That is what is happening to me right now...
Well..Zvonko is not commenting here i wonder why ???

:-(
He's probably afraid of the extra load in his mailbox.
Why not give me the points then ??

>:-D
Even then i am worried.... he could post and stay away right ? Anyways i am rewarding him for what he had done right ?

:-(
Well, if he doesn't want the points, you can always give them to me >:-D
I will be very grateful for any donation ;)
jerrith....can you please help ?
changed the question completely please read the first posting of mine. Thanks
Hello Arun,

as you surely noticed I am under water at moment, so I have not noticed your trouble here, sorry.

Generaly is desktop5.dsk a nsf file.
That mean oppening a DOS box and going to c:\LotusR5\Notes
and starting this commands should work:
C:\LotusR5\Notes>dir \LotusR5\domino\*fix*
 Verzeichnis von C:\LotusR5\domino
15.06.2001  03:05            49.152 nfixup.exe
C:\LotusR5\Notes>copy c:\LotusR5\domino\nfixup.exe .
C:\LotusR5\Notes>cd data
C:\LotusR5\Notes\Data>dir desk*
 Verzeichnis von C:\LotusR5\Notes\Data
07.05.2002  20:01         9.175.040 desktop5.DSK
C:\LotusR5\Notes\Data>copy desktop5.DSK desktop5.org
        1 Datei(en) kopiert.
C:\LotusR5\Notes\Data>cd ..
C:\LotusR5\Notes>nfixup desktop5.dsk
The ID file being used is: C:\LotusR5\Notes\Data\paunoski.id
Enter password (press the Esc key to abort):
07.05.2002 21:08:29   Database fixup process started
07.05.2002 21:08:29   Performing consistency check on desktop5.dsk...
07.05.2002 21:08:29   Completed consistency check on desktop5.dsk
07.05.2002 21:08:29   Database fixup process shutdown
C:\LotusR5\Notes>

Or in English words: copy nfixup.exe from your Domino server program directory to Notes program directory. Make a backup of your desktop5.dsk file and run a local fixup against the original dsk file.


Good luck,
zvonko

Sorry Arun, fixup is only a waste of time; it does not help...

How many megabytes is your dsk file?

i know it did not work... its about 16 MB i have all the databases and bookmarks in it.  I dont think I can rebuild manually.  I can but it will take me days...

:-(
Arun
PS: I tried nupdate and updall too...  
Have you tried compacting the desktop?
That used to work in R4 when there were problems. Not sure, just a guess.
nope not yet will try today at office. Thanks.
Well...that too did not work.  I had rebuilt it finding and adding every icon that i had to my workspace.  About two hours or damn work.

I am all set and this question will be rewarded to Zvonko for helping me out with @Replace/@ReplaceSubstring question earlier...

hee hee hee !! We are back on track Bro !

Jerrith thanks for the effort...hope you dont mind this question taking a twist right ?
Boyz !!!
Where are you ? I know Zvo is on vacation!
;-)
Just had a long weekend. (Lots of national hollidays in may over here).
Well, I suppose it's okay for this one time :(
:-)
I am also back in town :-)

Back in Action huh ?
still inactive :-)
You know what ? I slammed my PC on saturday and when i got it back with Win2K the sound card screwedup.  Its along with a modem, and i have to go for a new card.  Till i get a new working soundcard i dont think groove will be installed.

It was fun Formatting the drive !

How was your weekend ?

HP Sucks!
Never buy a HP PC, they're crap :-)
Anyway, I'm running Windows XP Professional at home and it runs like a charm. No hickups with hardware, extremely fast (my PC now boots up in a matter of seconds!).
Well...yesterday was a big day for me...I bought a new sound card for about 20 dollars and came home.  But i was determined not to use the new sound card.

I searched and searched on the net.  Thanks to Google for its powerful search.  Whereever i visit i get the information that HP sucks!

Interestingly i got a chinese site, i did not understand a thing from that.  But they had driver files and i was able to download a file and make my modem work !!!

Aah ! I am one satisfied customer for HP !

;-)
Arun.
PS: My machine is not a good configuration 500 MHz, PIII 256 RAM thats it... It is fast but not upto my expectations.  Anyways i got it over two years back !!!
Well my home machine is a PIII,800 Mhz with 128MB and I tell you with XP it flies like a bat out of hell :-)
(Might have something to do with that Nvidia GForce 2, graphics card where 3D games are concerned).

My current 'drule' machine has a GForce-4 (or is the 5 released ? I can't keep up)
oh boy !

My friend has a new DELL its 1.2 GHz and if i am not wrong it has about 1024 MB RAM and XP ... MAN it flies like anything... Seconds it boots up !

;-)
Okay Zvo...! Sorry to open this again.  I am getting mad.

This is the value for DispDocReaders a list ofcourse:

"Chris R Jones/ITM/DCC/DCX"
"Michael S Kachorek/ITM/DCC/DCX"
"Christoph Hartung/096/DCAG/DCX"
"ITB All Senior Management"

This is the value for DispDocEditors another list:

"ITB/F Senior Management"
"Chris R Jones/ITM/DCC/DCX"
"Michael S Kachorek/ITM/DCC/DCX"
"Richard T Faba/ITM/DCC/DCX"
"Christoph Hartung/096/DCAG/DCX"

Now,
I used your @Replace formula as follows in the first categorized column,

List := @Unique(@Name([Canonicalize]; DispDocReaders : DispDocEditors));
Key := "CN=";
@Trim(@Unique(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");"<--Others-->") ) ) ; ";" ) ) )


My expected Result is three categories:

> <--Others-->
> ITB All Senior Management
> ITB/F Senior Management

But... It has screwedup my whole expectations...Can you please help me out again...

All the categories gets mixed up together to form new categories for example...

> <--Others--> ITB All Senior Management

etc... This is for one value i am giving an example. There are 100's of documents in the view and i dont know how to give a better example.

PLEASE !

Thanks a lot in advance Buddy!

Thanks Bro!
Arun.
PS: As you see I have increased the points just for you :-)
Hey Arun.
Have a look at what's the reason for your formula not giving the result you want.

If you display the result for list you get the following list:

CN=Chris R Jones/OU=ITM/OU=DCC/O=DCX
CN=Michael S Kachorek/OU=ITM/OU=DCC/O=DCX
CN=Christoph Hartung/OU=096/OU=DCAG/O=DCX
ITB All Senior Management
CN=ITB/O=F Senior Management
CN=Richard T Fabal/OU=ITM/OU=DCC/O=DCX
CN=Christoph Hartung/OU=096/OU=DCA/O=DCX

As you see "ITB/F Senior Management" gets interpreted as 'ITB' being the common name and 'F Senior Management' the organization.
This is obviously not what you are looking for.

Let me play around a little, maybe I can find a solution.
Okay, the following formula

List := @Unique(@Name([Canonicalize]; DispDocReaders : DispDocEditors));
Key := "/O=DCX";
Result1:=@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"")+Key;
Result2:=@Trim(@Unique(@Replace(List;Result1;"--Others--")));
Result:=@Name([Abbreviate]; Result2);
Result;

will produce the following result:

--Others--
ITB All Senior Management
ITB/F Senior Management

The source of your problem is the forward slash ("/") in the name of one of your groups. (I suppose these are groups you are referring to). If you replace the / with some other character in all names, your formula will work fine too.
I had to remove the less than and greater than symbols in "<--Others-->" for the @Name function to work properly to return the list as you want it. (The < and > will cause problems in @Name, since these are illegal characters in names I suppose).

So do I get the points now ????
I guess you got it buddy!  But i have to test it at office okay ?  But u dont get the points from this..you will get a separate posting okay Bud ?

This is for my Bro Zvo okay ?

;-)
Arun
not bad JM :-)

I was to slow Arun, but compare this one too:
List := @Unique(@Name([Canonicalize]; DispDocReaders:DispDocEditors));
Key := @Trim(@Left(List;"/OU=")+"/OU="+@Right(List;"/OU="));
" <--Others-->":@Unique(@Name([Abbreviate];@Trim(@Replace(List;Key;""))))



<|:-)



Oh Boyz...!

You are cool....i am at home now and the first thing i will be trying at office is the codes that you sent me.

Personally i would prefer JM's code since he uses the /o=dcx key.

But i definitely will try both the codes and let you guys know.

:-)
Arun.
I could have put it all in one line, but I thought it would be clearer when I split things up. (makes it easier to read)
that was my assumption too: JM's code is more readable :-)

Of course Arun, you should take that one that does the job.

Only for clarification the description to my approach.
The problem in your KEY value was that all names containing a slash start with a "CN=" in Canonicalized form.
That mean also this one: CN=ITB/O=F Senior Management

So my question was how to exclude the one with person names?
JM's approach was to hardcode the persons Organization.
My approach is to say: when more than one slash then it is a person.
When two or more slashes contained in the name, then is after the first slash this string: "/OU="
And finding this string was my key to exclude the person names.

But as I know you Arun, the best way is not the one that make the company independent from your adapt in next reorganization ;-)

Well...Practically Zvo's suggestion created another category called "Not Categorized" And JM's solution was right on target !

Now what ?
Do not tell stories to me Arun :)

If you have the @Trim in my formula, then this absolutely can not be!
" <--Others-->":@Unique(@Name([Abbreviate];@Trim(@Replace(List;Key;""))))

You see?

Trust Me Zvo....I did a cut and paste of both of your formulas in two different views.  And yours had an extra category of not categorized.  And JM's did not.

:-(
Again i was testing on a view of about 120 documents.

Now what ?
Sorry Arun, you are of course right :-)

Here the corrected code:
List := @Unique(@Name([Canonicalize]; DispDocReaders:DispDocEditors));
Key := @Trim(@Left(List;"/OU=")+"/OU="+@Right(List;"/OU="));
Result:=@Unique(@Name([Abbreviate];@Trim(@Replace(List;Key;""))));
@If(Result="";" <--Others-->";" <--Others-->":Result)

The problem was that when in some documents no matches where found, then did the @Trim yeald an empty result list. That was one exception I did not catch.

Sorry that I did not beleaved at once to you. Now you have one free, ok :-)

OK, take simply JM's code.

Here my last try:
List := @Unique(@Name([Canonicalize]; DispDocReaders:DispDocEditors));
Key := @Trim(@Left(List;"/OU=")+"/OU="+@Right(List;"/OU="));
@Unique(@Name([Abbreviate];@Trim(@Replace(List;Key;"<--Others-->"))))

<|:-)

So do I get 55 points for this too?
Moin' JM :-)
Goodmorning to you too :-)
Morning Guys!

:-P
Arun.
Hey Arun,
it's almost lunch time over here :-)
its just 4:45 when i Wokeup. Loooong Day awaiting....

;-)
Oh boy. Is this to avoid traffic jams that you get up that early? Or just because your a net addict?
Hee Hee Hee...One thing is my girlie would be online, other thing i got used to getting up early, and finally i could check my emails and stuff pretty quick in the morning as i dont have any other work.

;-)
PS: I have changed my timing from 3:45 to 4:45 last week.
You definitely qualify as a morning person.
I am more of a night person myself, can't get into bed in the evening and always have trouble getting up in the morning - except on holidays, when morning is noon;-)
Well...it should read noon is morning am i right ?
Depends on how you look at it I guess.
In weekends I get up around noon, so morning is noon and noon is morning ;-)
Haa Haa haa !
Who is on for the new 350 pt biggie ???
Hello Guys!
it's just 50 points here, the other points are in VB, I'm not interested in those ;-)
Arun is talking about DES question.
The VB hotspot is already catched by Heman :-)
oh yea !

But you never know whats behind this 55 right ?

See for example i could increast 5 pts now like this...

:-P
Arun.
Well ask a question here and I'll solve it for you for 350 points. No problemo >:-p
here it comes ! The increase !
This is starting to look like favouritism :-P
Oh yea... i am planning something like this...

For each post by Zvo some points will be increased.
All continuous posts by him will be treated as one post. Meaning,

There should be some comment following Zvo by Jerrith or someone i dont care and the points will be increased.

Let see how far this goes !

;-)
What do I need to do to get a question like this for me too?
Be my Bro !
Hey guys!

