Hi,
One of my programs downloads a file to UNIX server,
here the data which i am downloading, one of the fields is of type P (it is of domain type DEC).
The field displays very strangecharactershen i view it in UNIX server.
I am using OPEN DATASET in binary mode statement.
my system is unicode enabled ECC6.0 version
Please help

That is normal, type "P" packed fields with two decimal digits packed into each byte Use another type of field, if you want the field to be readable..
Look at [Predefined ABAP Types|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/fc/eb2fd9358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm]

Is there a work around available?

Hi Tapan,
Try using "Hide or Rename Columns(projection)".
This allows you to rearrange the order of columns in file and also to rename the descriptions as needed.

Field type TaxonomyFieldTypeMulti is not installed properly when opening Site columns page or saving site as template

I have a site collection which I am moving from a SharePoint 2013 enterprise server to a SharePoint 2013 foundation server. This all seems fine apart from when I try and access the Site columns page (from Site settings) or when I save a Site as a template
- both times I get the error: Field type TaxonomyFieldTypeMulti is not installed properly
If I look in the SharePoint logs I get the following:
Unable to locate the xml-definition for FieldName with FieldId '249a1c1a-5a3e-4173-abad-779b01892510
Any ideas?
Many Thanks,
Jenny

I have re-done the migration from Enterprise to Foundation and now get the following error:
Field type RatingCount is not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete this field.
However I cannot go to the Site columns page as I get this error so don't see where I can delete this from? Previously I had to delete this field manually from each of the Blog sites but this time there don't
appear to be these fields to delete - I presume because I disabled all the features relating to this premigration?
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance,
Jenny

In XML Output the values of Number column tags are not displayed properly

Hi,
Our Client have been using AR Invoice Print Program for a long time and it is heavily customized. Also they are using an old version of the RDF. So we have taken the latest version of the RDF (RAXINV.rdf) for Oracle Apps 11.5.10.2 by raising a SR and implement Client's old RAXINV.rdf into it.
All was ok, but when we are running the program, the XML Output did not generate properly. For the Q_INVOICE query (G_ORDER_BY, G_INVOICE and G_INV_TERM group), the value of some of the scaler number columns are not appeared properly. The tags are coming correctly, but the value is appearing as '*', instead of the correct value. We have checked in the RDF Level (By putting srw.message and check in the log file) that those columns are having proper value. So there is no issue with the RDF.
But because of the above mentioned problem, the some of the PDF output field values also is not generated correctly.
I think that because of the lexical parameters which was implementing the Q_INVOICE query (&COMMON_QUERY) this issue is coming. Because the issue is only in the Q_INVOICE query group (G_ORDER_BY, G_INVOICE and in G_INV_TERM group) not in any other query group.
There is no problem with the scaler character columns. The issue is only with the number columns.
Also we have checked that if we hardcode the value of the number columns in the above mentioned lexical parameter, this problem doesn't appear.
If we put TO_CHAR function to those number columns in the lexical parameter (COMMON_QUERY), then this issue get solved. But we can't do it because of performance issue and also Client won't approve it.
Please help.
With Thanks and Regards

I don't know how to read the code you pasted or I would have checked this myself.
Do your fields in the internal table reference dictionary objects or elementary types? If not using dictionary types, the column names will be blank by default. If you can't change your fields to be dictionary types, you can try this to change the column names:
I made a method inside my local class to add the names:
        call method set_colname
          EXPORTING iv_tab = alv_tab
                    iv_colid = 'xxxx' "fieldname from the table
                    iv_stxt = text-t54
                    iv_mtxt = text-t55
                    iv_ltxt = text-t55.
METHOD set_colname .
data:
          alv_cols type REF TO cl_salv_columns_table,
          alv_col type REF TO cl_salv_column.
TRY .
*... Change fieldnames
        call METHOD iv_tab->get_columns RECEIVING value = alv_cols.
        call method alv_cols->get_column EXPORTING columnname = iv_colid RECEIVING value = alv_col.
        IF iv_stxt <> ''.
          CALL METHOD alv_col->set_short_text EXPORTING value = iv_stxt.
        ENDIF.
        IF iv_mtxt <> ''.
          CALL METHOD alv_col->set_medium_text EXPORTING value = iv_mtxt.
        ENDIF.
        IF iv_ltxt <> ''.
          CALL METHOD alv_col->set_long_text EXPORTING value = iv_ltxt.
        ENDIF.

