Using a script to match data with text

I don't know a lot about writing code so perhaps one of you can come up with a solution to this repetitive task.
I have created a 232 page catalog. All products in the catalog have either an ISBN number, product number, or UPC listed with them.
In order to create the digital, shoppable version of the catalog for our website, we are having to go through an manually put hyperlinks in for each number/product. Each product will also, obviously, have a separate URL on our website.
So with that background information, I need a script that can match the number to it's appropriate URL and make that number a hyperlink.
I'm not sure if this can somehoe be done with Data Merge, but I figured I would ask this in scripting.
Thanks!

If the strings are unique you should be able to find each one programmatically and make a hyperlink out of it. I've done this with a simple Filemaker database of the strings and their corresponding URLs and Applescript.

Of course there is. This is the kind of calc script that only gets run once, so make usre you test it well before doing it on production and make a backup of production before doing it.
It would be something like
Fix(time frame, accounts to be flipped, level zero other dimensions)
actual = actual * -1;
EndFix
Cal dim dimensions
Note, I chose actual, but you could do it for any dimension that has a single or only a couple of members. What ever dimension you choose to do the calculation on, it can't be included in the fix statement

Putting pictures in calendar date WITH Text

I am stumped as to why Apple would do this? When you import all your dates into the calendar feature they show up. When you place a picture on one of those dates-the date and the text disappear. Was there not some easy way to make the picture transparent or smaller so the info can be shown as well. This to me is annoying-I want to see the name and date as well as the picture.Anyone found a backdoor way to do this?
If not:
NOTE TO APPLE IN UPDATES: Make date and text visible on date block AS WELL as picture!
Thanks!

You can get text over the pictures.
The trick is to cntr-click the picture and send it to the back. One would think this would be enough. However, you now need to cntr-click in the LOWER part of the square and select bring to front TWICE.
Using this recipe, I can consistently get text over pictures (and even change the color of the text for more contrast). However, this change does not seem to hold once you quit and restart iPhoto, at least for me. I am looking for confirmation of this fact in another message before I submit a bug report.

Need help creating script to clear data with user inputs

Hi experts.
I need to create a script to clear data in a DEV system from a particular junction.
Basically, I need the user to enter a CATEGORY, ENTITY and TIME which will then be used to delete all data in a particular table which meetes those criteria.
I tried to write it in SSIS, but can't get a user input box.
Also, Stored Procedures are not designed to open input boxes for these entries.
Therefore, is there a way to do this in BPC script logic?
I believe that I might be able to write either a Stored Procedure or DTSX package and then pass data from BPC Run Package?
If this is correct, how would I go about it?
Also, would it be possible to read the DISTINCT entries for Category, Time and Entity and present as a dropdown list? (It doesn't matter too much if not, a manual entry would have to do).
I will admit that I have no experience of script logc, so any docments and/or pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thank Karthik, but I can't use the clear for this job.
Specifically, I need this to delete from the LCK tables whenever data gets stuck, so if anyone can tell me the format to use, I'd be extremely grateful
(And I appreciate that this is not recommended, but it's a DEV system and we need a way to clear these locks quickly when they occur)

Using import script to read data from another location

Hi,
I need to find a way to import, in one location, the data of all other locations (with some additional transformations) using an integration script.
I think I should be able to read from the recordset returned by farsTable, but I need to know how to find the table name that contains the data from my other locations.
Thanks in advance,
Julien

First you will need to read the tpovlocation table to get the location key and segment key for each location to be read. You can then either read the relevent tdataseg(index) table where the index is the segment key from the location table, or alternatively you could try to access the data from the View (which i think is Vdata) in which case you you will not need the segment key.

How can use a script to separate data into separate sheets?

For example sake, I have three columns: Food Eaten (lbs), Date, and Pet (Fido, Penny, Whiskers). I'd like to tease the data apart such that the data for the first two columns for Penny, Fido, and Whiskers all appear on different sheets.
Thanks in advance

Hi FCW,
I created a DataPlugin to read in your Excel data file-- if you happen to have DIAdem 2010 (11.2) or later you'll be able to use it. Otherwise just load the file however you were loading it before so that your 4 data channels are the only ones in the Data Portal, then run the "DataFileWhisperer.VBS" script in DIAdem SCRIPT.

IOS 5.1 using cellular data with no apps open

Just upgraded iphone 4s to iOS 5.1. Now when I am not connected to wifi, my cellular data usage is constant and rapid. No apps are open, no data usage that I am aware of. But when I check the cellular data usage, it goes up by about 1MB every minute. Just the day before on iOS 5.0, no cellular data would be used with all apps closed.

