Acrobat 9 Field List

I like the Fields list that shows up when I do Forms -> Add or Edit Fields.... When I click on a field in the list, it shows up nicely with a blue background and the field on the form turns blue. But if I click on a field on the form while it turns the same blue, the field name in the Fields list has a very light grey background. Given reflections off screens and my aging eyes, this is very hard to locate. Is there any way to configure the color that is used in this list?

MadAl712,
I finally gave up on it. That gap between top of field and the first line of text within that field could allow for another line of text. Lori Kassuba posted a solution that by allowing Rich Text Formatting, the user could format the text as they enter data in such a way that eliminated the gap. I did not implement this as a solution since I could not see expecting users to go through the motion.
She did mention Acrobat Pro, InDesign, and Designer might help with this. All I have is Acrobat Standard. I would be curious as to how well you like InDesign and how you are using it. I am considering another application (InDesign might be the one) for more design capacities for forms, presentations, and web pages. So if you get a chance... thanks.

How can I get the Tables in my report to update their field lists?

I am working with Crystal Reports 2008, and I have a ReportDocument loaded in a .NET project.
I want to update the field lists of the tables (stored procedures) used in the report. I am calling "VerifyDatabase()", but this does not update the field lists. Through the designer, I accomplish this by going to the Database -> Set Datasource Location..., then clicking on the stored procedure (i.e. table) in the report, clicking on the stored procedure under the database in the bottom pane, and then clicking "Update".
How can I accomplish this in code?
Thanks for any help.

Hello,
You have to use RAS and the replace connection method. The Report Engine does not have the ability.
Search forums for "ReplaceConnection_Click" and you'll find sample code that should work for you.
Thank you

Is there any way to get the PivotTable Field List to appear in an embedded Excel Web Apps spreadsheet?

The PivotTable Field List shows up fine when using Excel Web Apps normally. It doesn't appear to be accesible via the javascript API and the main
Excel Web App cannot be embeded in a frame. Any ideas?

thanks in advance for your help

Actually, this is probably going to be a bit more efficient on large scale data. (I'm guessing, if it matters then test...)
SELECT DISTINCT HoldingsID FROM
SELECT HoldingsID
FROM tblHoldings
WHERE tblHoldings.Title LIKE '%key%'
       OR tblHoldings.Contents LIKE '%key%'
UNION ALL
SELECT HoldingsID
FROM tblHoldingsAuthorName
WHERE tblHoldingsAuthorName.AuthorName LIKE '%key%'
UNION ALL
SELECT HoldingsID
FROM tblHoldingsSubject
WHERE tblHoldingsSubject.SubjectHeadings LIKE '%key%'
UNION ALL
SELECT HoldingsID
FROM tblHoldingsPublisherName
WHERE tblHoldingsPublisherName.PublicationDate = 'key'
ORDER BY HoldingsIDThe diffence is when the sort(s) to create distinct rows is done. In the first version, UNION must produce only distinct values, so three sorts must be performed, one to create each UNION intermediate result. In the 2nd version, UNION ALL doesn't produce
distinct values, we delay the sorting until the last minute and sort all candidates once, instead of one sub-set once, one sub-set twice and two sub-sets 3 times. If this is a school project, the difference probably doesn't matter.
By the way, many databases implement the DISTINCT keyword in such a way that it creates sorted result sets, sorted by the resulting column values. As far as I know, this is not guaranteed by the SQL standard, so the additional ORDER BY clause is still needed for rigourous portability to databases that don't work that way. If that's not a concern and speed is, in many situations you can drop the ORDER BY; however for small result sets the difference is nearly invisible, and even for moderately large result sets, sorting an already sorted result set is usually an Order(n) in-memory operation. For really big results, the database will be swapping results to disk as it sorts and this sort of optimization matters then. This also applies to the use of GROUP BY.

Powerpivot pivottable - I can't add or drag a "value field" from the pivottable field list into the "values" section.

