• I would like to know the "best practices" for unplugging my computer permanently to the internet and other updates.

  Thank you for taking the time to read this. I would like to know the "best practices" for unplugging my computer permanently to the internet and other updates. I thought I would do a clean install of Windows XP, install my Microsoft Works again and nothing else. I would like to effectively transforming my computer into a word processor. He continues more and more slow. I get blue screen errors, once again. I received excellent Microsoft Support when it happened before, but since my computer is around 13 years, I think it is not worth the headache to try to remedy. I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, and my computer would not be able to upgrade. Please, can someone tell me how to make it only a word processor without updates or internet connection? (I already have a new computer with Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, it's the computer that I use. The old computer is just sitting there and once a week or so I updates.) I appreciate your time, thank you!

  Clean install XP sites
  You can choose which site to reinstall XP.

  Once it is installed, then you do not have to connect what anyone, however, some updates may be required to perform the work, test this by installing work and see if you get an error msg. Except that you should be fine.

• Select values from the db1 table and insert into the DB2 table

  Hello
  
  I have three databases oracle running in three different machines. their ip address is different. among the DB can access databases. (means am able to select values and insert values into tables individually.)
  
  I need to extract data from the DB1 table (ip say DB1 is 10.10.10.10 and the user is DB1user and the table is DB1user_table) and insert the values into DB2 table (say ip DB2 is 11.11.11.11 and the user is DB2user and table DB2user_table) of DB3 that is to have access to the two IPs DB.
  
  How do I do this
  
  Edited by: Aemunathan on February 10, 2010 23:12

  Depending on the amount of data must be moved between DB1 and DB2, and the frequency at which this should happen, you might consider the SQL * COPY more control. I think it's very useful for one-off tasks little, so I can live within its limits of the data type. More http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10823/apb.htm#i641251.

  Change some parameter of sqlplus session are almost mandatory in order to get decent transfer rates. Tuning ARRAYSIZE and COPYCOMMIT can make a huge difference in flow. LONG change may be necessary, too, depending on your data. The documentation offers these notes on use:

  To activate the copy of data between Oracle and databases non-Oracle, NUMBER of columns is replaced by DECIMAL columns in the destination table. Therefore, if you are copying between Oracle databases, a NUMBER column with no precision will become a DECIMAL column (38). When copying between Oracle databases, you must use SQL commands (CREATE TABLE AS and INSERTION), or you must make sure that your columns have a specified precision.

  SQL * the VALUE LONGER variable limits the length of the LONG column you are copying. If all LONG columns contain data exceeds the value of LONG, COPY truncates the data.

  SQL * Plus performs a validation at the end of each successful COPY. If you set the SQL * variable more COPYCOMMIT DEFINED to a value positive n, SQL * Plus performs a validation after copying all lots n of records. The SQL * Plus ARRAYSIZE variable SET determines the size of a batch.

  Some operating environments require that the service names be placed between double quotes.

  From a SQL * Plus term on DB3, can resemble the command to move all content from my_table in DB1 to the same table in DB2

  COPY from user1/pass1@DB1 to user2/pass2@DB2 -
  INSERT INTO my_table -
  USING select * from my_table
  

  Note the SQL code * more line-continuation character ' - '. It is used to escape the newline character in a SQL * Plus command if you do not have to type all on one line. I use it all the time with this command, but I can't locate the documentation on that right now. Maybe someone else can put their finger on it.

  There are other ways to accomplish what the command copy and it is not without its quirks and limitations, but I find that there is usefulness in an Oracle Toolbox.

• XML from the Oracle Table data

  Hi all
  
  I'm new to this network. I'm also new to oracle XML package. I want a help with the query below.
  
  CREATE TABLE EMP (ID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY, NAME VARCHAR2 (10), TELEPHONE NUMBER);
  
  INSERT INTO EMP (ID, NAME, PHONE) VALUES (11, 'Joy', 1234);
  INSERT INTO EMP (ID, NAME, PHONE) VALUES (22, 'Mike', 5678).
  INSERT INTO EMP (ID, NAME, PHONE) VALUES (33, "Jason", NULL);
  COMMIT;
  
  I want to export data from the EMP table in an XML file with the format below.
  
  Power required:
  
  <? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"? > < Joy STATICDATA > < EMP > < ID > 11 < /ID > < NAME > < / NAME > < / EMP > < / STATICDATA >
  <? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"? > < Mike STATICDATA > < EMP > < ID > 22 < /ID > < NAME > < / NAME > < / EMP > < / STATICDATA >
  <? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"? > < Jason STATICDATA > < EMP > < ID > 33 < /ID > < NAME > < / NAME > < / EMP > < / STATICDATA >
  
  I used some XML functions and you wrote the following query.
  