I have another question for Zvo!  I have a postopen event.
I have a action button on the form with some codes.

I want to trigger the postopen event after i set a field in the document using this button.

I tried UIDocument.Refresh (i know this wont do that trigger). I relied on the uidoc.Reload() but this too wont do the job.  How do i do it ???

Increasing the points for you buddy !!!

;-)
Arun.
Hello Arun,

you have not stated but I assume you are talking about PostOpen event of the Form, right?

If your PostOpen code is LotusScript than it is easy: simply declare in Form's Global section a new function with the code from your form's PostOpen event. Afterwards you can call this new Sub/Function at form opening time from PostOpen and from the Action button code.
If your PostOpen code are @Commands, then move the code to a new Agent with "RunOnce(@Commands..." setting and call it from PostOpen and from Action formula with this call:
@Command([ToolsRunMacro];"doMyNewAgent")

I know that begging would decrees the points, so it's up to you <|:-)



Well, i thought about this option...but i am kinda nervous to implement this since its an application that was developed by someone and it has got hella lot of references to script libraries and global functions routines and form functions and routines....

If there could be any easy way...

well Can i close and open the document ? That would be an easy option...just a thought.  If i can do that i think my problem will be solved.

:-)
Another 5 increase since you posted something to this question...hee hee hee...!!!
How about this Action code:
Sub Click(Source As Button)
     Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace
     Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument
     Dim doc As NotesDocument
     Dim EditMode As Integer
     Set uidoc = ws.CurrentDocument
     Set doc = uidoc.Document
     EditMode = uidoc.EditMode
     If EditMode Then Call uidoc.Save
     Call uidoc.Close
     Doevents
     Set uidoc = ws.EditDocument(EditMode, doc)
End Sub

<|:-)

Increased the pts for the try buddy!

Let you know how it went okay ?

Two biggies for you today Zvo ! You will be 100k before me. I resign!

;-)
Not with this B and C!!! gradings :(

Nope !  Certainly with an "A" for you buddy. I have an application for you to code for me...  Well its a simple view design. That will increase the points by 200.  Would you like it to be mailed across ?

;-)
Why don't you just post a queston and let everybody participate?
OK, we can make a hybrid way of both methods: describe the problem here and increase the design usability by collaborate email...
Or even better: in Groove shared space :-)



That sounds better. But for now here is an interesting requirement.  I dont think its possible to do but still i want to give a shot.

Whoever gets an answer other than Zvo will be awarded pts separately. For Zvo this question pts will be increased.

Again for the quota this is increased by 5 now for zvo's last comment.

-Arun.
Okay here I go !

I have a sign enabled field in a section. So, the username or the signature is displayed on the section right ?

Now, if i use Actions Forward, the signature field and the signature does not get forwarded.  I know it should not get forwarded but is there a workaround to forward this signed document with the sign to someone ???

Jus Curious !
Arun.
Added 50 pts since Pratigan gave me 50 for Zvo's answer !

Zvo you deserve it buddy!

:-)
Arun
Hello Arun,

the problem with the signatures is that as soon as you resave the document the previous signature is gone. And you have to recreate it with the new recipient address (Forward or MailSend does it for you). The only exception is that signatures in sections with prohibited edit access are preserved. Check this option for you.

Good luck,
zvonko

You know what ?  The request was put in pending for now. I will revisit this issue later but since you have commented something here is your quota of accumulation !

You are doing great buddy !

So far so good....

Do you like this game ?

:-)
Arun.
Hi guys!
WOW ! Quite a long time this question has been active.  Where is Zvonko ?  Dont he want the points to be increased ?  

Heman has stolen his 500pt question and Zvo should come here for sure LOL !!!

:-)
Arun.
Those points might be mine, Hemanth's formula didn't work flawlessly, after a bit of correction work by me, they do however :-)
Well... Congrats buddy!  By the way where is our buddy Zvo ???

;-)
Arun.
Warming up after his sailing vacation I suppose. He is around EE, I've seen him post some comments this week.
yea but i wonder why he is not interested in this question. This is huge I tell you.  Just a big one as he is expecting...

:-)

By the way have anyone had any success in converting @Command([ToolsRunSelectedDocuments]) in LotusScript ???

I have done something tricky.... hee hee hee..
Arun, are you talking about @Command([ToolsRefreshSelectedDocs]) ?

Hi boys!

Sailing was wonderful (but too short :)

This week I am on vacations but at home.
At office I will definitely have more time: Domino died at my Computer Center :(
Next week I am the first two days on Lotus.Workflow education but only as last action in this direction. Afterwards I retire from Lotus platform (and hope to dive in into Groove!!! :)



Does this mean, we'll have to miss your valuable advice here in future ?
Does this mean, we'll have to miss your valuable advice here in future ?
No, it means I will try to pull you over to Groove!

(no chance JM :)

Okay, good :-)
<|;-)

For Zvonkos valuable posts here the pts are increased !
Now to the actual part.  Yes Zvo ToolsRefreshSelectedDocs
you are right.

Any thoughts ?  The computeWithForm dies without doing anything since there are about 17 computed fields one depending on the other.

I have a wierd code right now, the selected documents will have a new value on one field.

These documents will be put on a Shared Folder (private folders are not allowed while putinfolder is used).

While putting in the folder i create a lock document for this folder.

After adding the docs to folder i call another agent that will switch the currentview to the folder. Select all documents and run the ToolsRefreshSelectedDocs and remove all the documents from the folder.  Now, this agent will Return back to the previous view while calling another agent that will delete the lock for the folder.

This works fine But is there a neater solution ???

;-)
Arun.
PS: The lock is first checked if the folder is being used by someone else while a person is using this feature. Hmmm...
Hey Arun, you are really worth your money: nobody understand what this mess is for :-)

The best phrase is: "... a neater solution " :))

LOL

Neater assumes your solution is neat :)

Grrr did i ask about my english ?  okay let me rephrase the question...

is there a better solution ???
Now this one is for your comments !
Hey man, did you not hear my English on Groove! How can you think I make jokes about your English? The only meaning was that your method is really funny; you use side effects instead of a straight way :-)

Look here (tested to work as requested :)
Sub Initialize
  Dim rc As Variant
  rc = Evaluate("@Command([ToolsRefreshSelectedDocs])")
End Sub

Of course has this LotusScript agent to act on: SelectedDocuments

How much points for this ;)

Uuups! No points :)

Testing was wrong; @Command does not work in Evaluate :)

now it gets difficult...
Arun, why does this agent not work for your forms:
Sub Initialize
     Dim session As New NotesSession
     Dim db As NotesDatabase
     Dim dc As NotesDocumentCollection
     Dim doc As NotesDocument
     Dim rc As Variant
     Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
     Set dc = db.UnprocessedDocuments
     Set doc = dc.GetFirstDocument
     While Not (doc Is Nothing)
          rc = doc.ComputeWithForm( False, False )
          Call doc.Save(True, False)
          Set doc = dc.GetNextDocument( doc )    
     Wend
End Sub

Can you send a database to me with such forms?

I tell you there are about 17 dblookup fields one based on the other value....try few dblookups and use computewithform it wont work i bet for sure !

You know what ? I am going to increase the points for something interesting you did by using an @Command inside an Evaluate.....

Damn You!
And Your english was really good bro !

I mean it. I still think i have your recorded voice in my Groove.

You know something ? Since you introduced groove, me and my girlie are grooving daily on it.  Its real cool and it easily gets through the firewall of her company. Thanks to you man....

I will find a nice occasion to increase the points for Getting me Grooving with my Girl....

:-)
Arun.
Hey Fellas !

Where are you ?

;-P
Zvo ! Dont you want to keep this question active and accumulate a big one ?
Tell me that you are interested in my @DbLookup(LDAP) function :)

(and give me 2000 for it! :)

I just got the file moved to my office. I will check and tell you if it works or if it interests me and you deserve so many points !

:-)
But for this comment you get another 5 pts...
<|;-)

Just watch out that Arun doesn't pay you in monthly installments of 5 points, like he did with Agent Mulder once :-)
JM, did you press the Lookup button?

You can get it run on any Notes client having Internet access trough LDAP port 389
Perhaps corporate firewall does not allow this to you.

When you get it one time running then I can give you all other parameters to use other LDAP ports, get authenticated binds for protected corporate attributes, select some records when there are too many, and so on...

I haven't tried it out yet, I'll have a look at it later on today if I find the time.
Have a nice day :-)

Whoa Whoa !!!

Zvo is really bad. He has posted so many comments and as I keep my words... here are 3 times 5 pts duely increased.

Zvo! Dont you see big money here ?

:-P
Arun.
Yes, and he posts again it will cost you another 5 points :-)

OK Arun, this is for 5 points: I got this Lotus.Workflow course as a single student from a genius teacher looking and named like Shakira :-)

Ok, her name was Gaby Chakir, but she was really awesome.

Yesterday I have sent this course book to our repro department and want to ask you whether to send you a copy to your home address.

I'd be interested in a copy too :-)
Not now Zvo !  I will ask you if i need.  Dont spend now without any purpose i know for sure i wont even look at it.
Sorry to be so open....

Here are your 5 pts !

:-)
JM, it seams this week it take to be processed with this course book. Until now my repro department even not received the order.
Should I send you next week the manual to home or to office address?

Doesn't matter. Preferably send it to my home address. I think you've got it from Groove, if not I'll send my snail mail address by email :-)
yea yea whatever all now i gotta do is add 5 pts for Zvo !

And My Dear Brother, one quick question for you !
Do you still think that you will reach 100k before me ?

LOL !

;-P
Arun.
Not when you go on getting help from JM :-)

But for sure when I got your 2000 <|;-)

oh boy you have two options now is it ?  JM wont help me hareafter and i wont give you the 2k  Still wanna bet ?

Look at my points bro !  I hardly have 4k more ! and you have almost 20k !

Please withdraw the challenge buddy.... Or beg me i will let you pass 100k before me...

Again for your comment here is the quota of 5 pts !

:-)
Arun.
Without challenge it is no fun :-)

And only to say it with your words:
To know is to know that to know is not to know and that not to know is to know!

So you never know who of us two first get at 100k :-)

The small word "bet" you brought into play. I do not need to bet, I do know :-)

Now, have you pressed this Lookup button?

Just post a comment so Arun will have to give zvonko another 5 points for this question after his next post :-)
Moin JM :-)

That would only work if Mooney do not come along and do spoil the party :(

JM, have you pressed this Lookup button?

No, no time. I'm working on three projects at the same time at the moment, so it gets a bit hectic at times.
Will make time to test it today, though :-)
No problem, take your time.
Beside this is that button only the decoy to gulp the hook and I get my 2,000 :)



Okay, I just tested it and this is what I get :
<Database Driver>Insufficient user privileges

I've tested this both on my client and through web (for the last I put the dll on the server's program directory). I always get the same result.
So, what's the problem here?

I have signed the database with an administrator userid in my testing environment.
Okey Dokey! The fish gulped the hook :-)

JM, I told you to press the button!

You changed the code and placed some text for LDAP bind into third parameter. This wrong Bind paramater provocate this ERR_DBD_NOT_ALLOWED error.

Or you changed the LDAP host name from Verisign to some host requiring authentication. Then you get the same error.

Have you received the Patrick-response with the default button?

Sorry JM, I just tested my example in my office. I get the same error :)

It seams to be a firewall problem. Let me investigate a second...

Sorry JM, I just tested my example in my office. I get the same error :)

It seams to be a firewall problem. Let me investigate a second...

I didn't change nothing in the code :-p
Is this a beta?
ROTFL
OK, the firewall problem can not be solved easily. Sorry.

Now my only hope is getting 2000 form Arun :)

Arun, have you tested my DLL?

1-0 for Germany at half-time.
Come on, USA, go go go !!!
It gave me the same error

<Database Driver>Insufficient user privileges

Okay now, you have posted 7 comments (8 actually and one got repeated okay) so adding 35 to this one and making the points climb up to 230 !

:-)
Are you happy ???

Try this link and *Grin*

https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/20313866/user-activites-log-history-how-to-view.html
My Bro :-)

I have a nose to smell a rat making thousand questions from a 50 points question :)

But I think this is not your first disaster question :)

Better take a look at this:
http://us.news1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/fifa/afp/20020621/i/1074405431.jpg

You see?

