Can report or form column be reoder at running time

Hello there,
We have a customer who is happy with the reports and form design. he wanted to reoder the column to his look and feel. I found out that once the report or form is put in production, I can not reoder the column. Can someone tell me different? can we reoder the column once the reports or forms are put in production?
I need your insight please.

Calling a subvi dynamically and passing references to it is a tall order for a rookie. Examples may be around but they are scattered. I already had an example written, I just had to find it.
I learn best by example so I teach by example. I can't see making the OP spend hours searching for something I have immediately. His time is better spent studying my code than searching for pieces and then trying to put them together, and having to come here to ask more questions.

Change column width in the run time

Hi, everyone:
I have a form with a master and a detail block. The detail block has a tabular layout. I want the user of the form being able to ajust the width of the particular column(s) in the run time by, e.g. dragging the border of the column(s) to the left or to the right. I've seen the examples of these forms, but want to know how easy would it be to implement that.
Thanks a lot.
Eugene.

How can i add rows to a JTable at run time ??????

hi there
how can i add a row to a JTable at run time? and display the table after the change? thank you.

For adding or removing the rows from the JTable, you have to use the methods on the table model. I would show you a simple implementation of table model.
public class MyTableModel extends AbstractTableModel {
private ArrayList rowsList = null;
private String [] columns = { "Column 1" , "Column 2", "Column 3"};
public MyTableModel() {
rowsList = new ArrayList();
public int getRowCount() {
return rowsList.size();
public int getColumnCount() {
return columns.length;
public void addRow(MyRow myRow) {
//MyRow is any of your object.
rowsList.add(myRow);
fireTableDataChanged();
public void removeRow(int rowIndex) {
rowsList.remove(rowIndex);
fireTableRowsDeleted(rowIndex, rowIndex);
public Object getValueAt(int row, in col) {
MyRow currentRow = (MyRow)rowsList.get(row);
switch (col) {
case 0:
//return the value of first cell
break;
case 1 :
//return the value of second cell
break;
case 2 :
//return the value of third cell
break;
}Then create the table using the TableModel using the constructor new JTable(TableModel) and then when you want to add/remove a row from the table, call myTableModel.addRow(MyRow) or myTableModel.removeRow(rowIndex)....I hope that this solves your problem.

Datatypes and names of columns of recordgroup during run-time

Hi everyone,
Can you please tell me that Is it possible to get the datatype and name of columns of a recordgroup during run-time or not. So that I don't waste my time in searching for this solution. If you are not getting my question then please let me know but I need this help very badly.
Thanks

After the call of the methods GET_COLUMN_WIDTH or GET_ROW_HEIGHT
You need to add this command :
CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.
This will send back from the SAPGUI to your ABAP program the new values.
Found in this Thread : Method GET_ROW_HEIGHT

Can PJC ORACLE9IAS FORMS Services - FILEUPLOAD Java Bean run on UNIX?

I got the File Upload Utility sample code from //otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/forms/content.html
The File Upload demo consists of the following files:-
1. fileuploader90.fmb
2. fileupload90.pll
3. FileUploader.java, FileUploaderProgrressBar.java ==> By using Oracle 9i JDeveloper(version 9.0.2.822 and java version 1.3.1), I had compiled and deployed and jarred java classes for the client side bean. Finally, I get uploadclient.jar.
4. FormsDecoder.java, FormsDecoderException.java ==> By using Oracle 9i JDeveloper(version 9.0.2.822 and java version 1.3.1), I had compiled and deployed and jarred java classes for the server side bean. Finally, I get uploadserver.jar.
And I had done accordingly to the steps.
I had added an entry in the formsweb.cfg file to call the FileUpload demo as following:-
[FileUpload]
pageTitle=Oracle9iAS Forms Services - FileUpload Demo
archive_jini=f90all.jar,uploadclient.jar

And this environment file, fileupload.env, code is as following:-
#fileupload.env
#Environment file used to setup the FileUpload Demo
ORACLE_HOME=/export/home2/9ids/OraHome1

Then by using Oracle Forms 9.0(version 9.0.2.7.0) attach the FileUpload.pll library and compiled and run the forms.Click on the select button.and NO REPLY.NO ERROR NUMBER.No Progress Bar. Nothing...
Then I exit the form and add the config=FileUpload& into the web browser. Then I get the forms. Click on the select button and also NO RESPOND,NO ERROR,No Progress Bar. The File Upload Utility is not working.
Can anyone help me on this issue? Urgent...
Thank you so much.

