Search in external files with Oracke DB?

Is it possible to use Oracle DB to search in external files (Excel and Word)?
If yes, does it work in version 7 and 8 also?
Per Magne Yes it is possible. The name for this feature is different in each version and I recommend to use 8.1.7 or 9i and you can use a FILE_DATASTORE.
Oracle is using a third party apllication (INSO-Filter) to covert excel,word,... to html and index these.
7/8 context option (or cartridge)
8i Intermedia Text
9i Oracle Text

  • Search inside Coldfusion files with Spotlight?

    I've recently found to my dismay that you cannot search inside .cfm files with Spotlight, and there appears to be no easy way to tell Spotlight to start looking in those files. I would assume that since they're just text files, and Spotlight does seem to search inside .htm files, that it shouldn't be too difficult to get Spotlight to do this, but I'm at a loss as to going about it.
    Can anybody point me in the right direction?
    Thanks.

    For Spotlight to index content there has to be an mdimporter for that content type. If the files are in fact plain text, it is possible to do a bit of hacking to get them indexed, see this discussion at MacOSXHints:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050514182520714&query=mdimport
    Be sure to read the comments! And don't do it without a current clone of your system on an external drive that is NOT attached when you try this out (if you do try it).

  • Problem in loading an external file with unicode name

    Hi,
    I am working on a project which involves loading of an
    external file with unicode name for ex:
    "插入音乐.mp3
    ,插入音乐.jpg". These unicode files are
    loaded successfully when I play/publish the movie with flash player
    alone.
    But when the movie is embedded in to HTML file, it is failing
    to load files with unicode name. this works fine with English name.
    is it a bug? if not pls help.. on this issue
    Thx

    what is your code? so we can get clear picture.

  • Search for a file with part of a filename in a given folder.

    How can I search for a file with part of a filename in a given folder?
    Or can I change the columns in Advanced Search so that the heading is filename?

    thanks, Michel. it had occurred to me to put a scratch tag on the folder, but I was hoping for an easier way. in future I'll do as you suggest though, because it's easier than what I have been doing.

  • Working With Two External Files With T-SQL Commands

    Hi friends,
    In a VSTO Excel AddIn of mine I have come across a need to use T-SQL commands before bringing the dataset on the activesheet, derived from two tables in the shape of external CSV files. However,
    since using SQL Express in this regard requires connection to a server. With Visual Studio as well as SSMS installed on my laptop I'm able to use the said facility but I am unable to distribute such an addin to other team members not having any of the studios
    installed nor access to any server.
    Is there any way to use the similar features on the users' side?
    In other words, how to develop a macro, for example, in which I could consider two CSV files as two different tables as in a database, and carryout some T-SQL functions/commands on the same like:
    UNION of first three columns from both the tables;
    Creating a temporary table with the DISTINCT sets of the said three columns; and
    Then carryout LEFT JOINS between the new table and the earlier two tables;
    to derive a simple comparative dataset?
    Looking forward for you experts' valuable advices in this regard.
    Thanx in advance.
    Thanx in advance, Best Regards, Faraz A Qureshi

    Hi FARAZ,
    As with Excel files, you can also use Odbc driver to connect to CSV files. As long as the user's machine installs the ODBC driver, you can OdbcConnection to connect to the CSV files.
    The sample code to manimulate CSV files with ODBC driver(C#):
    string connectionString = @"Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)}; Dbq=C:\; Extensions=asc,csv,tab,txt;";
    using (OdbcConnection conn = new OdbcConnection(connectionString))
    conn.Open();
    string sql = "SELECT u.UserName,u.Age,c.Phone,c.Address FROM user.csv u left join contact.csv c on u.Id=c.UserId";
    using (OdbcCommand cmd = new OdbcCommand(sql, conn))
    But if you want to publish the Add-in to the user's machine, you still need to install the .Net Framework and the VSTO runtime to support the Add-in.

  • Open an external file with as2??

