This ran into an error which when googled returned no information (anj3c7ys.sys not found) Now each time upon booting I get the option between the installed XP and a windows setup. Within...

    Complex many to many structure

    I'm trying to resolve a complex many-to-many model involving Units and Contracts: 1. Both tables store dimensional and fact related data 2. A unit can have 1 contract (which may be expired or not) or no contract at all 3. In most cases one contract relates to multiple units 4. In the rarest of...

    Web service versus directly sourcing database

    We have an ongoing debate about the use of webservices as a ETL-source. Our application development engineers propagate using only a webservice as a source for extracting data. They would like to prohibit direct database access. We have experienced with SSIS and webservices and found it...

    using the xml datasource in FM

    We're currently checking all in and out's to using xml as datasource in FM. Am I right in assuming that each xml file will have to be configured as a datasource? Did anyone run into (which) issues compared to using a relational datasource based on SQL underneath? Ties Blom

    collation mismatch on columns between instances

    When restoring a database backup to an SQL server 2005 instance (9.0.1399 patch) all nvarchar and ntext columns are build with a specified collation type. (that should not be there at all) When restoring to 2 other SQL server instances (9.0.3077) the database is restored without specific...

    If I use SPAN or DIV around an xml element than in HTML the message is shoed for about 5 seconds (on hover) However, it does not seem to performance twice without reloading the page. Is there a way to change this behavior (to persistent showing and being able to get the sreentip more than once)...

    Framework shortcuts disappearing

    We really had to pinch ourselves today.. After installing a custom framework at a customer site we noticed that all shortcuts were stripped from the framework. That involved some shortcuts in the datalayer and ALL objects (except for namespaces) in the presentation layer. We checked the...

    Global temporary table and system priviliges

    I'm trying to build a rather complex script to perform a scan on datadictionary tables. The purpose of the scan is to check whether certain tables are present and which ones contain no data. To achieve I store a reference set in a GTT. GTT's are stored in the temp tablespace. I wonder if I need...

    QE-DEF-0283: the connection is ambiguous

    Frameworks that contain more than 1 datasource keep throwing this error when trying the verify the model. Untill last week the verify action activated a dialogue-screen so one could choose the proper connection. Nothing has changed on the C8 server. Has anyone run onto this problem before? Ties...

    Defining a declared object as SQL in a procedure

    I have an T-SQL script that reads some 660 with many occurences of a certain date calculation: CONVERT(DATETIME, CONVERT(VARCHAR(23), rdb.period_year * 10000 + rdb.period_month * 100 + 1), 112) Where rdb is the table alias used furtheron in the script. Can I define a variable like...

    Simulating full outer join

    In a very rare case we need to simulate a full outer join between 2 tables. In the framework the relation is defined as an inner join and we would like to keep it that way. In BO (bus. objects) I used to generate such an effect by defining 2 queries and synchronizing the result-sets over the...

    Does anyone regocnize the following QS behavior? 1. Create a new report and drag a predefined (framework) filter into the report. This is set as a detail filter. 2. Perform action 1. on an existing report that already has a detail filter. Now the filter is assigned as a summary filter. Is...

    CASTing problems with complex view

    In Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 we observe that the precision and scale are lost when doing a CAST in a view that contains an inline component (with the casting in the inner part) When the underlying table contains a field with number(10,2) then a describe on the view results in datatype number. Version...

    repair and scan FK's

    Apologies in advance, cause I'm probably asking a bit much :) The challenge: writing a scan an repair procedure (in one or more steps) which should: 1. Scan a database (DWH-type) for FK's of the nullable kind 2. Process this information to perform succesive updates to a certain default for...

    identifiers and attributes

    We've noticed that Cognos 8.2 seems to randomnly assign the usage of identifiers / attributes to objects. This introduces different icons within the reporting tools and prompts questions from users. When should an object be assigned as an identifier? Does it make any difference to change the...

    Differerence acces path linked server Oracle 9/10

    We are experiencing huge performance issues with fetching data from a linked Oracle database after upgrading the receiving database to Oracle 10g. It looks as though all data is first fetched at the receiving end, cause temp spaces are floaded. The query ran with no problem between 2 Oracle 9i...

    Oracle designer issues

    Sorry to misuse this general forum, but the one specific for designer seems to be quite 'dead'. I'm looking for good resources to get the most from Designer 9. In general terms, I'm looking for a way to create one big DDL script from all tables and views (minus keys/constraints) from a specific...
