Thanks for your help

Hi Rosalin,
Loop the hidden table, get the values and populate drop down in each iteration.
DropDownList1.addItem("Text","Value");
You can use one more solution for this scenario. If it is a matter of 2,3 dropdowns, put three dropDowns in the form layout and give seperate static data binding to them. At run time make the dropDowns hide/visible as per the requirement.
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards,

Dynamic drop down list in Adobe forms

I have created a drop down list using enumerated drop down list from webdynpro native tab and binded in the object palette by giving $record.sap-vhlist.DESCR\.DATA\.FIELD.item[]* in the list items dynamically.DESCR is the field in the internal table into which i fetched data from the database table .I have written this code in a BADI.I dont know whether my form's display type is activex or native? I am not getting any values in the drop down list.can anybody please tell me what might be missing and how should i know whether my form is ActiveX or Native?
My form is called from portal so i have used BADI to connect portal to form

Hi sarang,
I have done a dynamic drop down list in which DESCR field comes from database table and pops into the drop down dynamically. I was working for a PCR scenario so the adobe form was called from portal.I will tell u all the required steps.It might work for u as it is working for me:
1.In the form:
I used two elements from library first is a "ENUMERATED DROP DOWN LIST NO SELECT" from web-dynpro native tab and second is "ISR_TEXT DISPLAY INVISIBLE ON EDIT MODE" from ISR controls tab.Place them one on other inthe form.
For drop down list the setting are:
     In object, field tab click on list items there in ITEMS put :$record.sap-vhlist.DESCR\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*].in ITEMS TEXT write text in ITEMS KEY write key.
     In binding,in default binding put $record.DESCR.DATA[*].FIELD.
For text element the settings are:
     In binding,default binding put Normal.
     when we select ISR_TEXT DISPLAY INVISIBLE ON EDIT MODE it automatically comes with calculated read only int he value tab.so open script editor and place the below code:
$record.DESCR.DATA.FIELD (in calculate).
2.Now the code in BADI is as follows:
In BADI we have to write the code for drop down list in the METHOD "SCENARIO_SET_ADDITIONAL_VALUES"
As i didnt change the standard BADI i added an enhancement spot in which i wrote a function module which fills ADDITIONAL_DATA. and the below code fills the ADDITIONAL_DATA .
DATA: t_t572b TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t572b WITH HEADER LINE,
        t_t554t TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t554t WITH HEADER LINE.
SELECT * FROM t572b INTO TABLE t_t572b WHERE sprsl EQ 'E'.
CLEAR ls_additional_data-fieldindex.
LOOP AT t_t572b.
    ADD 1 TO ls_additional_data-fieldindex.
    ls_additional_data-fieldname ='DESCR_KEY'.
    ls_additional_data-fieldvalue = t_t572b-descd.
    APPEND ls_additional_data TO additional_data.
    ls_additional_data-fieldname ='DESCR_LABEL'.
    ls_additional_data-fieldvalue = t_t572b-descr.
    APPEND ls_additional_data TO additional_data.
    CLEAR t_t572b.
ENDLOOP.
For DESCR field the we have to declare DESCR_KEY and DESCR_LABEL in the place holders for key values and palce holders for default values in characteristics tab(where all the fields for the form are defined) of ur respective scenario.(where ur pcr scenario is defined)
Hope ur problem got resolved.
Please let me know if any doubts.
If ur form is not called from portal and u want a dynamic drop down list the difference is put a data drop down list and in object, field tab click on list items there in ITEMS select the field into which u populated the data from the database table (this code shud be written in code Initialization in the respective interface) and in ITEMS TEXT put $ in ITEMS KEY put $.and in binding as we normally do bind it to the respective field in which the data is populated from database table.
It should work.

How to populate data from table into datagrid in form

hi there. may i know how to populate data from a table into a datagrid? i have created a datagrid in a form using OLE's microsoft datagrid. i'm having problem to populate data from table into the grid. can i know how to do that? thanks

Not exactly. I want to enter input from form and the user can have all options to choose i.e. HIGH, MEDIUM or so on.
Suppose, you have option to select HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW and you can see all these options together. You select LOW and when you save, it is saves in the table as a value. So when you view the table again, it will show LOW as active and HIGH and MEDIUM are null.

Dynamic Drop-down list - selected value can't be cleared ...

