Several if-clauses in an expression-box

Hello,
i've added a new column (expression-box | type: text) to a table-view.
But the following expression does not work (syntax-error). Is there a possibility to have serveral if-clauses in an expression box.
IF(@INITIATIVE != '',@INITIATIVE,'')
OR
IF(@MEASURE != '',@MEASURE,'')
OR
IF(@OBJECTIVE != '',@OBJECTIVE,'')
OR
IF(@PERSPECTIVE != '',@PERSPECTIVE,')
OR
IF(@STRATEGY != '',@STRATEGY,'')
Thank you for your help!

You can use the '? :' operators in EL
e.g.. following code is genered by JHS for tables:
emptyText="#{bindings.MyVOTable.viewable ? 'No rows yet.' : 'Access Denied.'}"

  • How can I extend an Airport Express in WLAN mode with an additional Airport Express box

    I'm trying to extend the existing WLAN with an additonal Airport Express box. I read through a bunch of comment throughout the communities here but didn't find what I'm looking for.
    My actual Installation consists:
    A Time Capsule attached to the Internet router which set up my 1. WLAN range
    This WLAN has been extended with an Airport Express BOX creating my extended 2. WLAN range
    Now I intend the extend the 2nd WLAN of the Airport Express BOX with an additional Airport Express (creating a 3rd WLAN range) but don't find a way on how to set it up correctly.
    The physical situation of the location dosen't allow me to add / replace cabeling (Ethernet or similar). If there is any chance I'd like to avoid power-line connections. And, I'm aware of the impacted bandwith on WLAN / WLAN extensions, but can deal with this.
    Regards and thanks for any advice

    Two requirements that must be met to do what you want.......
    1) An AirPort Express 802.11n must be used. Check the Model No on the label on the side of the Express. It needs to be A1264. Any other model number will not do what you want.
    2) The Express must be configured to "Join a wireless network" and the option to enable Ethernet Clients must be checked. 
    Open AirPort Utility and click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    The box to "Allow Ethernet Clients" must be checked
    Please check to verify that your AirPort Express meets both requirements

    Please do not duplicate a thread. The threads are answered as soon as possible. We are not Adobe. Just user to user.
    I have answered your most recent of the duplicates
    Premier Elements 13 Organizer Works. Editor doesn't. Log in doesn't work
    It is uncertain just how far we can go to help you since you do not appear to have Premiere Elements any
    longer.Seems you demanded a refund from Adobe Chat, got it, and now are left with a non purchased program which I
    am not sure can be used.
    Duplicates tend to confuse the person asking the question as well as those attempting to reply. As I suggested in the
    above mentioned thread, try to sort out your situation with Adobe via its Adobe Chat.

  • Expression Box Calculation Error

    I have displayed the output of a query in a table. One of the columns in
    the table shows 'Creation Date'. So I add an 'expression box' to the
    table and enter the following expression in the Formatting Custom tab...
    NSTR(DSUB(@Creation_Date,NOW(),'D'),'M')
    The objective is to display the number of days lapsed since the record
    was created on each row of the table. The system keeps returning -14018
    or some other garbage on each row.
    Please help.

    The latest screenshot on this issue is attached. After adding DVAL and using DSTR to convert to the desired date format. The results are nonsensical and useless. System somehow is calculating negative values for dates beyond the current calender month.
    In screenshot, STR1 is the Creation Date after some formatting and STR2 is the current date. ff is the column showing the difference in days between the two dates using the following command
    DSUB(DVAL(@STR2),DVAL(@STR1),'D')

  • Capitalization in Infopath Expression Box

    Hello,
    I have a first and last name in a single expression box and wanted the first and last name to capitalize if typed in. I have already accomplished this using: 
    concat(substring(translate(Recipient Name, "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"), 1, 1), substring(Recipient Name, 2, string-length(Recipient Name) - 1))
    for the first word; and
    concat(substring-before(Recipient Name, " "), " ", translate(substring(substring-after(Recipient Name, " "), 1, 1), "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"), substring(substring-after(Recipient
    Name, " "), 2, string-length(Recipient Name) - 1))
    for the second.
    My question is: I would also like it if the user types in ALL CAPS, to just upper the first letter of the first word and the first letter of the last word with the rest lower case. My attempts to do this however have resulted in an infinite loop. Any ideas
    or a way around this loop problem.
    Many thanks!