Crystal Reports ClickOnce install fails after upgrade to run time 13.0.2

I realize this is very similar to two other posts but the ClickOnce failure was not addresses in the two threads I found.
Visual Studio 2010 V 10.0.40219.1 SP1Rel
.NET Framework V 4.0.30319 SP1Rel
Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0 BuildVersion=13.0.2.469.Cortez_CR4VS (from ProductId.txt in the download folder)
Application was original developed using CR BuildVersion=13.0.1.220.Cortez_CR4VS
So since I upgraded this week, if a user clicks the Launch link on the deployment web page the application loads the appl;ication update and starts. Does not even check with Crystal Reports but everything seems to work.
The new version of the Crystal Reports runtime tries to install for users I have that enjoy clicking the run button. The install fails and points at a log file, the key part of which is
Installing using command 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe' and parameters ' -I "C:\DOCUME1\clyle\LOCALS1\Temp\VSDC8.tmp\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_2.msi" -q '
Process exited with code 1603
Status of package 'SAP Crystal Reports Runtime Engine for .NET Framework 4.0' after install is 'InstallFailed'
Uninstalling the previous version manually alleviates the failure as does manually running the msi on the target machine. But that kind of defeats the purpose of ClickOnce. Looking at product.xml that accompanies the runtime download I see it tests for the 13.0.2 version and bypasses the install if it finds it but it does not check for earlier versions.
Another thread I read indicated changing the switches in the install command would work but I am not clear on how to do that from ClickOnce, I cannot locate where the command is being given. Is there a way to get it to test for previous versions and delete them or force an overwrite using the ClickOnce?

Ludek,
Did this issue above every get resolved?
Here is what I have:
ClickOnce, Windows form app that uses Crystal. I upgraded to VS 2012 and Crystal right along
with it.
I only want the 32bit version to install, even on 64bit
machines. I have modified the
product.xml file to allow for this. Also
have some machines with version 13.0.0 and 13.0.1 of the Crystal ClickOnce msi
file. Would like to get everyone up to
13.0.6.
I am doing ALL this testing on clean VMWare installs.
Windows 7 x64 and Windows XP x86.
I force the 32bit install in the product file. (This I believe
is working correctly) And I do a version check, this is where the problem comes
in… Below, from the product file:
<InstallChecks>
 <RegistryCheck
Property="CRRuntime32Version" Key="HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP
BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Crystal Reports"
Value="CRRuntime32Version" />
</InstallChecks>
Note to path in the registry. This path which is installed
by CR is different for Win7 vs WinXP, not sure why? In Win7 the path is:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\SAP
BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Crystal Reports
Also if you have version 13.0.0 installed there is no entry
in the registry for the version number at all!
The log file also show that it can’t find the version if 13.0.0 is
installed.
Admittedly the error log shows that it is somehow finding
the version if it is 13.0.1 (nothing for 13.0.0)? But even though I have it set
to skip the 13.0.6 install if the version check is 13.0.1 or higher Crystal
attempts to install anyway, and it fails in the process, halting the entire
ClickOnce install.
In summary. I need to
be able to check the version currently installed and update it to 13.0.6. This fails and seems to be a bug? Hopefully there is a work around.
Thanks,
Jim

I upgrading the same form to 10g, as i'm running the form, all images appear blur !!!
Can anyone explain why?
Is there any solution for this weird phenomenon ?
Thanks

That's very curious as the appeared to take a long time to download each. They also reported being fully downoladed in the download window in iTunes. It's certainly never happened before that they would synchronise without being fully downloaded.

