Txt File Open w/Auto Exec.vi

I'm trying to open a txt file in notepad (opens by default) using the auto exec.vi.
Using several configurations, all of which I made sure could be ran in cmd in stand alone first.
I've tried a few configurations with it but can't seem to work...
In the configuration I gave a picture of below, the error 2 pops up, that I'm out of memory. There is nothing else running on this system, and with 1GB of memory I can't understand this error.
"LabVIEW: Memory is full.
=========================
NI-488: Write detected no Listeners."
The other configuration was to type a string into the "Command Line" input. Below are the ones I tried...
1) C:\"Documents and Settings"\dleach\desktop\test.txt
Error 123 occurred at System Exec.vi. Command was "C:\"Documents and Settings"\dleach\desktop\test.txt
2) notepad C:\"Documents and Settings"\dleach\desktop\test.txt
Opens Notepad, with error popup "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
am I doing this wrong?

Swing Tutorial:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/index.html
Since you don't know the basic of swing read the tutorial, it is for your own good because it is useless if we provide you with a code you don't even understand and how it works.
If you want a menu read the tutorial about using menus and for opening a file read using JFileChooser.
note: don't use the word urgent because it implies that your problem is more important than others.

Excel 2007 throws "this action is valid for the products which are currently installed" while i try to open .txt file format.

Hello,
We have Windows 2008 r2 TS, on which we have MS office 2007 Standard installed. There are almost 50 users on this particular machine.
The problem is we get an error message when we try to open a .txt file in Excel (Right click on .txt file--> Open with --> Excel). Error message is as follows "this action is valid for the products which are currently installed".
Previously this was faced by all users so we completely reinstalled it, which worked, except for 1 user. Currently i have recreated the profile for that particular user but that also didn't helped.
A drag-drop approach works but user don't want it that way.
Now am clueless in terms of where should i look into. Any help would really be helpful.
Thanks,

[CS3 JS] Reading TXT file content into String

Hello,
I'm currently wanting to display a dialog box that has a dropdown menu containing all countries of the world.
I have an external txt file that contains a list of all countries.
I thought I would simply read-in the contents of the 'txt' file into a string and use it for displaying the list.
For example
i Instead of the usual:
> var myLandMenu = dropdowns.add({stringList:["A", "B"...], selectedIndex:0});
i I thought of doing something like:
> var myLandList = ....? HELP ?....
> var myLandMenu = dropdowns.add({stringList:myLandList, selectedIndex:0});
Is this the way to do it?
What would be the way to read in the text file content as a string?
Thanks in advance,
Lee

> var myLandList = ....? HELP ?....
> var myLandMenu = dropdowns.add({stringList:myLandList, selectedIndex:0});
It's hard to tell from context, but myLandList needs to be an array of strings.
If the file has one element per line, this would be one way of handling the
conversion:
var file = File("~/countries.txt");
file.open("r");
var str = file.read();
file.close();
var myLandList = str.split(/[\r\n]+/);
And assuming that this is ScriptUI and not the older ID UI, the menu creation
would look more like:
var myLandMenu = dropdowns.add(bounds, myLandList);
myLandMenu.items[0].selected = true;

Issue - updating .txt file as a dbs source

Hi gyus, I have following problem (CR 8.5)
for a subreport within a main report, I use a .txt file as a db source (which I connect to via ODBC).
It looks like for example:
Year;Col1;Col2
2007;20;30
2008;25;35
I need to add one more column, so it looked like:
Year;Col1;Col2;Col3
2007;20;30;40
2008;25;35;45
So I edit the txt file, open the report and then I click "Verify Database" in the subreport I expect update to happen, so that I can see a new field among database fields in field explorer dialog so later I could put it into my report. Yet nothing happens, it says "Dtabase is up to date" and the change of the txt file is not recognized by CR.
Any ideas/tips/help appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Martin,
Please try to set the datasource location.
For ODBC Connections
1. On the 'Database' menu, click 'Set Datasource Location'.
2. In the 'Current Data Source' section, click the data source to be changed. You must click each individual table in the data source one by one. If the data source is a stored procedure you will not see individual tables.
NOTE
In Crystal Reports 10, XIR1, and XIR2, if you are mapping from a data source such as a stored procedure where the report designer can not determine which fields should be mapped automatically, you will see a 'Mapping' dialog box where you can manually map fields, as in the procedure cited above.
3. In the 'Replace with' section, click the data source you want the report to use.
4. Click 'Update'.
5. Close the 'Set Datasource Location' window.
The report now points to the new location.
Hope this helps you.
Regards

