Returned by function MAPIResolveNames

Hello all. We have a customer that is trying to export a report and email it. I will give you the rundown.
Windows 7
CR 9 SP 7
Latest Windows SP
Outlook 10
We are getting an error, ERROR 2147500037 RETURNED BY FUNCTION <MAPIRESOLVENAME>
I read the other threads and didn't seem to be anything in there for CR 9. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Correct. There is no fix for Cr 9 since it's been out of support for 5 years or so.
Only option is to upgrade to CR 2008 and apply Fix Pack 3.1. Microsoft deprecated simple MAPI API's in Window version 6.1 ( 7 and Server 2008 ) Cr had to update the export dll to use the Extended API set of instructions which is why there is no fix for old versions of CR that had no concept of the Extended set.
If they can't upgrade then only other option is to ask Microsoft to put the simple MAPI functionality back into all the Products they removed it from. They broke backward compatibility.
Thank you
Don

Error 2147500037 returned by function MAPIResolveName

I am getting this error when i am sending a mail
MAPI Destination
Error 2147500037 returned by function <MAPIResolveName>
its Crystal Report 8.5 with SP3
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
Windows LIve Mail
Please suggest

Upgrade to Crystal Reports 2008 SP 3 and install [Fix Pack 3.5|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006341722011E/cr2008fp35.exe] and then it supports Windows Office 2007 Extended MAPI API's. Microsoft deprecated the Simple MAPI API's in in Office 2007 and above.
Not supported in CR 8.5, it is 10 years old. Only other option is to ask Microsoft to add the simple MAPI API's back into their new Office Products that use MAPI.
Thank you

Procedure parameter of type returned by function

Hi there
I want to know if it's possible to pass a parameter to procedure of type returned by function
Something like that
pocedure test(x in varchar2
,y in my_function(param)
)

Definitely don't fullish yourself ;-)
AFAIK you cannot declare a variable based on the return type of a function.
Perhaps though you are looking for SUBTYPEs.

Display text (returned by function) after tabelar forom submit...

Hi guys...
Is there any possibility to display text returned by function after tabular form submit?
If yes please tell me how :)
With regards,
PsmakR

The value of the selected row's Display column ("Choice B", for example) is not stored in the field -- only the value of the selected row's Value column ("2") is. With the DDLB's item list loaded the form is able to translate "2" (Value) to "Choice B" (Display) so you see "Choice B". With the DDLB's item list empty there is no way to translate "2" to "Choice B" so you see "2".
If you do not want to save the DDLB's item list with the form you would need to preserve the selected row's Display column in another, possibly hidden, field then use that to display the translated Value.

Does Mail (for Lion) have a return receipt function?

i was wondering whether Mail (for Lion) have a return receipt function. I've seen many negative answers, but they're all from 2007 and earlier. How can I configure for some of my messages to have return receipts?

Yeah, I do have the home and student Office version, but the trial version for outlook included in the package does not include this feature. Is is available only with the "real"version?
I'm not sure there is a forum for Office for Mac Product Forums, I'd recommend posting there is no one here is able to help.

My profile was 'fixed' and I am trying to return to functionality

I had a bug on my laptop and the system experts removed my profile.
That got rid of all of my workspace information. I had a backup, so I started copying everything back. I am close to getting things back, but this isn't horeshoes!
I currently get this in my console,

My program isn't very large and it did work before. I have it below. The params are printing, so the program did read the input control file. It just can't find the database connection. I do have the log4j.properties file and it is in the correct place.
I think I just need to redo the JDBC connection.
Can somebody help me?
What I need to do is re-establish or check my database connection.

Application Builder: Can you create non-blocking, return-immediately functions in a dll?

I need to include a procedure in a dll that is non-blocking, i.e. it should return immediately after the procedure has been called, and not return after its processes are completed.
The procedure is a LabView 7.0 VI, and the dll is being created using the Application Builder. Currently the procedure completes its desired task and then returns, but I would like the function to return immediately. Thanks for your help!

