Report on data in CSV File that is older than dates provided

Hello,
I have the following data in a csv file:
Server1 user1 8/12/2014 16:18
Server1 user2 3/21/2014 12:33
Server1 Admin 6/13/2013 15:34
Server2 user3 8/14/2014 7:34
Server2 Admin 11/14/2013 7:30
Server2 user4 8/12/2013 8:03
Server3 user5 8/14/2014 7:34
Server3 user1 7/14/2014 7:30
Server3 user3 6/12/2014 8:03
Server4 user5 8/14/2013 7:34
Server4 user2 6/12/2013 7:30
Server4 user3 2/12/2013 8:03
I'm hoping Powershell can help create csv reports of the following:
Report #1:
Create a CSV report of all Servers that have been logged into by users in the past 3 months and list in the report the users and times for each login in the past 3 months. Basically for this report it would be to include the relevant lines from
the input and not report on logins older than 3 months (so multiple lines of login per server is that is what the input file had).
For this report I would expect to see the following output:
Server1 user1 8/12/2014 16:18
Server2 user3 8/14/2014 7:34
Server3 user5 8/14/2014 7:34
Server3 user1 7/14/2014 7:30
Server3 user3 6/12/2014 8:03
Report #2:
List all Servers that haven't been logged into in the past 3 months. For this report I would expect to see only Server4. I don't need to see the list of users for this report if that's possible. So just a list of each server that has not
been logged into in the past 3 months.
Is this Something Powershell can do for me? Even if I have to create two scripts and run two scans to create two separate reports is fine. Where would I start with writing this type of script?
Thank you.

Yeah, each column in the CSV needs to have a descriptive header. Here's what I used to quickly test that example script I posted above:
loginDetails.csv:
Server,User,Date
Server1,user1,8/12/2014 16:18
Server1,user2,3/21/2014 12:33
Server1,Admin,6/13/2013 15:34
Server2,user3,8/14/2014 7:34
Server2,Admin,11/14/2013 7:30
Server2,user4,8/12/2013 8:03
Server3,user5,8/14/2014 7:34
Server3,user1,7/14/2014 7:30
Server3,user3,6/12/2014 8:03
Server4,user5,8/14/2013 7:34
Server4,user2,6/12/2013 7:30
Server4,user3,2/12/2013 8:03
Output of example from above:
Under 3 Months - Server1 user1 8/12/2014 16:18
Over 3 Months - Server1 user2 3/21/2014 12:33
Over 3 Months - Server1 Admin 6/13/2013 15:34
Under 3 Months - Server2 user3 8/14/2014 7:34
Over 3 Months - Server2 Admin 11/14/2013 7:30
Over 3 Months - Server2 user4 8/12/2013 8:03
Under 3 Months - Server3 user5 8/14/2014 7:34
Under 3 Months - Server3 user1 7/14/2014 7:30
Under 3 Months - Server3 user3 6/12/2014 8:03
Over 3 Months - Server4 user5 8/14/2013 7:34
Over 3 Months - Server4 user2 6/12/2013 7:30
Over 3 Months - Server4 user3 2/12/2013 8:03

Can an iPhone be updated with a backup file that is older than the newest available?

How can I convert a pdf file that's larger than 100MB to word

How can I convert a pdf file that's larger than 100MB to word?
I have just paid $20 to Adobe to get this facility but It won't work ,
as the pdf is larger than 100MB,
I actually believe that I have paid twice for adobe but I'll take this up with them,
in the meantilme,
do you have any suggestions, I really need this material in word urgently,
many thanks

If your files are this large, ExportPDF is the wrong tool for you. You need Adobe Acrobat, which runs locally and does not need to send your files to Adobe.

Why can i not see items on ical on my iphone that are older than 6 months ago?

I am not able to see entries on my iphone ical that are older than 6 months. am i do something wrong?

I could be wrong but I dont believe Itunes supports restoring your music from your ipod to a new PC, if you sync from the new pc you will likely lose the music on your ipod. If you search the internet there are third party software programs which will help you retrieve your music from your ipod if it is the only copy you now have. If the music was purchased from itunes you will be able to download it again.
Hope this helps

I just upgraded to 10.9. My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old. How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

Plett81,
I'm having the exact same problem. It does not seem to be a settings issue but rather some sort of "problem" with mac mail. My Exchange provider was able to setup my mailbox on a test machine running Mavericks and everything pulled in fine, however I cannot duplicate on my upgraded system.
I was able to get rebuild my mailbox and get the older messages within my Exchange inbox, however none of my folders and old messages outside of the Inbox are downloading/synching.
**NOTE** I contacted Apple SUpport and they told me to call my email provider. I called my email provider which did as described above and they don't see a problem. SO as suspected it has something to do with the Mavericks update but I'm not sure Apple is willing to help. I might try contacting them one more time and see.

