Embed characters in multiple fields

I'm trying to find an easy way to embed characters into
dynamic text fields, rather than manually doing it to over 100
fields.
I've googled a bit, with no luck.
any ideas on something that might help?
Thanks.

you could add a new property to the textfield class and have
it embed your font. you would then need to loop through your
textfield instance names and assign them that new property.

[Forum FAQ] How to use multiple field terminators in BULK INSERT or BCP command line

Introduction
Some people want to know if we can have multiple field terminators in BULK INSERT or BCP commands, and how to implement multiple field terminators in BULK INSERT or BCP commands.
Solution
For character data fields, optional terminating characters allow you to mark the end of each field in a data file with a field terminator, as well as the end of each row with a row terminator. If a terminator character occurs within the data, it is interpreted
as a terminator, not as data, and the data after that character is interpreted and belongs to the next field or record. I have done a test, if you use BULK INSERT or BCP commands and set the multiple field terminators, you can refer to the following command.
In Windows command line,
bcp <Databasename.schema.tablename> out “<path>” –c –t –r –T
For example, you can export data from the Department table with bcp command and use the comma and colon (,:) as one field terminator.
bcp AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Department out C:\myDepartment.txt -c -t ,: -r \n –T
The txt file as follows:
However, if you want to bcp by using multiple field terminators the same as the following command, which will still use the last terminator defined by default.
bcp AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Department in C:\myDepartment.txt -c -t , -r \n -t: –T
The txt file as follows:
When multiple field terminators means multiple fields, you use the below comma separated format,
column1,,column2,,,column3
In this occasion, you only separate 3 fields (column1, column2 and column3). In fact, after testing, there will be 6 fields here. That is the significance of a field terminator (comma in this case).
Meanwhile, using BULK INSERT to import the data of the data file into the SQL table, if you specify terminator for BULK import, you can only set multiple characters as one terminator in the BULK INSERT statement.
USE <testdatabase>;
GO
BULK INSERT <your table> FROM ‘<Path>’
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE = ' char/native/ widechar /widenative',
FIELDTERMINATOR = ' field_terminator',
For example, using BULK INSERT to import the data of C:\myDepartment.txt data file into the DepartmentTest table, the field terminator (,:) must be declared in the statement.
In SQL Server Management Studio Query Editor:
BULK INSERT AdventureWorks.HumanResources.DepartmentTest FROM ‘C:\myDepartment.txt’
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE = ‘char',
FIELDTERMINATOR = ‘,:’,
The new table contains like as follows:
We could not declare multiple field terminators (, and :) in the Query statement, as the following format, a duplicate error will occur.
In SQL Server Management Studio Query Editor:
BULK INSERT AdventureWorks.HumanResources.DepartmentTest FROM ‘C:\myDepartment.txt’
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE = ‘char',
FIELDTERMINATOR = ‘,’,
FIELDTERMINATOR = ‘:’
However, if you want to use a data file with fewer or more fields, we can implement via setting extra field length to 0 for fewer fields or omitting or skipping more fields during the bulk copy procedure.

Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?
For example, can we call exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='b64ce7ec-d598-45cd-bbc2-ea202e0c129d'
in a supported way?

Multiple field terminators in BULK INSERT or BCP

Can i have multiple field terminators in BULK INSERT or BCP commands i,e, define more than 1 for a file?
Pls provide example.

Hi stellios,
For character data fields, optional terminating characters allow you to mark the end of each field in a data file with a field terminator and the end of each row with a row terminator. If a terminator character occurs within the data, it is interpreted as
a terminator, not as data, and the data after that character is interpreted as belonging to the next field or record. I do a test, if you use BULK INSERT or BCP commands and set the multiple field terminators, you can refer to the following command.
In Windows command line:
bcp AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Department in C:\myDepartment.txt -c -t ,: -r \n –T
---you can use the two characters as one terminators, it can do well
--if you want to bcp by using multiple field terminators just like the following command, it will still use the last terminator defined by default.
bcp AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Department in C:\myDepartment.txt -c -t , -r \n -t: –T
If you specify terminator for BULK import. You can only set one terminator in the BULK INSERT statement.
USE <testdatabase>;
GO
BULK INSERT <your table> FROM ‘<Path>’
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
GO

How do you get a line with MULTIPLE fields to WRAP ?