  • How do I set up Express box as addition to existing WIFI router?

    Used to be able to do this when setting up the Express box, as I did years ago at home. But there's no option in the install process to enable this - which renders the product pretty useless.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers
    Neil

    Hi Bob
    thanks for getting responding to my request.
    When I originally set up Airport express network at home, the set up software gave a couple of options, to either be a stand alone wifi node, or be added to existing router - not necessariy an Apple one - I have a Netgear router at home. This was a decade or so ago.
    We recently bought Airport Express box for the office as we want to stream music to it and the set uo software has changed in that it insists the Airport Express box is connected to a router with a cable - which defeats the point of a WIFI product.
    So - my question was how to do this as it is insane that a wifi box cannot connect via wifi to a wifi router.
    However we found a solution by using the Apple Remote app to set up the Airport Express box so that it has been added to the Netgear router we have in the office.
    So - it turns out you can connect an Apple Airport express box wirelessly to a non Apple wireless router, but not with Apple Airport assistant utility - you have to use Remote on an iPhone.
    This isn't how I'd configure the products, but hey, what do I know?
    Cheers

  • Expression box problem!

    Hy, i have this problem: i add a column on table of type expression box because i need to calculate a value by a formula. This formula use value's from another column on the same table and a value contained on data store object.
    the problem is that, a runtime, the formula is calculated only after  that i doing a click on the row.
    It's possibile to execute the formula when open the model e not after click the row on the table?
    Thank's a lot.
    Sincerely yours
    Andrea Maraviglia

    Hi ,
    yes you can do it without using any action button.
    Just put that formula in Expression filed in general tab of colum's control properties.
    you told after clicking on some button its giving the out put that means you are created button with some action and given that action to this coulm field.
    so just delete that action button and use above solution.

  • In the expression editor dialog box my TAB key doesn't function correctly

    This is bizarre behavior that seems to have started recently.
    In Visual Studio 2012, an SSRS project, any expression editor dialog:
    The tab key doesn't work right.
    Open the expression editor and:
    * I see a blinking cursor and I can type in the expression box.
    * If I hit the tab key, the cursor disappears and I cannot type.  I appear to lose focus in the editor but focus doesn't appear to go anywhere else in the dialog box.
    * If I hit the tab key a 2nd time, the cursor is still gone and I cannot type. 
    * If I hit the tab key a 3rd time, I can finally type again and note that I am now
    3 tabstops in.  In other words it seems like the tabs were working but I lost the ability to type anything until I "tab" 3 magical times. 
    I can work around this by hitting tab key then grabbing the mouse and clicking where the cursor SHOULD be which returns focus to the text area.
    Hopefully this image helps clarify:
    Anybody know what is wrong?

    Hi Bostaevski,
    Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
    According to your description, as you said that the cursor disappears and cannot type issue. It seems that the issue may be not Visual Studio the VS IDE issue.
    In addition, I find a similar thread about the
    Expression Editor Cursor Issue,
    please see:  
    http://www.beta.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedbackdetail/view/780682/vs-2012-rdlc-expression-editor-cursor-issue#.
    Therefore, I suggest you could also try to press alt with left and right arrow keys and check if it is works fine.
    Thnank for your understanding!

  • Where clause as expression value for parameter?

