Today's date dynamically entered into text field that user enters additional text into same field.

Trying to have today's date dynamically entered into a repeating table row textfield when the button is clicked to create each repeating row. The user can then enter addtional text into the same text field next to the date.
Example:
[4/25/2012] This is the text the user entered.
Today's date is populated in each update row created when the "Update Row" button is clicked.
The following script works but only for the first instance, not the second, third, forth, etc...
Click event: (JavaScript, client)
this.resolveNode('Table2._RowB').addInstance(1);
xfa.resolveNode("Table2.RowB.#subform.Update").rawValue
Thank you,
~Don

How do I display today's date and a date 1 month from today in livecycle designer

Hello,
Does anyone know how to display a future dates in 3 date fields that would be 1 month; 2 months and 3 months from today?
I am making a sales contract form and in a date field is today's date (which can be altered if the user needs to change it). The javascript I have is:
if
(this.rawValue == null){
var
msNow = (new Date()).getTime();
var
d1 = new Date(msNow); this.rawValue
= util.printd("mmm/dd/yyyy", d1);}
else
{ this.rawValue
= rawValue;
Then in the next date field i need to display the date 1 month from today
The third date field 2 months from today
the fourth date filed 3 months from today.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Peter,
If you need to be more exact than adding 30 days then you can use the following code;
function
addMonth(date){
var year = date.getFullYear();
var month = date.getMonth();
var day = date.getDate(); month= (month % 12) + 1; year
+= parseInt(month / 12);
var days = daysInMonth(month, year);
if (day > days) {
    day= days; }
return new Date(year, month, day);}
function daysInMonth(iMonth, iYear){
return 32 - new Date(iYear, iMonth, 32).getDate();}
You need to pass in a Date object to addMonth so (assuming DateTimeField1 is your date field);
NextMonth.rawValue= util.printd("mmm/dd/yyyy", addMonth(
= util.printd("mmm/dd/yyyy", addMonth(
Date.parse(DateTimeField1.formattedValue));

Clearing today's date otherwise insert today's date

Sorry for the bad title. I'm trying to insert today's date by default, but I want the user to be able to change it. If they leave the field blank, I want acrobat to reinsert today's date. What's wrong with my code?
var val = this.getField('Day').value;
var today = util.printd("d", new Date());
if( val == today)
    val = "";
if( val = "" )
    val = util.printd("d", new Date());
this.getField('Day').value = val;

    OnFocus -> Run a Javascript
if( this.getField("Month").value == util.printd("mm", new Date()) )
    this.getField("Month").value = "";
     OnBlue -> Run a Javascript
if (this.getField("Month").value == "")
    this.getField("Month").value = util.printd("mm", new Date());
    OnFocus -> Run a Javascript
if( this.getField("Year").value == util.printd("yyyy", new Date()) )
    this.getField("Year").value = "";
     OnBlue -> Run a Javascript
if (this.getField("Year").value == "")
    this.getField("Year").value = util.printd("yyyy", new Date());

Do I need to use javascript to get a text field in a PDF form to aut fill with current/today's date?

I have a form for booking appointments and would like the date field to automatically fill with
today's date and to print. I have set the text field's format to "Date" and when I place the cursor into the
date field, today's date shows. It disappears as soon as I tab to the next field.
Does this action require a javascript script to fill and print today's date? If so, where do I find that?
Or is there another way to format the text field (besides typing today's date) to get the current date?
Thanks.

Thank you GKaiseril!
From the examples by Chris Dahl, I edited the script in the text field editing dialog to reflect the title I had given the field. That fixed the problem of today's date disappearing as soon as I tabbed to the next field.
How do I choose for document level or page open script? I would like it to insert the date upon opening the document.
Thanks again.

