Currency list in Dropdown field

Hi,
here is a little problem I am having with creating a form.
I want to add a dropdownlist with all the currencies available. I have a list of currencies in a textfile, so I could copy&paste it. However, I cannot find any easy way of adding the data to the dropdownlist. Doing it one by one, takes too much time.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

One possibility is to add the field to the form with one or two values.
Then be sure to select the field on the Design View Tab, and switch to the XML Source tab.
You should see some text as follows a bit into the field definition:
<items save="1">
<text>Yes</text>
<text>No</text>
<text> </text>
</items>
(This is from a Yes/No/Blank dropdown I have)
by editing your list of values in NotePad (or another editor other than MS/Word).
You can prefix the items with "<text>", and suffix them with "</text>". Then paste the whole list between the <items save="1"> and </items> tags.
Good Luck!

Default value in dropdown field for FPM form in HCM Processes and forms

Hi Experts,
I am developing HCM Processes and forms using FPM forms and I had a dropdown list contains ten values. So, every time while opening the form first time, my dropdown field should be defaulted with fifth value from the list. How can we achieve this in dropdown field related to FPM Form.
Please guide me.

You would have to assign the default value to one your custom generic services.

Create a dynamic dropdown field in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI

Hello all. I am trying to create a field in one of my forms using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. I have a dropdown list of "main" items, and based on what is selected in that list, I want a second dropdown list to give different choices. I have searched and searched and have javascript that I thought might work, but maybe I am have a mistake or I am placing the javascript in the wrong place, becasue it is not working. I know very, very little about javascript, so any help would be so much appreciated.
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. I added a "new field", and selected "dropdown". The field name is ProvType. The dropdown options are:
     Inpatient
     Outpatient
     Physician
I have the "Commit selected value immediately" selected.The field is not validated. The format is "none." There are no actions or calculations associated with it.
I then created another dropbox, and named it SubProvType. Under Actions, I selected the trigger as Mouse Up, and then selected the Action "Run a JavaScript." I selected the add button, and typed this in the JavaScript editor:
switch (ProvType.rawValue)
    case "Inpatient":
        this.setItems("Hospice,Hospital,Nursing Facility");
        break;
    case "Outpatient":
        this.setItems("Adult Day Center,Home,Other");
        break;
    case "Physician":
        this.setItems("Surgeon,Family Practice,Neurologist");
        break;
What I want to happen is:
If "Inpatient" is selected, I want the following options to be available in the second dropdown box "SubProvType":
     Hospice
     Hospital
     Nursing Facility
If "Outpatient" is selected, I want the following options to be available in the second dropdown box "SubProvType":
     Adult Day Center
     Home
     Other
If "Physician" is selected, I want the following options to be available in the second dropdown box "SubProvType":
     Surgeon
     Family Practice
     Neurologist
However.... when I close the form editing and try to select a different option in the ProvType field, the SubProvType field remains blank and there are no options available. There are also no errors.
I must be missing something, but I have no idea where to start. Thank you in advance for any help anyone can provide.

dbettis2.... Please understand that everything I am about to tell you is ONLY thanks to the help I received from Gilad D. I don't know if this will help you or not, but I want to try and pass it forward.
If what you are looking to do is have two dropdown fields, and the second one (concentration) be a list determined by what was chosen in the first one (newMajor) then this will work, if you are using Adobe Acrobat Pro.
Create a dropdown field and name it newMajor. In the "options" tab. Make sure that you enter all of the items that you want in that list AND that they match the javascript (or this will not work.)
In this case, I believe you want the initial list to be:
- Select One -
BA - Communication (BACOMM)
BA - History (BAHIST)
BBA - Business Administration (BBA-BADM)
After you create the dropdown field and enter all of the options, go to the Validate tab, chose "run custom validation script", then copy and paste the following:
switch (event.value) {
    case "- Select One -":
        this.getField("Concentration").setItems(["-----"]);
        break;
    case "BA - Communication (BACOMM)":
        this.getField("Concentration").setItems(["- Select One -","None","Mass Communication (MCO1)","Theatre (THEA)","Communication Studies (MC02)"]);
        break;
    case "BA - History (BAHIST)":
        this.getField("Concentration").setItems(["- Select One -","None","Teacher Certification (HIS1)"]);
        break;
    case "BBA - Business Administration (BBA-BADM)":
        this.getField("Concentration").setItems(["- Select One -","None","Supply Chain Management (SCM)","Hospitality Management (HSMG)"]);
        break;
Then create a second dropdown field, and name it Concentration. Nothing further needs to be done with the second dropdown field (as far as entering options or any javascript.)
It should work. I have created a form using this code and field structure, and it is working. I hope this helps you, if in fact this is what you were trying to do. (I do not know how to attach a file to this post or I would send you the PDF that I made so you could see the fields. If you message me, I can send it to you.)

How to Populate a Dropdown field for a table control with different keys

Hi All,
I have Table control with abt eight columns (fields). Out of these eight field one field is with dropdown list. In table control Project ID is Primary key column. Depending upon this Project ID value, i have different values which is to be populated in dropdown boxes. In table control if there is only one project ID value say 'P000715' i can populate it but when i have more than one project ID (P000715, p000716, P000717.....) in display in rows of table control i want to have different values in my dropdown field corresponding to that row of project id. Experts please tell me how to achieve this functionality.
Thankx in Advance

The only way you may be able to do this is using
MODULE PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST. User-programmer F4 help
in your PAI routine.
In this routine you would build the list and get the returned value to update the field.
Something like this.
DATA: BEGIN OF value_tab OCCURS 0,
    field1 TYPE zlmltype,
    field2 TYPE zltypex,
END OF value_tab.
* Drop down values
REFRESH it_return_tab. CLEAR it_return_tab.
REFRESH value_tab. CLEAR value_tab.
SELECT ltype ltypex
    INTO TABLE value_tab
    FROM zlmltyp
    WHERE auth NE '9'.    "System Only
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
       EXPORTING
            retfield   = 'FIELD1'
            value_org = 'S'
       TABLES
            value_tab = value_tab[]
            return_tab = it_return_tab.
READ TABLE it_return_tab INDEX 1 INTO wa_return_tab.
CHECK sy-subrc EQ 0.
p_pleadtyp = wa_return_tab-fieldval.

Acrobat X Pro interactive Map/Dropdown fields

I create a variety of .pdfs for different purposes which are all related to the same parent (in this case a building on a site).
I now want to create an interactive map so that I can click the building (button, graphic shape or image etc) and be presented a collapsable list so that I can then select (from a list) the .pdf I am interested in (discipline specific) and open it in a new acrobat window. Each .pdf name in the dropdown list is to represent a separate .pdf file from the same or different network storage location (I am aware the file name(s)/location(s) must not change).
I have investigated Acrobat X Pro, Adobe Illustrator CS4 and Adobe InDesign CS4. I have decided to target Acrobat as Illustrator did not seem to allow linking and InDesign did not seem to allow List Boxes or Dropdowns for linking purposes. Also, I only wanted to create/manage one file (my interactive map)...my 'menu'...in graphical form...without going down the path of creating a web site.
Am I on the right track? Is this possible?
However, after adding the Dropdown field to my form (interactive pdf map), although it allowed any of the available list items to be selected, it DID NOT allow different actions for different list items!
I added two separate Open file actions (which could not be linked to the two separate list items)...one to open a pdf ffrom one location and the other to open a separate pdf from another location. When you click the field (button)...it just opens BOTH pdf files! Not what I wanted.
I would have thought that the very nature of a Dropdown list is to be able to select from a collapsable list and perform a specific action on that selection (after all, it does allow multiple similar actions, along with multiple different actions).
Can THIS be done?...in Acrobat?...in another Creative Suite application?

Thanks, but...I could not find a `combo box' field, and I have to ask why would I have to write custom code when the `dropdown' field is provided?
Why can't a different action be linked to a different list choice in a dropdown field?
If I want to perform a single action, then I would use a `single' button, but that's not what I want to do.

Automatically update dropdown fields after .XSD file edit?

Miraculously, I have managed to create a dropdown field based upon values listed in an XSD schema file. I have then copied this dropdown field many times within my form as it is required in numerous places.
Going forward, my hope was that I could simply edit the list of values in the XSD schema file without ever having to update/refresh all of fields in the form again; however, after I edit the XSD file (to create additional dropdown values), the values in the dropdown fields do not refresh automatically. Shouldn't it be as simple as this? Do I have to reopen the form and perform some kind of refresh function? Does this update all of the fields at once?
Thank you.

This sample binds the drop down items

Dropdown field - when certain entries are selected make another field unavailable for data input

Hi All,
Sorry one again I am very new to forms and have another question. I have a dropdown list which when selecting certain values I need another field to be unavailable so the user can't enter data.
Hope this example makes sense:
DropDown
Field %
Outer
Not Allowed to enter data
Back
Not Allowed to enter data
Inner
Not Allowed to enter data
Cotton
Allowed to enter data
Wool
Allowed to enter data
If someone could give me some examples that would be a great help.
Many Thanks
Adam Sadler

Here's a script that you can use for the custom Validate script of the dropdown. It resets the value of the corresponding text field whenever a change is made to the dropdown. You can get rid of the line that does this if you don't want this to happen. Change "text1" in the code to match the name of the text field you're using.
// Custom Validate script for dropdown
(function () {
    // Get the selected value
    var v = event.value;
    // Set up an object to associate read-only status of text field with items
    var f_state = {
        "Outer": true,
        "Back": true,
        "Inner": true,
        "Cotton": false,
        "Wool": false
    // Get a reference to the text field
    var f = getField("text1");
    // Clear the text field
    f.value = "";
    // Set the read-only status of the text field based on what's selected
    if (v in f_state) {
        f.readonly = f_state[v];

nope, I just gave u an example to combime day , date and year fields in one select list, it does not matter whether they are in one table or multiple table and you dont require to create any tables for this, I assumed your lov for day / date / year are dynamic not static.

Assuming you have done all the 4 below steps done in the progrm BCALV_EDIT_07,
§1.Define an extra field in your output table
   for each column where you want to use drop down listboxes.
   (One additional field refers to cells of one column).
§2.Define a dropdown table and pass it to ALV.
   One listbox is referenced by a handle, e.g., '1'.
   For each entry that shall appear in this listbox
   you have to append a line to the dropdown table
   with handle '1'.
   This handle can be assigned to several columns
   of the output table using the field catalog.
§3.Set your dropdown field editable and assign the fieldname of the
   corresponding additional field to DRDN_FIELD of the fieldcatalog.
§4.Set the handle of your additional field of your output
   table according to the listbox that shall be displayed.
I think you should be getting what is done in BCALV_EDIT_07 program.
Anyways, did you try calling the method set_ready_for_input after the set_table_for_first_display method is called?
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Balaji

Add a dropdown field to the task view that determines work hours for that task.

I'm very new to MSProject. I'm entering project data for the design, review, implementation, testing and acceptance of many subroutines. The subroutines can be categorized into an enumeration of types. 1 - direct sub , easy, 2 - direct sub,
average, 3 - direct sub complex, 4 - supervisory sub easy, 5 - supervisory sub average, 6 subervisory sub complex.
I would like to create a dropdown field that once the category has been selected, the work hours are locked. For Example if I have 50 "direct sub, easy", I want to be able to change the work hours assocated with "direct sub, easy"
in only one place and have all "50 direct sub, easy" tasks automatically use the new work hours.
Is there a way to do this in MSProject?

Denis,
Okay, let's revisit the approach. If you have six defined categories and you want to select from one of those categories for each task, then you need to create a custom field with a lookup table. Let's use the Text1 field.
1. First add the Text1 field as a column in the view, I assume you're using the Gantt Chart view
2. Select the heading of that column and go to: Project/Properties group/Custom Fields
3. That will open the Custom Fields window with Text1 already pre-selected. Hit the "Lookup" button
4. In the Edit Lookup Table window, enter each of your 6 categories. You can give each a number with a description (e.g. 1 - direct sub, easy), or just put the description in the Value field (e.g. direct sub, easy) with nothing in the description.
5. Hit close
Now when you select the Text1 field for any task, the lookup list will appear allowing you to chose of the the entries. Now you can create a filter as I suggested before and go through the process of setting the work value for all like category tasks.
Hope this helps.

List Column Dropdown Filter Missing Choices

I have a list with 1768 items. When i try to use the list column dropdown filter menu it does not give any options.
This is what I see when I click on the Client Name list column
When i click on another list column I get this.
I there anything I can do to get the options in Client Name as Status or any of the other list columns?
Thanks
James T.F

Hi James,
Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to show the values in Client Name column for filtering.
When a SharePoint List gets to a certain size, around 500 items, some fields will no longer display a proper drop down for filter choices.
Instead, it will display “Show Filter Choices”. Microsoft did this to prevent performance problems by showing more than 500 options to choose from.
As a workaround, I recommend to create views to filter the list instead.
Best Regards.

Using Webservice through RFC Func Mod Can I able to fill dropdown field

Hi,
I am going to develop offline interactive form using Webservice through RFC Function module.
There are dropdown list fields in my adobe form. Then how can I able to fill these dropdown fields in my form, I mean how to bind the values to dropdown fields.
Thanks & Regards,
nspkumar.

Hi,
Option 1:
If the form is designed in transaction SFP, which has a form interface (transaction SFI), then below solution will work:
For example consider the data node name as 'COUNTRY' . Select drop down UI element and go to 'Object' properties tab. Select 'Binding' tab, on the top right hand side of this tab there is small icon, select the icon and enable the option 'Show Dynamic Properties'. Once this option is enabled in the 'Binding' tab you can click on the link 'Specify Item Values'. A popup will open, here specify the binding value as
$record.sap-vhlist.COUNTRY.item[*]
Refer to link:
[Drop down list binding|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/en/43/7a667df4ad6fc9e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
Option 2:
If the data connection is directly to the webservice then binding needs to be done similar to option 1 except one change. While binding the value in dynamic properties based on XML schema binding needs to be changed.
As you can see in option 1, for dynamic property binding
$record.sap-vhlist.COUNTRY.item[*]
, there is a value called sap-vhlist. This 'sap-vhlist' gets generated when form is designed in transaction SFP with form interface. So in your case if data connection is from webservice value sap-vhlist needs to changed to the value as per XML schema definition.

Issue with dropdown fields

Hello All,
I have following issue with Complaints application.
Issue - We have done some enhancement using EEWB and added some fields on 'Products' tab under complaints. After that we have made some of those fields as dropdown fields in the corresponding 'Field Group'.
My problem is now I can see those dropdowns in line display under 'Products' tab but when I switch to Form view I don't see those dropdown for the corresponding fields, instead those fields appear as input text fields.
One more thing is some of the fields I can't see in the line view (Item, Product ..) which I see in form view.
Any help would be highly appriciated.
Thanks.

Hi Fausto,
According to your description, my understanding is that the drop-down list boxes of the lookup column became wide when using IE 9 or 10.
Did you customize the list form in InfoPath?
Per my test, the width of the drop-down list boxes can be customized in InfoPath.
I tested in my environment, and the lookup column worked fine in IE 9 or 10.
I recommend to add the SharePoint site to Compatibility View in IE to see if the issue still occurs.
Best regards.
Thanks
