DHIS 2 Open Source Project
I am using DHIS-2 Software for our Malaria MIS System For Analysis and maintain performances regarding malaria information and management system.
Problem I Face using DHIS-2 is That :
I have to Create a data set that contain some dynamic elements (input fields) which may generate on run time. There max limit is not defined. Its Based on Data that to be entered.
How I manage it in DHIS-2 Data entry Forms Creation ? Or any other feature of dhis-2 that solve that issue ?
Any help regarding this will be appreciated.

We are using HP ALM 12.53.193 for issue tracking.
For a progress report of our development activity, I am trying to find out what tickets I worked on within the past month. Primarily, this includes tickets for which my user name was added to the Editors field, or that were marked as Fixed or Closed by me in the given timespan.
I am seeing some promising hints in this forum post that uses SQL to query the AUDIT_LOG table. Likewise, this [sqa.se] post suggests an SQL script for an Excel report.
Unfortunately, when I click New Business View Excel Report in ALM, I am asked to upload an Excel file for some reason, so I am not sure how to proceed from there to entering my SQL.
I have also tried creating a report with the New Project Report command (i.e. I am also ok with a non-scripted solution, if that is the way to go in ALM). However, it seems I can only show the filtered contents of single tables (e.g. Defect) there (the "Cross Filter" feature does not let me choose another entity (e.g. the Audit Log) for cross-filtering my defects with).
How can I retrieve that data from ALM?
I am not entirely sure SO is the right site for this question, although I consider HP ALM a "software tool(...) commonly used by programmers". Please migrate if it is deemed a better fit for another site.
I wonder what is the best way to implement global data version for database. I want for any modification that is done to the database to incerease the version in "global version table" by one. I need this so that when I talk to application users I know what version of data we are talking about.
Should I store this information in table?
Should I use triggers for this?
This version number can be stored in a configuration table or in a dedicated table (with one field).
This parameter should not be automatically updated because you are the owner of the schema and you are responsible for knowing when you need to update it. Basically, you need to update this number every time you deploy a new application package (regardless of the reason for the package: code or database change).
Each and every deployment package should take care of updating the schema version number and the database schema (if necessary)
I tend to have a globals or settings table with various pseudo-static values stored.
- Just one row
- Many fields
This can include version numbers.
In terms of maintaining the version number you refer to, would this change when the data content changes? If so, the a trigger would be useful. If you mean for the version number to relate to table structures, etc, I'd be more inclined to manage this by hand. (Some changes may be irrelevant as far as teh applications are concerned, or there maybe several changes wrapped up into a single version upgrade.)
The best way to implement a "global data version for database" is via your source control system and build process. When all the changes have been submitted and passed testing your build process will increment your versioning number schema.
The version number could be implemented in a stored procedure. The result of the call to the stored proc could be added to a screen in your app so you can avoid users directly accessing a table.
To complete the previous answers, I came across the concept of "Migrations" (from the Ruby on Rails world apparently) today, and there was already a question on SO that covered existing frameworks in .Net.
The concept is still to store DB versioning information as data in a table somewhere, but for that versioning information to be managed automatically by a framework, rather than manually by your custom deployment processes:
previous SO question with overview of options: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/313/net-migrations-engine
I'm building an application that runs on a Windows Mobile device. I'm using Microsoft's Sync Framework to sync the Sql CE database with the main corporate db.
The question is how can I limit the fields that are syncronized? The table in question has stacks of fields but I only need to display a few of them on the mobile device and replication is only one way (from the server to the mobile) so that shouldn't be an issue. I've seen this similar question but there's not much info there. Can anyone give me more advice on how to achieve this? I imagine that it's a very common requirement.
Also, does anyone know if I can use the Sync Framework Version 2.0 or do I have to stick to 1.0. I had a feeling that 2.0 doesn't support Windows Mobile but I'm not sure.
Cheers

You can change the T-SQL that's generated behind the scenes to not include all the columns of the table, but there are a couple of gotchas here. Firstly, it means that you can't use a wizard to modify the sync selection later - not a big deal, and creating your own partial class to override just the specific method with the T-SQL for your table mitigates that a bit.
Second, changes to the unincluded (not sure if that's a word?) columns can also trigger a download of that row as by default the change tracking is by row. You can change this by setting the Track_Columns_Updated flag
ALTER TABLE Employee
ENABLE CHANGE_TRACKING
WITH (TRACK_COLUMNS_UPDATED = ON)
Depending on the number of rows and size of the data and frequency updated, I have often found an easier solution is to provide a trigger on the main table of the server to update records in a separate table containing just the data you need, then sync that. It makes it much easier to change what's downloaded later. This is obviously not a solution if you are downloading the entire works of Shakespeare, but for a few 1000 records of a product catalogue, I think it's perfectly feasible.
Every week I access server logs processed by WebTrends (for about 7 profiles) and copy ad clickthrough and visitor information into Excel spreadsheets. A lot of it is just accessing certain sections and finding the right title and then copying the unique visitor information.
I tried using WebTrends' built-in query tool but that is really poorly done (only uses a drag-and-drop system instead of text-based) and it has a maximum number of parameters and maximum length of queries to query with. As far as I know, the tools in WebTrends are not suitable to my purpose of automating the entire web metrics gathering process.
I've gotten access to the raw server logs, but it seems redundant to parse that given that they are already being processed by WebTrends.
To me it seems very scriptable, but how would I go about doing that? Is screen-scraping an option?
I use ODBC for querying metrics and numbers out of webtrends. We even fill a scorecard with all key performance metrics..
Its in German, but maybe the idea helps you: http://www.web-scorecard.net/

Which version of WebTrends are you using? Unless this is a very old install, there should be options to schedule these reports to be emailed to you, and also to bookmark queries. Let me know which version it is and I can make some recommendations.
I am writing an application in VB.NET 2008 that manages software deployment and I want to display a "deployment overview" grid.
The grid will be populated with the names of each application (top row) and the name of each workstation (1st column). The remaining cells will be populated according to whether the corresponding software title has been installed correctly, install failed OR not deployed.
What would be the best way to present this information to the end-user? Could the application 'cope' with maybe a thousand check boxes or would it be better to 'owner-draw' a grid in some way?
I may also require the ability to click on any of these cells to view and/or set other properties.
Many thanks for your help.

I have used the .NET's GridDataView without any problems using the Virtual Mode while trying to show over 10000 rows but there are good products out there that are also very good in loading tons of data like Developer express XtraGrid and Telerik's RadGridView.
The only challenge was keep the UAT people happy with all the noise from several thousands of rows.