How do I read from a text file that is longer than 65536 lines and write the data to an Excel spreadsheet and have the data write to a new column once the 65536 cells are filled in a column?

I have data that is in basic generic text file format that needs to be converted into Excel spreadsheet format. The data is much longer than 65536 lines, and in my code I haven't been able to figure out how to carry over the data into the next column. Currently the conversion is done manually and generates an Excel file that has a total of 30-40 full columns of data. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Darrick
Solved!
Go to Solution.

No need to use nested For loops. No need for any loop anyway. You just have to use a reshape array function. The picture below shows how to proceed.
However, there may be an issue if your element number is not a multiple of the number of columns : zero value elements will be added at the end of the last column in the generated 2D array. Now the issue depends on the way you intend store the data in the Excel spreadsheet : you could convert the data as strings, replace the last zero values with empty strings, and write the whole 2D array to a file (with the .xls extension ) using the write to spreadsheet function. Only one (minimal) problem : define the number of decimal digits to be used;
or you could write the numeric array directly to a true Excel spreadsheet, using either the NI report generation tools or ActiveX commands, then replace the last elements with empty strings.
We need more input from you to decide how to solve these last questions.

Read a CSV file that wont come in sequence

Hi,
I have a requirement to load the csv into DB using oracle forms or pl/sql code, but the problem is they are asking to load the csv file which will not come in sequence every time.
For Example:
File1:
col1     col2 col3 col4
file 2
col3 col2 col4 col1
file 3
col4 col2     col1 col3
Depending on the header we need to load the file,
Can we load like this or not?
If yes, Please help me on this.
Regards,
Chaitu.

SOLUTION 1:
Contact the person sending such file and tell that its just plain stupid. And ask why on earth would they send such file. Whatever the reason is ask them to fix it.
SOLUTION 2:
Here is an approach using External table.
In the SELECT query i have following assumptions
1. There are only 5 columns
2. Each column name has a number part that identifies its position.
3. The length of all the columns combined together does not exceed 4000 bytes.
Following is the first file.
karthick% cat file1.dat
col1,col2,col3,col4,col5
1,abc,xyz,200,300
2,def,sdf,300,20
Create an external table like this.
SQL> create table test_et
2 (
3     col varchar2(4000)
4 )
5 organization external
6 (
7     default directory karthickdir
8     access parameters
9     (
10        records delimited by newline
11        fields terminated by eof
12     )
13     location ('file1.dat')
14 );
Table created.
Run the following query.
SQL> with t
2 as
3 (
4 select rownum rno
5       , col
6    from test_et
7 )
8 select max(decode(col_no, 1, col)) col_1

25                         and prior rno = rno
26                         and prior dbms_random.value is not null
27                   ) t1
28              join (

30                           , level l
31                           , regexp_substr(col, '[^,]+', 1, level) col
32                        from t
33                       where rno = 1

37                         and prior dbms_random.value is not null
38                   ) t2
39                on t1.l = t2.l
40         )
41   group
42      by rno;
COL_1      COL_2      COL_3      COL_4      COL_5
1          abc        xyz        200        300
2          def        sdf        300        20
Now this is the second file with different column sequence.
karthick% cat file2.dat
col2,col3,col1,col5,col4
mno,gek,1,120,220

Alter the external table and add the second file.

Table altered.
Now run the same query.

How do I insert a CSV file that has blank fields? (Some fields need to be blank) CS4

Hi, this is the first time I have done a data merge in InDesign. I am trying to insert an address list that often has blank fields in it. The fields are blank since some fields are not relevent to some people (i.e. some of the people don't have cell phones others don't have email addresses) Therefore these people would obviously leave those field blank. The trouble is when I go to do a data merge I am told that the CSV file won't import because some fields are blank. I don't know why InDesign is telling me this, or course some fields are blank they are not relevent to that person. Can someone please tell me how I can get around this problem?

I tried doing another data merge and I can't seem to get the "remove blank lines" feature to work anymore.
Here is an image that has all the fields entered in:
Yet if a field is left blank in the InDesign doc I will get this:
Or if the blank field comes before another field on the same line I will get this:
This seems odd to me since I thought these problems were supposed to go away when I clicked this:
Do you know what might be going wrong? Here is what my data merge place holders look like if it is any help:

How do Import a csv file that contains strings

I have a file that contains numbers as US formmated $$$ such as $1,123,123,123 I have a perl script on one of our linux servers that creates the csv file as
"Total Dollars","$1,123,123,123","some other string","etc" but when I import the file into numbers
Unnamed Table
Average Price'
$160
686'
$222
482'
$114
820'
$188
062'
I cant find a setting anywhere that says to ignore commas inside a string. This works in most other applications.

