Read powerpoint (.ppt) files with Flex, possible at all?
Hello
I saw some online options to convert powerpoint into Flash files and then read/manipulate them presentations.
Now, I created a presentation tool (the tool will open with a projector) with Flex and would create an option where users can browse for a powerpoint presentation and navigate through the slides, all in the Flex application.
I hope this makes sense
So, is this possible at all?
Thanks in advance for answers!
Flex can't connect to native applications such as Powerpoint, so you'll need either to manipulate the binary file data and is perhaps difficult, if not impossible, or you will need to contact some other technologies on the server to actually make the changes. Not perfect, but it's the only way.
If this post answers your question or assistance, please mark it as such.

Hello. I am building a Flex application that must do the following.
[#] Display a datagrid of records from a MySQL database. Each record has a button [attach Image] to allow users to download a JPG/GIF/PNG file associated with this record.
[#] Once the user clicks on the [join Image] button, a popup panel allows the user to search his machine to an image file and then click on [Attach].
[#] If the image does not stop in the JPG/GIF/PNG extension, it stops and gives an error; Otherwise, it goes to resize the image to the width of 200px (leaving the headroom) and uses the ID of the record to save the file on the server.
[#] It then displays a thumbnail of the image with the record with a text saying that the operation was a success.
-What is possible with Flex? I am a newbie to Flex and your thoughts and suggestions are very much appreciated. All of the examples that do something similar? Thank you.See help FB3 FileReference.

I could not found what the problem is.
Two things are wrong:
(1) the lack of namespace declaration
(2) that you are trying to project expandable nodes into a single line
This should work:
SELECT x1.ReportCreated , x2.* FROM XMLTable( XMLNamespaces(default 'http://www.post.ch/schemas/dfu/2006/20/Report11') , '/ROOT/Sender' passing xmltype(:xml_response) columns ReportCreated varchar2(30) path '@ReportCreated' , items xmltype path 'Provider/Data/Item' ) x1 , XMLTable( XMLNamespaces(default 'http://www.post.ch/schemas/dfu/2006/20/Report11') , 'Item' passing x1.items columns SendingID varchar2(50) path '@SendingID' , ItemID varchar2(30) path '@ItemID' , IdentCode varchar2(30) path '@IdentCode' ) x2 ;

How to read a text file with line breaks
Hello
I'm reading a text file in a textFrame. We read in, but does not include line breaks is just a big long line of text. I use the following code to read the file. I tried to insert a \n character after each readln() but that has not helped. I also tried to create a variable that the readln() was crammed in before setting the textFrame.contents variable, but which does not work either. I'm puzzled. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
While (! notesDoc.eof) {}
noteTextRef.contents += notesDoc.readln ();
}Doug
Just use fileObect.read () instead of fileObect.readln () / / read online also try to use instead of \n \r

Import SharePoint PPT files - is it possible?
Hello
I'm trying to import PPT slides that are stored on SharePoint in Captivate 4. If I use the dialog box to navigate to the location (via My Network Places) I get the following error message:
Captivate has encountered an error converting the PowerPoint files bitmap images.
If I paste the full url into the file name box I get a connection for SharePoint dialog box, but the same error occurs. If I download the file to my desktop, it is important in Captivate if this isn't something to do with the file itself.
Has anyone successfully any PPT slides that are hosted on SharePoint in Captivate, if if I'm missing something here?
Thanks for your time
Hello
It's an old trick, but one that can help in this matter.
Are you able to map the Sharepoint in a way as a drive letter are assigned to it? My thinking is that may manage to Captivate probably he will respect and allowing the import.
See you soon... Rick

Unable to read the .avi files with Windows Media Player 11 on XP
Original title: Media player upgrade was worse than basic
I recently updated my Player multimedia media Player 11 and now it won't play movies from AVI file that I used to be able to play easily on the outdated version. Why is this?Hello
Do you have an error message when you try to play with Media Player AVI files?
When you try to play a file that uses a codec that is not installed on your computer, Windows Media Player attempts to download the codec from a Microsoft server. If the
Codec is available, the Windows Media Player installed on your computer, and then bed file. However, if the codec is not available on the server (for example, because)
the codec not created by Microsoft), Windows Media Player displays a message that your computer is missing a codec.In some cases, the file you want to play uses a codec that is not available or compatible with Windows Media Player. When this happens, you may be unable to use Windows Media Player to play this particular .avi file.

