Essentially you are incrementally asking us to write each line for you. I recommend freeing yourself of this misery and leraning PowerShell. THe answers to all of your questions are learned in the first few hours of study.

How to find the Last modified date and time of a package

Hi,
We need a clarification on how to find the Last modified date and time of a package in Oracle. We used the example below to explain our scenario,
Lets consider the following example
Let A, B be two packages.
Package A calls the package B. So A is dependent on B.
When A is compiled the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated.
Now there a modification in package B so it is compiled. There is no modification in package A.
Now when the package A is executed the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated but we did not make any change in Package A. Now we need to find last modified date and time of the package A . So we can not rely on the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS . Can u please tell us any other solution to get last modified date and time of the package A .
Regards,
Vijayanand.C

Here is an example:
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 2004-05-20:10:57:32 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 VALID
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE A AS
2 BEGIN
3 NULL;
4 NULL;
5 END;
6 /
Procedure created.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 INVALID
SQL> EXEC B
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 11:01:53 2004-05-20:11:01:53 VALID
Note that the date under the column 'created' only changes when you really create or replace the procedure.
Hence you can use the column 'created' of 'user_objects'.

How to find the last modified date of a workflow.

How to find the last modified date of a workflow.
thanks.

Hi,
There is nothing as standard that does this - you could write some code to determine the latest begin_date from each of the workflow tables and assume that this was the last time that the definition changed.
What you need is something like this:
select max(wfa.begin_date)
from   wf_process_activities wpa
,      wf_activities          wfa
,      wf_item_types_tl       wit
where wpa.activity_item_type = wfa.item_type
and    wpa.activity_name      = wfa.name
and    wfa.version            = (select max(version) from wf_activities wfa1 where wpa.activity_item_type = wfa1.item_type and wpa.activity_name = wfa1.name )
and    wpa.process_item_type = 'your item type'
and    wpa.process_item_type = wit.namewhich I think gives what you want.

Matt

How to get last modified date and time of a file which is in apache server.

Hi ,
I need to get last modified date and time of a file in remote machine.
This file is in remote machine which has apache server installed.
I am trying to get this information by connecting to apache server from client by giving absolute URI of the file to file object.
URI is got from apache server URL by using toURI method.
when I use lastModified method , its throwing exception , because scheme of URI is not file.
I can't give scheme as file because ftp server is not installed on that server
Is there any other way to get this information .

No, unless you can use an FTP client.

Get last modified date and time of sharepoint site through Search

Hi All,
I am trying to get the last updated date and time of a sharepoint site using KeywordQuery.
For this I updated an existing list item, added a new item in a site and crawled the content. Then I used "ContentClass:STS_Site" as query in C# code to fetch the search results. I am able to get most of the properties I require for that
site. However "LastModifiedTime" does not return the correct value. It returns an older value.
How can I get the last updated date of a sharepoint site using search ?

How can you find the Last Modified Date of a particular table

Hi,
I want to show to the LAST MODIFIED date of a particular table to the user before refreshing the table with new data. Experts please suggest me the way using JDBC-SQL connection.

There is no generic SQL way for this. It depends completely on the features your DBMS offers. With Oracle you'd need to create column which gets updated in a trigger. I believe MS SQL Server offers a special data type for this, which is updated automatically. I don't know about others.

Finding the Sample Library File and the Wyoming Folder

I had a 30 day trial and purchased the activation code (not the DVD). The "Exploring Aperture" tutorial mentions getting the Sample Library File and Wyoming Folder from the installation disk.

How to find the last modified documents

Hi
Is there any navigation iview which displays last modified documnets or any custom development is required.
I have a requirement to prepare an iview which shows the latest 10 documnets and each document have a link
When end-user enters portal theres no functionality to show what is new or has been modified from last visit. By creating such an iView that will go through KM Documents and list last modified to an iView as links this functionality can be established.
Links will open either to new browser window or navigate users to that document in portal.
While iView creates list of modified documents, permissions to those files need to be checked. No links to files which user does not have permissions will not be shown in iView.
Configurable custom properties:
Amount of documents listed in iView can be configured from iView properties. For example:
Amount Of Documents = 10
can you please suggest in the above problem?

