Set the precision

I want to set the precision of a number to 2. I am trying to use the following query but it is not working in forms although it runs perfectly in SQL PLUS. The field is number type.
select CAST(123456789123456789.2342342342342 as decimal(25,6)) from dual
select CAST(:MYFIELD as decimal(25,6)) from dual
I am using Oracle Forms 6i and Database 9.2.0.1.0

Forms SQL and Database SQL was not the same thing in 6i and with forms 6i/database 9i you'll find even more differences. When you can't do something in forms then often the best solution is to move the process to the database and call it from forms.

Is it possible to set the precision for the subtraction operator?

Hi everyone.
I have two complex double precision numbers that are suppose to be equals. Each one is the result of different sets of equations.
When I subtract one from the other the result is not zero.
I think this can be explain by the fact that they are quite large numbers (about 1E+101), causing the subtraction operator to drop (or round, or do something not legit with) the two numbers. Moreover, if I repeat the subtraction with different large numbers, I obtain about half of the time the expected result (zero) and the rest of the time I obtain a value between 1E+84 and 1E+86.
What I would like is to get the result right everytime, so I thought about setting a precision to the subtraction operator. Is that possible? If it is, how am I suppose to do that and if not, what's wrong with the subtraction operator?
Thanks
tonh

Thought 1: 1e+101 is pretty big! Do you *need* all your calcs to carry such a big exponent? For example, can you run all the calcs on values that have been scaled by 1e-100, then at the end of all the calcs scale back by 1e+100?
Thought 2: If you just need to compare for approximate equality, you could divide the difference by the larger of the two values being subtracted. If you subtract two virtually equal 1e+101 values, you may get a difference in the order of 1e+85. The division will give you a ratio of ~1e-16. Ratios in that realm will mean that the two original values are about as nearly equal as the floating point representation can express. This type of method scales pretty well to work with both very small and very large floating point numbers.
Thought 3: If the inputs to your calcs are in the order of 1e+85 or less, you may really have your work cut out for you. You'll need to think carefully about floating point representation error at each step of the calculations to know where you can round, truncate, approximate, etc. There may be places where rounding will be *necessary* and other places where it is *disastrous*.
To summarize: you need to apply some of your error knowledge to your code. The 1e+101 calculated values probably don't have more than 6-8 *significant* digits of accuracy, right? (Most numbers come from some kind of measurement, or a rounded-off value for a scientific constant, etc.) You'll need to analyze your values and calcs to understand about how many digits of the 1e+101 numbers are truly *significant*. Then your code will need to treat values which differ by less than that amount as if they are truly equal.

How can I change the precision of a numeric array indicator using property nodes ?

I want to change the precision of a numeric array indicator programatically using property nodes. I tried to see all the array properties but I couldn't find it. URGENT !!!

If you want to change the precision of an element in an array you must first get the reference to the array element. Then raise the reference to the more specific class of a digital numeric. Use a property node connected to that reference to set the precision. See the attached vi for an example.

How do you set the decimal precision of a float?

Hello,
I am new to Java and have run into a problem. I am trying to truncate an array of floats and save them to a file. I want to save two decimal places with 0's ie: 0 as 0.00
For example:
I have a number 0.9772128 and I want to convert it and store it as 0.98, the following code seems to truncate it but there is a problem.
float d = output_Weights;
d = Math.round(d * 100) / 100.0;
some of my numbers come out as .1 instead of .10 and I can't seem to figure out how to add the 0's on the end of them.
Does anyone have any suggestions or a better way of getting the two decimal precision?
Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to offer.

And if you want to set the decimal precision when you convert the floating point number to text (which is what you are talking about when you say it ends with .1 instead of .10), you use a DecimalFormat object to do that.
(By the way, isn't there supposed to be an apostrophe in Arc'teryx?)

