Conceal data item (forms generation)

Hi
How could I generate a conceal data item (for example, for entering passwords)? I can't find any property, and the documentation says that the conceal form item property is not set by designer...
Thanks

Inside Form Builder, create a library object in your Object Library (e.g., "OFGWEBOL.OLB") based off the Default text item. You may do this by creating a module and a block, dragging the Default text item (aptly named "CGSO$DEFAULT_ITEM") into the block items, choosing a new name for it (like CGSO$PASSWD or something), and later on after the changes dragging it back into the Object Library palette. Remember to save your .OLB file afterwards.
What you need to change: Examine the properties of your new library object and flip the "Conceal Data" (under Functional properties) to "Yes".
Back in designer, go to the properties of your password text item, the one whose contents you wish to conceal. Type in the name of the new library object (again, like CGSO$PASSWD or something) in the property "Template/Library Object" and then regenerate your module.

Make Item of Data Entry Form Insert Only, Non Updateable

Hi,
Can someone please tell me how to make an item on a data entry form insert only and not updateable. The user can enter the text item in insert mode but cannot update the text item in update mode. This was really simple in Oracle Forms, hoping it is as simple in APEX.
Thanks

I think that's too much of the wrong information.
It sounds like you have multiple forms. Are they Modal or Non-Modal?
What code do you use to call the form that's not working?
Does it work initially and then stop working?

Assigning a time to a date item results always in 00:00 (Forms 6i)

Hi,
in Forms 6i I have a date item (called time) with the format mask hh24:mi.
If I enter at runtime a time in that field (eg. 08:00) everything is fine.
But if I assign the time to that item programmatically with
:block.time := to_date('08:00','HH24:MI');
or with
:block.time := to_date('01.01.2002 08:00','DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI');
the displayed time is always "00:00".
Any hints on this?
Thanks in adcance,
Marco.

Hello,
Are you sure the item type is DATETIME ?

I love the new form generation stuff in FB, but some problem here

I love the new form generation stuff in FB and I've created a form from a create autogenerated service.
When the user fills in the form I call the method I assign it to a token in a call responder
        createtbMysteryShopperResultsResult2.token = tbMysteryShopperResultsService.createtbMysteryShopperResults(tbMysteryShopperRe sults2);
The service just a void one
However if the users fills the form again and called the same service I get an error:
Item with id 'tbMysteryShopperResultsRPCDataManager:#:0' already exists. Error on destination 'tbMysteryShopperResultsRPCDataManager'
The primary key column is auto incremented in the ms sql database so I do not understand this error?
Any advice would be great, this problem has been bugging me for days now
A lot of the code generated stuff I don't understand so I don't know where to look for errors

Sorry for the late response, but I think I've found a workaround, I encounter exactly the same trouble in my application, very rare trouble but more often when the application runs on touch screen. I think It's like the user double-click on the button firing the action of create item twice, in my case it should not arised because i remove the button on click but ... sometimes it seems it should :-/ By default the RemoteObject wrapps in the DataService is in multiple mode , see concurrency in RemoteObject source :
    [Inspectable(enumeration="multiple,single,last", defaultValue="multiple", category="General")]
    * Value that indicates how to handle multiple calls to the same service. The default
    * value is multiple. The following values are permitted:
    * <ul>
    * <li>multiple - Existing requests are not cancelled, and the developer is
    * responsible for ensuring the consistency of returned data by carefully
    * managing the event stream. This is the default.</li>
    * <li>single - Making only one request at a time is allowed on the method; additional requests made
    * while a request is outstanding are immediately faulted on the client and are not sent to the server.</li>
    * <li>last - Making a request causes the client to ignore a result or fault for any current outstanding request.
    * Only the result or fault for the most recent request will be dispatched on the client.
    * This may simplify event handling in the client application, but care should be taken to only use
    * this mode when results or faults for requests may be safely ignored.</li>
    * </ul>
Then I add a test in my code and the problem seems to disappear :
                            if ( createPersonResult.token == null )
                                createPersonResult.token = personService.createPerson(person);

Get previous items unique value in new add item form

Hi
I have on list having items related to multiple locations.
Every location is related to one user.
When user logs in it filters the list with that users location.
Now when user click on add new item I want to get the data related to his location using item event listener.
But in new item form there is no way to get the location of that user in event listener as its new item.
So I passed the qury string parameter form list and changed the add item form link and form to get the query string paramter as default value in Add new Item form.
But again when user clicks on save button it redirects to original url without paramter.
How to redirect user to url with parameter on click on Save/Cancel.
Is there any other way to get the previous item unique value in add new item from before executing the event listener?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to redirect user to url with parameter on click on Save/Cancel.
You need to modify the onclick event need to as below:
javascript: {{ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent('__redirect={{Home.aspx?Participant={@Participant}&@Activity={@Activity}}}')}}
Here is a similar thread for your reference:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/b506cfe5-650e-4017-b470-9ca0a75cd390/sharepoint-2010-list-how-to-pass-parameters-in-a-url-to-another-page?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious
In addition, you can creating an intermediate page which just finds the filed value with a DVWP and then redirect to RedirectURL with the filed value on the Query String.
For more information, you can refer to:
Redirect to Another Page from NewForm.aspx with the New Item’s ID

How to populate new record on data entry form based on search results?

