Trim spaces in metadata upon entry
Lightroom accepts leading or trailing spaces (or all spaces) in string metadata, which makes for some very strange behavior sometimes, since:
'San Francisco '
is not the same as
'San Francisco'
in the City (& Sublocation) fields anyway - I haven't checked all of them.
according to Lightroom, but looks the same to the user (apostrophes are not there in the metadata, they are included in this post just so you can see where the space is...
The leading spaces are easier to catch, but still.

Automatically populate email text upon entry of send email screen...
CRM 7
Within the Account/Activity screen a user can choose More->Send_email and an empty email form is displayed to be completed.
We want to default the content via an email template in some way. Email templates are used extensively within CRM (services/marketing etc) so I wondered if there is a standard transaction which allows for an email template to be set up for a certain configuration.
Failing that, I wondered if anyone had automatically populated the email text upon entry of the screen. We need to autopopulate it with some standard text and possibly a URL with references back to the Account/Activity.
JasonJason,
Yep I have done this before. You can either use a copy control BADI to generate the text template or use text copy determination.
The way this works is the following:
1) The activity is transaction type A
2) The e-mail is transaction type B
Setup copy control procedure with a custom routine from A->B. In your copy control routine, populate the parts of the e-mail transaction as needed.
The other option is to have a text element on the activity be generated when saving via the CRMV_EVENT framework. Then for the e-mail transaction you use a text determination procedure to read the created text over.
Take care,

First time I press the space-bar the text entry hangs for several seconds
Hi,
When entering text, the first time I press the space-bar the text entry hangs for several seconds.
From then on, there are no problems when entering text.
iPhone 3G, iOS 4.2.1, no automatic correction and no spell checking.
Thanks,
OfirDidn't resolve the problem
There was some duplicated fonts fixed, but there wasn't the problem.
Right now i'm writin this in Firefox and here is fine. Couldn't do this in Safari.
I did make a video showing the problem.
Also strange is the fact that in some tabs there isn't (aparently) the problem in Safari.
Any other ideas?
Tks

Forms 10gR2 does not trim spaces
Hi,
we are planning to migrate to 10g from 6i. as far as i know forms always trims trailing spaces. so when we are inserting space to a table it inserts null.
but at 10gR2 it does not trims spaces and inserts non-null value.
Am i missing something or is it really changed?
Regards. Engin.I had fogotten about that bug. But it still exists, even in Forms 6i, patch 17 (6.0.8.26.0)
I ran this test:
Declare
v1 varchar2(4);
v2 varchar2(4);
v3 varchar2(4);
Begin
v1 := ' '; -- one space
select nvl(v1,'X'), v1 into v2, v3 from dual;
message
('V2=' || v2 || ', Length(V2) = ' || nvl(Length(v2),0) );
message
('V3=' || v3 || ', Length(V3) = ' || nvl(Length(v3),0) );
End;And I get the following messages:
V2=X, Length(V2) = 1
V3=, Length(V3) = 0Run under SQL Plus, changing Message to DBMS_Output.Put_Line:
V2= , Length(V2) = 1
V3= , Length(V3) = 1I get the correct result, the same as SQL Plus, in Forms 10.1.2.0.2. -
Error While creating a rule for trimming spaces
Hi All,
Please can you tell me the correct syntax for trimming the Spaces from the beginning of the word.
I tried like this but it is giving error as below:
BEGIN RETURN
ltrim($SPACES_TRIM, '');
END
ERROR: The return statement is expected to return a conditional value: found type<VARCHAR>. (COR-10622)
Please do help me its urgent.
Thanks & Regards,
DJHi Deepak,
when you create validation rules they always have to return TRUE or FALSE conditions. (A record can pass or fail your expression.
So your expression above returns a VARCHAR string, as you can read in the User guide, you are replacing leading nothing '' at the beginning of your string $SPACES_TRIM.
You need to understand basic concept for validation rule expressions and use of functions.
There are lots of great product tutorials here on the SCN, that describe scope, features and functionalities of Information Steward, so you got a understanding of what you can do with IS.

Flash Builder 4 List controls trimming spaces from XML node values
I'm trying to migrate my Flex 3 application to Flash builder 4. One issue that I have is that one of my datasources returns a list of cities and regions. To get the regions to display in the correct order in Flex 3, a space was added to to their name in the database (ie. "West", "Northwest" are stored in the database as " West" and " Northwest" so that when sorted by the sql query they would appear at the top and gets translated to XML to fill in a list box or combo box in my Flex 3 application. I have functions that take that selected city or region value from the combo box and queries the database for various performance metrics. In migrating to Flash Builder 4, I noticed that the spaces in the region names no longer appear in the combo boxes. When I show the data in a datagrid, the spaces are still there but when populating a combo box or list box, the leading space gets trimmed. This is an issue since if a user selects the value "West", it doesn't find it in the database since it is listed as " West". This wasn't an issue in Flex Buider 3. Is there a work around or parameter that I can set to force the combo box or list box to show the data as-is versus having it trim off the leading spaces for my regions?
Also, a stupid question, in Flex 3, you were able to find the select value of a combo box by using comboBox.text. What is the equivalent in Flash Builder 4? Do I need to do comboBox.selectedItem.Region.toString() now or is there a shortcut to pull the text from the combo box?I think you want this:
private function onLoadPortfolioData(event:ResultEvent):void
var obj:XMLList = event.result.img as XMLList;
if (obj.length > 0)
_imgCollection = new XMLListCollection(obj);
pictureList.dataProvider = _imgCollection;
If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such. Thanks!