PS: try my ldap example from home. Firewalls are blocking my driver.

I don't think that this was intentional, USA deserved to win, but Oliver Kahn thought otherwise and kept the Germans in the tournament.
I think the Germans have the best goal keeper at the World Cup this year. If it weren't for him, they would surely have been eliminated a lot earlier.

What do you think about the referees? This weekend they just disallowed 2 perfectly valid goals from Spain.
I have not tried your code yet zvo...will try at home though.

And here is your quota of 5 today !

:-)
No activity here @EE for the past 1 week huh ? Pretty boring. Jerrith why dont you make me reach 100k so that i can retire peacefully ?

Hi Zvo-Bro !

;-)
Yeah, there aren't a lot of new questions being posted.
Maybe it's the hollidays coming up or something like that.

Or people are just enjoying the beautiful sunshine in stead of worrying about their notes problems...

It's a very nice summer day here and I am stuck in office again :-(

But this evening I'm going swimming!!
Thats cool....Enjoy your swimming....

The bug with 5.10 regarding attachments has shown its face in yet another application.  All our production servers are upgraded now and we dont have a choice now except waiting for Lotus for a patch or downgrading the server !

:-(
Arun.

Hey Fellas !

Where have you been all these days ? Come on Bro dont you want to increase points for this post ?

:-)
You probably won't believe this, but I've been working ;)
Yeap :)
Another fiver for zvo :-)
Oh yea !  Another 5 is Plussed to this pts...

:-)
This is actually even more fun than your 'monthly installments' to agent Mulder :-)
Has anybody heard from agent Mulder lately? I think he's been abducted by aliens or he's run of with Scully.
Well i dont know anything about him.  I am trying to make a conversation with my Brother here.  And he is not interested in talking to me thats what ended me to do something like this...

Hi Bro :-)
Arun.
Hi Bro,

you make me grinning :)

This is more worth then any points :-)
Hey Thanks Bro!

And dont try to impress me okay ? Only 5 pts at a time okay ?  Here is your 5 !!!!!

;-)
Grinning again :)
Oh no...Oh Boy you are making me *grin* now....

But as promised here is your quota !

;-)
Ha ha ha! LOL
Enjoy JM !
Finally got back to EE after being away for a couple of days, due to problems with the proxy server at work.
He kept saying "Host not found (server failed)" :(
Oh okay... how is it now ? Expected to break at any point or what ? Second days off is on the way....

Two more to go...
I expect to break it at next answer I catch :)

Arun, have you looked at my points in my profile? I am near at 100K :) a lot of 9s in the number :)

And then be prepared for the 500 points supper special ExpertsExchange LotusNotes question!!!

<|;-)



You know what ?  I dont get my pts accumating again. I hate this with EE.  And is it summer special or supper special ?  Again i bet you.... i will be the first person to pass 100k before you !

:-)
And here is your 5+
Hey Buddies ??? Are you checking this link out ???
Dei arivu kettavaney (You Fool) !!!

I am talking about this question link what else ?
I think Zvo is not interested anymore in this is it ?

;-)
We have to learn Tamil :)
Hoezo idioot?
and dutch, and macedonian... :)

oh, I forgot Belgian, and of course Southern drawl :)
Oh yeah, this way we can all talk nonsense and only we will understand :-)
LOL
WOW !!!  3 comments from Zvonko !  Here is your reward buddy....

+15

:-)
Arun
PS: Dont you want to raise this to a 500 ???
...and then does Mooney come along and kills the beast :)

No thanks, it's more funny not to know what the next step is :)
Otherwise it would get boring in short time.


Oh yea you are right... Lets take one step at a time.

The discussion will get interesting only if i start increasing points in a different fashion.

I know Jerrith is a mushroom (Fungi...DAMN Fun - Guy).

So, here after 5 will be increased to you only if Jerrith comments after you.  Otherwise you lose your to get your points okay ?

Here is your 5...

I will write a detailed rules to follow in my next comment.
Zvo comments
JM comments
5+

Zvo Comments
Arun Comments
No points

Zvo Comments
Zvo Comments
Arun Comments
No points

Arun Comments
Jerrith Comments
Zvo Comments
No points

Simple Rule Jerrith should follow Zvo to get Zvo 5 pts.
The only problem with this is I will try to save points by blocking Zvo's comment with mine before Jerrith does. Okay ?

Haa Haa Haa.... So, Now Jerrith has the responsibility to increase the points to you.  Hope he will do a good job.

As I told you he is a Fun Guy....

Lets make it happen okay ?
OK :)

JM, howdy!

;-)


Hey Bro, you are tricking me! You answer before JM and I loose :(

No problem, another 5 for zvo :-)
yeap, come on, next one :)

Oh yeah. Arun's trick didn't work. Another 5 ;-D
Oh Boy...I did not check it...DAMN you both got 10 now....

Shoot !

Alright guys!!! I was in a meeting then.  Anyway, I am out of town for the next 4 days.  Its gonna be a very big occasion for me....
Okay ! Here is the info...

My girlfriend is coming to the US on Sunday.  I have to drive for 11 hrs to receive her at the airport. She does not know i will be there.  She thinks that I will meet her next week on my long weekend.

Wont it be a pleasant surprise for her ?

We have not seen eachother for over 3 years now.  WOW... Think about it. I am busy getting gifts and presents for her.  Dont forget I will be on my Beemer....

I am gonna enjoy life from now ...

:-)
Arun.

I dont know if i added the points.  Let me know guys.
Sorry i did not keep track as i was busy typing the comments....
Forget the points Arun, you have now to care about more important details.

Keep the ears upright Bro!

Oh yea before JM posts a comment here is mine.

You never commented anything about me going for my girl...

Are you jealous ??? LOL !!!

:-P
Hey, what do you think is meant with "your ears"? :)

^..^

And yet another commont of zvonko is followed by JM.
Congratulations on finally getting your girlfriend over to the states.
I hope you have a wonderful time together.
Zvonko and I will keep up the chat here, so when you get back you can immediately increase the points up to 500 to celebrate your reunion :-)
P.S.: Will you send us a picture of your girlfriend?
Yes, Yes, Yes!!!
And another one for 10 extra points now :^)
We're allready up to 290 :-D
Perhaps we stress him too much and his girlfriend is disappointed at the end :)

Well, that would be his problem, right?
295
Yea 295 right !!!

That was good going guys!  Didn't you guys see my girlFriends picture ?

I will send it once i comeback okay ?
I saw only this german girl picture. Is it she?

I though you as an correct Tamil would get one from your home town :)

Dying with curiosity already :-)
(300 and counting).
Now Arun's gone, we can chat and get the amount of comments up so he needs to raise the points up to 500, hi hi.
Oops!  Sorry guys I am back in town to see your business...
hee hee hee !!!

300  is on its way...Good work guys..

:-)
Shi...t,

I was not looking for this, now is the Interrupter back...



Oh yea !!!

Bro ! you lost another 5 here LOL !!!

;-)
I will break this chain as often as possible until My Moonie comes for Zvo's rescue.... (Hi JM!)
Go and look for your girly instead waiting for Moonie :)

Yes, and give zvo another fiver :-)
How is your girl?
Dammit !!! I just missed to save 5 points.

Here it is...Grrr....

My girl is simply awesome. Even after 3 years she is still the same.  No change.  It was a highly romantic welcome by me.  And she was thrilled excited.

All the 16 hours i spent with her was filled with Romance...Romance...Romance...and nothing but Romance... WOW it was simply great.  And those moments wont be forgotten...

:-)
For this special occasion I give 5 more to my brother... so its 10+ on this comment...hobout that ?

This is real Romance... :)

But you wont get a +5 for this comment sorry bro !

I just blocked you from adding another 5 hee hee hee....
Well, well. And now she's gone again or is she here to stay?
She will be in Washington DC for atleast next 3 months. We will be meeting as often as possible.  Day after tomorrow she will be visiting me here in detroit.  Well a 14 hour jouney for her one way. DAMN !  But its good atleast to be this closer right ?

Where is our Bro ?
Hi Guys!
I think he's on vacation or something. It's quite hot in Germany I hear :-) (above 30° Celcius in some parts of the country!)
Not in my part :(

Hi boys, I was simply busy.

Does this count also 5 points :)
No, but this one will :-)
Hey, I won second price in my client's company poll for the "Tour The France" for yesterday's Stage.
Great! ...how much was it? :)

just 5 buddy !
2.7 EUR
Not really the big money, but hey it's a start :-)
The game is like this:
You put together your own team of 12 riders and they collect points for every stage. Per stage the first 5 teams are awarded.
At the end of the Tour all points are added up together and all riders of your team are awarded points according to their final ranking.
The first twenty teams are awarded in the final.

You pay 5 EUR per team you inscribe and the entrance fees are then divided among the winners.
Damn, missed it by 1 minute :)
I am a watchdog buddy !  Its my points that i am guarding right ? I should be awake always....
Well, if zvonko commented in between my last and this, you probably wouldn't have noticed :-)
I know he is lazy. But he needs points though.  He is confused on what to do to me to get the points....

LOL!
Hey Bro, just yesterday I denied to take 500 points on JavaScript side :)
Sometimes it's fun to steal fifty and sometime it's greater job to show you are not a points junky :)

But one thing is true: I am extremely lazy :(

See I told you that i am a watchdog for this question.

Before JM could submit let me do it...haa haa haa ....
Yes!  I too am not interested in picking questions right now.  I have some other priorities.  I think I may retire even before getting to that 100K....  But still love to talk to you guys here at EE with some crappy questions like this sharing memorable moments and stuff....

Have a wonderful weekend guys!
You too Bro!

Thanks!

;-)
Good morning to y'all.
'moning :)
Our watchdog must still be asleep :)
give him another five :)

Here they are, that makes 10 :-)
YES, and here for the next five! :)

(wake up little Arun, wake up :)

And we're up to 15, sleepy head :-)
If I didn't have to do real work we could do it to 500 :)

Yes, same here. Hey we're allready up to 335 now :-)
Damn !

I will see from now how it goes up. I wokeup a little bit late since my girlfriend was here for the weekend to spend with me.

:-)

I am happy to increase it to 335 anyways....
Goodmorning Arun,
Ha ha, she can stay over any time if we can sneak in a few extra comments every time she come s over :-)

Nope...thats not gonna happen for the next couple of weeks buddy...

That was a memorable weekend that we spent.

:-)
Good Morning Guys!
Tell me more :)

Yes, share with us lonely computer nerds. (Ha ha another five)
Damn !  This is bad gaming... EE sends mail at a wierd schedule....  And i was checking of my girl had reached her place safely and you guys made use of that time...

:-(

Here is your 5....
You always need to be alert >:-)
Just be glad sno isn't in on the plot, then we'd have double the fun LOL
Yea ! You are right.... He will promptly be online to break EE as we did once. It was fun though.

By the way why isn't he logging in to EE nowadays ?
Don't know. I'd like to see him get up one spot in the EE Top-15. Then we could say we hold all 6 first positions with 6 different expert friends (I know zvo know holds two spaces in top-15)
He will eventually overtake me !  And so you will...

:-)

Good Job Gentlemen...
Good Morning Guys ! What is this Zvo ???

You dont want the points or what ?  You are in 90's already and just 10k to go to reach 100k right ?  Come on buddy... you got some points here....

:-)
Okay linking back to Zvo's answer... Damn...

https://www.experts-exchange.com/jsp/qManageQuestion.jsp?ta=lotusnotes&qid=20243127

Well, i used this in a view column formula.  If there is multiple values then it works fine. If there is a single value then it shows it as "Not Categorized"  which I dont want to see.  Sorry guys to open this up again.  Whoever gets me the answer will be rewarded.

I tried with a selection formula checking for one element and that messedup my entire view.

Here is what i want.  I have a view with documents.  One field value starts with "NR".  This "NR" thing could be a part of list or a single value.  This field is the first field in the view column categorized.

Now, If there is a list that contains "NR" then I dont want the "NR" to show.  If there is only one value with "NR" then I dont want the document in the view.

