FM Inventory Quantities

- "in box" is the number of physical boxes which actually exists
- "on hand" is "in box" minus any order lenses which have not yet been shipped. AKA would be "available for ordering".
- Newly added QtyCorrected is corrective qty used to adjust stock levels after checking inventory.

Regediting ActiveSync Folder

In order to allow multiple pocket PCs to syncronize to the same folder, open RegEdit and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners\. There, each partnership defines it's shared folder in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners\[somenumber]\Services\Synchronization\Briefcase Path. Make sure all the Briefcase paths are set to the same folder. EXACT NAME IS IMPORTANT, so copy and paste the value from the partnership that you are interested in.

GMail PHPed

When FMImporter is done importing the CSV files into FileMaker, it sends an email to a gmail account with the mail title the name of the CSV file as the title and the contents as the body. Today, it happened that I needed to reprocess 115 of these files, and wanted an easy way to turn the emails into files.

Easy just didn't happen. I tried the FireFox GSpace Add On, and the shell extension GMail Drive, but they ONLY treat their own files (although both are cool tools to use a gmail account as a file store). They do this by using a special email title, and by storing the files as attachments.

Also tried PhpGmailDrive 0.3.2, but this only displays files which are attachments.

Finally, I hacked PhpGmailDrive's usage of libgmailer (after upgrading libgmailer to version 0.9 Beta 2), which is a PHP wrapper for the gmail API. The documentation is not the best, and I was never able to get more than the first 50 messages, but by applying a "label" to the gmail messages of interest, 50 emails at a time, I was able to get the following hacked code to download the emails as files...

if ($gm[$a]->connect()) { //
$gm[$a]->fetchBox(GM_LABEL, "fix", 0); // name of constants can be found in libgmailer.php
$snapshot = $gm[$a]->getSnapshot(GM_LABEL);
$lastidx = count($snapshot->box)-1; //

//$gf->TreeData .= "// ".count($snapshot->box).".\n";
//$gf->TreeData .= "// ".$snapshot->box_total.".\n";

//for ($c=0;$c<=$snapshot->box_total;$c+1)
//{
//$gm[$a]->fetchBox(GM_STANDARD, "inbox", $c); // name of constants can be found in libgmailer.php
//$snapshot = $gm[$a]->getSnapshot(GM_STANDARD);
//$lastidx = count($snapshot->box)-1;
foreach ((array)$snapshot->box as $item) { //
$gm[$a]->fetchBox(GM_CONVERSATION, $item["id"], 0); // name of constants can be found in libgmailer.php
$snapshot1 = $gm[$a]->getSnapshot(GM_CONVERSATION);
foreach ((array)$snapshot1->conv as $item1) {
$fh = fopen("C:\\down\\".$item1["subj"], "w");
$body = $item1["body"];
$body = str_replace(""", "\"", $body);
$body = str_replace("

", "", $body);
$body = str_replace("
", "\r\n", $body);
$body = str_replace("

", "", $body);
fwrite($fh, $body);
fclose($fh);
continue;
