Dropdown list in table control

Hi,
how do i create dropdown list in table control with reference to the database table field names? (dropdown list will be populated with the particular table field names upon selecting the input help value from an input box).
please provide sample codes.
thanks.
will reward marks if useful.

ok i have checked that for the past few days but its not what i want.
i am using wizard to do this and i need to populate the database table records (individual field names) and display in the table control dropdown list.
what the demo shows is only how to display a dropdown list with reference to the table names.

Dropdown List in table - multicolumn foreign key

Hello,
Steve Muench has a nice screencast how to create a dropdown list in an editable adf table.
Is there a way how to update this example to work with multicolumn foreign key between edited table and lookup table?
Let's say lookup table has Code, Line attributes as primary key and edited table has foreign key attributes MasterCode and MasterLine. How populate the FK attributes by dropdown list?
For editable table it's probably not possible directly from dropdown list. I tried to find a solution but I had problem to identify which lookup row was selected.

Drop down list in Table Control - Value disappeared after pressing ENTER

Dear Gurus,
I have a problem in one of my development where I used a table control in which one field is a drop down list.
I used VRM_SET_VALUES and VRM_GET_VALUES for populating the values from the programand not use any domain level value table for that field.
My problem is when I select one value from this list , and pressing enter , the value get disappeared. But if I use a domain for this field with value table then everything working properly.
My doubt is am I doing some miss coding or using the VRM_ function modules improperly ?
I am sharing some code with you
in PAI :
CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_GET_VALUES'
    EXPORTING
      id            = 'ITAB-FIELD3'    "This is drop down list element on screen
    IMPORTING
      values        = values[]    " even it is not the expor parameter...it will work..
   EXCEPTIONS
     id_not_found   = 1
     OTHERS         = 2.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
No sy-subrc check required.
ENDIF.
IN PBO
CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
       EXPORTING
            id     = 'IVBAP-ERNAM'
            values = values[].
Can you please help me.
Thanks .

Exact cell in list and Table Control

Hi,
Is there someone who knows,
how to to get exact cell from lists (START-OF-SELECTION)
or from Table Control.
For example:
In list I wrtie:
number name date
1234    | es    | 10/07/07
and now if I click for example on "es" now there should window apear about name "es"
the same with Table Control.
I know that get selected line is not the problem
but how to get column ???
Please it's very important
Best regards,
Greg.

hi,
You can retrieve information either about the current field or the current line.
For field information, use this syntax:
GET CURSOR FIELD <f> [OFFSET <off>]
                                      [LINE <lin>]
                                     [VALUE <val>]
                                     [LENGTH <len>].
This statement transfers the name of the field on which the cursor is positioned during a user action into the variable <f>. If the cursor is on a field, the system sets SY-SUBRC to 0, otherwise to 4.
The system transports the names of global variables, constants, field symbols, or reference parameters of subroutines. For literals, local fields, and VALUE parameters of subroutines, the system sets SY-SUBRC to 0, but transfers SPACE as the name.
The options have the following effects:
OFFSET <off>
The field <off> contains the position of the cursor within the field. If the cursor is on the first column, <off> = 0.
LINE <lin>
The field <lin> contains the number of the list line on which the cursor is positioned (SY-LILLI).
<b>VALUE <val></b>
The field <val> contains the character string output representation of the field on which the cursor is positioned. The representation includes formatting characters.
LENGTH <len>
The field <len> contains the output length of the field on which the cursor is positioned.
<b>you try with this logic.</b>
**define variables for holding field name and field values
DATA: fieldname type n,
          fieldval      type n.
<b>GET CURSOR FIELD fieldname VALUE fieldval </b>
now the fieldname and fieldval variables hold the values which was selected by user based on cursor position.
the variable declarations based on your selected fields.