Rischaard,
I don't know if that will work in a dll, however as an idea:
use the vi-server functions:
Your dll-procedure opens a OwnTreat.vi(wich will do the work) with vi-server, and run it without waiting for completion.
First thing OwnTreat.vi should do is opening (with vi-server) a reference to itself (So your caller dll can close without stopping the OwnTreat.vi)
Then OwnTreat.vi con do what YOU want. When finished close the self-reference
Maybe you need a short wait or a feedback to make sure that OwnTreat has opened his own reverence before your dll stops.

Sending pdf via email: pdf is not returned from function module

Hi all.
I am having trouble sending a pdf form as an attachment to an email.
After calling the funtion module that is creating the PDF, field pdf of the return parameter /1bcdwb/formoutput should be used to create the attachment.
But the field PDF is empty after calling the function module - only the field xml is given back.
What did I miss?
Thank you for your help and best regards, Kathrin!

Hi Kathrin,
See below for the example:
ls_outputparams-getpdf = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
     CHANGING
       ie_outputparams = ls_outputparams
     EXCEPTIONS
       cancel          = 1
       usage_error     = 2
       system_error    = 3
       internal_error = 4
       OTHERS          = 5.
If you setup the job like this then the pdf parameter will be filled with the XSTRING data for the generated PDF.

Using Column Name returned by function in SELECT statement

Hi
Output from my function (RETURN data type is VARCHAR2) is column name. I want to use it directly in my SELECT statement. Below is simplified example of this:
--- Function
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION simple RETURN varchar2 IS
BEGIN
RETURN ‘my_column’;
END simple;
--- Select
SELECT simple FROM my_table;
This does not work. It seems that output from function is passed in quotation i.e.
SELECT ‘my_column’ FROM my_table;
So the output from SELECT is a list of rows populated with values my_table:
COLUMN     simple
ROW1     my_column
ROW2     my_column
ROW3     my_column
Can please someone help me with this?

I'm not sure I got you right.
In standard SQL everything must be known at compile time. If not dynamic SQL is required, but is a costly operation (usually requires parsing before each execution) so it should better not be used when standard SQL can do it.
I provided a design time example where a function returns the column name from the given the table name and column id for a varchar2 column data type to make things simple. Then a query string is constructed and executed dynymically to return all column values of the chosen table_name.column_name.
SELECT simple FROM my_tableAt compile time the simple function return value is unknown (any varchar2 value would do) you already find out you get the (same) return value (i.e column name) for each table row => dynamic SQL needed to get the column values
The purpose of function would be to rename all columns for provided table.The table name would be provided, right? If yes => dynamic SQL
What is the function supposed to return the column name (where would the new name come from?), the column alias (which table column would be renamed to the new name?)
The user could use the new_column name as the column alias name submitting the query.
Is it possible to do this?Maybe () using a pipelined function (different data types - number,date, ... not cosidered yet) but your simple query;
<tt>SELECT simple FROM my_table</tt>
might look like:
<tt>select my_column_value new_column_name from table(get_column_value(table_name,column_name))</tt>
Sorry, no Database at hand to provide a specific example.

Using SYS_REFCURSOR returned from function in a WHERE clause

Hi All,
I have a plsql function that returns a SYS_REFCURSOR. Typically it will be three columns wide and 1 or more rows. I'd like to use it like:
SELECT *
FROM schema_name.table_name a
WHERE a.date_col BETWEEN trunc(add_months(SYSDATE,-12),'month') AND sysdate
AND ((a.col_a, a.col_b, a.col_c) IN (
open SYS_REFCURSOR returned by schema_name.package_name.function_name('x','y','z')
I've tried casting it to a table, but it complains about an invalid relational operator:
SELECT *
FROM schema_name.table_name a
WHERE a.date_col BETWEEN trunc(add_months(SYSDATE,-12),'month') AND sysdate
AND ((a.col_a, a.col_b, a.col_c) IN (TABLE(schema_name.package_name.function_name('x','y','z')))
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Thomas

Output of value returned from function in SELECT statement ??

