Empty fields in the data merge is originally from empty lines will appear. CS4

I had this problem when I ask myself on my data merge info I origionally put phone and mobile phone on the same line which resaulted in the cell phone number split in two, as the column was not wide enough to display both side by side. I then moved the cell phone up to the next line but the problem number, then I had was that this would leave an empty line whenever I could meet someone who has not had a cell phone number. Anyone know how I can reduce this empty line when the phone line is empty?

See your other thread where you have asked about it.

  • Limitations of the data merge?

    10.8.3 - CS5 OS

    I've been using merge data for simple tasks, but now I ran into problems.

    I have about 100 records and about 22 colums for each.

    I'm trying to create a single page for each item.

    The labels come in fine in data merge window, but as I try to create a merged document I get the message:

    "There are at least a placeholder data which is not found in the data source. Make sure that any placeholders correspond to the fields in the data source. »

    And the placeholders do match fields.

    The content of each record consists of the text of approximately 1000 characters run - it no go?

    Your text running there line breaks? Data merge cannot handle line breaks in a field, but the result is usually blurred out, although it could well generate the error that you have a field with no field in the data file.

    Hello

    I suspect it's because of the construction in default length of character in sqldr data types - char (255) must take no notice of what the definition of the current table is by default.

    Try adding CHAR (2000), to your controlfile so you end up with something like this:

    OPTIONS (SKIP = 2)

    DOWNLOAD THE DATA

    the problem is bounded by default, char (255) data... Very useful, I know...

    you need two, IE sqlldr Hat data is longer than this.

    When I try to load a text file data using sqlldr, I get the following errors on some files that do not charge.

    Example:
    =======
    Sheet 1: Rejected - error on the NTWKREP table. CARD, column REALIZES.
    Field in the data file exceeds the maximum length

    Looking at the actual data and count the characters for the data of the "CONSCIOUS" column, I see that it is basically a little more of 1000 characters.

    So try various ideas to solve the problem, I tried to change to "tank" nls_length_semantics and re-create the table, but this does not always helped and always got the same errors of loading data on the same lines.


    Then, I changed back to byte nls_length_semantics and recreated the table again.
    This time, I have changed the table manually as:
    SQL> ALTER TABLE ntwkrep.CARD MODIFY (REALIZES VARCHAR2(4000 char));
    
    Table altered.
    
    SQL> desc ntwkrep.card
     Name                                                              Null?    Type

     STATUS                                                                     VARCHAR2(255)
     LASTMODIFIED                                                               DATE
    Yet once, loading data failed with the same error on the same lines.

    So, this time, I thought that I would try to change the data type of column in a clob (navigation), and again, it is still impossible to load on the same lines.

  • 9.2 CC InDesign crashes when you open the data merge Panel

    I have a document that is in a book (for multiple files) with cross-references to other documents in the book. I also almost all of the content in an inCopy assignment in order to manage in multiple versions/layouts with the same content. All references are separated InCopy as page numbers vary from book to book.

    That said, so that other documents in the work of book very well, this one is having issues. Whenever I try to view the data merge Panel, it crashes. I had a similar problem with other files where if I try to select a merge data source it would break. I've solved the problem of the registration of a copy, the deletion of all pages of the document, by selecting the data merge source (who now works with any content on the pages), and then copy and paste the content on the pages back. Not sure why this works, but it did.

    The problem is that I tried the same solution on this document and it worked until I tried to click on the data merge Panel after you follow these steps, inDesign crashes. If I open the data merge Panel, THEN open the document, it crashes as well.

    I'll try to redo this with panel data fusion open while I copy and paste content back in and see if I can refine the problematic content if that is the question.

    Other documents are open so that they are accessible?

  • Questions to set the path of the image for the data merge in indesign

    Hello. I have problems to define the path to the image properly to merge images into my document. The data merges correctly, then not issued with the source file, but the images will not bind. Have tried serval variables: for example including with and without the "Machintoch HD" root directory path and "/" and with ":" and with the name of folder only. A copy path directly from indesign links Panel. At a loss. Am I missing something simply or is it too complicated?

    can any help?

  • Collective update to a field in the data sorted in a tubular form

    I do a mass update to a field in the data sorted in a tubular form. I've seen samples where they use Java script, but how can I do the same thing in sql, is this possible?
    Again thanks.

    It is possible to make updates in SQL, but of course after a shipment.
    JavaScript changes the values of the form objects, when you use SQL wil you need a way to know what values should be updated and with what value.
    You can create a process with this update, which is carried out under the condition of a specific button.

