VB Button to kick off a script

Hi Experts, can anyone please tell me if there is a way to create a VB Button on a template to kick off a script? We tried sending in data based on formulas in a template but realize it would be much quicker via script. It would have to be seemless for our end users so a button to do this would be optimal. Any suggestions? Thanks, Tracey

Hi,
I have the VBA working with one exception, it brings up the script I want to run but then I need to click "Finish" to actually launch the script. My Code is below. How can I have it automatically run the script without me having to click "Finish" on the dialouge prompt/window?
PS - Even though the teamid is Company (Public) I still needed to leave that String blank in the DataManagerRunPackage line for it to work... not sure why.
Thanks all!
Sub RUNPACKAGE()
Dim ea As New FPMXLClient.EPMAddInAutomation
Dim packageId As String, groupId As String, teamId As String
ea.DataManagerRunPackage "FPP_SPREAD", "Data Management", ""
End Sub

Auto-kick off MaxL script after Oracle GL data load?

Hi guys, this question will involve 2 different modules: Hyperion and Oracle GL.
My client has their accounting department updating Oracle GL on a daily basis. My end-user client would like to write a script to automatically kick off the existing MaxL script which is for our daily data load in Hyperion. Currently, the MaxL script is manually executed.
What's the best approach to build a connection for both modules to communicate with each other? Can we use a timer to trigger the run? If so, how?

#1 External scheduler.
I've worked on Appworx and it has build a chain dependent task. There are many other external schedulers like Tivoli,....
#2 As Daniel pointed out you can use Windows scheduler.
For every successful GL load add a file to a folder which is accessible for your Essbase task.
COPY Nul C:\Hyperion\Scripts\Trigger\GL_Load_Finished.txt
Create another bat file which is scheduled to run on every 5 or 10 mins (this should start just after your GL Load scheduled task)
This is an example i've for a triggered Essbase job.
IF EXIST %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Full_Build_Started.txt (
Echo "Full Build started"
) else (
     IF EXIST %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Custom_Build_Started.txt (
     Echo "Custom Build started"
     ) else (
          IF EXIST %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Post_Build_Batch_Started.txt (
          Echo "Post Build started"
          ) else (
          IF EXIST %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Start_Full_Build.txt (
          Echo "Trigger found starting batch"
          MOVE %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Start_Batch.txt %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Full_Build_Started.txt
          call %BASE_DIR%\Scripts\Batch_Files\Monthly_Build_All_Cubes.bat
          ) else (
               IF EXIST %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Start_Custom_Build.txt (
               Echo "Trigger found starting Custom batch"
               MOVE %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Start_Custom_Batch.txt %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Custom_Build_Started.txt
               call %BASE_DIR%\Scripts\Batch_Files\Monthly_Build_All_Cubes_Custom.bat
               ) else (
                    IF EXIST %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Start_Post_Build_Batch.txt (
                    Echo "Trigger found starting Post Build batch"
                    MOVE %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Start_Post_Build_Batch.txt %BASE_DIR%\Trigger\Post_Build_Batch_Started.txt
                    call %BASE_DIR%\Scripts\Batch_Files\Monthly_Post_Build_All_Cubes.bat
)So this bat file if it finds Start_Full_Build.txt in the trigger location, it'll rename that to Full_Build_Started.txt and will call the Full Build (likewise for custom and post build)

Clusterware 10g: what kicks off 3rd-party failover script?

I am trying to use Oracle Clusterware 10g (installed on two identical Dell Linux boxes,
OEL 5.2) to failover a 3rd-party application, specifically websphere MQ. I have a ksh
script that is supposed to start/stop/restart the application.
Clusterware will fail over the IP address fine to the other box if I yank the primary box's
cable, but the app itself doesn't fail over. If I knew what (in Clusterware) did the
"kicking off" of the ksh script I could troubleshoot it more. I used the instructions in:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/clusterware/pdf/TWP-Oracle-Clusterware-3rd-party.pdf
and I'm pretty sure I did it right.
Any ideas?

Radio button's click event to script both ".presence" and ".mandatory" -- Need help !

