Creating a mask for field input

I have a cfinput that requires the serial number for a piece of equipment. The number is always something like J123M456789 where the J or the M could be any letter and the 123 and 456789 could be any number that is 3/6 characters. The code i am using for my input is as follows:
<cfinput type="text" name="IDnumber" message="You must enter an 11 character meter number" mask="A999A999999" validateat="onSubmit" validate="maxlength" required="yes" class="SERIAL"id="IDnumber" maxlength="11" width="240" minlength="11">
I am still able to enter any number, any which way i choose.
Can anyone help?

Woops, my bad
Some of the validation is working. It is forcing me to input a letter, 3 numbers, a letter and then numbers again. The trouble is it will let me submit at any time. In otherwords if I place 11 characters in the text field, they must be in the proper format however i cant get it to force me to enter exactly 11 characters.
HELP!!!!!

Create search helps for fields of custom tables

Hi,
Could any one please provide me the step by step process to create search helps for fields in custom tables?
Thanks in advance,
Nobin.

Hello Nobin
There is basically no difference between a search help for standard vs. customer tables.
An important choise is the selection method for your search help:
Either you use your custom table, a view or a search help user-exit if you need to implement very specific requirements.
Assuming that you can use your DB table as selection method the further implementation of the search help is quite straightforward:
(1) Define the parameters you would like to have a selection criteria (SPos = SPos) and which should appear on the result list (= LPos).
(2) Define the parameters that can be used as input for the selection (flag IMP) and are returned by the search help (flag EXP)

I'm afraid that I cannot get it. I had a look at the docs you suggested before posting, and still, no luck (...)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(dialog, "Please input info");Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong and I cannot add the JDialog to the JOptionPane?Re-read the API and tutorial. JOptionPane is meant specifically to spare you from instantiating manually a JDialog. The showXxxDialog(...) methods do create a JDialog of their own, based on the contents supplied as arguments.
In particular, using the 2-arguments variation showMessageDialog(Component parentComponent, Object message):
- The first argument parentComponent is not be the dialog you want to display, but the component over which you want the dialog to appear. The most typical value are this or null.
- The second argument is the "message" to display, but as described in the API, it can be a JComponent, that is, even a JPanel with child widgets (in a word, a JPanel containing the specific form you'd display in the dialog if you were writing the dialog manually).
Again, at the risk of insisting densely, I'm only quoting the API an tutorial, so please read them attentively.
Edited by: jduprez on Nov 2, 2009 2:29 PM - Sorry Kevin, hadn't seen you latest reply. I completely subscribe to the thought process you recommend.
Edited by: jduprez on Nov 2, 2009 2:32 PM
Thinking about it further, I don't completely subscribe... Indeed it looks like a bad idea to make the OP wonder about dialog.setVisible() when JOptionPane enables him to forget about the hand-made dialog. I stand by my own advice ("JDialog" should not even appear in this code extract).

Hi Lalitha,
To have F1 help documentation, you need to create Documentation by pressing Documentation button in the Change Data Element screen (SE11)
If you need certain values for the field through F4 help then you need to specify the values in the Domain of this Data element (SE11)

How do i create a mask for an application?

Hello.
I pulled out an flex app out of Flash catalyst, and it has several "fx:designLayer"s containing images that slide off the stage.
I'd like to hide the images going outside the stage borders with a mask.
I tried:
<s:mask>
    <s:Group id="mask">
        <s:Rect width = "100" height="100">
            <s:fill>
                <s:SolidColor color="#FF0000"/>
            </s:fill>
        </s:Rect>
    </s:Group>
</s:mask>
but all I see is blank.
I tried to set mask = "{mask}" inside the <s:Application > tag and removing the <mask> tags, which works, but it gives me a warning that bindings to mask cannot be detected.
How do I get the mask for the app with no warnings?
And just for the sake of understanding Flex, how could I fix either one of those approaches?