How do you get a line with MULTIPLE fields to WRAP ?
Good afternoon everyone...
THE PROBLEM: Why doesn’t a line with multiple fields WRAP?
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE/WHAT I”D LIKE TO SEE
If I have 2 fields on a line (this is now a hypothetical example and nothing to do with my actual report)….let’s call them field A and field B. And if field A has values of all ‘X’ and field B has values of all ‘Y’…then….the normal case would be (ignore dots – only for spacing):
A……………………… B
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
But what if A is too long? I would want to see B wrap onto the next line like this:
A……………………………………………………B
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYY
YYYYYYYYYYYYY
And similarly….if B is extra long, can the line print as:
A………………………. B
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I don’t want the case where B is long and I get:
A………………… …B…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
………………………..YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I can see how you can wrap an individual field like that…but how can you WRAP a line of[b] fields within the frame so it wraps to the BEGINNING of the frame on next line?
My SPECIFIC CASE
I have a report that I have stripped down to a simple structure for the purposes of this explanation.
My DATA MODEL has the main QUERY (for plant family and species data). The columns of the query are divided into 2 groups. The 1st GROUP contains the family data. Below that is the rest of the species data in a 2nd GROUP.
Linking from the 2nd species group (above) is a new QUERY to extract REGION data based on the common key field. Under this 2nd query is another group with all the REGION columns.
The LAYOUT MODEL has a group frame (the main , base one)
On top of this is a repeating frame based on the 1st group (family data).
On top of this is another repeating frame for the 2nd group (species data).
On top of this is 2 Frames on the same line line. The 1st frame contains columns from the species group .
The 2nd frame on this line is a repeating frame. The PRINT DIRECTION for this frame is ACROSS/DOWN. It repeats details of the REGION where the species is found. These columns come from this group come from the REGION QUERY and GROUP.
All fields on the report line have variable horizontal elasticity.
The problem is that when there is too much data on the line, it does NOT WRAP to the 2nd line.. It TRUNCATES.
Can the line be made to WRAP????..
In my current report, 1 of 2 things is happening:
1) All fields print on the line until it hits the page boundary and then it just stops. Truncated!
2) All fields print on the current line, then Oracle Reports throws a new page to print the REMAINDER of the long, input line
But I would like a LONG line to continue printing onto the following line of the same page.
I have tried all combinations of the elasticity fields and the ‘ADVANCED LAYOUT’ properties.
I have been focussing my attention with this problem on the frames .
We are using REPORT BUILDER V 6.0.8.26.0
Thankyou to anyone who may offer assistance.
Tony Calabrese.

Steve,
you gain 1 thing, but you lose something else!
This thing is SO frustrating!
Hey Steve! Good afternoon.
I've done as you suggested....I have a long text boilerplate item - the only 1 on the line...and it has all the column in it.
So it looks like:
&col1 &col2 &col3 &col4 &col5 etc etc etc
And the line expands nicely to each field's requirements.
And when it gets to the right page boundary...it WRAPS to the next line! Beautiful!!!
The only thing is that...when I had individual fields across the line I was able to create format triggers for those fields. And in doing so I was able to reduce the font and change the justification. I had to do that because some of the fields had to appear superscripted.
So I wanted something like (ignore the dots):
...................................ppppp
AAAA BBBB CCCCC DDDD EEEE FFFFFF
So the field of 'ppppp' appeared slightly higher on the line than the other fields...
I can't see how I can do this with a single TEXT field containing all the &COL values.
Have you ever come across anything like this?
Thankyou again,
Tony Calabrese 12/4/2007

How do I move multiple fields from the end of the document to another section?

For some reason when I click Cntrl+V, it pastes the multiple fields at the end of my form rather than at the point of paste within the document.

Select all of the fields that you wish to copy then use Ctrl-C. Scroll to the part of the form where you want to paste the copied fields. Select the field that you want the paste to occur after (ie, the pasted fields will appear after/below the selected field) and use Ctrl-V.

Bind multiple fields to one node in data view

I have a need to have an interactive form where data from a single data source is displayed in multiple fields on the form. In addition these fields are open for input. I have bound the multiple fields on the form to one node in the data view. The data is being displayed in the multiple fields. This form is being routed thru workflow so various agents are updating the form. The problem that I am having is that the form only seems to allow input in the first field on the form but not the other fields that are tied to the same data source. For example, field A and field B are bound to node SUMMARY. I can add/change/delete data in field A but not in field B. After I have done some entry in field A, I can then sometimes make changes in field B. We have a requirement that field A be enabled for agent #1 but field B is invisible. Later in the workflow, agent #2 needs to make final changes on a "summary" page so agent #2 had field B enabled.
Does anyone have any idea how to correct this data entry issue so that data can be entered into either field that is tied to a single node?

Having multiple fields in the backend is not an option. I will not go into the business reason in detail but the last page of the form contains a final version of data pulled from various locations on the form where the data on the other pages was input by multiple agents in the process flow. The last agent in the workflow needs to put the "finishing touches" to the data and should not have to search all over in the form to find the appropriate data fields.
I have found 2 possible solutions and would like to know if anyone can recommend one over the other.
First solution - bind multiple fields on the form to one node in the data view. This seems to work correctly on the form and data can be entered into either field, with the data being passed back to the webdynpro context in the one node in the data view (corresponding node in WD context).
Second solution - the node/attribue in the WD context must have the same name as a DDIC element. The node in the data view must have this same name. The field names on the form must also have the same name. Define the binding for the field names as Global. I have not validated that the data is passed back to the WD.

How can I create a search plugin for multiple fields

There are a number of sites that have search capabilities but they require entries into multiple fields.
One such site is for instance the IBM Employee directory.
(http://www.ibm.com/contact/employees/servlets/lookup)
On this site - in order to get usable results - I have to enter both First name and Last name of the employee I'm looking for.
I created a search plugin for the site, however I wasn't able to split the entered text into two parts and provide them as separate fields for the form.
Is there a way to do this?
Regards,
Imre

Hi,
This is excellent. Not search-plugin though but but this is as good as a search-plugin. (Even better, as I haven't seen any solution with the plugins for the problem.)
I didn't know that it was possible to use javascript as bookmark location.
Thanks,

I have a PDF form that I want to pre-fill multiple fields with example text that disappears onFocus. Is there a way to do this?

Pretty much what my subject line says. My client wants example text in the fields of a PDF form that will disappear when the cursor enters the field. When I try this with show/hide layers, the layer becomes visible as soon as I enter form editing mode, and the action doesn't work properly. Any help? I was able to get it to work with a single field, but multiple fields with example text on multiple layers doesn't work for some reason.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Jeffrey ,
You need to use a custom Format script for the field.

But i have one query on that on,Every field having "line Break" required.
Can you please help me out above this requirement.
Thanks in Advance,

If you want a line break between the three fields, then try
passing a,b,c to the udf and in the udf you would have
return a+"\n"+b+"\n"+c;

Is it possible to sort by multiple fields?

Is it possible to sort the music library by multiple fields in a prioritised order? For example, I would like to sort by the following columns, in the following order:
Album Artist
Album
Track Number
for some reason I can't seem to do this, sorting by Album artist alone is not working for me, as some CD's I've imported have featured artists and this breaksup the listing order.
Thanks

Thanks Thomas
Unfortunately, this solution did not work for me, cover flow still shows multiple instances of the same artwork for various groups of tracks from the same album.
The thing I don't understand is why sorting by the "sort album artist" field does not group all the tracks from an album together.
My specific example (I still can't get a screenshot posted):
I have two Gwen Stefani albums, both ripped from CD (not imported from the itunes store). both albums have a majority of track where Gwen is the only artist and two or three track with featured artists. I have filled the "album artist" and "sort album artist" tags to all read Gwen Stefani, however, if I sort by either of these columns (in cover flow mode), what I get is this:
all the tracks from one ablum where Gwen Stefani is the artist
then all the tracks from the other album where Gwen Stefani is the artist
then (in alphabetical order by featured artist) the remaining tracks from both albums - ie, the albums are mixed up
for each group of track I see an cover flow art work.
I should say that I have turned off the compilation tag on all of my albums because this ends up saving the file in a compilation folder, not in the artist folder on my hard drive - but it doesn't make a difference either way to the way I see the files sorted in itunes.
It's really frustrating!

Multiple values for multiple fields sharing common id

I'm new to Reporting Services and I need to create report based on a common child id that includes multiple values from multiple fields in several tables. I can combine all the values into one query for a list report; however, this causes the rows to duplicate
multiple times based on the differing fields having multiple values (i.e. report contains various child ids and multiple medication dates/names, multiple health diagnoses with onset dates, multiple health service dates/values, multiple immunization types and
service dates, etc). If I create a list report and try to use various tables, I run into problems with how the tables view the data due to the duplicating child id rows from multiple field values on that child id. If I hide duplicates for these different tables,
I can run into spacing issues from the duplicating rows and/or hiding data that shouldn't be hid.
I need the report to have the basic non-duplicating child info (id, name, basic health info) and then also have various sections that contain fields with numerous values (i.e. section for health issue name and onset dates, section for medication name and
prescription dates, section for health service name and service date, etc). I would want a page break after each child id and would want all the child ids to be viewed/exported for printing purposes at the same time (i.e. not choosing one child id at
a time to print or view the data). I have tried to create one main table on a list report with various subreports on the child id; however, this is hard for my machine to process (it takes forever) and I can only view/export one child id at a time when I use
child id as the report parameter.
Any help you can give this newbie would be greatly appreciate.
Thanks,
Melissa S.
What's the best way for me to
MelissaS

Hi simpson213,
According to your description, you have some questions about your report design.
1. How to have non-duplicating child info?
In this scenario, since you don't want to hide the duplicate data, we suggest you filter the duplicated records on query level by using Distinct statement. If you want to do it on report level, you can group
records on chid id and use First() function on other fields.
Reference: First Function (Report Builder and SSRS)
2. How to have various sections that contain fields with numerous values?
We can also add these fileds into the child group of child and have them toggled by child id.
Reference: Add an Expand/Collapse Action to an Item (Report Builder and SSRS)
3. How to add a page break between each child?
Right click on the Row Group(child id)->Page Break->Select between each group instance.
Reference: Add a Page Break (Report Builder and SSRS)
4. How to select multiple child id when rendering report?
When creating parameter, select Allow multiple values in General.
Reference: Add, Change, or Delete a Report Parameter (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Update Rule routine to get last 4 characters of a field

I am aware I can do this using a formula. However, can someone assist in writing the routine which gets the last four characters of a field. The field is part of the COMM_STRUCTURE? Thanks

Hi,
For determining the length of the field, you have to use first the statement DESCRIBE so you get the figure into a variable (I do not have a SAP system right now, so errors can occur in the following):
data length type i.
describe comm_structure-field length into length.
length = length - 4.
result = comm_structure-field+(length)(4).
However, please shift your field is RIGHT JUSTIFIED earlier than using these statements. Please consider the instruction SHIFT. That will insure you that you get the right characters.
Regards
