Re-clarify--Urgent -- Can Apex create a dynamic menu list from table?

Hi All,
I am asked to investigate the possibility of using APEX to create a table data driven drop down menu, which means the menu list is dynimically generated from what is in the table. Eg. if there are 3 rows in the table, then the application will generate 3 list, if I add a row, then user will see 4 lists next time when the page is refreshed.
Such menu list will need to be a home page, which means it is the first page to be called in the URL. If such function needs to be implemented in PL/SQL procedure, can the procedure be called in Apex's URL?
The deadline is tomorrow and I have spent quite a bit of time but still have not had any clue. Could any one have such experience to point me a way to focus on please? Many thanks.

How can I create PDFs dynamically using data from a DB?

Hello,
I am using ATG Dynamo to serve up pages for a B2C medical eCommerce site. I would like the ability to create PDF copies of a customer's invoice starting with a generic PDF template, then populating the document with the invoice-specific data and serving it to the customer.
Anyone know where I should start?
Thanks,
Jeff

Two options.
1. Formated objects, which uses xml and xslt to create a pdf file. Apache has an open source FOP engine for Java. This is fairly complicated, but doable however the technology is relatively immature. Inexpensive, moderately steep learning curve given no prior experience.
2. Third party application, my company uses Document Sciences, j2ee solution. Expensive, small learning curve.

Can I create a dynamic (selectable) list

Hi, I'm in the process of building a wedding website and within that I'd like to get a page dedicated to an alternative gift list. The list takes the form of Bricks & Mortar and has items (bricks, concrete, windows etc.) to build a new extension.
Is there a way that I can build a page with the individual items listed alongside a box in which someone can enter a quantity of item/s to buy. Then if there were say 10 of that item it would show how many were left to buy after the purchase was completed?
For example: 1000 Bricks x 10 Someone choses to buy 1 batch of 1000 bricks leaving 9 batches left on te list.
Is this beyond the power of iWeb?

Can I create a dynamic number of inputs during runtime?

Can I create a dynamic number of inputs during runtime?
Oracle 11g
Application Express 4.0.2.00.06
Here is my problem:
We have a table that holds metadata about files (hardcopy or softcopy files).
We expect we may need more columns in the table at some point and don't want to modify the table or the application.
So in order to do this I would like to create:
A table called TBL_FILE with the columns:
TBL_FILE_ID               NUMBER                (This will be the primary key)
TBL_FILE_NAME          VARCHAR2(1000) (This will be the name of the file)
A second table will be called TBL_FILE_META with the columns:
TBL_META_ID               NUMBER               (This will be the primary key)
TBL_FILE_ID               NUMBER                (This will be the forign key to the file table)
TBL_META_COLUMN     VARCHAR2(30)     (This is what the column name would be if it existed in TBL_FILE)
TBL_META_VALUE          VARCHAR2(1000) (This is the value that record and the 'would be' column)
So a person can have as much meta data on the file with out having to add columns to the table.
The problem is how can I allow users to add as much data as they like with out having to re develop the page.
Other things to note is that we would like this to be on a single page.
I know how to add we can create multi-row inserts by using a SQL Query (updateable report),
however the TBL_META_VALUE column in the TBL_FILE_META will sometimes be a select list and other times a text box or number field.
So I don't see now a SQL Query (updateable report) would work for this and I can't create an array of page items at run time can I?
Any idea's how I could accomplish this? Is there a better way of doing this?
Also is there a term or a name for what I am doing by creating these 'virtual' columns in another table?
I found this method when looking at Oracles Workflow tables.

Creating Page Items dynamically is not available. You will have to create excess items and hide/show , etc. But you cannot change the Item Type. All in all, too many limitations in this approach.
>
Other things to note is that we would like this to be on a single page.
>
The 100 item limit will hit you if you go with extra item on page. With Tabular Form that should not be a limitation, unless you are exceeding the 50 item limit of APEX_APPLICATION.G_Fnn items, and the 60 column limitation of Report region with "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" of Dynamic region.

If the type if item is variable it only means you need a way to store the item type. Meta Data of the Meta Data.

>
Yes, you can do it. Updatable report/ Tabular Form query can be constructed from the Meta Data using PL/SQL Function Returning SQL Query . It will be a bit of coding in PL/SQL where you use the Meta Data and the Meta Data of the Meta Data to piece together your SELECT with the right APEX_ITEMs. It might have a performance penalty associated with it, but will not be a serious degradation.

Can I create a dynamic cursor in a program unit on oracle form....

Hello folks,
can I create a dynamic cursor on client side ( in a program unit on the oracle form), is it possible, I Know how to create it on server side using Ref cursor, but on client side i got this message (can't be created on client side or something like that).... please if someone can help

> select count(*) from t_comsis
<p>But when you put that select string into a varchar2 variable, it won't compile. Which makes it hard to create anything "dynamic".
<p>In Forms, you can create and populate a record group dynamically, which is ok as long as your select will not retrieve too many (more than several hundred) rows.
<p>Or, your other option is to use the Forms Exec_SQL dynamic sql package.

How to create Exchange dynamic distribution list using multivalue extension custom attribute

I am trying to create a dynamic distribution list using an ExtensionCustomAttribute. I am in hybrid mode with Exchange 2013. The syntax I have is this:
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "DG_NH" -RecipientFilter {(ExtensionCustomAttribute2 -eq 'NH')}
This works correctly on-prem. But hosted always results in an empty list. I can see in dirsync the attribute is in the hosted environment, but for whatever reason, the distribution group gets created but always come up null.
If I create a group looking at the single valued attributes, such as CustomAttribute6 -eq 'Y', it works correctly on-prem and hosted.
If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it.

