"Choose from list" / "giving up after" error

I have the following included in my script:
set whattodolist to {"Tag with iDentify", "Add to iTunes", "Cancel"}
set my_choice to choose from list whattodolist with prompt ("MP4 Detected: " & this_text)
It works as expected with the script. I'd like to add a way for the script to dismiss itself after a set interval if the user doesn't take any action. So, I tried this:
set whattodolist to {"Tag with iDentify", "Add to iTunes", "Cancel"}
set my_choice to choose from list whattodolist with prompt ("MP4 Detected: " & this_text) giving up after 30
Note that I added the "giving up after..." to the end of the prompt. However, it won't compile. I get an error stating "Expected end of line, but found identifier". Any advice?

The standard display dialog command actually supports three options, so you might be able to fit your near-term needs with that:
display dialog "MP4 Detected. What would you like to do?" buttons {"Cancel", "Tag with iDentify", "Add to iTunes"} default button 3 giving up after 30
Once you get past three choices your options are limited...

If Choose from list function included after SBO 2004 patch 31?

Hi, there
I know Choose from list function valid in SBO 2005, but I don't know if it is included in SBO 2004, especially after SBO 2004 patch 31?
Thanks.

Hi Indika,
You are right - the Choose from list is only available from SBO 2005.

3)But it is showing error exception while clicking on raw choose from list(Already existing raw choose from list)
4) But created choose from list working perfectly
I have written code like this

Choose from list - data display with condition

Hi,
I 've developed a form using screen painter, I ' ve attached a choose from list to fill GRPo Number. In the choose from list the GRPo no. should not display again which once I have selected and saved.
Let me have a good solution please and it would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Venkatesan G.

Hi suresh,
where did you put this code?....In the choose_from_list event handler?..I've tried a similar solution, before reading your post, but it doesn't work because if i dynamically set the condition for the choose from list i got an empty table.
i've tried to put my code when beforeaction=true and i have this kind of problem. The difference is that i need to set the filter starting with the value i've entered on the field connected to the choose from list. I put code here, so it's more clear
If (pVal.Before_Action = True) And (pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_CHOOSE_FROM_LIST) Then
                    Dim oCFL As SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromList
                    Dim oCons As SAPbouiCOM.Conditions
                    Dim oCon As SAPbouiCOM.Condition
                    Dim sItemCode As String
                    oEditText = oMatrix.Columns.Item("V_ItemCode").Cells.Item(pVal.Row).Specific
                    sItemCode = oEditText.Value.ToString
                    oCFL = oForm.ChooseFromLists.Item("CFL_Item")
                    oCons = oCFL.GetConditions()
                    oCon = oCons.Add()
                    oCon.Alias = "ItemCode"
                    oCon.Operation = SAPbouiCOM.BoConditionOperation.co_START
                    oCon.CondVal = sItemCode
                    oCFL.SetConditions(oCons)
                End If
My situation is that i type something in V_ItemCode column and after that i press the tab key to open the choose from list.
Would be ok if i get the SAP standard beahviour too, that doesn't open the choose from list, but fills the field with the first code starting with what you type.
Thanks in advance

Change data in existing "Choose from list" matrix

Hi,
in UI GUI->order form . When add a new order, hit "TAB" to select BP from existing list. I want to use my own sql to populate the BP list (currently the GUI defaults to return all customers).
Is there a way? I mean if I just want to change data in the matrix and let B1 continue to make the "Choose from list" form (form "10001") with my own new customer list. Set BubbleEvent = true will just re-read all cards after I query my result.
any help is appriciated!

