Search directory of PDF's based on Query Results?

Hello - Is it possible to search a directory of .pdf files
based on a
returned list of query results? For example I query a product
database
that returns a list of Product Names and Product ID's. Based
on that
list of query results, I'd like see if a pdf exists in the
directory
that has the same name as the Product ID, and then create a
link to that
.pdf.
Make sense?
Thank you,
Steve Miller

I figured it out.
Thank you,
Steve Miller

  • Form Filter Based On Query Results

    How can I create a filter on a form based on the results of a query.
    i.e. The Query [ESS_City] looks at the form's field [Current_User] and generate a list of cities [City_ID] that I want to use to match the form [ESS_QUEUE] field [City_ID]
    Query Name:  [ESS_City]
    Query Field:  [City_ID]
    Form name:  [ESS_Queue]
    Form Field to filter with:  [City_ID]
    Thank you,
    Mark Matzke

    I use criteria in my queries instead of filters. 
    I would have a combo in the header of the form to select City_ID.   Use that combo as criteria in the query that feeds the form.  Have an AfterUpdate event to refresh the form.

  • How to embed chart/grafic into bex report (workbook) based on query result?

    Hi friends,
    Since I have never embedded any Charts/Grafic based on query report, I am wondering if you could share your knowledge?
    Thanks for your help in advance!
    Regards,
    Sally

    Hi Sally,
    You can create chart into workbook based on the query data.
    Execute the query it will show result in excel sheet. In the tool bar of the sheet you find 'Chart wizard' icon . Select the icon, it will ask for the type of the graph. After select the ranges of the data from result. It will display the graph. Then you can save the workbook.
    Graphs can be embedded in different sheets.
    Hope it helps.

  • Using jquery to hide/show field based on query results

    I have a form that includes fields for country and state/province.  Initially, the state field is hidden.  When the user selects a country, I use a bind expression in the state field to get the states in the selected country.  I want to display the state field only if the country has states (since some countries don't).  Can someone tell me how to do this?  Here's the relevant stuff:
    <script>
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $('#stateID').hide();
            $('#stateIDLable').hide();
    </script>
    Country:
    <cfselect name="countryID" query="qryCountries" value="countryID" display="country" />
    <div id="stateIDLable">State or Province:</div>
    <cfselect id="stateID" name="stateID" bind="cfc:geography.getStates({countryID})" />
    Thanks.
       Pete

    I presume you have a JavaScript function that handles the results of the cfc binding?
    If you don't you will need to incorperate one.  Then, as well as populating the second select, this function can use logic to show the second set of controls.

  • Filter tables based on query results

    Hello,
    I have a report from multiple data providers.The first page of it is a summary page for the data providers and it has a small table per data provider.
    My question is- is it possible to not show a table if the data provider has not results ?
    If so - then how can this be done ?

    Follow this steps:
    1. Select Table. Do right click
    2. Choose Table Format. Select Appeareance Tab.
    3.Check "Hide Block" checkbox.
    4.Press Edit Button and place this formula:
    =NumberOfRows("YOUR PROVIDER NAME HERE") = 0
    5.Press Ok. The formula will be displayed under the "Hide block" checkbox.  Press Ok.
    Apply this to every table you one to hide if its data provider has not results.
    If one of your tables hides and you still want to do some additional modifications press "Structure button" to be able to see it.

  • Search criterias in one page, the query results in another page?

    Hi, can I put search criterias in one page, and get query results in another page?
    Need help
    Thanks in advance
    karman

    If you meant a situation like: Page 1 has some items and page 2 has a report which refers page 1 itemsThen your report _query would fetch proper results provided the page 1 item values are available in the session_.
    That is, after submitting their values(using page submit,dynamic action,ajax etx) to session state , their values would be available in any page (anywhere in that session ) , until the page cache for the item page(page 1) is cleared.

  • Is it possible to use JavaScript to search a directory of PDF files?