Hi
I have created the below function
create or replace
FUNCTION jc_test
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS myrec VARCHAR2(270);
BEGIN
SELECT RPAD('*',270,'*')
INTO myrec
FROM DUAL ;
RETURN myrec;
END ;
and I executed the SELECT statement in Oracle SQL developer as a script
select
LENGTH(jc_test()) len
*,jc_test() rec*
from dual ;
I get exact output as below
LEN REC
270 ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
So here LEN is correctly shown as 270 characters but when I see the astrisk's (also appended with spaces ) its total length is 4000 characters
Can anyone give their thoughts on this.
Its fine if I run as normal, i mean not as a script.
Regards
jc

Hi,
So here LEN is correctly shown as 270 charactersYes, correct
but when I see the astrisk's (also appended with spaces ) its total length is 4000 charactersNo buts. It is not padded. That is just how it is displayed by your tool. In SQL*Plus this is controlled by LINESIZE and COLUMN

Catching collection returned by function in SQL statement

I am having a select query as : (I need all the values returned by the function in the select list)
select t1.col1,t2.col2, (select t.a,t.b,t.c from fn(t2.col3) t)
from
t1,t2
where t1.col1=t2.col2;
My function is like :
fn(t2.col3) returns a table in object format
Here I was able to select only one value from table returned by the funcation at a time.If I select all the values as above it was giving too many vales error.
Please any one help me in this

where t1.col1=t2.col2;Any specific reason for doing this? It adds an additional complexity to the SQL projection, and there's the additional costs of context switching to the PL/SQL engine (per row). All in all - not your typical approach and one that should have sound justification.
As for the basic method - the multiset() SQL function needs to be used to create a collection. Here's a basic example of the approach:

DATE type returned from function does not return the time component

Hi,
I'm dealing with a strange problem. I have a PL/SQL function (running on Oracle 8.1.4.7) which returns a DATE value. Like we all know the DATE datatype includes a date component and a time component.
The function I used for testing is like this:
FUNCTION ReturnDate return Date is
dReturn Date;
Begin
select sysdate into dReturn from dual;
return dReturn;
end ReturnDate;
When I call this function from .NET using ODP.NET the date value I get does not have the time component included only the day-month-year components.
This is a code-snippet that calls the function :
command.CommandText="Schema.ReturnDate";
command.CommandType=CommandType.StoredProcedure;
command.Parameters.Add("Return_Value",
OracleDbType.Date,0,ParameterDirection.ReturnValue);
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
I use the OracleDbType.Date type which I think is the most logical choice, because the type in the Database is after all DATE.
However this does not include the time componet. But if I change the OracleDbType.Date to OracleDbType.TimeStamp I get the time component. I'm not happy with this "hack" because I'm not sure what will happen when we upgrade our version of the Database to Oracle 9i which uses the new TimeStamp datatype.
Is this a bug that the OracleDbType.Date does not include the time component??

How do you examine the output Date value?
If it is from the string, then the time components will
not show because the NLS_DATE format in the client
machine does not contain the time components.
In American, the Date format is 'DD-MON-RR' by default whereas, the TimeStamp format is 'DD-MON-RR HH.MI.SSXFF AM' by default.
Can you take a look at the time components from the OracleDate by accessing the time properties, eg. OracleDate.Hour, OracleDate.Minute..etc to see if the time values are there?
Thanks
Martha

MULTIPLES RETURN IN FUNCTIONS?

Is it possible for a function to return more than one value @ a time.?

user4539121 wrote:
Is it possible for a function to return more than one value @ a time.?A function can only pass back a single return item, however that item may be a data structure containing many values.
There are also pipelined functions which act as tables when incorporated into SQL queries. These effectively open up a pipe and can return one return item after another until it chooses to stop. Example...
