Using & in a text string

How can I use & in a text string so that the system doesn't ask for the user to enter a value. eg the string is Joe Blogs & Co. Currently the system asks for the user to enter text.

An other option is to change your 'define'-character within SQL*Plus:
SQL> sho define
define "&" (hex 26)
SQL> select 'AAA & BBB' from dual
2 ;
Enter value for bbb:
SQL> set define #
SQL> sho define
define "#" (hex 23)
SQL> select 'AAA & BBB' from dual
2 ;
'AAA&BBB'
AAA & BBB
1 row selected.

Multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms

multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms
Instead of creating multiple forms, 1 in each different language, for the same service, is there any workaround?

Hoan - is your question what are the considerations when creating multiligual catalogs? If so, I can tell you that at other clients I have seen them use a single catalog for one or two languages. For the two langugages, such as Spanish/English, you can create a single catalog with both of them. Once you get to more than two languages, the catalog would get unweildy and is therefore not suggested.

Can anyone answer this question? What is used to format a string so that it falls into a certain Row/Column in excel? see text for indepth question.

I'm attaching a file that may help. Just remember this is my FIRST attempt at using NI/FeildPoint so things that would be obvious to the normal users more than likely would slide right by me. So I'll try and explain what the text contains as to make my problem more clear. I'm using a FP-1000, FP-AI-100, and a FP-TB-10. i'm creating a application where I'm using the 8 channels from the FP-AI-100 to monitor a control system ,that we manufacture. The control system is in an environmental chamber. I use the FP-TB-10 to monitor the temperature while in the chamber. The control system is ran for 4 hours under varing enviromental conditions while I monitor vital system voltages with the FP-AI-100. Now the application that i'm building starts with the obvious FP CREATE.VI and so forth I have no problem communicating with the FP's, but the information that I'm monitioring needs to be placed into a file with Headers describing the information below it. Now I use a "WHILE LOOP.VI" to monitor the FP-AI-100 & FP-TB-10 for the 4 hour period. but before that I create and open a file where I use a "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" to enter the headers I need. I do this by CONSTANTS, CONTROLS, TABs, AND CARRIAGE RETURN being entered into the "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" in the order I want them to appear. I use ROW 1 to enter (OPERATOR:with a CONSTANT) an a (CONTROL so the operator may enter his name and be recorded into the file) using a TAB to seperate Columns and a CARRIAGE RETURNto drop down to ROW 2 for the next headers. I use header names and TABs to seperate the columns. This part works great. I end up with ROW 1 having the operator information then ROW 2 having the headers for all the channels I'm using to monitor the control system with in their own column. The trouble happens when I write to this file during the "WHILE LOOP". The information recorded for DATE:, TIME:, and Channel 0 of the FP-AI-100 end up right under their corresponding header on ROW 3, but the rest of the data ends up on ROW 4 in column 3 and goes down many rows with some of the data not being stored at all. It varies on how many rows are used starting at ROW 4 but hey always stay in column 3. I use the "FP READ.VI" outputing to a "ARRAY TO SPREADSHEET STRING.VI" outputing to a "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" for each channel within the "WHILE LOOP" then into the "WRITE.VI". I use the "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" to place my data OR atleast I thought you could do that some how I'm not quit doing something write either there is a sampling/timing issue or writing to file issue where things are being confused in the "WHILE LOOP" if someone know a better route to perform what I'm tring here I would be interested. Its not like I'm not giving it the old colledge try here but without proper training and the vagness of the manuals it's difficult to understand what every connection actually does.I'm tring though for everyone who happens to fill pity for me
Thanks for your help

Allmost right. The 8 channels come out as 1D-array, ch0...ch7.

I don't use this Spreadsheet VI, because files coming out there allways
start this time consuming EXCEL wizzard. Because of this, I programmed my
own CSV-conversion vi. Maybe you could just use a common texteditor, like
wordpad and put the csv-examples from my last reply down to a text file
and rename it to *.csv. Texteditors terminate lines with "\r\n" by
default, so this is a very quick way for testing.
> FP_Analog_Logging example to record all eight channels it uses a Array
I didn't find the vi you metione above, but there is another good one:
Look at examples\FieldPoint\DataLogging\FP Logger.vi.
In a little case structure, at "false", there is a function called "Format
into string".
Pop up on the format string and adjust >>'\' Codes Display<<.
Then you change the format string into: %.;%-f%s
A Tab string is connected to the lower input of this function. Replace
this one with a comma.
That should do.

