Question about scheduling an alarm or alert of some kind that would help me keep focused and on task. This may sound simplistic but I have some focus issues and looking toward ways to keep on track. Searching for an audible solution but there may be other solutions I am not familiar with. I was thinking a beep or .wav or mp3 clip that would remind me to check in on my task list for the day. Back in my day I remember the radio DJ's used to send a message out ....."Turn so you won't burn!".... every half hour of the day. Bottom and top of every hour. So you knew the time and you knew 30 minutes have passed.

I have brand new to me (Samsung Galaxy S6) A spare phone I bought in a deal from AT&T. I know how to create an event and noticed that loaded up my calendar view so it is almost worthless from the number of blocked out time slots. Is there a simple way to do this on this phone or an APP that might be perfect for what I need. I also take a medication to help me focus and other time based events like everyone else does who tries to plan or schedule anything.

Any thoughts or advice appreciated.

I have just started to deploy and learn Microsoft Power Bi. I installed the BI gateway and able to get it connected in the portal.  My question is, how to i make a BI workspace that calls to that data?  DO i need the BI desktop app or can i not create that from the portal?

Why has Adobe Send and Track stopped working in Outlook?

I currently upload finish line pictures from races I time to Google + and share the gallery with race finishers so they can find their picture.  I would like to take that a step further and share each finishers individual picture with them.  I believe Google Vision has the technology to do that...albeit for a cost...by pairing participant bib number with bib in the image.  Is anyone familiar enough with this api to give me some direction as to how to do this?  Also, any idea how this product is priced?

I am currently in a trial with Citrix Sharefile... but find the pricing a bit too much for our company at the moment..   Love the features .. Large File send.. Encryption .. all integrated into Outlook.   In my email signature I have a link for people that need to send me files... etc..etc..     Does anyone know of any other companies that offer this type of service that might not be as expensive?

Cheers

Years ago, I used a program called Managing your money (the DOS version, to give you an idea of how long ago this was). This came out before quicken and had more features than just checkbook management,

One key feature was a reminder list as part of its calendar.  You could put in a recurring or one time event like you can in Outlook now. But also let you set a window for reminder.  So for  a birthday for example, you could set it to 7 days and on a reminder page that came up when you first went into the app but also available at any time, that reminder would show up for 7 days before the birthday. A nice way to let you know what was coming up and give you time to send out a card. Rather what seems to be the case now with Outlook when you get to that day and see it's someone's birthday and rush to get a card out.  Once the birthday passes, that reminder falls off the reminder list till 7 days before the next year's birthday.

Of course, now I see it's important for reminders for clients for tax payments due, etc.

We've grown to suggest clients put in a recurring event starting days before the actual date, then after they deal with the tax payment, they manually move it to the next month, quarter or year as appropriate.

Is there likely some blatantly obvious equivalent in Outlook that I don't know about?  A way to make a single entry (again, using the birthday analogy) that can be recurring but also allow alerts for a selectable amount of time before that will also …

What is the best options for MSP Password Management ?

I've been using calendar software called Visual Calendar Planner, since the mid-90's, to keep track of check-ins and check-outs at my B&B.  The software shows a month at a time, allows creation of recurring events, can be shifted forward or backward with arrows, and I can type in guest's names.  The application is difficult to maintain in the current Windows environment, without using WinXP Mode, so I'm ready to replace it.  I've searched for something comparable, without success.  Please see the screen shot and let me know if you are aware of something comparable.

Hello,

I have a client who has 60 hospital clients throughout the US. They are looking to grow but we want to see what attributes these 60 clients might have in common as compared to all of the other hospitals around the US. We'll have access to all kinds of volume, demographic, and other financial information to use in this comparison. What would be the best tool to have the system try to suggest where there might be a disproportionate amount of hospitals that have xyz characteristic in the 60 existing clients as compared to the rest of the US? I have access to IBM Cognos, Tableau and even a free trial of Watson. I just would rather not go through all 200 characteristics of all potential hospital clients one by one manually in order to stumble into one that might be a key attribute we can use to target other similar clients for sales efforts.

Thanks!

Any suggestions for the best way to search a lot of text readable documents automatically in one go for a single unique key word or sentence.

I am essentially trying to undertake an information discovery for legal purposes  and searching some 50 PDF and Word documents for a set of words or sentence in parenthesise.  

Perhaps a software that I can use to direct it to a particular folder containing all the documents?  It would need to be able to highlight the word or sentence I am looking for, ideally without me having to open each file one by one.  I think Windows search might do something like this, I might need to check.

I am new to this version...


And can not even find how to make a graph...

What am I missing?

I am considering a small mass emailing to promote my new book. But I do not have the technology yet to validate who has opened the email and who has not.

I once use MailGun and found that had a great technology for that kind of validation.

Does anyone have suggestions about what other things are important when validating the response rates from a mass mailing?

I need to track:
- conversion rate of a purchase, based upon the number who saw the email
- I need to know who saw the email so I could consider sending it a second time to those who did not see it the first time

What else?

What tools exist? Free is better.

I am considering Zoho because of its ability to trace whether the email was opened.

Suggestions?
