Using Output files in businesses

Hi,
I've used captivate for my own small business but now am employed elsewhere and want to know if anyone has any idea about licensing issues with using the output files from captivate in a business that doesn't/hasn't purchased the actual program?
I have a legal copy on my personal PC and create the files there then transfer the output file to my work. They have expressed ome concern as they don't own the program. Everything in the product license agreement seems to talk about the actual program, not what you create with it.
Can anyone direct me where I might find this kind of info? Is it just classed as a shockwave file (which my employer does have license for)
Thanks.

Hi there
I've poked around the Adobe site a bit as well as Googled and Googled. Either I'm using the wrong terms or the information simply isn't there. The bottom line is that we all understand that whatever you create using Captivate is owned by you. There is no restriction placed on use of the content you create.
It's the same issue with any software used to create content.
Does Microsoft Paint impose a restriction on how you use images created using it?
Does Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint or other do the same?
Sure, if you want the end user to be able to modify your creation they will need their own license for Captivate to view and make edits. But all they need to simply view the content is the Flash Player.
Cheers... Rick

How to generate a PDF output using batch file in 10G

Hello,
I am using .bat file to generate a report PDF output. I have done this many times in 6i but for 10G I am unable to do the same.
Can someone please look at the syntax below and let me know where I am going wrong.
I understand that reports are different for 6i and 10G specially .rep file but I am sure we should be able to generate a PDF file using 10G. Please let me know.
Thanks
IQ
Contents of .bat file follow
ECHO Opening parameter form. Please do not close this window.
C:\
FOR /F "tokens=1 " %%I IN ('time /t') DO (SET _TIME=%%I)
FOR /F "tokens=2 " %%I IN ('date /t') DO (SET _DATE=%%I)
SET EXP_DATE=%_DATE:~6,4%%_DATE:~0,2%%_DATE:~3,2%_%_TIME:~0,2%%_TIME:~3,2%
SET FILENAME=SEND_EMAIL_%EXP_DATE%_%USERNAME%.PDF

RWCONVERTER REPORT=C:\Users\Documents\send_email.rep USERID=scott/tiger@ORCL1 ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE DESFORMAT=PDF DESTYPE=FILE
DESNAME=C:\Users\\%FILENAME% PRINTJOB =NO

Rwconverter is not used to run reports:
rwconverter (Reports Converter) enables you to convert one or more report definitions or PL/SQL libraries from one storage format to another.
I think you mean rwrun:
rwrun (Reports Runtime) runs a report by starting its own in-process server (not to be confused with the default in-process Reports Server), which runs in the same JVM as the rwrun process.
This bat file has to run on the server. There is no Reports installation on the client anymore.
If you want to run a report from a client, you can make a bat file that calls the report url

Creating an output file using 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' function

Hi SapAll.
when i try to create an out put text file using the FM 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' by wiring the follwoing below source code
CONCATENATE 'ASORT' c_tab 'ASORTYP' c_tab
                'VKORG' c_tab 'DATAB' c_tab

iam not able to create the text file with more than 16 fields.i have tried to create an out put file with 24 fields but i can only see 16 fields in it.so could any body help me in finding out how i can create an Output file with more than 16 fields in the file.
your help will be appreciated.
regards.
Varma

check your output definition....are you doing something like below? SAP will transfer 1024 bytes per line with GUI_DOWNLOAD.    After you download, how do you view the data? Be sure you're looking at the data with something that will show all 1024 bytes, and not jsut 256 or 512.
types: begin of outline,
           txt(1024),
         end of outline.
data: outtab type table of outline,
         ls_out type outline.

How to create multiple output files using TrAX?

Saxon has specific extensions. In this case it is <xsl:document>. That looks like a standard XSLT element, but it actually isn't. The history behind it is this: There was a proposal to create a new version of XSLT, called XSLT 1.1. One of the new features of this version was to be this xsl:document element. The author of the Saxon product, Michael Kay, is one of the people on the W3C committee directing the evolution of XSLT, so he upgraded his product to implement XSLT 1.1. But then the committee decided to drop XSLT 1.1 as a recommendation. So that left Saxon in the strange position of implementing a non-existent extension to XSLT.
The other outcome of this process was that XSLT (1.0) does not have a way of producing more than one output file from an input file. And so the short answer to your question is "Trax can't do that." However, XSLT 2.0 will be able to do that, although it is not yet a formal W3C recommendation, and when it does become one it will take a while before there are good implementations of it. (I predict that Saxon will be the first good implementation.)
One of the problems with XML and XSLT is that what you knew a year ago is probably obsolete now, because of all the evolution going on. So being new in the field is not a disadvantage, unless you get stung by reading obsolete tutorials or magazine articles.

