Hi, You might have heard about CF's undocumented features. One of them came in really handy for me. Its the getPageContext() Method. Using this method, we can list all variable scopes. You could do something like this <cfdump var="#getPageContext().getVariableScope()#"> or <cfdump var="#getPageContext().getBuiltInScopes().Variables#"> to get local variables scope and similarly for other variable scope. I read about this method at 2 great blogs, one by Ben Nadel and other by Mark Kruger . http://www.bennadel.com/index.cfm?dax=blog:758.view http://www.coldfusionmuse.com/index.cfm/2008/7/29/get-all-scopes-for-a-request Hope this helps.

Hi, One of our colleague got a new Dell Latitude laptop and when he was trying to remote desktop i.e. remotely login to his work pc, he was getting a message in Internet Explorer saying You need to enable the add-on or Active X control needs to be installed. Step 1. If the Active X control is not installed, please go ahead and install it. Step 2. If you are still not able to access remote desktop and get message saying enable the add-on, you would have to download XP SP3, extract the files and run the following 2 files Tscdsbl.bat Tscuinst.vbs That fixed the problem for me. Hope this helps.

Hi, I just ended up installing DW CS4 and I noticed some cool features. 1. Go to File Menu, and select Share My Screen. Within minutes after you install Adobe Connect Plug In and the user you invite installs the plug in as well, you will be able to share screens. It just took me and my co-worker(thanks MJ), 2 minutes to test this feature. 2. Another feature. Code Split. You can split the code into 2 parts, so you could be scrolling the code in top section and view the top part or any part at the bottom view. To do this, in your DW, on the very top next to where Menu ends, there is a layout button. If you click on that, you will see different options and one of them is split code. 3. The one I really like the most is the *View Related Files*. We have several includes in our coldfusion code and this features lets me see all the files that are related to this cfm template. I will update this post later. Till then, Bye.

In Windows XP, Firefox profile folder is located at "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\". Firefox saves backup copy of your bookmarks in the "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\sometext.default\bookmarkbackups" folder. So all you have to do is in your new FF instance, go to the profiles\sometext.default folder, and replace the old bookmarks.html file with the one you are copying over. Thats all to it. Within a minute you can have your bookmarks in the new FF instance. This is the manual way of doing it. FF has import wizard which will do the same for you. I found this method since I was working on 2 machines and I just wanted to take bookmarks on new machine without any extensions. HTH.

The decimal data type in sql server 2000 has precision and scale. The precision defines how many length of chars that can exist from left to right including the the numbers after the decimal point. For example col1 decimal(3,2) can contain total of 3 numbers. 9.20 is valid whereas 99.2 is invalid because sql server will add a zero at end to make it 99.20 and that invalidates the rule of precision 3. try this drop table testDec2 create table testDec2(col1 decimal(8,2)) insert into testDec2 values (999996.9999999) --number on left is of len 6 and even thogh we have 7 digits after decimal point, sql -- will truncate the number to insert 999997.00 . Notice the rounding. -- if you try to insert 999999.99 it wont work because of rounding. The number will -- be 1000000.00 i.e. total of 9 chars. select * from testDec2 give it a try. ;-)

Found this great tutorial to mimic the gmail conversation style threading of conversation / emails in one single thread. http://www.petroleumjelliffe.com/2006/02/make-outlook-work-like-gmail/ Right click on From, or Subject and select Field Chooser. Select Conversation and drag it to any place where From, Subject etc appear. Conversation will appear along From, Subject wherever you have placed it. Right Click Conversation and select Group by this field. Thats it. You are done. I got a message saying cant group by Date and conversation. so I sorted my mail by sender and then clicked on conversation. It worked for me. Make sure you arrange mail in such a way that the new email is listed on top. HTH.

I use Dreamweaver 8 on Windows XP and recently started to get this error message for no reason. It just started one day. the following translators were not loaded due to errors coldfusion.htm has configuration information that is invalid. This could also happen for XSLT.htm has configuration information that is invalid, ASP.htm: has configuration information that is invalid. ASP.NET.htm: has configuration information that is invalid. and so on. The solution to this problem is to delete FileCache_X.dat files from the Dreamweaver user configuration folder, where X is a random number and it could be different for your system. See below Dreamweaver 8 on Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration All the best. I was able to successfully solve this problem

So this morning I had an issue where in images were not being displayed. The images are stored on network share on a different machine. I used this code to make it work, thanks to the help provided by http://www.acfug.org/ members. welcome to the test page..... <cfset theFile = "\\servername\sharename\CF_Chart_Share\test.jpg"> <cfif fileExists(theFile)> File exists <cfelse> does not exist </cfif> <br><cfoutput>#theFile#</cfoutput> <br> <!--- we have code in img2.cfm that will get us the image --> <br><img src=" img2.cfm "> The file img2.cfm has the code below <cfcontent type="image/GIF" file="\\servername\sharename\CF_Chart_Share\test.jpg"> I tried adding the code cfcontent in the same page but that was causing only the image to be displayed i.e. no text was being displayed. Hope it helps someone. Ajas.

We recently moved our web application to new server and we noticed that the webex files with extension .wrf was not being shown to user or was not being rendered by IIS. So on doing further research, I came to know that we needed to set a MIME type for the wrf extension. The .wrf extension needs to be set to application/octet-stream. Go to IIS settings, select the website or the web root folder and right click and select properties. Click on HTTP Headers tab and the bottom click on MIME Types button. Click new button and add .wrf in extension and application/octet-stream in MIME Type text box. Click OK and Apply at next screen and you should be done. After I clicked OK and Apply, the screen Inheritance override was shown. I said cancel to all. Here is some info from IIS help. If you set or change a MIME type that conflicts with a setting at another node in the hierarchy, you are prompted with an Inheritance Override dialog box where you can specify the nodes to which the new setting a...