Hello,
I came across the same issue with the Items Choose from List on the Sales Order screen. It is possible to load your own Choose from List form and populate the matrix using recordset objects and userdatasources. The same logic could be applied to the BP Choose from List form. The following code displays the user form and matrix items - separate code is needed to handle the selection process on this form. There maybe a faster way of acheiving this using UDTs etc but it seems to work ok.
'When user presses Tab key in Item No. column.
If pVal.EventType = et_KEY_DOWN Then
If pVal.ItemUID = "38" And pVal.ColUID = "1" And _
pVal.Before_Action = True And pVal.CharPressed = vbKeyTab Then
'Load new Choose from List form.
'This is actually an exported and edited version of the SBO form.
LoadFromXML sIIS_ITEMLIST_XML
'Populate matrix with items returned from SQL query.
'Use recordset, arrays, userdatasources.
Set oRecordSet = oCmp.GetBusinessObject(BoRecordset)
sSql = "Select OITM.ItemCode, OITM.ItemName, OITM.OnHand FROM OITM " & _
    "Where Upper(Left(OITM.ItemCode,2)) = 'B1'"
oRecordSet.DoQuery sSql
nRows = oRecordSet.RecordCount
If nRows <> 0 Then
'Array declarations.
Dim ItemCode(), ItemName(), OnHand()
ReDim ItemCode(nRows - 1)
ReDim ItemName(nRows - 1)
ReDim OnHand(nRows - 1)
'Add userdatasources to form.

oForm.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add "ItemName", dt_LONG_TEXT, 100
oForm.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add "OnHand", dt_LONG_NUMBER
i = 0
'Populate arrays from recordset.
Do While oRecordSet.EOF <> True
    ItemCode(i) = oRecordSet.Fields.Item(0).Value
    ItemName(i) = oRecordSet.Fields.Item(1).Value
    OnHand(i) = oRecordSet.Fields.Item(2).Value
    oRecordSet.MoveNext
    i = i + 1
Loop
'Bind data fields to form items.
Set oMatrix = oForm.Items.Item("7").Specific
Set oColumn = oMatrix.Columns.Item("ItemCode")
oColumn.DataBind.SetBound True, "", "ItemCode"
Set oMatrix = oForm.Items.Item("7").Specific
Set oColumn = oMatrix.Columns.Item("ItemName")
oColumn.DataBind.SetBound True, "", "ItemName"
Set oMatrix = oForm.Items.Item("7").Specific
Set oColumn = oMatrix.Columns.Item("OnHand")
oColumn.DataBind.SetBound True, "", "OnHand"

    oMatrix.AddRow
    oUItemCode.Value = ItemCode(i - 1)
    oUItemName.Value = ItemName(i - 1)
    oUOnHand.Value = OnHand(i - 1)
    oMatrix.SetLineData
Next i
End If
'Show form. This also sets focus to edittext field.
oForm.Visible = True
'Don't display standard SBO item list form.

Associating a Custome ResultSet with a Choose From List

Hi Experts,
I have to Link the Chose from List with a UDO for accessing the records from the Parent Table /Child Table
How to crack this problem?
Also I have to associate the Results of a custom query in a choose from list so that when I press TAB over a Text Box I get a Choose From List which displays the Results and I could select one of those rows.
Plz Hint me for this Problem

Hello,
When you create CFL, just set your UDO type with oCFLCreationParams.ObjectType = "My_UDO", the collumn to be displayed in CFL has been determined by Find Service in your UDO definition.
As per custom query, actually you can set the condition to do so. Direct customed SQL is not supported in CFL. You may refer to the SDK sample for further info after you install SDK component:
<<C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One SDK\Samples\COM UI\VB.NET\17.ChooseFromList>>
Private Sub AddChooseFromList()
        Try
            Dim oCFLs As SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromListCollection
            Dim oCons As SAPbouiCOM.Conditions
            Dim oCon As SAPbouiCOM.Condition
            oCFLs = oForm.ChooseFromLists
            Dim oCFL As SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromList
            Dim oCFLCreationParams As SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromListCreationParams
            oCFLCreationParams = SBO_Application.CreateObject(SAPbouiCOM.BoCreatableObjectType.cot_ChooseFromListCreationParams)
            ' Adding 2 CFL, one for the button and one for the edit text.
            oCFLCreationParams.MultiSelection = False
            'Just Set your UDO type.
            oCFLCreationParams.ObjectType = "My_UDO"
            oCFLCreationParams.UniqueID = "CFL1"
            oCFL = oCFLs.Add(oCFLCreationParams)
            ' Adding Conditions to CFL1
            oCons = oCFL.GetConditions()
            oCon = oCons.Add()
            oCon.Alias = "CardType"
            oCon.Operation = SAPbouiCOM.BoConditionOperation.co_EQUAL
            oCon.CondVal = "C"
            oCFL.SetConditions(oCons)
        Catch
            MsgBox(Err.Description)
        End Try
    End Sub

Custom Choose From List

Hi all,
I am trying to develop a custom choose from list functionality for my addon. I have created two forms first.srf and second.srf .In the key down event of an edittext in my first form i wrote the code for opening the second form
LoadFromXML("Second.srf")
    Private Sub LoadFromXML(ByRef FileName As String)
            Dim oXmlDoc As Xml.XmlDocument
            oXmlDoc = New Xml.XmlDocument
                   Dim sPath As String
            sPath = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath()
            sPath = sPath.Remove(sPath.Length - 3, 3)
            oXmlDoc.Load(sPath & "" & FileName)
            B1Connections.theAppl.LoadBatchActions(oXmlDoc.InnerXml)
     End Sub
second form is loading very well but my problem is that in the form load event of the second form when i try to access the grid i will get an error message
Item - Invalid Item [66000-3]. Form unique Id "Second", Item Unique Id : "grdItem"
I am using SAP B1 8.8 PL 10, visual Studio 2008 and B1DE 2.1.
Any help
Regards
Arun

Hi Sebastian,
Thanks for your reply. i used
Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form = B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.GetForm("FrmSecond", 0)
to get the form also tried
Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
oForm = B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.ActiveForm
but not working . second forms unique id and type are set correctly but the object type is not set because this form is not binded to any UDT.
The OForm objects item count is always 0
Thanks in advance

Arun

Is it possible to populate a Choose From List manually?

Hi
I've got a requirement in a SDK screen that needs to be written to have a Choose From List contained on a Matrix column that should allow the selection of Item Masters as well as the selection of specific data contained within a User Defined Table. Whenever using ChooseFromLists I've always only ever used them to link to a object such as Items, Sales Order etc. and not a combination, or even to a User Defined Table. Is this even possible.
If not I guess the only way around it would be to create a form mimicking the ChooseFromList which I could populate with what ever I like?
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steven,
Yes, Its possible which behaves as system CFL.
Design the form like cfl having grid, choose button, cancel button and edittext of find. When you tab on edittext on form open the CFL form and after load form fill the grid by Datatable using sql query. Write code for select grid line on click of grid. Write the code on choose button which retrive value from grid.
Thanks,
Mahesh

Choose from List-CFL button is not visible

Hi Experts,
I am using SAP B1 8.8 PL 05 in ramp up. I have observed that in some of the clients PCs in Sales Order window I am not able to see the Choose from list button / CFL button for selecting Customer Or say Item.
This happens only in some Client PCs, where as in other clients PCs it works fine.

Removing Duplicates from a choose from list

Hi All,
I have a choose from list of obj 73 )Catalog Numbers (Table OSCN)
I also added conditions in the CFL that it only shows the Substitute for the CardType = 'S' (Supllier) Business Partners.
But I want to remove all the duplicate Substitutes from the CFL so that only distinct Catalog Numbers shows in the CFL.
        // Adding 2 CFL, one for the button and one for the edit text.
                oCFLCreationParams.MultiSelection = false;
                oCFLCreationParams.ObjectType = "73";
                oCFLCreationParams.UniqueID = "CFL1";
                oCFL = oCFLs.Add(oCFLCreationParams);
                //Adding Conditions to CFL1
                oCons = oCFL.GetConditions();
                oCon = oCons.Add();
                oCon.Alias = "Substitute";
                SAPbobsCOM.Recordset oSuppliers = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.BoRecordset);
                oSuppliers.DoQuery("Select Distinct t1.Substitute From OSCN t1 Join OCRD t2 on t1.CardCode = t2.CardCode Where t2.CardType = 'S' Group By t1.Substitute");
                oCon.Operation = SAPbouiCOM.BoConditionOperation.co_EQUAL;
                while (!oSuppliers.EoF)
                    oCon.CondVal = oSuppliers.Fields.Item(0).Value.ToString();
                    oCon.Relationship = SAPbouiCOM.BoConditionRelationship.cr_OR;
                    oCon = oCons.Add();
                    oCon.Alias = "Substitute";
                    oCon.Operation = SAPbouiCOM.BoConditionOperation.co_EQUAL;
                    oSuppliers.MoveNext();
                oCFL.SetConditions(oCons);
Please advise....
Kind Regards,
Brenden Draper

Hi Brenden,
what you are trying to archieve won't work. Simply because CFL is getting all row data from OSCN and ItemCode or CardCode can differ for a specific substitute.
For example.
ItemCode,CardCode,Substitute
ItemA,BP1,sub1
ItemA,BP2,sub1
Would be 2 resultlines both with sub1 as substitute.
SQL equivalent :
Select Distinct t0.* from oscn t0 inner join OCRD t1 on t0.CardCode = t1.CardCode where t1.CardType = 'S'
My advise would be to open a simple form with a grid and datatable bound.
Some lines of coding and you get all you need.
regards,
Maik

Edit and text and choose from list

hello,
I am trying to create a form that resemle to the purchase order form.
In the purchase order form when we select the card code from the choose from list
the system fill all the fileds like the name docnum .. with relevant information.
i tried to do that by using the vent et_evaluate of the edit text bind with the Card code in my form.
The problem is that when i clik on the choose from list button the event is lanched and then the value of the card code is "" so i can't crate my queries to get the infomation like suplier name and ..
does any body have an answer?
This my code:
switch (pVal.ItemUID)
                                            case "3":

Hey Achref,
You can use the event and code like this:
string vendCode = string.Empty;
SAPbouiCOM.IChooseFromListEvent oCFLEvento = (SAPbouiCOM.IChooseFromListEvent) pVal;
string sCFL_ID = oCFLEvento.ChooseFromListUID;
SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromList oCFL = oVendorSourcingForm.ChooseFromLists.Item(sCFL_ID);
SAPbouiCOM.DataTable oDataTable = oCFLEvento.SelectedObjects;
if (oDataTable != null)
     //get selected value from datatable
     if (oDataTable.Rows.Count > 0)vendCode = oDataTable.GetValue(0, 0).ToString();
Also check out 17.ChooseFromList in the samples that you can download.
Hope that helps

Create choose from list in Report selection criteria

Hi all,
Is it possible to create a choose from list in UDF in a Report selection criteria ?
My issue is i just want to create a report using crystal report. In this report contain some parameter which the parameter choose from list value is come from a UDT. If the value come from OCRD or OITM , it's so easy to make. I just make Customer @From OCRD in parameter CR, then i just preview, it will make choose from list from business partner. But how about from UDT.
I have try to make it using Formatted search. So in SAP B1, i binded with formatted search in some parameter that i make it in CR. But there is some thing odd. if I make 2 different report with different parameter. The formatted search with binded in the first report, will also binded in the second report. And i don't want this happen.
How can i make it , the formatted search didn't binded in second report parameter, because the second report is totally different. ?
thanks in advance
regards
Jia shun

Hi Jia
Try this
@UDT
     Code          Alpha(8)
     Name          Alphe(30)
     Fields      etc
Define the parameter token as follows.
Season@SELECT DISTINCT T1.Code, T1.Name FROM OADM T0 CROSS JOIN "@UDT" T1
OADM only has one record so the join will return the right number of records.
Hope this helps

Choose From List and Golden arrow link in System Matrix UDF column

I'm wondering if there is a way through the SDK to create a 'Choose From List' and Golden arrow linked button in a System Matrix UDF column?
For example the Item Code in a sales order matrix does both.

Hi,
Try this code for adding CFL.
               SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromListCollection oCFLs = null;
                SAPbouiCOM.Conditions oCons = null;
                SAPbouiCOM.Condition oCon = null;
                oCFLs = oForm.ChooseFromLists;
                SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromList oCFL = null;
                SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromListCreationParams oCFLCreationParams = null;
                oCFLCreationParams = ( ( SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromListCreationParams )( SBO_Application.CreateObject( SAPbouiCOM.BoCreatableObjectType.cot_ChooseFromListCreationParams ) ) );
                oCFLCreationParams.MultiSelection = false;
                oCFLCreationParams.ObjectType = "object id ";
                oCFLCreationParams.UniqueID = "CFL1";
                oCFL = oCFLs.Add( oCFLCreationParams );
               oColumn.ChooseFromListUID = "CFL1";
              //where oColumn is the instance of that column.
Hope u will get help....
Thanks and Regards,