    A company I am interning for is looking for a solution. They want to allow users to search within their PDF user manuals by typing a string into a search field and returning the PDF document link or page link. Is this possible? How would I accomplish this? I have only been programming for 1 year.
    Can adobe reader use javascript to create a link that we attach the directory to? If not how or what would you do?
    Thank you.

    Ideally, I would like a link to Adobe Reader or Acrobat that only allows users to "Search Our Manuals for Help".  The user types in "Commission Invoice Inquiry" and in return gets links etc. to the PDF's in our directory of files containing that inquiry or "string".
    User scenario:  User gets new software from company but needs to look in manual on how to get "commision invoice inquiry". So user goes onto my company's website and finds this said application I am looking for and types in "commission invoice inquiry" and hits enter. The application then searches through the company's directory of PDF files (manuals) for "commission invoice inquiry" and returns any page links within the PDF that have that "commission invoice inquiry" on them. It can open inside of Adobe Reader or Acrobat or whichever. The company is even willing to pay for said "plugin" or application.

  • Can I create a custom table of contents and link to other .pdf files based on responses to a form?

    Hey Everyone! First post ever, so bear with me:
    I'm trying to create a streamlined method to use a form  to let myself and others add information and select certain options to put together a custom table of contents. Basically, I would like to have a form with a series of text fill and single/multiple choice options that will automatically populate a table of contents based on the selections and will link to other .pdf files that are associated with the selections. I was hoping this would be possible with a form, but I'm relatively new to the function of the software as a whole and my research came up short. Any suggestions on how to start are more than welcome, and if I wasn't quite clear enough I would be happy to elaborate.
    Thanks for your time!

    You would need to search for other PDF creation software that can accomplish what you desire.
    There are many cheaper  PDF creation alternatives other than Adobe's Acrobat Pro software.
    Also, try doing a web search under these terms to see if you can find an app/software/solution that may work for you.

  • Creating a directory via a jsp page sql query return

    Is it possible to create a directory based on the results of a sql query?
    i.e.
    My sql query returns application number 1234 for a building application (BC for short).
    Is it possible to create a directory /BC/1234
    It is then proposed to use an iframe to look into the directory so users can place and access scanned documents which are captured during the approval process.
    If so how?
    An example would be great.
    Jason

    Sorry hope your still around I've been away for a while. We've created a samber share to the file server where the documents are stored and mounted it within the web file directory. It works ok if there is an existing directory but if there isn't we want it to be created when the page looks for the folder. I've done this with an asp page it basically did a directory exist test first then create folder if it didn't. The problem is can't find an example of how to do the directory exist test then directory create syntax so an example of both would be great

  • Unable to turn on Advanced Search for viewing PDFs (v9.1) through IE7

    Our company is currently using Acrobat 9.1 and Internet Explorer 7.
    We have multiple PDF document sets set up to be searched using index files. The Index feature can only be accessed using the Advanced Search option of Acrobat Reader or Pro 9.1.
    When we access the documents via our internal network, the advanced searching works fine. We can easily set the user's Acrobat Reader (or Writer) to have the Advanced Search option enabled.
    However, if our users try to access these documents via our company's intranet web pages, the Acrobat Reader Interface plug-in (acropdf.dll?) of IE7 is fixed to only use the Basic Search option. Users are only able to search the active PDF.  I have not found a way to enable the the Advanced Search option using the Adobe / IE7 interface.
    Not that long ago, we thought this option was available.
    Is there a way to turn this feature on or at least allow it to be enabled?
    Thanks Much!