    Is it possible to put a where clause in a expression so I could use as a parameter? I have 3 documents I was going to make as available values, but not sure how to put all of this in the expression. 
    Where clause:
    where document = 'doc1'
    and sentdate = (Select max(sentdate) from Communication where document = 'doc1')

    Hi Lezgettdrunk,
    According to your description, you want to specify available values for a report parameter.
    In Reporting Services, if we want to specify the available values for a report parameter in Report Parameter Properties, we should get those values from specified values or a dataset. When we select the “Specify values” option, we can give each label corresponding
    value. When we select the “Get values from a query” option, we should select a dataset which contains documents values. In your scenario, you could create a dataset with where clause to get document values, then specify parameter available values use this
    dataset.
    Reference:
    Lesson 2: Adding Parameters to Create a List of Available Values (SSRS)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • Can I add a Airport Express to my existing network without hardwiring it?

    I want to extend the range and services of my existing home network.
    It is wired on the first floor from the cable modem to a Cisco 4-port BEFSR41 router to a hub feeding a micro cell, several Windows boxes, a Roku2 box and an NAS.
    One of the router ports feeds a  Netgear Wireless-N Access Point WN802T v2 mounted near the first floor ceiling.
    That feeds enough signal through to the second floor but it's somewhat weak at the farthest rooms.
    The wife won't let me run cat5e between floors or open up walls.
    If I put an Airport Express box of some sort on the second floor above the WAP would the two talk to each other and extend my range out across the second floor (and provide print server functions as well)?
    Can I then roam on both floors with her win7 laptop and my iPad seamlessly?
    Once upton a time I could spell computer. I'm not sure anymore.
    Any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks

    I'd suggest you ask in the Airport forum. This being the iPad forum, this probably isn't the place where you'll be most likely to get quick and accurate responses. I know that an Airport Express can be used as a range extender for other Airport access points, but I don't know whether it will work with a Netgear. Netgear probably has something that will work if a Airport won't.
    Regards.

  • Introduction to regular expressions ...

