When to use Db Link LKM

Hi Guru,
why we are using Db Link LKM, to fetch data from remote server
we can achieve same thing through creating DATA SERVER in ODI and creating Physical topology and logical topology
and from that we can create model ??
than what are the benefits to us DB LINK LKM

If you don't use DB Link, you will copy the source data in your target working schema.
A real C$ table will be created and it will be used to create your I$ table (staging integration table)
If you use DB Link, you won't copy the source data. You will just creat a view of these data and reads the view to generate your I$ table.

When I use "Email link" in Firefox, the Outlook message default formatting changes (font, font size, paragraph spacing) - how can I stop this from happening?

In Outlook, my default message format includes the following:
Font: Arial 10pt font
Spacing: Before: 0pt, After: 0pt
When I email a link from Firefox, a new message opens, which has the following formatting:
If I type anything before the URL, the formatting is:
Font: Arial 10pt font
Spacing: Before: 0pt, After: 0pt
If I type anything after the URL, the formatting is:
Font: Times New Roman 12pt font
Spacing: Before: Auto, After: Auto
This doesn't happen with Internet Explorer - when emailing a link, my default message format is retained.
Since I email a lot of links for my job, and I prefer to use Firefox, this is a pretty annoying issue!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Michelle
Outlook 2007
Firefox 36.0.4

From Firefox, I click on "File' and then 'Email link'.
This results in a new Outlook message opening automatically, with the URL copied into the body of the message.
I then add my own text, see the screenshot image. That's where the formatting problems come in!
Cheers,

When I use "Email Link" with Firefox, the "send" button in Thunderbird is grayed out.

OS X 10.9.4
The option of manually copying the link and pasting would work, but I've always been able to use "Email Link" from the "File" menu until the last few days.
Restarting the computer did not help.

Do you have an address in the address field? The send button stays greyed out until there is something in the address field.

Problem in filtering when we use navigation link

Hi all BI Gurus,
I am having one problem can anyone please help me to come out of it.
Here is my problem,
I created two reports. The first one gives you basic idea and the second one give you more detail related to first report.
e.g.
First Report is displaying which type of part is manufacturing in which location.
Like
     Code     -     Location     -     Product Name
     101     -     USA           -           Laptop
     102     -     China           -           Camcorder
     103     -     China           -           Walkman
     102     -     Japan           -           Camcorder
     105     -     Japan           -           Speaker
Now in this report I am having link to my second report on Code column. For this I am using navigation link which will display my second report which will provide more details regarding the selected product. i.g if I click on first 102 then my second report should display details for Camcorder with location China only not for both China and Japan.
I prepared both reports, added that navigation link in first report and in my second report I added filter on Code, Location and Product Name as ‘Is Prompted’
I am running these reports and click on code first 102, my second report is displaying record for both China and Japan. Means it is filtering only code value not other values which are in same row.
Could any one please help me in my problem?
Regards,

hi,
as we can see here the relation is not unique between code - location
Code - Location - Product Name
101 - USA - Laptop
102 - China - Camcorder
103 - China - Walkman
102 - Japan - Camcorder
105 - Japan - Speaker
meaning that code 102 is not unique for location(it address China and Usa),so you have 2 solutions....
So, add a extra column which will be unique describe all the 3 columns,so in order to pass that value to the 2 report.
Now,either you have one...either you have to make one at your etl(let's say add 2 existing columns code + location).
Code - Location - Product Name ------CodeLocation
101 - USA - Laptop------------------------101USA
102 - China - Camcorder-----------------102China
103 - China - Walkman--------------------103China
102 - Japan - Camcorder------------------102Japan
105 - Japan - Speaker----------------------105Japan
in this as you can see if you put navigation at the column CodeLocation,you have unique row selected.
You can also put a sequence in your etl at your table code or location and make a relation between these two...
Tnink,you select value 'A'.Then 'A' must show only to then ones you want....
Here you say,give me all the results of 102,but you want 102 + location!
so in some way you must make Bi to understund.
As i have mentioned you,there are 2 ways...Db or programming
Db is better(you can use it and in other situations and is more good in performance)
Programming is in your hand.(by clicking on something you must assign to 'session' of Bi the values you want to be filteted at the 2.
This can be done...

