Dynamically changing the select list in an LOV based on the login user

We have a field in a form which is a combobox.The form is to be linked to different profiles of users.Based on the logged in user we would like to restrict the select list in the LOV.ie user1 should see a LOV which is different from that seen by user2.Is this possible.If so how can this be done?Kindly reply.
Thanks & Regds,
Jayanthi

Thanks for ur reply.But my problem is that i have a table having details of some products which includes spareparts also(Name,id,price etc).In my form i have the combobox field which should have a list of these products which the user can select.Now depending on the user's profile he should see only his related products(One profile of users should view only the products but not the spares while the other should view only spares.)The details of both the products and spares are in the same table.we have a criteria to differentiate between the products and the spares.The LOV should display at run time, either products or spares depending on his profile as he logs in. Hope u understood my problem.

Hello Jayanthi,
I had a similar situation in my last project.
While you can solve this by modifying your query, this will always come around as may be later some other criteria to restrict based on User/His Role/Something else. Hence I fixed it at design level itself. Though I can't give my situation I can tell you the solution applying my logic.
Altering your Product Table and adding one more database Column say Product_Category and updating the table with Product Category =1 for Products and 2 for Spares. You can extend this further for other types.
Create a new Table say User_Groups that will have
Group_id
Group_Name
User_Id columns and will contain all the User ids inserted groupwise.
Create one last Table Group_Product_Map
That will have
Group_id
Category_id
This will store each Group_Id followed by Category_id of Products to which these group members will have access to.
Now write a database function getCategory( p_User) which will query User_Groups table to get Group_Id
and further query Group_Product_Map Table based on group_id to get Category_Id.
This function will return category_id.
Huh!
So your LOV will have a query as select *(or whatever) from Product where category_id = getCategory(portal30.wwctx_api.get_user)
Hope this helps

Dynamic changing the LOV

Hi
we are facing some problem in Dynamic Changing the LOV.
Lets assume the below scenario.
I have tables like location and department table.
In location table i have values like country name and location. For one country there will be multiple locations.
First i need to show the unique country names in LOV. based on the country selection i need to show locations.
all we need to achieve in same page meaning i have two lovs in one page. first one is country and second one is locations.
pls. help us to resolve this issue.

Why wouldn't you put two items (visible=no) on page; first of them with "select distinct..." of country on record group for LOV1 and the second with LOV2 with locations, depending of values in item1 where you took value from LOV1?

Chart based on Select list with submit Lov problem

Hi,
I have one page with interactive report showing username with links, date and
database actions.
Another page contains one region having flash chart based on select list with submit Lov.
The lov is created by dynamic query.
Every time when i click the 1st page report link, the 2nd page lov is populating the value automatically. But the problem is chart displays NO DATA FOUND message though the LOV has many values.
I don't want to display any null values so set to NO for LOV
I tried to write Before header computation (PL/SQL Function Body) to set the lov value, but the query is displayed as such.
I don't want to assign any static default value also as the values are dynamic for every link.
The following is my Before header computation of Select list with submit (Item name is p11_schema). (PLSQL Function Body)
begin
if :p11_schema is null then
return 'select distinct owner schema1, owner schema2 from auditing
where access_date=' || :p11_access_date
|| ' and username=' || :p11_username
|| ' order by owner';
end if;
end;
This is my chart query.
select null link, obj_name label, sum(sel_count) "Select", sum(ins_count) "Insert", sum(upd_count) "Update", sum(del_count) "Delete" from auditing
where username=:p11_username
and access_date=:p11_access_date
and owner=NVL(:p11_schema, OWNER)
group by owner, obj_name
Example: If there more than one records in the lov, the graph should display the 1st record. When i select another record, the chart accordingly display the selected values. But inially it should not display "NO DATA FOUND" message.
I tried using all the combinations of computation type for the lov, SQL query ( I could not use if conditon then), PLSQL expression, PLSQL function body. But it does not work out.
Can anyone please help me out.
Thanks.

Hi Scott,
Thanks for your reply.
I found out the solution for this problem as below.
But i did it in different way to tackle the dynamic query wich returns more than one record using rownum always the 1st record when it is empty instead of assigning constant (static) value like '1'. And i am returning LOV itself for both null or not null condition as below.
Declare
q varchar2(4000);
begin
if :p11_schema is null then
q:='select distinct owner schema from auditing';
q:=q || ' where username=:p11_username ';
q:=q || ' and access_date=:p11_access_date ';
q:=q || ' and rownum<2 order by owner';
Execute immediate q into :p11_schema USING :p11_username, :p11_access_date;
end if;
return :P11_SCHEMA;
end;
Thanks.