1. check out the following code of a dynamic drop down list using cursor :-
DECLARE
     -- DROP-DOWN LIST OF ALL DEPARTMENTS
     TEMPNUMBER NUMBER(2) := 2 ;
-- Because we've to initialize the list
-- at least with 1 item.
CURSOR C_DEPT IS
     SELECT DEPT_ID FROM DEPARTMENT;
BEGIN
     ABORT_QUERY ;
     CLEAR_LIST('DEPTLIST');
     FOR TEMP IN C_DEPT LOOP
     ADD_LIST_ELEMENT( 'DEPTLIST', TEMPNUMBER, TEMP.DEPT_ID, TEMP.DEPT_ID );
     :SRBLOCK.LST := TEMP.DEPTNO;
     -- prev. line set the newly selected value
     TEMPNUMBER := TEMPNUMBER + 1 ;
     END LOOP;
END;
2. problem is as we've to atleast initialize with one list item... that item can't be cleared with CLEAR_LIST.
3. how can i actually clear that and still use cursor. because i've searched forum for this thing and found all those code not working ... for my project ...
4. quick help needed ...

Hi Omar,
I have solution for you
To populating or refreshing the lists you can use
two procedures:
One of them - generic, which can be used for all types of list
Another is specific which contain a SQL statement to retrieve the data for
particular list.
1. Specific procedure:
PROCEDURE GET_DEPARTMENT_LIST
IS
sql_stat VARCHAR2(32767);
ret_code NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- SQL Statement for Drop-down List
-- (must have two columns for label and value - both VARCHAR2)
sql_stat := ' SELECT DEPARTMENT_NAME,TO_CHAR(DEPT_ID)'
||' FROM SCHEMA.DEPARTMENT';
POPULATE_MY_LIST('BLOCK.DEPARTMENT_LIST',sql_stat,ret_code);
END;
2. Generic procedure:
PROCEDURE POPULATE_MY_LIST
(item_name VARCHAR2,
sql_stat VARCHAR2,
out_code OUT NUMBER)
IS
rg_id RECORDGROUP;
rg_name VARCHAR2(100);
ret_code NUMBER;
item_id ITEM;
BEGIN
     item_id := FIND_ITEM(item_name);
     IF ID_NULL(item_id) THEN
          out_code := -1;
          RETURN;
     END IF;
     --Creating Record Group with Unique Name
     rg_name := 'RG_'||SUBSTR(item_name,INSTR(item_name,'.',1)+1,LENGTH(item_name));
     --Checking Record Group Name for existance
     rg_id := FIND_GROUP(rg_name);
     --If Group does exist - delete it
     IF NOT ID_NULL(rg_id) THEN
          DELETE_GROUP(rg_id);
     END IF;
     --Creating Record Group
     rg_id := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name,sql_stat);
ret_code := POPULATE_GROUP(rg_id);
IF (ret_code <> 0) THEN
     out_code := ret_code;
     RETURN;
END IF;
POPULATE_LIST(item_name,rg_id);
IF NOT FORM_SUCCESS THEN

Get/Set values from a drop down list

I am trying to modify the http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/web/web-jpa-part2.html so that instead of entering the data from a text field (in update & add) the values come from a drop down list from a table. I have drop down lists that are populated bothe from the DB and hard coding. When I run, I am able to see the options on the DDs. But none of the CRUD work. I think this is because my set and get for the drop down is wrong. Then again, I also have a few text fields from the original example which also don't seem to work. Here is a piece of my addButton():
        RowKey[] selectedRowKeys = getTableRowGroup1().getSelectedRowKeys();
        PaymentDetails[] pv = getSessionBean1().getPaymentVoucher();
        int rowId = Integer.parseInt(selectedRowKeys[0].getRowId());
        PaymentDetails upPV = pv[rowId];
        bankCodeDD.getSelected();
        statusDD.getSelected(); // hard coded value
      upPV.setPrepBy((String) prepByField.getText());
      PaymentDetailsController pvController = new PaymentDetailsController();
        pvController.addPaymentDetails(upPV);
        addRequest = false;
        return null;How do I set and get the values from the drop down so than it passed to my bean? When I choose a row to be updated, make changes and click Update, I get this message on my Tomcat:
com.sun.webui.jsf.component.DropDown::The current value of component form1:deptCodeDD does not match any of the selections.
Did you forget to reset the value after changing the options?Can someone please point me to a place which shows how I can add a default value from my DD? I tried to follow http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/dropdowncomp.html, but unable to complete because I get an error for Options api. The auto-fix imported import org.apache.jasper.Options; But the package given in the tutorial is com.sun.webui.jsf.model.Option. My Java version is 1.6.0_07.
private Options listOptions[];
...//getter setter goes here
listOptions = new Option[noofDBRows + 1];Many Thanks!

