Script to enforce IP address format

Greetings,
In Acrobat XI Pro, in order to ensure the user enters a properly formatted IP address, I have the following JavaScript called from a text field's properties, Format tab using a custom format script.
// Validate IPv4 address format
var ipAdr = getField("PHYSICAL IP ADDRESS");
if (event.value!=null && event.value!="") {
var re = /^\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}$/;
if (re.test(ipAdr.value) == false) {
app.alert("Please enter a valid IPv4 address");
event.target.setFocus();
This appears to be working, though I am wondering:
(1) Is it ok to not have an else clause?
(2) Can the RegEx be improved?
The RegEx is trying to enforce the standard IPv4 dotted decimal notation that does not include the subnet mask.
Thanks!

Many thanks Gilad, just one quick one...
Any thoughts on the 'if' with no 'else'? Or is it just a subjective preference?

Address Book - Changing the address format?

A couple of years ago I imported all my old contacts into address book. I've now discovered that I had the address format set to USA in preferences and I'm a UK user. I've since changed the preference to UK but it this only affects new addresses that I add.
Is there a way to change those old addresses to UK format? I've tried exporting a V card and re-importing but it doesn't change.
TIA, Steve

Hi Steve, and a warm welcome to the forums!

Mass-change address format in address book

Hi Guys,
I've recently changed from pc to mac (yay) and have imported all my contacts into address book.
I have several hundred contacts that have mailing address in the US, and several hundred that have mailing addresses in the Netherlands and some in other parts of the world.
I'd like to change the address formats to the appropriate ones, but so far have only been figure out how to do that one at a time, or all together.
I can use smart groups to group the addresses I want to change together, but after that I'm stuck.
Is there a way to change the address format from selected cards? or will I have to do this one at a time?
Thanks for your help.

Here is an Applescript you can run that will do what you want:
property CountryCode : {missing value:"us", USA:"us", Netherlands:"nl", UK:"uk"}
tell application "Address Book"
repeat with aPerson in people
set theAddresses to addresses of aPerson
if theAddresses is not {} then
repeat with anAddress in theAddresses
set theCountry to country of anAddress
set the country code of anAddress to my getCC(theCountry)
end repeat
end if
end repeat
end tell
on getCC(aCountry)
set s to "on run {CountryCode}" & return
set s to s & "get " & aCountry & " of CountryCode" & return
set s to s & "end"
try
run script s with parameters {CountryCode}
on error
return text returned of (display dialog aCountry & " not found. Enter a country code:" default answer "us" buttons {"Ok"})
end try
end getCC
In the property statement, change the "us" for missing value to your default country code. Add any other countries you have to the CountryCode list. The first part, before the colon, is the Name of the country as found in your address book. The second part is the ISO country code (two characters). I found a list of ISO country codes here. That list was upper case, but the address book uses lower. If you have variants of the same country name, you can just add them all to the list.
Note: the name of the country cannot be more than one word--I didn't want to work out another way of getting codes. However, if the script runs across a country name that is not in the list, it will ask you to enter the correct value. You can change the "us" in the getCC handler to the country code of multi-name countries in your address book to make it the default answer.
Need help with Applescript? Just copy the code into a new Script Editor document and hit the Run (green right arrow) button. It will open the Address Book and start looking through your contacts, finding ones with addresses, and setting the country code to what you say it should be in the property CountryCode list.
If it fails with any other errors, check the Event Log History window which may give you a clue as to what was wrong with the address it failed on. You may be able to fix the address so it continues. Otherwise, post back with the error and I may be able to figure it out.

Problem changing address format

I live in Japan, and therefore have lots of Japanese addresses. When I imported these addresses into Address book, it automatically put them in 'Japan' address format (although I have UK format specified in the preferences). Japan format is more or less the opposite of UK or USA format, with post code and city first, and street address last.
However, Japan format is only used if the address is in Japanese script. Otherwise the addresses are written in UK format. Therefore, I set about changing the formats. However, when I change the format, Address Book automatically puts the words 'United Kingdom' in the country field. I then have to change it to 'Japan'. As I have about a thousand addresses, this is pretty infuriating.
Is there anyway to change this behaviour, so that the country is not automatically inserted?

Unfortunately you may have to clear out the country field before changing the format.

Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

If users are in a folder for deactivated users and disabled users in Active Directory, and been there for 6 moths do: change email address in exchange to existing email address.old
Anyone have suggestions on how I can go about it?

What is this "box"? What is this "folder" you're asking about? You'll likely get a better answer if you use standard terminology.

Can I set the address format for individual contacts?

I have some foreign friends and would like to set the address format for their individual cards correctly. I can't seem to find a way to do this. I will be taken aback if this can't be done - I think the old Claris contact product did that.
Anyone with any answer?
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
When in edit mode, can you right click on the address field and change the country format there? I'm not on a Mac at the moment to double check, but that's what you do in OS 10.4 so I'd be surprised if it were changed in 10.5.
Edit: Here's picture to demonstrate what I'm referring to:

Preventing empty rows in address formats

Hallo everyone!
I'd like to know if there is a method to prevent SBO2005A from printing empty rows in the address fields when for instance there is missing county in BP addresses like this:
I have defined an address format that goes
Block
County
Street
ZipCode | Freetext(" ") | City
We use Block as "Name2" and County as "Name3" in master data just in case the customer wants to use additional names for his BPs.
If I use the "Block" - field and I leave the "County" - field blank it prints an empty row between "Block" and "Street". This is not the behaviour I would like to see. In case "county" is missing I would rather see something like this in a printout:
Block
Street
ZipCode | Freetext(" ") | City
So, is there a method to force this? or any workaround?

Hello Patryk,
PLD does not offer the functionality to control the blank lines in an address field. I would suggest you use a formatted search in your address field on the marketing document and have it formatted in the document itself before you print.