Hope my requirement is clear now.  Hmm after a long time the users have found this bug and caught me yesterday !!!!

I need a fix for it ASAP.  The sooner the more points okay guys ???

Thanks a Lot for your effort buddies.

Hi Bro !!!
Hi JM !!!

:-)
Arun.
Here it comes... :)

Put this into view's selection formula:
SELECT !@Begins(yourFieldName;"NR")

@zvonko

Hello :-)
Another 5 points extra
Yeap!

And again. Hi hi :-)
Arun seams to be under pressure. Let him get breath again :)

Damn !

:-)

Let me try view selection. And get back to you....
Here is your 10... If this works then I will add bonus pts for Zvo. Is that okay with you Jerrith ?
Hmm i forgot to add the pts anyways....
Since I didn't even look at your problem, sure that's fine by me :-)
...but we could increase the points :)

'moning JM!

you know what ?
i wont leave you guys to do that they are my points....
Again...your selection does not work buddy, only if there is a single element with whose value begins with NR then that document should be excluded.

If there is multi-values with all NR's then all the documents should be excluded.

If the values contain other than NR then the document should show up.

;-)
Okay, here's a guess:
SELECT !@Contains(@UpperCase(yourFieldName);"NR")

Since the formula is case sensitive, I added the @UpperCase to be sure to compare uppercase with uppercase and I used @Contains in stead of @Begins.

I suppose "NR" will not show up elsewhere in the field except for at the beginning, so @Contains should work fine.
have 3 documents in your test.

1. Field value NR-001
2. Field Value NR-002;NR-003
3. Field Value NR-004;SXTK-001

I want to show only the last document and not the first two.

do you see my requirement now ?  I still wonder if your formula will work.  I am at home and let me check it @Office and get back okay ?

Ok Arun, take this...
For view selection formula use this:
List:=@UpperCase(yourFieldName);
Key:="NR";
SELECT @Trim(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");"")))))!=""

and for the column formula use this:
List:=@UpperCase(yourFieldName);
Key:="NR";
@Unique(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");"")))))

Good luck,
zvonko


Hello Zvo, another 5 for you :-)
Thanks :)

Hey Arun,
in my tests I see only this document nr#3 with value: NR-004;SXTK-001

The other two docs (or any empty categories) are not listed.

You're welcome.
I guess this is another 5 ;-)
Good good...
let me get this thing tested.  Thanks by the way and here is your additional 10

If this code works then you receive a bonus okay ?
Damnit....before i could come out of the shower youguys stole 10 pts from me.

Now i have to drive to the office and i dont know how much you are going to take...

:-(
I was out for lunch, so you where lucky :)

Not that lucky, he's still on the road.
Here's another 5 :)
YES, and here the next five (interim bonus points :)

Yep. Here you go...
My formula is no good, as no documents with a NR category will appear this way.
Grrr another 10 is it ?  Give me sometime to check the code buddies....
AWESOME ZVO !

You are simply Great !  It worked a Treat for me !

:-)
Added 10 to this.... for the previous comments.

Now Zvo has the previlege to demand how many points he needs for the @REplace solution.  

I know he wont drain me though...

:-)
Ok, let's see: last time I got for this only fifty (thanks to Mooney :) and together with overdue interest and this one... I would say JM decides for us, ok?

Here's at least 5 for asking :-)
If you're not in a hurry, let's just keep this up until this question maxes out at 500 :-D
HEY !!!

I cannot give you pts cause the code is incomplete....

If i dont have a field value then I should display "Not Assigned" in the column

And these documents should be selected in the view too !

Sorry guys you get only 5 for now.

DAMN! I already moved this into production. I am backing it out until I get this resolved okay ?

Thanks again Guys!  Note the + 5


JM's suggestion is good.  But i need a proper solution until I decide to award points.  Hurry up guys!

;-P

Have you seen a lazier goose than me ?

By the way i have gotten the pictures scanned.  Give both your email ids i will send couple of them to you guys!
Hey Bro, why do you not do it yoursels? :-)

Here is the view SELECT formula:
List:=@UpperCase(yourFieldName);
Key:="NR";
SELECT (@Trim(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");"")))))!="") | @IsUnavailable(yourFieldName)

and here the column formula:
List:=@UpperCase(yourFieldName);
Key:="NR";
@If(@IsUnavailable(yourFieldName);"Not Assigned";
@Unique(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");""))))))

And this is surely more worth then 5 points :)



Hey you already have our email addresses. Or send them to the Crazy People newsgroup you created :-)
Or if you have this field "yourFieldName" present in documents but empty, then use this for SELECT:
List:=@UpperCase(yourFieldName);
Key:="NR";
SELECT (@Trim(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");"")))))!="") | (yourFieldName="")

and this for column formula:
List:=@UpperCase(yourFieldName);
Key:="NR";
@If(yourFieldName="";"Not Assigned";
@Unique(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");""))))))


I am curious about new variation you invent in your requirement :)

haha another fiver :)
We broke EE Finally !

:-)

Good job Zvonko !

Thats a FIX....I took the second option of yours as the field was there and was empty.
And you really do not have more variations, such as let it blink or something similar... :)
Man, this page is starting to take forever to load :-)
Have another five on me, zvo!!
Thanks :)

but now I have to leave for home.

See you.

Oh Good.... You earned a lot today.  Thanks to JM not to post another comment to add another 5 to this !
Take another 5 for the last one !
Goodmorning.
I'd left for home before zvonko posted his last comment, otherwise I would have surely added another comment :-p
Good that you left early.....

:-)
Is this the question that has the most number of comments ?
I remember there was once a question of you where I posted a hundred comments, so I don't think so.
Yea !  i remember doing it for 200th comment !  But now the graphics have increased and the performance have gone down @EE....
Hi guys!

There is a new problem with the selection criteria. This selection selects all the available forms in the database.  I cannot filter it by adding only one specific form.

Zvonko! I need you to rescue me this time.  I wonder why the specific form selection should not work along with this formula.  Can anyone of you guys try with multiple forms and this selection formula ???

These users are real cool, they got the bug and came right to me and asked me to fix this one little thing.  I thought this is easy but it wont get rid of the other 5 forms in the database.

DAMN !

:-(
Arun.

PLEASE HELP !!! I need this change to go before the end of the day....
I got it I got it.....

Here is the modified selection formula...

List:=@If(Form = "Estimations" ; @UpperCase(ReqNo); "");
Key:=@If(Form = "Estimations" ; "NR" ; "");
SELECT (Form = "Estimations" & (@Trim(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(List;Key+@ReplaceSubstring(List;Key;"");"")))))!="") | (@IsAvailable(ReqNo) & ReqNo=""))
What was the formula you were using at the moment for the selection ?
Just put it like this :
(your formula so far) & (Form="Form To Use")
That ought to do it, I guess.
Well, you're supposing was posted while the question was loading I guess :-)
Instead of the two first @If's better use one extra pair of braces, like here:
SELECT
(Form = "Estimations") & (
 (@Trim(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(ReqNo;"NR"+@ReplaceSubstring(ReqNo;"NR";"");"")))))!="") |
 (ReqNo="")
)


And the column formula is then:
@Unique(@Explode(@Trim(@Implode(@Replace(ReqNo;"NR"+@ReplaceSubstring(ReqNo;"NR";"");"")))))


I also assume this @UpperCase is not really relevant, right?
Or do you really like to exclude Nr-001 :)

The whole thing is not good, because of this hard coded "NR" in the view. I prefer to do such computations in documents on create or change and not every time in the view.

Well, uppercase is not really needed. These values come from sybase system and they are always uppercase.

Anyways, I did not lose any points eventhough you guys posted 3 comments.

I have moved the changes to production and the users are happy about it.

Next time when i move something to production i will make these suggested changes to the selection and the column.

Thanks guys!

Have a wonderful weekend !
-Arun.
Thanks Arun, enjoy your weekend too.
Great !
Hi all!

I will be in holidays from now until the end of August.

I go to Adria and to Bavarian Forest.

Nice time to you all,
zvonko

Have a nice holliday and another five on me as a vacation present :-)
Grrr.... I give 5 to you buddy !


Have a wonderful vacation.  Are you going on a one month vacation ? That should be real cool...Enjoy your days.

Dont think of notes or points okay ? They will all be here for you we will keep this question active until you come okay ?

:-)
Arun.
Oops! Forgot to add Pts....
My vacation already ended :)

I am back at office for next five days and add this five days as first week in September. But today, tomorrow and the first three days of next week I am working.

Basically I had to came back because of a caching problem of my chiefs Notes client :)
But it is matching to my needs: I was not going to Adria. I will go there after sending my little girl to America. She is going for five weeks to San Martin, California.

So JM, let's increase the points :)

Yes, nothing like to start of with an increase of points.
Thanks :)

...and because it was so easy just another five...

I guess Arun must be sleeping behind his desk :-)
This called: ArunAtWork :-)

Damn !

You know what ? There was not email notifiction from this question at all....

This was my casual entry to this question to wake u guys but you have surprised me for sure.  Take your 10 points and lets continue the game okay ?

So, now long does it take for you guys to load this question ???

;-)
Arun
Damn!

Not again...! I forgot to add the points.. Here it goes for you Zvonko !

:-P
And by the way Zvonko !!!

405 times 4 dont you think this is big money for you ???

When shall we close this by the way ?  Shall we try to hit EE's limits on this too ???

And.... Good to have your chiefs Notes crash so that you are here with us hee hee hee...

:-)
It's taking way too long to load already :-)
Yea Yea I know.... Thats more fun in Zvonko getting his points !

He thinks that getting a 500*4 is a piece of cake but it aint !!!!

Again it should involve some fun and patience like this one right ?

LOL !

-Arun
PS: I dont think Zvo will ever comment on this question again.  He is back from his vacation and not yet commented anything...  19 more back to back comments and he gets his max 500.... will he be able to acheive this ?
Okay here comes some fun !

And my favorite:
"To know is to know that to know is not to know and that not to know is to know!"


So, I don't know?!? :)



That was a good one Zvo ! Jerrith missed to give you a Fiver as usual...Hmmm what to do I am here to save it.

:-)
As long as we two enjoy it... :-)

Let's see tomorrow.

So long,
zvonko

Its tomorrow already and i just came from the movie "Signs" by Night Shyamalan.  Damnit ! I expected too much from him after hearing that he is the next speilberg.

He screwed all my expectations though...anyways....

:-)
Arun.
Goodmorning :-)
Oh boy !

This question takes forever to load.  What shall we do ?
Will Zvo ever get into this to post a comment or what ?
Finally Arun suffers also the load time :)

$405 X 4 would be enough for me :)

Before Jerrith could increase it by another fiver.... Let me block it.

How is it ?  Even if it takes a hellalot of time, I will login in and give you points.  My ultimate goal is to give you a 500*4 with some fun too.

What do you say Jerrith ?
Sorry, no time to 'play' today.
I am only additional two days in the office.
At the end of the week I go to computer Diaspora until 9th of September, but like JM today I am today a bad player :(
But here we got an extra 5, anyway :-)
Damn! by the time I got here loaded 5 of my points are gone !  

Anyways, Have Fun Zvo.  This question will wait for you to return.  Hope I dont get to that 100k mark by then right ?

;-P
I know how to block you from getting 100K: go on posting here, EE crashes and you have to wait they repair it and I come back :)

There you go for the rest of 85 !  Why are you guys so very silent ???  Come on lets make it happen.

Shall we ?
Are we Ready to get the ball rolling for some more time ?
OK, here the description of Applet handling for my buddy JM :-)

I embedded the applets in Pages by selecting in menu:
Create->Java Applet

And selected this:
ImportAnAppletFromFile: checked
BaseDirectory: W:\LotusR5\Notes\data\ee\news\NewsTicker\
BaseClassNeme: com.objectplanet.NewsTicker.jar

When I select this, the Designer internal resolve the jar and place the class name himself:
com.objectplanet.NewsTicker.class

After clicking OK you have to scroll in the left Object explorer view to the Applet to adjust the properties.
Clicking on this header line in object explorer and opening the Property dialog allow you to set Applet dimensions and other attributes.
For example, there is the place to set: 100% width and 24 pix height.