Field Update workflow action - Updating today's date into a field

Hello there.
I was hoping someone might be able to help with an error currently being experienced with regards to this workflow action.
The requirement is for a workflow rule to action the printing of today's date into a custom field on an Activity record. The workflow rule condition is (PRE('<Status>') <> 'Completed') AND ([<Status>] = 'Completed'). This appears to be working and triggering the action correctly.
The custom field to be updated is of type 'Date'. The value being updated into this field is 'Today()'. Overwrite existing values is checked.
The default value for the field is also 'Today()'. Thus the workflow action involves overwriting the default value (i.e. the date the record was created) to the current date when the Status is switched to completed.
When the workflow is triggered the following error message occurs:
"Unable to evaluate workflow rule for the following reason:
Update [Custom field name] : The value '01/18/2008' cannot be converted to a date time value. (SBL-DAT-00359) (SBL-ODS-00500)"
One odd observation is that this error only occurs when trying to update activities that were created on previous days - (it will not overwrite the default value of 15/01/2008 with 18/01/2008). The workflow does not return an error message when asked to overwrite a value which is equal to itself (i.e. if the default value was 18/01/2008, the workflow runs without error, although the value stays the same as you would expect.)
Can anyone shed any light on this? One potential thought is that our CRM is set up so that all dates appear in a different format - i.e. dates appear as dd/mm/yyy, rather than mm/dd/yyyy. Could this be contributing to this issue?
Any help very much appreciated indeed.
Thanks,
Kieran
ps. The reason for doing all this is that 'Completed date' for an activity does not appear in reporting. This has been raised with Oracle and apparently an 'enhancement request' has been registered.

Guys,
using the following statement, it does display the current system time
Mid(Timestamp(),4,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),1,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),7,4)+' '+Mid(Timestamp(),12,8)
Now When i do this , it displays me a time which is 3 hours ahead
Mid(Timestamp(),4,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),1,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),7,4)+' '+Mid(Timestamp() + (3.0/24.0),12,8)
My problem is to now display the difference of the current time stamp and the the time which shows 3 hours ahead in one field
Thats is substracting the first timestamp syntax fro mthe second timestamp syntax
and ofcourse if I copy paste both the syntaxes and put a minus sign in between, it doesnt work
Timestamdiff is not allowed in workflows or field validations :(
Anyone has any ideas?

Creation of internal table dynamically based on the Date Range entered

Hi SAPgurus,
I have been facing one issue i.e creation of internal table dynamically based on the date range entered in the selection screen. For example the date range I am giving as 06/2006 to 08/2006, it should display the Fieldcatelog dynamically, this part i have completed but the only issue I am facing is to populate the sales data into that fields.
Right now my program is displaying the ALV like this.
Ex:
CSR District 06/2006 07/2006 08/2006 totals
Shiva New York 10.00
Shiva new york 30.00
Shiva new york 40.00
but it should display like this
CSR District 06/2006 07/2006 08/2006 totals
Shiva New York 10.00 30.00 40.00
80.00
Please help me in this scenario, how to acheive like this..

How do I disallow users from saving the data they enter into an Editable form?

Hi all,
I am working with a client who does NOT want their users to be able to save their data. In other words, when the user opens the PDF file, they can enter data into the editable fields, but they should NOT be able to save that data as part of the PDF.
Does that make sense?
My client doesn't want the user to be able to save a local copy of the PDF with any of the data entered onto the form.
Based on what I've found in my research, as of Version 11, Adobe Reader now allows users to save their data. Unfortunately, my client doesn't want that.
Any help?
Thanks,
Steve

About the best you can do is include a JavaScript that resets the form when it is saved, so no entered data remains in the fields. The problem with this approach is JavaScript can be disabled, resulting in the form not being cleared and allowing the filled-in form to be saved.
You can address this with an additional JavaScript that runs when the form is opened that sets all of the fields from read-only to not read-only, allowing the fields to be filled-in. If JavaScript is disabled, the script won't run when the document is opened and the fields will remain read-only and therefore not fillable.
The user would be able to work around this by having JavaScript enabled when the document is opened and disabling it after filling-in the form but before saving it. Most users would not be aware of how to do this though.
If there are rules/regulations/laws in place that require something more certain, you'll have to take a different approach.

