How can I avoid displaying specific extended field from a specific template

Hi,
I have created two extended field in Rfx page . I have 6 Rfx templates . These two extended fields are appearing in all the 6 templates . I want to display the extended fields for some specific templates . How can I do it ?
Best Regards
Swastik

Hi Swastik,
Your requirement is very much possible by Page Customization.
In Page Customization when you add the field for Hidden = yes
there are more attributes : Dimension Field , Dimension Field Type, Dimension Value
In this put
Dimension Field = DISPLAY_NAME
Dimension Field Type = Object Referance
Dimension Value = click search help to select your template.
Create this for each and every Template you reqiure to Hide the field.
Hope this solves your case.

How can I obtain the primary key of a table for an entity relation?

hello everybody
I am doing a consultation to a table in my data base, good this table has alone two fields, the first one is the code or pk and the second one is the description, to be presisos they are names of city and code.
From the beginning!!: This method this one in another class that is a Dialog that is going to call to the class SelecPlace ();
SelecPlace sl = new SelecPlace();
public void capturarLugar(){ // Simple void method in the mentioned class
        String place = txtProcedencia.getText() ; // a JTextField
        sl.executeStatement(place) ;
    }ok, now we see part of the code of the class SelectPlace
public class SelecPlace extends AbstractTableModel{
    Connection con = null;
    Statement sentencia = null ;
    ResultSet rs = null;
    ResultSetMetaData rsmd = null ;
    String[] nameColum = {} ;
    Vector datos = new Vector() ;
    public SelecPlace() { }
    public void executeStatement(String query){
      try{
         con = DBManager.getConnection() ;
         sentencia = con.createStatement(rs.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
                                                                      rs.CONCUR_UPDATABLE) ;
         String sql = "select * from Place where descripcion like %"+query+"%'";
          rs = sentencia.executeQuery(sql) ;
          rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
          int nroColumnas = rsmd.getColumnCount() ;
          nameColum = new String[nroColumnas] ;
          //obtengo los nombres de columnas en cache
           for(int colum = 0; colum < nroColumnas; columna++){
                nameColum[colum] = rsmd.getColumnLabel(columna + 1) ;
           datos = new Vector();
            while(rs.next()){
                Vector newRow = new Vector();
                for(int i = 0; i < getColumnCount(); i++){
                newRow.addElement(rs.getObject("place_ID"));
                newRow.addElement(rs.getObject("description"));
                datos.addElement(nuevaFila);
            fireTableChanged(null);
        }catch(SQLException e){
            System.err.println(e);
            e.printStackTrace(System.err);
            System.out.println("error in statement");
        }catch(ClassNotFoundException cnfe){
            System.err.println(cnfe);
    }Ok, this code me works and I obtain in this case the field description of the table Place
Now my question is, how can I obtain the primary field of my table?
I need this value of this field that in the base of information in a bigint, and to take it to the first class before mentioned, for that I am working with a data base related

Certain duffymo and everyone!!, good I give you my scheme:
And generalizing my question, I want to obtain the value of the primary key of a table in the database, I obtain more values of the same row, but I need the primary key, and you see one with the primary key I want to turn a Long and it to insert with code java in foreign clave in another table of the database
Good of this form I believe that it would not be breaking the integrity relacional of the tables

How can i avoid displaying runtime error in intractive report

hi gurus
my question is, in interactive report when i reach 20th secondary list after that am getting runtime error when i click again. So i wanted to know how can i avoid that run time error.
regars
imran

Hi Imran,
Basically we can have one basic list and 20 interactive lists.
Once when we reached to 20th list then it goes to shortdump.
So, inorder to avoid that we can modify the system field
SY-LSIND.
Just see this example and try this. I hope this will be useful for you.
REPORT ZSAMPLE1111.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
        matnr like mara-matnr,
        mtart like mara-mtart,
        mbrsh like mara-mbrsh,
        end of itab.
data: begin of jtab occurs 0,
      maktx like makt-maktx,
      spras like makt-spras,
      end of jtab.
select matnr mtart mbrsh into table itab from mara up to 10 rows.
loop at itab.
write:/ itab-matnr, itab-mtart, itab-mbrsh.
hide itab-matnr.
endloop.
at line-selection.
select maktx spras into table jtab from makt where spras = 'EN' .
case sy-lsind.
when '1'.
loop at jtab.
write:/ jtab-maktx, jtab-spras.
endloop.
when '20'.             * changes see here.
sy-lsind = 1.
when others .
write:/ 'name',sy-lsind.
endcase.
I hope this will be helpful for you.