    Hello,
    This may be of interest to anyone whose had the Advanced Search Problem (or the mis-linking problem mentioned below) using the current Acrobat Plugin to IE7.
    I think I have found a workaround for this problem (and another we've found). I've been having users test this out over the past couple of weeks and it's working fine.
    Problem #1
    Being unable to use index searching across multiple documents with the Acrobat Reader 9.1 plug-in interface running from within Internet Explorer version 7.0.    This current plug-in interface disallows setting up the Advanced Index Search feature that groups within our company use.
    Problem #2
    Links in PDF A are not properly linking to desired pages (link targets) in PDF B.  Any links in PDF A will only take the user to Page 1 of PDF B.   This occurs when any PDF links to a certain page (other than page 1) in another targeted PDF.
    Solution:
    Set the user's (many users in my case) Acrobat Reader (or Pro) to only open web based PDFs into the stand-alone Acrobat interface using the Accessibility Setup Assistant.
    In Adobe Reader:
         Go to Document | Accessibility Setup Assistant.
         Advance through the dialogs to Screen 5 of 5.
         Turn OFF the feature Display PDF documents in web browser.
         Select Done.
         Exit Adobe reader.
    In Adobe Acrobat Pro:
         Go to Advanced | Accessibility | Setup Assistant ...
         Advance through the dialogs to Screen 5 of 5.
         Turn OFF the feature Display PDF documents in web browser.
         Select Done.
    Result:
    Any PDFs embedded in a web page (environment) will open up in a new session of Acrobat (Reader or Pro) on the users desktop.
    Searching via indexes works great and there are no linking problems between PDFs.
    It may not be an optimal solution, but is working fine for our folks that access our files via our company's intranet.
    The only drawback I see is that you lose focus of the IE7 session and have to work outside of it's containment.  Although it is easy to set it back to the way it worked previously.
    If anyone has any questions or comments, please let me know.  I'm open to any improvements we can make to our process.
    Thanks!

  • Sending email using PL/SQL based on a query result

    Hello all,
    I want to create a procedure using PL/SQL, based on a query result.Here is the scenario:
    I have multiple tables in Target and Source databases that I want to compare(not the whole table but queries on these tables) and if they differ, I want to shoot an email. I have some ideas how to implement this but not sure whether it is the best approach.
    select Acct_id, total from SourceTableA
    minus
    select Acct_id, total from TargetTableA
    select Acct_id, sum from SourceTableB
    minus
    select Acct_id, sum from TargetTableB
    If the result of any of above queries > 0 then I want to shoot an email and want to repeat this procedure in the morning every day.
    I know how to implement send_mail procedure using UTL_SMTP package and how to schedule tha job by dbms_job package. But I am not sure how to implement the result of minus query. In case if minus > 0 then I also want to send the name of tables in the email message where source and target tables are not same. Should i use cursor, variable or insert the result in a new table? any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Khan

    Actually these queries are the part of our daily testing that we run everyday manually(after the scheduled ETL load) to see if there are any discrepencies between our datawarehouse tables and source tables. So instead of running these queries manually everyday we want to schedula a procedure that will shoot an email in case of any discrepency and indicate which tables have problems.

  • Print layout designer for develop report based on query

    Dear Experts/Gurus,
    I am amazing about the manage previous reconciliation report. When I opened it using print layout designer, it looks like the report is not built using query, but I am not sure yet. This is very confusing. I created query similar with manage previous reconciliation (MPR), but when I link the query to print layout and try to make similar format/appearance with MPR report (reconciliation management (system)), it is not success.
    Isn't the MPR report built not based on query ? I appreciate your answer. TIA
    Rgds,

    Hi,
    I am not sure I understand what's the problem:
    Is it the layout that is different or the data?
    Regarding the data you can use SQL Profiler (maybe you did?) to find out what queries are fired, but please note that there are some stored procedures in the DB that are used for some specific functions - not sure whether the "MPR" uses any of these.
    Then you must include some non-default filter in SQL Profiler...
    ...but you can also use the logging functionality in B1 for that purpose:
    Just activate the logging (see the "log" folder in the B1 subdirectory) in the corresponding config file: choose the option to have the SQLs logged in conjunction with the logging being triggered in all cases (not just error).
    Thus you will get all the SQLs - just plain - from the B1 application, but note that it will obviously slow it down!

    Can any body tell me how search text in PDF
    and MS Word document through Java code, any
    body has code or any suggestion to giveYes.
    First, you need to work out how to read each document type from Java.
    E.g, for MS Word you could use Apache Jakarta POI - HWPF: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hwpf/index.html
    Then, you use Apache Lucene to index and search.
    See http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/index.html
