<title>[UR] Suggestions - Are UR Extensions a real future possibility?</title>

<description><![CDATA[I suppose a simple possibility would be to use a small embeddable scripting language, like Lua, for extending Ultrarecall. Lua can manipulate SQLite databases, as far as I know, and might provide the power to script and extend UR.

<title>[UR] Suggestions - Usability - Sort order reset in Attributes screen</title>
<link>http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=3711&amp;goto=newpost</link>
<pubDate>Sat, 19 Jul 2008 19:30:49 -0400</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[(3.5a)

Very minor bug:
1) I go to the Attributes screen.
2) I sort on Name.
3) I add a field.
4) Sort order is now different.

The expected result would be the list to retain the sort order.

(reason this is noticeable is that I'm entering 30-40 attributes based on another URD file).]]></description>

On the Excel side, right-click on the cell you want to paste to and chose "Hyperlink" - you'll get the dialog shown in the screen shot below (from Excel 2003).

Here's a sample link:
ur://C:/Data%20-%20UR/LMT%20Office/LMT%20Listings.urd?item=6625,3229,1000

Once you've established the path portion, you can (working in a single db) via various means create an internal link for an Item, then right-click to determine it's hyperlink properties - the Item node path to root shown above.

Of course your paths may not be standard, that is the purpose of the %temp% variable. 

More explanation anyway>
Most likely kinook's program saved the file to the location found in your systems variable %temp%.  I don't know where that location is, kinook doesn't either- but your system does.

Did you try my suggestion?  What happened?

Start| Run %temp% will open explorer to the folder.

Dos prompt >echo %temp% will tell you what the folders path is...

How about just searching for the file...

<description><![CDATA[ 
Thanks for the suggestion and I'll keep it in mind.

Actually there are a number of industry specific solutions available that probably would have saved me a lot of time and trouble over developing something in UR. Some are in line with UR Pro in pricing, where others are two to three times more expensive. Espeically when I had to consider not just Lead Tracking but also office management functions.

But all of those solutions were somebody elses idea of how something should be done, and there was always something missing (and some have moved to entirly web-based solutions, something I didn't want to get locked into). Besides, UR also fills most of my personal needs.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Each Item in the OrgTree is a Position in the Organization.

From a completed OrgPosition Item, place the cursor in the OrgEmployee field (contains data from Info Item Lookup) and do a Ctrl-Q to jump to the Employee Item - if you don't leave the Employee Item won't the Back button return you from where you started.

But what if you start at an Employee Item and want to know its OrgPosition(s).

A saved Search Item as the child of the Employee - Kinook's suggestion:

(OrgEmployee) equals (choose from Lookup)

This assumes that the OrgEmployee Attribute is only used in one location (OrgTree).

Otherwise, you've got to have an OrgPosition Info Item in the Employee record - but what if an Employee is working on more than one Product (occupies more than one position in the OrgTree - is this possible?). Or what if the Employee moves to another Product (changing Poisition in the OrgTree), you have to come back and "touch" the Employee record to reflect the change.

Is the OrgTree an Intersection table between Employees and Products (Parts)?]]></description>

<pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 15:16:07 -0400</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[Thank you all.

@kinook:  Yes, I agree that the "backup export" section should probably have the reference to "backup" removed.  It did lead me to think that was the method Kinook was suggesting for backup purposes.

As for a backup application, I mentioned in my post that I do have a number of redundant backup methods in my personal backup strategy.  Even a little overboard, some claim:

[*] BackUp4All Pro as my "normal" backup.

[*] Super Flexible File Synchronizer for syncing files and folders to external drives and via FTP to an online server I maintain.

[*] Acronis True Image Home 11 for regular images of my C: drive, and less frequent images of two other 500 GB internal SATA drives.  (Lost faith, though, with this version - very bug-laden compared to previous versions)

[*] Mozy Online backup - I just canceled this service a week ago.  Used it for over a year and then they sent out an automatic update to a new version.  Couldn't connect reliably to their servers anymore, and when they had me install other "test" versions to try and fix it, they somehow "lost" my 60+ GB backup files on their server!

[*] I also use FirstDefense - Rescue for copying my entire operating system and config and keeping it in a "safe" partition. I can boot to that copy at will for crash recovery  and/or sandbox-type software testing.

Whew!  Sounds like a lot, but recently two of my backup methods failed catastrophically, and the others saved me.

Anyway, I am sure my URDs will be safely backed up one way or another!