DB adapter - Trim spaces in column
Hi,
We are facing an issue while using DB adapter when retrieving data from a column (VARCHAR2).
Our column contains data like 'XXXX<spaces>XXX<spaces>'. Whenever we retrieve this column using Db adapter (both custom sql and Select option) and we are getting data with spaces trimmed.
For eg- Data is "1234 34456 3444". Db adapter retrieves this as 1234344563444.
We need the data to be retrieved as existing in the column.
Please let us know if anyone has seen this before, any inputs will be appreciated.
Regards,
ARPLHi,
I think it's very unlikely DbAdapter would remove spaces from the middle in a string... There's probably another problem associated...
If confirmed open a SR with Oracle Support.
Cheers,

Hello Experts;
I have a table similar to this below
create table tbl_one
ID varchar(1000),
date_required date,
);Users tend to supply me with insert statement such as this below
insert into tbl_one values (' This boy ', sysdate);
insert into tbl_one values (' This child ', sysdate);
insert into tbl_one values (' This person ', sysdate);is there a way, I can add a functionality to my table that will automatically strip the leading and lagging space before it saves in the table.... All help is appreciated. Thank you'automatically' would indicate that you want a trigger.
Something along the lines of (untested)...
create trigger trg_tbl_one_i
before insert on tbl_one
for each row
begin
:new.id = trim(:new.id);

Storage spaces , stale metadata
Hi!
First of all, unfortuneatly I wasn't able to attach screenshots, so I'll try to describe the problem in text.
I ran in to a storage spaces problem on a Windows server 2012 where the pool is degraded. Disk 9 seems to have been evicted to the primordial pool.
Running the Get-PhysicalDisk shows a Stale Metadata operational status.
PhysicalDisk9 False Stale Metadata Warning
Auto-Select
However, I've got no alerts from our SCOM monitoring regarding this. Also when looking in the raid tools supplied by the JBOD manufacturer everything seems to be fine, so I got no alerts from that one either. In the manufacturers software the disk
is reported as Status: available with 0 SMART errors.
So the question is: What is the stale metadata error? Is this disk actually broken? (doesnt seem like that according to the vendors utilitys). Should this disk be replaced or is it some kind of software errror that can be repaired?
Advice needed.
BR
PeterHi,
the same here, latest Windows 2012 R2 updates were installed. LB Policy is FOO. It is a SOFS Cluster with 2 Nodes and 4JBODS

What cloud be the reasons for "Stale Metadata" in Storage Spaces ?

Trigger or sql statments to trim spaces??
Dears,
I am receiving some data in some kind of stagging tables with some columns having extra spaces ... so is it faster and / or better to create a trigger on those tables to trim those spaces before insert or shall i trim when retrieving data from those tables?? note that this data will not be retrieved more than two times as its part of migration process.
Thanks in advance,
Swaid McKeyHow did you perform the import? imp <username>/<password>@<ORACLE_SID> fromuser=<srcusername> touser=<destusername> file=<dumpfilename> tables='<tablename>' log=<logfilename> BUFFER=2048000 RECORDLENGTH=64000
Where did the source dump file come from? if i got u right from informix dynamic server (src) to oracle 9i (intermediate) then to oracle 9i (stagging)
How did you "processing and moving data to final destination"? with pl/sql procedures selecting from stagging inserting into dist with updates in the middle.
How did you "updating the the table by trimming the> column"? update emp
set name=rtrim(name);
How many tables are we talking about? 13 table
How many columns need to be trimmed? 1 to 2 columns per table
How many rows are there? as i said before 11million
How did you take these timings?using shell script, i record the time before & after.
How did you write hte migration?cursor --> open --> loop --> fetch --> inserts --> updates --> end loop
Why are you going via a dump file to do the migration?because of the agreement with the other party
Why are you using staging tables? Are you performing other transforms on the staging tables?i only query from them but i do transform the data before inserting in the destination
Where are the spaces? leading or trailing? or both?trailing
what are the data types?VARCHAR2 (20)
Are there object types involved?no
Do the target tables already have triggers on them for other reasons?no