The parameters are best set by cut & paste feature. Edit in notepad this applet parameters:
<param name=header value="NewsTicker">
<param name=newsURL value="news.xml">


and paste it afterwards by clicking on parameter paste button.

To import the xml file I used your trick JM :)
Goto image resources, enter an asterisk and select this xml file. That works really great!

To set this page as database launch page is not worth describing to an expert (except the fact that to open in Notes client you have to embed this page into an one-frame frameset.

What do you say :-)


Wow !

Trying to hit two 500's at the sametime Zvo ??? Nice try but i am here to block each fiver from you guys as long as I could.  Eventually you may get 500*4 from Jerrith before this question is closed.

By the way where is the cleanup volunteer or our Moonie ?

:-)
Arun.
Now I do not get notifications from EE :(
They are gone with the Moonie :)

Tomorrow I am at airport and underway.
But on Friday I look for my points!

Oh yea !

The email stoppage has really given me enough time to block another fiver from Jerrith.  Thanks to EE for not emailing.

Haa Haa Haa....

Hello Jerrith dont you want to help your friend out of this and get him some good points?

;-)
Arun.
You can thank EE for screwing up the mails, or you can bet your ass zvo would have gotten a few extra points here :-)
Anyway, I had to give the points to Hemantha for my question, he provided me with a perfect solution. (And a lot quicker than I had expected too)
This was ok for me JM :-)
Better let's get five here :)
Yep, here they are.
YES!

Let's bring this to an end.

Sure, we're at 425 now
ok, give me another five :)
Yes!

Hey JM, your line at office is to fast for my home ISDN line :-)

Well, I'm connected directly with a 100Mb ethernet connection. So that would be normal :-)
So, let's add another five :)
Yes, as long as Arun's not paying attention, we will get this up :-)
Very well :)

and please another five.

Here you go.
Arun's gonna curse :-)
445 so far, is this correct?
At least Arun has not to count the points :-)

Give me another five, please.
DAMn you !!! its 445 already... I dont have an internet hookedup at home and this is from my office.  You guys are on the same timezone and draining me out.

But thats okay its all fun right ?

Zvo missed a biggie from Jerrith....  But he wont miss this 500 for sure....

:-)

Good going guys here is your 445

Sorry Buddy ! I am back in action to block your craps...

You cannot do it for the next 8 hours for sure okay ?

Take it easy guys!

And after 8 hours i will be driving for 10 hours to meet my girl friend in washington DC and you guys will have another open period where you can boost this upto the maximum....

Hey Jerrith !  Did you see that Zvo is getting greedier and asking for another fiver from you ???

;-P
Its fun guys....
Zvo, you will have to send me an email notification when you post, so we can be quicker than EE and arun won't know what hit him.
I'll be on vacation next week, so I probably won't be checking in on EE all week.
Finally :0)

How could I solve JM's problem when I even did not understood the requirements :-)

But just now I am making this Access synchro and get so easy points :-)
Oh good, so you'll be busy this weekend and we can bomb this question during the weekend.
Uh Oh!!!

I am early to the office.  I guess to stop you guys.

NOW, EE is sending emails promptly and get back to work !

:-)
Arun.
haha got in another one :-)
**** !

My connection is so poor that by the time my post went through you got another fiver !

My Ass !

:-|
Arun.
This is pure ****.... I am on a T1 connection and this is not working out for me.  You guys have some code or special application to post your responses or what ? I login to EE and do the postings.....

:-(

I am losing my points for sure i guess today we have to call it a day if my connection is so lousy....
LOL. Come on Zvo, post and let's see if we can time this right :-)
Only ten more to go before we get to 500!!
okay guys i dont want to wait until you post some comment i just want to chase you guys for today so i am gonna post continuous comments if you dont mind okay ?

hee hee hee !
I've got my comment on standby. All I need to do is click submit :-)
As(s) I told you i am gonna post continuous comments today....you may succeed as you have a higher connection speed than me...

Good Luck and lets see who wins today.
I've got my comment on standby. All I need to do is click submit :-)
Lets see it buddy Zvonko is really upset now, The moment he saw me calling him a greedy fellow.....

Haa Haa Haa....
Or maybe I'll just hit my refresh button.
All I need is for zvo to get a comment in now and then :-)
Shall we take a break for today or do you want to continue this game ???
I'll just hit refresh when I hear a beep from my mail program (notes)
No no this is not a fair game then... Sorry I dont want to see the same comments again and again.

That will be called a foul and no points will be added.

Okay Zvo ???
I'll just hit refresh when I hear a beep from my mail program (notes)
Okay, then I'll have to think of something every time I hear a beep :-)
I told you already that wont work for Zvonko or his subordinate YOU !!!

:-)
Zvonko realised that today he cannot accumulate more points in this question.... he is not even looking at it.
May be zvo is waiting for me to giveup my postings and get in suddenly to steal some pts...
Fine, let's take it :-)
Okay here we go.
And immediately another one...
and one more...
I bundled my channels, but I think now is not the line speed the problem.
Finally got the question loaded again. Here's another 5
Nope, I think now the problem is with the EE server.
Ok, but now we make it touch down!

Do not count, fire!
EE's mails are staying behind again :(
You added 10 now....

DAMN !  I am getting ready for a meeting will catch you after 2 hours...

Hope EE goes down for another 3 days... hee hee hee !
Man this question is taking forever to load now.
Nearly takes 3 minutes on a LAN connection !!
I do not see you Arun,
only hear you on email notification :)
another 5.... Do you want to finish this off today itself Zvo ???

:-(
I keep fire!!!
Good I was right there to stop jerrith to give Zvo another fiver !
It's called in American a "Homerun" :)
Oops another blocker from me !!! WOW This is getting funnier now....

EE will be down for sure with this one question alone.
Got another one. finally!
Don't give up Arun :-)

Now I am too slow :(
Oops Jerrith is gone home and i am blocking you quite nicely right ?

This is good.  Next question I will post to make it the busiest of all questions here at EE in lotus notes topic area....

I have an idea already... Every 10th commenting person will be awarded separately with a question.  So this means this question will be active like crazy and every 10th person will be getting points outside of this question.

Interestingly the points will be increasing like crazy.

10th person get 10 pts
20th person will get 15 pts
30th person will get 20 pts..

The more the comments the more the points how is that ???

Wont it be fun ?
Hey, this makes fun :-)
yes, got in another 5 points
Damn it !  you guys managed another 5...i am running to a meeting.  Please do not finish off this question guys please... we will game next week too...okay ???

Ha, that makes for 10 extra now!
**** !!! Again my connection screwed my happiness....
Next week I'm on vacation, so I think we'll just finish it today. What do you say, zvonko?
****! Wrong comment! I sent it before reading your proposal :(

Arun, are you not afraid to get blocked with your account from EE? We are nearly on the border to this. You and I use this platform as IRC but this word Exchange does mean something else :)
okay added only 5 buddy cause i took another 5 off you
I like that new idea too :-)
Now things are getting crazier... you are a mess and so am I.... why are you guys crazy ???  Lets give a break for a week okay ?
:-)
I am on vacations until September the 9th.
Today and perhaps tomorrow I am online.
So let us bring this to an end. It's getting wrong direction, you understand...

Ha, we got him on the run now :-)
LOL
Okay, let's continue our game in little over a week >:-D
We're at 480, only 4 more to go!!
Let's bring this to an end and close this border liner :-)
OK, we are nearly finishing him :Z
Hey, only three to go!

This is definitely 485, have to leave now. Or I'll be too late for my dinner appointment.
Let's finish it tomorrow afternoon. :-)
OK, then I play alone with me...

;-)

Yea !

Play with your "Little Brother" inside your pants... Haa Haa Haa !!!

I wish Sno was here in this discussion though... it would have been more fun.

Anyways, if tomorrow you guys are gonna wind this up then I have no other choice.  I am off to see my girlfriend.

Take it easy guys!  That was a lot of fun ! and it went for over 3 months now right ?  GOOD!

:-)
Arun.
my little Brother asks for your little Sister :-)

So what? Do I get this 500 with an A+ when we finish this?


I'd assume yes.
This nightly comment will get you up to 490 anyway :-)
'moin JM :-)

Now it's to easy to get the last two one :-)

I mean we could go on increasing, so Arun has to ask Moonie to give more then 500. But this would not be a good idea to ask anybody from CommunitySupport to look what we are here doing :-)

Hello, I see Arun still hasn't returned to this question to block your comments.
Maybe he's given up?
I'll check back in later, now I'm working on my oldtimer.
Come on zvo, only one more to go. Or are we waiting for this last one until I get back to the office next Monday?
Just finished downloading and installing the R6 Release Candidate.
At first glance it looks as if most bugs have been solved and this is starting to really look good :-)
Okay guys ! I had to stay one day back at DC since the Jeep Cherokee that i took broke... Damn...!  But twas good to stay with my girlfriend for another day.

And now we are at 495.

One more to go Zvo... and it should be an easy one.  

Just take it buddy...  We will start off with another good one.

:-)
Arun.
Hellooooo !

Are you guys in here or not ?
Just what the hell is going on here gentlemen?  And why wasn't I invited to this party?  Man it would take me a month to read all this horse-crap.  I think you need to start a fresh post... not everybody has blazing fast cable-modem connections like us Arun.

Hey, did you guys notice all the EE changes today?
**** the changes... I could not see your name after the words "Comments From"  Look at the crappy color of the letters and their background ?

Instead of making this colorful changes and look and feel why dont they improve the performance and make questions like these available faster on dialup modems too ?

This has been a 3 month game that was going on between us.

Anyways, Zvonko has one post to be followed by Jerrith to close this question.

I wonder if Zvonko would ever post his final comment....

:-(
Arun.

Welcome to the party Sno...

Welcome to the party Sno...
I noticed they got rid of the featured expert of the week too.  I liked reading that feature even though some of the folks were scary.
Yea I noticed lots of things missing like : "Reload question" now we can see lots of duplicate posts as we used to....  I used that feature quite a bit.

Let me ask you frankly..."Do you like any of the new features of EE ?"

I liked to see only one thing.  The top 15 experts are now right in the middle of the page.  Other than that nothing special...  I dont see any performance improvement too...

Even the links are kinda scattered over the page. I dont know what i am looking for and where i am sometimes.  You know "Return to Topic Area" that is missing too.  Who asked for these changes.  Damn!

:-|
Arun.
Where is Zvonko by the way ?  Or Jerrith ?  Thanks for joining this question Sno... you mean a lot to this questions activity.
Reload this question is available on the top left.  I didn't really notice too much else except things are located in different places.  To return to topic area you click on 'lotus notes' which is just above the 'now get 2500 points' banner.
It will take time to get used to this new feel.....

:-(  I want zvonko and Jerrith to come here and post something for us.

:-)
Arun.

By the way do you know "Baba" ???  Visit http://www.babathemovie.com/  and let me know.
Just checked in today to see how this question was going. I'm still on hollidays and will return on monday.
Must say, at first glance, I don't like this "new and improved" EE.
Just posted a question in community support, because I feel insulted.
The new EE puts Lotus Notes under email!
Really, guys. This is like 2% of what notes can do. That's like comparing a real Ferrari to a toy car.
If anyone feels like commenting, here's a link to the question: https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/20337897/Lotus-Notes-is-not-an-email-program.html
Moin' JM,

let's take the last five :-)

Did you see this Dynamo topic area?
Uh Oh !  Not this time Bro !!!  Yet another comment is needed buddy !
And this last one will never dye!

Dye ???  Oh you mean Die ?  Haa Haa Haa... Oh yea I will try to keep it alive as long as I could.....

;-)
Arun.

By the way where is our Jerrith... the point winner for you ?
my point winner is again out for a dinner :-)

Did you get the email with my opinion about this silly agent loop?

Oh yea ! I got that and I replied to that one too !

Jerrith hopefully wants this question to go on and on for a while.

I want Sno to actively participate in this one until you guys hit the match winner !

:-)
I did not get your reply, but I think now I can ask schmad01 why he does this agent stuff so complicated. I think a simple view categorized correctly could solve his problems for at least his fourth agent. I prefer always letting indexer collect the right documents and not moving again and again some doc objects around.
Ha, finally could get this question to load.
There you go zvonko, the last comment to get you to the 500 point mark.