Setting the digits of precision for TDMS logging

I can't seem to figure out a way to set the digits of precision when logging data to a TDMS file. I'm hopping to be able to reduce the file size by doing this. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Cosimo
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The data in a TDMS file is binary. So you can't set the digits of precision. If you want to make smaller files, then cast your data to Singles instead of Doubles. You will have 1/2 the resolution, but use 1/2 the bits on disk.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

Class Locale
java.lang.Object
java.util.Locale
All Implemented Interfaces:
Cloneable, Serializable
public final class Locale
extends Object
implements Cloneable, Serializable
A Locale object represents a specific geographical, political, or cultural region. An operation that requires a Locale to perform its task is called locale-sensitive and uses the Locale to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a number is a locale-sensitive operation--the number should be formatted according to the customs/conventions of the user's native country, region, or culture.
Create a Locale object using the constructors in this class:
Locale(String language)
Locale(String language, String country)
Locale(String language, String country, String variant)
The language argument is a valid ISO Language Code. These codes are the lower-case, two-letter codes as defined by ISO-639. You can find a full list of these codes at a number of sites, such as:
http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso639.txt
The country argument is a valid ISO Country Code. These codes are the upper-case, two-letter codes as defined by ISO-3166. You can find a full list of these codes at a number of sites, such as:
http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html
The variant argument is a vendor or browser-specific code. For example, use WIN for Windows, MAC for Macintosh, and POSIX for POSIX. Where there are two variants, separate them with an underscore, and put the most important one first. For example, a Traditional Spanish collation might construct a locale with parameters for language, country and variant as: "es", "ES", "Traditional_WIN".
Because a Locale object is just an identifier for a region, no validity check is performed when you construct a Locale. If you want to see whether particular resources are available for the Locale you construct, you must query those resources. For example, ask the NumberFormat for the locales it supports using its getAvailableLocales method.
Note: When you ask for a resource for a particular locale, you get back the best available match, not necessarily precisely what you asked for. For more information, look at ResourceBundle.
The Locale class provides a number of convenient constants that you can use to create Locale objects for commonly used locales. For example, the following creates a Locale object for the United States:
Locale.US
Once you've created a Locale you can query it for information about itself. Use getCountry to get the ISO Country Code and getLanguage to get the ISO Language Code. You can use getDisplayCountry to get the name of the country suitable for displaying to the user. Similarly, you can use getDisplayLanguage to get the name of the language suitable for displaying to the user. Interestingly, the getDisplayXXX methods are themselves locale-sensitive and have two versions: one that uses the default locale and one that uses the locale specified as an argument.
The Java 2 platform provides a number of classes that perform locale-sensitive operations. For example, the NumberFormat class formats numbers, currency, or percentages in a locale-sensitive manner. Classes such as NumberFormat have a number of convenience methods for creating a default object of that type. For example, the NumberFormat class provides these three convenience methods for creating a default NumberFormat object:
NumberFormat.getInstance()
NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance()
NumberFormat.getPercentInstance()
These methods have two variants; one with an explicit locale and one without; the latter using the default locale.
NumberFormat.getInstance(myLocale)
NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(myLocale)
NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(myLocale)
A Locale is the mechanism for identifying the kind of object (NumberFormat) that you would like to get. The locale is just a mechanism for identifying objects, not a container for the objects themselves.
Each class that performs locale-sensitive operations allows you to get all the available objects of that type. You can sift through these objects by language, country, or variant, and use the display names to present a menu to the user. For example, you can create a menu of all the collation objects suitable for a given language. Such classes must implement these three class methods:
public static Locale[] getAvailableLocales()
public static String getDisplayName(Locale objectLocale,
Locale displayLocale)
public static final String getDisplayName(Locale objectLocale)
// getDisplayName will throw MissingResourceException if the locale
// is not one of the available locales.

Constructor Detail
Locale
public Locale(String language,
String country,
String variant)Construct a locale from language, country, variant. NOTE: ISO 639 is not a stable standard; some of the language codes it defines (specifically iw, ji, and in) have changed. This constructor accepts both the old codes (iw, ji, and in) and the new codes (he, yi, and id), but all other API on Locale will return only the OLD codes.
Parameters:
language - lowercase two-letter ISO-639 code.
country - uppercase two-letter ISO-3166 code.
variant - vendor and browser specific code. See class description.
Throws:
NullPointerException - thrown if any argument is null.