    I'm well aware that there are already some articles on that topic, some people asked me to share some of my knowledge on this topic. Please take a look at this first part and let me know if you find this useful. If yes, I'm going to continue on writing more parts using more and more complicated expressions - if you have questions or problems that you think could be solved through regular expression, please post them.
    Introduction
    Oracle has always provided some character/string functions in its PL/SQL command set, such as SUBSTR, REPLACE or TRANSLATE. With 10g, Oracle finally gave us, the users, the developers and of course the DBAs regular expressions. However, regular expressions, due to their sometimes cryptic rules, seem to be overlooked quite often, despite the existence of some very interesing use cases. Beeing one of the advocates of regular expression, I thought I'll give the interested audience an introduction to these new functions in several installments.
    Having fun with regular expressions - Part 1
    Oracle offers the use of regular expression through several functions: REGEXP_INSTR, REGEXP_SUBSTR, REGEXP_REPLACE and REGEXP_LIKE. The second part of each function already gives away its purpose: INSTR for finding a position inside a string, SUBSTR for extracting a part of a string, REPLACE for replacing parts of a string. REGEXP_LIKE is a special case since it could be compared to the LIKE operator and is therefore usually used in comparisons like IF statements or WHERE clauses.
    Regular expressions excel, in my opinion, in search and extraction of strings, using that for finding or replacing certain strings or check for certain formatting criterias. They're not very good at formatting strings itself, except for some special cases I'm going to demonstrate.
    If you're not familiar with regular expression, you should take a look at the definition in Oracle's user guide Using Regular Expressions With Oracle Database, and please note that there have been some changes and advancements in 10g2. I'll provide examples, that should work on both versions.
    Some of you probably already encountered this problem: checking a number inside a string, because, for whatever reason, a column was defined as VARCHAR2 and not as NUMBER as one would have expected.
    Let's check for all rows where column col1 does NOT include an unsigned integer. I'll use this SELECT for demonstrating different values and search patterns:
    WITH t AS (SELECT '456' col1
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '123x'
                 FROM dual
                UNION  
               SELECT 'x123'
                 FROM dual
                UNION 
               SELECT 'y'
                 FROM dual
                UNION 
               SELECT '+789'
                 FROM dual
                UNION 
               SELECT '-789'
                 FROM dual
                UNION 
               SELECT '159-'
                 FROM dual
                UNION 
               SELECT '-1-'
                 FROM dual
    SELECT t.col1
      FROM t
    WHERE NOT REGEXP_LIKE(t.col1, '^[0-9]+$')
    ;Let's take a look at the 2nd argument of this REGEXP function: '^[0-9]+$'. Translated it would mean: start at the beginning of the string, check if there's one or more characters in the range between '0' and '9' (also called a matching character list) until the end of this string. "^", "[", "]", "+", "$" are all Metacharacters.
    To understand regular expressions, you have to "think" in regular expressions. Each regular expression tries to "fit" an available string into its pattern and returns a result beeing successful or not, depending on the function. The "art" of using regular expressions is to construct the right search pattern for a certain task. Using functions like TRANSLATE or REPLACE did already teach you using search patterns, regular expressions are just an extension to this paradigma. Another side note: most of the search patterns are placeholders for single characters, not strings.
    I'll take this example a bit further. What would happen if we would remove the "$" in our example? "$" means: (until the) end of a string. Without this, this expression would only search digits from the beginning until it encounters either another character or the end of the string. So this time, '123x' would be removed from the SELECTION since it does fit into the pattern.
    Another change: we will keep the "$" but remove the "^". This character has several meanings, but in this case it declares: (start from the) beginning of a string. Without it, the function will search for a part of a string that has only digits until the end of the searched string. 'x123' would now be removed from our selection.
    Now there's a question: what happens if I remove both, "^" and "$"? Well, just think about it. We now ask to find any string that contains at least one or more digits, so both '123x' and 'x123' will not show up in the result.
    So what if I want to look for signed integer, since "+" is also used for a search expression. Escaping is the name of the game. We'll just use '^\+[0-9]+$' Did you notice the "\" before the first "+"? This is now a search pattern for the plus sign.
    Should signed integers include negative numbers as well? Of course they should, and I'll once again use a matching character list. In this list, I don't need to do escaping, although it is possible. The result string would now look like this: '^[+-]?[0-9]+$'. Did you notice the "?"? This is another metacharacter that changes the placeholder for plus and minus to an optional placeholder, which means: if there's a "+" or "-", that's ok, if there's none, that's also ok. Only if there's a different character, then again the search pattern will fail.
