Date Format in Input Date Component

Hi,
I am using JDev 11.1.1.3.0. I have few Input Date component in the form. I need to display the selected date in upper case. Basically the month in upper case.
Currently it displays '01-Aug-2012'. I need it to be displayed as '01-AUG-2012'.
Tried adding format but still the month is displayed in initial caps. Really appreciate if someone can help me in fixing this issue.
Thanks
SR

There is no format to archive this. Check http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html which give you all format patterns used by the inptutDate component.
I have not tried this, but you should be able to use a converter, which you have to write yourself, to make the month uppercase.
Writing your own converter is easy, for a tutorial check http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/5/tutorial/doc/bnaus.html

Use BEx variable for user input data, not to filter.

Hi,
I have a situation where I am displaying notification task data. Each header notif has a number of tasks. These tasks are marked either newest, oldest or no mark (in the middle) for each different task code.
Using VKF's and by passing the user entered variables for newest and oldest I am able to make KF calculations.
So if I have a notif that is like this:
Notif XYZ
Task 1 Code: SCM     Date: 1/1/2000
Task 2 Code: SCM     Date: 1/4/2000
Task 3 Code: SCK     Date: 1/10/2000
If the user selects Newest = SCM and Oldest = SCK
The key figure would use those 2 different notif tasks to calculate.
This works fine.
My problem now is that since the data is displayed at the line level. When the user enteres his choices for task code, BEx will filter to find one single task item that has both the Newest and Oldest values that the user entered. It will return no data.
Example:
NOTIF    TASK      NEWEST     OLDEST
XYZ.........1.......SCM
XYZ.........3..................SCK
If user enteres Newest = SCM and OLDEST = SCK
It will look for one line with both value, returning nothing.
So, I want to simply use the BEx selection screen to pass values to my virtual code (which I already have working)- but I do not want the report to filter on a notification that only has both values as OLDEST and NEWEST tasks.
Is this possible? To deactivate the BEx filtering for two infoobjects thus only passing the user entered values to my CMOD code?
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Brandon

Hi Prakash,
Can you explain what you mean? I know using a text variable would allow me to take the user entry and apply it to the header of a column... but how would it disable filtering on what was entered?
Thx

I want to implement a javascript function that completes the date field, means: when the user enters 10 in the field and presses the ENTER key on the keyboard, I want to complete the date with the current system time, like this (10/11/2011), so how can I do this...

You could write a [url http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/devguide/clientValidation.html]client-side converter to do this.

Date Component not to consider Timezone Day Light Savings

Hi,
when i use a input date component with timestamp .. where my local system timezone is Eastern Standard time (US)
Now i am selecting a date of 10 March 2013 with time 02:00:00 am , but in the text field after the selection, i am getting the date and time as 10 mar 2013 01:00:00
It is moving one hour back because day light saving occurs between 2 am to 3 am during this time of the year.
Same for 11 Mar 2012 02:00:00, day light saving does not occur on one particular day of the year... sometimes its 11 mar , 10 mar, 12 mar.. but everytime between 2 am to 3 am.
Now i am using a zulu standard time for which i have used this date component, i dont want this day light saving to be considered and change the time i enter during day light
saving period, it should give me the time that i have chosen
Is there any component in Jdev where it takes the value which we give or how can we build it where the date component comes with the time and does not change.
Thanks,

No this is not working, any other way
I am using jdev 11.1.1.5

How to set the Data Synchronisation mode for ADF BC component?

Hi All,
How to set the Data Synchronisation mode for ADF BC component
Thanks
Raghavendra

Can you clarify what you mean by the data synchronization mode?
If you mean the Sync Mode, then in 10.1.3 you set this property by:
1. Selecting your DataBindings.cpx file
2. Expanding the "Data Control Usages" section in the structure window
3. Selecting the ADFBC-based data control
4. Setting the "syncMode" property in the property inspector.