Yes, just as explained above. If you put a indicator at the output to
display the values, you can expand the display to show all 8 channels, but
you can't name induvidual cells. In a array, all cells have identical
named labels. If you want to name the individually, you have to attach the
array to cluster function and put the indicator after this one. Enable
labe display and name the output values individually.

Explained above.

Well, modifying strings are done with string functions.
Above, as I explained how the sample FP Logger.vi can be modified to do
the job for numbers. The pre- and suffixing with ", you only need for
strings, which EXCEL should interpret a string and as nothing else as a
string, even if there's a number inside. You usually need this only for
headers. So its easyest, if you just write your string into a string
constant or control and concatenate it to the previous csv-file contents.
Oh, I just see by looking at the above mentioned example... Inside the
case structure, but in the "true" case, there are error messages
concatenated to the logfile. At this point it is importent, to use " for
integrating the message into the CSV file, because a error message usually
looks like this: >> ERROR 2345 in vi yxz <<
Here you have text and number strings mixed in one line. EXCEL does not
know, if it should interpret the number inside the error line as separate
number, separating the line into three colums i.e. string before number,
number and string after number. So tell EXCEL by putting a " before and
after the line each.
For this, expand the Format To String function by one input, move down all
connections, to be able to insert a string constant with a " to the first
argument connector. Change the contents of the string constant at the
bottom argument from tab to ", (quotation mark AND comma)

The example I mentioned above help here to.
Look at the Write File function. This function receves data from a
function named concatenate strings. Expand this function to have one more
spare input at the bottom. Create a string constant. Switch the constant
display to "\" mode. Enter "col0","col1","col2"\r\n into the constant.
Connect the constant to the spare input.
Doing this, every dataline in the csv file is followed by
"col0","col1","col2"\r\n .
I wish you a nice weekend,

[Forum FAQ] How to find and replace text strings in the shapes in Excel using Windows PowerShell

Windows PowerShell is a powerful command tool and we can use it for management and operations. In this article we introduce the detailed steps to use Windows PowerShell to find and replace test string in the
shapes in Excel Object.
Since the Excel.Application
is available for representing the entire Microsoft Excel application, we can invoke the relevant Properties and Methods to help us to
interact with Excel document.
The figure below is an excel file:
Figure 1.
You can use the PowerShell script below to list the text in the shapes and replace the text string to “text”:
$text = “text1”,”text2”,”text3”,”text3”
$Excel
= New-Object -ComObject Excel.Application
$Excel.visible = $true
$Workbook
= $Excel.workbooks.open("d:\shape.xlsx")
#Open the excel file
$Worksheet
= $Workbook.Worksheets.Item("shapes")
#Open the worksheet named "shapes"
$shape = $Worksheet.Shapes
# Get all the shapes
$i=0
# This number is used to replace the text in sequence as the variable “$text”
Foreach ($sh in $shape){
$sh.TextFrame.Characters().text
# Get the textbox in the shape
$sh.TextFrame.Characters().text =
$text[$i++]
#Change the value of the textbox in the shape one by one
$WorkBook.Save()
#Save workbook in excel
$WorkBook.Close()
#Close workbook in excel
[void]$excel.quit()
#Quit Excel
Before invoking the methods and properties, we can use the cmdlet “Get-Member” to list the available methods.
Besides, we can also find the documents about these methods and properties in MSDN:
Workbook.Worksheets Property (Excel):
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff835542(v=office.15).aspx
Worksheet.Shapes Property:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff821817(v=office.15).aspx
Shape.TextFrame Property:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff839162(v=office.15).aspx
TextFrame.Characters Method (Excel):

Characters.Text Property (Excel):
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff838596(v=office.15).aspx
After running the script above, we can see the changes in the figure below:

Cp4 AS3 - using Javascript to generate a text string

I'm a complete Javascript beginner, so please forgive me if this is a stupid question!
I need to generate a pseudo random text string. I'm using the unpatched version of Cp4, AS3, Internet Explorer 7
I've had a look at Captivate.Dev.com and the w3schools site to try to understand how to pass variables & basic javascript, and this is what I've come up with:
var objCP = document.Captivate;
function GenerateCode(){
var rngen = new Array(8);
var tgits = new Array(8);
var cdrtn="";
var lpdx=0;
var mulier=1;
for (lpdx=0;lpdx<=5;lpdx++){
rngen[lpdx]=(Math.floor(Math.random()*9)+1);
mlier=mulier*(rngen[lpdx]);
tgits[lpdx]=rngen[lpdx]+"";
cdrtn=cdrtn+tgits[lpdx];
rngen[6]=(mlier%17)%10;
rngen[7]=(mlier%13)%10;
for (lpdx=6;lpdx<=7;lpdx++)
tgits[lpdx]=rngen[lpdx]+"";
cdrtn=cdrtn+tgits[lpdx];
objCP.cpEISetValue('MyJavascriptVariable', cdrtn);
GenerateCode();
I've created a user variable called MyJavascriptVariable , put the code above in the On Slide Enter, Execute Javascript window on the first slide, and on the second a simple caption box showing the variable contents.
However, when I press F12 I get an orange playbar at the top of the window, and in the middle the preloader and the captionbox (without the return value) flickering. i.e. classic sign of wrong AS version.
If I change to AS2 the movie progresses ok, but the value the caption reports back for MyJavascriptVariable is blank.
I know my core code works correctly - if I use the w3school's tryit editor with the code after the function declaration up to the closing curly before the objcCP line, with an addeded document.write to show the variable it works fine.
It's clearly something to do with the way I'm declaring/passing the function or the way Cp runs the javascript. But what?
Any help greatfully appreciated!
Thanks

Hi Jon,
You are right... it works great on the W3Schools site. Although in Cp, you ran into quite an issue using the modulus operater (%). Looks like Cp needs the encoded version of this operator which is (%25). Also, if you're using Cp4, then when you go to set the caption, you want to use objCP.cpSetValue(); Cp5 uses cpEISetValue. I also try to use single quotes when working with strings.
Here's the updated code:
var objCP = document.Captivate;
function GenerateCode() {
var rngen = new Array(8);
var tgits = new Array(8);
var cdrtn='';
var lpdx = 0;
var mulier=1;
    for (lpdx=0; lpdx<=5; lpdx++){
        rngen[lpdx]=(Math.floor(Math.random()*9)+1);
        mlier=mulier*(rngen[lpdx]);
        tgits[lpdx]=rngen[lpdx]+'';
        cdrtn=cdrtn+tgits[lpdx];
rngen[6]=(mlier %25 17) %25 10;
rngen[7]=(mlier %25 13) %25 10;
   for (lpdx=6; lpdx<=7; lpdx++){
        tgits[lpdx]=rngen[lpdx]+'';
        cdrtn=cdrtn+tgits[lpdx];
objCP.cpSetValue('MyJavascriptVariable', cdrtn);
GenerateCode();
This looks like some really crazy math.
Let me know if this helps.

How To Color a Text string using Regex (java.util.regex)

Hello,
How can I color a text string using regex class in 1.4?

Yes, did you notice it said something about incredibly vague functionality?
Let me break it down for you
> How can I color a text string
Strings do not have color... You can color a component (a label, a button), but you can't color a string
> using regex class in 1.4?
Using a regular expression? How would a regular exression color anything? Do you have embedded color codes? Are you searhing a string for some secret word?
What are you talking about?

Use REGEXP_INSTR to find a text string with space(s) in it

I am trying to use REGEXP_INSTR to find a text string with space(s) in it.
(This is in a Function.)
Let's say ParmIn_Look_For has a value of 'black dog'. I want to see if
ParmIn_Search_This_String has 'black dog' anywhere in it. But it gives an error
Syntax error on command line.
If ParmIn_Look_For is just 'black' or 'dog' it works fine.
Is there some way to put single quotes/double quotes around ParmIn_Look_For so this will
look for 'black dog' ??
Also: If I want to use the option of ignoring white space, is the last parm
'ix' 'i,x' or what ?
SELECT
REGEXP_INSTR(ParmIn_Search_This_String,
'('||ParmIn_Look_For||')+', 1, 1, 0, 'i')
INTO Position_Found_In_String
FROM DUAL;
Thanks, Wayne

Maybe something like this ?
test@ORA10G>
test@ORA10G> with t as (
2    select 1 as num, 'this sentence has a black dog in it' as str from dual union all
3    select 2, 'this sentence does not' from dual union all

Ring Item text string too long to display all - use ellipses ?

The width of my Ring control is not wide enough to display all characters in the Item text string. LabVIEW simply truncates the text with no indication that additional text is present. Is there a way to display an ellipses in such cases ? For example :
"Ring text string that is too long"
that is now shown as :
"Ring text string that i"
could be shown as :
"Ring text st...too long"

A couple of suggestions:
1.) Use property nodes to determine which strings are too long, then concatenate the strings with ellipses.
2.) Increase the height so the text wraps.

Write text string using actionscript?