Iphone 3GS. updated to iOS 6.0.1 Friday. Data usage until then about 300MB
Sunday Morning around 4am. Phone incredibly hot even though connected to charger and home Wifi network. Usage exceeds 3GB for month and extra 3.5GB. Total usage in 12 hours 6.5GB.
Sunday afternoon after receiving message from AT&T about excess data, turned off Cellular Data and 3G and limited to only Wifi.
Monday evening 2GB cellular data. Total data usage in 2 days 9GB????? W/T/F ???
Even when 3G and cellular data is turned OFF, 2GB used up?
Now, turned OFF Cellular data and Wifi and using it as a regular phone with texting and calling. Maybe will buy a regular phone and be done with all these useless charges. Someone should be held accountable here.

Loading GL Master Data -- Attributes, Text, Hier ; and Transaction Data

Hi all,
Could any one give me the steps individually to load the following type of data in BI 7.0:
1. Master Data with Attributes
2. Master Data with Text
3. Master Data with Hierarchy
4. Transaction Data
Do I have to create the Transformation and DTP's individually to load all the above kind of Data?
Please give me the information as much as you can.
Thanks,

For master data when you create tranformation it will prompt infoobject to act as infoprovider, and then you create DTP to schedule data to it. It works fine with attribute and Texts, though hierarchy dosn;t support much features of 2004s at my side. Like i am not able to migrate Hierarchy datasource to 2004s, and even when i replicate it, it comes as 3.5 datasource only.
For transaction data follow Gokuls step, or try to find on forums you will get lot of discussion on it.

When my phone updates it says 5/9/54 BE and the time. I have tried to reset the date with no luck and I am not sure what BE means/stands for.

Please help me! I can't reset the phone with the correct date. For some reason at the bottom of my mail it says Updated 5/9/54 BE and the correct time. It also puts that same date with text messages.

Use of MIN with text data

I am not familiar with using MIN with text data as in the sample below and could use some help in deciphering what it is doing. This SELECT statement is taken from a larger CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW statement. The first line of the WHERE clause is making the connection to look at the correct user's information. The section after the first AND is what I am trying to interpret correctly. I have moved into a new position and wasn't around when this view was created. The statement is designed to assign the correct DOMAIN_ID to each user based on values in the elms.elms_dom_lkup table ed. This table consists of 4 columns: DOMAIN_ID, PROC_LVL, LOCATION, AND POSITION. The DOMAIN_ID is the only field that is not nullable. The primary key for the table is a combination of the 4 columns. The section after the first AND matches the PROC_LVL from the ed (lookup table) to the PROCESS_LEVEL in the cd (reference table) and confirms the process level is associated with the users primary position. It then looks for one of three conditions:
1. process levels match and LOCATION and POSITION are NULL
2. process levels match and LOCATION matches user's location in a reference table
3. PROC_LVL is NULL and POSITION matches user's position in a reference table
(SELECT MIN (domain_id)
FROM elms.elms_dom_lkup ed, mici.const_dept cd
WHERE c.constituent_id = cd.constituent_id
AND ( (ed.proc_lvl = cd.process_level AND cd.pos_level = 1
AND ( (ed.location IS NULL AND ed.position IS NULL)
OR (LOWER (ed.location) = LOWER (loc.campus))))
OR (LOWER (ed.position) = LOWER (c.job_desc)
AND ed.proc_lvl IS NULL))), /*Domain ID*/
My question revolves around the priority on those matches. The ed table is not organized in any manor. The records are in the order they were entered. Does the MIN in the SELECT statement cause the DOMAIN_ID

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
If v is a string column (such as a VARCHAR2), then MIN (v) is the first string in collating order (that is, alphabetic order, but with numbers and punctuation symols given particular values in the ordering).
It lookw like the code fragment you posted is a Scalar Sub-Query , that is, a sub-query used where an expression is exprected. For example, in a query like this:
SELECT *
FROM    scott.emp
WHERE   sal     > 1200
;You can replace the literal 1200 with any kind of numeric expression, even
SELECT *
FROM    scott.emp
WHERE   sal     > (     --Begin scalar sub-query
                SELECT AVG (sal)
                FROM    scott.emp
            )     -- End scalar sub-query
;You have to be careful that a sclar sub-query produces exactly one column, and either 0 or 1 rows. You'll get a run-time error if the sub-query ever produces 2 or more rows.
People sometimes use MIN in situations like yours when the sub-query might otherwise return 2 or more rows, and either:
(a) all the non-NULL rows will contain the same domain_id, or
(b) it doesn't matter which domain_id is used, just so long as it is one that actually exists in the result set.

Rows in a relational table are never in any intrensic order.
It looks like the question got cut off. Does the MIN in the SELECT statement cause the DOMAIN_ID to do what?

I see you corrected your first post.
842436 wrote:
... My question is does the MIN in the SELECT statement cause the DOMAIN_ID from the first record that meets any of the 3 conditions to be returned?Yes, it makes the sub-0query return the first domain_id ( in alphabetic order ) that meets all the conditions. If there are 1,000 rows that meet all the conditions, the query will ind all 1,000 of them, keeping track iof which one is first in alphabetic order. Remember that
'127.255.255.0' is less than
'25.0.0.0' in alphabetic order, because '1' is less that '2'.