Loading ntext data from MSSQL into Oracle - field locations vary

Good afternoon/evening everyone
I'm looking for a practical solution to a data migration issue I am running into. Here's the detail.
1. Source database is Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
2. Destination database is Oracle 11g R2.
3. Migration strategy: Use MSSQL Management Studio Export Wizard to export all tables into flat files and then use SQL*Loader to load into Oracle.
Sounds easy...Here's the problem I'm running into:
1. Several tables have ntext data.
2. The location of ntext attribute within the table varies by table.
3. The number of ntext attributes in the source table varies by table.
4. I'm using a field delimiter to split the data.
What I am running into:
1. There is nothing within the data for the ntext field that is common that would allow me to use a CONTINUEIF to cause the multiple physical records to be concatenated into a logical record.
2. The number of physical records very for creating the logical record.
3. Other data exists after each ntext attribute that is either ntext or non-ntext data.
What I'm looking for:
1. Would like to use SQL*Loader, if possible; otherwise I'll write a PL/SQL procedure to read the data, row for row, and load it into the appropriate fields.
2. Looking for ideas from the Forum experts to provide some Control File syntax that would accomplish what I'm trying to do. I'm out of ideas.
I would appreciate some assistance and some ideas if you have any.
Thanks in advance

is this what you are looking for?
select replace('this a text with\X0D\X0Ain it', '\X0D\X0A', chr(13) || chr(10)) from dualyou can do the replace directly when loading by putting "replace(:fieldname, '\X0D\X0A', chr(13) || chr(10))"
next to the field in the controll file you use with sql*loader (including the " signs). Or you can use it in an update statement.

Entering today's date

There surely should be a fast, convenient way to enter today's date in a Numbers spread. Haven't found one or reference to such and Numbers Help is no help on this one. Command-hyphen which does exactly that in FileMaker Pro, another Apple product, doesn't work in Numbers.
Right now I'm copying another date to the clipboard, selecting the target field, paste, then revise — a very tedious process.
Much appreciated.

Parsing today's date into a String

How can I parse today's date into a String using this format: dd.mm.yyyy??? I taken a look at SimpleDateFormat, but I couldn't figure it out...

Hi Herman
this is copied from the api docs:
// Format the current time.
SimpleDateFormat formatter
= new SimpleDateFormat ("yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' hh:mm:ss a zzz");
Date currentTime_1 = new Date();
String dateString = formatter.format(currentTime_1);

Difference between Two Date Should come into Text Item

Dear All,
i want to get difference between two date into text Item :P36_C in On Change java script.
i have two Date Item :P36_A and :P36_B .i have extract these date value from table then difference comes into Text Field :P36_C.
Now i want if i change Date into Item :P36_A or Item :P36_B then Defference between two date Should Come into Item :P36_C .
So i have use Java Script Code to do this
<script>
function diffdat(){
 function getVal(item){
 if($x(item).value != "")
 return parseFloat($x(item).value);
 else
 return 0;
 $x('P36_C').value =
getval((TO_DATE('P36_B', 'DD-MON-YYYY'))-
getval(TO_DATE('P36_A', 'DD-MON-YYYY')))+1;
</script>
i have put this into Item HTML Form Element Attributes
onChange="javascript:diffdat();"it's not woring .
How to work that Code with dates.
Thanks

