Forcing a user to only select from Parameter LOV list

Hi,
I suspect that the answer is no but I'd appreciate clarification on the matter. I am wondering if there is any way to prevent a user entering a value into a parameter field - I want them to only select from the parameter's drop down LOV list. This will apply to Discoverer Viewer but would like to know if it could be done for Plus ( or not ) as well,
Kevin.

Hi Kevin
Try changing the item class property called Require user to always search for values.
According to my notes: This is unchecked by default. If you check this, Discoverer will launch the Search dialog box whenever a user clicks on the list of values. Should you have a large list of values, you may want to consider turning on this optionto making the LOV box pop up automatically.
I am not convinced this will make the pop-up come up but it's worth a try.
I'd be interested in hearing how you get on.
Best wishes
Michael

  • ITunes shared user vanishes when selected from left hand list

    When I bring up iTunes and I get the other computers on the network and I select the "Music Server" we have (eMac G4) it just goes away. If I try from the server side to select my MBP it works just fine. All sharing is the same on all 3 of our macs. I have wireless thru airport "n" on 2 of the bases. What I don't understand is why it works server to laptop/iMac but not the other way around? Am I facing a conflict with the two bases? The main box is the newest model the other is the first giga bit model (053). I did have the eMac on hanging off the newest Airport Extreme and it worked fine. When I add the other older Extreme and hung the eMac off (the same as first iteration) I started this problem...I'm really confused?!?!?!?!?! ANY HELP?????

    Restart of the eMac cleared it up. Was having problems with the two Airport Extremes working correctly. That was an amperage problem with my circuit protector - a whole nother story!

  • Forcing a user to only input numbers

    Hey guys! I am writing the code for a game of NIM as an assignment. However, i am having trouble in forcing the user to only input certain things, in this case they are only allowed to enter a number that is less than the total ammount of stones in the pile, but greater than 0 (i.e 1 or more). Now this works fine, and if they enter a letter the NumberFormatException catch handles it fine, but what i am having trouble with is when they enter nothing. They just hit return without actually entering a number. This causes they game to accept that as their turn and go to the next players turn. How would i go about forcing the user to input something. Also if you can give me any clues as to how to make this wny more efficent, it would be very much appreciated! Thank you for your time!

  • Forcefully delete user's "Deleted Items" from Exchange 2010 Management shell ?

    After migration from Exchange 2003 to 2010 my organization's some user can't delete items from their deleted items folder, it generate a error message so how can I forcefully delete user's deleted items from their "Deleted Items folder" from
    Exchange 2010 Management shell ? Thanks
    Babu

    Hi Babu ,
    Based on my knowledge i have given some suggestions please have a look in to it.
    1.We cannot use the search-mailbox command specifically for any folder in the mailbox.But we can use it for a whole mailbox.Below is the command which will copy the entire contents of the mailbox to the target folder called as "backup" .
    Search-Mailbox -Identity "problematic mailbox name" -TargetMailbox "test mailbox" -TargetFolder "backup" -LogLevel Full -deletecontent
    Note : Before executing the above command , please execute the below.
    New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Name "Import Export_Enterprise Support" -SecurityGroup "Enterprise Support" -Role "Mailbox Import Export"
    Once the above command is executed then you need to add your admin account to the security group "Enterprise Support" and then use the Search-Mailbox command to copy the entire items to the target mailbox and also it will delete all the copied
    items from the original mailbox.
    2.Another one option is to use the MFCMAPI tool to force delete the items on the deleted items folder.
    Most importantly before doing all the above , please share me the error message what your users are facing while deleting the items from deleted items folder.
    Thanks & Regards S.Nithyanandham

  • I am being forced to create 3 security question from your dropdown list and I can choose the questions but can't enter anything in the answer field??

    I am being forced to create 3 security question from your dropdown list and I can choose the questions but can't enter anything in the answer field??

