How can I reference a Value in a Field?

Here is my problem. I have a two fields, say F_2 & F_3, defined in the layout editor. One field has a defined source of Page Number and the other field has a defined source of Total Pages. Each of these fields page numbering properties have been set so that the page numbers reset at a repeating group level. Within the report I have a program unit where I want to be able to use the values stored in these fields for calculations inside the program unit. How can this be done?

I have actually tried putting a ':', :F_2, in front of the field name. Doing this returns an error saying that I have a bad bind variable. I have also tried to put an '&', &F_2, in front of the field name. This also returns an error. This time the error is, encountered the sysbol '&' when expecting ...
Thanks for the suggestion. Any ideas, tips, and/or suggestions would be appreciated.

  • How can I set a value in a field before create when a New button is clicked

    Hi,
    I am using
    JDeveloper 10.1.3.1.0.3984 and
    JHeadstart 10.1.3.1 release 10.1.3.1.26
    I have one group and there is a detail group under that group.
    From main group to detail group there are 3 field relating those groups.
    field1
    field2
    fieldSEQ (auto-generated by database trigger)
    These 3 fields are PK.
    In the detail group, there is a New button. So, when the New button is clicked, it tries to create the record with those 3 fields value as those are coming from main group. As a result it's giving the duplicate error as that record already exists in the table.
    But I don't want to create the record with that SEQ as that will be created in the trigger.
    How can I set the SEQ temporarily any no. (-1) before create when the New button is clicked?
    Can anybody help?
    Thanks

    Hello Syad,
    What I would suggest is setting the sequence number at the creation of the entity object (so in the create() method) by using the database sequence. This way it will always be unique.
    So something like:
    protected void create(AttributeList AttributeList) {
    super.create(AttributeList);
    SequenceImpl sequence =
    new SequenceImpl("KCP_SEQ", getDBTransaction());
    setFieldSeq( sequence.getSequenceNumber());
    If this still does not solve it: please go to the ADF Forum since this problem is an ADF problem, not a JHeadstart problem.

    Tomcat said incorrect column name.How can i get the result set when the field name is user's defined.
    Best regards

    Hi Ricky
    To access pseudo columns you can specify an alias or use the index on the column (e.g. getInt(1)).
    Chris
    NB: you should use bind variables instead of concatenating the id to the SQL statement.

  • How can I set default value in a field based on a LOV?

    Here's the LOV:
    select txtName, ID
    from FAC_LK_PROJECT_PRIORITY
    order by 1
    I tried:
    select id from FAC_LK_PROJECT_PRIORITY priority where txtname = 'Medium';
    and set the default value type to be PL/SQL function body but that didn't work - I get this error:
    ORA-06550: line 2, column 1: PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement
    Error ERR-9131 Error in PLSQL function body for item default code, item=P19_PRIORITYID
    OK
    The item is a select list w/ db column as source: PRIORITYID

    Hi Scott. thanks for answering. I get from your post that I need to declare a variable and then return something. I changed it to this
    declare v_id number := null;
    begin
      select id into v_id
          from FAC_LK_PROJECT_PRIORITY priority
          where txtname = 'Medium';
      return v_id;
    end;and it works.
    Why do you use a loop? In case there's >1 row returned by the query?

  • How can I get command values from a VI executed by reference ? NEWBIE

    Hi,
    I'm running a sub-vi in a "Secondary Front Face" (excuse for the
    translation if not correct, I'm working on a French version). In order
    to run this VI, I pass a reference. All is working fine but I don't
    know how can I get the values entered by the user in this VI ?
    Actually I run a main VI wich contains a "Secondary Front Face" (this
    SFF is contained in a tabbed pane). In my diagramm, I pass a reference
    to another VI (by the name of the file *.vi). If my user enter a word
    in a text field, I would like to be able to get it in my main app.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello,
    You might take a look at the following tutorial for more information about calling a VI by reference. It's got some great visuals and examples.
    Tutorial: Calling a VI by Reference
    You might also consider just calling the secondary VI as a simple subVI, if you can spare the memory space when loading the main application, as this is the easiest way to input and output VI values.
    I hope this helps! Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

