What is the easy way to update Managed Metadata field multi select values using client object model C#?

The below mentioned code works sometimes and doesn't most of the time. What is the real best way to update multi select managed metadata fields?
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File file = site.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl("/sites/myspsite/Documents/Presentation2.pptx");
clientContext.Load(file);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
ListItem currentItem = file.ListItemAllFields;
clientContext.Load(currentItem);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
currentItem["Country"] = "-1;#India|1d13cfe9-d6f4-4bd3-a6c7-4b46a81f2a96;#-1;#China|9c1dff73-82db-44b1-8d70-f4258dd24e47;#-1;#USA|b9295c0b-67d4-4dc5-99d4-e88af888de48";
currentItem["Title"] = "Demo Doc";
currentItem.Update();
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
file.CheckIn("test check-in", CheckinType.MajorCheckIn);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();

What's the proper way to update this table field?

I've got a table with a field of TOTAL. There's a linked table with a field of AMOUNT. There's one main table record to multiple linked records. I'd like to replace the TOTAL with the sum of Amount for each link. I'm
having a hard time setting up an update query to do that. Any suggestions?
ajw

The proper way is almost certainly not to store the totals in a column in a table at all, but to compute them in an aggregating query, e.g. to return the sum of transaction amounts per customer:
SELECT CustomerID, SUM(Amount) AS TotalAmount
FROM Transactions
GROUP BY CustomerID;
Storing aggregated values is only necessary if these can legitimately be amended independently of the values from which they are computed. This is not out of the question, but is rarely the case.

What's the best way to update my Mac with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

I've been getting prompts whenever I look at certain websites to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I'm skeptical as to responding to those prompts. What is the best way to update my Mac Pro with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

You might also want to consider uninstalling Adobe Flash... I currently don't have it installed and haven't needed to install it. Most websites are now coded in HTML 5 so that the iOS devices can actually visit them. I can still watch YouTube videos et al. About the only thing I can't do is play Flash games... but they're a resource hog anyways.
Try going without for a day or two and see just how many sites you visit no longer require it. A lot of people keep it installed out of habit, not out of necessity. If you have Flash installed, visit a site and it's out of date, it will tell you to update your Flash. What it won't do is tell you is that had Flash not been installed, it would have used the HTML 5 code instead. Think about it... if an iOS device can't run Flash at all... it can't visit this site if it were written only to use Flash. What site would eliminate such a huge portion of their market base? You'd be surprised at how many sites use HTML 5. Uninstall Flash and see for yourself.

I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1. What is the best way to update my phone to the latest iOS platform?

I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1. What is the best way to update my phone to the latest iOS platform?

you can update over the air with strong wireless signal, or by connecting to a computer running iTunes. Either works well. If you do the update over the air, be sure and attach your iPhone to a wall outlet so you have a solid power supply and don't risk the battery dying during the update.
The iTunes approach installs a much larger file because of the connection, but if you have not updated since 5.1 that might be a better approach...replace the entire operating system instead of patching.
Either way, backup the iPhone yourself just for your own protection in the off-chance something should go wrong...a little paranoia while updating is a good thing

What is the best way to update the delivery time?

Hi All,
One of the tasks I have in my job is to updste purchase orders with information found in the orderconfirmation we receive. In the order screen, ME22N, you can change the date in the item, where you have all positions listed. But you can also change it in the tab classifications.
What is the best way to update the delivery time?
Best Regards
Praveen

Hi
It may userfull to you
If you change the delivery date after you have send the PO, then the statistical delivery date is still containing the old delivery date., as long the order is not send this date is changed together with the delivery date.
Vendor evaluation is performed based on statistical delivery date.
So if you are responsible for a date change, then you change both dates, that the vendor does not get bad points. but if the vendor cannot deliver at the wished dates, then you change the delivery date only, that all people in your company and MRP run can rely on the new delivery date, but your vendor is evaluated against the old date, because of his fault.

What's the easiest way to update my site regularly?

What's the easiest way to update my site? I update with new content every month, sometimes more often. (I don't use .mac) When I do, I delete my whole site, then have to upload the whole site with it's updates (the main file along with the index file).
Is there a way to only update, let's say, ONE page? And if so, will I still have to delete that page?

Hello, what is the best way for me to convert RW2 raw format for use in Photoshop CC

Hello, what is the best way for me to convert RW2 raw format for use in Photoshop CC. I would appreciate any help with this.

Thanks for the quick help. I do have to leave for work. When I try to
download the images from the camera they seem to only be in jpeg (I don't
see any rw2 or raw files to download). If I select the jpeg file it seems
to only download a jpeg file. I do understand that I do have the option to
open the jpeg in RAW. In doing this, is all the extra information included
in the RAW file there or is it lost coming from the camera
Once again thank you for trying to make me understand how this works.
Have a great day.