    The problem is twenty three people leaving or twenty three thousand leaving has zero impact on a carrier with over 100 million customers. And they have the lowest churn rate. So if 10,000 or 20,000 or more churn out it means little to the carrier.
    If you have a real lawyer he/she will advise you that you have no case. The device was not lost or stolen by the carrier, you were not eligible for a new device, and like any business who employs large numbers of poorly trained personnel who make low wages what was told to you is not in writing. So a verbal exchange does not hold up.
    In fact in Verizon's customer agreement it has such a disclaimer against any verbal exchanges so if you have that agreement in writing, go get them.
    The posting on public forums and places like Face Book, Linkin, Google+ or a personal web site can open you up to a lawsuit for Dilution of Trade Name, and other offences. However if you have proof then go for it.
    Unfortunately that is how big business works today. A pity

  • Displaying user selection from drop down list in static text on master page

    Hello,
    I am using LC 7.0 at workk and I have hit a road block.
    I have a drop down list at the top of the form. Once the user makes a selection, I want to take that value and paste it in static text located on the master page. I can't seem to get it to work.
    Please help!!!

    Hi,
    Place the Drop Down list on form
    Place text object(s) on master page
    here is the script to display the value and/or text of drop down
    Script will be on Drop Down list events
    Calculate event to display value of DD - FormCalc
    form1.pageSet.Page1.StaticText1.rawValue = this.rawValue;
    Change event to display Text of DD - JavaScript
    form1.pageSet.Page1.StaticText2.rawValue = xfa.event.newText;
    SAVE the form as dynamic pdf.
    Hope this will help.
    Thanks,

  • How can I select from drop-down list and jumping to selected subform?

    I using LC Designer ES2 vers 9. Developing XDP. How can I Select from a drop-down list the appropriate selected subform (jumping to the selected subform on the page)?
    drop-down list...A (jump to subform1)
                             B (jump to subform2)
                             C (jump to subform3)
    subform1
    subform2
    subform3
    ....end of form

    Hi,
    you cannot set focus on a subform but on a field, as only interactive objects can be focussed.
    From a dropdowns exit event the script will look this way:
    switch (this.rawValue) {
              case "A" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
              case "B" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;

  • Windows Phone 8.1 xaml, c# ComboBox does not display selection when first item is selected from full page list.

    I have 3 comboboxes on a xaml page and most of the time when I select the first item on the full page list displayed when the number of items are > 5, the screen returns to the combobox and the box is blank. The combobox.SelectedItem is valued but it
    does not display.  This does not happen every time and I have seen this using the emulator and my windows 8.1 phone.  If I select any other item in the list they always display but when I go back and select the first item the box is blank. 
    Does anyone know what I could be doing that is causing this?

    Thanks for your help.  When I run the code below and the page is displayed, I select an item from the page list and it displays fine and then I select the first item from the page list and I do not see that selected item in the box. 
    If I remove the SelectedIndex=0 it all works fine except I do not have an item selected for the initial display.  Below should show problem and should work copy/paste in universal blank app.

  • Writing select from multiple tables, listed in another table

    Hi there.
    I need to write a select which is a little complex for me. Here is conditions,
    All tables have the same column names, but i want to use staff_no.
    All table names written in MASTER_TB table (15 table name).
    is there a shortcut to write a sql like i am joining them?
    (NO select * from staff t1, emp t2 ,company t3 .....etc....)
    THANKS

    you will have to write each tables just the same as writing a simple query. this is the part where you will have to write each tables in your FROM clause and any other column in the SELECT statement plus those condition expressions in your WHERE clause as to what you might be needing to arrive in the results that you needed.

  • How to create a smart folder that only selects from a specific directory?

    I am trying to create a smart folder that lists all my iPhoto original content in the last few months. I want this so that my wife can connect into the smart folder over the LAN when copying specific photos to her PC.
    I am have trouble working out how to restrict the search to only those files that exists in the iPhoto directory. When I look at info for a photo is states "Where: /Users/Shared/iPhoto Library/iPhoto Library/Data/2009/....etc etc".
    However if I add an filter for "Where from" begins with "/Users/Shared/... etc etc" it returns nothing. Is there a way to do this?