  Select XMLROOT (XMLELEMENT (staticdata, XMLELEMENT (EMP, XMLELEMENT(ID,ID), XMLELEMENT(NAME,NAME))), version "1.0" encoding = "UTF - 8') xml EMP;

  But I want the out as the power required above. all records in a single line. can someone help me achieve the desired output. also can I export all columns of the table with something like select * from the table in the XML file?
  
  Thank you
  Delobelle

  Don't know why you need it on a single line, but you could:

  Select XMLTYPE (REGEXP_REPLACE (XMLROOT (XMLELEMENT (staticdata, XMLELEMENT (EMP, XMLELEMENT(ID,ID), XMLELEMENT(NAME,NAME))), version "1.0" encoding = "UTF - 8'), CHR (10) |)) ' *<><'))>

• Best practices for automation of ghettoVCBg2 starting from cron

  Hello world!

  I set up an instance of vma for scheduling backups with ghettoVCBg2 in a SIN store. Everything works like a charm from the command line, I use vi fastpass for authentication, backups complete very well.

  However, I would like to invade the cron script and got stuck. Since vifp is designed to run only command line and as I read not supposed to work from a script, it seems that the only possibility would be to create a backup user dedicated with administrator privileges and store the user and pass in the shell script. I'm not happy to do so. I searched through the forums but couldn't ' find any simple solution.

  any IDE for best practices?

  Thank you

  eliott100

  In fact, incorrect. The script relies on the fact that the host ESX or ESXi are led by vi-fastpass... but when you run the script, it does not use vifpinit command to connect. It access credentials via the modules of vi-fastpass which don't vifpinit library but as you have noticed, you cannot run this utility in off-line mode. Therefore, it can be scheduled via cron, basically, but you must run the script interactively, just set up in your crontab. Please take a look at the documentation for more information

• Retrieve a single value from a file .lvm

  I have a large batch of files of worksheet whose name is a timestamp. I am writing a program that will get the value of a specific cell (the same cell in each file), coupled with the timestamp and each of them as a pair of coordinates, then save in a master spreadsheet. The goal is to extract a point each of the 700 files I and compile them into a single file.

  However, I've never used Labview to read the files before. I saw some stuff on how to read an entire worksheet in a table, but I was wondering if there was a way to say to Labview to look into a file and extract a single value. I open .lvm in Excel files, so, in my mind, I would be taking, for example, cell D2. Is this feasible? Should I read the entire worksheet in an array and use the index to pick it up on the table? If I do, how I would specify cell J2 as an array index (I have no experience with the berries in Labview either). In addition, if you have any tips on how to record easily 700 pairs of coordinates, that came together in the order, to a single spreadsheet, that is my next task.

  Essentially- I need to extract a single value of a spreadsheet in, ideally, the simplest possible. In addition, pointers on how to save the numbers gathered at each iteration of a while loop to a single worksheet are welcome.

  Thanks in advance for the help!

  FYI I have LabView v8.6

  You can't say LabVIEW to 'out' a specific 'cell' more you can tell Notepad to do. the .lvm files are just text files. When you open them in Excel, the column separator (default tabs) show to put the values in columns. In LabVIEW measurement file VI reading to read .lvm files. It creates the dynamic data, wrong data type that is next to useless. You will need to convert this type of data in a table by using the function convert of DDT. Or, you can use the VI read spreadsheet file. This will give you a table directly. You can just remove the specific item using the table to Index.

• Support for mandatory request - insert, select from the same table

  Hi all
  
  I need your help to write queries effectively.
  Oracle Version: 10.2.0.3.0
  OPERATING SYSTEM: UNIX
  
  I have a METRICS_TBL that is mentioned below table.
  
  CYCLE_DATE METRIC VALUE
  08/17/2008 COST-TV 100
  08/17/2008 COST-JOURNAL 50
  08/17/2008 COST-POSTALMAIL 25

  08/17/2008-PROD-JOURNAL 25
  08/17/2008-PROD-POSTALMAIL 5
  
  Any data above, I have to add (Insert into select METRICS_TBL METRICS_TBL) at the same table with the records as mentioned below.
  
