From arice at mac1.com.au Fri Aug 1 00:12:43 2008 From: arice at mac1.com.au (Adam Rice) Date: Fri Aug 1 00:10:03 2008 Subject: [Maced] Carnival Manager In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <317A24ED-1DFC-44A6-BB32-BF0171499897@mac1.com.au> I hate to disagree with you but Excel is a VERY powerful application and this would be very easy to do. You would create it in a very similar way to how the FileMaker app is done in that you break it out into separate sheets for ease of use. I actually had a big example here except I realised it was too difficult to read in an email and no one would be able to digest it so instead I'll give a summary of my own real world use and hope you can trust that I had a complete solution written out. I used to have to forecast to Apple the number of iPods my previous employer would require each week broken down by store. The retailers would sent me CSV dumps of their stock out of their system in a range of ways and it was pretty much impossible to get them to give you the data in the required format. First task was to use the vertical lookup (VLOOKUP) function of excel to pull out the data I needed in the cells I needed it without spending any time messing with the document. Next step was to insert what we had sold the customers into the document which I got out of our system as a large CSV. A simple VLOOKUP wouldn't work here because the same product code would show up in different customers and a VLOOKUP finds the first occurrence (RELATIONSHIP - pulling data from multiple events into 1 points page) so I would use multiple VLOOKUPs in one cell to firstly find the customer and then find the product IF it existed and do nothing if it didn't. Then I would need to add the stock data in except stock could be in multiple states and it needed to be grouped by state giving me a summary of number of items per product code per state (RELATIONSHIP - what if there is a tie). This is done with a pivot table which takes a large set of date that is not sorted and organises it into a summarised list for you. Then a simple VLOOKUP would pull the data to where I needed it (notice the reoccurring command here) To skip forward to after we had received the iPods I requested for the week, I would then need to share out the stock amongst the customers but there were a range of factors in this such as whether there was enough stock to cover, was the customer on credit hold, did they have a catalogue, where there any other priority shipping agreements (RELATIONSHIP - multiple points systems). Simply having a variables set for each customer such as "Credit Hold: No", "Mass Merchant: Yes" would tell the allocation procedure how to handle the stock and how much to give to the customer. For something like a points system, you would have a sheet that has the points listed out and set some kind of variable for it the same way that FileMaker package does. Collating results is just reporting. The same way the FileMaker system had to have someone program in report styles, you would just a heap of different reports set and could either find them by sheet or use a simple hyperlink to the location of the report. Slightly off-topic, VLOOKUP is one of the best features of Excel and takes it from basic data entry to a statistics management device.

Well we are a tetchy lot. Adam must be after revenge for all the nasty things we said about Apple's upgrade pricing. funny how price and value are rarely linked. Like Jason I reckon it was one of the best $95 dollars we ever spent. Adam I don't think you understand the level of software skills required when compared to the average user in a school, especially a primary school. You could build such a thing in 30 minutes maybe, but noone I work with could. I could build it in FM Pro, but it would take me a while. Yes Excel is very powerful if you know how but we simply don't have access to the training and I don't have the time to learn it from scratch. Obviously the market ain't too big, there isn't much on offer.

It was made quickly and assumes that you are using Leopard and that the folder is kept in your Leopard Downloads folder (~/Downloads). To run the installation, open the Terminal application and type: sudo sh ~/Downloads/phpBB3\ Install/Setup.sh Tasks performed: 1) Stop the web server - if it isn't running this will produce an error you can ignore 2) Creates a bash_profile in your home folder that sets environmental variables - important to know that this will delete your current bash_profile if you have already customised your profile and will not work if you have modified the default shell - if none of that made any sense, it should be quite safe :) 3) Runs a script that downloads MySQL and other required components and installs them in the correct locations. If it asks you which version of Ruby you would like to use, just pick the one that suits your computer. If you are using an intel mac, I believe there is an X86 option. 4) Creates the folder /var/mysql 5) Creates a symbolic link in /var/mysql to /tmp/mysql.sock (I previously found that phpBB was looking for mysql in /var/mysql and it drove me crazy trying to get it to work) 6) Saves a file in your LaunchDaemon so that MySQL is started automatically when you boot 7) Sets the permissions on the LaunchDaemon file 8) Starts MySQL 9) Opens MySQL and installs a database called phpbb 10) Puts the actual phpBB application into the web folder 11) Sets the correct permissions on various files and folders in the phpBB folder 12) Starts the web server Once this has completed (could be running by itself for about half and hour depending on your internet connection) you need to go to your web browser and navigate to http://127.0.0.1/phpBB3 The instructions here are pretty simple in the install section. You can ignore most optional items that it says will not work but just make sure all the compulsory items are okay. The settings for the database on the next page will be: Server host name: localhost Database name: phpBB Database user: root I believe the rest of the settings are just your personal choice. Once all this is done, run the terminal command: sudo chmod 644 /Library/WebServer/Documents/phpBB3/config.php Adam Rice K-12 Education Manager - Brisbane & Sunshine Coast T 07 3914 5344 | F 07 3852 4068 | M 04 3177 6211 A Suite 1, Unit 29, 25 James Street Fortitude Valley, Queensland, 4006 E arice@mac1.com.au | ABN 96 983 779 822 FC 1300 655 088 | W WWW.MAC1.COM.AU [cid:655FBD85-1444-440D-821F-C72A7E103930@domain_not_set.invalid] On 31/07/2008, at 6:54 PM, > wrote: Thanks - do I need anything else, like MySQL, etc - are any of these these commercial programs?

The secret is to stay in a lead lined room (don't ask WHY I was in here all day yesterday) but I noted my battery was nearly completely flat. The ex-Apple tech (not a reseller tech) said "ah, your phone have been trying to acquire a signal and has just kept trying never locking on". So I dropped it back to Airplane mode and the battery drain finished immediately. So if you are in an office block with "zero" signal (or comes and goes) you'll find that the iPhone G3 battery will drain faster than you would hope. A pain if you want to make that important call when you get back into a signal and the phone battery is dead! Regards Q -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

When a mobile polls for nearby tower and doesn't get a response it ramps ups its own signal to full intensity in an effort to elicit some response. If it currently has a signal and notices it is getting weaker it does the same thing. Hammers the battery pretty quick obviously.

The other issue I had was disappearing uploads from the camera. My fault again, the camera date was wrong, so it was archiving them back with the 2006 stuff.

In regards to Leopard, using Spotlight as a calculator may be simple but it was one of my favourite changes. Also, space-bar to "Quick Look" at files saves me waiting for Excel to open when someone catches me off-guard with "how much is [insert product]".

It is a well documented problem; if you search the Apple Discussion Forums you will find plenty of disgruntled customers. There is a knowledge base article on conditioning your battery if you do a search, as well. Often this can make a difference; it involves charging your battery to full capacity and then letting it run down until it shuts down by playing a DVD or similar, then leaving it overnight and recharging again in the morning.
