Add checkbox on the nodes of Hierarchical tree in oracle forms 9i

Hi,
I am working on oracle forms 9i.I have to add checkbox at the place of node(+/-) in Hierarchical tree so,
that user can select or deselect the Tree.That can do in oracle forms but how i don't know.

You can't change this aspect of the Tree Control in Oracle Forms using built-in functionality. You might be able to extend the Tree Control using Java, but you have to do this yourself. : (

Suggestions to add checkbox to Report

Version : 4.1.0
Hi There,
We have a classic report on an SQL. Now there is a requirement to add some sort of a check box against each report row where the user if selected, it marks that record as a favorite. That checkbox value will be stored in the table.
If it was a tabular form, I could have just added that as a checkbox and a DB column and it would get updated when the user hit the submit button, any suggesstions on how to do this on a report? Or the only way would be to convert the report to a tabular form ? Not sure, how to capture the Radio values. Any better suggestions are also welcome.
thanks,
Ryan

Hi ryansun
you can add checkbox to your report.
Suppose this is your query report
SELECT empno,
       ename,
       job
FROM   empyou want to add checkbox to your report then try the below code
SELECT APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,empno) " ",
       ename,
       job
FROM   emp
Click on report attributes then edit the checkbox column
under column attributes
set Display as = Standard Report Column
For detail information follow the link given below
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10513_01/doc/apirefs.310/e12855/apex_item.htm#CHDDCHAF
Hope this will solve your problem.

How to add Checkbox in Table

Hi,
I want to add CheckBox in Table. my requirement is multiselection. I Implemented the following steps, but it's not working. anyone can tell me,what mistake i did?
I created two "Value Attribute"(check,Name) under a "Value Node"(Student) in context.
check - Boolean
Name - mapped a Dictionary simple Type(5 values)
Include a Table in Layout and select Create Binding on right clicking of Table.
Checked only Student and check -> Next
Selected the Editor as checkbox -> Finish
Selected Name from context and assigned to checkbox text property.
Then I deployed the application. But only one checkbox is displayed in Table without any text.
Please give me the suggestion, how to do this.
Thanks in Advance
Rajakumar

Hello,
I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding on how Checkboxes work. A Checkbox triggers a boolean value with true (checked) or false (uncheked).
When you map your name attribut to text you will see the content of that attribute as text behind. But not the metadata.
You may want to use a RadiobuttonGroup or CheckboxGroup for your purpose.

Add checkbox on header level Tab Org.data

Dear All,
My requirement is I need to add checkbox on header level Tab Org.data in ME21n or ME21.
And if checkbox is checked in the tab Org.data, it should display Terms and Conditions in the print preview.
Please suggest how to write code? Is there any user exit for transactions ME21N or ME21.
Thanks,
Rana.

hi praveen,
search this forum on how to implement a badi if you haven't done one before. also, go to transation SE18 and read the documentation on badi_fdcb_subbas01 which clearly says that its used for FB60... see the example how they have used it by going to menubar Implementation->Overview then choose FI_FDCB_SUBBAS01_EX (Example for Screen Enhancement 1 on FDCB Basic Data Screen)...you should look at the method PUT_DATA_TO_SCREEN_OBJECT and tab Subscreens where the screen exits are available to use.
In FB60, if you go to menubar System->Status and check the Program (Subscreen) and Screen Number, you'll see it'll match the program name and screen no. provided in the Subscreen tab of the BADI.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Sougata.

Between when you posted the question and the entire 50 minutes you waited for an answer, I tried compiling that code you posted, with a view to help out.
What I found was..
That code did not compile as posted.
- It was missing imports
- There was a direct reference to setLayout that applied to no member
- model was not declared properly
It also shows unchecked add warnings, please fix those before posting.
BTW - please do not remove indenting from posted code, it makes it very hard to read, replace any tabs in the source for 2-4 spaces instead. Also, code is easier to examine when it is enclosed in 'code' tags - this can be achieved by selecting the code and pressing the 'code' button above the form field we type the messages.
On the subject of what you are trying to do, please trim your example down to something that tries to create this tree form any directory structure the user might specify with a JFileChooser, because I am running a slow machine with large drives, and creating a JTree of the entire file system would take far too long.
Fix those things, and I'll take a second look.
As an aside. If you wish to get answers 'within the hour', you will probably need a consultant or a help desk. If you post to these forums, you need to be more patient.