I apologize but you wrote :
WALTER-MILANO-ITALY wrote:
You should be now able to import the file using ; as separator or if you prefer you can do again the change of ; with ,
It's not a matter of preferences. The OP can't import a file whose values are separated by semi-colons.
He must replace them by commas.
With your scheme :
Original datas
'Total Dollars','$1,123,123,123','some other string','etc'
after your step 1
'Total Dollars';'$1,123,123,123','some other string','etc'
after your step 2
'Total Dollars';'$1,123,123,123''some other string''etc'
and the datas are completly unusable
A possible scheme would be :
Original datas
'Total Dollars','$1,123,123,123','some other string','etc'
'Totals Dollars','$12,123,123,123’,’blahblah’,’etc'
after possible step 1 (replace ‘,’ by ",")
'Total Dollars";"$1,123,123,123";"some other string";"etc'
'Totals Dollars";"$12,123,123,123";"blahblah";"etc'
after possible step 2 (replace single ‘ by ")
"Total Dollars";"$1,123,123,123";"some other string";"etc"
"Totals Dollars";"$12,123,123,123";"blahblah";"etc"
after possible step 3 (replace ";" by ",")
"Total Dollars","$1,123,123,123","some other string","etc"
"Totals Dollars","$12,123,123,123","blahblah","etc"
This one may be imported by Numbers on thez OP’s machine.
I don't know if these changes may be done with Perl but I know that they are easy to do with AppleScript.
But honestly, if Perl is able to build a TAB separated values file, it would be more efficient.

Crystal Reports for Eclipse - Using .csv files?

I recently installed crystal reports for Eclipse and much of the basic CR functionality seems to be there, but then I added a .csv file as an ODA flat file data source and I can see it in my "Data Source Explorer", but can not seem to drag it into my report to actually use the data. Am I missing some basic step?
Thanks,
Chris

Hello Chris,
I recommend to post this query to the [Crystal Reports Design|SAP Crystal Reports; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to the creation and design of Crystal Report documents. This includes topics such as database connectivity, parameters and parameter prompting, report formulas, record selection formulas, charting, sorting, grouping, totaling, printing, and exporting but also installation and registering.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all Crystal Reports Design queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

Can any version of Excel save to a CSV file that is either UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded (unicode)?

Are there any versions of Excel (chinese, japanese, russian... 2003, 2007, 2010...) that can save CSV files in Unicode (either UTF-8 or UTF-16)?
If not, is the only solution to go with tab-delimited files (save as Unicode-text option)?

Hi Mark,
I have the same problem. Trying to save my CSV file in UTF8 encoding. After several hours in searching and trying this also in my VSTO Add-In I got nothing. Saving file as Unicode option in Excel creates file as TAB separated. Because I'd like to save the
file in my Add-In application, the best to do is (for my problem) saving file as unicode tab delimited and then replacing all tabs with commas in the file automatically.
I don't think there is a direct way to save CSV as unicode in Excel. And I don't understand why.

Need to Match Result in Report to Data Provider

Hi!
My report is using an Excel file to populate my "Payout" data provider. The data provider has the following values
Performance/Payment/Level
10 pt /5% /1
15 pt /7% /2
My report is calculating a performance of 12 pt which I am trying to match against the "Payout" data provider to get the Payment of 5%. Is this possible in DeskI and if so how?
Any help you can provide will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
If the number of payment levels is not to big you might concider to put them on one line in the excel file.
Like:
level 1 points | level 1 percentage | level 2 points | level 2 percentage
10 | 5 | 15 | 7
When you read that into BusinessObjects you can then assign the percentages by using the formula:
=If <performance> < <level 1 points> Then 0 Else If <performance> < <level 2 points> Then <level 1 percentage>
Else <level 2 percentage>

You can include Report from report designer using Report designer webitem in BI 7.0. But you can't create report designer report in WAD as DATA PROVIDER.

How to read a tiff file that has more than one page?

Hi,
I use JAI to read TIFF image and get the pixels from a raster object. A TIFF file can have more than one image in itself. The JAI doc from SUN only mentioned that we can get the number of IFD (image file directory) by using
getNumDirectories() function but no description about how to get different images separately out of one TIFF file. Does any one know how to do it or some example programs implementing such function? Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure if this helps, but here's a web page which talks about Image I/O:

For your problem, they have a sample solution which can read a specific page of a multi-page tiff file, so perhaps you could make a loop to read all of the pages:

Good luck!

Report Designer : Data Provider & Report Section .

Hi Experts ,
Is it a mandatory compulsion to insert data provider to create a formatted report in Report designer . can we not create it through report section.
thanks & regards ,
M.S

when you insert a data provider, it automatically creates a Report section. If you start with report section, then you still need to add data provider to it.