Method Detail
getDefault
public static Locale getDefault()Gets the current value of the default locale for this instance of the Java Virtual Machine.
The Java Virtual Machine sets the default locale during startup based on the host environment. It is used by many locale-sensitive methods if no locale is explicitly specified. It can be changed using the setDefault method.
Returns:
the default locale for this instance of the Java Virtual Machine
setDefault
public static void setDefault(Locale newLocale)Sets the default locale for this instance of the Java Virtual Machine. This does not affect the host locale.
If there is a security manager, its checkPermission method is called with a PropertyPermission("user.language", "write") permission before the default locale is changed.
The Java Virtual Machine sets the default locale during startup based on the host environment. It is used by many locale-sensitive methods if no locale is explicitly specified.
Since changing the default locale may affect many different areas of functionality, this method should only be used if the caller is prepared to reinitialize locale-sensitive code running within the same Java Virtual Machine, such as the user interface.
Parameters:
newLocale - the new default locale
Throws:
SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPermission method doesn't allow the operation.
NullPointerException - if newLocale is null
See Also:
SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission), PropertyPermission
getAvailableLocales
public static Locale[] getAvailableLocales()Returns a list of all installed locales.
getISOCountries
public static String[] getISOCountries()Returns a list of all 2-letter country codes defined in ISO 3166. Can be used to create Locales.
getISOLanguages
public static String[] getISOLanguages()Returns a list of all 2-letter language codes defined in ISO 639. Can be used to create Locales. [NOTE: ISO 639 is not a stable standard-- some languages' codes have changed. The list this function returns includes both the new and the old codes for the languages whose codes have changed.]
getLanguage
public String getLanguage()Returns the language code for this locale, which will either be the empty string or a lowercase ISO 639 code.
NOTE: ISO 639 is not a stable standard-- some languages' codes have changed. Locale's constructor recognizes both the new and the old codes for the languages whose codes have changed, but this function always returns the old code. If you want to check for a specific language whose code has changed, don't do
if (locale.getLanguage().equals("he")
Instead, do
if (locale.getLanguage().equals(new Locale("he", "", "").getLanguage())

getVariant
public String getVariant()Returns the variant code for this locale.
See Also:
getDisplayVariant()
toString
public final String toString()Getter for the programmatic name of the entire locale, with the language, country and variant separated by underbars. Language is always lower case, and country is always upper case. If the language is missing, the string will begin with an underbar. If both the language and country fields are missing, this function will return the empty string, even if the variant field is filled in (you can't have a locale with just a variant-- the variant must accompany a valid language or country code). Examples: "en", "de_DE", "_GB", "en_US_WIN", "de__POSIX", "fr__MAC"
Overrides:
toString in class Object
Returns:
a string representation of the object.

getISO3Language
public String getISO3Language()
throws MissingResourceExceptionReturns a three-letter abbreviation for this locale's language. If the locale doesn't specify a language, this will be the empty string. Otherwise, this will be a lowercase ISO 639-2/T language code. The ISO 639-2 language codes can be found on-line at ftp://dkuug.dk/i18n/iso-639-2.txt
Throws:
MissingResourceException - Throws MissingResourceException if the three-letter language abbreviation is not available for this locale.
getISO3Country
public String getISO3Country()
throws MissingResourceExceptionReturns a three-letter abbreviation for this locale's country. If the locale doesn't specify a country, this will be tbe the empty string. Otherwise, this will be an uppercase ISO 3166 3-letter country code.
Throws:
MissingResourceException - Throws MissingResourceException if the three-letter country abbreviation is not available for this locale.
getDisplayLanguage
public final String getDisplayLanguage()Returns a name for the locale's language that is appropriate for display to the user. If possible, the name returned will be localized for the default locale. For example, if the locale is fr_FR and the default locale is en_US, getDisplayLanguage() will return "French"; if the locale is en_US and the default locale is fr_FR, getDisplayLanguage() will return "anglais". If the name returned cannot be localized for the default locale, (say, we don't have a Japanese name for Croatian), this function falls back on the English name, and uses the ISO code as a last-resort value. If the locale doesn't specify a language, this function returns the empty string.
getDisplayLanguage
public String getDisplayLanguage(Locale inLocale)Returns a name for the locale's language that is appropriate for display to the user. If possible, the name returned will be localized according to inLocale. For example, if the locale is fr_FR and inLocale is en_US, getDisplayLanguage() will return "French"; if the locale is en_US and inLocale is fr_FR, getDisplayLanguage() will return "anglais". If the name returned cannot be localized according to inLocale, (say, we don't have a Japanese name for Croatian), this function falls back on the default locale, on the English name, and finally on the ISO code as a last-resort value. If the locale doesn't specify a language, this function returns the empty string.
getDisplayCountry
public final String getDisplayCountry()Returns a name for the locale's country that is appropriate for display to the user. If possible, the name returned will be localized for the default locale. For example, if the locale is fr_FR and the default locale is en_US, getDisplayCountry() will return "France"; if the locale is en_US and the default locale is fr_FR, getDisplayLanguage() will return "Etats-Unis". If the name returned cannot be localized for the default locale, (say, we don't have a Japanese name for Croatia), this function falls back on the English name, and uses the ISO code as a last-resort value. If the locale doesn't specify a country, this function returns the empty string.
getDisplayCountry
public String getDisplayCountry(Locale inLocale)Returns a name for the locale's country that is appropriate for display to the user. If possible, the name returned will be localized according to inLocale. For example, if the locale is fr_FR and inLocale is en_US, getDisplayCountry() will return "France"; if the locale is en_US and inLocale is fr_FR, getDisplayLanguage() will return "Etats-Unis".