Hello,
I'm new to jdeveloper im using version 11.1.2.1.0.
Usually Im using forms 10g.
I created search panel with table and its working but problem is how to transfer/populate all the field value according to that search result to New data Entry Form
by clicking the table record or a button.
Given :
TABLES,EO
1. PatientMasterIndex
2. PatientTransactionMaster <<---- master
3. PatientTransactionDetail <<-- detail relation
Here the scenario,
After Search of any patient, when i clicked one or more patient (which Jdeveloper allow multi select on jtable) on the table record it should automatically transfer or copied to the text field, i want to show on the form of PatientTransactionMaster like PatientNumber,PatientInsuranceNumber etc. to be save on db as new record, also non database field for view only like patient Name,address,age.
IN forms i can do that by :PatientTransactionMaster.PatientNumber := :blocksearch.PatientSearchNumber ,etc.....
or an item trigger to populate the said PatientTransactionMaster block. ( select .... into :PatientTransactionMaster.PatientNumber,etc....)
Any suggestion,links,sample is highly appreciated.
Sorry for my english.
Thank you very much

Hi,
Do you want to create a detail record that will include some values from your master record??
Or do you want to create a record with values from your Search criteria, only in the case you do not have any results?
if it is the second case.
When do you want to do that? After a press of button? or immediately?
In general you have to handle the values from search criteria.
Additionally, if you use ViewCriteria, you have to have bind variables for your search criteria that you will want to use.
So in general, you have to know the values by using bind variables, understand that the query has no results (This can be done in many ways, depending on your implementation. if you are using a button, you could make a disable condition with iterator.estimatedRowCount property.)
Perform the insert operation with the values from the bind variables.

Dimitris.

Capturing Detail Items for a Related List in a New Item Form

I have a simple (ha!) requirement to capture Purchase Requests with the individual line items being captured in a separate List. I have been using InfoPath, but will consider ANY solution at this point.
If I have an Edit Item Form, I can have a Data View (LIst View Web part) that will display all related items in my Details List (using a filter on the Parent ID). I can even add a Data Form Web Part below this to allow for the entry of a single itme
at a time, and make the lookup field of the new item default to the ID of the parent item.
All well and good for the Edit Item. But if I want to do the same on my New Item Form, I am up the proverbial without a paddle because I do not have access to the ID of the Parent List Item (that is still being captured).
So, using any of the standard SharePoint technologies (except Visual Studio), how can I create a New Item Form, in which I can enter items for a related details List and see those detail items already entered, all while capturing the original form?

Hi Mike,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to get the details of the related items in New Item form.
I recommend to edit the new item form in InfoPath and use repeating table to display the related items based on the value in the lookup column.
Here are the detailed steps:
Edit the new item form(listB for example) in InfoPath and then add the related list(listA for example) including all the details you need as external data source to the form.
Choose the secondary data source added in step1 in Fields panel and then expand dataFields, then right click d:SharePointListItem_RW and select Repeating Table to insert the secondary data source added in step1 as repeating table to the form.
Right click d:SharePointListItem_RW in the Fields panel and select Rules, then click New and select Formatting in Rules panel.
Click None under Condition in Rules panel, then select ID field in the repeating table in the first box, select is not equal to in the second box, then choose Select a field or group in the third box and select Main under Fields, then click the lookup field
in the form and then click OK.
Select Hide this control under Formatting in Rules panel.
Thanks,
Victoria

How to validate a date item "DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI" ?

Hi,
I want to create a validation item. I have a date item usinhg this mask : "DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI".
I want to validate if a date entered according to this syntax "DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI"
Unfortunately APEX gives me only the choice to validate if a date is under the form "DD/MM/YYYY" which gives this syntax :
^([012]?[[:digit:]]|3[01])/(0?[[:digit:]]|1[012])/[[:digit:]]{4}$I don't know this syntax, do you know how I could transform it (I mean adding the hours and minutes criteria) to attain my goal ?
Sorry for my english, not perfect, today !
Regards,
Christian

Try this:
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('04-OCT-2011 23:12',
'^([012]?[[:digit:]]|3[01])-(JAN|FEB|MAR|APR|MAY|JUN|JUL|AUG|SEP|OCT|NOV|DEC)-[[:digit:]]{4}[[:space:]][0-2][0-9]:[0-9][0-6]$') test_result
FROM dualFor case-insenstive matching, use below:
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('04-OCT-2011 23:12',
'^([012]?[[:digit:]]|3[01])-(JAN|FEB|MAR|APR|MAY|JUN|JUL|AUG|SEP|OCT|NOV|DEC)-[[:digit:]]{4}[[:space:]][0-2][0-9]:[0-9][0-6]$',1,1,0,'i') test_result

Localize (multilingual , bilingual) error messages in out of the box (OOTB) new / edit item form.