Hi all,
I've adopted the script stated in HightlightOneRequiredField.pdf so that the print button in my form can detect and prevent null field before pop up the print dialog. It works fine.
In my form, I've created a mandatory 2-radio buttons group with click event script written, using ".presence", in each button. When user clicks:
Button A: make subform A visible and subform B invisible;
Button B: make subform A invisible and subform B visible.
Apart from the visibility of the subforms, what I want more is to add a .mandatory script (together with the click event) in the buttons to turn some fields' mandatory in the subforms on and off so that when user clicks:
Button A: will also turn some fields' value type in subform A to be "User
Entered-Required", whereas some of that in subform B to be "-
optional";
Button B: will turn the subform B's fields to "-Required" and subform A's
fields back to "-optional"
However no luck with me. When I press the print button after any of the radio buttons checked, the print dialog still show up even the subforms' fields are null as if those fields' value type always remain "-optional"
I wonder if this problem is caused by Chinese binding name ? The script written in the radio button B is:
FormA.presence = "invisible";
FormB.presence = "visible";
if (B1.mandatory = "disabled")
B1.mandatory = "error";
if (B2.mandatory = "disabled")
B2.mandatory = "error";
if (B3.mandatory = "disabled")
B3.mandatory = "error";
if (A1.mandatory = "error")
A1.mandatory = "disabled";
if (A2.mandatory = "error")
A2.mandatory = "disabled";
if (A3.mandatory = "error")
A3.mandatory = "disabled";
B1, B2 and B3 represent the Chinese fields' binding name in FormB
A1, A2 and A3 represent the Chinese fields' binding name in FormA
(The script in radio button A is reversed in this way.)
Have I done something wrong in the above (click event) javascript?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Kick off SSIS master package once new data gets into a transactional table

hello
I have a SSIS master package.. I also have an UI which the user uses to configure up some date ranges (that I need to use to load the data from the package). After date configuration, when user clicks on RUN SSIS button in UI, that configured data gets loaded
up in a transactional db table. Once new data is entered into that table, i need to kick off this master SSIS package.
Question is , is there any other method besides using table triggers?
Please advice.
Thanks

Another method is to have a automated job created in SQL Agent which keeps on polling the transactional table. you can configure it to run periodically (may be every 30 mins etc). Each time it starts it needs to check the status of a table which captures
details of whether user has pressed RUN SSIS button (you need to include that logic in UI to set a bit in a status table when button is pressed). If status is set, it will check if transactional table has data (IF EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM Table)). Once these two
are truw it will go to next step where it calls master package. At the end it needs to log somewhere that data transfer is completed and also need to reset the bit field as well.
So job will have three steps
Step1: check bit is set and table has data
ie
IF (SELECT bitField FROM StatusTable)=1 AND EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM TTable)
SELECT 1
ELSE
RAISERROR 'Table not ready',16,1
and set job advanced option as
quit job reporting success for failure condition and go to next step for success condition
Step2: Execute master package
Step3: rest status bit and update daya transfer status in a log table with date of run,record count etc
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

HT4623 Getting kicked off an App

Help! When i am on an App on my Ipad there are many times when I get kicked off and the screen on the ipad goes to the home screen. This is rediculice! What can I do???

Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

When ever i click on "edit" I get kicked off of dreamweaver. Then i
get this box with this saying: "The application dreamweaver has
unexpectedly quit. The system and other application have not been
affected." This has never happen before. I've only had dreamweaver
for less then 4 weeks, and I haven't downloaded anything new. I
have been using dreamweaver everyday, and this is the first time of
this happening. All the other buttons at the top work just fine.
It's only the "edit" button at the top that makes the application
quite. I have restarted the application 3 times, and each time i
hit "edit" it happens all over again. Please HELP!
Why_atl

Yowsers! Have you restarted your computer? If it still does
that I'd try reinstalling Dreamweaver. If it still does it then I'd
probably call Adobe.

I have an original iMac running on 10.4.11. I am kicked off the internet because it is asking for a Keychain password - I do not have a keychain password.

I have an original iMac running on 10.4.11. Suddenly I could not sign on to my browser, although I was connected to the internet - with 4 bars. I would get signed on and then get kicked off because Safari was requesting a Keychain password. I never used keychain so did not have a password.
Eventually i tried to reload the original software, but am niow unable to get the computer restarted and startup disk is in the machine. I have tried to start by holding down the "C" key, but after the apple comes on it reverts to a "Darwin message"

Try holding down the option key then power on. This brings up the startup manager. Click on your hd. Click on right arrow key.
What does the darwin mesage say?
Run hardware test.

Why do I keep getting kicked off line when I'm in the middle of something

Why is it I keep getting kicked off in the middle of doing something

Try #5.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