    Hope this helps,

  • Transfer all of the data files and program from old computer (Vista) to new computer (Windows 7)

    I've been using a Dell xps 420, 32-bit Vista since 2008. I just bought a new Dell xps-8700, 64-bit with windows 7 preinstalled. I would like to transfer all THE DATA, SETTINGS AND PROGRAMS from my old computer to the new computer. I bought a cable easy transfer of Dell for windows, xp, vista, windows 7 and 8. I read somewhere that the method of cable will transfer all my installed programs. Is this true?

    Can someone give me the better, easier and faster method available. At least give me a step by step procedure for this task.

    I am 81 years old and not too computer savvy. Any help you can give will BE appreciated.   bobnancy

    No, it won't, it will transfer personal files and settings. You will have to reinstall your applications from the original installation files or install CDs and DVDs.

    Can someone give me the better, easier and faster method available. At least give me a step by step procedure for this task.

    If you really want to move your applications to the Vista computer, you will need to buy a commercial programs such as Laplink PC Mover that will allow you to move your programs:

  • My main computer crashed and the data has been retrieved from the hard drive, including all of my Outlook Express dbx files

    I'll provide too much information because those of us who are computer knuckleheads think that everything is important since it is a mystery to us.

    My main computer crashed and the data has been retrieved from the hard drive, including all of my Outlook Express dbx files. There are four years of e-mails in these files and critical that I be able to open them.

    My only working computer running XP. It has Outlook Express is installed on it and was once used for e-mail, but not more and not implemented with my ISP to send or receive if it matters at all. Other that the sending and receiving of all the other functions of the OE program appear to be operational.

    I have read many explanations on how to open the files dbx on different sites - all is completely different and most seem well beyond my skill level.

    There is a fairly painless way to open these files? I don't want to try anything that could damage them. Please... any solution please guide me through in its simplest form - I am 64 but pretend you are explaining the process to a 7 year old. Yes, I'm that lame!

    Sorry for writing a novel and thank you to all who take their time to help the ignorant!

    I advise you to immediately copies of your DBX files restored. Save the duplicates in a place safe, and don't mess with them.
    Then try using one of the various tutorials that you have found on the Internet by using a copy of your DBX files restored.
    I did it a few times, but years ago and I DBX http://www.techrepublic.com/forums/questions/how-i-open-corrupted-dbx-files-in-oe/ visualization tool
    You just continue to make attempts, using a tutorial after another.
    As long as you have these unchanged copies of backup of your DBX files, you should survive it - other than frustration. Email PC remains a mess.

  • Find the empty entries after the data merge

    Hey all,.

    I would like to know if it is somehow possible to search for empty entries after that data merge is complete?

    The "Scriptures" are shown with visible hidden characters, as you can see in the attached screenshot:

    Screen Shot empty entry.png

    Can I copy and insert in the Find/Replace window, but nothing can be found. I think that these aren't real hidden characters.

    Any Solution?

    And please don't tell me to remove blank lines for empty fields before the fusion of the data

    Thank you!

  • Switch to numbers in the data merge

    I have a strange problem with data merge in CS6. We are merging the addresses and when the address field starts with 2 numbers (like 11-100 Main Street or 11 100th Street) the fusion of data passes these numbers (so we are left with 100-11 Main Sreet or 100 11th Street). Can you help me understand?

    You have maybe taken care of right-left on language that these paragraphs?

  • Attempt to use the data merge in the Slug, unable to complete the merge

    I try to create a very large document (50 + Pages) to print the information that I need the slug, fired from a CSV file.

    When I do, I get an error message "cannot create a merged document because no placeholders are present. If please add items in the Panel data for the pages of document merge and try again. »

    I have to back up the text field to the chart/printspace Board of the document, and then manually move after the merger for each individual page. This is a HUGE drawback.

    Does anyone have any suggestions or comments?

    Thank you!

    When you set up your text box in the slug area, set the text box to align to the bottom. Then pull the upper part of the box upward just enough so it's barely on the bottom edge of the page. That's all what it takes for the fusion of data examine the spaces reserved to appear on the page.

  • Problems with the data merge

    I created a file in excel with 966 lines all in column A. I have saved as a txt file and created an Indesign document with 966 pages.

    In the InDesign file, I put in place a text box with the font and size, I wanted then he centered in the document. When I do the merging of data in the master page shows only the text of row 2 in every single text box on each page.

    I tried searching and tried the other boxes and do not master pages. Why can't I get my text to display in the order in all pages?

    If I send someone with screenshots or call someone for a step by step which would be very useful.

    Thank you

    Peter

    Line 2 is selected, because the first row should be used as a header that describes the content.

    With regard to the merger itself, you have no need create a 966-page document. Create a document 1 page with your domain in place, and then perform the merge. InD will create automatically 966 pages, or as many as it takes to use all the data. If you want all in the same document, I wouldn't put the merge field in the master page, but on the page of the document instead.