In a multilingual environment am using variation. I have 3 sites root site, English site and Arabic.
All my lists are in root site with one condition I need to use out-of-the-box forms for data entry. My problem is when I try to insert an item in root web list, it will display English version of new item form.
I cannot duplicate entry forms for each language, because if a new field is added in list I need to translate and update all the forms manually.

I'm missing how your question is related to Microsoft Office? What kind of a solution is this (so that I know which forum to move the question to)?

Data Collection Form broken in ZCM 11.3.1 FRU1?

Hello Forum!
We just installed the 11.3.1 FRU1 for fixing BUG 888008 - "User login force run bundles do not run after device". Server installation didn't cause any trouble and the bug is fixed. We are happy so far.
While testing the new agent on some machines we recognized that the data collection form won't open when the user chooses the menu item on the taskbar agent icon. Unfortunatelly our users have to enter some inventory data there regulary and we can't install the new agent until this is fixed again.
So maybe we have to wait for 11.3.2 ?!? Is anybody out there with same problem?

Kkb,
I can confirm this happens - if you can open a SR with Novell, that's
the quickest way to get this moving - meanwhile I will report it to

Selecting data in forms from site column fields

We are seeing some unusual actions when selecting data from site columns on the new item form. Here's the context.
2 lists are maintained at the Intranet level and designated as a site column.
4 lists are maintained at a subsite level and are also designated as a site column.
We created a list on the second tier subsite (third level) and added all 6 of the site columns to the list.
When opening the new item to add an entry, some of the fields have a default value listed. You only need to click your selection once to populate the field. Some fields appear with (none) as the default value. Other fields are blank and
you have to double click your selection to populate the field.
We have not edited the default forms in any way...they are straight out of the box.
I'm assuming this has something to do with the setup on some of the lists, sites, or site columns, but haven't the foggiest as to what may be causing the issues. All list settings I've thought to check are consistent with each other. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

robin, you are on to something with the 20 item question. i created three lists with 19, 20, and 21 items respectively and then added 3 columns to my test library and attached to those lists. when in internet explorer, 19 works perfect. however,
on the new item form, the fields for 20 and 21 are 3 times the length of the 19 field and do require a double click for entry. when adding a new item in firefox, all three fields were single click entry. is there someway to change this behavior?
the mystery remains though on the default value. in this test library and test columns, (none) shows up as the default value on the new item form for all fields regardless of the number of items in the list. cameron, since these are lookup columns,
the default value option disappeared on the column creation page. is there another location where i need to select a default value? or, hopefully not, do i need to copy over my data and delete/recreate the lists?
i know early on the creation of the lists were somewhat haphazard in that some users turned off required entry for the title field and skipped over it for data entry while others simply renamed the title field and entered data in it. that may be more
of a nit on my end, but wasn't sure if it might randomly have an impact.

In Query mode, date items does not accepts more than 10 characters..Why?

Dear All,
In my form, While querying my date items, it does not accepts more than 10 Characters. Could it be changeable.
Actually i want to search like greater than specified date( >01/01/2007 ).
But i can specify like >01/01/07. After tabbing out from that item, it displays like >01/01/200.
How to overcome this issue.
Please help.
Regards,
Balaji

You are absoletely correct Francois!
Previously i have made a mistake that both of my maximum length and query length property to 20. That time it was not worked. Now i changed my maximum length to the old one like 11 and i changed only the query length to 20.
Now it is working. I understood the concept wrongly.
Thanks Francois!

How to Commit in InfoBus Data Items

Hi,
I created an Applet using JDev2.0. I called the DB schema using
Connection Manager, InfoBus Data Items, SessionInfo and
rowSetInfo.
I customised the UI form using Infoswing. As per my logic, after
user modified the data and press the SUBMIT button, I should call
the commit for the rowSetInfo.
How can I issue commit or how to resolv the modified rowSetInfo.
Previously I used Jdev1.1 and Borland's dataset and it works
fine.
Now, Oracle is not supporting Borland's dataset and AWT. So, now
I am rewritting the whole application using JDev2.0.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If your jsp is of type <ViewName>_SubmitInsertForm.jsp created by JDeveloper,then it should be having NavigationBar,EditCurrentRecord and ViewCurrentRecord, in that order
If that is the case, you should also see a "Save Changes" Button in the form, which should commit the changes to the database