How can I debug the Call Library Function at run-time

I've written a VI using the CLF to call a DLL which was compiled off-site by another engineer using MSVC. Even though the VI runs without flagging any errors, the VI is not doing what I expect. Is there any way of finding out if the DLL is been called correctly? The first function that is called doesn't return any value, but I think that it should. Does this mean that the DLL is not being called correctly? Note also that the DLL works fine with a JAVA GUI.

Make sure that you are specifying the proper function prototype in the call library function. If you are slightly off the call will not work properly. Ask the offsite engineer to provide you with this data. Another tip is to build the dll with the option to show front panel when called. You can actually popup the dll like you would a subvi. If you design it with test indicators showing on the front panel that is a great way to determine if it is working. Hope this helps.

Set all checkboxes of the selected column by user at run time

Hi ,
I have a table control tab_500 with the 3 columns of checkboxes. When user selects particular column, and click on the buttone 'Select All', all the checkboxes of that column should get selected.
loop at tab_500-cols into cols_500.
if cols_500-SELECTED = 'X'.
endif.
endloop.
How to do this.
Thanks in advance,

Can I substitute one class for another at run time

In one compilation unit, there are 2 classes. One is public.(class Test is public and class Process is without any modifier. Test is inherited from Process). There is a private method in Process. When i try to compile while accessing the private method of Process in Test, I get a compiler error, rightfully so. But I successfully got a Process.class.
So, now i remove the private access modifier from my method in Process class and compile the whole thing and am able to run (java Test). But, if i replace the latest Process.class with the original Process class with the private method, I am still able to run(java Test)!!
This all happed in Windows NT but not in Solaris.
Is this correct ? Is this not a security violation?

It's a bug: http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4293149.html

Link from QBE-report to form not working when published as portlets

I've created a simple QBE-report where I've linked (using a LINK) keyvalues to a detail FORM. Query and linking and automatically display of selected record works fine in the App.builder, - but when I publish the elements as portlets and access the QBE-report as a portlet on a page, - the link fails, no keyvalues are passed to the detail form. It only shows up blank.
What am I missing here?
Thankful for any hint.
Regards,

This is strange, - made the same report again, this time as a sql-query (not QBE) - and linked the report and form together exactly as before - this time the link works when using the report as a portlet.
The QBE-report generates empty parameterstrings (i.e. foo=&bar=&) when run as portlet on a page. Is this a bug?

Adding complex computed column at run-time fails in PB 12.6

I support a large 'vintage' application that was originally written in the late 90's, and has been migrated from version to version over the years. Currently I'm working to get it working in PB 12.6 Classic, build 3506, migrating it from PB 11.5
The first issue I've come across is that PFC treeviews are not working properly. After some debugging, I determined that the cause of the failure is the PFC code's creation of 'key' column in the datawindows being used to populate each level.
In the pfc_u_tv.of_createkey function, it looks at the linkages between the levels of a treeviews data, and then crafts an expression, and then uses that to create a computed column, which is subsequently used to uniquely identify the data.
The expression is a series of string concatenations, such as this:
expression='String(ctg_cd) + "#$%" + String(app_cd) + "#$%" + String(app_cd) + "#$%" + String(win_id) + "#$%" + String(ctg_cd) + "#$%"'
This expression is then used in a modify statement to create the new compute key column:
ls_rc = ads_obj.Modify("create compute(band=detail x='0' y='0' " + &
"height='0' width='0' name=pfc_tvi_key " + ls_Exp + ")")
In earlier versions, this works, and when you do a getitemstring afterward you get a long concatenated value that PFC uses to uniquely identify treeview items.
Such as 'a/r#$%plcy#$%plcy#$%w_m_plcy_fncl_tran#$%a/r#$%'
However, in PB 12.6, only the first portion of the expression is processed. There is no error returned from the Modify function, and the column is created, but the expression is only evaluating one part of the expression. In this partiular case, it results in
'plcy'
I just noticed that this isn't the *first* item in the set of concatenated columns and string literals, which is interesting. In any case, when the computed key values are not correct, the whole method PFC is using to populate and run the treeview falls apart, and you get all children under each parent, and selections on the treeview object do not work properly because the key column values are not unique.
I can copy the expression value from a debugging session, and use that to create a computed column at design time, pasting the expression in, and naming it the same as the created column (pfv_tvi_key), and this then allows the treeview to work properly. However, this is a very cumbersome and problematic workaround. The application has a lot of treeviews, with a very large number of datawindows operating as all the different types of items on different levels of different trees. I don't think it's a practical workaround, and future maintenance would be very difficult.
bu the workaround still demonstrates it is not an issue with the syntax of the compute expression, just an issue with the way it is handled by PowerBuilder when a column is created at run time,vs. at design time.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I would think there are a fair number of older apps still around that are using PFC treeviews.
My next step will be to install PB 12.6 build 4011 and cross my fingers. Other than that, perhaps try 12.5?