    Im building a portfolio on Flash.I have created my menu buttons and need to open files with doc, pdf, avi and swf extentions.
    So far I have been using the getUrl command and it seems to work for the pdf and swf. How can I get this to work for the other types?
    They all seems to work when I try them from my computer, but once they are burned in the cd, it fails miserably. Help!!!!

    adjust your security settings to allow your cd to be in the trusted zone and retest to confirm this is a security sandbox issue:

    Please don't flame the newbie here--what's QuickLook? Is that a separate utility I need in order to use the BetterZip plugin? I followed your BetterZip link and didn't find any info about where to get QuickLook.
    QuickLook is part of the OS that allows you to take a "quick look" inside a file. Select a file in the Finder and press the space bar.
    There are a number of QuickLook plugins for various file types. To install one just copy it to the "QuickLook" folder inside the "Library" folder in your home directory. You may have to create that folder.
    I'm a PC who just got a MacBook Air, and I'm extremely frustrated by the fact that I can't look inside my archives or add files to existing zip archives, which is standard in Windows 7. Why on earth would Finder assume I want to unzip the whole archive by default?
    Windows uses a very simple file system. MacOS X has a lot more going on underneath. It can't accurately represent Macintosh files on anything except a Macintosh file system. There are compatibility modes for things like servers and foreign file systems, but they are only for interfacing with those foreign systems. They shouldn't be used for day-to-day operations.
    I'm a writer and I zip all of my text and photos together for each article when they're published, but sometimes need to refer back. Sounds like QuickLook/BetterZip just might solve my problem.
    Don't forget Spotlight. While it is a bit of a hassle to update a zip file, you can search your computer (and any zip files therein) very quickly and easily for any data.

  • Opening External File with bookmarks

    Thank you for any help given.
    I have set-up 1 dropdown to filter info in to a second dropdown that when i select that item, it opens a new file over the top of the page. Great.
    The file that is being opened has been set to No Bookmarks "Page Only" & view at 65% in Document Properties, However when it is opened the file opens with Bookmark tab open showing "Local Disk" & "file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Craig%20Ryan/Desktop/FILE%20SYSTEM/CPG%20Paperwork /Handouts/Inclusions Elegance.pdf" being its location & name, as well as the page being viewed at 100%?? is there an option or way that when the file is opened and the Files Properties are uses to display the file?

  • Problems importing a JavaScript (.js) external file

    Hello everyone,
    Within RoboHelp, I was able to write a JavaScript function for a link that asks our customer if a topic was helpful.  The code basically populates the topic name in the subject line in the e-mail to prevent us from entering the topic name for each topic.  Basic stuff.  Anyway, if I put the code in the topic itself and call the function, it works beautifully.  But if I reference an external file with the traditional reference tag, I have no luck and an "object not found" error message displays, which tells me that it cannot locate the .js file -- it is in my project folder.  No dice.
    Any thoughts on this?  Has anyone experienced this before?  I am using RoboHelp 7.

    Hi,
    In the top of your HTML file stands an empty function: <script language=JavaScript>breadcrumbs()</script>. This is causing the error in your CHM. Remove this, or create a valid function.
    Your script works fine in both CHM and WebHelp, but only the CHM gives an error message because of the empty function.
    Greet,
    Willam

  • Opening external files

    Hello, im starting in flash, and i want to open external
    files with buttons, for a cd menu that i'm creating. I have created
    an fscommand folder and a launcher.bat that execute the file that i
    want when i press the button. But what i really want is to execut a
    file whatever it name is. For example i want to execute a .pdf file
    whitout calling it by the name to give me the chance to use de cd
    menu with various cds. Can anyoune help me with the code to the
    launcher.bat file? I have tryed start *.pdf but it didn't work.
    Thank you.

    does it have to be through a url, can't it be trough a path,
    like C:\file.rar or something like that? it's because the computer
    where i'm going to do the presentation does not have internet, so
    that way won't help me much

  • FCP searching for a file issue?

    Okay, every time I open any project with FCP 6.0.2 it keeps looking for a file from a completely different project that I haven't opened or used for 8 months (this file has NO relation to the current project). What happens is a little dialog saying searching for the file, with a "Stop" button, then if you hit stop or it of course does not find the file, the dialog comes up asking to search or cancel. Well I hit cancel, then the project continues to open, then it comes up a bunch more times and I just keep hitting cancel until the project is completely open and I can then edit it. Any ideas short of a full FCP removal and reinstall to get rid of that? I've tried deleting caches, preferences, etc to no avail.

    The message you are seeing is not from Final Cut; it is from QuickTime. Final Cut is asking QuickTime to validate the disk file for one of the project clips, and the clip appears damaged.
    Note the name of the file that QuickTime (inside Final Cut) is complaining about. If you reimport that file, the problem will go away (most of the time).
    If this is happening for 15 or 20 files, it's a major pain the neck, I know. I have never heard an explanation of what causes this. (Is it Final Cut munging the files? Is it QuickTime?)
