Saving a smart folder as an excel file or text file or whatever

I am new to the Mac. I have created a smart folder. I would like to copy the contents of the folder to incude the "Options" I have selected. IE, Date Created, Date Modified.
I want to save this information in a excel file - I want to be able to sort by Date Crated or Date Modified or File Name.
I figured out how to save just the file names - but I really could use this other information.
Any suggestions?

In Adobe Reader you can use File > Save As > Text...
When you want perform this task with a programm you must use Adobe Acrobat.

How can i send a folder containing multiple excel file to a mail address?

Key field is customer id. my requirement is to send the output of this report as excel file to a mail id according to customer id. suppose there are 100 customer id , so 100 excel sheet will go to the mail.

Is it possible ? if then how. i have used cl_bcs , cl_document_bcs and if_recipient_bcs these class and interface.
I need your suggestion.

Hi Sandipan,
You can use some of this classes: CL_ABAP_ZIP or CL_ABAP_GZIP
For example:
DATA: OBJ_ZIP TYPE REF TO CL_ABAP_ZIP,
            ZIP_FILE TYPE XSTRING.
CREATE OBJECT OBJ_ZIP.
OBJ_ZIP->ADD( NAME = <file_name>   CONTENT = CONTENT ).
OBJ_ZIP->ADD( NAME = <file_name2> CONTENT = CONTENT ).
ZIP_FILE = OBJ_ZIP->SAVE( ).
You can also visit this Otto Frost detailed post on GZIP:

I hope that helps.

Saving Log in SM35 as local excel file

Hi Experts,
I want to save the log which is generated for a LSMW as a local excel file. If I am trying through menu System->List->Save->List, it's coming in disable mode. Is there any way to save the log?
Thanks,
Krishan

Do you have the "Analyze erroneous transactions" option
available to you on your LSMW menu ? If you don't, switch it on using the "Personal Menu" button.
Execute this option (which allows you to choose which fields you would like to display from your LSMW load) and download the results into Excel. This option is good because it only shows you the failed
transactions whereas the LSMW log shows you all transactions and you need to filter through them to find the failed ones.
If this doesn't give you what you require,then just print the logs.When you press print, the system should take you to another screen, you can download this screen to Excel using the =>System =>List =>Save option, or you can press print and download the data from your spool file.
Hope this helps.

Hi.
How are the rights configured to be inherited? Could you do a "icacls <folder>" on each level and post it back.
Also worth considering is that this is a Linux Samba system, so it might not work as a regular windows system.

Win7 OS reinstalled: Can I cpy saved old PS folder to new Prog Files

I had to reinstall my Win 7 OS. w/Microsoft's help, the old system files were saved to windows.old, so I have the old PS 64 bit installation there. My question is, to save time, can I just move the old PS folder to Program Files in the new OS install, and reinstall Photoshop over it to "reintroduce" it to Windows? If so, do I also have to move files from other system folders? I was able to do that with Eudora, and when I moved my wonderfully quick & simple FTP upload program WS FTP into the reinstall, all I did was drop the old folder into place, and that was it!
Thanks!
Ron Hildebrand

One other thing... I don't know whether Windows 7 will do it, but Windows 8 automatically deletes a lot of stuff from under Windows.old after a few days. You might want to back that stuff up to another drive or at least rename it from Windows.old to something else if you'd like to keep it around for a while. I think it's ridiculous that Microsoft would think to delete those files at all, but I've seen it happen. In my case luckily I DID back up everything to an external USB drive.

Steps to save a Query/Report as Excel file in Share folder

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to schedule a BI report automatically on a daily basis and save it in a Sharepoint folder as a excel file. I have gone through the Forums but didnt get a clear idea on how to proceed this with. I read about RSCRM_BAPI transaction but i hope we need to do this manually to save the file each time. Also, in Broadcaster there are options only to send Email & save in Portal.
So, if anybody have idea on saving a Query/Report as excel file in a Share folder automatically, kindly help me in suggesting the steps to do this activity.

