Windows XP: desktop icons changed to the same names, but retained their original functions
Hello
I know that put at the point before, but the problem was never properly solved. I have Windows XP. While I was changing the name of one of my Office Word Document files yesterday, all of a sudden all my desktop icons changed under the same name. I can't tell you how it happened. 'My computer', 'My Documents', 'Trash' 'Internet Explorer', 'Adobe Reader', 'Corel Photo House', "MS Paint", "HP Solution Center" and eight other program launch icons, as well as 12 document records and 25 files of Word document on my desk, all had the same name change that I'd just been undertaken with one Word on my desktop files. Each icon has yet launched the successful operation or properly open to its original content.
I called my friends in the Geek Squad to two different Best Buys and they had never heard of him. I called Microsoft Corp. in Washington State and spoke to someone there. He had never heard of this before but found a couple of reports, one in 2006 and one in 2009. He said that he asked around the House Microsoft and if he could find an answer, post it on the forum.
No one was able to tell me how it could happen and no one could tell me how to fix it.
I then, on my own, done a restore of the system in two days. He restored the original names on all the items that I have listed above and it restored the original names on all 12 desktop file folders. But it does not restore the names under the 25 Word document files. Those that I had to open individually to see what they were and then rename them manually the original name. Would enjoy to hear your opinion on this.

Hi Pete,.
I tried what you wrote... Select all the files, rename one file and all the files are renamed automatically - as I thought - but for a change of my computer, my network places and My Document obtained renamed the sting that it represents in the registry! I tried CTRL + Z file names seem to be restored, but not for the default icons!... Seems interesting...

Good morning friends,
So for my work, I need a script to open files with the same name but located in a different folder. But since I'm a total noob when it comes to programming, I can't understand how do. That's what I have in mind:
-J' I manually open an image.
-The script will look for a file with the same name in another folder that I've specified.
-The script will then select the channel CMYK of the second file and copy and paste it into the first file.
-The second file is then closed without saving the changes.
I have problems with the part where the script searches for a file with the same name as the opened file. I would really appreciate help. Thanks in advance.

Columns with the same name but different data or precision length.
DB version: 10 gr 2
In a diagram, I need to find all of the columns with the same name but different or precision data length (if the column is of type number). I know I have to use the USER_TAB_COLS view for this. But I need to find a logic to compare the names of columns and its lengths.something like
select t1.table_name , t1.column_name , t1.data_type , t1.data_length , t2.table_name , t2.column_name , t2.data_type , t2.data_length from user_tab_columns t1 , user_tab_columns t2 where t1.table_name != t2.table_name and t1.column_name = t2.column_name and t1.data_type = t2.data_type and t1.data_length != t2.data_length
... could be a starting point.

Copy color labels between files with the same name but a different extension.
For historical reasons, I have several occurences where there are RAW files in a folder, and then a subfolder with a selection of the RAW files converted to jpg files.
I'm looking for a way to yellow label RAW files with a jpg in the subfolder. They have the same name except for the extension.
Do manually is compact, it is more than a thousand pictures, so a way to add a script or copy it would be great!
Kind regards

Desktop icons changed to the "Presidency".
OK, so I don't have the prettiest desktop computer in the world, but I don't know how to navigate to everything when I need it.
recently, I noticed that some of my desktop icons and folders have been renamed "Chair" and "Chair (1) «consecutively...»»
I want to know is if anyone has had this happen to them or if its just something mine decided to do it because it's a sign that I should spend my tax on a new computer? HAAre these personal folders or shortcuts of programs?
It is not normal that one of these be renamed out of the blue one day,.
Maybe look in the use of these free scanners and search for corruption.
What security suite do you have now?

Action to save to the same name but different Format
I have thousands of RGB JPG images to deal with on a particular project. Basically, I have to make a selection of certain areas within each image in the water and then save on a black and white GIF that shows the areas of white water.
I created an action that fills the current image of black, my selection of loads, it fills with white, saves the image and closes the file basically.
It works OK, but not as well as I would like. In particular, the file save game.
If the file is named filename.jpg... I want the action to save on the n/b as filename.gif GIF. Without question and without changing what whatsoever. But I can't do that. It appears registration of dialogue and puts in the argument filename "copy copy" etc. (I read this topic elsewhere) and also in question is the usual GIF of the dialog boxes.
The "Close" to the action part also asked "if I want to save my changes, etc." ... I don't want all this to be.
Is it possible to have it do what I want?
Mike
Speaking to the command prompt "save changes":
When creating the action, Dungeon recording via the option 'No' on save changes menu. These preferences are saved in your action and it will close your jpg without you asking them to save.
When converting a jpg to gif file, it always saves as filename.gif; Photoshop never puts a "copy" in the name of the file. How do you save your files?

Get the sizes of tables with the same name but from different schemas
There are two patterns in my database: HAND and ARCH.
Each of these schemas contains a table named SPOITEMS. I would like to get the size of the table "SPOITEMS" of patterns one and another.
I found this script:
Select
nom_segment table_name,
Sum (bytes) /(1024*1024) table_size_meg
Of
user_extents
where
segment_type = 'TABLE '.
and
nom_segment = "SPOITEMS".
Table_name group
but it returns only a single element with the name of the table "SPOITEMS" (owner ARCH).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advanceI assume that you run the query in the ARK? Use ALL_EXTENTS or DBA_EXTENTS instead of USER_EXTENTS

Hello world!
I have a producer consumer configuration, where the producer and the consumer are in sepearte vi. They have the same name, but do not communicate their existence to the other for getting queue function. Therefore, only one is valid, the other ends up invalid. If I check the renum for each loop, they are different. Assumptions?
Destory queue has been wired for real in the Subvi, force to destroy the queues. Thus, the queue was invalidated and then recreated in the other vi.