How can we hide the non key field values in the sm30 display

hello experts,
I have to protect the non key field values in the sm30 display , can u help me out wat changes i have to do in the layout.

Hello Gopal,
What do you mean by 'protecting' your non-key field value?
1) You want to display it, but make it non-changeable
A - Make the field as output-only in screen, as already answered by a preivous collegue
2) You do not want to display this field at all
A - Goto the DDIC definition of the view (not possible for a table directly), and maintain the required field as a Hidden. After activating, remember to re-generate the maintenance dialogue. Also, please maintain Event 21, in case you want to access/change the value of this field in background.
3) You want to maintain special validations/checks for the field
This can be easily done by introducing your modules within the CHAIN-FIELD commands in the PAI of the generated screens.
Best Regards,
Rekha

Form not displaying primary key field

I create a form and the primary field is not displayed???

Hi user10731167.
When u use a create form wizard, it ask u about your primary key column, and build the form with the primary key element hidden.
Depending you data structure, you'd want the primary key be generated trough a trigger firing a sequence or not, but many times this is a no relevant data for the user but relevant to manipulate DML operations.
Depending your preferences, you can change this element type to standard (read only) o standard read write to "show" it, but this is not an option when you manage couple of tables where primary key of master tables are referenced in detail tables.
Happy year

How can we export the Primary key values (along with other data) from an Advantage database?

One of our customers is moving from our application (which uses Advantage Database Server) to another application (which uses other database technology). They have asked us to help export their data, so that they can migrate it to another database system. So far, we have used the Advantage Data Architect (ARC32) "Export Table Structures as Code" functionality to generate SQL. We used the "Include existing data" option. The SQL contains the necessary code to recreate the tables and indexes. The customer's IT staff will alter the SQL statements as necessary for their new system.
However, there is an issue with the Primary Keys in these table. The resulting INSERT statements use AutoInc as the type for the Primary Key in each Table. These INSERT statements contains "DEFAULT" for the value of each of these AutoInc fields. The customer would like to output an integer value for each of these Primary Key values in order to maintain referential integrity in their new system.
So far, I have not found any feature of ARC32 that allows us to export the Primary Key values. We had been using an older version of ARC32, since our application does not use the latest version of ADS. I did download the latest version of ARC32 (11.10), but it does not appear to include any new functionality that would facilitate doing this sort of export.
Can somebody tell me if there is such a feature in ARC32?
Or, is there is another Advantage tool to facilitate what we are trying to accomplish?
If there are no Advantage tools to provide such functionality, what else would you suggest?

George,
It sounds like the approach you are using is the correct one. This seems to be the cleanest solution to me especially since the customer is able to modify the generated SQL statements for their new system.
In order to preserve the AutoInc values I would recommend altering the table and changing the field datatype from AutoInc to Integer. Then export the table as code which will export the actual values. After the tables have been created on the new system they can change the field datatype back to an AutoInc type if necessary.

How can i avoid displaying the frame

Hi,
I am creating a graphical chart called windrose in a frame. I am converting the figure generated into an image file from the frame and then this image file will be called by a servlet. I would like to know if there is anyway that I can avoid the window that displays the frame. If I set the setvisible as false, the image is not being created. Please let me know if anyone has dealt with it before.
Thanks,

I believe you want to use Window rather than Frame.

Cannot modify value of primary key field after lookup.

I realize this could be a WebSphere problem, but I don't know if it is an EJB problem or what? So I'm posting anyway, and adding Duke Dollars in the hopes someone out there has encountered this.
Okay, I'm using WebSphere Studio Application Developer 4.0.3.
I am using an EJB that has three primary key fields.
I use the primary keys to lookup the bean.
I then want to update the value of one of the primary keys.
So I create a setter and getter method for that primary key field.
I then can call the set method, but it does nothing.
I get no errors.
It compiles.
I rebuild, regenerate access beans, and redeploy and rmic.
I can use ctrl-space to see the functions in the JSP editor.
However, the set function never gets called for some reason, and I get no runtime exception either.
For example, if I do this in my code:
MyBeanFactory myBean = new MyBeanFactory();
MyBeanKey myBeanKey = new MyBean(name,age,city);
MyBean myBean = myBeanFactory.findByPrimaryKey(myBeanKey);
// this function doesn't do anything, because it's a primary key field
// but it does compile and I get no runtime errors
myBean.setCity("Orlando");
// this function works fine, presumably because it isn't a primary key
myBean.setState("Florida");Questions;
Is there a restriction that says I can't update the value of a field if it is marked as a primary key?
If not, what could I be doing wrong?

