Utility VI for searching for the occurance of a string in all files in a directory

Is anyone aware of a utility VI that can search for a string(s) in all
file types such as doc, xls, ppt etc in a specified directory?

Greetings,
I'm having an issue (using 8.5) with a directory read in. I've attached my elementary VI. Basically I want to read in mutliple files (they will be the same array size), and analyze each file. I am confident I will be able to analyze the data as necessary, I'm just having a problem parsing the data. Verbally I know exactly what I need to do just doesn't seem to be working in labview. Reading in the directory isn't the hard part, but breaking up the 2D data into the number of files I have apparently is for me.
1. Read in (user defined) directory
2. List the file names | # of files in the directory
3. Perform MAX value and % analysis of data on AMP array
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Even if it's just verbally pointing me in the right direction. I've attached the VI and 3 example data files I read in.
Thanks in advance...I really feel like I should know this one, but I usually deal in individual files, this is my first directory read.
Best Regards,
Chazzzmd

Search string in all files into a directory

hello, i try to search a string into all directory files i think is something like this * ".txt"
but is not working can you help me please.

In some ways it would be nice if you could specify a wildcard (or a regex) so that a FileReader would treat ALL the matching files a one file but the current FileReader does not no this. You need to list all the files using File.listFiles() using a file filter if you want to restrict which files are chosen. You can then process the list opening each file in turn.
The Javadoc for File is your friend.

Reporting annoying issues for the entire Microsoft website (MSDN, forums, all)

Is there any place where I can report bugs with how the Microsoft web sites behave? I can only find forums and "Microsoft Answers" categories about single products that Microsoft makes, but nothing about the infrastructure itself.
For about two weeks now, I am required to log into my account every few hours whenever I access any Microsoft website. This includes MSDN help content, forums, or other resources. I need to login after opening the website through F1 help in Visual Studio
as well as accessing a microsoft.com link from anywhere else like a web search or a direct link from web or an application.
Auto-complete does not work either. My browser (Firefox) does save the password, but it never fills it into the form. Other people have already noticed that
Microsoft applies some dirty tricks here. And even if the login is remembers for a moment, it's slow as hell. It takes a second or two to load the login.live.com page (which is not what I wanted to see), then it sits there for some more seconds before going
anywhere. Other login services like Google or StackOverflow manage to log me in all within one second and most of the time I don't even see it.
And then there's still that insecure SSL-to-non-SSL-submit warning that only occurs in other browsers then IE. Has anybody cared about that in the last couple years?! I'm not getting it now, probably because I'm not logged in anymore. It all slowly falls
apart, piece by piece. Next step is probably losing my data or not loading it at all.
THIS – IS – ANNOYING! And it really makes me feel like I don't want to use Microsoft products anymore (because even good desktop applications are connected to that silly website). I have opened a
Microsoft Connect ticket for a part of this issue (it's grown bigger since then), but this ticket is totally ignored. If microsoft.com went down, they'd certainly care within minutes or hours. This bug is not even regarded in
weeks!
So do I have to write a postal letter to the president of the whole company or do they have support staff for that?! Do they have anybody who is capable of maintaining their website? It's really frustrating how Microsoft has a web presence that is worse
than what our first-year trainees come up with. It's full of bugs and this is currently only the most relevant one. Do they even care about how the world sees them? Or is Microsoft currently preparing (and even failing) to move out of business?

The brandings are fun. Here's this same thread in a bunch of flavors:

Try turning off the Camera Roll option in Settings>iCloud>Backup & Storage>Manage Storage>Your device. Then turn it back on again.

Memory could not be allocated for the activation process. Please close all applications and try agai

I have just had a Windows XP failure and took the opportunity to replace with Windows 7. After I reinstalled PhotoShop CS(1) the message "Memory could not be allocated for the activation process. Please close all applications and try again" is shown and forces PhotoShop to close. I have 4Gb of Ram installed and a total of about 10Gb of Page File space on three partitions of a 500Gb HDD. The system is not heavily loaded! However, I cannot access Photoshop to check scratch disk allocation. How to fix???