Hi
1. Create Three Floders in AL11 i.e. in Apllication Server. Eg Name it F1, F2 and F3.
2. First dump the .csv files into F1. (Name xyz.csv).
3. Then using UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , first check the file is there are not in F1, if yes then rename the file with date and time or date and transfer the files from F1 to F2 i.e xyz06032010.csv.
4. Then Create a small ABAP program to check the file in F2, if it is there then Trigger the Event, and using that event you execute teh PC.
5. Then using UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , transfer the files from F2 to F3 i.e xyz06032010.csv
6. Next day morning F1 and F2 are empty and F3 is having the backup files.
So use this method, I used the similar logic and it is working fine.
Timinings are importent i.e what time you need to dump the fule in F1 and what time you need to run UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , transfer the files from F1 to F2 and what time UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , transfer the files from F2 to F3.
OR
1. Create Two Floders in AL11 i.e. in Apllication Server. Eg Name it F1 and F2
2. First dump the .csv files into F1. (Name xyz.csv)
3. Then load the data using InfoPackage, through PC.
4. At the end of the load Attach a simple Program to Move the xyz.csv file from F1 to F2.
5. So next day the file will come to F1 and the it will load and at the end it will move to F2.
Else you can use simple one or two lines of UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script to move the file from F1 to F2 , once you load is over.
While moving the file from F1 to F2 you can append the date at the end of the file and then move to F2, it is use full for future reference.
See Blogs and Article, similar logic...

How do I make a Smart Folder for Applications last opened over a month ago?

Can anyone give me some pointers on generating a Spotlight saved search/Smart Folder under Leopard that will give me all applications NOT opened in a given time period (say one month)? I can do Kind:Application and Last Opened:before a given date (1 July 2009), but I don't believe this will update as time goes by? The date is absolute rather than relative, if you will?
Attempts at using some negation of the Last Opened:within 1 month (using a dropdown "Match None of the following rules") appears not to function as I would expect. From having a dig around in the .savedsearch it seems the trouble is attempting to negate a range rather than a fixed date?
The only thing I now suspect is that I need the .savedsearch query, which looks like this:
+<string>((((_kMDItemGroupId = 8) && ((kMDItemLastUsedDate < 268063200))))) && (true)</string>+
To perhaps instead use +$time.this_month(-1)+ in place of the hard coded date, but danged if I know how to do so. Now it's late, and I'm posting incoherently to the Apple Support Forums. Any enlightenment appreciated. (Forgive me if this is the wrong forum - it's a Leopard/Spotlight issue)

If you go into Edit > Preferences, then on the General tab make sure that Ringtones is ticked and it should then appear on the left-hand side of your iTunes.

Creation of a excel file

I am using my own context and for that I configure my server.xml file.
by writing
<Context path="/rcm" docBase="e:\rcm" reloadable="true" debug="0"/>
Now I am using JXL API to create excel file dynamically.
In my rcm folder there is a another folder named as excel file.
Now i want to create a excel file in that directory.
String file_name="/rcm/excel/"+"date_wise"+"-"+today+".xls";
workbook=Workbook.createWorkbook(new File(file_name));
But it can not create an excel file in that directory
So how can i create an excel file in that directory?

your missing the drive letter in the file path
change this:
String file_name="/rcm/excel/"+"date_wise"+"-"+today+".xls";to this:
String file_name="e:/rcm/excel/"+"date_wise"+"-"+today+".xls";

Smart folder with logical "or" rather than "and"?

Is it possible to create a smart folder that uses the logical "OR" rather than "AND" to determine the contents? For example, is it possible to create a smart folder that contains all files ending in ".tiff", ".pict", or ".png"?

figured it out. Hold the "option" key while hitting the "+" for a new criteria.

Smart Folder Based On Spotlight Comments

I'm trying to set up a smart folder to contain all files that I've made a given Spotlight comment for. When I start to set up a New Smart Folder and choose the Comment drop down and input the comment that I've tagged several files with (by using Command-I on the given files) it doesn't seem to take. Is this supposed to work? If not, what does the "Comment" drop down list item refer to in the New Smart Folder dialogue? Thanks for any clues about this.

