What's the best way to develop a Numbers layout like a Pages layout?

Is there a way to manage layouts in Numbers to make them look like this Pages layout? http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b179/jennfrank22/Picture1.png It's an 11 X 17 document that has two 7.125 inch columns and a .75 inch gutter.
I've only been able to get this far with it in Numbers. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b179/jennfrank22/Picture4.png There is a Columns option under the Text menu but it doesn't allow me to create an identical layout like the one in Pages. I have large tables that tend to overflow from one page to another but I'd like them to overflow starting from left hand side of the first page to the right hand side of the second page. For example, http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b179/jennfrank22/Picture6.png
Thanks

I don't think that is possible! You don't have the same layout possibilities in Numbers as you have in Pages. (Yet) So if a table overflows one page it is "autoplaced" at the same location on the next page and. But there are some possible solutions to your layout.
1. Split the table where it overflows. (you can still do calculations across tables) Best
2. Create your layout on two separate pages and print as two-up. Easiest but you won't get correct page numbering etc.
3. I'm totally wrong, and there's a clever setting I've missed

What is the best way to export a slideshow .I like to show my slideshows via appleTV on my TV

What is the best way to export a slideshow.I like to view the show trough AppleTV on my television.

You don't really give us a lot of information to work with, and assume we know something about this mdeia player. The only way to get the slideshow to a media player is to export it from iPhoto. To where? Depends on the media player. Will iTunes work? Depends on the media player. Does the media player have a DVD drive? If so, then burning it to DVD with iDVD will work, but it will be standard def not HD.

What is the best way to make a photo look like a painting in CS5 ?

I'd like to convert a photo into an oil painting, can you suggest the best method to do this in CS5? I'd also like to do pencil drawings as well.

I didn't follow any tutorial. It's not hard, though - just do as I mentioned with the Mixer Brush Tool.
Make a transparent layer over the original image (I'd suggest upsampling it some), then call up the Mixer Brush Tool, choose a bristle brush, and set it to Sample All Layers. Fool with the settings until it mixes for you in a way that you can make nice smooth strokes over the original. You'll be picking up color from the photo underneath and smearing it around on the top layer. If part of it doesn't come out the way you like, just erase it. Don't set up to use too many bristles; the object isn't smooth perfection, but to show some strokes.
Here's just a few minutes work with the technique...
When you're all done you can do things to accentuate the brush strokes, such as create another layer and run the Filter - Stylize - Emboss tool, then set the layer mode to Overlay blending. This gives the image some texture...
The only way to really get to know the Mixer Brush is to experiment with it. Find settings that allow you to do what you want easily. Fool with it until it yields!
Have fun!

What's the best way to insert a numbers sheet into pages?

I have some spreadsheets in numbers that I want to insert in pages...somehow it's not so intuitive.
First of all when I paste them in a pages text box...a part of the sheets fall off the botom of the page
Even a bigger problem...The should be in landscape...while all my text is in portrait...
Anybody?
Thx.

(1) you can't insert a sheet in Pages. Only tables !
(2) before pasting your table in Pages, you may resize it so that it may fit in a page.
(3) the users which took time to look in Pages User Guide are aware of a feature described as : Linking Text Boxes.
It's a good answer to your problem.
In a Word Processor document, create a text box and paste your table in the new tex box.
At the bottom of the box you will see a small square with a symbol plus. It's a flag warning you that the box contents is too large for the box.
No problem, insert a page break to force the opening of a new page then read carefully the user guide :
Applying what I highlighted, you will create a new box linked to the first one so that your table will flow in it.
If it's not sufficient, you may link a third box …
More, we are allowed to rotate the text boxes so you may edit them a way allowing them to host your landscape table.
From my user's point of view, it's absolutely intuitive.

What is the best way to get phone numbers from an iPhone 3g to an iPhone 4s?

I am planning on buying an iPhone 4s but i was just wondering how i would get my contacts on the new phone? I am on o2 .#
Thank you!

That's not a problem. With a new device, you could connect to iTunes, set it up and restore from the backup of the old device (either including, or not, the contacts). Then, with the same iCloud account setup on it, you could enable contact syncing and go from there. In the iCloud settings on the iPhone, you can selective enable/disable the things you want to use iCloud for. Contact sync via iCloud is a separate on/off setting, so you can use iCloud just for email and contacts, and nothing else if you wished. Then use iTunes sync for everything else.
Personally, even if you use iCloud for all its possible features, I'd still suggest backing up in iTunes once in a while too - an iTunes backup is more complete than an iCloud backup.

R12 Suppliers mass upload (what is the best way?)