    Find the iPhoto library file.
    Right click -> Show package contents.
    Double click the Originals folder.
    Type anything in the Search box at the top of the Finder window.
    In the top of the Finder window, click "Originals".
    Click the + (plus) sign next to Save.
    Select Kind is Image.
    Click the + (plus) sign again.
    Select *Created date* is *within last 3 months* (or whatever you want).
    Go to the search box and delete what you typed. Don't hit the X to delete the search text.
    Now save the smart search.
    This is saved in ~\Library\Saved searches. Copy or move it to the desktop where your wife can get access to it.

  • When I select from the LOV, it is not storing in the database

    Have a field (Manager) where the user selects their manager from the select list(generated from the query below)
    select FIRST_NAME || LAST_NAME d, MANAGER_ID r
    from PERSONNEL
    where TITLE = 'MGR'
    order by 1
    After the manager is selected and Apply changes is clicked, nothing is stored to the database.
    Have the Manager field specifications set as:
    Source Used: Only when current value is session state is null
    Source Type: Database column
    Maintain Session State: Per Session
    Source Value or Expression: MANAGER_ID

    Well, how have you created this form... manually or using wizard. If you have used wizard, then it would have asked you to select the table and it would have created process to update the same.
    If you have created this form manually then you need to add a processs to update this to database...

  • Multiple selection from a LOV

    I need to create an LOV from which the user needs be able to make more than one selection. Is this possible via an LOV (i.e can the LOV somehow
    return an array of values instead of just one)? If I should be using a different technique alltogether for this sort of thing please let me know.

    A LOV cannot do that.
    You have to build this manually, e.g. with a normal block on a modal window
    using check boxes for the selection.

  • How to move users between OU's from an exported list

    Hey Guys
    New to Powershell
    We are going to move large number of users from one OU to another.. For that I am using
    get-aduser -filter * -searchbase "OU=ou1,DC=domain" | move-adobject -targetpath "OU=ou2,DC=domain"
    As a backout plan we want to reverse that.. so what I am thinking is to right click on the OU1 and export list as txt. So we have all users in a tab/csv format with username.. How can I then write a one liner / script to search for all the users in the list
    in AD (or in specific OU2 in AD) and then move them to another OU (or OU1 as above example)?
    Or if there is a better quicker method please let me know.
    Cheers

    Hi,
    Here's something to start with:
    $targetOU = 'OU=Test 2,DC=domain,DC=com'
    Get-ADUser -Filter * -SearchBase 'OU=Test 1,DC=domain,DC=com' | ForEach {
    $props = @{
    Name = $_.Name
    Username = $_.SamAccountName
    OriginalOU = ($_.DistinguishedName -split ',OU=' -split ',')[1]
    NewOU = ''
    Status = ''
    try {
    Move-ADObject -Identity $_.DistinguishedName -TargetPath $targetOU -ErrorAction Stop
    $props.NewOU = ($targetOU -split ',' -replace 'OU=','')[0]
    $props.Status = 'Success'
    } catch {
    $props.Status = 'FAILED'
    New-Object PsObject -Property $props
    } | Sort Name | Select Name,Username,OriginalOU,NewOU,Status | Export-Csv .\userMoveDetails.csv -NoTypeInformation
    Don't retire TechNet! -
    (Don't give up yet - 12,950+ strong and growing)
    Sorry new to coding.. but this looks awefully complicated for my situation.. Won't the code which I have said simple move users from one container to another existing one? Just need to know how to do the reverse if needed .. OU2 will already have users..
    so need to differentiate and was thinking the right click on OU1 and export list.
    Thanks

  • Web UI - Value not getting selected from drop down list  .

    Hi  All ,
        I am facing a problem in one of the fields which is enhanced with a drop down functionality .
      I have created the GET_V_** method and also the GET_P_**  method for the same .And finally I am able to see the values in the drop down list . But the problem is , when I am trying to select a value from the drop down no values are selected .
    Can anyone plese help me in this as What has to be  done .
    I have taken references from few guides but I am not getting any clear idea of what has to be done .
    Regards,
    Ranjita

    Hi Ranjita,
                     To trigger a round trip, you must have given the event name in GET_P method.
    Same event handler would trigger.
      Please put a break point in Event Handler in IMPL class, and in SET_attr method of the attribute in CN class and see if value is getting set properly or not. Final value that would be displayed on UI would be there in GET_attr method of CN class.
      I hope it helps.