You can always create your own difference function based on your own criteria. You can modify this to suit your needs.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION CALC_OFFICE_DAYS(date1 DATE, date2 DATE)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
v_begin_date DATE := date1;
v_end_date DATE := date2;
v_office_start_time VARCHAR2(10) := '09:30 AM';
v_office_end_time VARCHAR2(10) := '06:30 PM';
v_comp_begin_time DATE;
v_comp_end_time DATE;
v_days PLS_INTEGER := 0;
v_hrs NUMBER := 0;
v_ttltm NUMBER;
BEGIN
select trunc(v_end_date) - trunc(v_begin_date)
into v_days
from dual;
select to_date(to_char(sysdate,'DD-MM-YYYY')||' '||to_char(v_begin_date,'HH24:MI'),'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI')
into v_comp_begin_time
from dual;
select to_date(to_char(sysdate,'DD-MM-YYYY')||' '||to_char(v_end_date,'HH24:MI'),'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI')
into v_comp_end_time
from dual;
select (v_comp_end_time - v_comp_begin_time)/24 into v_hrs from dual;
IF v_hrs > 4 then
v_ttltm := v_days + .5;
ELSE
v_ttltm := v_days;
END IF;
return v_ttltm;
END;
As has been noted, this question is best posted on the PL/SQL forum.

Can i get user to put today's date in a Text entry box?

Is there any way that you can have the student enter in today's date using a text entry box? Or what can I use if this is what I want the student to have to do? I tried putting in the variable box mm/dd/yyyy and that doesn't work. Thanks

If you want to be sure that the user enters a date, perhaps this widget of Jim Leichliter could be of some interest to you:

Subscript & Superscript in dynamic and input text field in Flash

Yes, & tags are not supported by
Flash but you can
use Subscript & Superscript in dynamic and input text
field in Flash:
Download & install Subscript & Superscript fonts
from
http://www.subscriptfont.com
or
http://www.superscriptfont.com
You will need to restart Flash software after installed
fonts.
Create a dynamic text field with Arial font embeded. Set the
HTML property to true.
Create a dynamic text field with Subscript font embeded.
Create a dynamic text field with Superscript font embeded.
Use HTML tag to set text to subscript or superscript like
below:
Some text©
If you are using ActionScript to test the htmlText, use
script like below:
my_txt.htmlText = "Some textTM";
They are better than CG since it goes lower than the baseline
and it's real subscript..

Hi Nirnalatha,
I have newly joined this forum and while going through the
posts I came across your post which I thought I could help out. But
I think I am too late for the reply.
I am also into Flashlite development couple of months from
now. Coming to your questions:
1. Textbox problem: I am surprised to know that E70 mobiles
(Device central list has E70-1 only) does not show input text box
when cursor is in input box. Anyways its a good thing that you dont
get an additonal input box. Like all J2ME applications you will be
able to type the text inline. Infact we had reverse problem where I
was told to create inline edit input box instead of flashlite input
box. I think this is the mobile setting. Check the device features
in the Adobe Device Central under Flash - Standalone player - Text
and Fonts features. It will be mentioned whether inline text is
allowed or not.
2. Soft keys issues: You need to use
fscommand2("SetSoftKeys", "Previous", "Next");
and use a key listener in order to override the Mobile
Softkey commands. Check out the flashlite help which clearly
explains this.
Hope I have given youa way to solve ur problem.

Looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database

As the title of this discussion states, I'm looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database to be used for reporting. Creating the dynamic form is not a problem, it's getting it into a database that's more of a nuisance. A dynamic form is needed in order to provide skip logic, hide/reveal, and other similar dynamic features.
The database hasn't been created, so just looking for the easiest, more effective and dependable solution. The key is being able to run reports off the data later.

So i set up 2 residential grade routers to test this out. Seems to be working okayish. I believe with directional antenae routers I should achieve what I need.
As for security I configured each device separately. I set them so only allow the MAC address of the other through wireless. This seems to be the best system for me. Once they are connected even if a MAC is spoofed of the other router it drops automatically because they are always connected. My wired devices get plugged in and recieve an IP from my main network.
There more testing to be done, but it seems to be working.
Thanks for your input and suggestions guys. I will be marking this topic as answered.

Today's date dynamically entered into text field that user enters additional text into same field.