Hi everyone,
I just want to make sure what is the best way to upload mass numbers of suppliers in R12. I have tried the Interface before. But is there a non technical way like Web ADI for example? I have tried the dataload but it is really not practical when I tried it.
Any advice would be appreciated

Hi,
To load any data from Excel into forms I use a freeware winparrot .
You have to launch the recorder (It record key and mouse events with screenshots), thereafter it can replay and loop using your Excel spreadsheet (For each record you can write results into the sheet).
I write macros in the test environment (blue forms) and it can recognize the field in production environment (green forms).
After recording you have to insert 4 functions:
To loop: Goto()
To read from Excel : XlsReadData()
To write into Excel : XlsWriteData()
To check 'One record saved...' : Ifshape() + move the red square over the expected message
that all.
Hope it helps.

What is the best way to stack DAQ aquired data in labview?

I'm developing an application to work with an M-series daq card and labview 8.5 to output a signal and then record on 8 differential inputs for a short period of time (~10 ms). I need to stack my data, however, because the incoming signal will be very, very small, even after amplification. So basically i'm running a slightly modified version of the multifunction Synch AI-AO.vi (included with the install of daqmx). What is the best way for me to rerun this vi a set number of times and add new data directly to the old data (not cat-ing or anything, like |sample 1 of run 1| + |sample 1 of run 2| = stacked stample 1).
A slightly modified version of the mutlifunction synch AI-AO.vi is attached.

Hi LSU,
see attachment on how to "stack" several measurements. I simply add the waveforms and use a shift register to keep the last iterations value.
Writing to files in each iteration is extremly CPU consuming - especially with express vis. Using for loops for just one iteration is "senseless". You could enable the conditional terminal of the for loop to realize your stop feature.

What is the best way to add external C++ code to LabView 6.1?

I have various C++ class-based DLL's written with Visual Studio 6.0 and wish
to create instances of these C++ classes and call their methods in LabView
6.1. What is the best way to do this?
It seems based on the little reading I have done that there are two choices:
1. Wrap the C++ class as a simple COM control and use LabView's COM based
VIs to create a COM object and access the methods of various interfaces.
2. Wrap the C++ class methods as C functions and a "constructor" and
"destructor" C function to create and destroy an instance of the class. Then
use LabView's DLL call support.
Which is best? What direction is LabView going to take that better supports
the notion of C++ class libraries?
Thanks,

You could also try using a CIN. This is a tool that LabVIEW provides for interfacing with external code.
The CINTools libraries of LabVIEW allow you to embed compiled C code into a particular Virtual Instrument (VI) using a CIN.
In order for LabVIEW to be capable of calling compiled functions of C from a running VI, the code must be loaded and unloaded into memory at the same time as the VI code itself. LabVIEW uses object code in the form of a .lsb file which is generated by the C compiler from the C source code using the ntlvsbm.mak file. This ntlvsbm.mak file is included in the CINtools directory in the LabVIEW folder. You also must create another .mak file which includes parameter definitions for the ntlvsbm.mak file and also includes a call to the LabVIEW .mak file.
The generic documentation for CINs only explains how to use them to call C compiled code from a LabVIEW VI. It shows several development environments such as Visual C++, but in essence it only allows the user to create .lsb files out of plain C source code ( .c ) through C compilers on those environments.
The question now is how can I create .lsb files from C++ native source code using a C++ compiler. Furthermore, how can I create a .lsb file from several C++ source code files (.cpp) and make calls to C++ functions from a VI using CINs? The following explains how to do this:
1) Drop a Code Interface Node (from the Advanced Subpalette of the Functions Palette) into the LabVIEW VI. Make sure to wire the inputs.
2) Right-click on the CIN and choose "Create.c File...", then in the file dialog box specify a "name.cpp" file name. (very important: use .cpp extension)
3) Then create a name.mak makefile (text file) and add the following lines :
name=name_of_cpp_file_without_the_extension
type=CIN
cinlibraries=Kernel32.lib
CINTOOLSDIR=path_to_cintools_directory
!include <$(CINTOOLSDIR)\ntlvsb.mak>
4) Go into Visual C++ and File>Open and open the .mak file. You can even Add the name.cpp file to the project to make it easier to edit. Select that name.cpp or open it as a text file in NotePad or and edit the prototypes of the CIN MgErr functions as shown below, adding extern "C" at the beginning of the line. extern "C" CIN MgErr CINRun(float64 *INPUT);3) Select Build.exe to create the "name.lsb" file. To import the .lsb into LabVIEW, right-click on the CIN and choose "Load Code Resource...". Then, choose the name.lsb file and it is ready to run!
If you want to use several C++ source code files with .cpp extensions, then compile them in Visual C++ and link them to name.cpp and create a .lsb by modifying the name.mak as follows:
name=name_of_cpp_file_without_the_extension
otherobj=other_cpp_files_BUT_USING_.obj_extension
type=CIN
cinlibraries=Kernel32.lib
CINTOOLSDIR=path_to_cintools_directory
!include <$(CINTOOLSDIR)\ntlvsbm.mak>
It's worth a try? I have also heard of using clusters to represent classes, so you could check that out.