  2008-08-17 COSTPERPROD-TV 10
  08/17/2008-COSTPERPROD-LOG 2
  2008-08-17 COST PROD-POSTALMAIL 5
  
  Basically, I need to calculate the cost per product for each category. Depending on the settings available, metric should also be changed as COSTPERPROD and values should be cost/prod under each category.
  
  Can someone help me with the query.
  
  Thank you

  Something like this:

  INSERT INTO metrics_tbl
  (cycle_date, metrics, value)
  SELECT cost.cycle_date
           , 'COSTPERPROD-'||cost.mtype
           ,cost.value / prod.value
  FROM  (
     select cycle_date,substr(metrics, 1, 4) mtype, substrmetrics,instr(metrics,'-')+1) mmetric
     where substr(metrics, 1, 4) = 'PROD'
     ) prod
  INNER JOIN (   select cycle_date,substr(metrics, 1, 4) mtype, substrmetrics,instr(metrics,'-')+1) mmetric
     where substr(metrics, 1, 4) = 'COST'
     ) cost on cost.cycle_date = prod.cycle_date and cost.mmetric = prod.mmetric
  

  Ideally you would divide your METRICS column into two: one for the thing you're measuring (e.g. TV or NEWSPAPER) and the other for the metric (COST, PROD, COSTPERPROD etc.). That's what I did in the views online. Without it, it's kinda a mess and behave so, if the table becomes much more.

  I'm not able to generate the XML file. Kindly help me.
  
  Kind regards
  Sudhanshu

  I love working at the deepest level and then "wrap" with external level tags.

  You want to list all columns of each LINE by line. XMLFOREST is good for this:

  select xmlforest(
    expense_info, expense_date, expense_code, expense_ref,
    gross_amount, tax_amount, error_code, reason_of_failure
  )
  from line;
  
  A
  2012-12-14
  ABC
  HOTEL
  100
  500
  0
  SUCCESS
  ...
  

  Now you want to wrap this up in EXPENSE_LINE_REC

  select xmlelement("EXPENSE_LINE_REC",
    xmlforest(
      expense_info, expense_date, expense_code, expense_ref,
      gross_amount, tax_amount, error_code, reason_of_failure
    )
  )
  from line;
  
  
    A
    2012-12-14
    ABC
    HOTEL
    100
    500
    0
    SUCCESS
  
  

  So far, you have a XML fragment by line in the table of the LINE. You can use XMLAGG to put those together in a single fragment - or rather, a fragment by EXPENSE_INFO.

  Then you use XMLELEMENT again to give the name "EXPENSE_LINES" in this fragment.

  Then you gather the header values and the 'EXPENSE_LINES' fragment in "EXPENSE_DETAILS". This gives you all the information for each row header and associated lines of the LINE.

  Then, you gather all the information into one with XMLAGG header, and give everything a name with XMLELEMENT

  select xmlelement("EXPENSES",
    xmlagg(
      xmlelement("EXPENSE_DETAILS",
        xmlforest(expense_info, a.error_code, a.reason_of_failure),
        xmlelement("EXPENSE_LINES",
          xmlagg(
            xmlelement("EXPENSE_LINE_REC",
              xmlforest(
                b.expense_date, b.expense_code, b.expense_ref,
                b.gross_amount, b.tax_amount, b.error_code, b.reason_of_failure
              )
            )
          )
        )
      )
    )
  )
  from header a join line b using(expense_info)
  group by expense_info, a.error_code, a.reason_of_failure;
  

  _Note: _ with the GROUP BY clause, you can 'total' twice, once at the expense_info level and then overall. That's what I do with the two XMLAGGs: the second he puts just all the different stuff EXPENSE_DETAILS together in one package that I wrap "CHARGES" tag autour.

  Also, I omit EXPENSE_INFO of each LINE as it is already in the header information.

  I hope that answers your question.

  If this isn't the case, please post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements), and the results you want from this data.

  In the case of a DML operation (for example, REMOVE) the sample data should show what look like the paintings before the DML, and results will be the content of the or the tables changed after the DML.

  Explain, using specific examples, how you get these results from these data.

  Always say what version of Oracle you are using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).

• Best practices for connecting to a database from a Web service

  I develop Web services that need to connect to an Oracle database. Currently, I connect to the database using jdbc as this class:

  con = DriverManager.getConnection (connectURL, "HR_DATA_READERS", "xxxxx").

