Change the name of a field in the forms

Hello, experts:
As I can change the name of a field in the forms?
When you change the name of a field on the form, the field name in the database also changes?
Joan

Hello Joan:
If you mean the label of the form you can do with CTR + Double Click.
Remember not to change the integrity of the database. Is only allowed to user fields
make changes at the level of views, stored procedures, among others, which do not compromise the integrity of
data.
Remember, even if they change the label, has changed the field name in the database, only the presentation
the form.

  • How to control the name of custom field in data base table, added by AET

    Hi,
    I have added the one custom field by Application Enhancement Tool (AET).
    The name of custom field has been added in the data base table as ZZFLD000004 by AET.
    I need to add the some meaningful name like that ZMYPROB.
    How can I control the name of custom field in the database field through AET?
    Thanks,
    Amit

    Got the answer.
    Need to click on the Enable Expert mode, then custom field name will be editable.

  • Dinamically change the name of a field.

    Dear all,
    Here is my problem.
    I have a 3 text fields wraped in a subform.
    I have also created a button so I can add new instance of this sub form at runtime.
    All that works nice.
    However, I also have a HTML subbmit button, and when I submit the form to my script, I only get the last instance of the fields in the subform mentioned above.
    I am not sure what is the best solution for that.
    I thought that on option is if while adding the new instances of the subform, I can also dinamically change the name of the fields, so for example
    in the first instance of the subform I will have fieldname2 then in the second I will have fieldname2 and then when I submit I will get both, not just the last one.
    But apperantly I do not know how to dinamically change the name of the field as well.
    Any help will be really realy helpful
    Thank you very much

    Hi Dhiyan,
    Thanks for raplying.
    Your suggestion does work in the way that id does change the caption of the fields dinamically.
    However, looks like when I use the HTML submit button the form still submits the data only in the last fields of the repeated subform and their names have not changed.
    Probably when you say that the name of the field is its caption you mean just a static text. But I am refearing to fields where you can enter data inside.
    Basically, what I am trying to do, is to be able to dinamically create a table in my acrobat form.
    This table has let say 2 fields: InstanceNumber and YearOccured.
    So when I lets say add 3 instances in my acrobat form, I want to user to click an HTML submit button, and then through a PHP script I can submit all the 3 instance to a database.
    However, when I check the REQUEST array, I only see these 2 fields once (instead of 3 times) and they contain the data of the last added row.
    I assume that the problem could be solved if I can somehow change their names while I add rows.
    So for example in the first row I will have:
    InstanceNumber_1 and YearOccured_1
    in the second:
    InstanceNumber_2 and YearOccured_2
    and in third
    InstanceNumber_3 and YearOccured_3
    And so when I submit the form it will submit the data of all the rows.
    I am not sure if that is possible though. But definatelly I do not know how to do it ))
    What I did to go around this is:
    I have created 2 other (hidden) fields.
    And when I click the submit button, before I do the actuall submit, I take the data from all 3 rows one by one and I put i in this hidded fields as (tab) delimited. And so now I have in my REQUEST array all the data from all 3 rows, in a single tab delimited field. And then I can work it out from there with PHP to submit it where ever.
    However, I was hoping for some little more elegant solution, that is if I can change the names and so have all the fields data submitted. Or any other good suggestion
    If anyone knows, will buy you a beer )
    Thanks again

  • Names in Members field under the UNIX Attributes Tab have changed from standard format (i.e. John Doe) to the actual account name (jdoe)

    Hello,
    Names in Members field under the UNIX Attributes Tab have changed from standard format (i.e. John Doe) to the actual account name (jdoe). The only time this happens is if a domain account is deleted and the remnant of the account remains and has to be removed
    manually. However all of the accounts, with the exception of any new ones recently added, now show the account name only. Any ideas on what caused this and how to fix it?
    Thanks :)

    Hi,
    I have not heard from you for some days, currently I am providing the related article for you. Hope this will help you on this matter.

  • Changing the name of standard Field

    we have ECC6.0 with three countries using. Now i want to change the Standard Field name on an infotype ,i know how to change the name of the field. but my question is if i change the name of standard field it gets reflected for all the 3 countries, but i wanted to change for only one country?
    how can i achieve this?

    infotypes are Country Specific so pls check V_T582L once
    and check the screen numbers of the infotypes for various infotypes useing PE03 P0002 feature
    and check those module in V_T588M  and after this
    go to Tcode CMOD and do the rest of the thing u want to do
    hmm...... All the best

  • How to get the name of a field without specifying it as a string (somehow v

    Is it possible to get the name of a field (or method) somehow via the class in which it is declared?
    The reason why I ask is, that quite often the name of a field is important, because the name is the anchor for further processing, like for example when using reflection (e.g. Class.getfield(“NameOfTheField”)).
    Assume you have class FooSimple with the field “String firstName”.
    Now you would do something like this:
    Class<FooSimple> cls = FooSimple.class;
    Field f = cls.getField("firstName");
    The problem is, that the string “firstName” is kind of “hard coded”. When the name of the field in class FooSimple changes (e.g. to “theFirstName”), the invocation will not work anymore when you forget to change the string too.
    I think it would be very helpful to have access to the name of the field directly via the class by doing something like this.
    Class<FooSimple> cls = FooSimple.class;
    Field f = cls.getField(FooSimple.firstName.fieldName);
    The Java Compiler would then resolve “FooSimple.firstName.fieldName” to the string “firstName”. When later the name of the field is changed, the IDE would change the name everywhere where it is used. So if the name of the field would be changed to “theFirstName” the IDE would also change the statement to
    Class<FooSimple> cls = FooSimple.class;
    Field f = cls.getField(FooSimple.theFirstName.fieldName);
    A technique like this would be in my opinion much more safety and more generic.
    Any ideas?
    Best Regards.

    Well, I think the discussion is going in a wrong direction because the original issue was not to discuss if it is worth coding some helper classes or a framework or that like. Let me bring it back to my original point.
    Basically you can reduce my original question to this:
    Currently it is possible to use the reflection API on a class level without specifying the name of the class with a string constant.
    My issue is, that I think it would be a nice extension for Java, if the same would be possible for field variables of a Java class. Currently the only way you can do this is by specifying the field variable with a string constant.
    Let me bring some motivations which brought me to this issue.
    Assume you have an entity bean which represents a DB table and you use Java Persistence (either JPA or something like Hibernate). Then you would have a class looking like this (very simple sample to make this reply shorter).
    @Entity
    @Table(name = "PERSON")
    public class Person implements Serializable {
         @Column(name = "NAME")
         private String name;
    // … constructor, getter, setter, etc. not listed here
    }The whole issue of the design of JPA is, that such entity beans represent the mapping between the object model and the DB model, the mapping is expressed with annotations.
    Okay, now let’s assume you write a query in Query Language, e.g.
    String sql = “select p from Person p where name = :name”;“name” is the name of the field variable, “:name” is the parameter you later set with “Query.setParameter” method.
    What is not so nice is the fact, that you use the name of the class and the name of the field variables “hardcoded” to construct the query. Now you could think that basically this information is part of your entity class. First you start with the name of the class (i.e. the table name) to decouple this “hardcoding”.
    You could write instead:
    String sql = “select p from “ + Person.class.getSimpleName() + “ p where name = :name”;This is really nice, because whenever you change the name of your Person class, this change happens automatically for the sql statement as well.
    I think the next thoughts are obvious, now, since you have decoupled the “hardcoded” part of the name of the class, you would like to do the same for the names of the field variables. But now you are stuck, there is no way to do this using a similar technique like for the name of the class. Either you stay with the query as it is now, or, to make it a little bit better, you code string constants for the field variables and use them. This issue brought me to the point that I think it would be nice to have the possibility to get the name of a field variable in a similar way as you can get it for the name of the class.
    Conceptually it is just to go one level deeper, i.e.
    first level is to get the name of a class
    second level is to get the name of the field variable of a class.
    Another sample would be, if you want to code something by using reflection. You have perfectly access to the reflection API starting at the class level like Person.class.allTheNiceReflectionMethods. There is no need to specify the class first with a string constant first, you directly start with the class, you can even be generic and just work on the Class.class level and still have access to all these nice methods to get out the information you need.
    But if you need to start with a very specific field variable (like in the sample above), you must go by using a string constant like Person.class.getDeclaredField(“name”).
    So basically I think that there exist already millions of lines of Java code where a field variable is specified for further processing, especially in combination with the reflection functionality and everywhere the field variables are specified by these string constants in double quotes. I would assume, that everyone has the same problem, once changing the name of the field variable means to take care that also the content of the string which specifies the name of the field variable is changed.
    I am wondering why one of the replies commented, why the name of a field variable is changed, it sounds to me that this is something which basically never happens. I don’t know, I think that this happens actually quite often and thanks to all these nice IDEs and their “rename” feature this is usually no problem. From time to time names of classes change, name of field change, yes, they are often even completely rewritten, new field variables come in some are deleted, whatever it is. The way I currently can access the name of a class makes the code safer, because when I consequently go with Class.class.getSimpleName I always know, that when I rename the class all these statements are changed too If I delete such a class, I at least get a compile error.
    My very simple issues is, that I think it would be nice to have the same comfort not only on a class level but also on the level of field variables, nothing more, nothing less.
    To be honest, I have not browsed the forum yet if such an issue was already raised by other people (I will do this now), but somehow it is hard to imagine, that I am the first one.
    Best regards.

    Jerry,
    Thanks for replying again. I've got a little bit further thanks to you. I tried the US keyboard layout as you seemed pretty definte that it should work. This time I applied the setting and also started the language toolbar and selected it from there.
    Hey presto, I've got the @ where it should be. Excellent.
    However the single quote ' works in a weird way. When I press it, it doesn't show up on the screen. But when I press another key, I get the single quote plus the next key I press. When I press the single quote twice, I get 2 of them. This is also the same with the SHIFT ' key. i.e. for the double quotes.
    Very strange. I'll look at other keyboards and see where that gets me.
    Thanks,  Maz