Mail merge fields not displaying properly - Dollar signs and percentages

Hi folks,
I don't know much about mail merging, so I have a question. I have most things working on my merge, but need help with a couple of minor items (I hope). I have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet that we use for merging to a Word 2010 document.
It has various fields such as name, address, city, etc. It also has a field for a dollar amount formatted to two decimal places and showing the $ sign in Excel (ex. $67,000.00), but when it gets merged into the Word document, it displays as 67000.
It doesn't pull the $ nor the decimal point and cents.
I also have the same thing with a percentage (Ex. 6.00%), displays in the Word document as .006.
I think I have everything else working, but can't figure out how to format these items in the Word document to display properly. Any advice?
Mike

If you insert the fields
{ MERGEFIELD Total_NB_Premium_away_from_Plan }
and
{ MERGEFIELD Total_Premium_of_Team_Sales_Target }
directly in your mail merge main document, outside an IF field, not nested in an { = } field, with no formatting switches, what results do you see?
Word will only apply a numeric format to things that it decides are numeric (broadly speaking, that includes numeric and currency amounts that it can recognise). It will leave anything else unformatted. So if you have something that looks a bit like a number
like "$-164,209.00", the chances are that Word will leave it exactly as it is.
When Word does not recognise something as being a number or a valid numeric expression, it will generally display one error or another when you try to put it in an { = } field. So, e.g.
{ =$-164,209.00 } would give you the syntax error that you are seeing. (Assuming "$" is set up as the currency symbol in your COntrol Panel's regional options. If the regional currency symbol was £, you would see a different syntax error.)
The problem in this case probably originates in something that has happened in Excel. Normally, things that are numeric/currency in Excel come through as things that Word treats as numeric. But if for example, someone has entered a number formatted as text
in a column that has texts rather than numbers above it, Word may receive something that it does not think is numeric. You may have to fix your sheet before Word will "see" the numbers correctly.
When you have got to the point where WOrd sees the numbers correctly, you should be able to use
{ MERGEFIELD
Total_NB_Premium_away_from_Plan} \#$,0.00 }
(and the negative numbering formats if you want) without nesting the { MERGEFIELD } inside an { = }

Spry Vertical Menu does not display properly when uploaded to server.

I am using Dreamweaver CS5 Version 11.0 Build 4909 on Windows XP. The website I am working on is displaying the ordered list incorrectly. The drop down submenus are not lined up underneath each other.
So I did a basic one and uploaded it to the server and had the same outcome. Locally it looks fine but uploaded to the hosting server not fine. Below is the code from the document called deleteme.html. I am new to all this so I apologize if this seems basic. Thanks for your help in advanced.

Hello all,
Thanks to everyone who replied to my post. I have it working now but I have other issues that I will post separately.
Here was my thought process and you can tell me if I am right or wrong. I was working with multiple pages that I was using Spry. I had only one folder set that all the Spry Assets were being saved into. My thinking was that they were getting over written. So I deleted the folder and re-built the page. When I deleted Spry Assets folder it showed me I had 6 pages linked to the Spry Assets folder. I also deleted my Spry Assets folder on my hosting server....thought I would really start from scratch. When I went to upload the files I created a SpryAssets folder and what I realized I had originally put a space between the y and a of the folder name. So I am not sure if the elements in the Spry Assets folder were getting over written or it was because I had a space in the folder name. Thanks again, Mike

File not displaying properly when launched

Hello, I'm using Cp6, Windows 7, Flash 11.9 and have a question. I've created a cptx file for an overall tutorial. I've inserted a video (Mp4) that I careated with Cp6 and published as an Mp4 file. I inserted it via Video>Insert Video and chose Event Videof
When I publsh the overall tutorial cptx file which is SCORM 1.2 enabled I get the expeced set of files in the zip folder. I tested playing this tutorial in SCORM Cloud, IE, Chrome, and FireFox with success. The overall tutorial plays as expected and the video plays as expected.
When I handed off the zipped published files to somone to load in their LMS, everything works fine except when the Mp4 file is played, it launches fine, displays the first screen fine, and then continues to play however all of the screens after the first screen appear almost transparent. And I believe the file the LMS people are loading is the Index_SCORM HTML file. They said that's the one they upload to their LMS.
I have looked throughout Cp6 for a "setting" that would cause this "dimming" effect starting on screen 2 and do not see anything.
Here's a sample of the code the LMS people sent. They think it cold be because of this opacity setting or value.
How is this opacity setting triggered in Captivate 6? If it is this, any suggestions on how to resolve it? Do you think this is what's causing the MP4 video to start dimming out on slide 2? Again, this doesn't happen on any of the other files in the published folder such as the SWF file and it does not happen when I test the entire published zip folder on SCORM Cloud.
Thanks a ton!