@Quant:

I'll take a look at Wink, though I do use another usually.

@ashwken:

I have the Firefox extension DownLoadHelper installed on Firefox 3 and that has an animated icon just to the right of the URL address bar (or the "Awesome Bar", as it is called in FF3! - Neat feature.), and you can click on that for a drop-down menu from which you can download ANY media files on the particular web page you happen to be on. It also lets you download all media files at once - they are downloaded as a folder. Pretty nice, very convenient).

If I want to target specific items to download, however, I also have most of Applian's programs: Replay A/V, Replay Converter, etc. I can pretty much download any A/V file from anywhere online, then convert it to any other format I wish.  It can also record any and all sounds coming through the sound card on the computer.  ;)

Thanks all!

This seemed like a good project to document because it contains so many of the procedures and UR features that a user will come up against. And I felt that the problems raised in this thread have been acknowledged or explained by Kinook.

<description><![CDATA[ 

Ah, yes. You are correct. This makes sense and I should have realized how this works. Related to this, it is amazing how many common keywords exist and are indexed. So many for me that when I performed my experiment, I thought I was deleting the whole index. Still, the size of my database, once compressed, was reduced dramatically.

I take no particular exception to the added size of the database. My problem has always been with UR's speed. Importing, exporting, copying from the web have been improved over time, but are still quite slow when compared to some other programs. One could also make an arguement that indexing does not have to increase searching speed. Just look at programs that do not index (and the relatively small size of their databases). I am referring to Info Select and askSam (the professional version indexes, the other does not).

However, nothing is close to URs versatility, consistency, and depth.

1.  PreLoad Step - Sets the version information for the current VBP application, project paths, config file paths (config, scripts, macros, steps) relative to the current server.

2.  Performs a checkout/get from source control for the versions of the files that are used by the current build process.

3.  Reloads all of the VBP files based upon what was retrieved from source control. (See example below)

Application.Options.Load "%configfilepath%\VisBuildPro.config"
Application.Macros(vbldMacroGlobal).Load "%configfilepath%\VisBuildPro.macros", True
Application.Scripts(vbldScriptGlobal).Load "%configfilepath%\VisBuildPro.Global.scripts"
Application.Project.Steps(vbldStepGlobalSubroutine).Load "%configfilepath%\VisBuildPro.steps"

4. Calls a global subroutine step that loads/set macros and processes any other steps that are used throughout every build process. Project specific data is stored in an xml file and loaded during this phase.

Up to this point, every project is exactly the same in the way that it processes information. Only what it loads may be different.

5. Main section of build project executed. This may actually differ from project to project.

6. Cleanup phase - The remainder of the steps are stored in the global subroutines section and therefore identical from project to project. This may upload project info to a database, produce a build report, send mail, handle any error conditions, etc... 

The main objective here is to not have to maintain VBP specific info on any machine but have the ability to download anything that is needed to any machine (given a default operating system and tool set) and roll out changes on a global basis as needed.]]></description>

Yes, I was afraid of this. It won't be worth trialing this method because it will be far too work intensive. Perhaps I will try linking for a while. If linking the documents does not suit my purposes, I could simply select all that were linked and store them. Too bad this does not work the other way around because I am now seeing that linking, especially relative linking, has merit.

<description><![CDATA[I think I can partly answer my own question.  The database became corrupted , but using Ctrl Alt Del to access Windows Task Manager, and by deleting the UR process (rather than application) shown there, the database righted itself (even though rebooting had not achieved this effect).

Searching is now as it should be.  I suspect I somehow created a rogue search which locked the system and which was repeating the problem when the search box was re-opened after re-boot.]]></description>

If the VBScript code is external to VBP (i.e., a .vbs file), you would need to instantiate the object model and store in a project (loading the appropriate .bld file first) or global macro.

<title>[UR] General Discussion - Degradation of tear off toolbar</title>
<link>http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=3664&amp;goto=newpost</link>

<description><![CDATA[Actually, I've had to give up on using these tear off toolbars, and have set up my own keyboard macros instead.

I don't know why these toolbars are as they are.  Firstly, very few people would be aware they can tear them off, so they probably hardly ever get used.  But surely a toolbar that selects the item you want is almost the first thing you need and should be a mainstream toolbar.

Secondly, it makes no sense to me that the Sibling and Child tear off bars use the same icons.  What is needed is one standard bar providing both child and sibling insertion without duplicate icons, ideally customisable.

UR is lovably eccentric but frequently frustrating too.]]></description>