Getting problem in binding DropDown List with table data in visual JSF

Hi All,
I am new to visual JSF.
I am getting few problems while working over components.
I have succeeded in binding data of Person table in a drop down list .
By just drag drop ..it worked.
But while connecting to external DB this drag drop mechanism didn't work for me .
1st problem that i faced was by dragging method columns are not visible when i did right click-> bind to Data -> DataProvider window .
But i am successfully printed table Data in backend ie: by putting
for(int i=0; i<xn_white_listDataProvider.getAllRows().length;i++){
       System.out.println(" value :"+xn_white_listDataProvider.getValue("SUB_ID",xn_white_listDataProvider.getRowKey(Integer.toString(i))));
}I am not getting how to set Items in dropdown1
I tried putting
HelloSh.xn_white_listDataProvider.options['XNODE.XN_WHITE_LIST.SUB_ID, XNODE.XN_WHITE_LIST.SUB_ID'but it didn't work while for person data table
items="#{HelloSh.personDataProvider.options['PERSON.PERSONID,PERSON.NAME']}"it is working
when i am writting items="24,28" in dropdown1 box
& printing its value in static text Like
<webuijsf:staticText id="staticText3" style="position: absolute; left: 72px; top: 120px" text="#{HelloSh.dropDown1.items}"/> it is printing fine .
Plz help me in this regard.
Any clarification if needed plz let me know.
Thanks in advance.

<h:selectOneMenu id="menu1" styleClass="selectOneMenu">
<f:selectItems value="*#{selectitems.pc_DynamicPortletEdit.regList}*" />
</h:selectOneMenu>When we bind the list to the h:selectOneMenu the code in the JSP will be as given above.
My doubts here are
1) But when i tried to bind the list to a selectonemenu the code in the JSP is looking like this one
<h:selectOneMenu id="menu1" styleClass="selectOneMenu">
<f:selectItems value="*#{selectitems.pc_DynamicPortletEdit.regList.regList.toArray}*" />
</h:selectOneMenu>2) Also in the runtime instead of displaying the values in the dropdown, i am getting the object names (javax.faces.model.SelectItem@680d0ccc) in the drop down.
What am I doing wrong? Any help here would be usefull for me.
BTW,
the code in the backing bean for setting the values is like this
List dropListValue = new ArrayList();
    for (int x=0; x<result.length; x++){ //where result is array of string values
        SelectItem tempSelect = new SelectItem();
        tempSelect.setLabel(result[x]);
        tempSelect.setValue(result[x]);
        dropListValue.add(result[x]);
this.setRegList(dropListValue );The bean is in request scope only.

How to create dropdown list in table

dear friends,
i created one table in dynpro. In table i have one column dropdown by index. when i changed the value in dropdown box , same value reflect in all row in addition of row where i selected the value. please somebody tell me what i should do????
regards,
sunil sharma

Hi,
If you have got 10 rows, In the first row if you have selected some value from dropdown then you want to have this same value
to be shown across the other rows of the same column right. Also for the new row you want the same value right.
if this is the case, then first implement the action for leadselect for that dropdown.
if your node has 3fields, empno, begda, endda. for ex: endda is the dorpdown by index.
In the OnleadSelect event -
Write this code -
You will get the element right. for that element get the record using
get_static_attributes into ls_table1.
Now,
loop at lt_table into ls_table.
ls_table-endda = ls_table1-endda.
modify lt_table from ls_table index sy-tabix.
endloop.
lo_nd_node->bind_table( lt_table).
Or
Also try this out.
Using the GET_ELEMENTS of IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE
loop at lt_elments into ls_elmenets.
ls_elements->set_attribute
exporting
name = `ENDDA`
value = ls_table1-endda.
endloop.

Lekha.

How to put drop down in table control ?

Hi All,
I m writing one module pool program to edit table.
I want dropdown to one field so that user can select the appropriate value. And also I want to save that record.
So how to get the dropdown list and after editing that record how to save that in the database?
Thanx in advance.
-Umesh

Hi Umesh,
Please check this demo program RSDEMO_TABLE_CONTROL on how to add drop down list in table control. Also check this program DEMO_DYNPRO_TABCONT_LOOP_AT as well.
To save to database you can code something like this in PAI.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100 INPUT.
SAVE_OK = OK_CODE.
CLEAR OK_CODE.
CASE SAVE_OK.
    WHEN 'SAVE'.
      MODIFY <database table> FROM TABLE <table control>.
      IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
      ELSE.
      ENDIF.
    WHEN OTHERS.
ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE.                 " USER_COMMAND_0100 INPUT
Hope this will help.