I have a specific font set for my outlook emails. When I use "send link" and need to add a note in that email, the font changes. How can I stop the font change? Thanks.

I know this it "nit-picky", but to me it is frustrating. Is there a way to lock my chosen font and keep it from changing when a link from the internet is added to the email? Thanks.

I at first thought it might be a Mac thing, but I couldn't find a solution. I realized that the date only affected my email, so then I thought it must be a Mozilla problem.

After a recent upgrade, now when a use a link from a website (eg a photo from autotrader) it opens a blank page but doesn't go to the link page. I tried removing Firefox and reinstalling but no difference. Can anyone help?

I've tried it on many sites but always the same result, a new page but no detail. The header details says "search bookmarks and history". Very strange

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

Outgoing mail to friends sometimes goes to Junk folder when I use a link in

Some of my emails end up in friends Junk folder. My signature has a link to my site, and that might be the reason. Is there a way to keep the link in the signature?

Normally, Firefox has no problem with target="_blank". I wonder whether you are getting some interference from a particularly aggressive add-on pop-up blocker? You could try disabling ALL nonessential extensions and see whether that resolves it.
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
Any difference?

Encore keeps freezing when I use dynamic link from premiere. Any thoughts?

I just got done editing my sequence in Premiere Pro CS6. I've added my chapter markers and sent to Encore via Dynamic Link. Once I choose my project name and location it begins the import. At 50% it freezes. I've tried it on multiple machines and hard drives. I've done this a million times before and have now just run into issues. Any thoughts?
I'm working on a 2010 Mac Pro and a 2013 Macbook Pro (non retina)

You'll have a much better chance asking your question in the Encore forum. There are not many Encore users who venture here. This forum is for general Creative Suite questions.

Safari: how to autofill filename when using 'download linked file as' option

I usually need to download email attachment to specific folders, not to the downloads folder. When I use "download linked file as" I get the option to choose the location, which is great, but the filename is '0'. I don't want to have to cut and paste the filename every time - why doesn't Safari grab the filename automatically, as it does when you just click download? Is there a way around this? It's a big workflow issue for me, and the reason I switched to Chrome previously .. surely there's a fix for this basic function though?
I'm downloading from Gmail running in my browser.
Safari: Version 7.1 (9537.85.10.17.1)
Mac OS X 10.9.5

You can post a screen shot by clicking on the liitle Camera icon above your reply. :)
Just checked on 10.7.4+, still the same, something is borked about your install, to see if we need to re-install...
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?

Using database links in a plsql page process

I am trying to use a database link in a pl/sql page process.
It works fine when I use the link name in the plsql like this:
BEGIN
SELECT
CARD_ID
into
:P12_HDR_CARD_NUMBER
from     [email protected];
But the link name will be coming from a page item (P12_DBLINK) populated as follows:
select db_link d, db_link r from user_db_links;
I have tried the following and it's not working:
DECLARE
l_link VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
l_link := :P12_DBLINK;
SELECT
CARD_ID
into
:P12_HDR_CARD_NUMBER
from     fusion.EXM_CC_COMPANY_ACCOUNTS@l_link;
this gives me:
ORA-04052: error occurred when looking up remote object FUSION.EXM_CC_COMPANY_ACCOUNTS@L_LINK.WORLD ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 3 ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found
I thought that maybe the link name was getting appended with .WORLD automatically but the link name already has .WORLD at the end. I tried stripping that off first but the error is the same.
Is there some synatx for this that will work for this? Will I need to use dynamic sql?
Any suggestions are most appreciated.
thanks,
john