    Addendum: From this on, I found a mistake in my examples. If you would have tested my old examples with test data that would have included multiple signs strings, like "--", "-+", "++", they would have been filtered by the SELECT statement. I mistakenly used the "*" instead of the "?" operator. The reason why this is a bad idea, can also be found in the user guide: the "*" meta character is defined as 0 to multiple occurrences.
    Looking at the values, one could ask the question: what about the integers with a trailing sign? Quite simple, right? Let's just add another '[+-] and the search pattern would look like this: '^[+-]?[0-9]+[+-]?$'.
    Wait a minute, what happened to the row with the column value "-1-"?
    You probably already guessed it: the new pattern qualifies this one also as a valid string. I could now split this pattern into several conditions combined through a logical OR, but there's something even better: a logical OR inside the regular expression. It's symbol is "|", the pipe sign.
    Changing the search pattern again to something like this '^[+-]?[0-9]+$|^[0-9]+[+-]?$' [1] would return now the "-1-" value. Do I have to duplicate the same elements like "^" and "$", what about more complicated, repeating elements in future examples? That's where subexpressions/grouping comes into play. If I want only certain parts of the search pattern using an OR operator, we can put those inside round brackets. '^([+-]?[0-9]+|[0-9]+[+-]?)$' serves the same purpose and allows for further checks without duplicating the whole pattern.
    Now looking for integers is nice, but what about decimal numbers? Those may be a bit more complicated, but all I have to do is again to think in (meta) characters. I'll just use an example where the decimal point is represented by ".", which again needs escaping, since it's also the place holder in regular expressions for "any character".
    Valid decimals in my example would be ".0", "0.0", "0.", "0" (integer of course) but not ".". If you want, you can test it with the TO_NUMBER function. Finding such an unsigned decimal number could then be formulated like this: from the beginning of a string we will either allow a decimal point plus any number of digits OR at least one digits plus an optional decimal point followed by optional any number of digits. Think about it for a minute, how would you formulate such a search pattern?
    Compare your solution to this one:
    '^(\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+(\.[0-9]*)?)$'
    Addendum: Here I have to use both "?" and "*" to make sure, that I can have 0 to many digits after the decimal point, but only 0 to 1 occurrence of this substrings. Otherwise, strings like "1.9.9.9" would be possible, if I would write it like this:
    '^(\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+(\.[0-9]*)*)$'Some of you now might say: Hey, what about signed decimal numbers? You could of course combine all the ideas so far and you will end up with a very long and almost unreadable search pattern, or you start combining several regular expression functions. Think about it: Why put all the search patterns into one function? Why not split those into several steps like "check for a valid decimal" and "check for sign".
    I'll just use another SELECT to show what I want to do:
    WITH t AS (SELECT '0' col1
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '0.' 
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '.0' 
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '0.0' 
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '-1.0' 
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '.1-' 
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '.' 
                 FROM dual
                UNION
               SELECT '-1.1-' 
                 FROM dual
    SELECT t.*
      FROM t
    ;From this select, the only rows I need to find are those with the column values "." and "-1.1-". I'll start this with a check for valid signs. Since I want to combine this with the check for valid decimals, I'll first try to extract a substring with valid signs through the REGEXP_SUBSTR function:
    NVL(REGEXP_SUBSTR(t.col1, '^([+-]?[^+-]+|[^+-]+[+-]?)$'), ' ')Remember the OR operator and the matching character collections? But several "^"? Some of the meta characters inside a search pattern can have different meanings, depending on their positions and combination with other meta characters. In this case, the pattern translates into: from the beginning of the string search for "+" or "-" followed by at least another character that is not "+" or "-". The second pattern after the "|" OR operator does the same for a sign at the end of the string.
    This only checks for a sign but not if there also only digits and a decimal point inside the string. If the search string fails, for example when we have more than one sign like in the "-1.1-", the function returns NULL. NULL and LIKE don't go together very well, so we'll just add NVL with a default value that tells the LIKE to ignore this string, in this case a space.
    All we have to do now is to combine the check for the sign and the check for a valid decimal number, but don't forget an option for the signs at the beginning or end of the string, otherwise your second check will fail on the signed decimals. Are you ready?
    Does your solution look a bit like this?
    WHERE NOT REGEXP_LIKE(NVL(REGEXP_SUBSTR(t.col1,
                               '^([+-]?[^+-]+|[^+-]+[+-]?)$'),
                           '^[+-]?(\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+(\.[0-9]*)?)[+-]?$'
                          )Now the optional sign checks in the REGEXP_LIKE argument can be added to both ends, since the SUBSTR won't allow any string with signs on both ends. Thinking in regular expression again.

