically updated in the footer in the new document. I cannot find out how to update the Filename in pages 5, other than doing it manually.
Is this yet another example of the new iWork being dumbed down? Also missing is the ability to use keyboard shortcuts for formatting, and a lot of the Inspector features.
Do I have to go back to Pages 09 for all the missing features?Feature removed in Pages 5.
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Trash/archive Pages 5 after Exporting any Pages 5 docs to Pages '09 files.
Then rate/review Pages 5 in the App Store.

Can not refresh page after save properly(When not saving master record)
I am using jdeveloper 11g R2 (11.1.2.3) JSF Facelet
In some use case I have Address as master table and Person as detail table
For some business reason I need to don't save same addresses
eg:
If +1 Test St+ is in database already and new user coming and adding this address with new person
I need to use the row in database not creating a new address
I do saving in doDML method of Address with some hashing algorithm and it is fine
My problem is that I can not refresh page after save properly
User coming to page think Adding a new address and a new person but in fact no new
address added because of business I describe above
Any ideas how I can implement this?
Appreciate that
Regards
MohsenHi,
from your description it is not clear why the page doesn't refresh. It could be a problem in your implementation code - who knows. What if you perform the address check on a command button that actually submits the new address? If the check returns true (address exists) you would call row.refresh(forget new row); and re-query the view object so the address coming from the database is displayed. If you wanted to use the doDML then yuou need to be aware that doDML doesn't help removing the row the user created. It just ignores the database update but the entity is still around, which in my suggested solution wont be the case.

A couple months ago, I started having issues with Pages '08. It would lock up while I was typing, or even something as simple as scrolling the page down. All I would get was the little rainbow wheel and a locked up document. At first I thought it was just the one file I was working on, but now it happens all the time. It locks up so bad sometimes that it forces a restart of the computer. No other programs are having this issue. Should i just reinstall Pages '08 from the disc or what. Cause this has made my main wordprocessing program completely useless. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8
Update:
Well I think I got it figured out. For some reason, the spell checker was causing the problem. I've always had it set to "Check spelling as you type", but for some reason that is now causing Pages to lock up. So my work around is to simply turn off the "Check Spelling as you type" option, and now there are no more lock ups. -
In my ITS page I have the following code:
`if (area == 3)`
<input type="image" name="~OkCode=GETPRODUCTS_RES" src="`mimeURL()`/tab_residential_on.gif" width="131" height="36" border=0 />
`else`
<input type="image" name="~OkCode=GETPRODUCTS_RES" src="`mimeURL()`/tab_residential_off.gif" width="131" height="36" border=0 />
`end`
This works fine but I want to remove the literal "3" and replace it with a variable g_res. So I change the code to read:
`if (area == g_res)`
This doesn't work as I think it's still checking the literal value of "g_res" not the value in the variable. I've checked several HTML code forums but this seems too simple a problem for them to solve. I'm a HTML novice so any pointers would be great.
Regards,
GillHi,
Of course this is possible. The line
if (area == g_res)
should work as expected.
Maybe you have noticed that you are not writing plain HTML but mixing HTML and a scripting language. The scripting language you are using here is called HTMLBusiness. It's a language only available on SAP ITS, so you won't find anything about it in ordinary HTML forums. Check the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/5f/1fb05e4aee11d189740000e8322d00/frameset.htm">HTML Business reference</a> for further information.

I have deployed 2 different web application on IIS 7.5 running on Windows Server 2008 R2 but on different port numbers i.e. one application deployed on port no. 1776 and another on 8091. I want to rewrite URL in such a way that if i hit any page of first
application such as default.aspx then it will be redirected to particular page of another application along with some changes in url.
Example: if i access any page from first application like:
http://g2wv126rbsc:1776/sites/main/commercial/commercial-solutions/financing/default1.aspx
then it should redirect to specific page of another application along with some changes in url:
http://g2wv126rbsc:8091/main/commercial/commercial-solutions/financing/default2.aspx
Note: In above mentioned url, also removed "sites".
I tried to create a inbound rule through URL Rewrite module (installed on IIS 7.5) by selecting Action as "Rewrite" but didn't find any success.
I need some examples if anyone has come across same kind of issue.
Thanks in advance.Please post ASP.NET questions in the ASP.NET forums (http://forums.asp.net ).

Partner application configuration is missing error on SSO login page
We have APEX 3.1.2 setup as a partner application and an application within APEX setup to use SSO for authentication. Following a link to the APEX application redirects to the Single Sign-On page, as it should, but it also shows "Error: The partner application configuration is missing or expired." I type in my password and username, click the Login button, and (if I entered my username and password correctly, of course!) then the APEX application is shown. So, I cannot figure out why we're getting the no_papp_err error and I have not found any solutions to that issue on Metalink or anywhere else on the Internet. Any ideas? I'm concerned that we have a misconfiguration somewhere that is causing this error and will affect any other partner application we setup in the future.
We're on Oracle Portal 10.1.4, SSO 10.1.2, and SSL is setup on both infra and mid tiers.Did you try checking the partner application entries on the SSO-login server page?
please login as orcladmin or some other user with membership in, i beleive, iasadmins group. verify that for this partner application, what you see here corresponds to the application URL. it looks like your login page call may have issues. so check for login url too.
also check the ORASSO.WWSSO_LS_CONFIGURATION_INFO$ for entries corresponding to Apex application. -

Header not getting displayed in the next page in the second table
Dear Experts ,
I have a query regarding Header not getting displayed in the next page in the second table of the main window. .Let me elobrate the issue.
I have a smartform in which there are 2 tables TABLE 1 and TABLE 2 in the smartform MAIN window. TABLE 1 is for pending PO and TABLE 2 is for future delivery date P O separated by text in between.
Now the header for both the tables and the data are getting displayed properly if the total output is in only one page. But If there are more entries in the TABLE 1 the Header for the TABLE 2 is not getting displayed. Header for TABLE 1 yet gets displayed properly in the next page in case of more entries.
Only issue is that Header for TABLE 2 is not getting displayed in second page but it gets displayed if the entries are less in TABLE 1 and the total output is in one page .
Please provide a elobrate solution on this problem as the requirement is urgent.
Thanks,