Updating the PFC layers has started to lead down a rabbit hole of hundreds and hundreds of errors.
Granted, many of these are probably rooted in a few ancestor issues.
But I'm not sure this will lead to a solution.
The problem lies in using a modify statement to create a computed column at run time containing an expression with multiple concatenated values.
If I look at the pfc_u_tv.of_createkey function from the newer PFC version, I see the same code there:
ls_rc = ads_obj.Modify("create compute(band=detail x='0' y='0' " + &
"height='0' width='0' name=pfc_tvi_key " + ls_Exp + ")")
And the same code above it which creates the expression used in the modify.
So after doing all the patching for the new PFC version, I somehow suspect I'll still be facing the same datastore.modify problem.
Not to say that isn't a good thing to do, just not sure it addresses the root of the problem.

PDF form with XML data connection comes up blank at run time

Hello All,
I am a newbie to ADOBE Livecycle 9, but am very proficient in C#. I would like to request for your guidance on the following issue.
We have a desktop application in C#, WPF, Sqlserver. The requirement is to launch a Livecycle form from the application for the user to read/edit/save data
I have done this much so far -
Downloaded trial version of Livecycle 9
Developed a interactive PDf form
Created an XML based data connection. Generated fields on the form using the fields from this connection.
Set the .XML file as preview source for the form
the controls on the form are boumd to the xml data source
In design mode, the form works fine, it displays my data correctly
I have created a WPF form with a button. On click of this button, I call the Process.Start(pdf-file-path). My pdf is launched properly
I have added a combo box to my WPF form. I select a parameter from this, then call a stored procedure which returns me a datatable depending on parameter passed
Using the returned datatable, I have used the datatable.writexml and datatable.writexmlschema to create my XML and XSD files. as mentioned above, this xsd is used to create the data connection for the PDF and the XML for the preview source
This is what I want to do -
Launch the PDF from my WPF form, pre-populated with the newly created XML data from my WPF form.
So basically, as the user changes the selection criteria from the combo box, the XML file data will change and the PDF file will be launched each time with new data.
The XSD format will always be constant
Problem -
My XML and XSD get created properly, my PDF launches, but it is empty
If I change my selection criteria and run the WPF application, and then open the PDF in design mode, it asks me whether it should refresh the XML source. This means that the PDF form is connecting correctly to the XML source
So why then, does the form come up empty at run time?
What link am I missing?
I have found some sites that help using Web applications, but nothing for desktop applications. It would be fantastic if you could point me to some help for developing Livecycle forms with C# / SQLServer
Your help in this case will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

Oops, something happended with the above post. I will try again... I have tried your suggestion but I still get the same garbled XML (with data repeated and some values "cut in half". Here is what I get after decode-service and extract-to-XML-service. This is just the first barcode, the others are similar, sorry for the poor formatting, but I get a CDATA tage infront of the "istensen" value.

I have tried using a custom .NET component (ClearImage) for reading the same form (with the barcode) I get the correct data out from the barcodes. So I guess something is wrong with the decode-service in Barcoded Forms ES when I use compressed XML. But I can conclude since the ClearImage component can read the barcodes that they are compressed correctly. Can you help me with getting further with this problem? Sincerely Kim
