Data merge problem - HELP Please!
To say that I'm new to data fusion would be a VAST understatement...
I'm trying to merge the names of the companies of CSV in InDesign, but the apostrophes in names come through as to the strange time characters when I spotted and merge the document. Does anyone have a solution? I am desperate at this point.
Thank you!
Work may be on a Mac with a CSV file generated by a user of Excel on Windows?
By connecting your CSV, look for the 'Show Import Options' button. There you can select your delimiter (usually a comma, right?) and your platform and Encoding. If my above assumption is correct, then you will want to set it to ASCII and PC , but if it's another arrangement, you must find the right platform and encoding by trial and error, or understand the source encoding and the platform of the CSV in other ways.

Data merge problem - bad values when exporting PDF with "All folders" only
Hi - I have the weirdest problem with InDesign: I use merge data from .csv to create a deck of cards (9 per page), and when I export to PDF from the data merge Panel, one of my field has erroneous data: it uses values from previous records and which repeat.
What is strange, is that when the noticed, all right. Is also very good if I create a merged Document and PDF export. Is also very good if I export to PDF using just the range of entries it is play: I don't get that wrong data if export as PDF, "All records" in the data merge Panel. Very frustrating!
Someone saw? I feel that my data is ok, if the export of individual records is very well...
Cheers for any help.
Thank you! Which has me on the path to what looks like a fix...
Copy all the fields in a new file does not solve the problem - the same behavior, but after the start of charges, I started to adjust the sizes of the fields and stumbled upon a possible solution.
A field that trouble is a text box for a single digit, if limits are quite small. The name of the field for example placeholder.
> is bigger and complained of cut-off text. Increase the limits of the text box to be at least the size of the reliable placeholder text solves the problem. It decreases the size of a single digit... back of the problem. How weird.
Thanks Peter.

Generate report with a date picker. Help, please
Hello
I'm building an interactive report which should display the records corresponding to the date picker.
I'm going to pull a report emp_name and LOAD_DT. LOAD_DT is a date column from table1.
Select "emp_name," LOAD_DT from table1
where LOAD_DT =: P44_PICK_A_DATE;
I chose article page to submit P44_PICK_A_DATE
When I choose a date, he gives no error data
Help, please.
Thank you
KJ
Bind variable in the APEX will behave as strings. I normally apply TO_DATE(:P1_MY_DATE) without the date format and rely on application session formats / align.
In your case, it would be more efficient to
where load_date = to_date(:P44_PICK_A_DATE)
unless you do something specific with date formats, then you would be just details the to_date
Keep in mind, this also applies to the numbers, it would be more explicit
where id = to_number(:P1_ID)
Which is related to why there is a function v() and nv().

Import and copy from one catalog to another has some problems-help please
Hi people,
I have two catologs on two different disks. I imported a number of raw images from one to another using the copy. He did also copy xmp files, but most of the images do not appear to have been developed. I did something wrong? Is this a new stage so these images acknowledge the work accomplished since the xmp file?
Second, the virtual copies have been copied not more as well. They are in the first catalog, but not when I imported and copied.
Help please while I can still understand what images I imported because they are in every sense, and maybe I need to recreate my steps.
Lightroom 3 more up-to-date, Windows XP.
Thank you.
~ Bob
Bob,
You import or catalog? You need to do the latter.
If you are importing a catalog, remove the images that you have brought to and use the above menu option.

I have successfully used the merging of data for
throw or placed tmy text - placeholders on the master page, then geretated pages. Now, do report anotehr, I wanted to use
the old man a tempalte and just change that data - no matter WHA tI - I get the error
"Tehre is at least a placeholder data which may not be foudnin the data source. "Make sure that any placeholders correspond ot the fields in the data source.
Which is not true - because the dat merger panel shows all the field names in the CSV file - and I get this error as soon as I place a single field - on the master - check the preview area and the error message coems. I tried placoing on the page of document but no difference.
My solution was ot find a last tiem form Gall who did not have the dat a fusion inside and to use - however - I ran out of old files with no dat a merger. It almost seems as if once that you do a fusion of data in the file, even if not saved, it somehow it keeps and dwells on.
I have treid registering as an inx and do in CS3 - but got the same error.
I went on all loose on the page, one by one - using the story editor to see if there was soemthing bad in the file - found nothing
Here is a link ot the file and the data source

any help is greatly appreciated - I'm stumped

Sorry, you're right... it's a variable.
As near as I can tell, the document is damaged, but it seems that if it can be saved. Make a new A4 doc and rename A template z then it won't replace your master when you bring.
Now put the two visible documents at the same time and select all of the master pages in the original and drag them from the Pages panel and drop them on the new RFSO. Select document pages, then do the same thing, adding them after page 1. Page 1 to remove and reset the numbering.

