Boxing with Combo box

I seem to get an "Exception caught while loading

box feed from an XML
the xml :

Isn't that a funny bug?

I suspected that was the goal, but your code seems a lot more
complex than that, like you wanted to load another data set
onChange.
See if this works for you:
<script src="SpryAssets/includes/xpath.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="SpryAssets/includes/SpryData.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/JavaScript">

</script>
<script language="JavaScript">
function openURL( form ) {
var newIndex = form.urls.selectedIndex;
if ( newIndex == 0 ) {
alert( "Please select a location!" );
} else {
newurl = form.urls.options[newIndex].value;
window.location=( newurl );
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div spry:region="dsURLs">
<form name="form"><select name="urls" id="urls"
onChange="openURL(this.form)">
<option selected="selected">Select a
Location</option>
<option value="{@file}" spry:repeat="dsURLs"
>{@base}</option>
</select></form>

Access 2010 - How to display data from a table into a text box upon combo box selection?

Hi
I have a a table with 5 columns: month, year, USD, SGD, BAHT.
I created a form with a combo box for selection of the month and year, and I would like to set adjacent text boxes to show USD, SGD, BAHT information. How can i go about doing that?
From the Q&A here, most of them uses the function similar to this "=[Combo0].[Column](1)" to show the data in the text box, but this would require the combo box to list a whole bunch of details if i were to add in more currency values to the
table. Is it possible to not show this information in the combo box, but still populate data in the textboxes base on a selection on only the "month" and "year" in the combo box.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show only the month/year in the combo box, we can choose the date, and it will display the value of USD/SGD/BAHT based on the month/year.
If it is, I recommend you try the steps:
Create a form based on your data source table>Add the combo box>combo box wizard>Find a record on my form based on the value I selected my combo box>Add mouth and year to selected fields

If I misunderstand something, please let me know. We may upload some screenshots or a sample through OneDrive.

Can I attach a specific action to a choice in a list box or combo box?

I have a list of 26 sports that I would like people to choose from--in either a list box or combo box or any other tool that would work best. When they choose a particular sport, I would like another PDF to appear with the roster for that sport for this year, allowing them to check off certain players. Is this possible? Everything I see is in javascript or some other language that I don't know.
Thanks.

I am piling on Gary's question, as I would like to know the answer as well. But first a little more color in case there is another way to do this....
When I get an email, I usually take some sort of action. I currently do not have a good way to note the actions I have taken against any particular email. This is why I want to know how to attach a note or a To Do to a particular email. I thought the To Do list would work, but when I type a To Do with a particular email sometimes it appears in the list and sometimes it doesn't.
So my goal is to have a way to create a history of action against a particular email.
Gary, I hope this is a valuable extension to your request as opposed to a diversion from your original intent. With any luck together we'll get a bit more traction for your request.
Thanks.

If check box then combo box

Hi there,
I have been searching for the answer for this question.
I am trying to write JavaScript for the following situation. If my check box is selected then the values of combo box 1, combo box 2, and combo box 3, will all read "N/A". My fields in each combo box is " " "yes" "no" and "N/A" If someone could help me out with this answer that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi
You need to use following Javascript code in Acrobat form to achieve your requirement.
if((this.getField("CheckBox1").isBoxChecked(0)))
this.getField("Dropdown1").value = "N/A";
this.getField("Dropdown2").value = "N/A";
this.getField("Dropdown3").value = "N/A";
if((!this.getField("CheckBox1").isBoxChecked(0)))
this.getField("Dropdown1").value = " ";
this.getField("Dropdown2").value = " ";
this.getField("Dropdown3").value = " ";
Please see attached PDF for reference.

Newb deserving assistance with Adobe Javascript (check boxes and combo boxes)

