Pulling information from .sparse

I was wondering if anyone could provide me with instructions or has knowledge of how to pull specific information from a full- time machine to Time Capsule backup. I have access to a backup that was finished six months ago and there are e-mails existing within the mail program that I would like to retrieve. However, I do not wish to replace any of the current programs, files that I have on my new hard drive. Is there a way for me to just recover the mail?
Thank you in advance for your time and knowledge.

Certainly -- that's what Time Machine is all about!
See #15 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum. There is special handling for Apple Mail, if that's what you were using. If you were using some other mail app, you'll need to know where to find it's data file(s).
If these aren't your current backups, you may need to manually mount the sparse bundle (by opening the Time Capsule via the Finder and double-clicking it), and the +*Browse ...+* option to access them. See #17 in the FAQ Tip.

How do I pull information from a master table to another table?

This may be quite simple, but I'm missing something. I want to pull information from my master table into a secondary table. In the Master Table in Column A, I have a list of teams ("Team 1" through "Team 12"), then in Columns B through D I have information for each assignment given to each team. I want to have a secondary table for each team that lists all of their assignments. So, this is what I want: if Column A says 'Team 1', then I want the secondary table to have the info from Columns B through D.
Again, I'm sure it's simple, but I just can't figure it out.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Mark,
1) But does this work if in the Master Table (which will be over 300 rows long) each team will show up 10-15 times over the course of the 300 rows randomly (hence the need to have sub-tables for each team...so it's easier for them to see what their tasks are).
Your fellow Numbers enthusiasts in this forum will need more information to help you with that. You are on the right track though with the idea of many tables. Therein lies the power of Numbers.
2) I'm a bit confused by the formula. With the "$A2" do I select the first column in the Master Table? And can you break down the second part of the formula? The "$A$2:$D$4,2,0" Why would you have A2 and D4 in the same formula? They are not in the same row. And what's the 2,0 at the end?
Breaking this question down:
With the "$A2" do I select the first column in the Master Table?
No. The $ keeps the reference to Column A absolute (it won't change to B then C as you Fill Right in the Team Task Table.
And can you break down the second part of the formula? The "$A$2:$D$4,2,0" Why would you have A2 and D4 in the same formula? They are not in the same row.
$A$2:$D$4 is the range of cells (a rectangle) where VLOOKUP will search (in my example) but not in your 300 row table!
And what's the 2,0 at the end?
The syntax of VLOOKUP is VLOOKUP(search-for, columns-range, return-column, close-match)
The 2,0 at the end means "return column" is 2 (the second column of the range) and 0 means "Exact Match" - it won't find a close match. After Fill Right you will need to edit the formula in each Column to change "return column" to 3, then 4, then ...
With a table selected, click on the Function Button in the Toolbar and choose Function Browser. I find that much more useful than the Help Menu. However (there is always a however in life) the Help Menu will show Numbers User Guide, and Formulas and Functions Help. Download them and read at your leisure. The first four chapters of the User Guide are well worth a read. Use other chapters as a reference when you need them.

Portal's ability to pull information from foreign data stores?

Besides gateways, what are other alternatives to allow Portal to pull
information from foreign data stores?

Outside of gateways, the main way is to write a web provider/portlet that directly access the data in the store and formats the result into portlet html.

Pull Information from the Web

Is there a way to set up a LiveCycle form, so that it will pull information directly from a web-based ordering system?
Our salesmen have to enter information into the on-line ordering system and then fill out the contractual documents. I would like to get it set up, so that the form will pull the customer information off of the ordering system, instead of the salesman having to re-enter the information. Is this possible? If so, what do I need to do to accomplish it?

Since the user is using an online ordering system, I expect that the info is saved to a database.
You will have three options to get the data from the database.
1) Create a DSN and link the form directly to the OLEDB database using the DSN.
2) Bind a schema to the form and generate the data from the DB in the form of XML and then render the PDF with the XML data. You ned to have workbench server software for this.
3) Develop a webservice to retrieve the data and in your form, create a dataconnection using the webservice to get the data.
For the options 1) and 3) above, you need to have the reader extensions server software to communicate with the database/ webservice.
Hope this give some ideas to you..
Thanks

Pulling information from an email and pasting it into the Subject line

i have email requests coming in from project managers that are automatically created after they fill out a form.
Outlook is set up with a rule on their machines to forward the request to my art dept.
Problem is that the emails always have the name of the form as the subject line.
the email generates project info within the body. Is there a way to set up a rule that will pull the info i want from the body of the email and amend the subject line with it?
Nick

I would like to use the
"PROJECT NAME
CUSTOMER REFERENCE OR SITE NAME"
(along with the information that would should have come after it)
to become the subject line.
I read from your previous post though that scripts should run after rules, so i would need to combine
the rule i am already using into the script correct?
I am a graphic designer, working on storefronts and fascias, i only dabble with outlook so thank you
for your time.