What is the best way to kill/stop a data load?

Hi.
What is the best way to kill/stop a data load?
I have a data load from my QA R/3 system that is extracting 115.000.000+ records. The problem is that the selection in the function module used in the data source does not work, and the problem was not detected because of the nature of the data on the development system.
I could kill processes owned by my background user (on both R/3 and BW) but I risk killing other loads, and sometimes the job seems to restart if I just try to kill processes. If I remove transactional RFCs in SM58 the load does not terminate; I only skip one or more datapackages. I have also tried to change the QM-status in the monitor to red, but that does not stop the load either...
So isn't there a nice fool-proof way of stopping a dataload?
Best regards,
Christian Frier

Hi,
There r 2 ways to kill the job.
One is using transation RSMO locate the job and display the status tab double click on the yellow light that is shown on the line total, a pop will come 'set overall status ' is displayed select the desired status that is red and save it. Then return to the monitor page and select the header tab double ckick on the data target right click and then goto 'manage',there should be request sitting there probably with yellow lights , highlight the line with the faulty request click the delete button then click refresh button.
Second is goto SM37 and click on the active selection and enter the jobname and then click excute the particulr job should appear highlight the jobname then click on the stop iconthat appears on the taskbar( 3 rd from left)
hope it is clear.

What's the best way to clone my boot drive?

I just bought a new 500GB drive for my G4. What's the best way to clone my boot drive?
Is there a way to put the new drive on the buss as a second drive and then copy everything from my boot drive to the new drive? How do I make the new drive bootable?
Or
Do I have to install OSX on the new drive, put the old boot drive on the buss as a second drive and migrate everything to the new drive with the Utilities Migration Assitant program?
Are there programs available to make this easier? Where & how much?
Thanks for any help I can get.

bamim2:
Dr. Smoke's FAQ Backup and Recovery has excellent advice on developing a backup strategy.
You already have a larger extrnal HDD (Hopefully it is firewire?) The next step is to format and partition the HDD. (see step-by-step below). And thirdly you will need a good cloning utility. Carbon Copy Cloner has already been suggested, and the latest version is excellent. I, personally, prefer SuperDuper for its ease of use and efficiency. Both are great tools and relatively simple to use.
I mentioned the hope that you have a firewire. One of the wonderful benefits of using an external firewire HDD for backing up is that you can make a bootable clone. This gives you an emergency boot drive in case of a problem. It also gives you an external device for running diagnostics and repairs from the extnernal to the computer and vice-versa.

What is the best way to organize queue in R/3?

Hi,
I'm in a middle of a project, where I should implement queue in order to sync data between 2 systems - r/3 and legasy one. I have few user exits (or bussiness events), which could be rised concurently in time, and I need only 1 instance of the sync module to run at a time. Well, I know the technique to prevent a program from running in multiple processes, and I have an idea how to organize a queue (my idea is to use transparent table to track actions which should be sync-ed), but there allways are some 'bottlenecks' that should be considered in such an implementation.
That's why it might be of great help if someone could share his/her knowledge on this topic or point me to the right paper/docu, if available.
I just don't want to reinvent the wheel, if possible
Many thanks in advance.

I'm not sure why you don't just invent a generic data structure (e.g., table name, list of column names and aliases of column names) such as:
class QueryMetaData {
private final String tableName;
private final String[] columnNames;
private final String[] columnAliases;
}Read into the above structure from a properties file, database table, etc. You can store meta-data itself in places other than enum constants, particularly if would like to change the meta-data without requiring a new build of your application.
That having been said, WRT to your specific questions:
(1) Finally, from your experience, what is the best way to organize all that stuff?See above
(2) I have heard that smart Java programmer should avoid using the enums by any means. Do you agree?Enums are better than simple constants using int or String or something similar. If there are known, discrete values unlikely to change frequently, I see no issues with an enum. They improve the readability of code, and there are enough syntactic sugar features in the language (switch statements come to mind) to make them appealing.
(3) Generally what will you prefer when creating a constant which has two values: two final Integers or enum?
See above. Enums were introduced (in large part) to do away with storing constants as integers.

What is the best way to handle .mod files in premiere pro cs4?