How to add CheckBoxs to a scrollPane

I have a file I�m getting user info out of and finding certain information the
User enters, I�m making a query, I�m taking the found items and making an array of Checkboxes out of them witch is working my problem is adding the Checkboxes to the scroll Pane
public class Frame1 extends JFrame{
public static Panel listan = new Panel();
JCheckBox[] jCheckBox1 ;
JScrollPane scrollPane1 = new JScrollPane(list);
//other Window objects
//first method
private void jbInit() throws Exception {
//puts all window objects together
// Constructs user screen
list.setLayout(verticalFlowLayout1);
panel1.add(scrollPane1, new XYConstraints(118, 32, 128, 195));
// i have a find buttion that takes all infoamtion out of file
// and puts in an array then finds user enterd infomation
// this is just example code that just adds CheckBoxs to the scrollPane
// and is Basically the same way the other program does
// second method
void addcheckbox_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
jCheckBox1 = new JCheckBox[50];
for (int i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
String checkboxText = ("Checkbox #: " + (i + 1));
jCheckBox1[i] = new JCheckBox(checkboxText);
for (int i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
list.add(jCheckBox1, null);
My problem is that I can�t add the checkboxes at the second method but it works in the first, I can add in the first because I initialize in the second.

If you want something to compile here is all my example code
I will incorporate it to my 30 page program

How to add checkboxes to frames?

Hi,
I am trying to add checkboxes to a frame which will then be instantiated from an applet. I can launch the frame correctly from my applet but it always displays the last checkbox added only. So in my code below it would always display the 'Black' checkbox.
Could anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong or not doing here?
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
class Chooser extends Frame {
     Chooser(String title) {
          super(title);
          Checkbox cRed;
          Checkbox cBlack;
          CheckboxGroup cbg = new CheckboxGroup( );
          cRed = new Checkbox("Red", cbg, true);
          cBlack = new Checkbox("Black", cbg, false);
          add(cRed);
          add(cBlack);
        public boolean handleEvent(Event evtObj) {
          if (evtObj.id == Event.WINDOW_DESTROY) {
               hide( );
               return true;
          return super.handleEvent(evtObj);
     public void paint(Graphics g) {
          g.drawString("Chooser Frame",10,40);
}Thanks
Avi

add a pack() statement to your Chooser constructor as the last statement before the end of the constructor
Chooser(String title){
//    your code here
    this.pack();

How to add checkboxes to frame

So I have two classes in my package. I am having trouble adding the checkbox group to my frame. I got it to add to my applet but I can not figure out how to add it to my frame. Here is what I have so far. When I run this program it puts the checkboxes in my applet and not in my frame.
this is my painter class:
package pt;
* Title: 
* Description: 
* Copyright: Copyright (c) 2006
* Company: 
* @author unascribed
* @version 1.0
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class painter extends Applet {
private int xValue=-10, yValue=-10;
MyFrame x;
Checkbox Red, Black, Magenta, Blue, Green, Yellow;
CheckboxGroup cbg;
public void init()
x= new MyFrame("Christie's Window");
x.show();
x.resize(250,100);
cbg = new CheckboxGroup();
 Red = new Checkbox("Red", cbg,true);
 Black = new Checkbox("Black", cbg,false);
 Magenta = new Checkbox("Magenta",cbg,false);
 Blue = new Checkbox("Blue", cbg, false);
 Green = new Checkbox("Green", cbg, false);
 Yellow = new Checkbox("Yellow", cbg, false);
 add(Red);
 add(Black);
 add(Magenta);
 add(Blue);
 add(Green);
 add(Yellow);
 addMouseMotionListener(new MotionHandler(this));
public void paint(Graphics g)
g.drawString("Drag the mouse to draw", 10, 20);
g.fillOval(xValue, yValue, 4,4);
//Override Component class update method to allow all ovals
// to remain on the screen by not clearing the background
public void update(Graphics g) { paint(g); }
// set the drawing coordinates and repaint
public void setCoordinates(int x, int y)
xValue = x;
yValue = y;
repaint();
// Class to handle only mouse drag events for the Drag applet
class MotionHandler extends MouseMotionAdapter {
private painter dragger;
public MotionHandler(painter d) { dragger = d; }
public void mouseDragged( MouseEvent e)
 { dragger.setCoordinates( e.getX(), e.getY() ); }
 } and here is MyFrame class:
package pt;
* Title: 
* Description: 
* Copyright: Copyright (c) 2006
* Company: 
* @author unascribed
* @version 1.0
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MyFrame extends Frame {
MyFrame(String x){
 super(x);
 public boolean handleEvent(Event evtObj) {
 if(evtObj.id==Event.WINDOW_DESTROY) {
 hide();
 return true;
 return super.handleEvent(evtObj);
}

