How can i back to Text Item ???

i have TextItem
. in Post_Item Trigger i am Checking the value in Text Item
With Value in DataBase and Get Other Data Related by this value into another Text Item.
if value not Found in dataBase how can i came back to Text_item to change the value .
like text item contain code and return Name into another TextItem
if code not found do not leave TextItem.

First of all, do NOT do validation like that in a post-text-item trigger. You are needlessly running validation every time the user tabs through the field.
You should be putting validation ONLY in a when-validate-item or when-validate-record trigger. They only run if the value has been changed.
And any time you issue an error message, it must always be followed by RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;

You have to remember that Digital Editions was never designed to have 'text
editor' capabilities. BTW: Bluefire and Overdrive also have such
limitations. Put in another frame of reference, DE presents you with the

Hi hervorheben,
If the file is saved on Acobat.com, you need to download it and open it in Reader (or Acrobat) to use the commenting tools (including the Highlight tool). To download a file, log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files, select the file that you want to work on, and click the Download link at the top of the page.

How can I restore the text selection highlight colour to the default black colour in indesign CC ?

How can I restore the text selection highlight colour to the default black colour in indesign CC ?

Manish Shama, thanks for your speedy response. I was able to get into my MAC settings and change the background from the black to whatever color I like, so that helps (THANKS!). But the real issue is that the selected text does not turn white (even though that's what's specified in my MAC settings), it remains black. I really want to have the selection reverse out as it always has for years and years going all the way back to PageMaker Any ideas?

How can i make the text go vertically in numbers

How can I make the text vertical in numbers? I have merged the cells and cannot find an option for making it go vertical as opposed to horizontal.

I already gave two tools to fit this kind of needs.
tip #1 :
--{code}
--[SCRIPT write_vertically]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : write_vertically.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications :Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Saisir dans une cellule le mot à écrire verticalement puis le sélectionner.
ATTENTION, il ne faut pas sélectionner la cellule mais le mot qui doit apparaitre surligné.
Aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir “write_vertically”
Le script colle dans la cellule le mot apès avoir inséré un return entre tous les caractères.
Pour mon usage personnel j'associe un raccourci à ce script grace à FastScripts.
--=====
L’aide du Finder explique:
L’Utilitaire AppleScript permet d’activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l’Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus”.
Sous 10.6.x,
aller dans le panneau “Général” du dialogue Préférences de l’Éditeur Applescript
puis cocher la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre des menus”.
--=====
Save the script as a Script: write_vertically.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
In a cell, type a word to write vertically then select it.
CAUTION, don’t select the cell but the word which must be highlighted.
Go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose “write_vertically”
The script insert in the cell the word after inserting a return between every characters.
For my own use, I link a shortcut to the script thank to FastScripts.

The Finder’s Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the “Show Script Menu in menu bar” checkbox.
Under 10.6.x,
go to the General panel of AppleScript Editor’s Preferences dialog box
and check the “Show Script menu in menu bar” option.

Hi!
You can set list "initial value" using When-Create-Record trigger.
I.g.
:<Block_name>.<list_item_name> := Get_List_Element_Value('<Block_name>.<list_item_name>', 1);