I built a pivottable using Powerpivot.
Initially, I can add or drag any data field I want to columns, Rows or the Values area inside the field list (those 4 squares). However, as times goes by...suddenly... I just no longer can add or drag a "value field" from the pivottable field list into the
"values" section.
Does anybody know how to fix this problem ?

Hi Bin Long,
I tried what you suggested.
I believe that there is a glitch in the Powerpivot field list (where you find the 4 squares for columns, rows, values, filter)
When I initially create a pivottable with powerpivot, everything works fine when I am adding field list items to the the columns, rows, values sections, filters.
However.....IF I close the powerpivot field list or if I save and close the excel file...then I cannot add more items to the "values" section.
I can comment about one thing that seems different in my powerpivot field list. When I can no longer add items to the "values" section, I realized that in the TOP section of the field list I see in bold letters a summary of the items that are SUM ∑ in the "values"
section.
Does anybody know how to fix this ?
Thanks.

How to reopen PowerPivot field list from Pivot chart in Excel 2010

Hi
I can't figure out how to open the PowerPivot fields list without having a PowerPivot table. In several sheets I use PowerPivot, but insert a PivotChart directly as a PivotTable isn't needed. It works well as long as the field list is open, but once I click
away and come back the fields list is missing and right-clicking the PivotChart only offers up chart related options. I have a few times gotten lucky and seen "Pivot fields list" as the bottom option when righ-clicking the edge of the PivotChart
allowing me to bring it back up, but I can't replicate this on a regular basis. Is there a keyboard shortcut or some ribbon option that will open the field list?
Re
D

Yes, I know and that part works, but I need a 2010 version as v1 and v2 of PowerPivot are incompatible.
Re
D
Hello,
The PowerPivot field list becomes visible when you are working with a PivotTable or PivotChart that is based on PowerPivot data.

Elvis Long

Power Pivot Field list in not displayed in Power Pivot-Ribbon / Missing Power View-Ribbon

Hi
I've got the following probem, when I add a Pivot Table from inside the Power Pivot Data Model I only get the ordinary Pivottable Field list.
When I look into the Power Pivot Ribbon there is
no 'Field list' inside the ribbon. Not even a disabled one (grey) is visible.
And there's another problem, I miss the Power View-Ribbon, there is nothing available in the ribbon, although the Power View-AddIn is activated.
My configuration
Windows 7 - 64 bit
Office 2010 - 32 bit incl. Power Pivot - everything with Power Pivot works fine
Excel 2013 - 32 bit incl. Power Pivot - here's the missing Power Pivot Field list / Power View-Ribbon
Does anyone has an idea for a solution? Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Joerg

There is no ribbon for Power View in Excel 2013, you need to go to INSERT tab > Power View Reports. Once you insert a Power View Report, you will see the Power View tab.
To answer your first question about PowerPivot, It is called PivotTabel Field List and it is not under PowerPivot tab, once you click on PivotTable, you should see at the top PIVOTTABLE TOOLS with Analyze and Design tabs.
HTH!

Powerpivot chart derived from Powerpivot table/field list

Hi
Is there a way to create a Powerpivot chart where it values are derived from a Powerpivot table?
When I am in Powerpivot, there are options to create charts, tables and both charts and tables together.
However, the chart has a separate field list than the table. Is there a way to make the chart and the table from one field list?
Paul

Hey Paul,
afaik there is no possibility. The field list cannot be configured like slicers to have an effect on this or that pivot-table / pivot-chart.
Nevertheless I don't want to disappoint you :)
You could build one pivot-table and duplicate these values to some hidden sheet on which you build on your chart. If you then change the attribute on the rows the chart should adapt (but right now I'm not sure. Imagine you change the product subcategory
(5 items) with the product (1000 items). How does the chart react?)
Does this work (for you)? :)
Kind regards
Please mark helpful posts and answers! :)