Hi,
I'm rather new at actionscript. I know I can do this in
javaScript using "document.write" but I don't seem to be having any
luck with actionscript.
I'd like to include some text strings that display within a
actionscript function.
I have a dynamic text field called "pagecount".
The function is:
function onEnterFrame()
pagecount.text = _parent._parent.rdinfoSlideCount;
I want to include text that says to the user "You are now on
page _____ (results of the function)."
With JavaScript it might look something like this:
function onEnterFrame()
pagecount.text = document.write("You are now on page ") +
_parent._parent.rdinfoSlideCount;
This doesn't work.
What would be the syntax to add text to the actionscript
function?
Thank you,
TPK

If I understand, then this would do it:
pagecount.text = "You are now on page " +
_parent._parent.rdinfoSlideCount;

Trying to use web app text field to redirect a page.

I am trying to create a web app, that will provide 'members' with a page that they can use to redirect to other pages of their choice. What I want to do is allow the member user to select (from a dropdown menu, or even input their own into a text field) a specific url (i.e. http://www.facebook.com/myfacebookpage) on their customer page. Once they select the url they want, and save their info, that url will be used in a redirect page, (i.e. <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url={tag_redirectURL}"> or something to that effect. Has anyone done this or have any ideas how to do it? Ultimately, I want the user to be able to change on the fly where someone goes when they share their user link with a friend (i.e. http://www.mywebsite.com/userpage/ will take someone to a facebook page or to a youtube video, or some other page they redirect to) so they can switch it on their own when they choose to.

Hi Scott,
You could create a web app which as a text (string) field in it for customers to enter the URL they want to redirect the customers to. Then place a JavaScript redirect inside the detailed layout, which would look like this:
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
Give them access to secure zone, place a web app item creation form onto it and you're good to go.

Convert text string file to object array without outputting to file first?

I have a log file that is just a text string file which is appended to with Out-File. If the log file does not exist I pipe headers to it so that I can import the data as CSV. For example:
DATA.LOG
DATE,TIME,RESPONSE_TIME
05-28-2014, 14:47, 132
05-28-2014, 14:50, 94
05-28-2014, 14:53, 72
I'm using Microsoft Chart Controls to graph the data; it takes it in via CSV format. If I'm going to chart all the entries in DATA.LOG I can simply IMPORT-CSV DATA.LOG. But I only want to graph the 20 most recent entries.
Perhaps there is a better way to do this, but to maintain the header and get the 20 most recent entries I'm using select.
$DATA+=Get-Content .\data.log | select -first 1
$DATA+=Get-Content .\data.log | select -last 20
The problem is $DATA is of type system string so I can't use it directly with Chart Controls; I need to get it in CSV format first. I can Out-File $DATA and then use IMPORT-CSV. But I'd prefer to not have to use
the temporary file. Any suggestions on how I can accomplish this objective?

Import-CSV creates an object with the 'header' becoming the named values in the array. The code I posted does the same thing as your 4 lines of code in one line of code:
Much more quickly:
PS C:\temp> (1..1000 | measure-command {import-csv .\data.log | select -last 2}).totalseconds
0.4792951
PS C:\temp> (1..1000 | measure-command {$DATATMP=@();$DATATMP+=Get-Content .\data.log | select -first 1;$DATATMP+=Get-Content .\data.log | select -last 2;ConvertFrom-CSV $DATATMP}).totalseconds
1.6227726
You're more than welcome to use whatever code you want, but if you want to improve your Powershell knowledge you should try to understand the object model around which Powershell is built, it is powerful and efficient.
I hope this post has helped!

How can I display an icon, instead of text string, as a validation prompt?

My validate method inside my custom validator is like this:
public void validate(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object value) {
Pattern datePattern = Pattern.compile("(\\d{2})/(\\d{2})/(\\d{4})");
Matcher dateMatcher = datePattern.matcher((String)value);
if(!dateMatcher.find()){
    ((UIInput)component).setValid(false);
    FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage();
    String msg = "[" + value + "] invalid date";
    message.setDetail(msg);
    context.addMessage(component.getClientId(context), message);
    FacesMessage facesMsg = new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_FATAL, "xx", "msg");
    throw new ValidatorException(facesMsg);
}My JSP has this:
<h:inputText id="test" value="#{projecthandler.test}">
<f:validator validatorId="DateValidator" />
</h:inputText>
<h:message id="testErrorMessage" for="test"/>The <h:message> tag will kick in if the user has invalid data in the <h:inputText> field and clicks submit.
When the page is regenerated, the user will see a text string reflecting what the issue is.
However, instead of this, I would like to display an icon consisting of a red circle with an exclamation point.
The user is supposed to click on the icon if they want more information. By clicking on the icon,
the user will see a message box, with a description of the error.
This is our standard for applications. I'm trying to put together a demo showing how an existing application
would work in JSF, so I won't be able to talk others into using JSF, unless I can get the validation to display an
icon instead of text.