Errors executing bulk query when updating a Sharepoint Linked List from Access

Hi all,
I have a Sharepoint list that is a Linked List with MS Access. It has just under 5,000 items (4,864), thus meaning it avoids the reduction in functionality lists of greater than 5,000 items have.
Among the list are five calculated columns. These take the information from another column (different employee numbers), and by using a formula produce a clickable link to my company's Directory page, where that particular employee's info is displayed. I'm
not sure if these five columns are relevant to my query, but I'm mentioning them in case.
My problem is this: Frequently when I run any query on the list that updates the list, I get this error: "There were errors executing the bulk query or sending the data to the server. Reconnect the tables to resolve the
conflicts or discard the pending changes".
When I review the errors, it says they conflict with errors a previous user made (with that previous user being me). It frequently highlights several columns, despite the info in them being identical, and the calculated columns (with the original showing
the value they contained and the new showing #VALUE! (as Access can't display the formulas).
However, if I click Retry All Changes, all the update stick and everything seems fine. Why is this happening? It's proving very annoying and is really stopping the automation of my large number of queries. A list of 5000 items isn't particular big (and they've
got roughly 100 columns, although I didn't think that was too large either, given Excel's 200+ column limit).
Is this due to poor query design and SQL? Is this due to connectivity issues (which I doubt, as my line seems perfect)? Is this due to Access tripping over itself and not executing the update on each row in the table, but rather executing them concurrently
and locking itself up? I'm at wit's end about it and really need to get this sorted.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi amartin903,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you used a linked list from Access.
The table that you are updating is a linked table that does not have a primary key or a unique index. Or, the query or the form is based on a linked table that does not have a primary key or a unique index. Please add the primary key or a unique index.
Here is a similar post, please take a look at:

I hope this helps.

Using hyper-links in a jsp pages that are in a Session

Hi i am trying to include a hyper-links in my jsp pages that are in a Session, however when i use the links to navigate throughout the pages i get a java.lang.NullPointerException. The Session begins after the user has been validated i.e
String cid= request.getParameter("counsellorID")
session.setAttribute("counsellorID",cid);
All the pages included within the session have a session scope=session
; and they call the attributes that have been set when the session first begins i.e
String counsID= (String) (session.getAttribute("counsellorID"));
Any advice on this problem would be most appreciated!
Many Thanks

Delay whilst using/dragging link tool

Hello, this is very annoying, I have an interactive .PDF document with small areas set aside for links to be inserted, when I select the link tool and click and drag (as per the help file "creating links using link tool") the link is created from the end drag point not where I started the drag, this is a...drag! And is very time consuming to then either re-do the link or I have to re-scale it and/or move it. I'm using Acrobat 3d version 8.
Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong? It is happening on my work colleges PC too (Acrobat 8 pro.)

Hi Eric,
You should probably ask this question on the regular User-to-User forum, as this forum is specifically for 3D issues. I have Acrobat 9 Pro Extended installed, but I can tell you that when I use the link tool, if I drag down and to the right, the upper left-hand corner of the resulting box is my start point, which is what I expect. If I drag down and to the left, the lower right-hand corner is where I started, as expected.

Encore constantly crashes using dynamic link....

Not sure what's going on here, but I just wanted to see if anyone knew what was going on. For some reason when I use dynamic link from Adobe Premiere to Encore it constantly crashes immediately.
The project is just over an hour long with loads of edits.
Thanks

DStrange,
Thanks for reporting that. It can solve some "DL crashes Encore" problems.
Rookie, a first step (which you may have done) is to see if Encore can be opened on its own, do basic functions (e.g. add a menu from the library etc). If yes, then look at whether it is only the one Premiere sequence, etc.
And, yes, try DStrange's solution. You don't have to add chapters to see if works. Chapters are one of the thinks that can cause issues, so a no-chapter version is a good troubleshooting step.