getDisplayVariant
public String getDisplayVariant(Locale inLocale)Returns a name for the locale's variant code that is appropriate for display to the user. If possible, the name will be localized for inLocale. If the locale doesn't specify a variant code, this function returns the empty string.
getDisplayName
public final String getDisplayName()Returns a name for the locale that is appropriate for display to the user. This will be the values returned by getDisplayLanguage(), getDisplayCountry(), and getDisplayVariant() assembled into a single string. The display name will have one of the following forms:
language (country, variant)
language (country)
language (variant)
country (variant)
language

Locale[] locales = Locale.ENGLISH();ENGLISH is not a method in class Locale, so do not add the braces "( );".
Also, the constant ENGLISH is not an array, but just a single Locale object.

How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?

How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?
Before upgrading to the latest version of iMovie last month, I was able to set the duation of all of the stills included in an iMovie project at one time by clicking the apply to all still box in the adjustment pop up. That option is no longer apparent. If it is available I cannot find it, and I have tried several different ways to accomplish it. I have tried the iMovie help section and can find nothing to help.
Apple, do I really have to adjust close to 500 pictures to a 5 second duration individually???
REALLY??!!

...why wouldnt people want that level of accuracy when animating, especially when working to music at a specific duration?
Because often people are animating to words or beats in the music. Music is rarely performed with a computer-precise beat and tempo. Musicians aren't robots: they swing the beat sometimes. They use rubato. They change tempo. They change time signatures. As a result, you have to FIND those words and beats. It's not a situation where you can say, "There! I've found the duration of one beat! Now it's easy to find the rest of them!"
If you try it, you will be very disappointed.
Try finding the precise end of a piece of music that fades or ends on a big chord with a ring-out. You'll see that it's trial-and-error: what's the point where it becomes inaudible? It depends on how high your speakers are turned up. You might have them way up, you set an end point for the layer, and then you do a RAM Preview at a more reasonable volume. You might say, "Hey! The music ends before the layer ends!"... but you KNOW you set the layer's out point when the audio file goes silent.
AE has layer markers that can be used on an audio layer to mark beats, words, etc. They come in very handy.
I guess it comes down to this: because AE can do so much different stuff, there are very few automated procedures. Oh, Adobe tries with effects that convert audio levels to keyframes, but they're not 100% reliable... especially on something like a capella choral works. For true accuracy, you need find the timings yourself.
If you want something simpler, try a different application. But be prepared for lower level of accuracy.

How to set the size of SUM()/SUM() of NUMBER Tyep?

I met the oracle truncation error when I post the
SUM(a field)/SUM(b field), a and b field are NUMBER Type
From the OCI Doc, Numbers with up to 38 digits precision.
and I set the size of data buffer 41 for NUMBER TYPE.
(for example)
rc = OCIDefineByPos( hstmt, &m_pDefine, ((CEBOracle *)pDatabase)->m_hpErr, index,
               (dvoid *) m_lpszBindData, m_nBufSize+1, SQLT_STR,
               (dvoid *) m_cbIndicator, (ub2 *) 0, (ub2 *) 0, OCI_DEFAULT);
I always set the output datatype as SQLT_STR
and m_nBufSize is 41 for NUMBER Type
my client met the error when the result is 0.00012345678912345678912345678912345678912
I think that it's not a solution that just enlarge the number form 41 -> 45
How can I avoid this problem when user send the SQL Statement that the result has unlimited decimal number?
Thank you in advancd