Congratulations buddy!!
Thanks! Finally!!!

<|:-)

But buddies, who of you is sending me this contract offer by anonymous email as B. Bob :-)

Ok, thanks JM.

I handle it so far as a joke. If something really interesting is produced from this joke, then of course you will get it.
I wonder when Arun is gonna come back and grade this question for you :-)
He is still downloading the 485.584 bytes of this one :-)
WOW !
That was great boyz.  Here is the Max points for a question...

Now Zvo ! Do you remember me saying that these pts are for a big achievement ?  I am going to hold these points for you until that moment.  Sorry buddy....

And try guessing what that big occasion is...  If possible lets keep this thing active until then.

Again, that big moment is not too far off okay ? so, dont you worry...

;-P
Arun.
Oops!

I added 510 pts but it would not allow me to cross 500...

Sorry Zvo ! This is the max you can get out of this question.

:-(
Arun
Hey dudes, I was actually gone camping for 4 days but I'm back... man this question is slow to load.  What the F was that link Arun?  Who the hell is BABA??  That was wierd.
Hey dudes, I was actually gone camping for 4 days but I'm back... man this question is slow to load.  What the F was that link Arun?  Who the hell is BABA??  That was wierd.
Hey Sno, still not familiar with the new EE design :)
Have you tried this:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/Applications/Email/Lotus_Notes/editQuickLinks.jsp

I tried but I am not a KPRO member so I could not get in.
Well, Baba was a Tamil movie that got released on Aug 15th across the world.  The hero is a SuperStar named Rajnikanth.  Popularly known as Rajni.  

You can never see such a fame for any cinema actor.

I am one Hell of his FAN.  My beemer was full of "BABA" Logo stickers and we 8 people wore identical shirts with the sign of the movie and the theatre was full of fun with more crazier people like us.  We went with horns big and small to blow out the theatre.  I shredded a huge bag full of papers and carried it to the theatre to welcome our Rajni on Screen.

The moment Rajni came on screen we 4 people climbed the stage and felt the screen and it was fun.  We danced and shouted like crazy. We had lots of fun at the theatre.

I will send you pictures of that event and you will know how crazy we are for Rajni... he has grown old but still the fame continues....

He is well known for his styles... more to come in your emails...

:-P
Arun.

PS: By the way me and my girlfriend went camping on sunday and she celebrated her birthday at the camp with me.  It was one memorable event. Pictures yet to be developed and mailed.  Lots more to come from me....
OK, then you know this sides:
http://movies.indiainfo.com/tamil/movienews/rajni-baba.html
http://www.easyreachindia.com/rajini50/baba.htm#facts

But something is suspect here: why does the production company call "Lotus International"
Are you BABA?

Well, there is a saint called "Sachidhanandha Swami" who is one of the Gurus for Rajni.  Rajni is a devoted desciple of him.

This guy has Ashrams all over the world including the US and they are called "Lotus"

Some of the funding for this movie and international release rights belong to this ashram hence the name "Lotus International"

Interestingly day before yesterday this guy "Sachidhanandha swamy" died of heart attack and Rajni bought his dead body to Virginia (USA) for the final cremation...

How about that ?

:-)
Arun.
Very interesting stuff... where was this theater, in Detroit?
Yeap!

Usually Tamil movies are screened for two shows only. But BaBa went for 5 shows (Three in Tamil & 2 dubbed in Telugu)

There were two afro-american girls at the theatre, I asked them,

"Have you ever seen any crazy people like us for movies ???"

she goes, "No !!! Not in my life !!!"

I replied her, "This is just 1% of what you see in India !"

And she goes... "WwwwOOOwwwW" !!!

Here in US its only couple 100 audience in india its 1000's .... It was fun guys... you will know when you see my pictures we had REAL Fun...

The movie was not that great... it was just for our SuperStar who came after 3 years !
I just believe Indian people are the one who most the time find a reason to celebrate together. And this is the real life, right Bro? :-)

Superstar or not, I had never heard of him before.
But maybe that's because we never see any Tamil movies in theatres here.

A few thousand going to the same movie at the same time? That must be some huge theatre, or is it shown in open air?

Here most theatres have digital dolby surround sound and only have a few hundred seats.

There's even some smaller theatres where there's likely to be less than 100 seats, which makes for a very intimite movie experience, especially for action features with the digital sound blasting all around you, that makes for some spectacular movie experience!!
Dolby technologies are also available in india.  And they are not much expected when compared to star value.

Sometimes technology hits but mostly its the story + Star value.

This BABA did not have a good story, but the star value made it a massive collection.  It had many political impact in tamilnadu (South India).  People want Rajnikanth to become the chief minister, and the current politicians trying to spoil the superstars image....  This guy is always confusing about entering into politics but gives messages through his movies like he may come into politics or may not.  Thats another expectation when people go to these movies.

Will the superstar enter into politics or not.  Is there an answer in this movie atleast ?

The theatres can accomodate atleast 3 times the volume here.  But the crowd will be waiting for the next two or even three shows before the theatre and to get the tickets.
Its fun being in the crowd you know ?

I have seen people waiting to get the tickets at 4:00 AM where the show timing will be evening/night 6:00 PM Crazy people.... They cannot wait for a few more days.

:-)
If i get some pictures of theatres with crowd i will send it to you guys you can see.




No one is interested in getting into this question is it ?

Come on guys!  Keep this active !

:-)
Arun.
Nothing more to win, thus interest gone :->
uh Oh !  I have an article about BABA sent by my brother.
Take a look at it...

Oru Rasiganin Paarvai...(from a Fans point of view)

 Rajnikanth's much hyped Baba is a total let down even for his die-hard fans! The film lacks mass appeal and looks more like a propaganda movie for the 'Hindutva' brigade. Baba is in the same genre as the mythological  films dished out by the veteran Telugu director Vittalacharya of the  early  70's with ancient amateurish graphics. The
bad news is that even  with make-up (lipstick too!) Rajnikanth looks old and disinterested in the  proceedings. The film lacks a coherent storyline and was obviously  designed to showcase Rajnikanth's superstar
image. However due to lack of  support from his co-artistes and with no narrative the film becomes  sluggish and tedious. His earlier film Padayappa was a big hit as  Rajnikanth's taming of Neelambari was the focus of the film and the  audience loved it. Here the bad-men Aashish
Vidyarthi and Bharat Dabbolkar  are mere cardboard villains who ham it out.

 The film opens when a group of saints come to the house of a childless couple and bless them. Later when the baby (an avatar) is born, they come  once again and name him Baba and predict that he would become famous!  This  baby grows up (Rajnikanth) to be an atheist who is a local goon and a  do-gooder, who raises his voice against injustice and big bullies. Baba  rubs a local politician (Aashish Vidyarthi) and his son the wrong way and  becomes their target. Chamundeswari (Manisha Koirala) is his neighbour,  who falls in love with him. One day Baba is enlightened by a guru, who  takes him to the Himalayas (or heaven!!!),
grants him seven wishes and  sends him back. After coming back, along with his friends he tries to  test  if the magic works by doing silly things like bringing down a kite  from the sky, asking for 10 lakhs etc. Thus he wastes his four wishes, till  his  uncle (M.N.Nambiar) reminds him about his amazing supernatural power  which  God had granted him and later pleads with him to use the rest three  wishes  for a good cause. The villains including the Chief Minister (Bharat Dabbolkar) on hearing this calls Baba and asks him to wish for his government to be in power for the next 30 years! When Baba denies, his
 mother(Sujatha) is attacked and a predictable tedious climax the good triumphs over evil. In the last scene Rajni is shown walking towards the people of Tamilnadu and taking up the responsibility thrust upon him to be  the future leader.

 Rajnikanth as Baba looks aged and jaded. Manisha Koirala looks plump and  artificial as she sleepwalks through the film. Goundamani as Baba's right-hand man can retire as early as possible as his crude comedy is ancient. The others in the cast like Amrish Puri,Sayaji Shinde,
Vijayakumar, Seema, Sanghavi, Delhi Ganesh and Karunas have nothing much to do. Had Ramya Krishnan and a Japanese girl to be a part of the film?

 A.R.Rahman's music does not gel with the 'Hindutva' theme. Chotu Naidu's  camera is terrible. The film has been entirely shot in a single set and  more over the special effects and graphics are very tacky. Suresh Krissna  who had earlier dished out with Rajni classics like Annamalai and Baasha  has taken the audience for a right royal ride!

Verdict: What a Let Down!

:-(
Arun.
So this theater is in Michigan?  Is the movie shown on several screens?  Because most of the theaters I have been too are like Jerrith said with perhaps 300 seats and surround sound.  Now we are seeing new theaters pop up which are called stadium style with each row being much higher than the one in front.
Oh man, I would like to read a comment about BABA from a critical :) point of view.
Here comes another one from John P.  Rajni's image is getting screwed up after all these years.  People are really jealous in how much money he makes out of people... And he has screwed himself of making such a lousy movie.

En iniya Tamil Ullangale,(Dearest Tamil !!!)

           Vanakkam. Hope most of you have seen Rajnikant's latest movie 'Baba'. In an interview earlier this year, Rajni said he did not make any movie in the
last 3 years because he did not get a "good story". If Rajni thinks that Baba story is the "good story" he was waiting for, then it is crystal clear that he does not know the difference between "good" and "bad".

           Rajni says the "maha sakthi who is living in the Himalayas for 2000 years" asked him to make a spiritual movie and propagate the spiritual deeds among
the (Tamil) people. It is apparent if one wonders that how come the same "maha sakthi" did not ask Rajni, not to make crores out of this (spiritual) movie!!! If Rajni had really wanted to sow the spiritual deeds of his guru,
why did he get a special permission from the government of TN to fix the ticket price at the best of theatre owners (on an average 4 times)??? Once again he fulfilled himself by snatching away the crores of rupees from the poor Tamil people and his crazy fans.

           Other than a kalyana mandapam and a school, what has he done for the same Tamils who gave him amazing wealth and the 'Super Star' image that he has
today? Did he ever try to translate the mass support of his fans for the development of our society? Has Rajni proved that he is better than the politicians in TN? When the people of Tamil Nadu was expecting to get a lifting hand from him, he introduced a "2000 year old living God" in a very serious manner and confused the people whose land is already daunted by thousands of Gods and Swami. His recent activities proved beyond doubt that he could do nothing on his own & he is fully dependent on some priests. If Rajni who doesn't have a clear vision and surrendered himself to non existing Gods, got elected to any office in TN, do you think he will be able to act on his own and deliver  his duties in a right way? I am ashamed to say that I was one of the thousands who believed this actor could do something good for our society.

           What you and me can do here? Whenever you talk to your friends and people (in India), let them be aware of the facts about this actor so that they will not be easily "cheated" by this "Modern Businessman"!!!

Please click on the following link to read an excerpt from 'India Today'.   http://www.tamilcinema.com/cinenews2.asp?fname=BBB.htm

Thanks a lot for your time with John P.
Oh man, this get even worse and worser, huh :(
Oh yea !

Just like our question here at Experts-Exchange !  Did you guys notice that today EE's performance is going down ?

Come on guys somebody give me another 2k pts and let me retire !

;-P
No, you have to wait for me to surround you :-)

Why not just answer questions, Arun?
I've earned over 4000 points this month, just answering small questions. I'm sure you can do that too :-)
At this rate in half a year's time, I'll be passed Gus to the #4 spot, and then I can start gunning for you guys :-)
<Grin>
Yes, Yes! Great JM!

You see Arun it is never getting boring here :-)

And I am sure you will look for us from time to time after your "retiring". From time to time is meant: every minute :)
Oh yea pretty much... may be i may stop bugging / begging for points though.

I am leaving to washington DC for the long weekend ahead to spend time with my girlfriend.  Its gonna be a lot fun.  I will be spending about 4 days with her. WOW thrills me everytime i think of it.

Dont reach 100k before I come okay Zvo ?

Thanks!
Arun.
Relax - don't do it
When you want to go to it.
Relax - don't do it
When you want to come.
 
