Data Grid vs Data Form

Hi,
I can't remeber the followings:
When we should use a Data Grid instead of a Data Form?
what are the different features?

Data forms are meant for Data input. Though data can also be inputted in the Data grid. We use Data grid for running the consolidations. Further, in data forms the user has restricted POV while in case of Data Grid the user can select any members from the dimension heirarchy.
These are some of the differences..

Difference between Data Grid and Data Forms

Hi all,
What is the difference between data grid and data forms.

Data entry forms are pre defined and are generally used to manually input data into reporting (financial statement) schedules.
They can also be used for reviewing purposes and it gives users a presentable / and consistent format to view data in Hyperion.
Data grids are the equivalent of pivot tables in excel. It should be used for ad hoc purposes to view / analyse data in whatever form you choose. The user has the flexibility to choose what they see in the rows, columns and page dimensions.
One of the main differences between data entry forms and data grids is that you can’t export data grids to excel whereas you can with data entry forms. Other differences are:
1. Run consolidation, translation, promotion from data grids but not in data entry forms.
2. You can link other data entry forms to a data entry form
3. Data entry forms offer greater formatting options than in data grids i.e. colours, fonts, bold, italics.
At the end of the day, they are similar and there is no reason why you can’t have (use) both. It all depends on your local needs on how best you use both.
I hope above information helps.

Member Lists defined by user in Data Grids or Data Forms

Hi guys,
I'd like to know if it is possible to include in either a Data Form or a Data Grid a member list created by myself.
If it's possible, could you please tell me the steps to do so? I tried using AddMember:MemberList but it did not work.
Thanks!
L.

Hi,
We can see this option in the Member Attributes of Dimensions.
Specifies the account name used for identifying differences in intercompany transactions. The PlugAcct
attribute is required when the IsICP attribute for the account is selected.
When we run an inter-company transaction the difference amount would be reflected in Plug Account.We need to write a rule to see that difference amount in the plug Account.

Data Grid in oracle forms

Hello all,
Is there a way that I can embed a excel grid kind of control in oracle forms.
Your input will be much much more appreciated
Thanks,
Karthik

in 6i C/S you have OLE-Container, in which you can do that.
but in newer versions like 10g you need Java-Beans, no OCX, VBX or Active X or OLE-Container.
If you have a Bean, which can do that, then you can integrate it

Data Grid in Forms

Hello,
is there a data grid modul in Forms like this in VB?
I didn't found something like this.
Maybe there is a JavaBean that can do this?
Thanx
Jochen

Hi,
thanx for your fast help.
The JTable is a nice thing,
but there are two features I missed:
- click at the table header, I want to sort the data
- doubleclick at a row, I want to get the data of this row back to forms
Do somebody know about a JavaBean that can do this for me?
Thanx
Jochen

Difference between data form and data grids

Can anybody tell me what is the difference between data form and data grid.
Regards

data forms have restricted access. user can not access all the dimension and members, based on his role and authentication can access the form.
data grid r used for calculation, currency translation and coslidation and it consists of menu of options for diffrent consolidation based on cell status.
data grid can have line item information, description and cell status information.

Create Report from HFM Data Grid

Hi All,
I need to create a report out of the Data Grid created in HFM and then publish that as a PDF. I found the Reporting feature in Manage Documents that uses system reports.
And if I want a report from a data grid the Data Explorer option has to be selected for Report Type.But in this case I guess I need to create a Report Definition File and then upload it which seems to be complex.
But am not able to figure out how I can directly take a HFM Data Grid as the source and generate a PDF Report out of it.
Can this be done using BI Publisher? If so can anyone please provide the steps?
Or, can it be done using the Financial Reporting Studio ?
I sincerely appreciate any help!
Thanks in advance!

Data grid and copy/paste

I am using windows and the latest build of SQL Developer. Click on a Table name > Data tab to see the data grid representing data in the table. OR....run any SQL returning a result set. Either case, select a cell. CTRL + C now works as expected, good. But the copy operation copies a TAB too for somereason. A real pain when I paste into a manual SQL block or something.
Also, any way we can change the data grid when browsing a tables data to require a double-click to edit a cell? This would be a Good Thing(tm)
DK

The tab in the copy is good IF you are selecting multiple cells - if you only select a single cell, it is a painAgree completely, copying a single cell should have no additional characters at all.
Also agree on the double click, although I would like something similar to TOAD whereby to edit a cell that already has focus only requires a single click. I like to move the selected field around using the cursor keys (I find this quicker) and then hitting either Enter or single clicking or just start typing to begin editing. Double click would still work (for those who like to double click).

Data grid view

I would like to know does ColdFusion has data aware control like data grid view, data details view controls to show many records on the same control.

Data grid performence

Hi ,
We are developing a real time application and using data grid
for data rendering.
At least 4/5 data grid rows are being updated within one
second. For each updating data grid refresh all the visible rows
and hence it get refreshed 4/5 times in one second. This eats very
much CPU time.
Can any one suggest me how I can update a particular cell/row
without refreshing other cell/row data grid.
Thanks
Manish BIllore

Hi Prakash,
Increase the performance of the database can be related to many areas.
If you think that your database performance is poor, please check the following topics.
Hardware
     You need to detect if you have any hardware contation (I/O, Memory, CPU)
Operating System configuration.
     File system/disk distribution.
     Kernel parameters as recommended by SAP/Oracle (Unix)
     Other configurations recommende.
Oracle Profile
     Review your Oracle profile to identify possible problems in instance's configuration.
Application
     You need to identify if the performance problem is related to all system, or only by a determined transaction or process.
As you can see, performance its a long subject.
If you can detail your environment and your performance problem, includding your configuration, I will try to help you.