Unfortunately this seems yet another case where one set of programmers in the Spotlight project were not talking to another set of programmers. When I selected "Comment:Contains http" I got one hit, which had nothing whatsoever to do with the many files I have that have their source URL in the Spotlight Comment field. I quickly discovered that it was because Comment actually issues this query:
(kMDItemComment = 'http*'cd) && (kMDItemContentType != com.apple.mail.emlx) && (kMDItemContentType != public.vcard)
When I used a metadata reader to examine one of my files that had the URL in the Spotlight Comment field I discovered that the comment is actually entered in this metadata field:
kMDItemFinderComment = "http://image.versiontracker.com"
So the metadata programmers have the tag as "kMDItemFinderComment" while the programmers for the search criteria assumed it was "kMDItemComment"--so the search won't work.
What I did was select Raw Query, and then entered this:
kMDItemFinderComment = "http://*"
The asterisk * is a wild card standing for "anything at all following http://"--this promptly found 23 files in my current Downloads folder. Using this as the Raw Query and selecting Computer to search:
kMDItemFinderComment = width*
Immediately found 7, 665 images on my three internal drives that have their dimensions given in the Comment box.

If i delete a file from a smart folder is it deleted from the hard drive?

I've got a late 2011 17" MacBook Pro with a 750 GB harddrive. I'm trying to free up space by deleting movie files. I spoke with tech support about this, and they suggested creating a smart folder of all my movie files in order to find them and delte them. I did this and deleted many files, but when I open system information to check on the amount of hard drive space, I'm still seeing the same amount of hard drive space dedicated to movies.
If I make a smart folder and delete files in that, am I really deleting them from my hard drive or just from the smart folder?

What files are stored automatically by Time Machine? I thought Time Machine pretty much saved everything on my hard drive to my external hard drive. If that is the case, wouldn't my music files and picture files be on Time Machine (via my external hard drive)?
Time Machine does backup almost all files on your hard drive, unless you have chosen to exclude them. There are a few exceptions, but nothing you should worry about. Your music and photos should be there, but Time Machine will not backup your iPhoto library if iPhoto is open.
Also, are the photos from iPhoto automatically stored on my external hard drive via Time Machine? If so, can I delete the pictures from iPhoto without deleting them from the external hard drive?
Yes to both questions, with the above cavat that Time Machine won't backup the library if iPhoto is open.
I notice that it takes iPhoto quite a while to load, and if deleting those photos would allow it to load quicker I would delete them (providing they would remain on the external hard drive.
I only have a few pictures in iPhoto, compared to my wife's 3,500+, and my iPhoto doesn't load appreciably faster that her's does even though I have a faster computer. In my opinion, it isn't worth the effort it would take to delete them for such a small gain.
You should have at least 2 complete backups to try to make sure you won't lose any data. Hard drives do fail and/or files can become corrupted. Time Machine can back up to more than one external hard drive or you can use a cloning program.

Saving Excel Files to CD-RW

For some years now I've been able to insert a CD-RW disc, double click on an Excel file stored there, open the file, edit the file, then simply resave the file under the same file name back onto the CD-RW disc.
Seemingly, suddenly I am no longer able to do that. Now when I double click on the Excel file, it opens as "Read Only". After I make my edits, the system wants me to save under a new file name because the file is "Read Only". When I do that, the system now "saves" the file to a temporary burn folder rather than writing the file to the disc. I then burn the file to the disc and a new file is added under the new name.
I could probably handle the extra step of burning the file to the CD-RW everytime but I simply want to overwrite the previous file, not fill up the disc with new files everytime.
How do I get back to inserting the disc, opening the file, editing the file and saving the file to the disc, then being able to repeat all of that but rewriting the file not creating a new one everytime? I'm sure that I am missing something fundamental in how writing to CD-RWs works.
Thank you.

Smart Folder in Finder displays incorrect list when using "File label" option.

Hello.
I created a Smart Folder in Finder, to display all files that have any color (label).
But have a problem just with one file, and although it has no Label, it keeps displaying that file.
Just to let you know:
1) File is not in Trash or hidden.
2) Checked several times the "information" of the file. Assign any color, then removed it.
3) File is synched with Dropbox v2.0.5
4) File is a Microsoft Excel and been working with it for a while with Office for Mac.
OS X 10.8.3

I'm having this problem, too. It with even show files with other color tags when filtering by another color. I tried changing the file color then changing it back to blank and it disappears temporarily, but if you view another folder and then come back the file pops back.
