OT: ADD System?
Has anyone here (maybe in a past life?) worked with this system?It is a very common program used by Oil/Propane/Natural Gas/etc delivery companies to track their customers, schedule deliveries, set prices, just about everything needed. We are working with a company that uses it, and we need to get some info out of the DB, but can't figure out how.Eventually, we would like to get the whole customer info out of the Db so that customers can check their next delivery date, pay bills, etc, but for right now we'd be happy just being able to export out some of the info in a usable format. Problem is, the ADD company has a web module that is ridiculous in price, so they will not help us try to 'beat the system' by developing our own.I know what we need to do, just don't know how to do it.

Quickbooks IIF files???
I am currently building a timesheet application for my company, which is pretty simple.My boss wants me to save her some time by being able to take all the data that I am collecting from the employees and import it into Quickbooks.I have been google-ing this for the past hour, and what I am finding is that Quickbooks needs the import data to be in the Inuit Info File (I think that is what it stands for), or .iif format.Research on an iif file seems to show that it is just another version of a csv file.Has anyone in here ever exported from a db to Quickbooks before?I know how to create a csv file, but i just want to make sure that I am headed down the right path...

RE: Quickbooks IIF files???
Thanks to both of the Mark's... I will try out the second solution. Sometimes you just gotta know where to look for the right info! Ray At 01:51 PM 8/23/2004, you wrote: You are correct - the iif file is pretty much a comma delimited ascii file. The answer you need is actually in the quickbooks help files - here's an excerpt. -Mark --- You may also want to refer to the Reference Guide to Import Files Note: These instructions are rather long. You may want to print them instead of reading them onscreen. To print them, click Options and then choose Print Topic. If you've been using another financial software product, and you'd like to import information from that product into QuickBooks, you can do so if the product allows you to export to a spreadsheet or text file. You can import lists that correspond to QuickBooks lists, budgets, and individual transactions. Tip: The easiest way to see and understand the format QuickBooks needs to import data is to export some of your QuickBooks lists and view the resulting file in a spreadsheet. If you don't already have a QuickBooks company, you can export lists from the sample data (sample_product-based business. Qbw or sample_service-based business.qbw). 1 Open the spreadsheet that contains the data. 2 Move the contents of all the cells in your spreadsheet one column to the right so that the first column is blank. 3 Move the contents of all the cells down by one row so that the first row is blank. 4 Check the structure of the spreadsheet. If it contains more than one type of listor a mixture of lists, budgets, and transactionsmake sure that each type of information has its own block in the spreadsheet. The blocks should follow each other vertically. Insert a blank row of cells to separate the blocks. For example, it you have a list of customers and a list of vendors, all the customer data should be in one block and all the vendor information should be in another block. 5 In the first cell in the blank row above each block of information, enter one of the keywords shown in this table. Be sure to include the exclamation point (!). Type this text. . . If the block contains !ACCNT Details about your chart of accounts. !CUST A customer address or phone list. !VEND A vendor address or phone list. !EMP A list of employees. !OTHERNAME A list of names you'd like to add to QuickBooks Other Name list. !BUD Budget details. !CLASS A list of general classifications you'd like to add to QuickBooks Class list. !CTYPE A list of customer classifications you'd like to add to QuickBooks Customer Type list. !INVITEM Details about the line items you use on sales and purchase forms. !INVMEMO Messages you'd like to add to QuickBooks Customer Message list. !PAYMETH A list of payment methods you'd like to add to QuickBooks Payment Method list. !SHIPMETH A list of shipping methods you'd like to add to QuickBooks Ship Via list. !TERMS A list of payment terms you'd like to add to QuickBooks Terms list. !TIMEACT Details about activities you timed with the QuickBooks Pro Timer. Works with !TIMERHDR. !TIMERHDR QuickBooks Pro Timer data. !TODO A list of upcoming to do tasks you want QuickBooks to remind you about. !TRNS Transactions. !VTYPE A list of vendor classifications you'd like to add to QuickBooks Vendor Type list. For example, if the spreadsheet contains a list of customers and then a list of vendors, the structure of the spreadsheet would be as follows: !CUST [List of customers] !VEND [List of vendors] [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

As to executing a query within cfscript
Know you can't --- but you can fudge it
create a function (or CFC that issues the query based on a string
passed toit.The string contains the SQL statements).
within the script tag invoke the function which returns the record set
Howie Hamlin had a thread on this earlier today.
BTW, It is generally thought to be a good idea to generalize this
approach and put all your db calls into CFCs ( code reusability).I
have even seen recommendations that you write these CFCs like like OOP
objects with getters and setters for each field in the db.I don't
know if that level of implementation is warranted on most projects.
But I do find it useful to gather all my queries into a CFC (or CFCs)
where a function has a default columnlist and action that can be
overridden when the function is called.

We are currently trying to figure out how much space will be taken up by an Access DB that is around 250MB when we switch to an SQL Server DB.Anybody have any general guidelines as to how much space we'll save by converting? We need to know to price out hosting... Thanks!

