Open your FTP client.
Enter the IP address and login details into your FTP client. The method varies between FTP client, but all will offer some kind of site manager or quick connect feature. As an example, FileZilla Client offers a 'Quickconnect' bar at the top of the window, where you enter the IP address, username and password to easily connect to the server. You can also click 'Site Manager' and enter the details there so they are saved for future use.
Click the newly created site and select 'Connect' to connect to the FileZilla server. As an example, FileZilla requires that you only click the top 'Quickconnect' button once the IP and login details are entered. Alternatively, Hold the 'Ctrl' key and press 'S' to open the Site Manager. Click the site and then click 'Connect' to connect to the FileZilla Server.

Tutorial for Crystal ReportsIn Feburary 2016 27,
In Feburary 2016 27,
After you choose Crystal Reports from the Start menu, it opens to the Start Page with three drop-down menus across the top: File, View and Help. In the body of the page, it gives you choices to either start a new report or open recent reports. If you choose to start a new report, you have several options. You can either design your own report from scratch using a blank report or you can use one of several wizards. It will be easiest to start with the report wizard.
Designing and Building Your First Report
Before you start up the wizard, think about what information you need and who needs your report. You'll get a much clearer report if you limit it as closely as possible to only the information your audience needs.When you select report wizard, a window opens up that helps you connect to your database. If your database is not listed under existing connections, you'll have to create a new connection to it. You'll need to tell it what kind of database you're connecting to. Your simplest starting point is to select an Access/DAO database. A window will open that asks for the database name. If you don't know the name, click the ellipsis [...] next to 'database name', to browse. The wizard will walk you through selecting your tables and fields. Make your first report without using grouping.When you get to the record selection window, you can narrow down your data, adding fields into the filter fields section, then using the drop-downs below to specify what data you do and don't want.
Your Report's Appearance
When you finish filtering and click Finish, Crystal Reports will select your data and display it to you on the Preview tab. Click the Design tab. You can add headers and footers here, change their appearance and change the size and name of columns. You have three tool bars at the top of your window. In the lowest one down, the leftmost section is the one that lets you insert text objects, images, charts and such. Experiment. If you're familiar with MS Office or its competitors, the choices will be pretty intuitive.
Publishing Your Report
Under the File menu, you can print your report or export it to other applications such as Word and Excel or as a PDF. You can make it editable or read only. You can export your data into a flat file if that's what you need. Using the print option, you can send your report out as a fax. Export options also let you send your report directly to one of several email applications.

How to FTP Between Two ComputersIn Feburary 2016 18,
In Feburary 2016 18,
Note the address of the FTP server. This address can either be a host name or an IP address. A host name will be similar to one you use to access a website. An IP address will be similar to 192.168.1.1, although your numbers will vary.
Determine whether a user name is required to login to the FTP server. FTP sessions may either require a name or they may be anonymous. If no name or password has been provided, assume it is anonymous FTP.
Make a note of the password required for your FTP access to the remote server. If it is anonymous FTP, you will not need a password.
Connect with an FTP Client
Attempt an FTP connection using your web browser. Most browsers support FTP connections. Type 'ftp://192.168.1.1/path/filename' in the address bar of your web browser. Substitute the actual host, domain, path and file name that you have been provided.
Connect with a command line FTP client. Both Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X support FTP from the command prompt. Open a command prompt in Windows, or use the Terminal application in OS X. In both, type 'ftp' from the command prompt to access the FTP client.
Download a free graphical FTP client. If you plan to use FTP regularly, a graphical client can simplify the process. Some of the most popular FTP clients include WinSCP for Windows, Cyberduck for Mac OS X, or CrossFTP for either operating system.

How to Insert HTML Values Into an Oracle DatabaseIn Feburary 2016 09,
In Feburary 2016 09,
Create the web page in HTML. Make sure the page includes two text input fields named 'user' and 'password.' Set the form action to call 'input.cgi' from the cgi-bin on your server. Save the HTML as 'info.html.'
Create the server side script. For PERL to speak to a database, you must use the DBI module. The following script shows how to connect to the database:!/usr/bin/perl -wuse CGI;
use DBI;
print 'Content-type: text/html\n\n';
$cgi = CGI->new();
$user = $cgi->param('user');
$password = $cgi->param('password');
$dbh = DBI->connect( 'dbi:Oracle:your_Database_name', 'your_username', 'your_password' )
or die 'Can't connect to Oracle database: $DBI::errstr\n';
You must get the values for 'your_Database_name,' 'your_username,' and 'your_password' from your server administrator. For this tutorial, it is assumed you already have this information.
Write the SQL. To do this, you must have a table set up in Oracle that can receive the two fields. Call the table 'user_auth' and make sure it has a column called 'user' and another one called 'pwd.' The following SQL statement will insert the data into the table:
$sqlstatement='INSERT INTO user_auth VALUES ('$user','$password')';
$sth=$dbh->prepare($sqlstatement);
$sth->execute || print $sqlstatement;
Confirm the data have been entered by including a print command. To do this, add the following line of code to the end of the program:
print 'Information accepted';
If this does not print out, then you can be sure the information was not sent. You must go back and check the database settings. Save the script as 'input.cgi.'
Upload the HTML and CGI files to the server. The HTML must go in docs area, and the CGI must be uploaded to the cgi-bin.
Execute the program. Do this by opening the HTML document in a browser and entering some mock information. Once you submit it, you should see the confirmation printout. If you see the printout, the information has been sent to the database.

How to Import an Existing Site to Dreamweaver FTPIn Feburary 2016 07,
In Feburary 2016 07,
Open Dreamweaver, and then click 'Site' from the main menu. Click on 'New Site' from the site menu to start setting up the new site.
Enter the name for the site that will appear in the Dreamweaver site manager on the 'Site' tab. You can use the website's domain name as the site name to help identify the site. Click on the folder icon next to the 'Local Site Folder' box, and create a directory on your computer's hard disk to store the site files. This directory mirrors the site directory on the remote server.
Click on 'Servers' from the menu on the left of the window to view the 'Servers' tab, and then click on the '+' button at the bottom of the box.
Type in a server name to identify the server. Select how Dreamweaver should connect to the server from the 'Connect Using' drop-down menu, such as through FTP or SFTP. Leave this set to 'FTP' if you are unsure of the connection method. Type in the FTP address of the server, as a domain name or IP address, and enter the FTP user name and password in the relevant boxes.
Type in the directory that corresponds to the root directory of the website in the 'Root Directory' box. For example, if you have to change to a directory named 'public_html' to upload files to the website, enter '/public_html/' in the box. If you are automatically located in the root directory of the website when you log in through FTP, leave the box blank. Type in the root URL of the website in the 'Web URL' box, such as 'http://www.domain.com/.'
Click the 'Test' button to test the FTP connection. You should see a notification appear that the connection has been successful. If the connection fails, double-check all the settings with your Web host to ensure they are correct. Click the 'Save' button to save the settings and close the server window. Click the 'Save' button again on the main window to save the site and close.
Select the new site from the site drop-down menu on the Files panel. Press 'F8' to display the panel if it is not already visible. Select 'Remote Server' from the drop-down menu at the top right of the Files panel, and then click the 'Connect' button to connect to the server. You see all the files held on the FTP server for the site displayed in the 'Remote Server' box.
Click on the file or directory at the top of the remote files list to select it, and then hold down the 'Shift' key while clicking the last file or directory to select all files. Right-click on the highlighted files and click 'Get' to download the files to your computer. You can now edit the files in Dreamweaver and upload changed files to the remote server using the 'Put' command.