Printing messages in Log File and Output File using Dbms_output.put_line

Hi,
I have a requirement of printing messages in log file and output file using dbms_output.put_line instead of fnd_file.put_line API.
Please let me know how can I achieve this.
I tried using a function to print messages and calling that function in my main package where ever there is fnd_file.put_line. But this approach is not required by the business.
So let me know how I can achieve this functionality.

Sandy

What is the requirement that doesn't allow you using fnd_file.put_line?

I am not able to modify the text in pdf output file using pdf editor

Hi,
We have upgrade the xml 5.6.1 in server level. After upgrading this, we are not able to modify the pdf output file. Previously we used to modify text and delete text in pdf file which is generated by oracle Application. As of now we cann't upgrade higher version. Can you suggest what to do?.

Check the xdo configuration file option in the user guides. There should be options that allow / disallow modifying text specifically. If you are in EBS, you should be able to change the configuration file options from the XML Publisher Administrator UI.

Using Timestamp [TS] in the output file name

Hello Everyone,
i am trying to get the timestamp into the output file generated by the store file atom. Since my Outbound channel is void i thought i could use:
[TS]
or
[yyyy][mm][dd][hour][min][sec]
My File Specification is: C:\Temp\Out\blabla[TS].xml and unfortunatelythe outputfile are named: blabla[TS].xml
What am I doing wrong? Can i not use those placeholders in an atom?
Help is greatly appreciated
Best regards
Simon

Hi Simon,
Now I see, you're trying to maintain the timestamp in the SLD FILO section and not in a store file atom of an integration scenario.
In this case, please check the following help document:
filePattern
To define the outbound file pattern, define the directory and the file specification. Enter the full path. The integration framework supports Microsoft Windows UNC (Universal Naming Convention) names. The directory you enter must exist in the file system. The user for directory access must have the necessary rights in the file system.
You can use the following special characters and variables:
Character/
Variable
Description
To introduce numbering in the file directory use ?.
If you enter for example data????.xml, the integration framework creates an outbound file called data0000.xml, if the directory is empty. If a file, following this naming convention, already exists in the outbound directory, the next generated file name is data<last number>+1.xml. If data0000.xml already exists in the directory, the next file in the directory is data0001.xml.
[vbiu]
This is a placeholder for a value you can define in scenario package processing. If you use the value, add the b1im_filename attribute directly in the outbound payload.
<xsl:template name="transform">
<xsl:attribute name="b1im_filename">myName</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>
[TS]
To add a timestamp to the file name, use the variable. This gives you another possibility to define unique file names.
[yyyy]
Adds the current year in four digits to the file name
[yy]
Adds the current year in two digits to the file name
[mm]
Adds the current month to the file name
[dd]
Adds the current day to the file name
[hour]
Adds the current hour to the file name
[min]
Adds the current minute to the file name
[sec]
Adds the current second to the file name
You can also combine the variables. For example file[TS]??.[hour][min].txt
Here is a screenshot of my SLD FILO definition and from the result:
Best regards
Bastian
P.S.: just in case you need to define a filename in the integration step for the store file atom, here is a screenshot:

Import/export journals using an output file

I am looking into loading journals using an output file in SAP BPC intead of entering every journal using the template.
Hello everybody,
I have found that 3 DTS packages exist for this issue:
Export the Journal Tables
Clear the Journal Tables.
Restore the Journal Tables.
I have added these packages (using the three .dtsx files that are in the server, in the "Examples" folder) and, after that, run the packages in the proper order. I have some doubts that I would appreciate if you could solve them:
1.- When I run "Export the Journal Tables" package, I can NOT make a selection of journals (for example, using Time dimension).There is no possibility. Is it possible modify this DTS package to export only some selected journals? In case it is, how?
2.- In order to restore journals table, firstly you need to clear all the table using "Clear the Journal Tables" package (I tried to do it without clearing all the journals, and I got an error message that said that I have to clear the journal table before importing ). Would it be possible to restore/import only some journals WITHOUT clearing ALL the previous journals??
3.- I have exported the Journal Table to an output file, clear all the journals in the Journal Table (using the proper package) and run the "Restore the Journal Tables" package using the output file I have gotten before. I have gotten this error: "Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A005B". Do you know what's the problem?
4.- Dou you know another way of loading journals using an output file in SAP BPC intead of entering every journal using the template?
Thank you very much.

There may be options to your process, but as I have mentioned in other strings, the Journals in the BPC for Microsoft version are sequenced. That means that there is a system generated sequence ID for each journal. Any individual selection of journals would possibly cause an issue for the sequence. I have not seen any past work in SSIS to detach the records for export or import. It may be possible, but I would assume it will take some core SQL coding.
Regarding your error, you may need to verify that you have the security set correctly to use Journals and use the Data Manager capabilities. Typically, when security tasks are not correct, you will get an error similar to your HRRESULTX.... error.
An option for loading the details is to build a worksheet in EVDRE, aggregate the data and send it to the cube at a level that is easy to save the file and submit consolidated results. Just make sure you send all "like" records at an aggregated to a base member, and send to a datasrc to identify the extra details. Then store the excel file with the input values.
Hope this helps.