Question slide pulling information from different project

Hi all,
Not sure if this has happened to anyone before but I started a new project, imported a PPT deck and then started adding question slides. Except that my question slide has a caption from a previous project somehow embedded into it. I can't click on it, I can't delete it. It's even pulling the style of the 'Incomplete Caption'. I don't know how it could possibly be linked to the other project.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Okay here's what I've found: If I start a new project -> 'From PowerPoint' and I add question slides to the project, the error occurs across the board.
If I start the new project -> 'Blank Project' and 'insert' the exact same PPT deck and THEN add the question slides the error doesn't occur.
Not sure how or why that makes a difference, but for now I'm just happy to get back to work!!
Thanks Manoj for checking this out

Excel pulling information from another SpreadSheet (source) when (source) is closed

Hi,
I have been struggling with changing some fields in a SpreadSheet from COUNTIFS and SUMIFS to SUMPRODUCT as below:
=COUNTIFS('S:\Data\HQ\2014\Report.xlsx'!Table2[RFI Date],">="&B1,'S:\Data\HQ\2014\Report.xlsx'!Table2[RFI
Date],"<="&B2)
to
=SUMPRODUCT(('S:\Data\HQ\2014\Report.xlsx'!Table2[RFI Date]>=B1)*('S:\Data\HQ\2014\Report.xlsx'!Table2[RFI
Date]<=B2))
It still seems to require the source spreadsheet to be open.
Can somebody please advise is it possible to pull cell data from a closed source SpreadSheet without first opening it or using VBA?
Thanks,
Charles

Hi,
If a formula that contains the SUMIF, SUMIFS, COUNTIF, COUNTIFS or COUNTBLANK functions may return the "#VALUE!" error when it contains the function refers to cells in a closed workbook and the cells are calculated.
To work around this behavior, use a combination of the SUM and IF functions together in an array formula.
Example:
SUMIF:
Instead of using a formula that is similar to the following:
=SUMIF([Source]Sheet1!$A$1:$A$8,"a",[Source]Sheet1!$B$1:$B$8)
use the following formula:
=SUM(IF([Source]Sheet1!$A$1:$A$8="a",[Source]Sheet1!$B$1:$B$8,0))
COUNTIF:
Instead of using a formula that is similar to the following:
=COUNTIF([Source]Sheet1!$A$1:$A$8,"a")
use the following formula:
=SUM(IF([Source]Sheet1!$A$1:$A$8="a",1,0))

Pulling information from a table based on text input

Hello,
I was wondering if it was possible to find cells on another table based on the text input of one cell. For example, I have a 2nd table where I have all the properties of a monster, say a wolf. In the first table I want to enter different monsters multiple times but I don't want to copy and paste their properties in every single time, I just want it to draw the properties from the properties table whenever I type the monster id. If I type =Wolf Damage, Numbers immediately locates the correct number to plug in from the table, because the table axis are listed as Wolf and Damage. But I can't figure out how to make a text input part of a cell reference. If I type "Wolf" in B2, and then do the same thing =B2 Damage, it's obviously a sytax error. I've tried different combinations of =T(B2) Damage, but I feel like I'm missing the syntax to convert a string into an actual cell location.
Thank you,
ai48

Would be a good idea to download (thru the Help menu),
*_iWork Formulas And Functions User Guide_*
and read carefully the description of the function VLOOKUP.

Create a Slideshow that pulls information from a database

I want to create a slideshow banner that will showcase our products. The slideshow will contain the image of the product, the name, the price, the item code and the link when someone clicks on it. Each week we update the best sellers and it can be from 5 to 15 different products. Similar to what we have now in our website www.deiequipment.com which now is static, we want to animate it and rotate the products like a slideshow.
The problem we are encountering is that we have to manually update the slideshow content.
We would like to know if there is a way through scripting or catalyst to connect to a database and simply update all these fields automatically. So for example if the database has 5 items, automatically will pre-fill each field listed above and the slideshow will have 5 products.
If we update the database now with 10 products, to update automatically. That way we can create 1 slide show, the time it takes to rotate to the next product, and add simple button controls to the slide show for next and back that will simply go through the loaded items.
I tried to do a research on how to do it online but some takes me to scripting, others to catalyst dabases, but none are specific to what I need.
As a note, the image will just be an image holder that will be updated with the image field in the database that points to the URL location of the image.
Any help is greatly appreciated! thanks

Thank you for reply and assistance.
I was doing some testing on my side regarding the size and if I do a single box rotaing ad, it will be 180 W x 220 H
If I do the banner style it will be 540 W x 220 H that will have 3 boxes similar to this:
Where the images will rotate right to left every 10 seconds and repeat once they have reach the last item.
The image holders will be 100 x 125
The fields that will change will be:
Name - Ex. Clear, 6" Polycarbonate Bud Vases, 12 Pack
Price - Ex. $26.28
Brand - Ex. Cambro: BV6CW-135
Image - URL http://www.deiequipment.com/core/media/media.nl?id=4239&c=562544&h=d2979ac8391cf36bfcb3
I am using Flash Professional CS5, I am not too familiar with the actionscripts yet, but I have done programming in the past so I can do research on how to work with those.
Once again, thank you for your help!

