  I'm in the most recent update to LR CC. My tools are acting funky. The button "done" when the adjustment tool is open is missing and is editing with the Red overlay and not showing me the effect. I'm failr again to the present. Any help for a beginner?

  Try to press T to activate the toolbar. Maybe the toolbar is disabled and that's why you don't see the Finish button.

• Additional help for a SQL statement.

  I am needing help with a query related to one I got the help of yesterday. In this case, I have a table tasks are assigned to a task owner. Each task has an opening and a closing date - in some cases, tasks, closing date is null because the task is not yet complete.
  
  I am running Oracle Database 10 g Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64 bit Production.
  
  It is an example of the data available in my table.

  CREATE TABLE     table_x
  (       owner_nm       VARCHAR2 (10)
  ,       task_nm        VARCHAR2 (10)
  ,       open_dt        DATE
  ,       closed_dt      DATE
  );
  
  INSERT INTO table_x (owner_nm, task_nm, open_dt, closed_dt) VALUES ('Curly', 'task b', DATE '2010-04-18', DATE '2010-10-14');
  INSERT INTO table_x (owner_nm, task_nm, open_dt, closed_dt) VALUES ('Moe',   'task a', DATE '2010-01-01', DATE '2010-12-01');
  INSERT INTO table_x (owner_nm, task_nm, open_dt, closed_dt) VALUES ('Moe',   'task c', DATE '2010-10-31', DATE '2011-01-01');
  INSERT INTO table_x (owner_nm, task_nm, open_dt, closed_dt) VALUES ('Moe',   'task e', DATE '2010-12-01', DATE '2011-02-21');
  INSERT INTO table_x (owner_nm, task_nm, open_dt, closed_dt) VALUES ('Larry', 'task d', DATE '2010-11-01', DATE NULL);

  I'm looking for the result set is a table that displays the total number of jobs open for each owner over time. If a task is not yet completed, the task should show as active all the way up to the date on which the query is executed. For example, if I run the query today, any task that has a null closed_dt value would be in the open_dt up to the current date.
  
  Here is an example of how I need to see my data in the above table.

  OWNER_NM    YEAR JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC
  ---------- ----- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
  Curly       2010   0   0   0   1   1   1   1   1   1   1   0   0
  Larry       2011   1   1   1   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0
  Larry       2010   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   1   1
  Moe         2011   2   1   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0
  Moe         2010   1   1   1   1   1   1   1   1   1   2   2   3

  It is so close, but I need to make two changes to the addititional I've not been able to understand. (1) I can not understand how to summarize the months which overlap that occur in my data. (2) I have not been able to find a way consider the records containing nulls in the closed_dt field - in this case, I need them to count up to the current date.
  
  Thanks in advance for your time and your insight into this problem.

  Hi, David,.

  As John said, you will need to use NVL (or COALESCE) assimilate closed_dts NULL with SYSDATE.
  Aside from that, all you have to do is to use the SUM (rather than MAX) by rotating the data in the main query:

  WITH     got_month_cnt          AS
  (
       SELECT  owner_nm
       ,     TRUNC (open_dt, 'MONTH')     AS first_month
       ,     1 + MONTHS_BETWEEN ( TRUNC (NVL ( closed_dt          -- Changed (3 lines)
                                            , SYSDATE
                                )    , 'MONTH')
                           , TRUNC (open_dt,   'MONTH')
                         )          AS month_cnt
       FROM    table_x
         WHERE owner_nm in ('Curly', 'Moe', 'Larry')
  )
  ,     cntr     AS
  (
       SELECT     LEVEL     AS n
       FROM     (
                 SELECT  MAX (month_cnt)     AS max_month_cnt
                 FROM     got_month_cnt
            )
       CONNECT BY     LEVEL     <= max_month_cnt
  )
  ,     all_months     AS
  (
       SELECT     m.owner_nm
       ,     ADD_MONTHS ( m.first_month
                    , c.n - 1
                    )          AS open_month
       FROM     got_month_cnt     m
       JOIN     cntr          c  ON     c.n     <= m.month_cnt
  )
  SELECT       owner_nm
  ,       EXTRACT (YEAR FROM open_month)                         AS year
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Jan' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS jan     -- Changed (12 lines)
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Feb' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS feb
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Mar' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS mar
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Apr' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS apr
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'May' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS may
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Jun' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS jun
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Jul' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS jul
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Aug' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS aug
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Sep' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS sep
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Oct' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS oct
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Nov' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS nov
  ,       SUM (CASE WHEN TO_CHAR (open_month, 'Mon') = 'Dec' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)     AS dec
  FROM       all_months
  GROUP BY  owner_nm
  ,       EXTRACT (YEAR FROM open_month)
  ORDER BY  owner_nm
  ,            year     DESC
  --,          year          -- No point in repeating the same column
  ;
  

