Renaming of the names of existing members

We try to make a long list of edge member name changes (~ 200) for level 0 or level Parent members and noticed the API ESBOTLRENAMEMEMBER function. It seems that it could be used by others and have seen several Threads in OTN speaks of the function, but I have not seen all messages to a task force Excel VBA do a search/replace with this function. Can anyone point a working VBA code to do a search / replace?

what I'm trying to do, is to have a spreadsheet with a "name of origin" and a column with "New names" and have the code to loop through the list.

It looks like a basic task, many people could use. Someone at - it something similar that they created?

Thanks advance!

Robert

Thank you, Glenn. Memory, not what it was!

Robert, I will try to set up like this:

Open a workbook on Sheet1, place your new names in column A and the old names in column b. keep active Sheet1.
Open "Visual Basic" in Excel
Create two modules in your VBA project associated with the workbook - one containing the statements simply copied and pasted from esb32.bas, the other containing the code above.
Place a breakpoint on the Public Sub UpdateOutline() line in the procedure.
Place the cursor on that line and press F8 - then keep hitting F8 to step through the procedure. In particular, check the value of lngStatus after each call Essbase API - it must be null if everything works.

If you are still experiencing difficulties and have / create an e-mail address display does not bother you, I could always send you a workbook. Must esb32.bas statements match your version, however, even though is not guaranteed.

  • Renaming of documents by adding an annex of the commune for the names of existing files on several files in a single folder

    Is it possible to add an annex to the town (for example "-file BL ') existing file name (for example"daily reports1) to several (selected) files in the same folder?  (The example given could therefore be renamed "daily reports - comes from the BL file").  I need to do this to identify the source of documents folder when they are copied into a common folder: to compare with the similar files in other folders for various purposes.  There are a lot of documents in many files, I need to transfer and compare.  A rough estimate, it is that I need to add an annex to the town of 200 files named differently in a single folder and repeat this process for 30 files: with my existing knowledge of XP, this means that I would have use the rename individually on 6000 documents, and if the additional annex has been say 5 characters which would be a minimum of 30 000 key strokes : If adding appendages common to several document names selected in a folder is possible, this might reduce the name change to close to 150 list.

    PLEASE NOTE the multiple rename function where each selected file is the same thing with a renamed after the index number in brackets should not be - the original file name should be kept.

  • Can we change the name of existing scenarios in a sketch

    Hi all

    I have a requirement like changing the name of the scenario existing to another name...

    Ex: The name of the scenario existing Scenario-> 'Budget '.
    After changing the name of the scenario scenario-> Fcst_Buget

    Can we do this?

    If Yes, what are the things I need to take care because we have data for this scenario... Please let me know...


    Please update on this... its urgent

    Absolutely, you can change the names of members.

    Are you concerned about the impact on data loads, formulas, Calc, etc.?

    An easy way to have your cake and eat it too is to assign an alias to the Member, as well as the Budget now becomes Budget with an alias of Fcst_Budget. What are the artifacts refer to the old name continue to do so and a perspective report you reference the alias.

    Or you can reverse the trend so that the name of the Member now becomes Fcst_Budget and the alias is the Budget.

    Your choice, but I think the first, that's what you want.

  • Update the names of existing suppliers?

    Hello

    We use Oracle EBS R12.1.3

    We have about 4000 suppliers which have been implemented without any naming convention.

    We identified all vendors and standardised the naming of the provider agreement.

    We will update existing provider names, the number of suppliers will remain the same. Just the name will be normalized.

    For example to LIMIT Epic Epic LTD

    British Telecom BT

    Now, this has no impact whatsoever.

    We just want to be sure before we commit to this exercise.

    Kind regards

    Fiona

    There is no involvement of the system except for the fact that the new name will be reflected everywhere including PO, invoices etc.

  • Why windows 7 don't overwrite not the names of existing files

    I have Windows 7. When I save a document or a spreadsheet, I want to start with a file name and add a version number to it, but Windows just replaces the original file. For example, I start with Doc1.doc and then call Doc1v3.doc. The system replaces the original Doc1.doc instead to add the version number. It is causing a bit of a mess with version control, and I'd appreciate any help to solve this problem.

    I think that Office word forum would be a better place to ask.

    If you change your question and select the office and section, and the version of the year.

    But just as a suggestion until your question is moved.

    If you use word, and you open a doc file,.