Read multiple audio files with a single button - Playlist
Hello
im working on an interactive project that require the playlist function,
The idea is to have a single button on a page that will play all the audio files on the page in the order they
as you play a complete album in itunes or other players, when the first ending song the following begin to play and so on.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Guy
(1) put all the audio files in the Indesign document.
(2) create a button,
3) go to the Control Panel button and add multiple actions for 'Her', and for what actions define the audio file name
Now go to the Panel of Timing and to organize the sequence of the audio file to read, just as the Panel layer, (drag / drop)
Check the output.

read spreadsheet with ultiple possible delimiters
How to use read the spreadsheet file to read in the text files with different possible delimiters? Some use tabs, some use a single space, some use a variable number of spaces, some use commas. (I don't know how many elements there are in each line. approach of Altenbach 2006 includes a number of elements on each line). Thank you.
WCR,
Read a line from the file with low-level file functions. He's looking for the tabs. If any are found, read the file with the spreadsheet of the reading by a tab delimiter. If no tabs are found in the first line, read use 'space' as the delimiter with the Read function. If there are other possible delimiters, it takes a more complex search, but the same principle can be extended.

Cannot open files with the EXTENSION of the PPT FILE
I can't open a file with the following extension using PowerPoint ppt. The message below is what I get-
The selected file is not a valid Microsoft PowerPoint file. It may be a file created by another program.
Try by double-clicking the file in Windows Explorer to see if another program opens to it. If PowerPoint opens again when you double-click the file in Windows Explorer, it is possible that the file is not a PowerPoint file, but its extension has been renamed to be that of a PowerPoint file type registered (for example, .ppt, .pptx, .pps, .ppsx, .pptx, .pot or .potx) but the file is not a PowerPoint file.
To determine which program can open the file, try one of the following:
- Contact the original author (if known) to know what program you used to create this file. Then rename the file with the correct extension so that it can be opened by this program.
- Try opening the file in other programs.
- If you or someone you know, are very knowledgeable about software, review the file header in a text editor to determine which program can read the file.
Another possibility is that the file has been damaged during transfer from another computer. Trying to transfer the file again.
The file may be damaged. If you have a copy of the file backup, use it. It is not possible repair corrupted file.

PowerPoint 2007 recording is not the .ppt files
I am running Office 2007 on Vista Home Premium x 64. I noticed that when I make changes to files .ppt (not .pptx) existing and save, the changes are not stored on my drive hard (I'm not trying to save to a network drive). Furthermore, if I create a new presentation and save it as a .ppt file file does not appear in Windows Explorer and is not accessible to other programs such as e-mail applications.
I ran the diagnostics Office but it found no problem. As far as I know, my installation is fully updated with SP2.
Can anyone help? This is a really frustrating problem!

This is my first time using this forum. I hope that my question made its appearance and that this space is to respond to the answers possible, but just in case, here's my question again:
On a PC using Windows and Adobe Reader, I sent 10 PDF files in a zip file and each label of the PDF file with a number from 1 to 10, so that they appear in the order I want. Numbered 1 to 9 records fell in the sequence automatically, but the number 10 appears under the number 1 instead of below the number 9. I googled the problem, do not see addressed. I called Microsoft, and they said it's a matter of Adobe. If anyone can help I would be grateful.
Thank you.
Not an Adobe issue at all. If you want your files to a single digit (1-9) to appear before the 10, you must add a zero at the beginning.