  I do not like this approach because it hardcodes the connection string and account information. One of our colleagues has suggested that we use the properties file, but this leaves the user name and password in full view. Given that we can define jdbc dataources on the server of the SOA and the server offers all the nice features like pooled connection etc, is there a way to connect to the database using the data source defined the SOA rather than defining a connection server jdbc in the Web service itself? Is the best way to do it or is there still a way paste?

  Thank you

  Hi, Alix,.

  If you are JEE compatible environment. i.e. WLS 12 c, you can use resource injection approach, instead of manually coding the above proposed DS research.

  More information on injected resources and you will find here - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19226-01/820-7627/6nisfjmbl/index.html

  "For example, you can use this tutorial - Servlet JDBC DataSource resource Injection" Open tutorials

  Take a look at sections 5.3 and 5.4 only, which is what the code should look like and how to configure resource in the web.xml file.

  And always use finally to try to close the db connection, otherwise in the case of exceptions, as it is not returned to the pool and at some point he's going to get exhausted.

  Hope this helps,

• Best practices for creating a new project from an existing WebHelp

  I am currently working to WebHelp Pro (version RH is 9.0.2.271).

  I have a WebHelp project that currently supports the 2012 version of one of our projects. What I had to do was to create a separate project for 2013, using files of 2012 as a starting point. I couldn't find a way in HR to create a new project by importing an existing project of WebHelp, so I copied the files of 2012 in a new directory, open the project and renamed it.

  What drives this issue is that, as a result of this exercise, all seemed well, for once. However, I recently had to create new topics in the 2012 version. However, when I imported these subjects to the 2013 and compiled project, they disappeared - even if the htm files still appear in the appropriate folder of the file 2013 (when we look at with Windows Explorer).

  After reading a few posts on the forum, I thought I might have corrupted my database by creating the incorrectly the new project-, but if what I've done, it's the wrong way to go about this, I don't know what is the right way. I will be grateful for any suggestion.

  The easy way to do this is to create a copy using Windows Explorer.

  Open the project and click file > rename.

  Then you have your project is ready in 2013.

• Best practices for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?

  Anyone know the best practice for Smartview during the upgrade from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?
  
  
  Current users have Microsoft Excel 2003 with Smartview 9.3.1.2.1.003.
  
  Computers are upgraded to Microsoft Excel 2007.
  
  
  What is the best practice for Smartview in this situation?
  
  1. do nothing with Smartview and just install Excel 2007.
  
  2. install Excel 2007 and then uninstall and reinstall Smartview
  
  3 uninstall Smartview, Excel 2007 installation and then install Smartview
  
  4 something else?
  
  
  Thank you!

  We went with option 1 and it worked very well. Be aware that OAS Treaty substantially slower in Excel 2007 to 2003. Many users have been/is unhappy about the switch. We have not tested SV v11 yet, so I don't know if it has improved performance with Excel 2007 or not (hopefully it does).

• Best practices for color use in Adobe CC?

  Hi all

  Is there an article that describes the best practices for use of color in Adobe CC?

  I produce a mixture of viewing online (PDF, for the most part) and real world print projects - often with the obligation for both. I recently updated my PANTONE + bridge books for the first time in ages and I am suddenly confused by the use of Lab colors in the Adobe Suite (Illustrator and InDesign).

  Everything I found online, looks like Lab color mode preferred to use because it is device independent. And perceptual (on screen), it looks much closer to the color, it is trying to represent. But when I mark a Spot color Illustrator rectangle using laboratory coordinates, to the sides of a rectangle using PANTONE + bridge CP and then export it to PDF, the version of CP to mix CMYK color corresponds exactly to my Pantone book - while the version of laboratory (after converted to CMYK using the ink Manager) is far away.

  I have this fantasy to manage only a single Illustrator or InDesign file for both worlds (PDF) printed and online. Is not possible in practice?

  Any info describing the basic definitions of the color modes - or even a book tracing more than use them in the real world - would be much appreciated!

  Thank you

  Bob

  Here are a few best practices you can already do.

  1 make sure that your color settings are synchronized on all applications.

  2. use a CMYK profile appropriate for your print output. Lab spot colors convert to CMYK values based on the CMYK icc profile.

  3. include icc profiles when save or export pdf files

  In theory, your imagination is possible today. It requires color management and the use of icc profiles. You can place RGB images in InDesign and use Pantone colors in your objects. The problem lies in the printers. If a printer uses a RIP with built in Pantone library, the colors will match when printing. Unfortunately, this kind of CUT is more expensive and not enough printers use them. Most of them is always manually approximate CMYK values composition given Pantone colors.