Dynamically change the contents of one combo box based on the other

Hi Forum,
I have a question which might have a possibly simple answer. Well anyway help me out since i could not find the simple answer.
I am building an application using Swing and binding with BC4J using JClient. My GUI has combo boxes, grids, editboxes. My requirement is that i should be able to dynamically change the contents of one combo box based on the selected item in trhe previous combo box. For example, when i choose a country in the "country combo box", the "states combo box" should show the list of the states of the selected country.
Now how do i do this using binding. If not, how do i write custom querirs in BC4J layer and return a resultset to the remote application so theat i can populate the dependent combo boxes.
I will appreciate if anyone can help me out in this regard.
Thank You
Sumit

there could be quite a few number of ways of solving this problem.
One way is through event handlers.
taking your example as a model when user selects a country you could fire an action with a flag set to ture. A method will return the states from the DB or your temporary files or what ever and then the true flag will be used in the states combo box rendering.
other way: javascript
this might be a bit clumsy as you will need the states information in a property file and you can get the info as the user selects a country.

Problems with customizing select lists and popup LOVs

Hi
I have 2 problems about select lists and popup LOVs.
The first one is about a select list in a tabular form.
It should be created with APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST_FROM_LOV or similar and take its values from a named LOV.
This worked fine but now it should also have the possibility to enter a free value.
I tried to accomplish that by creating a APEX_ITEM.POPUP_FROM_LOV, but there is a problem with the function that is called by the arrow icon right to the input field (for eg. genList_f11_5()).
If the row is added by addRow, then it works fine, but if the row is is not empty
then the function call is like genList_f11_$_row() and the input field gets no value, when a LOV option is selected.
The other problem is about a select list which should have the possibility to enter a custom value and
also there should be the possibility to select several values. I tried to implement this by a text area containing the selected values and a multiple select list, with an event handler in each option. The user could click options and they would be copied to the text area. The problem is that I couldn't make the event handler work in IE.
I would appreciate any ideas about either of these problems.

Hi,
If you download application you can see source.
I have not write any instructions, sorry.
If you are on Apex 4 you can just load jQuery UI autocomplete library and take ideas from my app.
If you download my sample in zip there is uncompressed htmldbQuery library.
You can see that and take only function htmldbAutocomplete.
Then check jQuery UI document
http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/#method-search
There is method search that you can use open list just by click of input.
I hope this helps at start.

Dynamically change table selecting from

in 3.2 on 11g database is there a way to dynamically change the table used in a select statement for an interactive report? I have a series of similar tables, one for each month of the year. I want to click a month on one page and bring up a report from the table for that month. I want to use one page for this report and have all links from previous page link to the same page, just different result based on what month was clicked.
I know I could just setup 12 different reports and conditionally display each region based on a value passed to the that page, but I'd prefer to only create one page & one report on that page.
Thanks for any ideas or solutions.

Your function will have the code dynamically built.. What you do is you build your sql and pass in the table name and any other items that will change based upon your requirements..
here is an example...
function inventory_report (p_State IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
declare
q varchar2(4000);
begin
q:='   select p.category, ';
q:=q||'       p.product_name, ';
q:=q||'       p.quantity, ';
q:=q||'       p.unit_price ';
-- Here is where we substitute the passed in state name for the data table we extract data from
q:=q||' from ' || V('p_State') || ' p, ';
q:=q||' where p.product_quantity > 0 ';
return q;
end;Thank you,

How to dynamically change the text of a TextObject with embedded DataField?

Hi
I'm trying to dynamically change the text of a TextObject at runtime, by using the .NET library. My problem is that if one or more DatabaseFieldDefinition is embedded inside my text, I'm unable to change the "static text" only, by keeping the field, e.g. I have :
Text1 => "Contact Name: {Contact.Name}"
and I'd like to change it to anything else like:
Text1 => "Nom du Contact: {Contact.Name}"
Half of my TextObject is static text while second part comes from the dataset.
(of course the translation is dynamic - it is called at run-time and the new value to be set depends on the calling application language)
If I simply modify the Text property of my TextObject, the {Contact.Name} embedded field is not evaluated anymore by the Crystal Engine, but considered as a single text.
Using formulas or parameters looks quite difficult, because it means having many ones just for translation needs - I cannot control the way my users will create their reports and "force them" to use complex methods just in order to put a text and a value together...
Anyone knows how to deal with that ?

Only way I can think of doing this:
1) Create a formula (call it lang) and enter the string "Contact Name" in it
2) Place the {Contact.Name} field next to the string
3) So now you have:
ContactName: {Contact.Name}
4) Check what localization you are after. If you need "Nom du Contact", change the lang formula so it shows "Nom du Contact" using the code below:
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Dim Report As New CrystalReport1()
Dim FormulaFields As FormulaFieldDefinitions
Dim FormulaField As FormulaFieldDefinition
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
FormulaFields = Report.DataDefinition.FormulaFields
FormulaField = FormulaFields.Item(0)
FormulaField.Text = "[formula text]"
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Report
End Sub
I realize this may not give you consistent spacing as the translations may have strings of differnt length. Perhaps someone has other idea(s)...