    Excellent write up CD. Very nice indeed. Hopefully you'll be completing parts 2 and 3 some time soon. And with any luck, your article will encourage others to do the same....I know there's a few I'd like to see and a few I'd like to have a go at writing too :-)

  • Multiple AirPort Express speakers disappear and/or stop working on iTunes

    I have three AirPort Express with iTunes boxes. They are wired to my LAN (using the ethernet port). Not to long ago I noticed that there was an update for them and I updated them to V6.3.
    Things seemed to be fine. In the meantime, I just happened to notice that the latest iTunes allows me to multicast to multiple remote speakers. So, I started using this multicast (I assume it's multicast) feature to hook up to a couple of remote speakers. Everthing worked fine and has worked fine for several days.
    Then this morning, I noticed that two of the remote speakers didn't show up and the third airport showed up, but had a greyed exclamation point after it and I also noticed that the speakers weren't working on that remote airport. When I unchecked the remote speaker in iTunes, it completely disappeared.
    The three airport express boxes seem to be working (they're all solid green), but the remote speakers don't work. I realize that just having a solid green doesn't necesarily mean they're working, but well, that was the extent of my investigation. Anyway....
    I brought up the airport admin tool and didn't really know how to reset the airport without changing something so I changed the text in the location field and updated the airport. Once I did this the remote speaker showed up in iTunes, so I reset all of the airports and this seemed to get the remote speakers to showup again. I'm sure a power cycle would work as well, but I was too lazy to walk all over the house and power cycle them.
    Does anyone know if this is a known problem or is there something that I've got configured wrong?
    Mac mini & Power Mac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    The three most common problems encountered with mutiple AX's:
    Itunes software (need 6.02 or better)
    AX firmware (need 6.3)
    Firewall (you must ALLOW UDP traffic)
    If all these items are met then usually what remains is configuration and/or a range problem. Since it sounds as though it works singularly, range is not the issue. Check the three most common and if they are right you are left with re-configuring the network or possibly (but unlikely based on the post) a bad unit.

  • Airport Express not recognized in iTunes- reset not working.

    I have spent 2 days trying everything I've read here in these forums to RESET my Express.
    I've done a soft & a hard reset each several times.
    I've tried unplugging the Express overnight.
    I've upoaded new firmware.
    I've discarded the new file created each time in the Airport configuration folder.
    The reset seems to work....but then my Express is not connecting to iTunes. That is the new config shows up in the pop up menu in iTunes but does not complete the connection. I only use the box for remote connection of my music system. I've tried to set the Express up with each of the 2 choices in the AirPort Setup Assistant, ie. extending the range or a new network. Also, the light which is normally not flashing is indeed flashing. I've had Express functioning fine for over a year, this issue has happened only once before. Last time I was able to reconfigure successfully. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    My set up is as follows:
    G4 destop with Airport base station, iBook wireless which I'm using to config. the Express box.

    To set up the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a "Wireless Client," using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
    AirPort tab
    - Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
    - Wireless Network: <type in your wireless network name or select it from the pop-up menu>
    - Wireless Security: Not enabled
    OR, if you are using security on your wireless network:
    Security Options
    Change Wireless Security
    - Wireless Security: <Select the appropriate level of security for your wireless network: 40-bit WEP|128-bit WEP | WPA Personal | WPA Enterprise>
    - Password: <enter your wireless network security password or key>
    Music tab (optional)
    - Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    - iTunes Speaker Name: <enter name of speaker for iTunes remote speaker list>

  • Can Express extend the range of a wired router

    Airport Express box reads "can extend the range only of an Airport Extreme or Airport Express wireless network". My daughter is moving into a college-town house that has (I think from the cable company) a 6 port wired router that sends a wall outlet ethernet connection to 6 rooms. If I don't or can't replace the router can I use the Airport Express and plug it near one of the 6 ethernet jacks? Can I use a Linksys Wireless Access Point device, or, is it like the Geek Squad wannabe salesman at Best Buy said, "It will be very hard for your daughter to configure this. You have to have the right settings".
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Like I said it can be done, I would probably change there Router to a Multiport wireless router, and change it out.
    There are several different options. you just need to decide what you want to do.
    If you feel uncomfortable about doing it yourself, Get a hold of your friend that is a wizard and have him do it. It really is not that tough. but if you are not comfortable, or not sure what and how then leave it.
    I can't believe it isn't already wireless.

  • Add or Edit Text Dialog Box Disappeared

    I am attempting to add text to my pdf using the add or edit text tool in Acrobat Pro X. However, the dialog box that allows me to change fonts, size, color, etc. has disappeared. Does anyone know how to make the dialog box come back?

    Hi,
    This is a new problem. It started about 2 days before I posted the question. I have not updated my Acrobat recently and I was previously able to use the dialog box with no problem. I have tried in several different documents and the dialog box is not showing up.
    Thanks for your assistance.
