Copy values from a filed to another in different blocks in same table

Hi All,
How to copy value from a filed to another field in different blocks in same form ?
example if i change value in Field A of block 1 it should reflect in Field B block 2 and again if i change in Field B block 2 it should reflect in Field A of block 1.
values will change twice or thrice then it will not change. It is happening like that.
how to do this ?
Regards

Same table / different blocks
I guess, both blocks will be marked for update, and when your user presses commit, the same table will be updated twice!
Are you sure that this is what you want to do? Is the same record current in both blocks? If so, you better use 1 block (it can be spread over several canvases and windows) and synchronize the items with the "synchronize item" property.
Anyway: If you can't apply the synchronize-property bcos the items are in different blocks, you can synchronize with 2 when-validate-item triggers.

  • Copying value from one cursor to another

    Hi,
    I have a problem while copying values from one cursor to another cursor.
    The code looks like below.
    PROCEDURE XYZ
                TransactionResultSet OUT NOCOPY types.ref_cursor,
    IS
                temp_cursor types.ref_cursor;
                wip_rec types.ref_cursor;
    BEGIN
    DECLARE
                    CURSOR temp_cursor IS
                SELECT ...........
    END;
    BEGIN     
        FOR wip_rec IN temp_cursor
        LOOP
        update tinsagr set something
        where {the condition}
            IF SQL%ROWCOUNT = 0 THEN
      dbms_output.put_line('this is test ');
            Fetch wip_rec into TransactionResultSet;
         END IF;
       END LOOP;so basically i want to iterate the "temp_cursor" and depending on the values i get it from here i shall update a table. Actually i want to exclude few records from "temp_cursor" and add it/copy rest of the records to "TransactionResultSet"
    That means say initially " temp_cursor" has 100 records and i updated 5 records in a table and same number of records should be excluded and rest should be added to the output cursor TransactionResultSet.
    How do i achieve it?
    while saving i am getting
    (1): PLS-00456: item 'WIP_REC' is not a cursor.
    Do any one has any idea what to do in such scenario?

    Hi,
    Create 1 custom controllers for each Model.
    1.Cust COntroller1:
            Node one.
            ->Attr1(type:String)
            ->Attr2(type:long)
    2.Cust COntroller2
            Node one.
            ->Attr1(type:String)
            ->Attr2(type:long)
    Through the component controller only u can send the data by mapping.
    In component controller:
      Node one.
            ->Attr1(type:String)
            ->Attr2(type:long)
    Step1:Map the elements from custControler1.
    Before mapping make sure that u have data in CustController Context=>value node.
    (Note:cust controler node s model node means copy the elements to value node using copyservice)
    step2:Go to cust controller2 goto value node and map it.
    if ur nt getting,Plz let me knw,
    Thanxs,

  • Can i copy values from one object to another ?

    One more help..
    How do i compare the input values with the ones in an object of another class ?
    Can i copy values of one object of a class to different object of another class ?
    Thanks,
    Sanlearns

    How do i compare the input values with the ones in an
    object of another class ?By getting and comparing them?
    Can i copy values of one object of a class to
    different object of another class ?Yes, you can. But you shouldn't, as you're breaking encapsulation all over the place. You could use setter methods (if available) to set the values.

  • How to copy value from one field to another in a Apex Form

    Hello guys,
    There are 2 addresses one is shipping and other is billing. I do not want the customer to re-enter all the details if it is the same address. So based upon an action, it should take the live values from one address field and populate the other address field. I know in JS you can do it, but how to implement that in Apex?
    I guess using Dynamic Actions to achieve this in Version 4 but do not know how. Read quite some info but no luck.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I have assumed that you have your shipping address at the top of the page, and then further down the page you have your billing address that you want to enable the users to copy (if this is in reverese, you will need to switch the js variables in the code following).
    I would create a Select List item above the 'Billing Address' details, called PX_SAME_ADDRESSThis select list would be static, with the options Null.
    I also assume you would have pairs of address page items such as:
    PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L1
    PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L1
    PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L2
    PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L2
    PX_SHIPPING_POST_CODE
    PX_BILLING_POST_CODEThen copy the following code into the HTML Header of the page definition:
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    function copyAddress()
       if( $x('PX_SAME_ADDRESS').value == 'YES')
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L1').value = $x('PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L1').value;
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L2').value = $x('PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L2').value;
         $x('PX_BILLING_POST_CODE').value = $x('PX_SHIPPING_POST_CODE').value;
       else //Clear Address Fields
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L1').value = " ";
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L2').value = " ";
         $x('PX_BILLING_POST_CODE').value = " ";
    </script>Then, in your PX_SAME_ADDRESS item, copy the code below into the Element > HTML Form Element Attributes field.
    onChange="copyAddress();"Hopefully this works for you too, and should give you some basis to play around with.

  • How to copy value from one frame to another frame

    Hi,
    I am new to swing prgramming .
    I have created a menu called " TopFrame " and it contains toplevel menu item "select" and select Menu contains subitems "firstframe", "secondframe", "thirdframe" and "Exit".
    When i click select->firstframe it displays a new Frame f1 with a
    textfield t1. I enter value in textfield t1 and minimise the frame.
    similarly when i click select->secondframe it displays a new Frame f2 with a textfield t1. I enter value in textfield t1 and minimise the frame.
    now when i click select->thirdframe it displays a frame f3 which contains button called "Totalvalue" and a textfield t2 .
    MY question is after opening frame f3 when i press "Totalvalue" button it should add the values from textfield t1 from both the frames f1 and f2 and display the result in textfield t2 of frame f3.
    Actually my application is big but for better understanding i have reduced the description above.
    I am posting the code...Kindly help me

    Now my question is i enter some values in t1 and t2 in frame1, and t1 and t2 in frame2 and minimise or close them...when i open frame3 and press Button1 it should take values from t1 in both frame1 and frame2 , add them and display the result in t5( in frame3)... similarly when i press Button2 it should take values from t2 in both frame1 and frame2, add them and display the result in t6(in frame3).
    Can you please tell me how can i do this?

    But i am fetching the report for a period of 1 year.
    Which means if i choose 2011 Aug then i should get the report for the period 2011 Aug to 2010 Aug.
    I am using intermediate report for this.
    Where i calculate from the original column and fetch the report using "filter based on other reports"
    But now i want to do it using prompts only.
    I want to compare whether it will make the report faster or not.
    The concept is i use "Month"(M) as prompt in all reports.
    But i want to keep "Month No"(MN) and "Previous year Month"(PYM) as prompts too.
    then trigger the value selection of combo1(MN and PYM prompts) with selection of M prompt.
    There should be no go buttons for the combo1 prompt.
    And the combo1 should be hidden so that user is able to see only "M" prompt.
    Please give your opinion for this scenario

    ok, i resolved this issue by passing URL parameters from my calling application to the called application..
    the code I used looks as follows:
    *---- Pass parameters through lt_parms table to URL
      ls_parms-name  = 'OPERATION'.
      ls_parms-value = 'M'.
      APPEND ls_parms to lt_parms.
      ls_parms-name  = 'PROJECT_ID'.
      ls_parms-value = lv_ext_id.
      APPEND ls_parms to lt_parms.
      CALL METHOD cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
        EXPORTING
          application_name = 'zps_ppm_idea_sheet'
          in_parameters = lt_parms
        IMPORTING
          out_absolute_url     = str.
      l_cmp_api = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
      l_window1 = l_cmp_api->get_window_manager( ).
      result = l_window1->create_external_window(
        URL = STR ).
      result->open( ) .
    I basically transformed my component controller context attributes to URL parameters, called the app in a new browser passing those parameters.
    Then, converted those URL parameters back to component controller context atributes for use on the other side.

  • Pass value from one VO to another VO.

    I want to create an item on the page but the value is in a different VO in the same root AM. How would I do this other than extending VO(1).
    Both the VO's are on the same page.
    Can you please let me know.
    Thanks
    Rama

    Hi,
    Not sure what is your requirement. But if it is just you want to create a new ITEM on a page and the VO's are already present then what is the issue. You can set the vo attribute of any of the VO's available.
    But if your requirement is to copy a value from one VO to another then you can iterate the VO and get the required value and set it to the desired VO row.

  • Copy Value from Item in Property Palette

    I have created a button on my form so that the user can clear the form and requery another record. In this 'when_button_pressed' trigger, I have a go_block(block_1), then a clear_block(no_validate) and so on for each of the three blocks. I am finding that items that have the Copy value from item property set to copy information from the control block, those items don't clear, therefore, causing the requery to work improperly. I have tried to copy data down to the other blocks in other triggers and using the clear_form but for some reason the clear_form(no_commit) takes me out of the form completely.
    I have run this problem through metalink and they were able to get the problem to recreate and said it must have something to do with the Copy Value from Item property but cannot explain. Has anyone ran into this problem and have found they found an answer when using the copy value property?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Toni Kueffer

    Ali,
    If I understand your question properly, you want to denormalize an attribute from a master table into a detail table, correct? If so, I'd do that in the model layer, not in the UI.
    If you share what you are using at the model layer in terms of technology, perhaps someone can be able to show you how.

  • How can i copy apps from one computer to another?

    how can i copy apps from one computer to another?

    You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
    The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.

  • How to get a value from one item into another

    How can i get value from one item into another item.
    Ex: I have a report, in there i have check boxes, and when i have checked some rows, and press submitt, a prosses computates it into a item on another page, and a branche redirects to page 3. Then i'm going to use the value in the item into a PL/SQL script in an report to show the submittet items.
    How can i do this?
    Computation script, pages and all that is fixed. But i dont know which PL/SQL statement to use to get th value from the item.

    Hi Fredr1k,
    Use the V() function from pl/sql.
    e.g. V('P3_MY_ITEM')
    will return the value of that page item.
    As long as the pl/sql is called from within the Apex environment.
    Regards

  • How we can get the values  from one screen to another screen?

    hi guru's.
         how we can get the values  from one screen to another screen?
              we get values where cusor is placed but in my requirement i want to get to field values from one screen to another screen.
    regards.
      satheesh.

    Just think of dynpros as windows into the global memory of your program... so if you want the value of a field on dynpro 1234 to appear on dynpro 2345, then just pop the value into a global variable (i.e. one defined in your top include), and you will be able to see it in your second dynpro (assuming you make the field formats etc the same on both screens!).

  • Copying photos from one computer to another, with descriptions

    After editing photo descriptions and locations in iPhoto, it is desireable to be able to copy them to iPhoto on another computer, with the associated photo descriptions and locations.  In principle, this is possible by selecting all desired photos, then selecting File -> Export...  In the Export dialog box, in the "File Export" tab, select "Include: Titles and keywords", and "Include: Location information".  Copy the exported files to the other computer, and do a File -> Import to Library ...
    In practice, this works fine with images taken by some cameras, and not with images from others.  In my limited experience with a Fuji F80EXR and a Canon SX230HS, the above work flow works with the Fuji.  But, with the Canon, while the exported files clearly have the description data embedded in them (as seen by GraphicConverter), it is not imported into iPhoto, nor is it visible in Preview's Inspector.  The workaround I use is to run an exiftool command on the exported files.
    Exiftool is a command line utility that can read and write meta data in image files:
    http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
    I run the following command on the exported files to rewrite the IPTC Caption:
    exiftool −overwrite_original_in_place -tagsfromfile %f.jpg -ext jpg -"IPTC:Caption-Abstract>IPTC:Caption-Abstract" *.jpg
    Note that the above command overwrites the files that were exported from iPhoto.  If you wish to leave the original files intact, with an "_original" appended to the file name, run:
    exiftool -tagsfromfile %f.jpg -ext jpg -"IPTC:Caption-Abstract>IPTC:Caption-Abstract" *.jpg
    I'm not sure why it is necessary to copy and rewrite that data.  Perhaps there is something strange in the format of the meta data in the file as it comes from the camera, and the iPhoto export does not correct this strangeness. Copying and rewriting the data by exiftool seems to put things right.
    The above works for me, but is somewhat unwieldy.  Is there a better way to copy photos from one computer to another, if iPhoto refuses to import the description data that it was written to the exported files?

    Thanks for the pointer.  I did a test with 10 images, and confirmed the iPLM works, even with the problematic images from my Canon SX230HS.
    The workflow is to use iPLM to create a new Library on the computer that has the photos you want to copy.  Copy the photos to the new Library.  Copy the new Library to the second computer using a method of your choice (file sharing, USB flash drive, etc).  Copy the photos from the new Library to the existing iPhoto Library.
    iPLM costs $20, whereas my original solution was free (but you need to invest the time to get exiftool installed and working).  But, unlike exiftools, iPLM also copies over the Faces information, so it is likely a worthwhile investment if you use that feature. 

  • Passing the values from one pgm to another pgm (Calling pgm has no sel scr)

    Hi gurus,
    In my requirement i need to pass the values from one program to another program.
    I am using SUBMIT statement . But , the program which i am calling has no selection screen.
    So how can i pass the values?
    Please help me ASAP.
    Regards,
    Bhanu.R

    Export your internal tables or work areas to a memory id in ur program before u use submit.
    Then in second pgm you have to import from memory id given above.
    example.
    EXPORT gs_header FROM gs_header to memory id 'HEADER'.
    EXPORT gt_item FROM gt_item to memory id 'ITEM'.
    SUBMIT YFIIN_DISHC_MAILREPORT EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY AND RETURN.
    In your second pgm you can write
    import gs_header TO gs_header from MEMORY id 'HEADER'.
    import gt_item TO gt_item from MEMORY id 'ITEM'.