Playlist problems HELP Please!
Hello! First post here and unfortunately, its about some problems.
I'm having problems with plalists and don't know how to fix. Okay, I create the playlist in Nero M3U format, encode files
off a CD to MP3 and then using Wexplore, copy them into the Clip. The playlist is in the Playlist folder and MP3s
in the folder of songs. OK, it sorta well worked during the first three playlists. Herer are now the problems:
1. when I try to play a playlist in the playlist folder, it shows the playlist in a vacuum. The playlist appears however
in the Albums folder and the first three have played fine from there.
2. ok, the fourth one that I've added shows in the unknown album for a title folder. He plays very well however songs.
He appears in the playlist as unknown and 'empty' folder when I try to play from there.
3. the fifth one I added does not appear in the Albums folder at all (the only place I can play any of the playlists).
It appears in the playlist folder, but appears as empty when I try to play.
I used the exact same design and copy for each method and of course make me different results. All the songs
I copied to see the place of songs and play very well. The playlist feature is not very reliable at this point.
If anyone has experienced this problem and have a solution, please let me know. I enjoy my video, when it acts right.
I just properly finish loading all my music and playlists so I can listen to my favorite things when I practice my golf
Swing on the driving range.
Thank you people!
Did last night and got the problem solved using WMP. Thanks for your expert advice :-)!

Internet connection problem help please
When I try to connect to the Internet it will not and when I click to troubleshoot the convenience store does not open. Also through cmd, I used fig icon and everything saying media disconnected
You have McAfee? The problem is only recently emerged? McAfee has been updated at the same time as the last batch of updates from Windows 7 and it seems to be the cause of this problem for most, if not all, users.
See the communication from this "criticism" - McAfee
You should make the fix McAfee, if necessary. There are corresponding communications for their enterprise products.
I got McAfee, but the connection has started working again on its own so I thought I was clear of problems. However, when I checked it says he was doing routine checks the updates in vain when I told it to do a manually. So stick with McAfee you don't follow their procedure of fix would have upgraded my PC at risk by not updated and, as other listings of McAfee said since then, the application did not refer to his database of threats correctly. Actually, I removed and then installed Microsoft Security Essentials rather & my answer IE is faster I knew it [even though I had the Add-ons McAfee disabled for centuries].
I had to run the removal of McAfee Development tool a few times before and it caused a problem with the license if the PC was not connected to the internet during the abduction. Due cat of McAfee support reset their files in order to allow the relocation-reactivation. Here is their link cat - McAfee - media contains the link to the cat

If you do not have McAfee then Windows update than kb2705219 can also be a cause as the uninstall that appeared to solve the problem for some users [but I'm not particularly convinced by this]. To uninstall an update - control panel, programs & features, [left side of the window] see installed updates. Wait until the system has finished the research for the list of updates. Select update required, then right click and Uninstall.

Adobe Acrobat 2.0 problem - help please!
I had Adobe Acrobat Standard 2.0 works well for years (and it is quite appropriate for what I need for) until about 2 weeks ago, when it stopped. My OS is Windows 7. I uninstalled the software and reinstalled several times without result. When you create a pdf from a Word (my usual task with Acrobat) document, it starts the process and then reached a point where it freezes, and eventually I have to close the program. The progress window "Adobe PDFMaker" reached a point where it says: "convert to Adobe PDF...". "and then freezes. All advice and help to solve very much appreciated! Thank you, John
If you have Windows 7 Pro or better you can try to use XP mode (assuming that you can always get it to Download Windows XP Mode from the official Microsoft Download Center ).
For more information on the installation of Acrobat 7, see: error "Activation of server" unavailable in Adobe CS2, Acrobat 7 and hearing 3