I want to open a .txt file in the Notepad editor

Dear all,
In my java program, when i click on a menu item, i need a .txt file to be opened in the notepad editor. Can someone please send to tell me how?
Thanks

Is not very portable to specify the absolute path of notepad. If you pass the program to your friend it might not run!
I usually specify only the document.txt and the shell exe file (in windows xp cmd.exe), then the operating system think how to open the file. You can setting the operating system to open all the .txt file with notepad. It is very easy.
The your .txt document in your classpath, so is relative and not absolute.
Here the code:
String cmd = "cmd.exe /c start ";
               String file = "mydocuemnt/manual.txt";
              try {
                    Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd + (ClassLoader.getSystemResource(file)).toString());
               } catch (IOException ee) {
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The document dosn't exist!",
                              "Document not finded!", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                    ee.printStackTrace();
               } bye

How to open and edit "*.txt" file with "Notepad"

Hello guys!
I'm facing problem with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise and got no clue how to solve it.
What I want to do is to open "*.txt" (which is placed to "Documents Library") in "Notepad", so I could edit it and save (publish) directly to SharePoint from "Notepad".
If I upload any Microsoft office File, such as "*.docx", "*.xls", etc - it works as it should - document opens in appropriate application and everybody is happy.
But, when I create documents library, put some "*.txt" file there and click on it - it opens in new browser's tab as text, so I cannot edit the file.
What I tried to do is to activate feature "Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" - not happy.
Edit "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML\DOCICON.XML" - I've modified "txt" entry as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<DocIcons>
    <ByProgID>
    </ByProgID>
    <ByExtension>
<Mapping Key="txt" Value="ictxt.gif" EditText="Notepad" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
    </ByExtension>
    <Default>
        <Mapping Value="icgen.gif"/>
    </Default>
</DocIcons>
Still not happy.
So, how do I make this stuff work?

Found this link which has more information on this scenario:

A programmatic workaround:

Auto delete everything but specified folder contents from txt file

Hey Guys,
I am brand new to using Powershell (like 48 hours into using it for work) and I've run into a bit of an issue. I've only taken a programming concept classes so some of the stuff makes sense to me but a lot of it is new. Basically I've made a
script that automatically deletes any files over X amount of days. My next step is to have an exceptions text that will have a list of folders that should not have its contents deleted. This is what I have so far.
$Date= Get-Date
$Days = "7"
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = $Now.AddDays(-$Days)
#----- getting DO NOT DELETE listing from TXT ----#
$Exceptions = Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt"
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse -Exclude "c:\exclude.txt" | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le "$LastWrite"}
foreach ($File in $Files)
if ($File -ne $NULL)
Remove-Item $File.FullName -Exclude $Exceptions | out-null
I've seen a lot of threads that show how to auto delete contents or how to exclude specific file types but I haven't seen an answer to my particular problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Rabbot,
The script below may be also helpful for you, and uses the -whatif parameter in Remove-Item cmdlet, which doesn’t actually remove anything but simply tells you what would happen if you did call Remove-Item.
$Exceptions = @()
Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt" | foreach{
$Exceptions += $_} #store the exception file to array
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = (get-date).adddays(-7) #over 7 days.
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le $LastWrite} #filter files which over 7 days.
Foreach ($file in $files){
if ($Exceptions -notcontains $file.fullname){ #if the file is not listed in the exception array.
Remove-Item $File.FullName -whatif} #use -whatif to test
I hope this helps.

If you've opened notepad, you won't be able to save the file ON the server, so your question doesn't make sense. Please search, read a book, SAP documentation etc. before posting further basic questions.