Yes, there are many forums, and it can be confusing. Your question has the best chance of being answered if it is in the proper place. I think it is there now.

Memory could not be allocated for the activation process. Please close all applications and tr again

Hello,
Just purchased a new laptop:
Intel Core 2 quad
4gb memory
1000 HDD
Photoshop CS 8.0 disc dead/scratched/unreadable. So I copied my Adobe folder from my Program Files Folder on my PC and pasted on laptop. When I try and run PS I get the error message "Memory could not be allocated for the activation process. Please close all applications and try again". Which I do then Photoshop closes.
Can anyone help (in layman terms please)?

Not really. You are essentially FUBARd. Without a proper install, there is usually no way on to get the licensing stuff working. You might be able to get there by installing any other CS product, so PS could latch on to the licensing system that would be already in place, but otherwise it's a lost cause. Simply copying over the executables is normally not enough. I will admit though, that I skipped CS, so there may be some tool somewhere that I don't know about can do this post facto...

How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?

How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?
The following code does not work. isFile() does NOT recognize files as files but only as directories. Why?
Furthermore the size is not retrieved correctly.
How do I have to code it otherwise? Is there a way of not converting f-to-string-to-File again but iterate over all file objects instead?
Thank you
Peter

Dear Customer Service:
It is very frustrating for me. My Visa account keeps getting declined at Apple. I used this very same Visa card on Amazon with no problem. I checked my status for
the card and it is still all good. My friends and I buy a lots of Apple applications on iTune.
We have the correct CVV2, Expiration Date and Billing address, but you keeps declining us. Please fix this problem for me. The issuing bank for this card is Techcombank, one of the largest banks in Vietnam. According to the bank, the transaction is processed in the US. This is a legitimate Visa card.
Please let me know as soon as possible. Apple does a disservice to its brand name by declining legitimate Visa account holders from using the cards in Vietnam.

Just as a warning, your credit card number has been sent in the clear to probably thousands of people, including anyone who subscribes to e-mail alerts to this forum. That's very, very bad. The credit card should be considered compromised at this point, and you should cancel it immediately, if you haven't done so already.

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here - I've asked the hosts to remove your credit card number from your post as these are public forums (you should consider getting a new card from your provider as you've posted it here).
Your card is registered to exactly the same address (spacing and format) as is on your iTunes account ?You can contact iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Disk utility can't repair the Macintosh HD, asking toback up all files as possible? and how to reformat the disk?

disk utility can't repair the Macintosh HD, asking toback up all files as possible? and how to reformat the disk?

Some problems can indeed be fixed this way. But working from Recovery_HD or Disk Warrior DVDs and working in the restricted environment those provide can be difficult. You can literally spend days working on this problem (while your regular work is unavailable) only to discover the old drive is unsalvageable.
There is no way to know up front whether you are facing a major Hardware failure or a minor software glitch, or something in between. Often you are forced to work from the drive you no longer trust. I continue to recommend you do this work from a different, fully functioning Mac OS X booted from a different drive.
If you have had the foresight to (as The hatter often recommends) clone your virgin install onto another drive for use in such situations, you will be able to recover from such problems in record time. If not, my previous recommendations stands:
Buy a new Drive. Or two. Install Mac OS X from scratch on a new drive, and get your Mac running again. Later, you can use the full power of Mac OS X to attempt to rescue your data, if needed. Then Zero the old drive, to see if it can hold data again reliably.
If the old drive eventually provides some needed data, and is salvageable, Merry Christmas.