Hi, I'm a newb when it comes to javascript (using adobe acrobat pro 6.0).
I am working on a form that will allow me to autofill checkboxes based off of information chosen. Ideally, I would like to have a selection from a combo box autofill/auto checkmark check boxes. Alternatively, I would be willing to just have different selections presented with check boxes that when filled, would auto checkmark other check boxes (I know how to do this one, but I am not sure how to clear the check boxes if the initial one is unchecked).
I have the action button tied to the mouse up function. This just errors out.
var Citrix = this.getField("Citrix")
var Appro = this.getField("Appro")
var SAS = this.getField("SAS")
if (event.target.value=="Yes") {
Citrix.checkThisBox = true
Appro.checkThisBox = true
SAS.checkThisBox = true
else {
Citrix.checkThisBox = false
Appro.checkThisBox = false
SAS.checkThisBox = false
I have this that works, but I don't know how to clear the buttons when "Associate" is unchecked.
if(this.getField("Associate").isBoxChecked(0));
this.getField("Citrix").checkThisBox(0, true);
this.getField("Appro").checkThisBox(0, true);
this.getField("SAS").checkThisBox(0, true);
The other way I was working on it, was to use a combo box to autofill/checkmark check boxes. But this code doesn't work either.
function calculateTextField()
// get the value of the combo box
var comboValue = this.getField("Select").value;
// get the state of the checkbox
var isChecked = (this.getField("Citrix").value == "Yes");
var textFieldValue = "";
console.println(comboValue);
if (isChecked)
if (comboValue == 0)
textFieldValue = "";
if (comboValue == "Associate")
(this.getField("Citrix").value == "Yes");
else if (comboValue == "Specialist")
(this.getField("Citrix").value == "Yes");
else if (comboValue == "Team Leader")
(this.getField("Citrix").value == "No");
else
(this.getField("Citrix").value == "No");
else
textFieldValue = "";
this.getField("Select").value = textFieldValue;
Can anyone please assist me with this?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Gene,
Thank you for the response. Are you saying that my initial formula should look more like this; ?
var Citrix = this.getField("Citrix")
var Appro = this.getField("Appro")
var SAS = this.getField("SAS")
if (event.target.value=="Yes") {
Citrix.checkThisBox = true
Appro.checkThisBox = true
SAS.checkThisBox = true
else {
if (event.target.value=="Off")
Citrix.checkThisBox = true
Appro.checkThisBox = true
SAS.checkThisBox = true
Thanks,
Chris

Problem with combo boxes and the reset button in certain situations

Hi Everyone,
i have a problem to make the reset-button function properly in an what-if analysis dashboard.
The dashboard uses two combo boxes that are not visible at the same time. In my application the second combo box only appears when a dedicated menu (label based menu button) has been activated.
So i have combo box 1 when menu A is active an dand combo box 2 when menu 2 is active.
After starting the dashboard initial values are fine. If you then directly change to menu 2 (seeing combo box 2 with
the correct default value) and press the reset button, the dashboard returns to the initial view, showing
the menu 1 with the correct default value. If you now switch back to menu 2, you will see, that the combo box 2
is empty (i.e. nothing selected).
I also tracked the destination cells for the combo box value results as well as the source cells for the "selected item" and the
destination cells for the "Insert Selected Item". All this values seem to be correct. Therefore i assume that
this is an issue of event handling. Maybe the combo box 2 does not refresh its selected value because it is already
invisible when the values are restored.
This case can easily be simulated by placing two combo boxes and a push button (that changes the visibility of
the combo boxes) and the reset button on the canvas.
Maybe someone can help. I am able to provide a test xlf, if neccessary.
Thanks,
Oliver
P.S. I am using Xcelsius SP4 (Version 5.4.0.0)

Hello Debjit_Singha_86,
thank you for your support. At the moment i have the following setting:
label based menu
- General: Insertion Type "value" from a list of ID's for the menu-items to a dedicated cell (current menu ID, say tab1!$A$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) fixted to item 1
hidden combo box
- General: Insertion Type "position" to a dedicated cell with the current choice (say tab1!$B$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) to the same cell (tab1!$B$1)
Can you give me a hint on how to connect the two components according to your solution, so that the label based menu sets the default for the hidden combox box only in case, that the reset button is pressed?
Thanks,
Oliver

Problem with Combo Box in a Dialog Box

I have a dialog box that includes a combo box.
For some reason the combo box shows up under the first text box. In other words, the combo box is not separate from the first field. It has the following:
ComboBox with Sequence showing, then Enter Identifyer
Textbox URL
Textbox Enter Resource 1
Textbox Enter Resource 2
Textbox Enter Resource 3
Textbox Enter Resource 4
Textbox Enter Resource 5
It's putting the combo box in the first text field...it should be
ComboBox with Sequence showing
URL Textbox
Enter Identifyer Textbox
Enter Resource 1 Textbox
Enter Resource 2 Textbox...

Seems the problem is in your DialogLayout2 class which must be in package dl. I tried a grid layout and got something that looks like what you described. I laid out pp with a gridbag layout.

Filtering my DataGridView with Combo Boxes

Hello everyone! I have recently started working with windows form application and I must say it is really
awsome! I have came up with a project but I came across a little problem and I hope some of you might help me!
I have established a local database and managed to connect it to a DataGridView, awsome I can see my database
in my windows form! I have also made 7 combo boxes, each with its strings in it, then i added a button that should filter the data grid view according to the strings the user selected in the combo boxes. My question is, how do i do that? I mean how do i make
the button fillter my DataGridView according to the strings selected in my combo boxes?
Hope for a quick answer, sorry for my english and lack of knowledge in windows form!