I don't think I provided enough information about the problem. Let me add some and see if it makes sense.
I have an Exchange 2013 on-premise configured in hybrid mode with Office365. For testing purposes, I have 2 users, Joe and Steve, one with the mailbox on-prem, and the other with the mailbox in the cloud. Each of them has CustomAttribute6 = 'Y'
and ExtensionCustomAttribute2 = 'NH'. Dirsync shows these users and these attributes are synced between on-prem and cloud.
Using on-prem Exchange powershell, I run the following command:
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "DG_NH" -RecipientFilter {((RecipientType -eq UserMailBox) -or (RecipientType -eq MailUser) -and (CustomAttribute6 -eq 'Y')}
This correctly finds the 2 users when I query for them as follows:
$DDG = Get-DynamicDistributionGroup DG_NH
Get-Recipient -RecipientPreviewFilter $DDG.RecipientFilter | FT alias
So I then delete this DG, and recreate it this time looking at the multi-value attribute ExtensionCustomAttribute2, as follows:
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "DG_NH" -RecipientFilter {((RecipientType -eq UserMailBox) -or (RecipientType -eq MailUser) -and (ExtensionCustomAttribute2 -eq 'NH')}
Replaying the query above, I can see this also works fine and finds my two users.
Next I open a new powershell and connect to Office 365 and repeat the process there.
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "DG_NH" -RecipientFilter {((RecipientType -eq UserMailBox) -or (RecipientType -eq MailUser) -and (CustomAttribute6 -eq 'Y')}
This correctly finds the 2 users when I query for them.
And then delete the group and recreate it using the multi-value attribute:
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "DG_NH" -RecipientFilter {((RecipientType -eq UserMailBox) -or (RecipientType -eq MailUser) -and (ExtensionCustomAttribute2 -eq 'NH')}
When I run the query this time it produces no result. Every test I try results in an empty group if I am using a multi-valued attribute in the search criteria in the cloud. If I use single valued attribute, it works fine.
I really need to be able to get multi-valued DDG's working in the cloud. If anyone has done this and has any suggestions, I would appreciate seeing what you did. And if this is the wrong forum to port this, if you can point me to a more suitable
forum I will report there.
Thanks,
Richard

How to create a dynamic entry list for an input field in VC(ce 7.1)

Hello all,
I have an Input field, i need to create a Dynamic Entry List for it in VC(ce 7.1).
How can this be done.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Santhosh,
You can define Dynamic entry list for Drop down list and combo box but not for input field.
[Refer this|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/2a/28249060dd4dbc872f6266f4557364/frameset.htm] for defining entry list.
Let me know if it helped.

Is it possible to create a dynamic dispatch VI from parent VI as a template

Hi all,
I'm new to LVOOP and wondering if it's possible to create a dynamic dispatch VI from the parent VI as a template.
For example:
I've got a Class-method in the parent class. All child-classes use this method except of one child, which needs a little tweak on this VI.
So I need to overload the VI in the child class.
When I choose "New -> New Dynamic Dispatch VI" I get an VI based on a template
(As described by Darren Nattinger here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Darren-s-Weekly-Nugget-07-07-2010/m-p/1172483/highlight/true#M510414 )
Is it possible to get a copy of the parent VI instead that I can tweak ?
Thanks you in advance!
Best regards,
Balze

An over-ride VI is not that special.
The input and output classe must be "Dynamic".
The icon connectors have to be the same.
The Over-ride VI must have the same name as the parent and be a member of the child class.
So Save-as add to project but not to class.
Move to child class.
Rename.

How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ? Upper part with the image , lower part with a free space in order to take notes for students during presentation or course.
Thanks.

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted. Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file? Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb again?

Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted. Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file? Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb from the App Store again? My problem is my 4Gb/month allowance on a 12 month contract. I cannot purchase a data block from my ISP and although my speed is theoretically slowed to 64k after reaching my 4Gb, it actually ceases to download in reality.

HI tasclix, it depends what you mean by an OS X boot drive.
If you want a recovery disk from which you can reinstall (by re-downloading) or recover from a time machine backup, then nbar is correct.
If, however, you want to boot and run the OS X installer from the USB drive (so that you don't need to download again), then you will need a copy of "Install OS X Mavericks.app"; see this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5856
Before downloading again, search your system to see if the installer is still there - it's usually in the /Applications folder unless it has been deleted, but check your whole system for it anyway, you never know, you might still have it somewhere.

Certain Numbers templets allow you to drag and drop contacts to populate cell data, how can I create that functionality in my own tables?

Certain Numbers templets allow you to drag and drop contacts to populate cell data, how can I create that functionality in my own tables?

If you haven't come across the workarounds thread you may find helpful tips there on this and other ways to work with Numbers 3.
ronniefromcalifornia discovered how to bring contacts into Numbers 3. As described in this post:
"Open Contacts
Select all the cards you want
Copy
In Numbers, in a table, select cell A1
Paste
Boom. Works great. Even brought in the pictures. Cool."
So instead of drag and drop, just select in Contacts, copy, and paste into Numbers

Can't create a Content Type List Item on Visual Studio 2010

Can't create a Content
Type List Item on Visual Studio 2010

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to select the specific content type in new item form.
This is a default behavior. The "Add new item" link uses the default content type and does not display a dropdown list to change that value. This behavior is hard coded into the control and can't be changed.
Here are some similar threads for your reference:

How can one create a paint color generated from a photo using Kuler?

The best way to remove a pattern is to use a Fast Fourier Transform. There's a free plugin (as well as examples and instructions) here:
http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6795661/4N6site/improc/fftplugin/examples.htm
Using the plugin requires editing the individual colour channels, which PSE does not natively allow. You'll need the reasonably-priced Elements+ addin:

Here's a crop at 100% of the result I got:
The pattern is much reduced. With some experimenting, you can probably do a little better.