    Frank,
    I tried to find some examples/samples on how to create CollectionModel for a table component but not successful.
    Can you clarify the following ?
    1. "CollectionModel" is referenced only by af:table attributes "value", "selectedRowKeys" and "selectionListener".
    The rest of af:table attributes such as "rows", "fetchSize" used to reference the iterator binding in the binding container via the EL expression "#{bindings.VOIteratorBinding.xxx} .
    What should I replace that EL expression with?
    2. I heck out the bean method to create the CollectionModel as following, is it close to what you mean?
    public void initBusinessDataDashboardView() {
    OperationBinding operation = BeanUtils.getOperationBinding("getPanelBusinessData");
    Map params = operation.getParamsMap();
    Key panelKey = getPanelInfoView().getKey();
    params.put("panelKey", panelKey);
    params.put("maximizedView", false);
    panelView = (ViewObject)operation.execute();
    // Heck code to create CollectionModel
    RowSet rowSet = panelView.getRowSet();
    ArrayList rowList = new ArrayList();
    while (rowSet.hasNext()) {
    rowList.add(rowSet.next());
    model = new ChildPropertyTreeModel(rowList, null);
    // To be used to set up af:table value, selectRowKeys, selectionListener via EL expr #{backingBeanScope.MyBean.model.xxx}
    public CollectionModel getModel() {
    return model;
    Am I on the right track?

  • How can I reference a winforms control using a variable in Powershell?

    I have a powershell winform that has a lot of text boxes, but for the sake of this post, lets say I have 5. I want to loop through the 5 text boxes to see if their text property is empty. If the textbox contains something, I want to add the text value to
    an array. Here's an example of what I'm trying to do.
    textbox1.text = "Red"
    textbox2.text = ""
    textbox3.text = "Blue"
    textbox4.text = ""
    textbox5.text = ""
    $MyArray = @()
    for ($i = 1; $i -le 5; $i++) {
    If ($textbox[$i].text -ne "") {
    $MyArray += $textbox[$i].text
    I realize the textbox object is not an array so this code will not work. I guess the simple question is, How can I reference a set of static controls using a variable without having to do something like this
    [object[]]$textboxes = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.TextBox
    For ($i = 1; $i -lt 5; $i++) {
    $textboxes += New-Object windows.forms.textbox
    $textboxes[$i].DataBindings.DefaultDataSourceUpdateMode = [System.Windows.Forms.DataSourceUpdateMode]::OnValidation
    $textboxes[$i].Name = $textboxes[$i]
    $BoxItems.Controls.Add($textboxes[$i])

    Hi D-Dub,
    here are two ways to retrieve the text value of $Textbox1:
    $Textbox1.Text
    (Get-Variable "Textbox1").Value.Text
    Now what could you do with the second way, inside a loop, I wonder ... ;)

    You need to bind the code variable value in the regular expression patternYes, that's the idea, but there is a caveat. You might need to escape every regexp special character that appears in code. If, for example code is 'A*B' you need to transform it into 'A\*B' unless you really want 'A*B' to be interpreted as uppercase A repeated zero or more times followed by uppercase B.

  • How can we show selected values of a tree in a selectmanylistbox

    how can we show selected values of a tree in a selectmanylistbox??

    Hi,
    you can use a reference to a RichTree component instance and call  getSelectedRowKeys on it. The selected rowKey then allow you to look-uo the nodes in the tree. You can use a custom selection listener on the tree to be notified about each selection. There also is an API for the de-selected row keys, which you need to remove nodes from the select many list. The select many list will get its data from a managed bean in view scope (so the values survive subsequent requests)

  • How can one reference symbols from PutBIN.pl?