Re: techspedition.com - Fusebox 4
Why is that an argument?Are you saying that it is so difficult to write a book (which I am definitely not arguing, I agree that it for sure is) that mistakes are eminent?If you are going to make me pay for a book, I would hope that all measures are taken to make sure it is as mistake-free as possible...

The CFC book had quite a few mistakes in it, you could copy the code letter for letter out of the book and it would not work.There is some helpful information in it however IMHO it lacked a very good proof reading and is not worth the retail price.Read through the reviews on Amazon for a better description: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0972078649/qid=1092265095/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/104-5699002-7880749?v=glances=books When reading through something it should not be a challenge to figure out what mistakes were made in the book, though I guess that helps you learn something even better.

And regarding the Fusebox volume, well given that John Q was AFAIK one of the key developers of FB4 I think if you are dismissing the book you are pretty much dismissing the tool.

SOT: many IPS or one?
I have a sort of off-topic question for you guys concerning hosting set-ups.We have about 89 domains that we are currently hosting at XO communications for cheap cheap money.All of them are static sites - html only - we do our CF hosting elsewhere (I'll leave 'who' up to your imaginations to avoid 'my host is better than yours' conversations).Recently, XO decided that they are going to start charging us an arm and a leg for our hosting, yet still keep the same crappy customer service and questionable uptime.So, we have started to look elsewhere for hosting options.The cheapest option given to us from most hosting companies is using one IP address and having all sites reside under the one IP using IIS redirects (I guess, I'm not an IIS guy).We are used to having one IP per domain at XO... My boss is totally against going this route, but has no reason to do so.What I want to know is why would this matter?Search Engines, etc don't care what our IP address is, right?Are there any real reasons that we should have a separate IP for every account, even if we were to bundle all of our CF accounts into one host?The hosting companies are reputable large (not cheap or crappy service) companies, so those things are not an issue, we have already weeded out the dregs...

Re: many IPS or one?
Yea, I forgot to mention that is the way that we are heading - towards a managed dedicated server, not a shared one like we are right now.Your advice was exactly what I was thinking.I was just looking for any snags that I might not have thought of regarding the multiple IP/single IP situation. Thanks, Ray At 04:20 PM 8/10/2004, you wrote: For that many static domains - I would suggest you go to a managed or co-lo server.All of them could well be handled on a single IP number and set up as virtual domains, much as shared hosting is done with many, if not most hosting providers. Secondly, unless they are (The static sites) are unusually high traffic sites, you could also place your CF sites on the same server as well.All this for around $200 or so monthly.This could be an additional profit center as well for your company. One big advantage other than having one place to do your updates, you would have remote desktop access to the servers, database, mail, etc.Complete admin freedom is very useful.

RE: SOT: many IPS or one?
We do have a couple of companies that use SSL, but some of the hosting companies we inquired about said that we can purchase separate IP's for $1 per month or something like that.So, if SSL will be an issue, we can just go with a few (10) more IP's and treat them separately, correct? Ray At 04:46 PM 8/10/2004, you wrote: We have been doing it for a couple of years. I have over 100 websites on just one server and most of them are the same IP. The only thing that gets separate IPs are SSL and special Application sites like the control panel or the webmail. The need for a Static IP is really Old School thinking, IIS can handle all the request using hostheaders. Now if your boss absolutely has to have 89 Domains each with its own IP I am sure us or most hosting companies can accommodate you but it would take time and money to setup the IP block.

I do virtual hosting all the time and have no problems.If you're using SSL, you'll run into issues, because you need to have a separate IP for each individual SSL certificate, but for non-SSL hosting, it's great. The argument against it is that clients which don't support HTTP1.1 will only ever get the default host on the IP address, becuase they don't send a host header, but you'll be hard pressed to find such a client anywhere. cheers, barneyb On Tue, 10 Aug 2004 15:59:52 -0400, Ray Champagne [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a sort of off-topic question for you guys concerning hosting set-ups.We have about 89 domains that we are currently hosting at XO communications for cheap cheap money.All of them are static sites - html only - we do our CF hosting elsewhere (I'll leave 'who' up to your imaginations to avoid 'my host is better than yours' conversations).Recently, XO decided that they are going to start charging us an arm and a leg for our hosting, yet still keep the same crappy customer service and questionable uptime.So, we have started to look elsewhere for hosting options.The cheapest option given to us from most hosting companies is using one IP address and having all sites reside under the one IP using IIS redirects (I guess, I'm not an IIS guy).We are used to having one IP per domain at XO...

Some terminals could even buffer and print backwards. With modern displays, this advantage of separating cr and lf is gone. Interesting that the older OS (Unix) has the newer construct -- i suspect that this is largely due to IBM's influence on the early versions of MS DOS.