Defining a Group as the mask doesn't seem to work because the Group is never
put on the display list so it doesn't draw its content. Other examples I
saw were using FXG will compiles down into Sprites that draw automatically.
I don't normally do masking like this, I just draw a filled Sprite and
assign it as the mask.
One way I found that worked was this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
               xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
               xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="800"
minHeight="600"
               backgroundColor="#66DDFF"
                >
    <fx:Declarations>
    </fx:Declarations>
    <s:Group id="mask" includeInLayout="false" visible="false" >
        <s:Rect x="300" y="10" width="600" height="200">
            <s:fill>
                <s:SolidColor color="#FF0000"/>
            </s:fill>
        </s:Rect>
    </s:Group>
    <s:Rect height="341" id="myRandomThing" width="800" x="79.5" y="86.5" >
        <s:fill>
            <s:LinearGradient rotation="270" scaleX="341" x="115.5" y="341">
                <s:GradientEntry color="#222222" ratio="0"/>
                <s:GradientEntry color="#FFFFFF" ratio="1"/>
            </s:LinearGradient>
        </s:fill>
        <s:stroke>
            <s:SolidColorStroke color="#333333" weight="10"/>
        </s:stroke>
    </s:Rect>

Steps to create substitution rule for field BSEG-RECID

MIRO generates FI document. FI document has BSEG-RECID field. I need to apply substitution for BSEG-RECID depending on the value of the RSEG-GEBER field in MIRO. The substitution must be activated only if account to be booked is PL account in FI and derived MM document based on ZNPP PO type.
Field values are as follows:
RSEG-GEBER     BSEG-RECID
No value                          No value
N                              N
D                              D
A                              A
Could anyone please let me know the steps to create the above substitution rule for the FI document
Thank You

Hi,
You can do it as below:
Prerequisite : Select the document type for which you want check, here you have to select the BKPF-BLART = " " (Give the document type for the MIRO)
Substitution: Use the User exit with the logic as you said.
If you want you can use the user exit in both PREREQ & SUBSTITUTION. It will be applicable in your case

Please help! error -61399, how to create custom vi for every input in project explorer

Please help! I have been trying whole night but couldn't get through it.
I am creating custom vi to simulate cRIO inputs on development computer. ( FPGA target>>execute vi on>> development computer>>custom vi) I then follow tutorial creating test benches:
Tutorial: Creating Test Benches (FPGA Module)
but when I run fpga vi I get error -61399, input item/node is not supported (input item/node is my input which I've added from project explorer).
The closest I got in my research on why this error is occuring- I have not connected all inputs/outputs in project explorer to custom vi. I followed tutorial exactly step by step but still I couldn't get through it.
Please help! Please help!
In order to do further investigation, I converted custom vi to a state machine , please find attachment. Having highlight execution on, it clearly demonstrates that input in cRIO are not being selected as a result default cases execute.
Please find attached modified custom vi with state machine, fpga vi, and original custom vi.
Best regards
Ta

Solution:
You will see this error if no Custom VI has been selected or the Custom VI has not been configured for every I/O item that you are using in your FPGA code???
I think that's exactly where I'm stuck!
How do I configure it for inputs??? My attachement show that I have done everything being asked in tutorial!
Thanks!

Creating dynamic id for an input textbox?

I have a datatable in my jsf page in which I need to create an input textbox that must have dynamic values for id attribute and not the hard coded one. What is the possible way to generate that??

Not directly. But why would you? Don't you see a pattern in the generated ID's? Did you check the generated HTML output? If this problem is Javascript related, are you familiar with the 'this' reference?

Create a variable for user input entry to act as i/p to anothr variable

Hi,
I have a requirement in my report where i have two variables one is user entry called "A" the a other user exit "B" and the query is based on an ods.
<b>
Scenario:</b> If the user were to enter a string XXX in A, i need to do a search on certain columns in ODS and store the corresponding keys (single column) in an internal table and the internal table column will act as multiple single values for variable B .
<b>Questions:</b>
1. How to get the value entered in A.(so i can do select statement on ODS table).
2. In the select statement we need to specify FROM table, so what would the ods table name be.
3. How to store the values from the select statement into the internal table.
4.How to populate the values in internal table into variable B.
5.Once all this is done i need to reset the variable A to empty.
p.s: ABAP code for any of the following would be highly appreciated.

hi Karthik,
1. you can try
LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
              WHERE VNAM = 'varA'.
              l_var = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.
2. ods table name = /bic/a[odsname]00 or /bi0/a[odsname]00
3. use select .... from... into table ...
4. loop at that internal table and populate as sample code
5. try to create a RKF with restriction to variable A, and hide this keyfigure,
    not use in reporting.
hope this helps.

Create Error Message for wrong input of time (VC 7.1)

How can I check this? And if the users entered a wrong time format how can I post an error message?
Or does anybody has any other solution to handle this? But I must say to it that I don't want to use an ABAP RFC to solve this problem.

We have created an infoset based on LDB PCH.
(The infoset contains object type O only).
For the object-id field the users want search help when choosing this field for selection.
Using "start via selection screen" does not give a good solution.
Can anyone explain how I can create search help for fields in an infoset?
