Custom list column not showing up in View Order by or Group by dropdown list

Hi All,
I have created a custom list with a custom column called "Description". Some items in the list do not have a description. What I wanted to do is create a view where the items with a description show first, and the items with no description are
at the bottom of the list. I thought I could make a simple view that uses the Order by or Group by on the description column.
The problem I am having is the description column doesn't show up in the dropdown list for either Order by or Group by within the custom view. Can someone please tell me why this happens and if there is anything I can do to rectify this problem.
I hope you can help
Colin

Hi,
I believe the "Description" field type is Multiple Lines of Text. Sorting doesn't allow in this field type. In order to do the sorting, you would require to create additional column like single line of text column (note that it supports only 255
chars and require to truncate the data if more than 255) and update the data using event receiver or workflow. and do the sorting with that column.

    Please let me know..
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    Welcome you post on the forum.
    What add-on is this? Is this open item list for work orders by the add-on?

  • Category drop down list does not show all taskes

    Hi, I created a project using product Upgrade Assitant for Release 12. I did not add any customized tasks. I just need to run the default tasks for upgrading 11i to r12. I did the setup following Maintenance Wizard User Guide Release 2 without any problem. But when I try to run the steps, the category drop down list only show one task: Configuration. Where are all other categories? Thanks

    Hi, Thank you for the reply. I did successfully finished all the 4 tasks for the configuration category without any errors. I want to continue with other tasks. But the drop down list does not show anything else except Configuration. From the user guide:
    Important Notes:
    • To view the full list of categories applicable to your installation, you must complete all of the steps in the Configuration category. When you complete these steps, you must refresh the lower left pane of your Web browser. The entire list of categories appears.
    What does this mean "you must refresh the lower left pane of your Web browser". I don't see anything to be refreshed. But even after I restarted mw (it must be refreshed now), the category list still now shown.

    I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email.  When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced.  How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

    With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
    In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
    That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
    Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

  • Cross Farm: User Profile Custom Properties do not show up in the consumer farm web applications

    I have a two SharePoint 2010 farms, one is the publishing farm and user profile service is running on this farm. I have defined a couple of new custom properties, and after a while these custom properties do not show up at the consumer farm end.
    So, on the publishing farm, I can udpate the user profiles with values in these custom properties. However, neither the custom properties nor the values got synchronized to the consumer farm. What puzzled me further is that some of the existing custom properties
    exist on the consumer farm, but not the new custom properties I recently added.
    1. I have made sure the application pool accounts on both the farms being added to the administrators with full control permission in UPS on the publishing farm.
    2. The User Profile Service proxy (connected to the publishing farm UPS application)  is associated with all the web applications on the consumer farm.
    3. When values in the user profiles on the publishing farm changed, these changes do not get replicated to the consuming farm user profiles. This symptom occurs on both custom and OOB user profile properties.
    However, I cannot find any other related information on the web, nor from the ULS logs.

    Hi,
    As I understand, it did not display the new custom properties you defined in the publishing farm at the consumer farm end.
    1. Check if the topology Discovery Service Application runs well in consuming farm. In the Central Administration, it is the Application Discovery and load Balancer Service Application, check if it starts.
    In the IIS, it is the topology, check if it starts.
    2. Check the permissions have been established if you have established consumer farm permissions on Provider Farm before you publish the service application.
        1. Go to Central Administration and going to “Manage Service Applications”.
        2. Click on “Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application” and click “Permissions” from the ribbon.
    Your farm GUID should be listed with full permissions.

  • My contact list does not show all my contacts.

    My contact list does not show all my contacts.  If I keypad a number not shown in the contacts it does know who that contact is.  What can I do to show all contacts?  I have 352 contacts in the phone.

    Do you have different Groups for contacts?  For example, perhaps you have some contacts stored on the device, some associated with a Yahoo account, and others associated with an Exchange account.  If you have multiple groups like this, tap the "Groups" button at the top-left corner in Contacts and see if you're looking at only a subset of your contacts.  There is an option to view "All Contacts", which summarizes them all for you.

  • Problem with Css styles not showing in live view or when i browse

    I am using Mac osx 10.6 and building website with Dreamweaver CS5.  Sometimes div tags i create not showing styles or rendering in live view or when I browse but  showing in design view. I looked in dreamwever faq and they talk about not showing in design view to toggle the display styles. That is not the problem becuase it is check marked and I tried turning off and turning on and made no difference.I am using firefox browser.
    It happened before the other day too. But all of my other pages in this site that i have created the same way building with div tags and css styles. So not sure what the problem is. Maybe someone has a suggestion here.

  • Custom JMX MBeans not showing JRMC under Weblogic 10.3.1

    Hi,
    I have created some custom JMX MBeans and registered them with the Runtime MBean Server as described in the documentation in a ApplicationLifecycleListener. Even though the ObjectInstances I get back from the MBeanServer indicate that the MBean is registered, when I connect to the server using JRockit Mission Control I only see the standard Weblogic MBeans and my custom MBeans do not show.
    Side note, when I deploy my application in Weblogic 9.2.3 my custom MBeans do show in JRMC? Weird!!!! Both servers are in development mode and both are using JRockit as the JVM.
    Regards,
    Mark P Ashworth

    You should be able define a remote connection to the WLS MBean server in the JRMC Console in the same fashion as in JConsole. You will however loose a lot of functionality, since (I assume) the JVM MBeans in the platform MBean server will not be avilable from the WLS specific MBean server. Pretty much the only remaining tabs of interest will be MBean browser and the trigger tabs. I guess you could also redefine the other tabs to show WLS specific attributes of interest.
    If you wish to monitor the JVM MBeans in the platform MBean server together with the WLS MBeans, then you need to make WLS use the platform MBean server instead of its own, just like the previous entry suggested.

  • PhpBB2 source code does not show in design view /CS3

    I would like to customize a php bulletin board.
    The default bulletin board page does not show in design view.
    Is there a way to do it , such that php code can be written
    by DreamWeaver via the design view ?

    > The files I am trying to edit, or that is think I should
    be trying to edit ,
    > are
    > index.php , and in the includes file template.php
    If I am sorting this out correctly, which i am _not_ sure of
    at the moment:
    those aren't .tpl files.
    they are .php files, and are part of the forum. They aren't
    displaying in
    design view because they are all php.
    You need to find and edit the template files.
    In previous link given:
    http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=10764
    <q>
    So where do I find these great 'templates'?
    Look in /templates/subSilver (thoroughout the FAQ I will be
    using subSilver,
    the default template. If you are using a different template
    then change the
    folder you look in accordingly). You will see a collection of
    files there.
    The templates are the ones with the file extension '.tpl' The
    majority of
    files in that folder are .tpl files. </q>
    strongly suggest you make a backup copy of anything you try
    to touch.

  • Onlive TV listing does not show HD listing for series when I try to create a recording

    It happened now already several times the the "Online TV Listing" does not show HD listing for series when I try to create a recording. Instead, it will show two series options in SD. Is this to make people use less bandwidth?
    Here is what I am doing:
    I go to this link  https://www.verizon.com/fiostv/myservices/members/fiostv.aspx
    Then to ...........DVR Manger
    select  ...........Record A Show
    I type search e.g. Nathan for You
    I click on ........Search
    and I select ......Click here to Show Details
    Then I get to chose from 2 (the same) SD channels.
    Nathan for You
    190 Comedy Central
    Tue, Jul 29 10:30 PM
    Record Show Record Series
    Nathan for You
    190 Comedy Central
    Tue, Aug 05 10:30 PM
    Record Show Record Series
    But there is the same on channel 690 HD!
    This happens not only to this particular channel!
    I remember it used to show also the HD channels.
    The only way to schedule in HD is to find the listing in the TV schedule, at the right time and there you will get the
    correct choices for both SD & HD.
    Can this be fixed?
    Thanks!