If you SCORM package as published from Captivate works perfectly well in SCORM Cloud then the issue is most likely with your client's LMS or the way the people administering it have loaded the course.
In any SCORM complian LMS I have worked with, the file that the LMS wants to look at first is NOT the index_SCORM HTML file. It's the imsmanifest.xml file. That's the file that tells the LMS what assets to load and how the links in the LMS's SCORM Player TOC should be set up. The user should be launching the SCORM package via the link in the LMS TOC. My suspicion is that your LMS is not launching the content correctly and some of the required JS files are not being loaded.

Fonts are not displayed properly when Book assembled for PRINT Preview

I am having an issue with fonts not being displayed correctly within Aperture Book design application. I have used a script font (Snell Roundhand) for the cover of my book that has quotations marks around the title. However the quotations marks that are displayed after the book is assembled, go to the default Times Roman not Snell. They do not match the Snell Roundhand font quotations that are supplied with that font. What gives? Also . . . after they the dust cover is displayed the next page is the hard bound foil page which displays Times Roman for the title . . . not the font I have selected (Snell Roundhand). What gives with that? Is there a way to change the font before it goes to the printer. Any work around ideas. I have tried several different fonts to see if anything else comes close. Everything looks like a variation of Times. HELP . . . trying to hit PURCHASE BOOK . . . . hopefully without flaws!!

I kind of remember the foil letters might be fixed - cannot remember but here is a related conversation that might help (or not)

Ps. I have not done this through the Apple book printing service myself - I always order soft cover as give aways and use another service for other printing but live vicariously through others withe the Apple hardcover books.

Chinese Characters Not Displayed Properly when iCal sync with Palm T5

Hi All,
I am having problem with the Chinese Character display on iCal. I am using iMac Intel Core Duo and Palm T5. I can read on my iMac the Chinese Characters which I typed on the iMac. Also I can read on my Palm those Chinese I inputted on my Palm. But both can't display the Chinese Characters inputed by each other. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hello,
I assume your flash disk is using FAT16/32...
You need to specify the character set when mounting it. On the command line...
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/mountpoint -o iocharset=utf8
To include this option in the default VFAT mount options under GNOME, launch gconf-editor, look for the key: /system/storage/default_options/vfat and add iocharset=utf8 to the list of mount options.

PDFs not displaying properly when switching from multiple monitors to single screen

OK, here’s one I can’t find online anywhere. When I am at home I use a second monitor on my Macbook. Adobe reader works just fine opening files and displaying them, but if I disconnect the monitor and just go to the single laptop screen, adobe will no longer display the pdf file. Reader stays open and will display the toolbar from the file or files I had open, but it won’t display the actual documents. I have to quit reader and re-open it in order to display my files correctly.
Any ideas?

Portal Content not displayed correctly when downloaded as mht file

Hi,
When I find interesting articles on SDN (and other Web Sides, too) I normally download them in MHT format (Web Archive) to be able to read them offline.
Technically, the download of SDN articles via MHT format works without any problems but when opening them I get a blank article page (the header and banner is available)
Is there something wrong with my IE8 settings (I had the same issue also with older IE versions) or is this an issue caused by the format used by SDN?
Thanks,
Klaus

Error when trying to set a date type edit field

Hi all
I have an edit text field in a form which is bounded to a date type
database field using dbDataSource.
When i try to set the edit text field value with Today's date by code.
I recieve an error message that the value which
i'm trying to set is not legal. the error number is [131-183].
I use the following code to set the edit field:
If oEditText.Value.Trim = String.Empty Then
            Dim strDate As String
            Dim sboBob As SAPbobsCOM.SBObob =
             oCompany.GetBusinessObjec(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.BoBridge)
             rs = sboBob.Format_DateToString(Microsoft.VisualBasic.Today)
           strDate = rs.Fields.Item(0).Value.ToString().Trim()
Try
       oEditText.Value = strDate
Catch ex As Exception
    SBO_Application.MessageBox("error setting
current date: " & ex.Message)
End Try
End If
My question is how can i set the edit field with a valid value?

Hi!
When writing to EditText.Value you must always use the B1 "DB-Format" as String.
The following examples are assuming (it's a must!) that the EditText-Fields are bound to a corrosponding DataSource (Type Date, Price etc...)
MyDateEditTxt.Value="20080207"
MyPriceEditTxt.Value="1341.79"
The best of it: It's Windows and SBO-GUI-Language independent.
EditText.String must always be written with the format of the actual Language of the SBO-GUI, which can be changed by the user....
You may also have a look at my statements regarding these problems near the end of this thread:
