Cannot select column or rows in a table

I've created two column document - but for some reason cannot select the columns so that I can format them. The selection menu items are grayed out. And when hovering with curser the curser does not convert to arrow to enable 'select'. I just want to add lines around the table columns but can't. Anyone know solution? Must be something simple I did when setting up the two column document . . . .

Rich,
Select one cell, then Right-Click or Control-Click, for the contextual menu:
or Choose Menu > Format > Table > Select Row / Column.

Jerry

Selection of a row in a table

Hi,
I have a problem with JTable. ...i have just started working with JTables and still have not got a complete hang of how they function.
I have a table whose model is "AbstractTableModel". I have different data in each row of the table therefore i have a celledtior and cell renderer per row. Each row is rendered as a combo box. There is only one column in that table. What i need to do is when the user clicks on any of these the rows in the table i need to evaluate what is the content in that row(in the combo box-It should be the values that have not been used up yet in the other rows...so basically as you add rows the combo box content will keep shrinking till all the possible vlaues are exhausted).
I added a celleditor listener for every row. When the user clicks on the cell the event get's captured but the row value that shows up is not row the user selected. The value is always the previous selected row. Each cell is rendered as a combo box.
For example if the user selected the first row in the table then the value of the row selected is -1. If the the user adds two more rows and selects the third row then the value selected is 0 (previos selected).
What i cannot figure out is how in the world is this value obtained.
Please help !! I tried everything i can think of to get the correct value of the row selected.
Thanks a lot for your time and patience.

How to get the current selected column and row

Hi,
A difficult one, how do i know which column (and row would also be nice) of a JTable is selected?
e.g.
I have a JButton which is called "Edit" when i select a cell in the JTable and click the button "Edit" a new window must be visible as a form where the user can edit the a part of a row.
Then the column which was selected in the JTable must be given (so i need to know current column) and then i want the TextField (the one needed to be edited) be active with requestFocus(). So it would be
pricetextfield.requestFocus();
Problem now is that i have to click every time in the window the JTextField which was selected in the JTable. I have chosen for this way of editing because my application is multi-user and it would be too difficult for me when everybody did editing directly (catch signals, reload data, etc.).
My question is how do I know the current column and the current row in a JTable?

I'm not sure what your mean by the "current" row or column, but the following utility methods return
which row and column have focus within the JTable.
public static int getFocusRow(JTable table) {
return table.getSelectionModel().getLeadSelectionIndex();
public static int getFocusColumn(JTable table) {
return table.getColumnModel().getSelectionModel().getLeadSelectionIndex();
}

How to implement 'Quick Select' column in a query result table?

Hi,
I have a requirement in OAF to design a search page with 'Quick select' column.
One of the column in the query result table should be a quick select.
Once user clicks on the quick select column, we have to navigate back to the previous page with the row value selected.
Can anyone help me in this.
Thanks.

Also refer the search exercise in the toolbox tutorials.
you can implement the quick search in the same way as update and delete buttons.

How to select x numbered row from two tables

Hi,
I have one performance problem...
Here is sample scenario...
TableA
A1 A2 A3
a1     a12     a13
a2     a22     a23
a3     a32     a33
TableB
B1     B2     B3
b1     b12     b13
b2     b22     b23
I want result like
A1     B1     A2     B2
a1     b1     a12     b12
a2     b2     a22     b22
I have written it like
select
A1,
B1,
A2,
B2
from
(select A1, A2, rownum rnA from TableA) a,
(select B1, B2, rownum rnB from TableB) b
where rnA = rnB
but suppose TableA has 2500000 rows and
TableB has 500 rows then for 500 rows I have to
wait for all 2500000 rows scanning.
Is there any smart solution..?
I have created indexes for on columns A1, (A1,A2,A3), B1, (B1,B2,B3).
Curious:)

Adding 2 more rows to a select without inserting rows to base table

hello all,
i have a below simple select statement which is querying a table.
select * from STUDY_SCHED_INTERVAL_TEMP
where STUDY_KEY = 1063;
but here is the situations. As you can see its returning 7 rows. But i need to add
2 more rows..with everything else default value or what exist... except adding 2 more rows.
i cannot insert into base table. I want my end results to increment by 2 days in
measurement_date_Taken to 01-apr-09....so basically measurement_date_taken should
end at study_end_Date...
IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT INSERTING ROWS INTO THE TABLE AND JUST PLAYIHY AROUND WITH
THE SELECT STATEMENT??
sorry if this is confusing...i am on 10.2.0.3

Well, I'm not sure if this query looks as good as my lawn, but seems to work anyway ;)
I've used the 'simplified version', but the principle should work for your table to, S2K.
As Frank already pointed out (and I stumbled upon it while clunging): you just select your already existing rows and union them with the 'missing records', you calculate the number of days you're 'missing' based on the study_end_date:
MHO%xe> alter session set nls_date_language='AMERICAN';
Sessie is gewijzigd.