Disk Utility "waiting for the drive"

I'll be calling Applecare on this, but would like to know if anyone else has experienced this problem:
I have a 2 month old MBP with the following model Super Drive:
HL-DT-ST DVDRW GSA-S10N (according to System Profiler, it can write to all formats including -R, +R, DL). From another thread, I assume this is an LG?
I decided to test the drive - made a short 40 second movie and created a disk image. Upon opening Disk Utility and inserting a DVD (Verbatim +R), I got the following: "waiting for the drive" for 5 minutes. Ejected the disk and tried again - same result.
On the third try, it actually recognized the DVD, but only gave me the option to burn at 4x or 8x. I usually burn at the slowest speed available (2x), so I cancelled, ejected the disk and tried again. Fourth and fifth tries: no action, just "waiting for the drive".
I then tried to use Toast with the Super Drive; before inserting the disk, I set Toast to burn at 2x, but once I inserted the disk, Toast recognized it, but changed the available burn options to 4x or 8x.
Next I connected my external burner and got the options to burn at 2.4x, 4x, or 8x both in Disk Utility and Toast.
I then used the same disk on my iMac; tried both the Super Drive and my external burner (using both Disk Utility and Toast with both) and got the following burn options:
iMac Super Drive/Disk Utility: 2.4x, 4x, 8x
iMac/external burner/Toast: 2x, 4x, 6x, 8x
There seem to be a couple of issues:
The "waiting for the drive" problem (what could possibly cause this?)
The "non-availability" of a slow burn speed of the Super Drive
And a third problem: this DVD drive is the slowest I've ever experienced; it took 50 seconds for the icon to appear on the desktop after inserting the DVD vs. 7 seconds on the iMac (this is the DVD I burned using Toast/exterbal burner,testing it on a TV and the iMac). It played fine on all three.
Has anyone encountered a similar "waiting for the drive" issue and/or the fact that this drive takes a very long time to recognize/read a DVD?
Appreciate any input!

I spoke with a product specialist at Apple and it was agreed that we'd wait to see if the problem persisted; at that time, we'd talk about getting the drive replaced.

I used Firefox for months. For the past several weeks it crashes all the time.

I can enter through Safe Mode. I have tried troubleshooting suggestions but have not found anything that works. Can't update plug-ins. Get an error 651 message. Can't update other programs (e.g, Iobit Malware Fighter; Advanced System Care) and can't use other programs (e.g., Skype) because Firefox crashes. I use Google Chrome for Internet searches, email, etc., with no problem, so I am connected. A few days ago, at the-edmeister's suggestion, I found my submitted crash reports and copied the 5 most recent but could not get back to the replay window to paste. I did save them in a folder. Today when I looked for the list of submitted crash reports, that folder was empty. Strange. I still have the 5 I had saved in a separate folder.
As additional information, I had been using I/E for years but it crashed a number of months ago. I have Win 7 and had upgraded to I/E 11. I had read they are incompatible and tried to downgrade to no avail. I was very pleased with Firefox, though, and decided I preferred it to I/E and had enjoyed it for about the last 3 months until it crashed. Google Chrome runs fine, fortunately, but I would like to get Firefox working again. What can I try next? Thank you.
I tried to allow installing the troubleshooting info but received message "Firefox prevented this site from asking you to install software on your computer."

We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
#Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
#Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and paste them into your response here.

Thank you for your help!

Replacing multiple strings for many occurance of single string in OBIEE a

Hi,
I have a requirement like i need to replace a Particular string('_') that occur three times in a string.I need to replace different strings for each occurance of ('_').
My requirement is like this,
My string is 'A_B_C_D' and I need to replace first'_' as 'E=' second '_' as 'F=' third '_' as 'G='.
and the final string should be I=A E=B F=C G=D...
Can any one help me in the logic or else help me how to use the existing functions in answers.

Hi,
We have Replace function in Answers which would replace all occurunces of a particular character with another. To achieve your requirement, you will need to split your string and apply replace function on each part and finally concatenate again.
For e.g. your string is 'A_B_C_D'
You need to split into, below
A_
B_
C_
D
Apply Replace function to first three parts and then finally concatenate.
Replace('A_','_','E=') || Replace('B_','_','F=') || Replace('C_','_','G=') || 'D'
To split the string into parts you may have to use substring and locate functions.
Refer the below thread too.
