Is it possible to work with FP7 file using the FileMaker ODBC driver without actually needing to have FileMaker installed?
I can't seem to get it to work unless I have FileMaker open, with the database file opened.
I periodically need to export an FP7 file to somebody who is only willing to accept FP7 files because of "The Process".
No. The only way not to open FileMaker itself is to have the file permanently open on FileMaker server and ODBC from there, but you'll need the most expensive Advanced server for this.
On the other hand FileMaker can import other formats (CSV, TSV, Excel) and has its own XML format, so you can use these formats. (Unless you're sending binary data in container fields, in which case FP7 is the only choice.)

Here is a need for fetching files (word/blob) directly from oracle and show it on browser on edit mode for editing and save it directly on oracle. Using file system is not an option due to security reasons. Please let me know if anyone has done similar earlier. Or if any idea how this can be done.
Can we use jackRabbit and WebDav for this. Using webDAV I am able to open the word file in word from file system:
ms-word:ofe|u|http://url/webdav/Test.docx
But this is opening in word, the need is-
1) Should be able to load directly from oracle database and open in url.
2) Edit it/update it
3) Save it, while save it should directly go to oracle DB.
Can we make any code change in webDAV servlet or any class/api to use oracle to load and save directly.
Any help/suggestion is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
If it works from the filesystem for you, so will it with Oracle. You just need to figure the appropriate persistence manager (see https://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/PersistenceManagerFAQ).

I need to recreate a database in a MongoDB backend environment that's currently in Microsoft Access format. Please note: I am not very familiar with MS Access. When I open up the db in question and click on "External Data" I see options to:
1.) "Import the source data into a new table in the current database" -- I clearly don't want this, and
2.) "Link to the data source by creating a linked table". I don't think I want this either.
I assume what I need is to download a version of this db as a CSV file. From there I can write an ETL to get the data into a mongo collection.
How do I do this from within Access? Is there an option to simply download the data onto my local computer in something like CSV format?
When I open up the db in question and click on "External Data" I see
options to:
You will also se icons with small arrows for export to Excel or text files - which, that latter, is what you are after.
I'm using ClamAV, communicating via a Unix socket a la https://github.com/Elycin/php-clamav/. All working so far.
My app picks up files from a folder. Each file contains RFC822-compliant content (sometimes you see these with extension .eml).
I was going to write code to unpack the .eml file into separate body text and multiple attachment(s). However a quick test showed that if I just write the whole .eml file to the clamd socket, e.g. the EICAR test file as an attachment, clamd scans and reports the "infected" file.
I was wondering if this can be relied upon, i.e. does clamd always unpack and check embedded MIME-part email attachments thoroughly, or did I just "get lucky" with my tests? I don't want to trust to luck.
I think I answered my own question. Documentation https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-faq states
1/ Supports almost all mail file formats
and
6/ Libclamav provides an easy and effective way to add a virus
protection into your software. The library is thread-safe and
transparently recognizes and scans within archives, mail files, MS
Office document files, executables and other special formats.
[Libclamav is used by clamd].
I want to start tracking my FileMaker changes in Subversion but all I have a big binary file with everything. Is there a way to extract the layout and script parts into a text format so that I can see diffs of what was changed?
I'm thinking maybe there's a 3rd party tool for that?
I think the closest thing you're going to find is FileMaker Pro Advanced's Database Design Report, which will export an XML or HTML representation of all of the elements in a FileMaker database. The report will include all of the script steps for a file and all of the position and other information for the layout objects, but depending on the size of your FileMaker system, it may take a while to generate each time.
I use version control for my FileMaker systems but don't bother with diffs, just making sure that I provide adequate comments for my commits.
You should check out FMDiff. It reads the original filemaker files (without needing to generate a DDR) and shows differences between multiple versions of the same file. I've not used it before, but always intended to.
looking for a free sqlite tool, any suggestions? I need a export, import functionality.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I love SQLite manager: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5817
Oddly enough, it's a firefox addon.
MS Excel or Access can be used to browse SQLite data, too
I spent all day looking for a Windows tool to browse/explore contents of SQLite and tested many of the ones listed on http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=ManagementTools . Some I like and will explore further but many I find lacking for they either require install of other frameworks (.Net XXX), are too big, slow browse of big tables, weird interface, (mis)handling of BLOBs, lack of import/export facilities.
I have no issue using SQL from command line but in many occasions i find it useful to examine the data in file browser/spreadsheet fashion (as in MS Excel or Access).
Here is another alternative: if you have either Access or Excel installed on your machine, get ODBC driver and connect to the SQLite DB that way. While MS Office ain't free, for many people it is already installed on the PC.
Important note when connecting from Access: i was getting "Reserved error -7778" when trying to link the SQLite tables in, so i was assuming SQLite ODBC just won't work with MSAccess. Not so, i found after a bit of digging. All one has to do is avoid using File Data Source (File / Get External Data / Link tables... / ODBC - and then instead the "File DS" tab, go to the "Machine DS").
I've used http://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net/ when I need to quickly browse/edit an sqlite database. There's a very long list of other such tools at http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=ManagementTools
SQLMaestro (http://www.sqlmaestro.com/products/sqlite/datawizard/) has a good range of bulk import/export with what looks like over 20 formats (but since I don't need bulk import/export, I haven't tried this program). Oops ... look like i missed the "FREE" part
I'm using the FREE Firefox plugin SQLite Manager (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5817) and it is really handy. It will handle a few import/export formats (CSV, SQL and XML)
SQLiteMan (http://www.sqliteman.com/) can import in half a dozen or so formats. Export doesn't seem obvious. Its free as well.
A few more FREE options (none of which I have tried include)
SQLite Administrator(http://sqliteadmin.orbmu2k.de/)
SQLiteStudio (http://sqlitestudio.one.pl/index.rvt)
I've used the Arca Database Browser with good results, available here: http://xtras.tabuleiro.com/download/arca.htm.
SQLite Maestro sounds like it meets your needs.
Probably
SQLiteMan
is about the best and most well known.
I personally like:
SQLite Administrator
as it's very small and lightweight, but does have it's quirks. However, there's a whole list of SQLite tools (both free, open source and commercial) here:
Commercial and freeware Sqlite tools list
Now i use Lita - SQLite Administration Tool
it's a free applications developed in Adobe Air.
the only thing that disturbs me is that it sorts the columns when you query.
Besides that it does what I want.