Looks like your appserver is working as per the specification.

Answer
You cannot change the primary key field of an Entity bean. Refer to page 130 of the EJB 2.0 specification, it states "Once the
primary key for an entity bean has been set, the Bean Provider must not attempt to change it by use of set accessor methods
on the primary key cmp-fields. The Bean provider should therefore not expose the set accessor methods for the primary key
cmp-fields in the component interface of the entity bean."
A work around to update a primary key field, would be to remove and then an re-create the bean.

Problems deleting a primary key field in a table.

Hello Guys,
I deleted a primary key field in a custom table by clicking 'delete row' icon and then tried activating it through se14 - database utility. It is throwing an error saying 'Primary key change not permited for the value table zxxxx'. What is the problem???
How can I delete a primary key in a table??
Please help.
Thanks,
Naren

I am pasting the detail explaination over that error.
Primary key change not permitted for value table ZTV_RANGE_NUMBER
Message no. AD 300
Diagnosis
This table is defined as a check table. For reasons of consistency, changes to the primary key of the table are not allowed.
Procedure
If it is essential that you change the primary key, you must delete the relevant foreign keys. Refer to the where-used list to find all tables containing a field that is checked against this table. Delete the foreign keys for these fields.
If necessary, maintain the deleted foreign keys again.

How to find out the primary key of oracle apps tables

Hii,,
My Question is How to find the primary key in the apps table...Is there any Query or other way to find out???
for eg.
I want to find out the primary key of the AP_INVOICES_ALL table...just tell me how can i get the primary key of this table.
I am currently using toad for the query..
Please guide me...

you can define the primary key when you create table
or add the primary key after the table creation by 'ALTER TABLE ... ADD constraint pk_nme primary key (col1, col2)';
you could use below sql to check the detail of primary key:
1) check out the table definition directly:
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE','EMP') FROM DUAL;
2) check out the columns of primary key:
select * from user_constraints where constraint_type='P' AND table_NAME='EMP';
select * from user_cons_columns where CONSTRAINT_NAME='PK_EMP';And BTW, it is madam, not sir. :)

How to display the Primary key field in Application Form.

IDFINALNO , USERNAME
(No view) , RockQin
I developed one new application form which is including the "Edit" item in every record.
But I can not find the data that is Primary key field . So how to config the property to display that data.
Thanks a lot!

One of the guidelines when selecting column for a primary key is:
Choose a column whose data values are never changed. A primary key value is only used to identify a row in the table, and its data should never be used for any other purpose. Therefore, primary key values should rarely or never be changed.
Cheers!

How to add a new data element for existing table filed(Primary key field)

Hi Experts,
How to add a new data element for existing table field(Primary key field)
For this filed ther is no foreign key relation ships and even check table.
while activating table it is giving message like below.
can you help any one to solve this and wil steps to add new dataelement for existing primary key filed of a table.
Check table (NAMING SPACE/TABLE NAME(EX:/TC/VENDOR)) (username/19.02.10/03:29)
Primary key change not permitted for value table /TC/VENDOR
Check on table /TC/VENDOR resulted in errors
Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
Easiest way is to download the table eg into an Excel table (if possible) or text table. Drop the table from the database. Build your table with the new key field. Build the database table again and fill it.
You can do it also over the database into a new table. Drop the old one. Build the enhanced one and fill it. Afterwards drop your (temporary) table.
Maybe there are other ways, but this works.
Success,
Rob

How many primary key fields allowed for one table?

hi,
when i creating a table , how many primary key fields are allowed for one table.
please any one give ans
thanks

Just checked it, Its 255, not 155. You can have as many key fields as you want, but you can not go over the 255 byte length for the total of all key fields. You will get a warning for over 120, as it says that there is limited functionality with a key over 120 in length.
Again, this is a total length of all key fields.