I recently got a JVC Everio GZ-MG130u and as I'm sure many of you are aware, it saves footage in the .mod format.
I have googled this and found quite a few different solutions, but I'm just wondering if anything has changed since some of these solutions were posted, or in other words, what is the best way at this current point in time to handle .mod files in premiere pro cs4?
As far as I know, the best thing to do is convert the .mod to .avi and then import it into premiere so it can be edited.. Is there a better way to do it than this? Also, by doing it this way, will I have separate audio and video tracks?
Thanks.

I have just done a bit of reading, here. All of the quotes that follow are from users who have posted in that thread.
It seems that there isn't one solid answer on this subject. The thread that I linked to was started 2 years ago, and replied to just 4 ago, so it's relatively current.
I noticed a couple different interesting statements:
posted by mmontgomery:
In the case of .MOD, you are actually getting a MPEG-2 file. The way
video files work is that there is a codec (COmpressor/DECompressor)
algorithm and a file wrapper (or extension). A JVC .MOD file is a
MPEG-2 encoded file, with a .MOD extension.
You're faced with two
challenges, first the .MOD file type is only recognized and support by a
few applications. I think we covered some of those already. The
interesting thing about wrappers and extensions is that they can be
dealt with in a variety of ways. Sometimes all you need to do to convert
the video file to a compatible video file is to change the extension.
In the case of .MOD files that's not enough. The .MOD wrapper apparently
does a few more things than just bare a unique extension name. It
requires a slightly more complicated method to convert that file. That
is why there is supplied software and that certain third party
applications have .MOD support.
(posted 2 years ago)
This seems to indicate that Ann's solution of simply re-naming the extension is not good enough, unless I am mis-interpreting what she meant.
However, another user said:
posted by futball8:
I edit with Adobe Premiere Pro CS3. All I have to do is simply rename
the .MOD files as .MPG and then import into PP CS3. It takes a small
amount of time to conform the audio, but no file conversion is
necessary. It's a pretty slick workflow and I've never encountered any
problems editing them this way.
(posted 5 months ago)
One can only assume that simply re-naming the extension from .mod to .mpg works in some circumstances, and doesn't work in others. I assume it depends largely on the editing software being used. Perhaps there are still issues that futball8 was simply unaware of or never encountered.
That said, there seems to be a couple of different real solutions to this problem that I have found:
1. Simply use an editing program that supports .mod file format. While pe7 and pe8 supposedly support the .mod format, the following should be noted:
posted by macksgarage:
While Elements 'supports' these files, it is markedly unstable and frequently crashes while using the files, though the application is otherwise reliable. The solution I have arrived at is to repair the container using ffmpeg. (see #3)
(posted 5 months ago)
2. Use a file conversion utility of your choice that will covert .mod to .avi, or another desired format. Import the resulting .avi file into premiere pro cs4.
3. Use FFmpeg. This seems to be the best solution as it does not convert any audio or video:
posted by macksgarae:
If you are not familiar with ffmpeg, it may be a bit of a bear to
learn, but it's not only useful for this, but functions as a video swiss
army knife useful for splicing, muxing/demuxing, and rendering just
about any format into just about any other format.
ffmpeg is an open source project from the linux world, but it has
been ported and is supported on windows. Fetch it here and place it somewhere handy
on your system.
To rewrite the container into a nice, standards compliant .mpg file
that doesn't make applications die, WITHOUT rerendering video or audio
itself, I use this command.
ffmpeg -i INFILE.MOD -acodec copy - vcodec copy OUTFILE.mpg
This not only renames the file, but actually rebuilds the container
around unmodified video and audio data, yielding a file which works much
more stably with Adobe applications, and presumably others as well, as
ffmpeg's open source development goals result in very standards
compliant files.
(posted 5 months ago)
Now, this seems to properly address the issues that can arise from simply renaming .mod to .mpg, as suggested by Ann. So from this point, I assume you can simply import the .mpg into Premiere Pro cs4 (or any other .mpg compliant program) and edit without issue, but it seems like I remember hearing something about Premiere not liking mpegs or something like that, so in that case, maybe it'd be better to skip this and go with option #2. But, it's been awhile since I've touched any NLE, much less premiere pro cs4, so I could be completely wrong and it may have no problems handling mpegs.
All of the things that I've quoted here came from the same thread, so I don't know how accurate any of this is, but the people that have posted these things seem fairly knowledgeable. If someone reads all of this and can confirm or deny any of it, it would be much appreciated.
Option 1 is not really an option for me, because I am sticking with premiere pro cs4 -- I'm not going to get another editor just because it has .mod support. That leaves me with options 2 and 3: Convert to avi, or change the file wrapper/extension properly with FFmpeg and then simply import the resulting .mpg file... Which is better? Or is there yet another solution that I am unaware of that would be even better?