Interactive Report - Include Non-selected Column in Row Text Search

Hi,
We have an interactive report that contains many columns. NAME VARCHAR2(30), TYPE VARCHAR2(30) etc and DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(4000).
Normally the DECRIPTION column would not be shown (avalilable for dispaly via 'Select Columns' but not selected), however we need the default Row Text Search (ie direct entry into the search field instead of creating a column filter) to search the DESCRIPTION field wether it is selected for display or not.
This will allow the user to enter a term that may be contained in the DESCRIPTION to find records without trying to display a 4000 character field in the report - which just looks horrible.
We are using ApEx 4.1.1.
Thanks,
Martin Figg

Hi Ray,
As I expected this has got us very close. We went with the code:
select
facility_id,
facility_name,
'<span title="' || facility_desc|| '">'||substr(facility_desc,0,50)||decode(sign(length( facility_desc)-50),1,' (More...)',NULL)||'</span>' facility_desc,
equipment_id,
equipment_name,
'<span title="' || equipment_desc|| '">'||substr(equipment_desc,0,50)||decode(sign(length( equipment_desc)-50),1,' (More...)',NULL)||'</span>' equipment_desc,
from
rf_full_item_list_vwhich works well. The only issue is that when you download to csv you get the html tags etc as well. Put I am a lot closer to a solution than we were.
Thanks again.
Martin

Default selection of a row in the table

Dear all,
I have given output of one table as the input to an RFC and the output of this RFC is given to a table and the same scenario we followed for the graphs also. By default first row of the table is getting selected because of that the second table or graph is getting displayed without any user interaction. Please tell us how can we avoid the above. I tried by using guard condition of select but i am unable to control it. Please tell us detailed procedure by which directly i can follow the same.

Suman.

Reg Selection of Multiple Rows in a Table

Hi all,
I have to select multiple rows from a table and have to display those selected records in another table in the next screen.
The problem is, when I am selecting the records in a table, selection should not be allowed on some records based on a condition. Is it possible with the default selection mode of webdynpro. If so, Please tell me how can we disable the selection of certain records in a table(using the default selection mode provided by webdynpro)
Else, if we have to use check boxes for selection(in case of my problem), please do help me out in how to disable the selection of certain records in a table(using check boxes for selection).
Please help me out. Its urgent...
Reward points guranteed.
Regards,
Murthy.

HI Narayana,
Multiple selection property is specific to a table, not for a tableElment(ie. for a row), so u cant set some of the rows as multi selected and some as node
U can use Checkbox for this purpose. Based on the condition u can make the check box as enabled and disabled
To achieve this, Create 2 boolean variables inside table node, one for checkbox value(Let it be <b>CBValue</b> .Bind this to checked property of Checkbox) and other for enabling and disabling Checkbox(Let it be <b>CBReadOnly</b>. Bind this to readonly property of CheckBox).
At the time of creation of table elements, as per the condition, u can control the selection as
IPrivate<View>.I<Table>Node tNode=wdContext.node<Table>();
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
IPrivate<View>.I<Table>Element tEl=tNode.create<Table>Element();
tNode.addElement(tEl);
tEl.setCBValue(false);//Unchecking Checkboxes initially
if(condition=non selectable)
tEl.setCBReadOnly(true);
else
tEl.setCBReadOnly(false)

Add column with row number to table

Hi,
to a table view I'd like to add a new column that contains the row number for each row.
I have many data sources (twelve) and with the union operator I create one output dataset. The output data is sorted by the arrangement of the input ports of the union operator.
Is there a way to add a column with its corresponding entry number?
Regards, FT

I have a similar question to the original post. It seems your answer will fill the new field in all rows with the same value. But, what if we want an actual row number?
I am simply looking to add a row number to a table. I only have one data source. The business scenario is that the output of the data service is sorted in descending order on value. I want to be able to select the first 10 (i.e. the top 10 items based on that value).
Even if I can solve my business scenario without using a row number field after the sort, it seems like a technique that would come in handy.
Any ideas? I'm pretty new to using Visual Composer so I may be missing something obvious.

Transform columns in row for a table in Oracle 10g

Hi,
I am using Oracle 10g.
There is a table (example) EMPLOYEE, with following structure
IDUSER YEAR1 YEAR2 YEAR3

99999 value7 value6 value5
and I need display :
IDUSER YEAR
12345 value1

12345 value3
99999 value7
99999 value6
99999 value5
How can I do this with without unpivot?
Thanks

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
One way to unpivot in any version of Orace is to cross-join your table with another table (or resut set, in ths case) that has as many rows as you need toroduce from each row of your original table.
Here's an example:
WITH     cntr     AS
     SELECT     LEVEL     AS n
     FROM     dual
     CONNECT BY     LEVEL <= 3
SELECT     e.iduser
,     CASE c.n
         WHEN 1 THEN year1
         WHEN 2 THEN year2
         WHEN 3 THEN year3
     END     AS uear
FROM         cntr      c
CROSS JOIN employee e
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say what version of Oracle you're using (e.g. 11.2.0.2.0).
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}

SELECTing from multiple rows and different tables

Basically, I have a table with a primary key and some other columns of data. The second table has a foreign key that points to the first table then has a columns with related data. I want to write construct a SQL query where one of the columns is the primary key from the first table and the second column is a concatenation of all the rows in the second table that have the same foreign key.
I need this in the form of one SQL statement so that I can use it to create a report in Application Express

Just in case my first post was a bit unclear.
My first table has a primary key, INTERACTION_ID, and several other columns of data.
My second table has a foreign key, INTERACTION_ID, and one extra column, USER_NAME.
There are several rows in the second table that share the same INTERACTION_ID as each interaction can have many user names. I want to construct a SQL query where I pull the interaction id in one column and concatenate all the relevant rows of USER_NAME as the second column.