Using a data output file as an input file for test development

I have an output file from a system that I would like to use to simulate the device being attached to the computer. Using the read module I can input the entire file into the charting module, but it reads the entire file. Is there a way setup the input to read one line approx. once per second and chart it (i.e.. A 3600 line file would take approx. 1 hour to read and chart)?
Thanks in advance.

Set up the Read module to only read once per second or minute....
If you're reading a DDF file, it will always read back a full block of data, so you want to have stored the data at one sample/block. One way to do that is to read it back and write is out as ASCII, so that DASYLab loses the block size context.

Use job parameter as output file name "alias" ?

I have a Hyperion 9.3 job with a # of cycles. Is there a way to tell Hyperion to use the job parameter/filter as part of the file name? For example, if there is a filter called "division" and for one of the cycles that is set to "sales", is there a syntax like "{division}" I can use in the output file name so that it picks up the filter?

Unfortunately, I have never seen any kind of syntax that would allow this in Hyperion. The only way I know to do it would be using the java sdk, but that is not something that can be done on the fly...

Using `n how can i add two empty line (two carriage return), between these two lines in the output file?

hi friends
using `n how can i add two empty line (two carriage return), between these two lines in the output file?
PS C:\> $env:COMPUTERNAME | add-content c:\file.txt
PS C:\> $Env:USERDOMAIN | add-content c:\file.txt
i tested "$env:computername`n`n`n$env:userdomain" | add-content c:\file.txt but it results in
myPCMyDomain
but i wanted the contents of the output file be like this:
MyPC
#empty line here
#empty line here
MyDomain
i tested many other forms but didn't work.
thanks

I tried it, as well. The line breaks were respected in the PowerShell console, Programmer's Notepad, and Word; they weren't in Notepad.
You are using a Unicode file. Locale is what?
If you just want notepad compatible line breaks then do this:
del file.txt ; "$env:computername`r`n`r`n`r`n$env:userdomain" | add-content file.txt ;notepad file.txt
Look in hex to see that `n is ^L or 0xA and is only one character. CrLf is 0xD 0xA - two characters.
My programmers editors and VS all understand a single ^L as a line break so does PowerShell. Only DOS/Notepad and other utilitis don't understand this..

When you click the download link on [http://getfirefox.com GetFirefox.com], you should be asked if you wish to Run or Save the file. If the described situation happens when trying to Run the download, try instead to Save it and put the file on your Desktop or a similar place where you are certain that you can find it again.
When the download is complete, try double-clicking the downloaded file in the normal Windows Explorer (browse your way to the file from My Computer). This should start the installation.
If you notice in the Explorer window that the file seems to be lacking the Firefox orange/blue icon, rightclick the file and select Properties. The picture should look somewhat like the attached picture (except that mine's in danish, but that is irrelevant) if saved correctly - if it does NOT look like this, please describe the contents or attach a screenshot of the box. Especially what it says under "File type" - it should be "Program"; if it's not, we'll have to look into what the problem could be here.
Slightly off-topic, your Internet Explorer seems to be quite a bit out of date (IE 6, where current version is IE 8), so I would strongly recommend that you try to run Windows Update to get your system updated. If this is a company system (like a Terminal Server thin client machine), this may not be possible, and your system administrator will most likely have to help you.

Using an Applescript to upload output files to Cyberduck?

Does anyone here use, or know of an Applescript that can automatically upload outputted files to an FTP site using Cyberduck?
I've been hearing about Applescript implementation in Compressor but can't seem to find something to automate my uploading with Cyberduck. I have found one that works with Fetch, but it's taken me long enough to get the technophobic staff here to use Cyberduck, I don't want to have to orchestrate a switchover to Fetch if I can possibly avoid it.
Thanks,
Chris

Hey Jon,
Thanks for your response. I didn't know about cURL but I suppose it would make things simpler than trying to script a process within Cyberduck.
Unfortunately I only really found out about Applescript today and my knowledge of it is limited to one beginners tutorial online which showed me how to change the shape, position and layout of finder windows (exciting!). As such, the script you linked me to means very little to me. Will I be able to attach it to a compressor job in order to automatically upload the file to the FTP site?
If so would you be so kind as to tell me what I need to write into the script so that the file name it is looking for changes depending on the name of the file being outputted by Compressor?
Sorry to be such a noob but everyone has to start somewhere right?
Thanks,
Chris