How to pull data from Active Directory in ABAP (non-CUA approach)?

All,
We have a requirement to pull information from AD into a WAS 6.20 system.
I know there is the standard CUA/UME LDAP synchronization discussed at length in this forum but this in not what we are looking for. We would like to connect from an ABAP program (BAPI/RFC) to AD and pull a specific field and store it in a custom table.
I found one thread that describes how to do this with WebDynpro in Java, but this would be our last resort since we wouldn't be able to do that from the actual 6.20 WAS but would have to use another 2004s system which would extend the architecture of the current design.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
GS

Hi,
1. First configure the LDAP properties in transaction LDAP
2.You can use the functions LDAP_SYSTEMBIND and LDAP_SEARCH to retrieve the info you want
you can read <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/906061c5-176b-2910-5091-e23baa4e7038">this document</a> for more help

Pulling a Record set and then using a field within that record to pull additional information from the table.

I am pulling information based on the following "If" statement;
If({JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Category} = "L"
    and "cost" in {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Type}
    and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} > {@Prev Week}
    and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} <= {@Week 1})
then
{JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Units}
This works fine and I can print it on the report with other associated fields. One of those fields is a "Cost Code" field associated with the above conditions and date set (I am pulling for one pay period week). Of these transactions, each week different "cost codes" could be available.
One item I need to figure out another formula is associated with the cost codes that are pulled, but, I need to compare them to a different date range.
Here is how I get the cost codes that were used in a specific time frame;
If({JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Category} = "L"
    and "cost" in {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Type}
    and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} > {@Prev Week}
    and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} <= {@Week 1})
then
left({JCM_MASTER__COST_CODE.Cost_Code},6) & "001"
This gives me the cost codes used in that period but changes the last three digits to be "001" (xx-xx-001).
Now, I need to take that cost code, the xx-xx-001 and compare it to a completely different date range to get an "estimate" number.
My problem is that, because I need to use a date range in the original conditions, even after I truncate the cost code, for some reason, it stays associated with that date range.
How can I use a field from a group of records based on date, but, associate it with a competely different date range.
I hope this is clear, I am having a real hard time with this, I am fairly new, but have pretty normal working knowledge of basic formulas, etc...
Thanks, Mike

Need to pull vendor address information from PO

Hi Friends..
I am creating a shipper instructions smartform and need to display shippers address in the form.. For that purpose i need to pull the vendor address information from the PO...
Can some one tell me the data extraction logic involved here like what tables i need to access to get the required vendor address and flow of it...
Here the client is creating the PO and also sending the shippers instruction form when PO is created as far as i my understanding...
Thanks,
Kanthi..

Hi
When a PO is created, at that time you need to enter vendor number (LIFNR).
The details of different vendors are maintained in table LFA1.
The tables for PO are EKKO (header table) and EKPO (line item table).
But, if you want to capture the vendor address for printing, you only need to know the PO number (EBELN field). And, then you can proceed like:
Select LIFNR from EKKO into <yourDefinedVAR> where EBELN = XYZ.
Select <requiredAddressFields> from LFA1 into (....) where LIFNR = <yourDefinedVAR>.
So, finally, if you know the PO number, you can find rest of the things.

When creating a Change Request from within an Incident - Can Pull in the Information from the Inicdent?

My users are currently creating a lot of Change Requests, and we have templates. What they want to do is to pull in the relevant information from the Incident like title, description, attachments, affected user, etc. I have seen similar things where people
are changing an incident to a service request, and wondered if it were possible to do it from Incident to Change...

iPhoto puts them in the book in chronological order. So to get your photos from an album into an iPhoto book in the same order you will need to use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option and set them all to the same date with a 1 minute time difference between each.

OIM 11gR2 - Push/Pull account locked out information from Active Directory

Hi
At this moment, we are using the default reconciliation method from the Active Directory Connector in OIM 11G R2 to fetch incremental information from AD. This runs every 15 minutes.
However, the customer complains that the time from which the user gets himself locked out due to too many failed login attempts, until it shows up on the OIM account is too long. Worst case, this could be 15 minutes after the user gets himself locked out.
Do anyone have any tips on how we could either push this information from AD-side, or pull this information from OIM more often? Could we create a special scheduled job that just looks for Locked Accounts, and reconciles this each minute?
Best Regards
lloberg

Hi,
Sure, that's definitely possible. You can use the Active Directory cmdlets to retrieve this information. Here's an example of reading input from a text file (just usernames in the text file):
Get-Content .\userList.txt | ForEach {
Get-ADUser -Identity $_ -Properties EmailAddress
You can also read input from a CSV file quite easily. This example assumes a header of Username:
Import-Csv .\userList.csv | ForEach {
Get-ADUser -Identity $_.Username -Properties EmailAddress
Finally, here's a link to the Get-ADUser syntax:
