Creating a dynamic table that spans multiple pages

Hi guys,
I have a script that is able to add rows to a dynamic table.
The issue I am having now is I want this dynamic table to span multiple pages.
I'm not exactly sure how to do this. It looks like to me that the table stops once it reaches the height of the text frame enclosing it.
How do you create a table / text frame that expands to it's contents and not the size of the text frame enclosing it. Ideally I want this table to span multiple pages.

OK, I have 3 screenshot to see if that will help. My book is a transcription of some old county records around 1800. I have a section of my book that had a list of items in text separated by a right tab.
I highlighted that text and converted it to a table. In portrait mode I can scroll and see all the table.
When I switch to landscape mode the table is cut off and does not wrap to the next page.
The text after the table appears on the next page. The preview on the ipad is the same.
Thanks for any help on figuring this out. Also, I enjoy your podcasts.

Capturing data from a dynamic table that span multiple pages

I created a PDF form that contained a dynamic table that can span across multiple pages. Additional rows in the table can be created by the person filling the form as and when needed.
The PDF form is distributed to the receipient using Adobe LiveCycle Designer.
However, when the form is "Submitted" back to the originator of the form, only data in the first row of the table is captured in the Response file. All the other rows are left out.
I would be grateful if anyone can advise me as to how do I or what shall I do to get all the data in all the rows in the table into the Response File?
Thank you.

Hi
Attached are the saved completed PDF-Form and the response file after the completed form has been submitted. I have copied this message to your gMail account.
Only data in the first row of the table is captured in the Response file.
If it is working correctly on your side, please let me know what could have gone wrong on my side.
Thank you.

How can I copy text spanning multiple pages in iBook?

I like to drop sections of text from i
books into letters, journal entries etc and for the life of me I cannot figure out the functionality of grabbing text that spans multiple pages.

Hi James,
Thank you so much for taking the time to help me out. You actually solved the problem. I am able to select as much text as I want now. The bummer is the lame feature where you cannot take more than a couple hundred words at a time. The section I wanted was about one and a half pages and it took me 3 separate copy pastes to get it all. Does anyone know of software or a trick to overcome this limitation?
James thanks again. I really appreciate your help.

How do I make a table span multiple pages?

Hello,
My team and I use a Pages doc with several tables in it. The size of these tables (i.e. the number of rows in the table) change every week. Before upgrading to Yosemite, whenever a table extended beyond one page it would continue on the next with the same headers as the original table. For some reason, the tables now instead"shift" to the next page once the number of rows becomes too much for the current page.... That is unless it is the only table on on the page, in which case it will perform in the desired manner. However, if there are multiple tables on a page, the table will move to the next page, leaving a big blank space where it used to be. I have tried playing with the "Arrange" area to no avail. I can make the table float and create a new table on the next page once the rows become too numerous, but this is not ideal. Has this feature been removed from the new pages or am I just not looking in the right place?
Thanks,
mFuture

Use Pages '09. Pages 5.5.1 is a lost cause.

How to create a dynamic table region with dynamic VO in processFormRequest

Hi All,
I have a requirement to create a dynamic table region with a dynamic VO.
I need this because at runtime only the user will select the table name. So based on that table name, i have to create a table region to display the records.
I already created a dynamic VO. Could anyone share the code for dynamic table region creation.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
You can use following sample code to create advance table columns dynamically with colum groups as well.
It assumes that you have already created advance table with ID EmpTblRN.
Below code returns column heading dynamically and if you keep your VO column names and attributes
same in all the cases (COL1, COL2.....) then you can easily use a loop to create advance table columns.
It is attaching VO attributes to OAMessageStyledText bean in the last.
Hope it helps.
OAAdvancedTableBean advTable = (OAAdvancedTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("EmpTblRN");
Serializable [] param = {currentWindowSeq.toString()};
Datum[] colHeadingArray = (Datum[])am.invokeMethod("getColumnHeading", param);
String oldGrpName = null;
String newGrpName = null;
OAColumnGroupBean columnGroup = null;
DictionaryData columnFormat = new DictionaryData();
columnFormat.put(WIDTH_KEY, "4%");
for (int i = 0; i < colHeadingArray.length; i++)
try
oracle.sql.STRUCT os = (oracle.sql.STRUCT)colHeadingArray;
Object[] colHeadAttr = os.getAttributes();
newGrpName = (String)colHeadAttr[0];
if(newGrpName!=null)
if(!newGrpName.equals(oldGrpName))
// Create a column group, create the set the column header,
// and add the column group under the advanced table
columnGroup = (OAColumnGroupBean)createWebBean(pageContext, COLUMN_GROUP_BEAN, null, "ColGroup"+i);
OASortableHeaderBean columnGroupHeader = (OASortableHeaderBean)createWebBean(pageContext, SORTABLE_HEADER_BEAN, null, "ColGroupHeader"+i);
columnGroupHeader.setText(newGrpName);
// Retrieve from message dictionary
columnGroup.setColumnHeader(columnGroupHeader);
advTable.addIndexedChild(columnGroup);
oldGrpName = newGrpName;
// Create a column, create the set the column header, and add the column
// under the column group
OAColumnBean column1 = (OAColumnBean)createWebBean(pageContext, COLUMN_BEAN, null, "Column"+i);
OASortableHeaderBean column1Header = (OASortableHeaderBean)createWebBean(pageContext, SORTABLE_HEADER_BEAN, null, "Column1Header"+i);
column1Header.setText(colHeadAttr[1].toString());
column1.setColumnHeader(column1Header);
column1.setColumnFormat(columnFormat);
columnGroup.addIndexedChild(column1);
// Create the actual leaf item under the first column
OAMessageStyledTextBean leaf1 = (OAMessageStyledTextBean)createWebBean(pageContext, MESSAGE_STYLED_TEXT_BEAN, null, "Leaf"+i);
//OARawTextBean leaf1 = (OARawTextBean)createWebBean(pageContext, RAW_TEXT_BEAN, null, "Leaf"+i);
leaf1.setViewAttributeName("Week"+(i+1));
String destination = "OA.jsp?page=/xxqc/oracle/apps/per/leaveadvance/webui/EmployeeLeaveDetailPG&personId={@PersonId}";
destination = destination + "&startDate="+colHeadAttr[1].toString()+"-"+(String)colHeadAttr[0];
destination = destination + "&addBreadCrumb=Y&retainAM=Y";
leaf1.setDestination(destination);
OADataBoundValueViewObject cssjob = new OADataBoundValueViewObject(leaf1,"Color"+(i+1));
//leaf1.setAttributeValue(oracle.cabo.ui.UIConstants.STYLE_CLASS_ATTR, cssjob);
leaf1.setAttributeValue(UIConstants.RENDERED_ATTR, cssjob);
column1.addIndexedChild(leaf1);
catch(Exception e)

Empty pages being generated when report spans multiple pages

hi folks
I have a problem when generating my pdf form that I hope you can shed some light on.
Firstly, I have a table within a table.
Eg. For each line of Table_1, a new page must be displayed.
Then for Table_2 a list of employees with the matching criteria in line_1 of Table_1 are displayed on page 1. For the next line of Table_1, the same, and so on.
My problem comes in when there are too many employees in Table_2 to fit on a single page, they span onto the next page (as they should), but the pdf form also now displays blank pages at random.
Something like this:
Page 1
--empty
Page 2
-Table_1-Line_1
-Table_2 (lines 1 - 30 of 35)
Page 3
-Table_1-Line_1
-Table_2 (lines 31-35 of 35)
Page 4
-Table_1-line_2
-Table_2 (lines 1 - 10 of 10)
Page 5
--empty
Why the empty pages? Any help will be much appreciated.
thanks.
Also worth noting. If Table_2 doesn't span multiple pages, then I don't get the empty pages.
thanks in advance
Anton Kruse

Hello,
it is clear why your first page is blank. That is because you set "top of next page" (tab binding) for every line of the outer table so every "section" starts on the new page. That is why even the first page starts on the second page (top of NEXT page for the first line is SECOND page).
About the last page... I have experienced problems when I used margins - when your page content is long, but not that long to break the page and you use a margin so the last row + margin should break the page, the last row is left on the last-1 page and the margin "appears" on the last page.
Hope this helps a bit, Otto

How to create a dynamic table were the JTable columns keep varying

How to create a dynamic table were the JTable columns keep varying based on the input to the jtable

Oooh, I lied. DefaultTableModel has an API for adding and
removing columns. I didn't know that. You should have read
the API.
As for preferring to extend AbstractTableModel rather than
DefaultTableModel, I think it's more correct. DefaultTableModel
is a simple implementation of Abstract for basic cases. It isn't
intended to be extended. I figure most people extending
DefaultTableModel are also extending JFrame, JPanel, and Thread
instead of encapsulating the first two and implementing
Runnable for the third.

PL/SQL to create a temp table that will be dropped after session ends

Is it possible in PL/SQL to create a temp table that will be dropped after the session ends? Please provide example if possible. I can create a global temp table in PL/SQL but I am not sure how (if possible) to have it 'drop' once the session ends.
DB: 10g
OS: Wiindoze 2003 Server
:-)

As others have mentioned (but probably not clearly explained), Oracle treats temporary tables differently to SQL Server.
In SQL Server you create a temporary table and it gets dropped (automatically I assume, I dont do SQL Server) after the session finishes. This will obviously allow each session to "request" a temporary table to use, then use it, and not have to worry about cleaning up the database after the session has finished.
Oracle takes a different approach...
On the assumption that each session is likely to be creating a temporary table for the same purposes, with the same structure, Oracle let's you create a Global Temporary Table a.k.a. GTT (which you've already come across). You only have to create this table once and you leave it on the database. This then means that any code written to use that table doesn't have to be dynamic code and can be verified and checked at compile time, just like code written for any other table. The difference of a GTT from a regular table is that any data you put into that table can only be seen by that session and will not interfere with any data of other sessions and, when you either commit, or end the session (depending on the "on commit delete rows" or "on commit preserve rows" option used when creating the GTT), that data from your own session will automatically be removed and hence the table is cleaned up that way, whilst the actual table itself remains.
Some people from SQL Server backgrounds try and create and drop tables dynamically in their PL/SQL code, but this leads to problems...
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 begin
2    execute immediate 'create table my_temp (x number)';
3    insert into my_temp values (1);
4    execute immediate 'drop table my_temp';
5* end;
SQL> /
insert into my_temp values (1);
ERROR at line 3:
ORA-06550: line 3, column 15:
PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
ORA-06550: line 3, column 3:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignoredi.e. the code will not compile for direct DML statements trying to use that table.
They then try and get around this issue by making their DML statements dynamic too...
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 create or replace procedure my_proc is
2 begin
3    execute immediate 'create table my_temp (x number)';
4    execute immediate 'insert into my_temp values (''A'')';
5    execute immediate 'drop table my_temp';
6* end;
SQL> /
Procedure created.... which looks great and it compiles ok... but... when they try and run it...
SQL> exec my_proc;
BEGIN my_proc; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01722: invalid number
ORA-06512: at "SCOTT.MY_PROC", line 4
ORA-06512: at line 1... oops the code has a bug in it. Our DML statement was invalid.
This is really something that would have been caught at compile time, if the statement had been a direct DML statement rather than dynamic. And thus we see the problem with people trying to write all their code as dynamic SQL... it's more likely to contain bugs that won't be detected at compile time and only come to light at run time... sometimes only under certain conditions and sometimes once it's got into a production environment. Bad Idea!!!! ;)
Far better to never create tables (or most other database objects) at run time. Just create them once as part of the database design/implementation and use them as required, allowing you to catch the most common coding errors up front before they get anywhere near a test environment or worse still, a production environment.

How to create a Dynamic table without knowing fieldcat size

Hi all, i'm trying to insert a (Jointer) of 3 selections form diffrent tables in an other dynamic table but i dont know the size of my final table, so i dont know how to create a fieldcatalog.
Can we create an internal table with those caractiristics ????

Hi,
If you know which fields (ABAP Dictionary) you're selecting then you know their size; use the following FM call: DD_NAMETAB_TO_DDFIELDS
Then you can use the following method to create your dynamic table: cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table

Problem in displaying dynamic table placed in master page

Hi all,
I have placed a dynamic table in my master page. When the page overflows the dynamic table is shown only in 1st page. I want this table to be shown in every page. Please help me solve this.
Regards,
Devaiah

hi,
Thank you all for your reply. But i cannot keep the table in body page as i want this table to be displayed in every page in the header. Actually i am displaying an address through this table.
I have moved the content area in master page to center and reduced its size and in the body page i have placed a table which will display the report. When this table overflows to next page all the contents in master page are shown except for the address table in master page. I am not sure whether i am doing it the right way as i am bit new to adobe forms.
Please let me know where am i going wrong. Also please suggest me some alternative method ( if any ) to display the address in every page if the above method is not feasible.
Regards,

I have a dynamic table that calculates the sum of all rows, no issue. I'm struggling with pulling out a subtotal though. I would like to have a check box in each row that flags those rows and gives the sum of their total. Any help would be greatly app

I have a dynamic table that calculates the sum of all rows, no issue. I'm struggling with pulling out a subtotal though. I would like to have a check box in each row that flags those rows and gives the sum of their total. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's something I threw together rq. The script is in the change event for the checkbox in the table. (Of course, you'll have to modify it to suit the names of your fields.)
var rows = xfa.resolveNodes("tblAmounts.Row1[*]");
var subtotal=0;
for (i=0; i<rows.length; i++) if (rows.item(i).cbAdd.rawValue == 1) subtotal = subtotal + rows.item(i).nfAmount.rawValue;
nfSubtotal.rawVlaue=subtotal;