This is a web server folder permissions issue. Whoever installed your software and configured the web server needs to address this. Offhand I don't recall the actual solution, but I think it is the Iuser permissions which are missing for that folder.

FillBy always fills in the same row in data grid view. How to make it fill in a new row for each click of the Fillby Button? VB 2010 EXPRESS?

Hi there,
I am a beginner in Visual Basic Express 2010. I have a Point of Sale program that uses DataGridView to display records from an external microsoft access
database using the fillby query.
It works, but it repopulates the same row each time, but i want to be able to display multiple records at the same time, a new row should be filled for
each click of the fillby button.
also I want to be able to delete any records if the customer suddenly decides to not buy an item after it has already been entered.
so actually 2 questions here:
1. how to populate a new row for each click of the fillby button
2. how to delete records from data grid view after an item has been entered
Thanks
Vishwas

Hello,
The FillBy method loads data according to what the results are from the SELECT statement, so if there is one row then you get one row in the DataGridView, have two rows then two rows show up.
Some examples
Form load populates our dataset with all data as it was defined with a plain SELECT statement. Button1 loads via a query I created after the fact to filter on a column, the next button adds a new row to the existing data. When adding a new row it is appended
to the current data displayed and the primary key is a negative value but the new key is shown after pressing the save button on the BindingNavigator or there are other ways to get the new key by manually adding the row to the backend table bypassing the Adapter.
The following article with code shows this but does not address adapters.
Conceptually speaking the code in the second code block shows how to get the new key
Public Class Form1
Private Sub StudentsBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(
sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles StudentsBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click
Me.Validate()
Me.StudentsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(Me.MyDataSet)
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'MyDataSet.Students' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
Me.StudentsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.Students)
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.StudentsTableAdapter.FillBy(Me.MyDataSet.Students, ComboBox1.Text)
End Sub
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Me.MyDataSet.Students.AddStudentsRow("Jane", "Adams", "Female")
End Sub
End Class
Get new key taken from
this article.
Public Function AddNewRow(ByVal sender As Customer, ByRef Identfier As Integer) As Boolean
Dim Success As Boolean = True
Try
Using cn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection With {.ConnectionString = Builder.ConnectionString}
Using cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand With {.Connection = cn}
cmd.CommandText = InsertStatement
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CompanyName", sender.CompanyName)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ContactName", sender.ContactName)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ContactTitle", sender.ContactTitle)
cn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
cmd.CommandText = "Select @@Identity"
Identfier = CInt(cmd.ExecuteScalar)
End Using
End Using
Catch ex As Exception
Success = False
End Try
Return Success
End Function
In closing I have not given you a solution but hopefully given you some stuff/logic to assist with this issue, if not perhaps I missed what you want conceptually speaking.

Reading a csv file and bind to a data grid

hi. doing a school project and been searching. the application reads a csv file from c:\stocklist.csv, and then this in a button called btnLoadData, and now need to read in a data control called DmgDisplayData. do i put the code in the button, or in the
data grid. been searching, but cannot seem to find any thing. so, where do i put the code, in the data control, and does any one have an example code how to read into the data fields. also need to have one field, able to edit, the other three or four fields,
read only. can any one help me out. never covered this in the subject, but did do file streams a few years ago in vb, but usin g c#,a dn the help in visual studio, not that helpful, with a blind person using a screen reader, jaws for windows from http://www.freedomscientific.com,
and using visual studio 2013 community edition. can any one help me out, been searching and trawling about 15 to 20 pages so far, and did try a couple of sites, but could not find, any help. thanks. the application is to read a csv file from a button, and
load into a data grid, then have a message box, saying file load successful, then have one field, order on as edit, but the other fields, read only, so do i need the navigator buttons, for next, back, previous, etc, and how do i code that as well. not to do
it for me, want to learn, but maybe some sample code, did do navgiator controls, years ago for a vb project, but need the c # example for that, thanks. then you have a button, Save data, that saves the csv file in the data grid. so can google for that. then
have a toolbar, with a button saying, Sort Items, a tool strip, and when you click on that button, you have a drop down list, of three items, then a sort button, which will then sort the array in the data grid. so, do i need another form, or just do the combo
box as an invisible control, then just refrence, that in the toolbar. so need to use th file class and an array, learnt about single and multi arrays. any ideas. thanks.

Hi Marvin,
-->where do i put this, in the data grid click event. or in the form load event. thanks.
You could use this code after you initialize the DataGridView. you could put it in the form load event.
-->what about how get the tool bar and the combo box and another button, then sort from the combo box on the array for the collumns, for to set focus to the first read collumn for the data grid. how do i do that, close the parent form, and have another
form on the toolbar.
Since this is another issue of this thread, I would recommend you posting it with
another thread. We will focus on that thread to help you. Thanks for your
understanding.
BTW, Before you asking questions, I suggest you could learn to make it by yourself. You could begin to learn winforms in MSDN articles:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd30h2yb%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396. Or Google it, you will get many answers. In that way, you will learn more from the questions.