Dropdown list in infotype table control

Hello,
I am creating a custom HR infotype with dropdown list field. This field holds a key but displays a text from text table. Dropdowns contents are dependant on Start Date of the infotype record and I am using PBO module to fetch this data. Everything works fine except one detail. Infotype has automatically generated overview table control, which holds various data including Start Date of infotype record and the dropdown field in question. And even that would work well if not for the date, in case when I drop the date check dropdowns in all rows get populated. Currently it seems to only use the date on the last row of the table control and subsequently fails to correctly populate dropdowns in all other rows. With no access to SAP code which populates table control, how do I get the date for each individual row?
Best regards, Armins

Hi Marty,
For this you have to create 2 nodes
1. A node which will be bound to the table. This will be a singleton node.
2. A node for dropdown. This node should be inside the table node and should be a non-singleton one.
Check the singleton properties of both the nodes above.
Whenever you will create an element for table node, an instance of the dropdown node will be automatically created.
To set the value in this dropdown at leadselection, you can use the below logic
1. Assume you know the value of the fruit to be set in the dropdown
2. for(int i = 0; i < wdContext.nodeFruit().size(); i++)
          if( wdContext.currentTableNode().nodeFruit().getFruitElementAt(i).getFruit().equals(fruitName) )
                wdContext.currentTableNode().nodeFruit().setLeadSelection(i);
                break;
Hope this helps 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
Rizwan Ahmad Siddiqui

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.

List Box with Variable Entries in a Table Control

Hi ,
   I have a requirement where a certain column F of the table control should be designed as dropdown list box. The problem is, i have to populate different entries for field F in each row of the Table control.
                                   Field List
First Line -                   A,B,C
Second Line -              A,B
Third Line     -             A
Is it possible in ABAP to achieve this . I should not use an input help. Can i achieve this with Drop down list ?
Regards,
Krishna Chaitanya . A

Hi Priyaranjan,
Assoon as you enter records and save it it gets saved , that is ok , but when you do scroll system goes to PAI , so you need to chk the value of ok_code when scroll button is pressed and write the code according to that .
more over you need to increase the number of lines that can be displayed in a particular table control .
Try this it may help you .

Hi,
Try this:
On your customizing screen,
PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
    Field T_ZT-SDATE
      module create_dateselect.
In your main program:
module create_dateselect.
data:p_date like sy-datum.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4_DATE'
   EXPORTING
     holiday_calendar_id = 'CN'
     display = ' '
   IMPORTING
     select_date = p_date
   EXCEPTIONS
     OTHERS = 4.
t_zt-sdate = p_date.
endmodule.

Highlight dropdown by index in table control in FPM error

Hello,
I have a situation where I would like to point out to a user that they have to maintain a value in a dropdown field in a table control. I am trapping the error situation in the Process_Event method of the FPM in my component,
I would like to raise an FPM error to highlight this to the user. If I do this with a normal input field I can just pass the element and attribute that I want highlighting to the FPM error handler
eg:
wd_this->ao_fpm->mo_message_manager->report_bapiret2_message(
                            is_bapiret2 = ls_message-message_details
                            io_component = lo_component
                            io_element = ls_message-element
                            iv_attribute_name = ls_message-attribute_name ).
and the field is highlighted and linked to the error.
However, if the field is of a type dropdown by index, I can't seem to get it to highlight. I have tried passing the element that the dropdown text is bound to and the attribute/name of the text field, but this does not work. I even tried passing the child node name as the attribute, and the element as the parent element of the node holding the dropdown list - but unsuprisingly this doesn't work either.
Is there anyway to highlight/link a dropdown by index field to an FPM error message - or is this functionality currently unsupported? Or perhaps I am making a simple mistake somewhere?
Thanks for any suggestions!
Cheers,
Chris

Is this a LC form? Because Acrobat forms have no concept of tables, just
individual fields...