I don't guess what I may add.
The contents of the table named lookup appear on the screenshot.
cell A1 contains the string One-Piece, cell B1 contains the 'associated' value 160.
cell A2 contains the string Two-Piece, cell B2 contains the 'associated' value 130.
cell A3 contains the string Three-Quarter, cell B3 contains the 'associated' value 150.
Now table Main
In column B the cells contain a pop_up menu with four items like the ones described by Jerrold.
In column C of the cells contain the formula :
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B,Tableau 2 :: A:B,2,FALSE),"")
I enhanced it since yesterdays because I forgot to treat the case when cell is blank in column B.
I apologize but as I'm using my machine in French, the screenshot display the French formulas.
I repeat that you may find useful infos in the PDFs files which we may download from the menus:
Help > Numbers User Guide
Help > iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide
As you are in Stoke-on-Trent maybe your system is set to use the comma as decimal separator.
If it's that, you must replace the comma by semi-colons in the formulas (you may see them in my screenshot).

Hide id from drop-down list at the top of the detail tab

Hello Nakisa experts!
I have one more question about Nakisa OrgChart 4.0 SP 1.
How can I hide position and org unti id from drop-down list at the top of detail tab, see picture below:
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure you're going to be able to change this. I think (but I'm afraid I don't know for sure) the section is defined by \WEB-INF\uitemaplates\com\nakisa\manager\omg\ui\subucs\sectionDesigners\DetailHistoryButtonSectionSubUC.xhtml, which after a quick search through the application looks as though it might be populated by a NakisaTrollBin.jar ... which isn't really something you should be looking to edit.
Nakisa do often write in various settings that can allow features to be tweaked and enabled/disabled. It could be that there's something you could add into SettingsResources to apply the change you require, but you would need to contact Nakisa about this as they don't document all of these options.
All this being said I would query why this is being done. It is not uncommon to say have multiple positions with the same name - e.g. HR Administrator might exist in several org units. If you are looking through several identically named org units or positions, the unique identifier is going to be the object's ID. As such it seems most logical to me to keep the ID in the history to allow a user to discern the difference between identically named positions/org units.
Regards,
Stephen.

Displaying user selection from drop down list in static text on master page

Hello,
I am using LC 7.0 at workk and I have hit a road block.
I have a drop down list at the top of the form. Once the user makes a selection, I want to take that value and paste it in static text located on the master page. I can't seem to get it to work.
Please help!!!

Hi,
Place the Drop Down list on form
Place text object(s) on master page
here is the script to display the value and/or text of drop down
Script will be on Drop Down list events
Calculate event to display value of DD - FormCalc
form1.pageSet.Page1.StaticText1.rawValue = this.rawValue;
Change event to display Text of DD - JavaScript

Detail region does not refresh when selecting from a drop-down list in master region

I am using DW CS3 and have updated to version 1.6.1 of Spry. Using an XML dataset, I am able to create a Spry table as the master region that links to a detail region that displays a small JPG graphic. It works fine in this format (clicking on a row displays the correct graphic). However, my table has 80 rows and requires the user to do too much scrolling. So I changed the master region to a drop-down repeat list, but the graphic does not change when a new selection is made in the drop down list. Listed below is the code produced when I used the insert Spry Repeat List. I got the same results when adding a spry:setrow="dsChartNurse". I also tried -- onclick="dsChartNurse.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}');" -- which again made no difference.
When I removed children from the spry:repeat, the master region displayed as a two column list of all 80 items in a drop-down list format.
<div spry:region="dsChartNurse">
       <select name="select" spry:repeatchildren="dsChartNurse">
         <option value="{name}">{name}</option>
       </select>
</div>
<div id="image" spry:detailregion="dsChartNurse">
   <img src="{dataimage}" align="center" style="margin:50px 0 0 0"width="320" height="164" />
</div>
Thanks so much to anyone who can help correct my code in order to have a drop-down list display information correctly in the detail region.