I migrated from OCI Ver7 to Ver8
If I set the buffer size to 10 (actually 40 in my program) and the result was
0.0000000000000000001
When I debuged the output buffer
The result was 1.0E-19
but now 0.00000000 and truncation error
how to change floating point and scientific expression automatically depend on the result like OCI Ver7 and SQL PLUS?
I changed define function
odefin(m_hstmt, ii+1, (UCHAR *) m_lpszData[ii], m_lpLength[ii]+1, SQLT_STR, -1, m_lpcbValue[ii], 0, -1, -1, 0, 0);
to
m_rc = OCIDefineByPos( m_hstmt, &pDef, ((CEBOracle*) m_pDatabase)->m_hpErr, ii+1,
          (dvoid *) m_lpszData[ii], m_lpLength[ii]+1, SQLT_STR,
          (dvoid *) m_lpcbValue[ii], (ub2 *) 0, (ub2 *) 0, OCI_DEFAULT );

How do I set the content type ?

Hi
I have to upload a file from my Java Application to a remote servlet.
I have used the HTTPConnection class to connect to the remote servlet and made it call the POST method explicitly.
How do I set the content type of the file I am uploading from my Java apllication?
I tried to change the content type in the doPost method. by giving
req.setContentType("multipart/form-data"); in the doPost.
It still doesnt work..
Is there any way to set the content type in the Java application?
Thanks in advance

What class is your req variable? If your using a HttpServletRequest, then there is no method req.setContentType("");
In the HttpServletResponse this is for telling the web browser or receving medium what kind of mime type to expect.
And what package is the HttpConnection class from?
I think more precise info is required before this question can be answered.

How do i set the contentStyle of textbox in my controller class on pageload

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to set the contentStyle of a textbox as well as the border of textbox as per condition on page load.
I am trying this code but unable to set it properly.
*public void onLoad() {*
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExtendedRenderKitService erks =
Service.getRenderKitService(context, ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
erks.addScript(context,"AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('it15').setProperty('ContentStyle',background-color:#00C0C0);");
Am i missing something ??
Is there any other method to achieve my requirement ?
Please suggest!!
Thanks!!

Hi Accadsoft,
I have tried with this but nothing happens :-
I have used this code in my controller class :-
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExtendedRenderKitService erks =
Service.getRenderKitService(context, ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
erks.addScript(context,"AdfPage.PAGE.findComponentByAbsoluteId('it3').setProperty('ContentStyle',background-color:#00C0C0);");
Please find the below Jspx code snippet as well...:-
<af:form id="f1"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_TimeCostedInvoices.f1}">
<af:panelFormLayout binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_TimeCostedInvoices.pfl1}"
id="pfl1" maxColumns="3" rows="1">
<af:inputText value="#{bindings.Totalamount.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.Totalamount.hints.label}"
required="#{bindings.Totalamount.hints.mandatory}"
columns="#{bindings.Totalamount.hints.displayWidth}"
maximumLength="#{bindings.Totalamount.hints.precision}"
shortDesc="#{bindings.Totalamount.hints.tooltip}"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_TimeCostedInvoices.it3}"
id="it3">
<f:validator binding="#{bindings.Totalamount.validator}"/>
<af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false"
pattern="#{bindings.Totalamount.format}"/>
</af:inputText>
<af:selectOneChoice value="#{bindings.Doctypedesc.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.Doctypedesc.label}"
required="#{bindings.Doctypedesc.hints.mandatory}"
shortDesc="#{bindings.Doctypedesc.hints.tooltip}"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_TimeCostedInvoices.soc1}"
id="soc1"
valueChangeListener="#{backingBeanScope.backing_TimeCostedInvoices.getValue}"
autoSubmit="true">
<f:selectItems value="#{bindings.Doctypedesc.items}"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_TimeCostedInvoices.si1}"
id="si1"/>
</af:selectOneChoice>
</af:panelFormLayout>
</af:form>
I am just thinking whether the syntax is appropriate on this line :-
erks.addScript(context,"AdfPage.PAGE.findComponentByAbsoluteId('it3').setProperty('ContentStyle',background-color:#00C0C0);");
Please suggest!!!

How to set the default behavior of slide effect?

Basically, I am using the spry widget that allow me to do the
click and expand (like how sections get slide up and down) effect.
(Sorry if I don't know the term, I am running a Chinese version...
if it helps at all... it's "滑動" in chinese character)
Is there any way to set it so that the object that being
hidden/revealed stay hidden from the start before the click?
Because of the way I have all my layouts setup, it really destroy
the view if it's revealed from the start.
Thanks in advance!

