Send email with column values before and after change with workflow

I am trying to send an email to specified users when a column in a list changes in MOSS 2007 with workflow. I have a comments column in a list and whenever any user updates that comment, a mail should go to the creator and specific group stating what has
changed.
I saw a response which states to create 2 lists and keep them in sync and compare values of comments from the two lists. But that is not a perfect solution.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If we want to compare a column with itself, we need the help of another column. We can create a column in the same list
named Comment2 for example, and it’s the backup copy of
comments.
The workflow conditions can be set that if
comments not equal Comment2, in Actions set send an email (we can get the previous value in
Comment2 and new value in comments), and then update the
Comment2 to comments.
Thanks,
Emir

  • How to compare value before and after

    hi,
    one of the queried Values ​​is the number of defective frames.Here, this value is compared with a previously sampled value
    If now (after 10 s) this value is bigger than previous one ,then It saves new value otherwise loop will be continue.If again after (10s) the new value is bigger than  previous  new value then again saves this new point.how can i comapre value before and after?thanks.

    Do you know what a shift register is? It preserves a value from one loop iteration to the next. Please read the LabVIEW Help on shift registers. There's is also a simple example that ships with LabVIEW that will give you the basic idea (Help -> Find Examples).
    You can also use a Feedback Node in lieu of a shift register. Same concept, different implementation.

  • Split view for before and after changes?

    One feature I used to use a lot on Lightroom as where it would show a split view showing the image before and after changes (adjustments). I cannot find how to do this in Aperture - is it possible, what is this feature called?
    (and before any smart person tells me to look in help, I'm tired of responses like that. I've looked and didn't find, and that's why I'm asking here. I've tried Compare, and Before and After Changes etc.)

    Unfortunately, no, there is no ability to do the split view like Lightroom has. It's a nice feature.
    The closest you can do is to flip back and forth between two versions. Because when you view the master in aperture it shows the original file without crops and straightening, I suggest that once you crop and straighten, you then create a new version and work on that (this is as close as you can get to LR's "snapshot" functionality). You can then flip back and forth between the two versions to see the changes... but you can't see them side by side with a split.

  • Counting values before and after an interval

    I posted this awhile back but I'm back to trying to solve the problem (didn't solve it), so apologies if that is bad etiquette! This forum has been so helpful though I thought I would try again:
    design/methodology question
    The short of it is I have a table with calls that happened, all have a start and end time.
    I want to take 1 min intervals over a given hour (say, 12-1pm) and (the part I need help with) count all calls that happened before and after that interval.
    That is to say, all calls that were 'active' during that interval (consider if I call started at 11:59 am and ended at 12:05) would need to be counted for the 12:00, 12:01, 12:02, 12:03, 12:04, and 12:05 intervals.
    So what I'm trying to construct is an SQL query that uses a 'variable' in this case (I think).
    That is, so I can saw 'where start_time < min_interval' and where 'end_time is > min_interval' and count those records to my total.
    But I'm at a loss on how to pull this off!
    Thoughts?

    If a call began at 15:01:01 and ended at 15:01:59, was it active at 15:01? Was it active at 15:02? Both? Neither?Is only active at 15:01.
    Do you need 4 separate numbers, or do you need 1 number, which is the total of these 4?I need 1 number which is the math formula (using the number above)
    1 + 2 - 3 + 4

  • Setting/Getting Parameter Values BEFORE and AFTER the param window loads

    Hi there. My name is William Sanchez. I posted this question on Brian Wheadon's blog because I'm not sure that what we're trying to accomplish can be currently done with 2008 Crystal Report Viewer  and was wondering if a future version will support this, or if we're just missing something. I've searched through the SDK and API and can't seem to find a solution. Here's what we're trying to accomplish
    In a nutsheel: we think we need to hook into Crystal Report Viewer's parameter window from our WPF app.
    What we need to do is to be able to pass a set of default values to our parameters AND, after that's done programmatically, still display the parameter window for the report. Currently, however, after you do:
    parameterFieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(currentParameterValues);
    it's as if Crystal says: Ok, we got the value, there's no need to show the parameter window anymore. This makes sense, but we need to still be able to show the parameter window to the user because all we did (from our point of view) is to pass in a default "choice". If we were to call ApplyDefaultValues() instead, the actual choices for the parameter are overriden. We basically want to make a default choice for the user from the allowed values for that parameter. But we want to still present the parameter window with the default choice already selected, plus all the other choices available for that parameter. If the crystal report has parameter1 set to false as default, we might want to programmatically set it to true, but still show false as an option on the parameter window.
    Part 2 of what we'd like to accomplish is that after the user changes any of the parameter values, and clicks OK to view the report, we'd like to catch the new parameter values in code to do something with them.
    This is why we're thinking of hooking into the parameter window so that we can tell it what we want both BEFORE it loads and AFTER the user is done...just like we can hook into the CrystalReportViewer refresh button like this:
    CrystalReportsViewer.ReportRefresh += new CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.RefreshEventHandler(CrystalReportsViewer_ReportRefresh);
    Our app is a WPF C# .NET 3.5 desktop application. Any assistance or direction will surely be appreciated.
    Kinds Regards,

    Good day Ted, thanks for your reply.
    I did try Parameter.Default value, but what it does is as I mentioned above. If I have Parameter1 as a boolean, with possible values of true and false, if I set Paramter1.Default = true, the parameter window does come up, but it removed the false option from the drop down. So this is not a way to pick one of the various values for Parameter1, but to default it to only one of the values. It's close to what we need, but not fully.
    Also, what are your thoughts about getting the parameter values after the user has made their changes to the CrystalReportViewer parameter window and click OK to pass them to the report. How can we programmatically get those new values?