  In the sample data, you must meant:

  INSERT INTO table_x (owner_nm, task_nm, open_dt, closed_dt) VALUES ('Larry', 'task d', DATE '2010-11-01',  NULL);
  

  You can INSERT NULL in any column type: DATE, VARCHAR2, NUMBER or anything else. You don't have to distinguish the DATEs NULL NULL numbers.

  Hello

  1. don't you also get an error with the message code?
  2 have you installed third-party readers part?
  3. What is the format of the files you are trying to play?

  Follow these steps and check if they help.

  Step 1:

  I would have you readers of third party temporarily Uninstall and check if persists it to the question.

  Step 2:

  Most likely you need codecs to play these files with Windows Media Player. I suggest looking up codec in the Internet that supports the file format, download and install them.

• where can I get additional icons for my files and folders in xp

  I need additional icons for my files and folders on windows xp is there a site where I can download for free and instantly put them in the folder icon

  Hi Robert,.

  I see that you want additional icons for files and folders in xp. I'll help you with this problem.

  1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  2. what security software is installed on the computer?

  3. what icons are you looking for?

  I suggest using your favorite search engine and look for all Web sites for free icons. You can download the icons based on the category and the icon you want. If you have downloaded a package of any icon, click on the downloaded zip file. The file will unpack once you click on it and reveal the subfolders as 'PNG' "ICO" or "Readme." Click the folder for the ICO to reveal the different icons in the package. Click on one of the icons to see what it looks like.

  To make a shortcut to a folder and change the look of the shortcut icon:

  1 - Open my computer and locate the folder you want.

  2-click right on the folder and then click create a shortcut. If you are prompted to place the shortcut on the desktop, click Yes.

  3-click right on the shortcut you created, click Properties, and then click change icon.

  4 - Click on the picture of the icon you want the shortcut to use, click OK, and then click OK.

  How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Can you suggest a host for a beginner using dreamweaver?

  Hello!  I am a total web construction beginner so please be nice :-)  I built most of my site using dreamweaver, but I have problems to get in touch with technical support to my chosen host (lunar pages).  Supposedly they offer 24/7 support, but it took me about 10 hours to talk to someone after three calls waiting for 30 minutes each, but also to present a ticket online.  Before going further I think cancellation of my payment by credit card with them and from new with a new domain on a new host to avoid dealing with DNS transfer.  Anyone has a suggestion for a good host for a beginner by downloading a dreamweaver site?  I'm looking for a host who will have an easy learning curve (because I'm new), uses cpanel, has a quick and quality technical support and supports PHP and MySQL.  I want a legitimate company with no BS.  Of course, price is a factor, but I'm willing to pay more if the quality of the company is worthy of it.   I work on a mac, if it's at all important.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated as it was difficult for me to assess through searches random review hosting companies.

• Need help for a multiline ComboBox...

  Hello

  I'm new to Flash, and I need help. I am trying to create a multiline combobox, but I can't seem to have a bit of luck. I looked for possible answers, and most of them points to the cell rendering engine. Whenever I try to use it, I have several errors. That's what I try to do: http://www.wikihow.com/Create-Interactive-Multiple-Choice-Quiz-in-Adobe-Flash-Cs4

  The only difference is that I need multiline instead of simple lines. Is it possible that a perfect beginner could do this?

  not really.  You must create a custom cellrenderer class and, I don't think it's easy for a beginner.
