I can't seem to find anything related to this so hopefully you guys can help me out.
I recently had BI Publisher installed for me by our company IT. Usually i would prefer to do this myself (I'm a software engineer who worked tech support before), but company policy dictates that IT needs to install all company programs.
Anyways in BI Publisher I now have the issue that if i double click on a field i don't get the BI Publisher Properties as I should (Word 2007), instead I get the standard 'text form fields' properties. Is there anyway to fix this without IT getting involved since whenever I give them my laptop I end up being unable to work for quite a while.
Thanks in advance
Make sure your security settings have macros enabled.
If you had any older versions of BI Publisher desktop, that were not removed before installing the new version, you may have to remove both, and reinstall the version you want.
Make sure the version you are installing is compatible with the version of Word you are using. Oracle is really bad at compatibility.
Make sure you have a compatible version of Java installed too.
Do you see the add-in tool bar in the ribbon?

After read lots of other posts and could not find an answer, I ask if someone had the same problem.
I wrote two versions of the same APP: one for free and another paid version.
Hours after publish both, only the paid version can be found in google play. The free version does not "exists" if I use the search tool (using web or devices), but it is PUBLISHED in developer console.
The most weird is the fact I also can't find the application clicking "More From Developer"! Where the free version is?!
Comparing the Manifest of both, they are the same except the package and name.
Any one can help? Thanks!
Answering my own question: there is a bug in the new layout of developer console. I added two languages in my application: English, Portuguese. But instead of create two different languages, developer console added English twice. With the old interface I removed the second language and create a new Portuguese translation again. It worked!
I am looking for a quick and easy way to setup Siebel Open UI so that I can test it out before implementing it in my company's environment. We are currently using 8.1.1.5 and are interested in upgrading to 8.1.1.9. We have heard that Siebel Open UI will allow you to use the CRM in Google chrome and other browsers. We also heard there is more freedom to change the UI and that we don't have to stick with the SWSE templates.
Here is the link for Oracle Siebel VM. This will give you a Siebel 8.1.1 version which you will have to upgrade to the latest available IP. (8.1.1.10 is the latest available as on this date)

Look at Bloomspire. They can easily set up Siebel environments including 8.1.1.9. They are a lot cheaper than Oracle's cloud solution.
How about using the VM oracle provides?
VM sounds like a good idea, but i too couldn't find those on delivery. Oracle now has cumulative 8.1.1.9 installation, meaning you only need to install it once, and it will have OpenUI. Unfortunately, OpenUI is still work in progress, so you need to apply a lot of HotFixes to make it work properly. Unfortunately , Oracle doesn't provide any way to apply them un-attended, so there is no way around some manual patching.
We've just been through an internal upgrade for OpenUI, and now running 8.1.1.10
Seems that the jump from .9 to .10 is a major hurdle..
If you are still in need of assistance, feel free to contact me.

I am currently building an application and want to have an installer and automatic silent updates for it.
Dropbox, Spotify and Chrome all are amazing at updating without anyone noticing. So I took a look at the Dropbox Roaming Folder in AppData and found a file named DropboxUpdateHelper.exe with an NSIS Icon. In the Spotify folder I could only find a SpotifyHelper.exe and a mentioning of NSIS in the Terms.
Is there a tutorial of how to install an application inside the Roaming Folder and have a silent auto updater? I am not fixed on NSIS but would prefer an open source and free installer.
NSIS has the INetC plugin that can be used to download things from the internet but I don't know if there is an auto update tutorial out there. You might also want to take a look at the VPatch plugin...
There are many variables to think about here:
Should your main application look for updates or just run the updater on application (or windows) startup so it can check?
Are the files on the server signed or do you have other ways to detect invalid/corrupted/MitM updates?
Do you require access control/DRM before downloading/applying updates?
How will you handle major version number updates? Will you support more than one major version or force upgrades?
Do you require administrator rights to update? UAC handling?
How are you going to support upgrading from 1.0 to 1.2? Update to 1.1 first or support every possible minor version upgrade path?
I'm sure there are many other issues you also have to think about. You should probably try to answer all these questions before you start coding. During development you might find other questions or that you have to change the design completely.
IMHO, this is not a simple question and I don't think you will be able to find a drop-in solution that fits your exact design/requirements...
It is easy to download files from internet using NSIS (there are several plug-ins for this purpose: NSISdl, InetC, ...) but such functionality is more about coding.
There is no exact solution for this - as Anders said you need to specify every detail to achieve required behaviour.
I have been using Visual Basic 5 since it was first released until a couple of years ago.
I re-installed it on each new laptop I bought and downloaded the service pack each time. I think it is SP2 for VB5 I need.
But having not touched it in two years I have now just installed it on a laptop to modify an app. However, it seems that Microsoft no longer offers the service pack for download.
And on opening my projects i get repeated messages for each frame telling me I "don't have the license to use the control in developer mode".
What is this error and how do I get the service packs?
If you port to VB6, you shouldn't have to make very many changes.
If you port to any version of VB.Net, you will find that the changes are rather extreme. An automated tool will try to do some of the work for you, but depending on how your code was written and what VB5 features you used, you will probably find that you manually need to fix up most of the changes that were made.
The biggest problem is that some of the VB5 features don't have direct equivalents in VB.Net. Do any of your forms use control arrays? You CAN do something at least vaguely similar in VB.Net, but the conversion tool doesn't know about that, so converting them will have to be completely manual.
FYI, Microsoft service packs are available in two forms. The normal update process figures out what patches are needed on your computer, then downloads them and installs them. But there's also an "administrative" version that downloads every change that MIGHT be needed, in one package. That package doesn't automatically install - when the download is complete, you have to manually start it running. The admin version is intended for system administrators, who might have to apply the same patch to dozens / hundreds / thousands of computers on a network - you shouldn't have to download the same data over and over.
The admin service packs won't help you with VB5, of course (unless you find someone that downloaded the VB5 service packs and held on to them). But if you end up going to a new version of Visual Studio (or VB), and you think that it's likely that you'll keep using them more than 6 months or so past the end of Microsoft support, you might want to get in the habit of downloading the admin service packs and archiving them somewhere. It might prevent problems like this in the future.
The licensing issue is referenced on Microsoft knowledge base

A fix is available, downloadable from the same place.
Note : if you are running Windows Seven, you need to run VisualBasic in elevated mode.
xdebug is widely used by developers and since xampp is meant to be used in development environment i wonder why it doesnt come with xdebug installed?
so annoying to have to do it manually all the time.
For one thing, some people might prefer the Zend debugger.
For another, XAMPP is a free product; the maintainers aren't getting paid for their work, so features aren't driven by user desires. If you want the feature, request it or (better yet) offer to add it. This is basically the same as the answer to "Why doesn't open source project X have feature Y?"
