Add items to a combo box list if not in existing list

I'm trying to set up a combo box for an expense report form.  I want users to be able to select an account from an existing combo box list or to add an account to the list if it doesn't exist already.
Ideal situation:
For example, the user has "Office Supplies" and "Meals - Business Related" as existing options in the combo box.  They need to enter a parking expense, which doesn't exist on the list, so they type in "Parking" in the combo box. They attempt to advance to the next field.  A message box pops up and says, "Do you want to add "Parking" to your list of expense options?  They click "Yes" and the combo box will now include Parking in the future.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

George,
Do you know of a way to save the list addition to the original file without saving any new form data with it? In other words, I would like the item to be on the list when the document is opened in the future, but if they just save it, it will save with the form data they've just entered.
Thanks!

  • BlackBerry World: "List is not an Active List".

    When I open BBW I'm getting a message:
    "List is not an Active List"
    Underneath that there is only 'OK' to get rid of the message, no indication as what needs to be done or any other information.
    Mine is a Q10.  I have opened and closed the BBW app several times, and also switched the device off and on again, but the message still comes up.
    Any suggestions please?
    Thanks!

    "List is not an Active List" comes up on the BBW client when the list (of apps/games/content) that you are looking at (or the list that you tapped on) has changed/expired/replaced by BBW servers. The client is waiting to pick up the updated list and is simply telling you that the list you are on or are attempting to access is not active/current.
    This is a self-correcting / temporary error and BBW will automatically  'read' the new list/contents. No user action is necessary.  However, as a user, you can help the client quicken the refresh/update by clearing the current cache (steps below) or simply close the client and wait it out (usually for an hour or less).
    Steps to clear local client cache :
    1. Launch BBW client
    2. Swipe down from the top edge and find "Settings".
    3. Tap on "Settings" > "General" > "Refresh BlackBerry World"
    4. Hit "Refresh" one more time to confirm. On success, the client will automatically exit and your cache is clear now.

  • Onlive TV listing does not show HD listing for series when I try to create a recording

    It happened now already several times the the "Online TV Listing" does not show HD listing for series when I try to create a recording. Instead, it will show two series options in SD. Is this to make people use less bandwidth?
    Here is what I am doing:
    I go to this link  https://www.verizon.com/fiostv/myservices/members/fiostv.aspx
    Then to ...........DVR Manger
    select  ...........Record A Show
    I type search e.g. Nathan for You
    I click on ........Search
    and I select ......Click here to Show Details
    Then I get to chose from 2 (the same) SD channels.
    Nathan for You
    190 Comedy Central
    Tue, Jul 29 10:30 PM
    Record Show Record Series
    Nathan for You
    190 Comedy Central
    Tue, Aug 05 10:30 PM
    Record Show Record Series
    But there is the same on channel 690 HD!
    This happens not only to this particular channel!
    I remember it used to show also the HD channels.
    The only way to schedule in HD is to find the listing in the TV schedule, at the right time and there you will get the
    correct choices for both SD & HD.
    Can this be fixed?
    Thanks!

    On the right click on HD under video quality to filter it.

  • How to hide certain items in a Combo Box

    I've two Combo Box(CB). First CB contain 4 items(drop-down menus) and the 2nd CB contain 12 items.
    I want that when I select one of the items from Combo Box1, then only 4 out of 12 items from Combo Box2 should be visible. So actually I want first combo Box to act as filter. Could this be done using the AS3 code.

    I don't think there is any way to hide items, but you can rewrite he items basd on the selectedIndex value of the cbHeight combobox.  In the code below, each element of the weightData array is an array of objects.
    import fl.data.DataProvider;
    var weightData:Array = new Array(); 
    weightData.push([{label: "100"},{label: "110"},{label: "120"},{label: "130"}]);
    weightData.push([{label: "200"},{label: "210"},{label: "220"},{label: "230"}]);
    weightData.push([{label: "300"},{label: "310"},{label: "320"},{label: "330"}]);
    function heightSelected(evt:Event):void
         var hSelected:int = evt.target.selectedIndex;
         var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(weightData[hSelected]);
          cbWeight.dataProvider = dp;

  • How to edit items of a combo box that is part of an array of clusters

    Hi,
    In the attached vi, I have an array of clusters, and each cluster contain two combo boxes. How do I edit the items in Combo Box 1 for all elements of the array? (All Combo Box 1 elements shall include the same items.)
    For illustration, I also included the trivila case, i.e., editing the items in a separate combo box that is is not part of an array of clusters (Combo Box 3). Please advise. Thanks.

  • Auto-Suggest feature in Combo-box LOV is not displaying non-unique values

    Hi,
    I have an auto-suggest feature implementation on a combo-box lov that displays the name and email-id of a list of people. There are non-unique names in the back-end, for example :
    Abraham Mason [email protected]
    Abraham Mason [email protected]
    But when I use the auto-suggest feature and type in, say 'Ab', instead of showing both the Abraham Masons the auto-suggest displays only one of the values.
    As in the example above the email-ids of the two Abraham Masons are different and unique.
    If I use the conventional drop down menu of the combo-box then both the values are visible.
    Is the auto-suggest feature implemented in a manner so as to display only unique values?
    This is the implementation of the auto-suggest feature that I have done -
    <af:column headerText="#{bindings.RqmtAtLevel1.hints.Owner.label}"
    id="c23" sortable="true" filterable="true"
    sortProperty="Owner"
    filterFeatures="caseInsensitive">
    <af:inputComboboxListOfValues id="ownerId"
    popupTitle="#{ResourcesGenBundle['Header.SearchandSelect.Searchandselectanobjectusingad']}: #{bindings.RqmtAtLevel1.hints.Owner.label}"
    value="#{row.bindings.Owner.inputValue}"
    model="#{row.bindings.Owner.listOfValuesModel}"
    required="#{bindings.RqmtAtLevel1.hints.Owner.mandatory}"
    columns="#{bindings.RqmtAtLevel1.hints.Owner.displayWidth}"
    shortDesc="#{bindings.RqmtAtLevel1.hints.Owner.tooltip}"
    autoSubmit="true">
    <f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.Owner.validator}"/>
    <af:autoSuggestBehavior suggestedItems="#{row.bindings.Owner.suggestedItems}"/>
    </af:inputComboboxListOfValues>
    </af:column>

    Hi,
    don't find a bug entry about this, so if this indeed is a defect then this has not been filed. Do you have a test case ? If you have please zip it up and send it in a mail to me. My mail address is in my OTN profile (just click on my name until you get to the profile). Pleas rename the "zip" extension to "unzip" and mention the JDeveloper release you work with. The test case should work against the Oracle HR schema.
    If you need to track the issue, I suggest to file a service request with customer support yourself

    Could you help me with one real world use case where we need to traverse linklist and arraylist in backward direction other than printing the linklist or arraylist in reverse order. One example is that you might want to use it as a stack. For a very large (+very+ large) stack it would out-perform the Vector-based Stack in the API.The first thing that pops into my head is an undo/redo function for a text editor. Each edit action is dumped onto such a stack. Each time you hit CTRL+Z to undo an action you go back in the stack. Each time you hit CTRL+Y to redo the action you go forward again.

  • Distribution List does not enroll all list users

    I have enrolled a distribution list to my curriculums. Normally it has always enrolled all of the people attached to the list. In this case, I am finding that several of the people that are in the list are not getting enrolled for any of the curriculums. We have had a limit of 800 people on a list in the past. This list has about 250 people. What could cause the individual people on the list to not be enrolled?

    Thank you -K-, the generated flag in all_objects is set for the "missing" tables. I did not create the tables but they were probably created by an import (imp) - would this have set the generated flag? These are not system generated in the sense of Java object tables for example.
    I have now done a search on "system generated flag" and found your post back in 2006 about this. Other messages seem to acknowledge this as a bug, but 3 years later it is still there! Unfortunately I cannot log on as sys to these databases and the DBA is unlikely to look kindly on your workaround. (Although I agree it would be harmless.)
    I will not mark this as answered just yet as I would like to see if it reminds anyone else of this issue. Maybe a warning message could be displayed if you edit a table marked with the generated flag, something similar to the way XP or Vista warns you about changing system files until you tell it to go away....

  • Cant make a list/combo box that enters a different value to what you chose

    Hi Any help will be very much apreciated,
    Iv been turning my timesheet into a P.D.F form for filling out it started as an excell spread sheet and iv bassicialy just put txt boxs over the fields that need filling in and if made the "total" box add up all the hours so its great so far
    but the problem i have is for the Premises number section i want to be able to give the user a selection of all the properties but have a number entred into the actual fields for example... you chose "smiths road sainsburys" from a list but the job number "1234" is entred into the form for printing/sending
    Thanks anyone.

    If I understand what you want, you can use a text box in addition to a combo box for this. For each item in the combo box, set its export value to the number you want. Then in the text box that will display the number, use the following custom Calculate script:
    event.value = getField("combo1").value;
    Replace "combo1" with the name of the combo box.