Maybe you could go this way:
Populate the combobox manually, first adding "All", then adding the items from industryGroupsDataSet.Tables[0].
Add a BindingSource between companiesDataSet.Tables[0] and dataGridView1.DataSource.
In the SelectedIndexChanged event of the combobox, alter the Filter property of the BindingSource. If the selected index is zero ("All"), set the Filter to null, otherwise set the filter to String.Format("groupID = '{0}'", cmbBxGroupFilter.SelectedValue).

Glitch with combo boxes

Hi all,
In flash I have about 5 frames, each which have 7 combo boxes
on them. The user selects the answers for each combo box and then
clicks 'check' if they are correct they move on to the next frame.
The only frame that is different is frame 3 which has combo boxes 4
and 5 missing because they do not apply for that particular
question.
Once the user moves on past frame 3, some of the combo boxes
show up blank (they are there but the default Index 0 "select" does
not show up. If you click on the combo box it opens and you can
choose one of the 5 choices in it, but once you select one it won't
show up either.
Does anyone know the cause of this problem or a solution?
P.S. The combo boxes all have the same instance name
throughout the whole file of 'cbo1' through 'cbo7' and are reset to
index 0 at the beginning of each new frame.

You do this by combining JSPs with a central servlet. I don't know how to do it with just one JSP on its own.
The JSP does a <form> POST to the servlet. The servlet fetches the combo box values into a List, puts it into request scope, and forwards the response back to the JSP. The JSP gets the List out of request scope and populates the drop-down. You do the same thing when there's a selection in the drop-down: onChange does a POST back to the servlet, which gets the selected value as a parameter, takes the appropriate action, and forwards the response with new data in request scope back to the JSP.
The trick is to have the data in request scope so the JSP can get it. I think you need a servlet to do that.

I have NO scripting experience but am attempting to create "cascading combo box" with two boxes.

I have copied and edited to the best of my ability several options but keep getting errors, mostly illegal character on line...
I do not have LifeCycle, merely Adobe Acrobat IX (and a trial version of Acrobat XI PRO) and the extent of my knowledge ends at placing fields, text, etc. . .
The scenario is as follows:
On the document, there are two combo boxes
1- "DeptName"
2- "Position"
The goal is to be able to select one of 15 different departments, and based on that selection, choose from between 2 to 15 different positions for that corresponding department.
Below is what I was hopeful would work, but alas - FAIL!!
If anyone could assist it would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
myDeptNameValues =
"ADMINISTRATION – RSADMN (8171)",
"BEVERAGE – RSBEV (8174)",
"CATERING – RCCAT (8959)",
"CLUB – RSCLB (8174)",
"CONCESSIONS – RCCON (8961)",
"CONCESSIONS – RSCON (8173)",
"CULINARY – RSKIT (8177)",
"FACILITIES – RSFAC (6925)",
"RETAIL – RSRET (8175)",
"SUITES – RSSTE (8177)",
"VENDING – RSVND (8173)",
"WAREHOUSE – RSWHS (8173)"
this.getField("DeptName").setItems(myDeptNameValues);
var DeptData =
ADMINISTRATION – RSADMN (8171):["Teller","Security"],
BEVERAGE – RSBEV (8174):["Bartender","Barback"],
CATERING – RCCAT (8959):["Banquet Server",”Banquet Captain"],
CLUB – RSCLB (8174):["Cashier","Counter","Cook","In Seat Server","Runner","Stand Manager"],
CONCESSIONS – RCCON (8961):["Counter","Cashier","Cook","Runner","Beer Attendant/SMC","Stand Lead","Supervisor"],
CONCESSIONS – RSCON (8173):["Counter","Cashier","Cook","Runner","Beer Attendant/SMC","Stand Lead","Supervisor"],
CULINARY – RSKIT (8177):["Cook 1 – Entry Level","Cook 2 – Advanced Level","Cook 3 – Lead Cook","Kitchen Supervisor","Steward"],
FACILITIES – RSFAC (6925):["Lead – Blower/Press","Cleaning Services Worker"],
RETAIL – RSRET (8175):["Warehouse","Supervisor","Warehouse Supervisor","Vendors/Hawkers","Senior Supervisor","Associates"],
SUITES – RSSTE (8177):["Suite Attendant","Ice Cream Cart Attendant","Runner","ReOrder Clerk","Suite Captain","Pantry Supervisor"],
VENDING – RSVND (8173):["Vendor","Vendor Filler","Alcohol Compliance Supervisor","Auditor","Level Supervisor","Senior Supervisor"],
WAREHOUSE – RSWHS (8173):["Runner","Supervisor"]
function SetFieldValues(cDeptName)
this.getField("Position").setItems(DeptData[cDeptName]);
The above code was placed in the document script. Within the format area of the "DeptName" box, I have the following code placed in the keystroke script.
if( event.willCommit )
if(event.value == "")
this.getField("box2").clearItems();
else
SetFieldValues(event.value);
I have spent the past four days, more than 18 hours in the last two alone trying to nail this down and I can't explain how completely defeated I feel, not to mention frustrated.
Again, thanks for your help!!