How to Open the FailedFilesLog.txt File (statement), and How to Increase the 100 File Limit (question)

It took us a while to figure this out, so I'm posting this in case it's helpful for someone out there. Plus, I have a question...
DPM gave the following error for one of our file servers:
Description: The replica of Volume D:\ on <servername> is inconsistent with the protected data source. Number of files skipped for synchronization due to errors has exceeded the maximum allowed limit of 100 files on this data
source (ID 32538 Details: Internal error code: 0x809909FE)
Recommended action: Review the failure errors for individual files from the log file
\\?\Volume{8492c150-f195-11de-a186-001cc4ef89a0}\B1E9D373-2C03-464E-A472-99BC93DB1E2A\FailedFilesLog.txt and take appropriate action. If some files fail consistently, you can exclude the folders containing these files by modifying the protection group or
moving the files to another location.
So, how do you actually open the FailedFilesLog.txt file shown in this DPM alert? What is this path referring to? Well, this is the mount point for the protected server's replica volume on the DPM server, which is mounted under \Program
Files\Microsoft DPM\DPM\Volumes\Replica\servername\File System. Here you'll see the mount points for all of the server's protected volumes. However, if you try to open one of these mounted volumes
in Windows Explorer, you'll get Access Denied, even if you have administrator rights. (If someone knows of a way around this, please let me know). As a workaround, you can access this mounted volume in an elevated
command prompt. Steps:
Open an Administrator Command Prompt
Type mountvol <AnyAvailableDriveLetter>: \\?\Volume{VolumeGUID}
Example: mountvol m: \\?\Volume{8492c150-f195-11de-a186-001cc4ef89a0} Note that we're only using the first part of the path to the FailedFilesLog.txt
file given in the DPM alert, starting from \\? and ending after the
} character.
Next, type m: to change to the newly mounted m: drive.
Then type cd B1E9D373-2C03-464E-A472-99BC93DB1E2A This is actually a folder name so we're just going into this folder.
Finally type dir and you should see the FailedFilesLog.txt file. This file can be copied to another location where it's easier to use (i.e. in Windows Explorer).
Be sure to unmount this volume when you're done by typing mountvol m: /d in the command prompt. (Mountvol reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772586(WS.10).aspx.)
What a pain, eh? But at least by reviewing the FailedFilesLog.txt file you can determine which files or folders caused the sync to fail and thus take action accordingly.
Now, here's my question: Where is that registry key that lets me adjust the limit of 100 files that DPM allows to be skipped before it fails the replica? Hopefully someone out there will tell me. I know this can be done because Kapil Malhotra
said so in this post:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dataprotectionmanager/browse_thread/thread/a179fa30fb50c9b0/e9a348f2a9386063?lnk=raot.
Also, does anyone know what the internal error code 0x809909FE means in this alert? Knowing this my help us determine what caused these files to fail. Interestingly, in the FailedFilesLog.txt file, it gave a different error code next to each failed file:
0x80070002.
-Taylorbox

Thanks for responding, Fahd. So, just to be sure...
Do I add this registry key to the DPM server or to the protected servers (or both)?
In either case, the ContinueOnFailure key does not currently exist. So, I must create this key and the MaxFailedFiles DWORD value
manually, right?
Does the server in which I create this regkey have to be restarted for it to take affect?
Can the DPM alert for the 0x809909FE error event (for exceeding the limit of 100 failures) please be adjusted to provide a path to the FailedFilesLog.txt file
that actually works if you click on it?
Any ideas on why the 0x80070002 "File not found" error happened? The files on the server were simply created and then deleted. Why would such file activity lead to this error?
Thanks,
-Taylorbox

Is there a way to create a button on the front panel that would automatically open the txt file data is being stored to?

I am saving data read from FieldPoint to a .txt file. Is there a way to create a button on the front panel so that when the user pushes this button it automatically opens the .txt folder in notepad? I want to bypass the user having to find the file in the computer in order to open it.

Hi jem,
I suggest that you break this up into three seperate questions and re-post to this list. That way you get more ideas from others that may have better insites than myself.
Re:the sysexec
The Sysexec will allow you to execute a dos command. This is the equivalent of going to
Start>>>Run
What you should do is find the proper DOS command sysntax that is required to open a text file in notepad or your favorite editor. Once you know what a good DOS command is, you should pass that string to the Sysexec.VI. The Sysexec has an input that allows you to choose if the code waits for the command to complete or if it should just start the program and let it run in the background. Sysexec will open its own window to run the command you speci
fiy.

Opening .txt file - Need another set of eyes

Hi folks - The attached file opens in Notepad and MS Excel as 9999 rows x 3 columns (X,Y,Z values, respectively). I have tried different delimiters using 'Read From Spreadsheet File.vi' to bring in all the data but only successful bringing in the first column of 9999 values. Can someone take a look at this and give me the trickto get it open using LabVIEW? I expect it is something very simple but it is a Monday, isn't it?