    Make your changes / additions and use Save as... .and when you close word a popup appears asking if you want to save changes, click No because the word refers to the doc first not open save it under... doc.

  • Cannot use fax function after rename the name of the printer

    I have an MFP HP LaserJet M1536DNF connected by network.  I have run the full setup package by the CD of the product, or on the web, complete update install the driver package.  The problem is the default printer name after installation as like "HP LaserJet 1530 MPF Series PCL 6" and can not be changed through the installation.  When I tried to change the printer name on the windows 'Printers and faxes', he managed but the fax doesn't work anymore after that.  It says probably 'impossible to find or connect the printer' after I click the fax or print the document to the fax printer.  However, I can still use the printing function after the name change.  The only way to solve now is to uninstall all and reinstall again, even I tried to rename back the name exactly for the name of the printer.  I use Window XP Pro SP3 with .net Framework 3.5 already up-to-date.  Thanks for the tips.

    Hi Cheetah12,

    Sorry to misunderstand.  I mean there is no option to not rename the printer when you run the complete package installation wizardfirst, but not the fax configuration wizard.

    In fact, I must mention once again that I have can print and scan even I renamed the printer.  Things I can't do the HP Send Fax or fax HP Setup Assistant and so, which means my fax machine was not working properly.

    Therefore, I follow the document from HP that you post step by step and of course the diagnosis by downloaded HP Print result and doctor Scan for both printing and scanning are in good health, all in green light!  But cannot always solve the problem of the fax.

    However, I finally found my way to solve the problem, which is just rename back the original printer name in the registry.  As a result, the printer in "Printers and faxes" which always shows the famous name, but actually running with the original name of the printer.

    In any case, thank you for your kindly help and fast track.  But I suggest there should be a direct way, like having an option to rename the name of the printer while the first installation wizard on your next updated version.  This will certainly help users who have to install 2 or more of the same model printer, to indicate which printer works easily.

  • How to change the computer name of existing desktop computers linked clone pool?

    Hello

    I'm curious about something that has developed in our Organization.  New guidelines came down and we have to change the name of the computer for all of our offices to meet the new criteria.

    I have many of our users is on the offices of Linked-Clone (automated pool, dedicated, assignment see 5.1) which will have their names have been changed.  I use a 'model' for the name of the computer.

    I tried this before by simply change the settings of the pool, and then recompose the pool.  Recompose worked well, but NONE of the virtual machine names have been changed.  All machines, recomposed just fine, but keep the old name of the computer (non-compliant).

    How can I change the name of the computer of my clone in an existing pool offices?  Maybe I have something wrong.  I'm doing it instead of having to create a new pool and move the persistent disks.  I would like to change the name in the settings of the pool and recompose, but it did not work.

    Scenario:
    See 5.1

    Automated cloning related pool

    Assignment of dedicated (persistent disks)

    Thanks in advance

    It is not possible to change the name of existing workstations by modifying the settings of the pool. There is no way to make this happen automatically and in doing so manually would not seen happy.

    Unfortunately, for dedicated pools, you will have more work to do. If you do not use Persona you detach the persistent disks and recreate virtual machines in the pool with this disk to create a new virtual machine with a new name to be generated.

    If you use Persona you could remove all virtual machines and have Persona to extract profile data down to the virtual machine that would be entitled to the user when they connect then. This will cause all user installed programs go, but I hope that's not common if you are already using linked clones.

  • Impossible to rename all the files on my desktop

    Hello
    When I create a new folder on my desktop and rename it, the name does not change and it remains as 'new folder '. When I go into the properties of the particular folder box 'read only' is a blue square. So when I try and turn off the blue box is clear, it stays on and it will not turn off.
    I am the administrator and I have full control of the folder according to the scutiry tab in the Properties menu. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with a 200 GB hard drive and 3 GB of RAM and a processor clocked at 2.66 ghz.
    Any help would be appreciated since I tried other responses on various forums and am no - where.
    Thank you

    Sooty1892,

    I'd like to experience for me to better understand the potential cause for what you are experiencing.

    What we will do is create a new folder in your user profile directory and test the availability of renaming.

    We also create a folder on your desktop and attempt to appropriate to see if we can then rename it.

    Here are the steps to do this:

    Click Start-> click on your username at the top right of the menu.

    In the new window, click on organize-> then new folder

    Check your ability to rename.