It seems like the same one, but I can't find the accordion
keyword in any of my code. I have this... which I guess is the code
generated when I insert the widget
"function MM_effectSlide(targetElement, duration, from, to,
toggle)
Spry.Effect.DoSlide(targetElement, {duration: duration,
from: from, to: to, toggle: toggle});
is that the same thing? how would I change it according to
the instruction?
i found the slide effect thing on adobe lab and found out how
to have the element hide initially (by adding display: none; to my
css), but then another weird problem.
i have 8 divs wrap inside a big div "Main" which would be
slid up and down. "Main" slid up and down as expected, but one of
the small div (the first one to be precise) simply disappeared. the
margin that I set for it still display correctly (I set the div to
be 140 px, and there is a 140 px space), but no content (I have a
mouseswap image),
when I remove the display: none; code from the div "Main"
part of the css, then the small div display correctly, with the
mouse swap image.
Did I do something wrong?

Setting the default object style or stroke weight of a document

i can select items and apply created object styles, but i want to change a documents defaults BEFORE i create something?
backgorund - i need to add my logo to the bleed area of my document but i find that if a document has a default of say 5pt stroke weight then it fails when trying to draw my logo before I have a chance to change it saying
"Adobe InDesign CS2 got an error: Requested operation would cause one or more objects to be too small.
Please check whether the stroke weight is too large."

Could you be please more precise ?
If I got the idea, you want to place everytime your logo in the bleed area.
I will first set the bleed area with these instructions :
app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.documentBleedUniformSize = true;
app.activeDocument.documentPreferences.documentBleedTopOffset = 5;
then i will create a rectangle at the point -5,-5
var myframe = app.activeDocument.rectangles .add({geometricBounds:["-5","-5","0","25"]});
//dimensions are what you want
then place the logo.
var myfile = File("logo");
//logo is a filepath "/c/..."
myframe.place(myfile);
Here you are,

Set the dependant requirement dates to be scheduled to order start date

Dear Experts,
The components have been assigned to the relative operations in the routing.
During the lead time scheduling, is it possible to set all the required date of the components to the order start date instead of the operation start date? How to configure?
Thanks,
Dawson

Hi,
In lead time scheduling, the precise production times, that is, the target start date and the target finish date, are specified for materials that are produced in-house. Capacity Requirements are also created during lead time scheduling and the date that the components must be provided is also determined.
You have maintained the following parameters for lead time scheduling in Customizing for MRP by choosing Define scheduling parameters for planned orders:
Parameters for determining the routing
Parameters that determine if and how scheduling is carried out
Parameters that indicate if and how basic dates are to be adjusted
Then
You have assigned a scheduling margin key in the material master record.
You can define the scheduling margin key in Customizing for MRP by choosing Define floats (scheduling margin key).
If You Assign BOM components to the first Operation then all the components are provided on the Basic start date of the production considering all the floats
OR
In a situation where different operations are assigned with different BOM components then we define Lead time off set(+ve on u2013ve value) to have material provision on the basic start date of production order

Setting the "Application" thats displayed in MSSQL 2k

I have a flex project that calls several cfc files. When we
have deadlocks, we want to track down what/who was causing the
lock. In prior versions of coldfusion I heard it was possible to
set the "Application" which was displayed in the process info
listing in mssql. Any idea's on how I could go about modifying the
cfc so that I can set whats displayed in mssql?

There is no way, if you want it to be precise, you need to
outlines by hand.
That's how we do, every single button by hand :)

That's because even tho there is no color, the shape of the
image still remains
rectangular.
> Flash didn't care what part of the image was declared as
being transparent and

was still considered

What you could do (if the image is vector like -limited
colors) it try to trace
it in flash. Flash has the built in feature that traces
raster images into vectors.
Tho, not always produce great results, for some images it's
heaven's sent.
By converting to vector you could than easily delete unwanted
parts and keep just
the shape (group of colors) of that trace for your HIT frame.
If the map however is a photo, they you will have more luck
doing it manually by hand.
I will normally zoom IN allow and just use the brush tool to
draw.
to trace image , select your bitmap, go to Modify - Bitmap -
Trace Bitmap

How do I convert a string to a double, a number loses the precision

I tried converting a string to a double but that limits the precision. I need to convert a string to a double.

If you use the Scan From String function, the default is to convert to a dbl. If you're looking at a front panel indicator, don't confuse the format and precision of the indicator with the type representation. You can set the indicator to display as many digits as you want but that doesn't change the actal number stored in memory.

Set the precision