Update Managed Metadata field in SharePoint 2013 Designer Workflow for O365

Hi Guys,
I need to update the managed metadata field in SharePoint Custom List using Workflow but its not working. I have also tried to use the HTTP WebService POST Operation but no luck.
Am doing this for a SharePoint Online (O365) Site.
Has anyone worked on something similar and was able to get it running ?
I saw a post to create a custom Workflow Activity but I don't have a choice to go with the custom code option.
http://patrickboom.wordpress.com/2013/07/23/workflow-activity-set-managed-metadata-column/
I was able to achieve this by creating a SP 2010 based Workflow for O365. Which means that it worked well with SP 2010.
Is there a different way to do it in 2013 ? I tried almost all options apart from creating custom Activity but nothing worked out.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Nutan

Hi Nutan,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update Managed Metadata field with SharePoint 2013 Designer for SharePoint Online.
As far as I know, there is not an OOB action to achieve your requirement with SharePoint 2013 Designer for SharePoint 2013. Customizing a workflow action is a better option to achieve it. Why didn’t you customize a workflow action as Patrick’s blog?
In addition, please take a look at the article about Nintex workflow, check whether it is useful for you:
http://habaneroconsulting.com/insights/setting-managed-metadata-fields-in-a-nintex-workflow#.UykBSf6KDHo
As this issue is about SharePoint Online, I suggest you create a new thread on SharePoint Online forum:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=onlineservicessharepoint . More experts will assist you.
I hope this helps.

Quering the database using Client Object Model

Hi,
I have to fetch the list items from a list named "Project Status" and display it in a table using
Client Object model.
The equivalent server side code is:
SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web;
SPList list = web.Lists["Project Status"];
DataTable dt1 = new DataTable();
try
if (list.ItemCount > 0)
DataColumn dc;
DataColumn dc1;
dc = new DataColumn("ProjectId", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dc1 = new DataColumn("Project Name", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dt1.Columns.Add(dc);
dt1.Columns.Add(dc1);
DataRow dr;
foreach (SPListItem item in list.Items)
dr = dt1.NewRow();
dr["ProjectId"] = item["ProjectId"];
dr["Project Name"] = item["Project Name"];
dt1.Rows.Add(dr);
Repeater1.DataSource = dt1;
Repeater1.DataBind();
catch (Exception Ex)
throw Ex;
1 more issue what i face is providing two links in the Visual WebPart and their navigate url is based on a condition that is fetched from the database. This corresponding code has to be converted to
Client Object Model.
string user = web.CurrentUser.LoginName;
string userID = user.Split(new char[] { '\\' })[1];
string connString = @"Data Source=NorthWind;Initial Catalog=EmployeeDB;User ID=sa;Password=Newuser123";
string query = "select * from EMPLOYEE_PROFILE";
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, conn);
try
conn.Open();
DataTable t1 = new DataTable();
using (SqlDataAdapter a = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd))
a.Fill(t1);
DataRow[] dr = t1.Select("PsNo = '" + userID + "'"); //This will select all rows where the Name Column has current user
foreach (DataRow r in dr)
string bU = r["DeputedBU"].ToString();
if (bU == "INS" || bU == "BFS")
lnkPM.NavigateUrl = web.Site.WebApplication.Sites[0].Url + "/Dashboard.aspx";
lnkSummary.NavigateUrl = web.Site.WebApplication.Sites[0].Url + "/DashboardWithHyperlinks.aspx";
else
lnkPM.Visible = false;
lnkSummary.Visible = false;
catch (Exception)
throw;
finally
conn.Close();
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
According to your post, there would be two questions in this single thread.
It is recommended to post one question in one single thread which will make others easier to focus on one question in one thread.
For the first question, you want to fetch list items and put into a DataTable object using Client Object Model.
To fetch list items from a list using Client Object Model, you can take a look at the code snippet below from MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ee534956(v=office.14).aspx
For the second question, you might need to retrieve the User object and site collections object using Client Object Model.
However, if you can develop a Visual Web Part for your site, it means that you will be able to access the SharePoint Object Model which has more powerful APIs, so there is no
need to use Client Object Model in a Visual Web Part.

Unable to get the SharePoint 2013 List names using Client object model for the input URL

Please can you help with this issue.
We are not able to get the SharePoint 2013 List names using Client object model for the input URL.
What we need is to use default credentials to authenticate user to get only those list which he has access to.
clientContext.Credentials = Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
But in this case we are getting error saying ‘The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.’
Instead of passing Default Credentials, if we pass the User credentials using:
clientContext.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("Administrator", "password", "contoso")
It authenticates the user and works fine. Since we are developing a web part, it would not be possible to pass the user credentials. Also, the sample source code works perfectly fine on the SharePoint 2010 environment. We need to get the same functionality
working for SharePoint 2013.
We are also facing the same issue while authenticating PSI(Project Server Interface) Web services for Project Server 2013.
Can you please let us know how we can overcome the above issue? Please let us know if you need any further information from our end on the same.
Sample code is here: http://www.projectsolution.com/Data/Support/MS/SharePointTestApplication.zip
Regards, PJ Mistry (Email: [email protected] | Web: http://www.projectsolution.co.uk | Blog: EPMGuy.com)

Hi Mistry,
I sure that CSOM will authenticate without passing the
"clientContext.Credentials = Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials" by default. It will take the current login user credentials by default. For more details about the CSOM operations refer the below link.

            clientContext.Load(collField);
            clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
