Why condition does not work.

Hi Pros,
in my bex query, there is a CKF OT hours, having a value 30.000, when I set a condition for 'OT hours = 30.000', but get no result out. could you please tell why condition does not work.

HI,
please check the "Characteristic Assignment" Tab in change condition window.
In that tab default selection as "All Characteristic in the drill down independently" change that selection as "Individual characteristic and Char. combinations" and choose the particular characteristic. for ex OT hours against employee means select employee alone.

I don't think there is anything we can do on a user to user forum. I suggest you report this to Adobe as a bug. Please follow this link.

Why it does not work as Hyperterminal?

I use Hyperterminal & setup:
COM3, Baudrate = 115200, 8 bit, 1 Stop Bit, Parity = None, Flow = None
When I type the "*debug" & hit 'Enter' key in the Hyperterminal, it received & showed a lot of Ascii text continously on the dialog (then I close the Hyperterminal)
But when I tried to the same with my vi (please see the attachment), when run the InQ & the Read String dialog box show nothing return!
- I did use the NI Measurement & Automation Explorer to config the COM3 with 115200 successfully (just make sure NI driver can see it)
- Even I change "*debug" or "*debug\r" or "*debug\n" or "*debug\r\n" it still does not work!
Can anyone know why?
Thank for any help

Remember that if you are going to use '\' codes your text control must be in the right mode. Right click on the control and select '\' code display. If not you will only send \n as two normal ascii char. \n is most often the correct term char
Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

Flash player does not work on Non Admin accounts

I have 2 citrix servers running Windows Server 2k3. Flash
installs and plays fine as the administrator, but once logged in as
a regular user. Flash does not work. I have set the security
permissions for the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash folder so
that non admin users can modify and write to the folder. That did
not work, flash asks to install, but when you click ok, it becomes
a red X. Any ideas?

Hi all,
Please see the following article that may address this issue:
http://www.adobe.com/go/624850b5
“After successful installation under the Windows
Administrator account, Restricted User accounts are unable to
display Flash Player content.”
This issue is never encountered with a new install of
Windows. It is sometimes encountered with older images and it is
strictly an issue with the ActiveX installer not for plug-ins.
Please reply to this thread with your results. If the
registry fix mentioned on this article helps, we will update the
document to reflect that it is still an issue.

Cisco Aironet FW 15.2 Does not work with Non-Cisco Media Bridges

I have a Cisco Aironet 1142i that was just updated from 12.4(23c)JY to 15.2(4)JA1 (don’t think model matters as the issue seem to be the firmware) and now I cannot get my media bridges (3 different ones) to either connect to the 1142 AP or obtain and pass the DHCP addresses to other device connected to the built in switch. If I reload the 1142 AP firmware to 12.4, than this works fine. I have not seen anything in the release notes that changed how this works or if there is I could not find it.
Does anyone know why this changed and if there is any settings that I need to enabled / disable?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

More info to add to this.
AIR-AP1142N-A-K9 Hardware Version of v06 works with firmware 15.2.
AIR-AP1142N-A-K9 Hardware Version v05 does not work with firmware 15.2, but will when downgraded to firmware 12.4.
I'm also having this issue with Cisco Aironet 3602 Fw 15.2(2)JB and 3502 Fw 15.2(2)JB$ that's on a Cisco 2500 WLAN Controller Sw Ver. 7.4.100.0.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

Why this does not works??? (I use jsp: include. to contain two jsp files)

I have a main.jsp, and in this main.jsp, I have two part, leftButton.jsp and view.jsp, I want to include the leftButton.jsp and view.jsp to main.jsp.
The code of main.jsp is like follows:
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>JSP include element test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td><jsp: include page="leftButton.jsp" flush="true"></jsp: include></td>
                         <td>     <jsp: include page="view.jsp" flush="true"></jsp: include></td>
                    </tr>
     </table>
</body>
</html>
Why the include does not works? by the way, I embeded a flash.swf file in view.jsp.

Hi Mellon,
You might be better off using a JSPF segment for leftButton.jsp & view.jsp and the <%@ include file="relativeURL" %>.
Be careful that the included file does not contain <html>, </html>, <body>, or </body> tags. Because the entire content of the included file is added to the including JSP page, these tags would conflict with the same tags in the including JSP page, causing an error.
Note: It is conventional to put JSP segements under the WEB-INF/jspf/ folder so the file cannot be accessed directly by a URL
Note: JSPF files end with .jspf, so your files would be leftButton.jspf and view.jspf.

I need to align my SWF file to right side. In HTML code I m

Thank you for your help, but it is not what I need.

Why listeners does not work?

I have the problem with starting sqlplus session.
I have created database mybase.
When I start listener with command:
lsnrctl startand then I try to log into ma database with the command:
sqlplus SYSTEM/MYPASSWORD@mybaseit does not work, although the listeners claims it's OK.
BUT
if the listener the application 'dbca' is started and I choose in it to modify my database without any changes (I suppose it just raises the oracle engine up),
then every think works fine.
Could anyone help me with the problem? How to work without the calling 'dbca' each time?
Thank you.
Waldemar

It is an error! It should be added BEFORE:
...BUT
if BEFORE the listener the application 'dbca' is started ...

Hi everybody,
I am using SBO SP1 PL16 and I have problems with Update in Default Form.
1. I create a Master Data Table and a Lines Master Data Table
2. I create an UDO using Default Form
3. When I test it I get the following behavior:
a) When I add master data an lines at the same time, there is no problem.
b) When I update any data in master or lines, I press Update Button and the message "successfully" is displayed but automatically it gets the old information
c) I tried to find the right information in the table but it was not saved.
Anyone has the same problem?

Why this does not work?

Hi all,
I got a very basic question. Why does not the constructor not_a_public() get called in the code below?
class not_public
     public static void main(String[] args)
          System.out.println("Hello World!");
          not_a_public nap = new not_a_public();
class not_a_public
void not_a_public() {
          System.out.println("Not a public!!!");
Regards
Aditya

Because that's not a constructor. Constructors can't have a return type. Remove the void and it will work. You also need to make one of the classes public.
package sandbox;
public class not_public {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
        not_a_public nap = new not_a_public();
class not_a_public {
    not_a_public() {
        System.out.println("Not a public!!!");
}