One topic that was discussed was whether ColdFusion had a feature that would help with this issue: since all of the content ultimately can be accessed through loading a URL, how could he protect it? It was suggested that if the application.cfm file could contain the username and password for an IIS or Apache protected folder where all the content material is stored in sub-folders, then the material would be loaded normally into the browser when called through his pages, but the content material would not load when the URL of a specific piece of content was pointed too without going through .cfm and therefore the application.cfm template. The question that none of us had the answer to was, can this be done in ColdFusion? Can you pass the username and password that protects a sub-directory out to Apache or IIS, so that material in that sub-directory is loaded if called through CF but won't load with just the address in the browser?

Image Manipulation - server side
Forgive me if this has been brought up before, but I didn't see anything that was solved in the archives... We have a form where a user can upload an image that will be displayed with their listing in a directory.To solve the multiple sizes that can end up output in the listings, I have made a crude _javascript_ that forces the image into a certain 'block'.Now that we have quite a few listings up, the page takes FOREVER to load, since some of the images people are uploading are close to 1MB each. What I am looking for is a *cheap* way to manipulate the image after it has been uploaded so that I can save the image at the size that I want, therefore eliminating the page load time problem.What have others used?

Re: Image Manipulation - server side

I need a login, shopping cart, dynamic database, automated emails for certain things,etc... and a few other items. I would like to just use something pretty much pre-made and just change my colors, headmast graphics,etc... and be done with it. Even if it was not a site for CF would be ok like php/mysql or whatever... I can tweak some of the code for my emails,etc... but I cannot build the whole thing on my own.

Re: OT: allow access to database
That's what we do here - although, not being from a security background, I am not positive that this is the best way.But others that I know of give read-only access this way, too. So, you would not be alone. Ray At 11:17 AM 6/30/2004, you wrote: I have a developer that needs access to a database. They suggested I give them a backup of it that they can work with. My first thought was OK but then I started thinking about it. I don't like the thought of some one having a complete copy of my database. Here's my question. Wouldn't it be better to just create a user account that has read only access to the tables that they will be working with? The app they are writing only needs read access and I can kill the account when they are done. To me, it seems more secure doing it this way. Thoughts? Phillip B.

CFGRAPH issues?
I am re-deploying a CF based app that was written in CF in 2001, which extensively uses KavaChart for graphs of emissions from a trash burning plant.The charts do not get that complicated, usually just bar and line graphs as a value extended over time. My question is, in past (5.0) versions of CF, I heard through the grapevine that there were a LOT of problems with CFCHART/CFGRAPH.I don't remember or know what they were, so I just wanted to know if the MX version has fixed these problems or not.If not, what do others use for their graphing solutions?Price is somewhat not an issue, this company has money budgeted.

Slightly OT: Graphics expert?
Anybody here really good with graphics?We have a designer here who is having a lot of trouble creating text graphics (for navigation, say) that are not all fuzzy around the edges.She swears that she has tried everything in Photoshop, filters, etc, but they still look like crap.The way that she is doing them is just not going to fly with professional web sites.So, my question is, does anybody have a surefire way to create crisp, non pixelated or fuzzy text graphics in Photoshop that they care to share with us? BTW, I know about css and rollover effects, etc, but we sometimes need to have drop shadows and other effects that I don't think that you can get with css. Any help or pointers to tutorials that we have not found would be appreciated.

Use the 'query' attribute of the cfmail tag to loop over a query and send the email to everyone in the db, if you know that each and every email address is valid (syntactically).If not, create the sql query, then loop (using cfloop, using cfmail over every loop) and cftry/cfcatch to make sure that the invalid emails are caught and can be dealt with.

RE: getting all form fields?
Maybe this will help. Running Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; H010818; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) I am pretty close.I output the GetHTTPRequestData() content list and got the list of form fields in the order that I have them in the form, but when they output, they come in a different order.I have a 'billto field that shows up first, yet that is 6thg in the list that I am outputting.Here is the code, maybe I am missing something obvious cfloop index=i list=#StructKeyList(FORM)# cfif NOT #Len(FORM[i])# EQ 0 !--- If the field names are any of the ones specified, don't output them --- cfswitch _expression_=#i# cfcase value=FIELDNAMES/cfcase cfcase value=REDIRECT/cfcase cfcase value=REQUIRED/cfcase cfcase value=REALNAME/cfcase cfcase value=PRINT_CONFIG/cfcase cfcase value=PRINT_BLANK_FIELDS/cfcase cfcase value=RECIPIENT/cfcase cfcase value=SUBJECT/cfcase cfdefaultcase b#i#:/bnbsp;#FORM[i]#brbr /cfdefaultcase /cfswitch /cfif /cfloop At 05:15 PM 6/9/2004, you wrote: What variable are you using to get a list of form fields?

Re: excel files
I don't know if this would help, but if you can export the files to a csv file via Excel, you could then read the file using cffile (read) - no datasource But, you would have to change the file, and I don't know if that is possible for you or not.

RE: A lesson in security by obscurity...
What free tools do you speak of? Along with that, anybody know of any good security classes (online or otherwise) that one could take for people like me?By that I mean a 'normal' CF programmer with just enough knowledge of most things computer related to be dangerous... A local community college near here *used* to teach it, but the guy knew a little too much (former teacher of mine) and gave out that info, and I don't think that went over too well.
