[cfaussie] Scott and Andrew have driven me away

2007-04-26 Thread Tom MacKean
OK. Had enough. I'm unsubscribing from cfaussie as of now.

Let me make this perfectly clear. I am dropping off this list for one reason
only, and that is that every time someone comes up with a sensible post
about something Scott and Andrew turn it into a flame war.

Scott - this is a list for people who have problems or questions about all
things COLDFUSION - it is not a forum for "Well you could do it with CF but
look at this alternative from MS".

Andrew - To quote from Bambi "If ya can't say nuffin' nice, don't say
nuffin' at all." Have a look through your posts and see how many have ADDED
to people's knowledge of a subject and how many have just been having a dig
at something someone (usually Scott) has said.

They went and set up a whole new watercooler newsgroup for you guys so you
could take your crap off cfaussie but your egos keep you posting in other
people's topics.

What a couple of pricks.

Don't bother replying, I'm gone.

[cfaussie] Re: Date format

2007-04-04 Thread Tom MacKean
For anyone still interested in this thread, I thought I might show my final
conclusions...

The database is called Bluechip (a product of HCN, the folks who brought you
Medical Director) and anyone working in the health industry may come across
it.

To get a date from a Bluechip date integer subtract the constant 693594 from
the integer and hand over to CF.

e.g. #dateformat(DOB-693594,"d/m/")#

Strangely, if DOB is null, the result is 2/1/0001

Thanks to everyone for their help and suggestions.

OK. Feeling a bit silly now.

#dateformat(718167,"d.m.yy")# works a treat. It gives  9.4.66 which is the
same result as Excel (and I assume is correct)

My confusion initially was that #dateformat(718167,"d.m.")# gives
9.4.3866 which didn't look right at all so I thought is wasn't working. The
key is that the year is only two digits. Sorry for wasting everyone's time
:(

The funny thing is, Excel recognises these numbers as dates. If I paste one
of the numbers into Excel, then do Format Cell > Date and choose the last
option on the list, Excel will happily turn it into a correct date. To my
thinking, it must therefore be a fairly standard way of formatting a date

Very weird. More Googling needed I think.

[cfaussie] Date format

2007-04-03 Thread Tom MacKean
Hi all,

I am using ColdFusion to drag some data kicking and screaming out of a very
strange MS-based database. The date of birth field has values such as 716640
and 712672.

After a bit of mucking about I discovered that I can place this value in an
excel cell and change the format to date to give a value that seems to makes
sense. (The two values above yield 02.02.62 and 24.3.51 respectively).

Does anyone know what is going on here - and more importantly what can I do
in CF to 716640 to make it a date that I can use as a normal date.

Cheers,

Tom

[cfaussie] Re: ColdFusion Hosting

2007-03-06 Thread Tom MacKean
I had a little site for my baseball team hosted at *hostingfuse* and a
database table died. I sent their support helpdesk a please fix request on
29 Nov. They got back to me the same day and said, "We are having a database
related issue that could be causing the problem. Once it's been resolved,
we'll contact you to see if you're still having an issue"

I chased them again on the 18 Dec no reply.

I chased them again in Jan and got this on Jan 11...

Tom -
Normally, each table in mySQL database would have 3 files - hitting.frm,
hitting.MYI and hitting.MYD
Yours has hitting.ISM and hitting.ISD - I restored the files from the backup
taked on 1/11/06 - but it didn't make any difference. I'm not sure what else
we can do.

Guennadi M

PS: Apologies for the delays with getting back to you. We should be back on
track now :)

The table was not critical - I couldn't even be bothered rebuilding it, I
simply removed the functionality it provided from the web site. However,
what if it had been? I found this service less than satisfactory.

Just my experience.

I am a SELECT * user.

(In my defence, I'm self-taught and didn't know any better until now)

My question... is there a trick or tip or tool that you guys use to save
typing in the name of every field that you're after? If you're populating
a big long form, it's a real pain to type every field name into your SELECT
statement (when you could just use a *). Is there a quick way, or do you

[cfaussie] Re: OT: Moving to Sydney

2006-12-17 Thread Tom MacKean
Broadband - If you want cable, I recommend Optus over Telsta - both have
appalling customer service but Optus is marginally less appalling. If you
want ADSL, definitely check out whirlpool as Sean suggests - there are a
million suppliers. A lot of them do a phone/broadband bundle - TPG have a
good one that my neighbour recommends. He gets 60Gb of pretty quick
downloads a month for about $50.