Thanks for the quick reply. I did solve the problem I was having by changing from onclick to onchange in the master region. But, now I have another problem with, of course, IE. I just put in online at http://www.minursemap.org/ageDistNurse.html. When opened in IE, the drop down list displays the last entry, but the image is for the first in the list. Thanks again for your help.

Firefox 3 used to have a drop down list under the back button for recent pages. How do I get this in FF4?

FF3 used to have a drop down list of the most recent pages that a tab had displayed under the back arrow button. FF4 does not appear to have this. How can I see history of what's been displayed in the tab say four or five pages back?

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

In Firefox 4, how do I get back the context menu for the drop down list of the Location Bar so I can Open Link in New Tab, which I did often in FF 3?

Firefox 3 has a context menu for the drop down list of
the Location Bar. One option on this menu I used often
is "Open Link in New Tab" -- quite convenient.
This context menu has disappeared in Firefox 4.
Can I get it back?

See also:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember search and form history"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Form+autocomplete
The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.<br />
Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.<br />
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".<br />

Drop Down List - Setting the Default Selected Item

I have a drop down list in my application that gets populated by a remote database. When you select an item from the list, a screen full of thumbnails is populated based on the selection. We have decided that when the user gets to this component in our air application, that it looks too empty and barren. All that displays is a drop down list with an empty screen. So we would like to set a default setting for the drop down list so that when the user gets to this component, a screen full of thumbnails is awaiting them and they can change it if they want. My first instinct was just to set the selectedIndex property of the drop down list to the value that we want as the default, and that works, but it only changes the label in the dropdownlist, it doesn't actually populate the screen with the thumbnails. That is because when an item is selected, it has to be commited to the drop down list by a CLOSE event that then sets off the close handler that populates the screen with thumbnails. So after looking at the documentation, I found that there is a method called closeDropDown that states the following:
closeDropDown
method
public function closeDropDown(commit:Boolean):void
Close the drop-down list and dispatch a DropDownEvent.CLOSE event.
Parameters
commit:Boolean — If true, commit the selected data item.
When I use this method, nothing happens. In fact if I add a listener for the CLOSE event, the close event isn't getting fired. So I am a little befuddled. The only thing that I can figure is that I am setting the selectedIndex and not the selectedItem before I call the closeDropDown method, and if you look above, the documentation vaguely states that that "If true, commit the selected data item". Do I need to set the selectedItem and not the selectedIndex? If so, I am not exactly sure how to do this since I am using a service to populate my drop down list which kind of makes the dataprovider a little unclear to me in the code because it gets replaced by an AsyncListView. Here is what I have.
<fx:Script>
     <![CDATA[
        protected function dropDownList_creationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void{
          getAllAudio_descriptionsResult.token = audiodescriptionsService.getAllAudio_descriptions();
          getAllAudioResult.token = audioService.getAllAudio();
     private function audioDescriptionsCallResponderHandler(event:ResultEvent):void {
          audioDesc = event.result as ArrayCollection;
     private function audioCallResponderHandler(event:ResultEvent):void {
          audio = event.result as ArrayCollection;
          audioDescDropDown.selectedIndex = 2;
          audioDescDropDown.closeDropDown(true);

     <s:AsyncListView list="{getAllAudio_descriptionsResult.lastResult}"/>
</s:DropDownList>
I would really appreciated hearing from anyone who has experience or insight into setting a default for a drop down list and actually forcing it to execute that default selection. Any thoughts at all would be helpful. Thanks!

I don't see your close handler in the code you posted, so if you provided it and I missed seeing it, please forgive me. I'm a bit unclear on why the open and close of your dropdown list is so critical to your functionality. It seems to me that the page of data would be tied to the item selected in the drop down (which to my mind is the only purpose for the drop down to be there). So why do you first need to open and close the drop down, rather than just taking the selected value and doing whatever you'd normally do with it to populate that page?
What I'm getting at is that I'd expect that page to be a separate component that would just have a property for the selected "thing", and that you could populate it either manually, as I suggested, or through the close handler on your drop down--I wouldn't think that there should be a need to go through the close handler every time. Even if you don't have it implemented the way I'm thinking, you may want to think about whether you need to go through the close handler every time, or whether you could break it out so that the close handler simply determines which item to select, then jumps to another function that actually does something with the selected value. That way, you don't have to go through the overhead of opening and closing the drop down if you need to change its value programmatically.