Dynamically change the Binding of a view object

I want to reuse a panel several times in my application. The VO has one bind parameter (:1). The same panel should be reused several times with different bind variables.
I found a technical note concerning this issue called: How to Dynamically Change the binding of a View Object to a JClient Panel. This works for JDeveloper 9i but not for JDeveloper 19g. Does anybody know how to dynamically change the binding in JDeveloper 10g

You may use bindRowSetIterator() and pass in a custom fetched ViewObject or a RowSetIterator to the iterator binding that is displayed in your panel.

Dynamically change the Priority Group of Logical Table Sources in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have 2 Logical Table Sources(LTS 1 and LTS 2 for a Logical Table in BMM Layer).
Example: Logical Table : Sample
LTS Source 1 : Sample 1(Priority Group Set to 1)
LTS Source 2 : Sample 2(Priority Group Set to 0)
I have set the Priority Group of Sample 1 LTS Source to 1 and Priority Group of Sample 2 LTS Source to 0.
I need to dynamically change the Priority Group of Sample 1 LTS Source to 0 if my role is DEVELOPER where role is a column in database.
If my role is not equal to DEVELOPER then the Priority Group of Sample 1 LTS Source will remain same(1).
Please suggest how can i achieve this.
Thanks,
Soukath Ali

hello Soukath Ali,
didi you find a way to dinamically changing Priority Group?

Dynamically changing the name of the .dll file to load in call Library

Our current model is to use dll files as "plug-in" modules for instruments and a top layer test step calls the appropriate driver dll.
For instance
the TestStep is called with the kenmore.dll passed as a parameter so the kenmore.dll file is loaded, the functions are registered and the functions are called. Next the TestStep is called with whirlpool.dll as a parameter now the whirlpool.dll is loaded the functions are registered and the functions are called. This works very well in our current CVI/LabWindows environment. Now we plan to work with LabView, we wish to retain this model (as DLL files, there are advantages in our model for us). We have not found a way to load these dll files from LabView without hard coding the path and filenames in.
Any suggestions on how to dynamically change the path in the Call Library module, or another suggested method of loading the dll via LabView?
Thanks,

As Ben has pointed out LabVIEW
scripting may be a possibility but you are going with that in highly
unsupported area. Also I happen to know that changing the library name
of a Call Library Node through scripting has produced unsupported
feature errors previous to LabVIEW 7.1 eventhough the method was there.
And LabVIEW 8 hides the whole scripting business behind the license
manager.
Another approach at least if the different DLLs do not change to often
thier functions and parameters would be to create a wrapper DLL. Have
it a method that loads the desired DLL and links its functions to
internal function pointers. Then when calling the actual function entry
points just redirect directly to the correct fucntion through that
function pointer. Since you are already working in CVI creating such a
DLL should be only a matter of taking out a little bit of your already
existing code and put it into a DLL project.

Dynamically changing the color of nodes in a JTree

I have created a JTree and want to dynamically change the color of some of the TreeNodes as my program runs. The JTree is displayed in a JPanel. There is an algorithm built into which identifies the nodes whose color I need to change. No user actions is performed (everythign is internal to the program).
It seems that in the TreeCellRender only kicks in when the tree is first displayed. How do I get it to re-render the tree when the TreeModel changes? It seems that the Listeners are only looking for external user interactions.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I think I was a bit too vague in my question. Let me try again...
I have changed an attribute in a node in a JTree. This attribute is changed after the tree was initially rendered, but while the program is still running. I want to tell the TreeCellRenderer to look again at this node since that attribute that was changed will effect how the node should be renderered. I tried using the nodeChanged() method, but it did not work (the colot of the node did not change). Any advise how I can do this?
Thanks!

OBIEE 10g AGO Function Dynamically Change the Heading

I created columns in my rpd named Sales Previous Month, Sales 2 months ago and Sales 3 months ago using the AGO Function. This is working fine.
My problem is when displaying these headings the users would like to see the Month Name instead of the Headings I created. For example if looking at a report for January the users would like to see:
Sales Previous Month = December
Sales 2 Months ago = November
Sales 3 Months ago = October
Is there any way to dynamically change the value of the column header to show the name of the month?

Hi SriniVEERAVALLI,
Thanks for the reply. I have found that I might haven't created the relationship between dimension and fact tables correctly.
I initially created the foreign key relationship (instead of creating complex join) in physical diagram between the dimension and fact table. And the relationship type is hence greyed out.
I have deleted the foreign key relationship in physical diagram. Then
1. In physical diagram, create complex join between dimension and fact . The relationship is 'inner' and can't be changed.
2. In Logical table diagram, create foreign key between dimension and fact . The relationship can be changed (inner, outer, etc).
Is this the correct way?
I tried these on two newly created dummy tables and it worked.

Try using the In Proc RAS SDK.
[Here are the sample applications.|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/samples?rid=/webcontent/uuid/b02c1cac-ad86-2b10-88ae-cb36551bab06] Take a look at the 'Add Image' sample.
Insert the picture at design or runtime and change the location / name of the image at runtime.