here's your conversion, with listeners to change the color
//import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
//public class painter extends Applet {
class painter extends Frame {
Color color = Color.RED;
private int xValue=-10, yValue=-10;
//MyFrame x;
Checkbox Red, Black, Magenta, Blue, Green, Yellow;
CheckboxGroup cbg;
//public void init()
public painter()
//x= new MyFrame("Christie's Window");
setTitle("Christie's Window");
//x.show();
//x.resize(250,100);
setSize(600,400);
setLocation(200,100);
cbg = new CheckboxGroup();
 Red = new Checkbox("Red", cbg,true);
 Red.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
 public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
 if(Red.getState()) color = Color.RED;}});
 Black = new Checkbox("Black", cbg,false);
 Black.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
 public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
 if(Black.getState()) color = Color.BLACK;}});
 Magenta = new Checkbox("Magenta",cbg,false);
 Magenta.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
 public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
 if(Magenta.getState()) color = Color.MAGENTA;}});
 Blue = new Checkbox("Blue", cbg, false);
 Blue.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
 public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
 if(Blue.getState()) color = Color.BLUE;}});
 Green = new Checkbox("Green", cbg, false);
 Green.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
 public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
 if(Green.getState()) color = Color.GREEN;}});
 Yellow = new Checkbox("Yellow", cbg, false);
 Yellow.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
 public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
 if(Yellow.getState()) color = Color.YELLOW;}});
Panel p = new Panel();
 p.add(Red);
 p.add(Black);
 p.add(Magenta);
 p.add(Blue);
 p.add(Green);
 p.add(Yellow);
add(p,BorderLayout.NORTH);
 addMouseMotionListener(new MotionHandler(this));
addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
 public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we) { System.exit(0); }});
public void paint(Graphics g)
super.paint(g);
g.setColor(color);
g.drawString("Drag the mouse to draw", 10, 75);
g.fillOval(xValue, yValue, 4,4);
//Override Component class update method to allow all ovals
// to remain on the screen by not clearing the background
public void update(Graphics g) { paint(g); }
// set the drawing coordinates and repaint
public void setCoordinates(int x, int y)
xValue = x;
yValue = y;
repaint();
// Class to handle only mouse drag events for the Drag applet
class MotionHandler extends MouseMotionAdapter {
private painter dragger;
public MotionHandler(painter d) { dragger = d; }
public void mouseDragged( MouseEvent e)
 { dragger.setCoordinates( e.getX(), e.getY() ); }
public static void main(String[] args){new painter().setVisible(true);}
}

Flex 4 - Datagrid add checkbox to a column

Hello all.
I am trying to add a checkbox to a datagrid column, so that i can use it to delete a record from the array. My datagrid is as follows
 <mx:DataGrid x="10" y="40" width="903" dataProvider="{questionsArr}" sortableColumns="false" draggableColumns="false" editable="true">
 <mx:columns>
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="No." dataField="Number" width="100" editable="false"/>
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Question" dataField="Question" />
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Delete" width="100" />
 </mx:columns>
 </mx:DataGrid>
The user inputs questions into the array via a textinput box.
But what i want to do is add a checkbox to the "Delete" column. If anyone could help me with this that would be great !

Ok, thanks both for your answers.
I have now gone about doing it the following way:
 <mx:DataGrid x="10" y="40" width="903" dataProvider="{questionsArr}" sortableColumns="false" draggableColumns="false" editable="true">
 <mx:columns>
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="No." dataField="Number" width="100" editable="false"/>
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Question" dataField="Question" />
 <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Delete" width="100">
 <mx:itemRenderer>
 <fx:Component>
 <mx:HBox horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle">
 <s:CheckBox/>
 </mx:HBox>
 </fx:Component>
 </mx:itemRenderer>
 </mx:DataGridColumn>
 </mx:columns>
 </mx:DataGrid>
It works fine, as i add a question, a checkbox gets added to the Delete column. Alls great.
But when i come to click on the checkbox, the following text gets displayed [object Object]
Then when i click away from the checkbox the checkbox reappears. With it either selected or unselected depending on what value it should be.
Is there anyway so that it dosent display the [object Object] ?

Numbers (Mavericks) - Looking to add checkbox list

I'm not completely sure but in the newest Numbers the ability to add a checkbox seems to have disappeared?

Steve,
select the cells(s) to be formatted as checkboxes, then open the Cell Formatter:
