HTML disappears

Submitted by Anonymous on 2009/03/16 17:10
Hi,
Have just started trying out this program - something strange is happening.
 
Previously, if I typed text in the HTML window and moved to another item, the text would automatically get saved.  Now, the text shows in the HTML window title but is not showing in the window.
 
If in options I choose to "save a copy of the HTML/MHT file in the database" then the program functions as expected (but what was previously entered is lost).
 
What confuses me is that previously the option was not ticked and the program functioned as expected.
 
Any ideas?

Will InfoCube Run on Windows 2000?

Submitted by Anonymous on 2009/03/16 11:06
There is already a related thread on this general topic, but it appears to have gone dead.  I hope it is not bad form to start a fresh thread with a new Topic title.
 
I am running Windows 2000 with SP4.  Although I have tested early versions of InfoCube (SQLNotes), I am unable to install your latest release.  I get the error  "RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x5."  Others have reported this same problem.  Apparently, the supplier of the relevant code was to be contacted about a potential resolution.  But I have not learned of any remedy or workaround.  I would like to stay current with the development of InfoCube, as I really need a 21st-century replacement for ECCO, on which I depend heavily.
 
Any ideas on a workaround would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks!

What's wrong w this filter?

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/03/13 08:26
((Pndg) or (FoloUp) or  (DateDue <int(now)+30)) and DateDone is null
 
It's supposed to mean:
 
1. all items w pending boolean = yes
2. all items w foloup boolean = yes
3. all items w assigned DateDue starting from today & going forward for the next 30 days and do not have DateDone assigned to them (i.e. are not completed or are still open)
 
I tried this using combo of regular filter + date filter but I couldn't make that work as it seemed date filter over rides source & plain filter
 
Thanks

File links: queries and plans for future (mine and IQ's!)

Submitted by Tom on 2009/03/12 13:13
thought I'd start a thread about
  • file links
  • situation when the linked files are moved
  • relative paths
  • plan for the future related to this topic 
reason being I'm in the situation where I have to (or think it's best to) reorganise files and folders due to a major restructuring of a job (the details arent important really)
so I have to make a decision about how I proceed.
 
1.   if links are broken by, say, moving a folder, is there a method of changing/correcting links en masse 

General question about how database works

Submitted by jsolka on 2009/03/11 11:35
I was just wondering where items are "really" stored, and in what format (.xml)? I realize that this might be a totally stupid question, but maybe you understand what I mean -- it's  probably about so called back-end, maybe?
This would help me to understand more about software in general and IQ in particular.
Thanks,
Jay

Two simple non-techie suggestions to make IQ more user friendly

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/03/11 11:15
Pierre,
 
1. give tab in focus a color besides bold (user selected color)
2. Each area of IQ where user manipulates data require a particular format so I think it would be helpful to have a user tip to pop up like
 
Enter source as [field] and/or [field]
or
Enter filter as fieldname null or formula (fieldname > int(today) and fieldname <+7)
 
Well, I'm sure you get the idea I'm getting at.
Or it could also refer to a help page or both

Copying items

Submitted by jsolka on 2009/03/11 09:52
I know I asked that question before, but still can't work it the way I'd like to.
This is the problem: I want to copy item in the same grid (with all formats, subitems, etc) in some simple way. I want this copied item to go just below the item that was copied (the original item). Sometimes I need to do it several times -- that's the easiest way for me to work my Proposals grid, because then i can just change only very little , like one cell and I have it all nice and running.