  • Possible to get JComboBox before and after chaged value?

               // add the variable Listener to your Combo
               YourComboBox.addItemListener(ComboBListener);
           // if focus is lost
           public void focusLost(java.awt.event.FocusEvent fe)

  • Oracle Alert: Access before and after update values of a table column

    We have a requirement where a notification needs to be sent when 'END_DATE' attribute (column in a table X) is set, in an Oracle Applications form.

    Could anyone please let me know as how to access the value of 'END_DATE' before and after update (i.e :new.END_DATE and :old.END_DATE) in the sql query of the alert.
    The need to use the before update and after update values of the attribute 'END_DATE' is that if we add the condition END_DATE is not null, the alert is sent even if any other attrbutes are updated in the Oracle form which is not the intended behavior.

I have used the "Share photos as embedded images" feature frequently, but today when I went to use it, it wasn't there, only the option to send email with files attached. How do I get back the ability to send emails with photos embedded. I like adding the frames and backgrounds and I think it's easier for recipients to look at the photos. Thanks for any suggestions of things to try.

    I had a similar problem in that my wife's iphone 5 could not send pics with imessage.  Had to set the settings to default to SMS or whatever.  After laboring many hours on the web I coincidentally was on the phone with the internet people to question my internet speed.  They changed the router channel, which is something that I am capable of doing myself.  After that, the pics go over imessage.  My own Iphone didn't have the problem.  We are both latest IOS 7.0.6.

  • No original with before and after

    PSE 11 on a mac. Before and after only showing the most recently edited version of my work. Not the original photo. Help

    Sorry, but I'm still not sure I see what the problem is. When you enter QF or Guided, you will see the condition of your photo at that moment. If you've done editing in expert mode, for example--say you used Correct Color Cast--you'll see your photo just as it is at this moment, with the color cast corrected. Are you saying that when you make a change in quick fix, the before photo is changing to show what you did so that it looks just like the After view? If so, quit the editor and then restart it while holding down command+shift+option. Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
    Or do you mean that in a previous editing session you had  edited a photo and saved the changes, but now you want to go back to the original as your starting point. If the last, if you use organizer, go there and expand the version set and choose the original to send for editing. If you're using iphoto, you may need to right-click the photo and choose Revert to get back to your original again.

  • OWA Email Prompt Before Sending Email With Spelling Errors

    Looking for a way to configure OWA so that it does not send, or at least prompts you before sending, an email that has spelling errors? 
    Thanks

    Hi FaeB,
    Thank you for your question.
    Exchange 2013 OWA didn’t  just receive email without any development.
    When we send email with spelling error, OWA will display the red line under incorrect word, as the following snapshot:
    In snapshot, I make the word of “email” and “error” incorrect.  If we didn’t modify it, OWA will not give another reminder when we send emails.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

  • TS3899 Cannot send email with new iPad air.  Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.

    Cannot send email with new iPad air.  Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.  I have deleted account and reinstalled.

    Thanks.  I got the problem fixed.  Spent time with the Apple folks and was kicked up to a senior advisor.  It seems the problem was with my internet provider - Tmie Warner.  Remember I could use the old ipad and the iphone to send mail.  I checked all the specifics between the three units.  It seems that TW is changing over from the RR.com  to TWC.com.  Since the new ipad air was just set up, it fell under the new TWC mail specifics.

  • Problems sending emails with iPhone 3G and outlook exchange

    I have a problem sending email with exchange. Receiving and answering mail works fine and calender updates work fine. However when I initiate an email from the phone it syncs and ends up in the sent folder in the computer but never reaches the recipient. I have tried this many times with different recipients and phones. It only happens from my iphone and ipad. Any suggestions?
    Any help much appreciated

    The iPhone you returned is still syncing against your server and locking out your account. Someone possibly has access to your mail data. I'd recommend having your Exchange Administrator install the Microsoft Exchange Server ActiveSync Web Administration Tool (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E6851D23-D145-4DBF-A2CC -E0B4C6301453&displaylang=en) and attempt to wipe/delete/block that other iPhone.

  • Sending emails with both body and attachment to multiple recipients

    I have a requirement to send email with body and attachment to multiple recipients.
    Body of the email is a standard text. It is a proxy-to-mail scenario.
    Here is what I've done: (I'm using PI 7.11)
    One mapping from Source to Target structure (format of the attachment text file)
    Second mapping from Target Structure to Mail Package format.
    In the second mapping I'm concatenating the output of first step into "Content" of the Mail Package.
    "XIPAYLOAD" is the message protocol used.
    The "Keep attachments" option in the Mail adapter allows only to send "Content" as attachment or as body of the email.
    How to send an email with both content and text?
    The other problem is even with using ASMA, I can't send email to multiple recipients. I can only do CC and TO for 1 person each - a total of 2. Although I can resolve this by creating mailing lists, it is better if this can be addressed in PI.
    Thanks for any input you can provide!

    XI Mail Adapter : Dynamically building attachment and message body content using a simple UDF
    (I just needed to search with the right set of key words )
    The key is to set the "Content Encoding" as "None" in the mail adapter. If this is not done, the mail will be sent with an attachment - untitled.bin containing both the mail body and the attachment text. Also, don't forget to check the "Keep Attachments" checkbox in the mail adapter.
    Multiple recipients could be added by separating the email IDs with a Comma. I have used ASMA to set the recipients.