Damn it... !

I was trying to say come back okay ?  

Not cum on Back - are you becoming like Snocross lately ?

LOL!!!

;-P
Arun.
Relax don't do it
when you want to suck to it
Relax don't do it
when you want to cum
when you want to cum

Ha ha ha, I can't belive Zvonko knows that song!
Sno, you still believe I am a monk? I succeeded in making three children :-)

I married late with 27 and I do not believe I have missed something before my marriage :-)

Only from love and thankfulness to him who suffered for my sins I do not betray my wife, if you understand what I mean.

No I knew you were not a monk but I still figured you were like Ned Flanders.  I understand what you mean exactly!
Sno !

My dear friend.... can you comment on my Hero Veerappan in this forum ?

;-)
Arun.
"...he killed his first elephant at age 14.
...
Elephants were not the only ones that Veerappan killed. He killed policemen too, whenever he got a chance -- and it is this that has made him such a dreaded name."

And the picture!  :{
http://www.rediff.com/news/2000/jul/31pic2.jpg

He seems like a hosehead to me...
Anyone that kills animals for sport or money is no hero to me, but just a coward.
Anyone who kills people, no matter for what reason except to save your own life, is no hero either.

He can burn in hell for all I care !

I consider him to be no better than for example Osama Bin Laden and his gang of terrorists.
Okay!

Here is my part on Veerappan.....

YES! He killed elephants for ivory.  How was he able to trade them ?  with the full support of politicians.  When Ivory lost its worth he stopped killing elephants and started cutting down sandalwood trees.

Again with the corrupted politicians support he was able to trade them for weapons and food and money.

Suddenly at one point these guys dont want veerappan to live any longer.  Half were still supporting and half want him dead.  Everything is political back there.  Its not one state affair its two states since the forest where veerappan is hiding is in the border of these two states and they are not in good terms with eachother.  One wants to catch him and the other wants to protect him....

We have problems with Karnataka on water issues. They dont give us water.  This time one of veerappans demand is for karnataka to release water to Tamilnadu.  Why should he place such a demand ?

Last time when he kidnapped the actor, he was charged of having relations with the LTTE....and the Tamilnadu government charged him but did not catch him.

The indian Army came in and spend millions of dollars to catch him but destroyed and raped forests and villagers. Everyone are trying to take advantage of the situation.

One simple question to you guys.... Why would the villagers support Veerappan if he is a murderer ?  Why would they protect him ?  Is it because he gives them money ? NO !  Because he protects them by killing the policemen who come **** the villagers...

Bottomline, veerappan could be compared to osama but on a minor scale.  The government dont want to find him thats all.  May be billions of dollars were earned by him and he has accounts of every deal with every politician.  And these guys are scared that veerappan might let out in public on those deals....

Hmmm... things gets interesting everytime.  Again i will tell you something.  Veerappan will release the ex-minister for sure but no one knows when.  The Army will come and spend millions of dollars but wont find or catch him.  They will leave after 6 months one year.  One year later when there are no talks about Veerappan, he will take couple more guys....

This has been a routine for a while and will remain the same until he grows old and dies in the forest.

Arun.
I understand where Arun is coming from but I tend to agree with Jerrith about killing animals and people... two wrongs do not make one right.
but two lefts do !   :-)

Okay Guys!  It took me 3 minutes to get into this question.  

Lets enroll ourselves in this question to qualify ourselves in our Ideas / Tips / Tricks question.

Who ever posts a comment here in this question after this comment will be valid to post comments on ideas question.

By doing this I recognize our Zvo too !

;-)
Arun.

Actually it depends on how many degrees each turn is.  Technically one left could equal one right if you want to do it that way.

Now, I don't understand why you want us to be posting stuff here to get points in the IDEAS question...
I do not understand also, but if you are asking so...

Here is mine: what a beautiful day! :-)

I have also a question about IDEAS topic. Wouldn’t it be good to have the option that any idea is disqualified if found elsewhere on the net posted in similar fashion? (of course only if dated before published in our collection :)
That mean, only really new ideas are graded!


Here's my subscription, Arun.

Zvonko,
Find tips & tricks on the net are a great resource for any developer, so I don't think those tips should be disqualified. They're just as useful as new tips.
Of course, don't go posting the tips & tricks from the db that Gus sent us, that would be considered cheating.
I was just looking for this old $$ViewTemplateDefault recommendation in Gus's tips and found some tips from "stamp"!  :-)

Is that tip in there too?
Damn, really thought I came up with this one :-)
Just looked in Gus' db. No mention of $$ViewTemplateDefault in there anywhere.
There are a few tips from stamp in there, you're absolutely right :-)
Ok, now it is double-checked :-)

Ok, here I am!
Now what? You don't seriously expect me to read all this?

It took < 4 min. to download. Did not pay too much attention to that: busy reading Q_20344525.
Good example of a case where caching is no use!
I don't think so. Just a lot of BS mostly :-)
Morning JM,

thanks for your joke. It's more a real-world-story then a joke :-)

I wouldn't know, since I'm still single :-)
Oh Boy!

Is this question still active ?  And people able to get in and discuss things ?  Thats amazing....

Poor Crak it takes him 4 minutes to download this question and another 4 minutes to post his comments ??? Anyway he is enrolled in here too !

Some one tell me who gets the first 50 points from me ???
I will offer it outside as a new question okay ?

:-)
Arun.

I was responding to someone elses comment about the loading time. I returned to the question after about 4 minutes. Perhaps it was there in only a few seconds....

On the other hand: from time to time performance seems to reduce to nill. Even the home screen does not always pop up!
EE is going down is it ?  Hey CRAK i really appreciate all your efforts.  I think i should probably reward you with 50 pt for every comment you post here.  This would be an excellent idea since the loading time is reeeeeeeaaaalllllly slow....

Lets do it this way.... whoever posts 5 comments in this question will get a 50 pts LOL !!!

;-P
Arun.
By doing so will a Mod come along and delete my 500 * A+ points :(

Haa Haa Haa !!! I was expecting this comment from Sno...LOL !!!

Where is he ?  Is he trying to get into this question with his usual comments ?

And by the way how soon this question loads for you Zvo ?  I see always you commenting faster than anyone on this question.... you have a sql statement to update this question or what ?

;-P
Arun.
Hey! we are real brothers in mind! I was just thinking about the same option for EE :-)

Hey! We are real brothers in mind! I was just thinking about the same option for EE :-)
We are currently experiencing some technical difficulties :-)
If I counted right is this my fifth comment and you promised me 50 points. So, how do you think giving me this fifty when points for this question are not increasable?

That was because of your repeated comments.....

Tomorrow Sno/Crak and Jerrith will see lots of email from this question and will try to get into this to see what really is here.

And eventually EE will break again !

LOL !

;-)
Arun.
Repeated comments count at least double! :)
Yup!  you are right....  I dont know what to post here.

hmmmm...

A kid was sitting on his lawn with a box of puppies one morning. George Bush was on his morning run, accompanied by some Secret Service workers. Dubya asked the boy what kind of puppies were in the box.
The little boy said, "Republicans."

The President beamed, patted the boy on the head, and said, "Thatta boy!"

A few weeks later Bush was jogging again, this time with Dick Cheney in tow. Bush stopped at the boy's house, winked at Dick and said, "Hey kid, what kind of pupies are in the box?"

The boy said, "Democracts"

Bush looked crushed, saying, "What happened? A few weeks ago they were Republicans!"

The boy said, "Well, the puppies opened their eyes."
Once all the scientists die and go to heaven............

They decide to play hide-n-seek.........

Unfortunately Einstein is the one who has the den...........

He is supposed to count upto 100...and then start searching.....

Everyone starts hiding except Newton.........

Newton just draws a square of 1 meter and stands in it
rite in front of Einstein...........

Einsteins counting......97,98,99.....100........

He opens his eyes and finds Newton standing in front........

Einstein says "Newton's out..Newton's....out....."

Newton denies and says "I am not out........

He claims that he is not Newton......

All the scientists come out and he proves that he is
not newton..........


how.................??????






scroll down.........

































....scroll down......... further..............


















His proof:

Newton says:
I am standing in a square of area 1m square.....

That means I am Newton per meter square......

Hence I am Pascal....since newton per meter square =
Pascal
Hey! Americans are learning SI!
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/units.html


WOW !!!

That will be good for all the immigrants who come to the US and also be good for SNO !!!

LOL !!!

;-P
Arun.
And by the way will Sno Crak and Jerrith will ever get into this question ???

:-(
Well, since you insist, here's a little comment from me :-)
Sure we can!

Great news guys.... figured out yet how many inches fit it one meter?
Hey we americans already use SI.  Yes, 'Sports Illustrated' is a very popular magazine!  I have not been in because EE has been down!  I do not stay up all night like my friend Arun.
Hey Sno-Bro!

I dont do that stuff no more.  I start from the office with the cell phone talking to my girlfriend.  I get home and i continue talking while i have my little drink and a bit of cooking and cleaning.  By the time i finish my dinner at 9:30 i feel very very sleepy.  I dont have time to sit on my puter and post comments on slower questions like this...

I get up at 6:15 on an average get ready by 6:45 and switch ON my phone until i reach my office at 8:15 !

Where do you see time for me to browse and be awake hmm?

Did you know that in hardly a month (leave the weekends since we meet every week and dont use the phone) we have spoken for almost 110 hours !!!!!

VoiceStream sure will go bankrupt with customers like us!

LOL !!!

;-)
Arun.
PS: I have started calling you bro...so, lets get rid of the "Friend" thing.... it reminds me of something else *haa haa haa*
Man I can't believe you are doing so much traveling.  Why don't you guys just move to the same city?  You must be so tired.  How come it takes you so long to get to work?  It takes you an hour and a half?

Have you ever been to Cedar Rapids in Ohio?  We should meet there some time.
As you have noticed I have been abcent for a few months.... This girlfriend of yours.... her name wouldn't be "Lisa" by any chance?
Nope Arun has an Indian girlfriend, I have seen pictures...
We can send you pictures if you want :-)
Modified or original, you can choose ;->
Ok... you got one (not a spam-load) of both Arun and his girlfriend? Haven't seen Arun's face either!

There was a discussion going on where Arun proposed, isn't it?
That's all in the past, his new flame is called 'Rani' and yes we have pictures of both Arun and Rani together.
I don't have them here at work, but at home, so I'll forward them from there :-)
Rani not to be confused with Gus' woman who is Rana.  Arun has chosen a nice 'sno' style haircut now too... Arun is in love and driving hundreds of miles every 2nd weekend to see his girl...about 1/3 of the way across the United States!  Reminds me of when I drove all the way across the country for a girl in college... ahh, memories... there will be baby Arun's soon you will see.
WOW !
I never checked this question for a while and it still active. Good work guys!

Let me answer all of your questions:

Sno-Bro:  I just live 7 miles from work.  All I wanted to tell you is i start on the phone and keep going while i get ready to work.  I dont talk to her while i am at shower.  Otherwise i let her listen to my musical fart and stuff like that...  haa haa haa !!!

And i guess you are mentioning about Cedar point/6 flags.  Yea we could definitely meet one season.  Cedar Rapids is a city with no importance i guess. May be if there is any let me know.

CRAK: Yes! My girlfriends name is "Rani" and we meet every weekend.  She takes a bus and travels for 13-14 hours to see me for saturday and half of sunday.  And about pictures, i have got tonnes of us together. Will send you whenever i find time at home and i dont have any of them at the office right now. Or may be Jerrith would do me a favor in forwarding them to you !

Jerrith : Thanks buddy!

By the way where is Zvo-Bro ?
I'll also forward the southpark version of you two to CRAK :-)
Travel haf the country to see your girl.... yes, that does bring up memories.... nearly a 1.5 hr. drive!
Ha ha ha.... another advantage of this small country!

Please do send one or two photo's of yourselves. Just don't send tons! I'm using a free account with only a 5 MB mailbox.
Arun, actually I'm talking about Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio.  One of the largest amusement parks in American with some of the largest rollercoasters!  Check it out at www.cedarpoint.com

CRAK, wow only 1.5 hours!  It took me 4days to travel across country!
Sno! YES! Myself and my girlfriend are planning for it sometime next summer cause they will be closed for the season pretty soon.  We will definitely plan and make it okay ?
Yep... and we call that long distance out here to!
Sounds good.
what would be a good time for us to meet then ???