    I've been working on some code with a large number of static
    variables, and my startup times have gotten so slow that my swf
    will hit the fifteen second timeout before actually doing anything.
    Confuddled by this, I examined the code being generated and
    eventually realised that Alchemy allocates all static values one
    byte at a time, dynamically in Actionscript, at startup. This is
    less than ideal when one has large static arrays.
    So, as my code is not much use timing out, I spent some time
    writing a bash script to parse the $$.achacks.as sourcefile
    generated by alchemy, track all the static global variables, and
    write their values out into a memory file in advance. The script
    then removes all non-function-pointer references to StaticInitter,
    which is what processes the byte-by-byte initialisations, and
    replaces them with a single ByteArray readBytes() call. After these
    changes, I allow alchemy to compile my new code into the resulting
    swc/exe/swf. I expect it would now start up lightning fast.
    For this to work, the assumption is that I can get a
    ByteArray into the code that already contains the values I need. I
    tried using [Embed()] metadata, but alchemy does not seem to
    support it. I suppose that is what PutBIN.pl is for -- and hence my
    question.
    How can one reference a symbol loaded with PutBIN.pl? What
    must be passed to it and how is that related to what's in the code?
    Is there an example anywhere? I can't seem to get it to work.
    If others are interested in my script, I am glad to attach
    it, but it is relatively long.

    It's supposed to be ora_dict_obj_type. This is one of many event attributes that we can interrogate in DDL triggers. You can find out more in the online docs.

  • How can i get all values from jtable with out selecting?

    i have one input table and two output tables (name it as output1, output2). Selected rows from input table are displayed in output1 table. The data in output1 table is temporary(means the dat wont store in database just for display purpose).
    Actually what i want is how can i get all values from output1 table to output2 table with out selecting the data in output1 table?
    thanks in advance.

    You could set the table's data model to be the same:
    output2.setModel( output1.getModel() );

  • How can I reference more than one jar file

    hi, In an applet, I use
    Archive = "foo.jar" to reference this jar file.
    But how can I reference more than one file?
    Thanks.

    Suggestion: spend a few minutes reading the tutorials.
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/applet/appletsonly/html.html
    You can specify multiple archive files by separating them with commas:

  • How can I return multiple values with PL/SQL Web Services

    Hi,
    I'm new to developping Web Services. I'm doing some tests with JDeveloper and OC4J on my local machine with a Web Services based on a PL/SQL function within a package. Right now that function only returns one value. So the xml response only has one output.
    I'd like to know how can I return multiple values with my PL/SQL Web Service. For example, if I want to return an employee's name and id? And that the xml contains two output : <employee>, <empid>?
    Reginald
    ps : I have searched the forum and I couldn't find an answer to this question, if that has been discussed AND answered before, can you please post the link? Thanks

    Alright, I actually found my answer. Since this was asked I think as a followup somewhere else I'll give my answer.
    It is very simple, all you have to do is create an Object Type and then Return that object type. After that, JDeveloper will take care of everything and you will have an xml response with multiple values. Here
    {color:#ff0000}
    create or replace TYPE person AS OBJECT
    ( id_interv number,
    first_name VARCHAR2(50),
    last_name VARCHAR2(50),
    date_birth date
    );{color}
    Then your function used in your Web Service should look something like this :
    {color:#ff0000}
    function info_emp (p_empno IN VARCHAR2) RETURN person AS
    l_emp person := person(-1,'','','');
    BEGIN
    SELECT first_name
    ,last_name
    ,emp_no
    INTO l_emp.first_name
    ,l_emp.last_name
    ,l_emp.emp_no
    FROM emp
    WHERE upper(emp_no) = upper (emp_no);
    {color}
    {color:#ff0000}
    RETURN l_emp;
    EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
    l_emp := person (-1,'n/a','n/a','n/a');
    RETURN l_emp ;
    END info_emp;{color}
    {color:#ff0000}{color:#000000}After that, this is what the xml response looks like :{color}{color}
    &lt;first_name xsi:type="xsd:string"&gt;John&lt;/first_name&gt;
    &lt;last_name xsi:type="xsd:string"&gt;Doe&lt;/last_name&gt;
    &lt;emp_no xsi:type="xsd:string"&gt;0250193&lt;/emp_no&gt;