I suppose I am not meant to figure this out. I am trying my absolute hardest to accomplish compiling this document without having to resort to asking someone to do it for me as I have noticed in a few other threads, but it just seems to get more frustrating. I have accomplished the first thing I set out to do and I completely appreciate your assistance with that. My issue now is that i have other text fields I want to automatically fill based on the selection of the very same DeptName combo box. I can make the cascading/dependent box work with the initial DeptName box, or all the additional text fields with the DeptName box, but cannot seem to accomplish having them work together. I have been working daily, reading blogs/forums, watching videos all in an effort to complete this before it's needed on Feb. 2.
Is it possible to make 7 text fields and a combo box(B) fill based on the selection of a separate combo box (A), and then have 5 more text fields automatically fill based on the selection from the secondary box (B)? I can make it all happen individually, meaning only the text fields for one box or the combo box (A to b) but not in conjunction.

Having trouble with combo box.

What im trying to do is put a string array into this combo box called jComboBoxParts how do i make it show? Right now when i load it, all i see is "Item1..."Item2...etc". Here is my code.
String[] partsString = { "oil can", "windshield", "tires", "v6 Cylinder head", "fuse"};
JComboBox[] jComboBoxParts = new JComboBox[partsString.length];
for(int i=0; i < partsString.length; i++)
jComboBoxParts[i] = new *JComboBox(*partsString);
with the bolded work i get an error. Please help.

That's ugly in so many ways...
This:
JComboBox[] jComboBoxParts = new JComboBox[partsString.length];does not do what you think it does. Instead, it creates an array of JComboBoxes initialized to the length of elements in your string array. So instead of a single JComboBox capable of holding 5 elements (which is what you were trying to do), you created 5 JComboBoxes capable of holding n elements.
What you want to do is something like this:
import javax.swing.*;
class Demo extends JFrame {
private JComboBox box;
public Demo() {
    initComponents();
private void initComponents() {
    String[] items = { "oil can", "windshield", "tires", "v6 cylinder head", "fuse" };
    box = new JComboBox(items);
    this.getContentPane().add(box);
    this.pack();
    this.setSize(200, 60);
    this.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    this.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    this.setTitle("Combox Box Demo");
public static void main(String[] argv) {
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
        new Demo().setVisible(true);
}Another alternative, if you don't have the array of strings available when you instantiate your JComboBox, you could do something like this:
String items = { "oil can", "brakes", "windshield", "tail light", "something else", "blah", "more blah" };
for( String item : items )
myJComboBox.addItem(item);

Error with Combo Box, Executing CBTA Script

Dear Experts.
I am Using CBTA in solman 7.1 SP 12 to automate the testing with SAP ERP (SAP GUI) and CRM(CRM UI). We are creating the test script without problem, but at time to execute, it suddenly stop.
We were checking and found that always is failing with a Combo Box field.
do you know if exist any note to correct this behavior?
In CRM UI, the script recording create the following component to fill the combo box
But in the execution CBTA does not fill the field, just try focus in the field, show the values but does not select any.
At the end show the following error
IN SAP ERP
In ERP, the script recording create the following component to fill the combo box
But in the execution CBTA does not fill the field, just try focusing in the field show the values but does not select any.
Then the script execution fail and show a error, saying the field is read only.
Br.
Juan

Hi every One.
Finally i got the solution, the error was that i had set up in SAP GUI the option to view the key in the drop down list and the same happened in CRM UI i had set up the same option.
After shot down this option we record the escenario again, then we execute it and run without problem.
Best regards
Juan

Trouble with combo box

I am using a combo box with the code below, but each time I
arrive on this
screen that displays cbTREATMENT, the combo box first draws
itself with the
default style, then applies my style, which looks a bit ugly
onscreen.
Anything I can do to rectify this?
Thanks.
cbTREATMENT.setStyle( "fontSize", "13" );
cbTREATMENT.setStyle( "color", "0x000000" );
cbTREATMENT.setStyle( "fontWeight", "bold" );
cbTREATMENT.setStyle( "fontFamily", "arial" );
cbTREATMENT.dropdown.rowHeight = 18;
cbTREATMENT.dataProvider=["","name1","name2","name3];
cbTREATMENT.text=vTREATMENT;

Thanks for the reply, but I'm not sure what you mean, can you
explain any
further?