:-)
Arun.
Arun, I don't know we'll figure it out in the springtime I suppose.  I'll have a cool camper then too...

CRAK, it takes me 25 minutes just to drive from work to my house.  It takes 5 hours just to get to the top of our state!
what would be a good time for us to meet then ???

:-)
Arun.
Work... that's 30 - 75 minutes (or worse, depending on traffic).
Well work for me is between 45 minutes and 1h15 minutes depending on traffic over a distance of 80km.
45 minutes is in summer when everybody is on vacation, 1h15 minutes is on regular work days when I leave early or late for work. If I try to go there at peek times, it will take me up to two hours or more to get there, so I tend to start early or late, depending on how late I get out of bed :-)
Well, here is an interesting thing from my side.  I was living about 19 miles away from work earlier and its 18 miles of freeway.  I used to reach in 18-25 minutes irrespective of when I start from home.

I moved to a place closer to work 7 miles away and its completely local roads.  If i start at 5:00AM or 9:15AM from home i can reach office in 11-14 minutes.

But, yesterday i started from work at 5:00PM ****in peakest hour (peak hours are between 4:30-5:45) and it took me 50 minutes to reach my apartments.

Mornings too is difficult for me cause it take on an average of 30 minutes.  I hate moving closer.  I thought honestly that i should not have moved from my old place which is far but the travel time is real good.  

Hmmm.. I will get used to it soon i guess...

:-)
Arun.
Arun that is the funny thing about the city... it takes you longer to travel short distances... it's better to be further away on the highway.

Jerrith, man you should move closer... you are wasting a good part of your life sitting in your car!  You might as well live in Los Angeles.
Why should he move to LA if he works in Belgium? I honestly can't see how that would improve his situation....  ;-p
Ha ha very funny!  Good point.
WOW !

That was an excellent one from CRAK.... I Love your sense of humor buddy!

:-)
Just to keep this question active !

Grandmother -- a baby-sitter who doesn't hang around the refrigerator.

Father -- someone who has redeemed the money in his wallet for snapshots.

Mother -- the person who feeds the mouth that bites her.

Child -- a lump bred up in darkness.

Aunt -- the only person who would have made a better mother than your mother.

Uncle -- a relative who only seems to like you when he needs something done for him.

Son -- the result of getting what you thought you wanted.

Daughter -- a person who dad likes because she reminds him why he married his wife, and who mother is afraid of because she reminds her of why her husband married her.

Cousin -- the relative most likely to be responsible for your trouble.

Mother-in-law -- a ready source of all knowledge, especially advice, history, and judgments.

Father-in-law -- the fellow who is now happy to have paid for the wedding because now his wife has another man to harass.
=========================
When I went to college in the 1970's, I heard a lot of words like "data input" and "beta version." They confused me. I wanted desperately to know what people were talking about, what Big Secret resided in the computer industry.

Now that I've worked with computers for the last few years, I've gained an insider's perspective. I decided to share my knowledge with the uninitiated by creating the following brief, handy glossary:

ALPHA: Software undergoes alpha testing as a first step in getting user feedback. Alpha is Latin for "doesn't work."

BETA: Software undergoes beta testing shortly before it's released. Beta is Latin for "still doesn't work."

COMPUTER: Instrument of torture. The first computer was invented by Roger "Duffy" Billingsly, a British scientist. In a plot to overthrow Adolf Hitler, Duffy disguised himself as a German ally and offered his invention as a gift to the surly dictator. The plot worked. On April 8, 1945, Adolf became so enraged at the "Incompatible File Format" error message that he shot himself. The war ended soon after Hitler's death, and Duffy began working for IBM.

CPU: Central propulsion unit. The CPU is the computer's engine. It consists of a hard drive, an interface card and a tiny spinning wheel that's powered by a running rodent - a gerbil if the machine is a 386, a ferret if it's a 486 and a ferret on speed if it's a Pentium.

DEFAULT DIRECTORY: Black hole. Default directory is where all files that you need disappear.

ERROR MESSAGE: Terse, baffling remark used by programmers to place blame on users for the program's shortcomings.

FILE: A document that has been saved with an unidentifiable name. It helps to think of a file as something stored in a file cabinet - except when you try to remove the file, the cabinet gives you an electric shock and tells you the file format is unknown.

HARDWARE: Collective term for any computer-related object that can be kicked or battered.

HELP: The feature that assists in generating more questions. When the help feature is used correctly, users are able to navigate through a series of Help screens and end up where they started from without learning anything.

INPUT/OUTPUT: Information is input from the keyboard as intelligible data and output to the printer as unrecognizable junk.

INTERIM RELEASE: A programmer's feeble attempt at repentance.

MEMORY: Of computer components, the most generous in terms of variety, and the skimpiest in terms of quantity.

PRINTER: A joke in poor taste. A printer consists of three main parts...the case, the jammed paper tray and the blinking red light.

PROGRAMMERS: Computer avengers. Once members of that group of high school nerds who wore tape on their glasses, played Dungeons and Dragons, and memorized Star Trek episodes; now millionaires who create "user-friendly" software to get revenge on whoever gave them noogies.

REFERENCE MANUAL: Object that raises the monitor to eye level. Also used to compensate for that short table leg.

SCHEDULED RELEASE DATE: A carefully calculated date determined by estimating the actual shipping date and subtracting six months from it.

USER-FRIENDLY: Of or pertaining to any feature, device or concept that makes perfect sense to a programmer.

USERS: Collective term for those who stare vacantly at a monitor.

Users are divided into three types: novice, intermediate and expert.

NOVICE USERS. People who are afraid that simply pressing a key might break their computer.

INTERMEDIATE USERS. People who don't know how to fix their computer after they've just pressed a key that broke it.

EXPERT USERS. People who break other people's computers.
How do most men define marriage?

A very expensive way to get your laundry done free.

The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once.

Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends. You order what you want, then when you see what the other fellow has, you wish you had ordered that.

At the cocktail party, one woman said to another, "Aren't you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?" The other replied, "Yes, I am, I married the wrong man."

Man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is finished.

A little boy asked his father, "Daddy, how much does it cost to get married?" And the father replied, "I don't know son, I'm still paying."

Young Son: Is it true, Dad, I heard that in some parts of Africa a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her? Dad: That happens in every country, son.

Then there was a man who said, "I never knew what real happiness was until I got married; and then it was too late."

After a quarrel, a wife said to her husband, "You know, I was a fool when I married you." The husband replied, "Yes, dear, but I was in love and didn't notice."

A man inserted an 'ad' in the classifieds: "Wife wanted". Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine."

When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.

Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.
Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

...a handy subject with many advantages.

1. you don't have to look your best

2. you never have to say "I love you"...promise to mow the lawn... buy flowers/dinner...lie about the size of your hand's arse etc.

3. if you use your other hand it feels like someone else

4. you can use both hands and have and orgy

5. you don't have to promise to call in the morning

6. and as long as you're careful you'll never end up with the wet spot.

7. you can make it last for hours, if you do it a certain way
 
8. you can do it wherever there is a public toilet which has a private cubical (ie supermarket, shopping centre, railway station, on a train, etc, etc)

9. you don't need to make an appointment in advance
it doesn't really make you go blind, not unless your hand slides off the end and you poke yourself in the eye.

Haa Haa Haa !!!

Those were from my jokebook buddy.  Nothing personal hee hee hee....!!!  My girlfriend is fast asleep and i did not know what to do and so started activating this question from my book.

Good to see you are here bro !

Where are the others ?  On monday Sno Crak and JM will have more info to read from this page.

And how many minutes does it take for you to load this question ? Huh ?
5 Stages of Drunkedness ***

Stage 1 - SMART

This is when you suddenly become an expert on every subject in the known Universe. You know you know everything and want to pass on your knowledge to anyone who will listen. At this stage you are always RIGHT. And of course the person you are talking to is very WRONG. This makes for an interesting argument when both parties are SMART.

Stage 2 - GOOD LOOKING

This is when you realize that you are the BEST LOOKING person in the entire bar and that people fancy you. You can go up to a perfect stranger knowing they fancy you and really want to talk to you. Bear in mind that you are still SMART, so you can talk to this person about any subject under the sun.

Stage 3 - RICH

This is when you suddenly become the richest person in the world. You can buy drinks for the entire bar because you have an armored truck full of money parked behind the bar. You can also make bets at this stage, because of course, you are still SMART, so naturally you win all your bets. It doesn't matter how much you bet 'cos you are RICH.

You will also buy drinks for everyone that you fancy, because now you are the BEST LOOKING person in the world.

Stage 4 - BULLET PROOF

You are now ready to pick fights with anyone and everyone especially those with whom you have been betting or arguing. This is because nothing can hurt you. At this point you can also go up to the partners of the people who you fancy and challenge to a battle of wits or money. You have no fear of losing this battle because you are SMART, you are RICH and hell, you're BETTER LOOKING than they are anyway!

Stage 5 - INVISIBLE

This is the Final Stage of Drunkenness. At this point you can do anything because NO ONE CAN SEE YOU. You dance on a table to impress the people who you fancy because the rest of the people in the room cannot see you. You are also invisible to the person who wants to fight you. You can walk through the street singing at the top of your lungs because no one can see or hear you and because you're still SMART you know all the words.
A man named Snocross from Maine was bragging that in his state there is 79 different ways to make mad passionate love.

A gent form Florida listened incredulously. "Why that's amazing. Where I come from there's only one way."

"Just one?", Sno asked. "And which way is that?"

"Well," the Florida gent began, "there's a man and there's a woman--"

"Praise Lord!!", exclaims Sno, "Number 80!"

LOL!!!

Great ones Arun!

Just take care of that beer..... it's better, but not perfect: I've heard that it contains female hormones. Think I posted it before, but can't find it: search is still down!
Let me know if I need to dig up the original scientific publication....

...the accentuation is at the word "scientific" :-)


Silly, but I can only remember to the stage SMART, afterwards :-)

Never feel RICH afterwards.... Wish I was INVISIBLE...
Do you guys think that this question is the one that has brought down EE few times for a few days ???
Alrighty Guys!

That was a wonderful show by all of you and its almost time to award the points !

:-)
This is a big occasion for Zvo-Bro as he will be crossing the 100k mark.  I want to be a part of his 100k pts and thats why I waited all these time.

Hope its worth the wait. Right Bro ???
Hope you liked it Zvo...& Thanks for being a nice Bro !

All guys who have participated in this question, A special BIG Thanks.  I will keep celebrating such things with each one of you guys.... Who is the next person ?

Lets get into the ideas converted to tips and tricks question and discuss there. This question is a dead pig now !  On my DSL it takes me a solid 4-5 minutes to do any operation !

I wonder if anyone will read these stuff anymore....

:-)
Arun.

Thank you very much Bro! :-)

Go and see this new database:
http://free.corefusion.net/Free/LotusExperts/home.nsf

No one will probably ever want to read it, but the funny thing is that once is't enabled again this one should appear in nearly every search!
Or should we add just a few keywords like MAIL JAVASCRIPT, HTML, IMPORT, EXPORT, OLE, SYTLESHEET, WORD, EXCEL etc. just to make sure?
;-))
Nice jokes Arun!  Ok I clicked Zvo's link but can't seem to do anything... I can log on as Arun and that is it.  I guess we can discuss it in the other post.
We sure will... Shall we kill this question by opting out completely ?

Or you guys wanna try the new faster EE with this question ???  Today EE is at its best did you guys notice that ?

:-)
Yup I noticed this question loaded like lightning!  I was initially afraid to click it because last time EE was working until I clicked this link!
Oh yea !  Lets bring it down then.... today evening i will start posting more from home.

:-)
Today is a big day for me. I earned lot of points!
Somewhere round 21:00 CET (=1 hour before this comment) I noticed a performance drop right to NULL
Other than that: yep, it's running smooth and fast! Points are getting in faster too!
Yeap !  I got a couple thousand in the past few days.  Stealing has become faster and easier.

;-)