OK, I noticed a bug in my validate method. This is updated to fix the bug, and to include the recomendation about background-image:
public void validate(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object value) {
    System.out.println("DateValidator.test.1");
    Pattern datePattern = Pattern.compile("(\\d{2})/(\\d{2})/(\\d{4})");
    Matcher dateMatcher = datePattern.matcher((String)value);
    System.out.println("DateValidator.test.1");
    if(!dateMatcher.find()){
      ((UIInput)component).setValid(false);
      FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage();
      String msg = "<span style='background-image: url(/error.gif)'/>";
      message.setDetail(msg);
      message.setSeverity(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_FATAL);
      context.addMessage(component.getClientId(context), message);
      throw new ValidatorException(message);
}When I run this, the litteral string of "<span style='background-image: url(/error.gif)'/>" is printed as the message. It does not interpret this as a span tag with an image url.
Can someone tell me what's going on?

How Can I replace newScale Text Strings with Custom Values?

How Can I replace newScale Text Strings with Custom Values?
How can I replace newScale text strings with custom values?
All newScale text is customizable. Follow the procedure below to change the value of any text string that appears in RequestCenter online pages.
Procedure
1. Find out the String ID of the text string you would like to overwrite by turning on the String ID display:
a) Navigate to the RequestCenter.ear/config directory.
b) Open the newscale.properties file and add the following name-value pair at the end of the file:res.format=2
c) Save the file.
d) Repeat steps b and c for the RmiConfig.prop and RequestCenter.prop files.
e) Stop and restart the RequestCenter service.
f) Log in to RequestCenter and browse to the page that has the text you want to overwrite. In front of the text you will now see the String ID.
g) Note down the String ID's you want to change.
2. Navigate to the directory: /RequestCenter.ear/RequestCenter.war/WEB-INF/classes/com/newscale/bfw.
3. Create the following sub-directory: res/resources
4. Create the following empty text files in the directory you just created:
RequestCenter_0.properties
RequestCenter_1.properties
RequestCenter_2.properties
RequestCenter_3.properties
RequestCenter_4.properties
RequestCenter_5.properties
RequestCenter_6.properties
RequestCenter_7.properties
5. Add the custom text strings to the appropriate RequestCenter_<Number>.properties file in the following manner (name-value pair) StringID=YourCustomTextString
Example: The StringID for "Available Work" in ServiceManager is 699.
If you wanted to change "Available Work" to "General Inbox", you would add the following line to the RequestCenter_0.properties file
699=General Inbox
Strings are divided into the following files, based on their numeric ID:
Strings are divided into the following files, based on their numeric ID:
String ID File Name
0 to 999 -> RequestCenter_0.properties
1000 to 1999 -> RequestCenter_1.properties
2000 to 2999 -> RequestCenter_2.properties
3000 to 3999 -> RequestCenter_3.properties
4000 to 4999 -> RequestCenter_4.properties
5000 to 5999 -> RequestCenter_5.properties
6000 to 6999 -> RequestCenter_6.properties
7000 to 7999 -> RequestCenter_7.properties
6. Turn off the String ID display by removing (or commenting out) the line "res.format=2" from the newscale.properties, RequestCenter.prop and RmiConfig.prop files
7. Restart RequestCenter.
Your customized text should be displayed.

I've recently come across this information and it was very helpful in changing some of the inline text.
However, one place that seemed out of reach with this method was the three main buttons on an "Order" page. Specifically the "Add & Review Order" button was confusing some of our users.
Through the use of JavaScript we were able to modify the label of this button. We placed JS in the footer.html file that changes the value of the butt

How to display LONG TEXT STRING in Module Pool Screen ?

Hi Experts,
I want to display long text string, on screen designed through module pool(SE51). I tried to display through input/output field , but it displays it in SINGLE LINE and i have to scroll all through to view all string.
I want to display it in rectangular format . It doesnt allow me to set HEIGHT of component.
Please provide solution.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Deepak

This is the program where u can get the WA_THEAD from other program like report and trying to display and modifying that text. U can do instead of WA_THEAD u can generate here itself and use also