Hi Durga,
there is a How-To Guide on how to create an iView that displays the latest 10 documents (with links).
Here the link:<a href="https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700007276522005E.ZIP">Configuring the Last10Documents Scenario</a>

PS Script to find the list of users and the groups in a Workgroup server

Hi There, could you please explain on how to get a complete list of local users and local groups in a "Workgroup" server to which they belong to using Powershell. I'm able to get the users list but couldn't find any help in finding
the script to find to which localgroup the user belong to. Anticipating your response. Also let me know the cmdlet for Win2k3 servers to find the same.

Here's some code from David Pham (don't remember wher I fund this code):
Trap {"Error: $_"; Break;}
Function EnumLocalGroup($LocalGroup)
$Group = [ADSI]"WinNT://$strComputer/$LocalGroup,group"
"Group: $LocalGroup"
# Invoke the Members method and convert to an array of member objects.
$Members= @($Group.psbase.Invoke("Members"))
ForEach ($Member In $Members)
$Name = $Member.GetType().InvokeMember("Name", 'GetProperty', $Null, $Member, $Null)
$Name
# Specify the computer.
$strComputer = gc env:computername
"Computer: $strComputer"
$computer = [adsi]"WinNT://$strComputer"
$objCount = ($computer.psbase.children | measure-object).count
$i=0
foreach($adsiObj in $computer.psbase.children)
switch -regex($adsiObj.psbase.SchemaClassName)
"group"
{ $group = $adsiObj.name
EnumLocalGroup $group }
} #end switch
$i++
} #end foreach

Need an app or a script to find a list of files and retrieve them

A few years ago at an old job I used an application that could search a hard drive for a list of images all in one shot. The names of the images were typed into a txt file. the text file was used as the search list and the application would report back if the images were found and it would retrieve them. Where can I get my hands on something like This or can it be built in Automator?

'I used an application that could search a hard drive for a list of images all in one shot ... and it would retrieve them.' - desired result is too vague.
'Where can I get my hands on something like this ... - perform a 'Google' or equivalent search.
"... or can it be built in Automator?' - possibly yes.
On your behalf the above request is re-written below.
Can someone assist me in AppleScript scripting. I am trying to open a '.txt' file which lists on each line a file to search for, and if found - to open its containing folder. Is such a process also possible with 'Automator'? Thank you for any assistance.
One possible AppleScript solution:
-- Code starts here --
set tFile to read (choose file) -- One was to obtain the file, to open.
set tPars to paragraphs of tFile -- create a list of paragraphs of selected file.
repeat with i in tPars -- Cycle through the list of paragraphs.
with timeout of 0 seconds -- Prevent AppleScript timeout error.
set tItems to paragraphs of (do shell script ("locate " & (quoted form of i))) -- Obtain list of found filename files.
end timeout
repeat with j in tItems -- Cycle through the list of found file.
try
set {oAStid, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, "/"} -- Extract container of file.
set fPath to text items 1 through -2 of j
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "/"
set fPath to fPath as string
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oAStid
do shell script ("open " & fPath) -- Open container of file.
end try
end repeat
end repeat
-- Code ends here --
If the above sample code is not exactly what you seek - then edit the code accordingly; and / or post requests with specific details.
'Is such an action also possible with 'Automator'?' - please post an properly constructed request to the 'Tiger - Automator'
forum.

Show the last edit date and time ?

I can't find a way to see the actual date and time of the last edit made. I see where you can sort the view by this in grid mode.
Has anyone figured this out?
Thanks.

You can see it in the Metadata panel with the EXIF or ALL sets. There isn't a way to display it on the image using View Options, however.

How can we update the last synchronization date and time..on SUP in sccm 2012 R2

Hi,
Can you any one please guide me how can i update the last synchronization date & time in SUP on SCCM2012 r2 , some how its updated as future date and when ever i try to synch the SUP with disconnected WSUS its shows in the wsyncmgr.log
"Wakeup for a polling cycle " and " Wakeupby inbox drop" and "Wakeup by SCF change"
Thanks
Balaji K

You'll probably have to call CSS on this one as this not normal by any means. The messages you noted above are completely normal but if that's all you are seeing then there's an issue.
Have you reviewed wcm.log and wsusctrl.log?