    From there, double-click the desktop folder.

    Take the same steps to create a new folder, test the name change.

    Then, on an issue that you cannot rename, test this procedure:

    To take ownership of a folder:

    Right-click the folder for which you want to set permissions, click Properties and then click the Security tab.

    Click Advanced to open the security settings advanced for the dialog box .

    Click on the owner tab, click on change. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    In the new security settings advanced to box, the change in ownership to: field, select your username and check Replace owner of subcontainers and objects. Click OK, repeat for the other boxes. (If your username does not appear click on the button other users or groups to add your account).

    Try to rename the folder.

    Once you are complete with tests, you can delete the folder created by right-clicking on them and selecting Remove.

    View the results of your tests.

  • Get the names of cache in a service

    Hello

    Is there a way to get the names of existing caches in a service in c#

    Concerning
    Nitin jegou

    Hi Nitin,

    In coherence, support cards for caches themselves are created in each node on demand each time that the first is the message (user request (if the cache did not use so far) redistribution (if partitioned) or initial population (in the case of replication)) arrives at the node.

    They are created according to the configuration schema caching.

    Caches themselves are not defined at all in the configuration, only the caching of schemas.

    In addition, cache mappings are defined, but this does not mean that they are actually used and corresponding cache are not created until they are first mentioned in the cluster, support cards.

    Is not yet possible to define an operation which gives the back of the list caches that can be created, because it depends on its use actual cache.

    The only significant thing is the list of cache and corresponding mappings to the caching of schemas, but gives no information on if cache actually has already been used or not. This information, you can possibly go to support card Manager, and that (I don't remember my head) can have a method that gives you information on the question of whether a backup plan has already been instantiated for the name of cache or not without instantiate following the "issue" himself.

    Best regards

  • function to change the names of data type members

    I was wondering if (TestStand 4.2) contains the ability to call all referrences to a Data Type member used in a sequence will be replaced by the new name if this member DataType is renamed in the MyTypes.ini file?

    The answer is no, and it's a difficult problem, if you speak code modules written in different programming languages different sources including files and always a problem semi-difficile if you're not because of the possibility of lookupstrings appearing in places unusual or used in an unusual way.

    However, there are 2 features that exist in TestStand 4.2 which should help with this.

    (1) search/replace in files - if the old name is quite unique, it should be easy, if it is not then maybe with a clever use of regular expressions in the search string, it should still be feasible.

    (Monitor 2) - this should help you find the places that need fixing or you might have missed to make 1) above.

    Hope this helps,

  • The data store name already exists

    Hello

    I have 3 hosts in my group and I am trying to add a 4th. The host, I'm trying to add part of the cluster, but it was removed there because it has been used a few weeks somewhere else. I have since reinstalled ESX and try to add back to the cluster.

    When I try and add a NFS data store to the host named "NAS-storage" added it is automatically renamed to "NAS-storage (1)", if I try the rename without (1) I get an error message...  "The NAS-storage name already exists." 3 other guests are currently connected to the data without any problem store.

    How can I fix it?

    I tried to reboot the host, restart the service of railway infrastructure and to rename the data store on the other hosts to something else.

    Welcome to the forums.

    Make sure that you add the store of data with exactly the same name/IP address and the name of path as those mounted on other hosts

    You can get the correct mount point by running

    esxcfg-nas -l

  • Keep the name of original when file rename and convert to DNG

    In LR 2.6 when I imported my (RAW) images, I would incorporate keeping the original file number, so I would like to batch rename and convert to DNG, once they were already in my catalog.  As I draw from stock, I keep a meticulous care the registry of what I shoot for purposes of metadata and keywords.  I noticed that when I upgraded LR 3, my in my existing catalogs/folders, the original file names are gone and just the new personalized name & sequencing appear. Unfortunately, I still have the Word key & metadata tag many images, but the original numbering in the camera is now missing.  With my new whatever I did to preserve the original numbering, is to import, make my keywords/metadata, and then rename a batch.  However, having to go back is pain, when in the former is LR was easier.  Maybe someone out there knows how to keep both.  It's just easier to check my notes when I have the original of the image number.  Any tips/ideas/suggestions?

    What means Jeff are the display options in the metadata panel here:

    I import, rename and then convert to DNG and as you can see wear the camera file name in the field of origin.

    I don't know why I want as I back up after the name change.