Cable TV - you have the choice of Optus or Foxtel but they have the same
channels so it really depends on what sort of bundle you get. You might want
to bundle it with your mobiles/landlines/cable broadband etc. . Bear in mind
that if you are going to live in an apartment, you may have dramas getting
it hooked up - depends on the block.

Electricity/gas - a couple of different suppliers but they're basically all
the same.

Ikea is pretty good. Lots of stuff and if you have small children, you can
dump them in the supervised playground for an hour while you go shopping
without them (bliss!). It's in Rhodes and there's plenty of parking.

You can get monitors anywhere. There are lots and lots of little computer
shops in Sydney. Check out
http://www.adelong.com.au/store/index.php?cPath=38&osCsid=c0f1a4b0e16ed3b9244f695a689bd5d2.
They're in the city and generally have reasonable prices. Nice blokes too.

Hope this helps.

Thanks everyone. Ryan's suggestion of filtering on lastname to begin with worked a treat. The page runs in about 5 seconds and does everything exactly as it should. Another satisfied cfaussie customer :)

A couple of year ago I wrote a little utility that was doing just that. but it was in vba (excel). I had two list with first name / last name that I had to match, and I used a whole bunch of silly algorithm. like so. 

 
1. look for exact matches
2. look for exact same surname, and try to identify a nickname (like robert in one list, and bob in the other)
3. exact same surname, and same firstname except for one typo (using different flavour of left and right)...
 
and so on. Each of these rules had a color coding, so when viewing the result you knew right away where your matches were. Once you've run it a few times, it becomes obvious that rules 1/2 are 100% accurate, and rule 3-5 still like 85+% accurate. I also remember building an index on the fly, which sped the whole thing considerably. Of course, with a DB, you wouldn't have to do that yourself. I remember that the next feature was going to be a keyboard-smart heuristic, whereby not only do you detect typo, but you also detect the more likely ones (like an a for an s). 

 
I should build this thing again, usig coldfusion, but between work, learning new stuff, and open source projects, I'm afraid I have no time :-/

You could use some SQL to compare just the surnames, stripped of any punctuation and spaces. Then run your function on the resultant data set. This should reduce the processing time somewhat.

My big book of _javascript_ suggests that you might need a semicolon after

e.g. 
 

 var image1 = new Image();
 image1.src = ""> var image2 = new Image();

[cfaussie] Spaces in table names nightmare

2006-04-18 Thread Tom MacKean
We have a huge Navision database that looks after all out patient information. I nned to connect and get some data from it. Unfortunately the monkey who built it has used table names such as: 
 
TEST Sydney IVF Limited$Classification Rate
 
Try as I might, I can't get an SQL statement to accept these as table names. How do I do it? Do I have to escape it in some obscure way. Google has been no help.
 
Thanks,

Thank you all for your replies. I will indeed use a database, use a database, use a database. (It's half built anyway). 
 

I just started thinking about XML because I was looking at my iTunes library file (which is XML) and it seemed like the same sort of structure as my doctors list - that is, it's all about one particular item (song/doctor) with lots of disparate properties. 

 
Thanks,

[cfaussie] OT: XML vs database

2006-04-02 Thread Tom MacKean
I was all set to create a new database for an application that is basically a contact list for doctors when I thought "Would this be better as an XML file?". I've never used an XML file to store and retrieve data before, but I understand the basic concept. 

 
Let me scope it out for you:

Doctors can have multiple addresses
Addresses can have multiple doctors
Doctors can have multiple provider numbers
Only one person at a time needs to be able to use this application so locking it is fine.
It doesn't have to be particularly fast
There will be about 5000 doctors
It seemed to me that creating  and then having multiple  and  etc would be easier than lots of relational tables linked by keys.
 
What is everyone's opinion on using XML in this way? How easy is it to read/filter/update data store in an XML page like this? Should I just stick to the db?

[cfaussie] Re: Select Boxes

2006-03-26 Thread Tom MacKean
Could you do this...
 
Find the maximum length of the first field and the maximum length of the second, add them together then add (say) three spaces - this is your total number of characters.
 
For each option, work out the length of the first and second fields, then add a varying number of spaces in between up to your character total.
 
You'd have to use a monospace font in your option.
 
Just a thought...