Field ZZBUDAT is delta-relevant, but does not exist in the field list

Hi All,
I have created a Generic DataSource on a View.Now there is a situation ,i need to add a Date field form some other table.
So i have enhanced the datasource now that date is coming in my datasource.
But when i tried to make delta on that date field its showing error-
Field ZZBUDAT is delta-relevant, but does not exist in the field list
Message no. R8279
Diagnosis
The DataSource uses field ZZBUDAT for specifying the delta. In the DataSource field list, however, the field does not occur
Now how i can make this field dalta relevant?
Thanks,
Piyush

Piyush,
I think the message in SAP is quite clear....
If the field ZZBUDAT does not exist in the view ... how do you expect the datasource to know which records have changed...?
The delta relevant field SHOULD be in the view - else there is no way the extractor can identify the changed records ...
Please remember that the Generic extractor is a simple select statement with a where clause on the delta relevant field and nothing else ... if you want the changed on field to come from another table - then you need to write a function module extractor to do this...
The order of processing is that - the view fields are processed first - then the enhanced fields are processed followed by the user exits...

Hi Friends,

And may I know what software version (sap gui) are you using.

Problem with a field list.

Hi people,
When I check the code of my program the system tell me that:
Unknown column name "TITLE_MEDI". not determined until runtime, you cannot specify a field list.
but the thing is that the table TSAD3 have this field and I dont know what the system tell me this.
Thanks for the help.

Hi Please Check the field is Activated or Not in the Database.
But in our Table We can see only TITLE field. ,may be that is the reason.
check it once.
please paste your code where it shows error.

Tiny Font in PowerPivot Field List

PowerPivot looks like a powerful tool for my users but I can't introduce it to them with such a tiny font in the pivot table field list. I'm using Windows 7, 1920x1200 screen resolution, Excel 2010 (EN-US), and PowerPivot 10.50.1747.0. Raising the magnification
on the document does not affect the field list.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cindy Winegarden

The PowerPivot Field List follows Excel font. So while a smaller smaller font is used by default you can increase the size without having to change
the system font size by modifying the Excel font (File | Options | General | Font) .

Power Pivot Slicer options not showing in the Pivot Table Field list

Excel 2013. In all the tutorials I watch when you create a Pivot Table using Power Pivot there are Slicer options in the
Pivot Table Fields list. Slicer Horizontal, Slicer Vertical These do not show for me. I see Filters, Value, Row, Column only. Is there a setting I need to turn on? When I click on PowerPivot
at the top, the first icon on the bar is Manage Data model, not Powerpivot as I have seen on some of the youtube tutorials. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for trying but it's not what I am after. I understand how to use Slicers with pivot tables. My question relates to Pivot Tables created using PowerPivot. Directly under the Pivot Fields list on the right is a section where
you choose what you want to pivot i.e Filters, Values, Rows, Columns. These are standard with any pivot table. When I watch videos on PowerPivot there are 2 additional options in the section. Slicer Vertical, Slicers Horizontal.
The video comments they only show in when creating a pivot table using PowerPivot. These 2 options are not there for me. I don't know why. It maybe the version of office I am using which is Microsoft Office Plus 2013. I'd like them
included. Appreciate you taking the time to help.

Aperture Import Panel - Missing field list for "add metadata from" presets

I have MacBookPro using OSX 10.5.6 and Aperture 2.1.2.
Prior to Aperture & Leopard upgrades when I imported images I had presets for basic import data (copywrite, byline, caption etc) and the list would show up on the lower right side of the import screen.
Now, although I can select a "preset list" from the "Add Metadata from" pick list nothing happens. There are no fields listed to append data to.
Not sure what is causing this but it makes adding import impossible to add any metadata.
Any suggestions. I have searched the support posts and find nothing like this solved.
Appreciate any ideas.
Cheers,
Mark

I was able to solve the problem by deleting the com.apple.aperture.plist file
First I made note of all my preferences, then I deleted the file. Closed Aperture and then re-booted the MacBookPro.
Once I rebooted and relaunched Aperture, reset preferences and closed Aperture and then restarted Aperture and now the Import panel is back to normal with the appropriate lists showing for the "add metadata from" presets.
Hopefully this will help others.
