How to define a window as constant in a sap script??

hi gurus..
developing a sap script for test..
i am confused how do i define a window as constant?? i m lookin on screen and there are two options only
1)main
2)variable.
also tell me y and wen variable window is used and constant window is used???
thanks
gaurav

Main window is dnamic window as in when the data flows to second page, main window can still hold it.
Eg: Invoice can contain 100 line items thus the invoice could be of several pages. The line items will flow on the other pages.
Other cannot hold data. If the data flows to second page and if its now a main window, there will be loss of data.
Plz reward if useful

Your servlet (or JSP) can't decide where it is going to be displayed. The browser has already decided that when it makes the request to your servlet.

User-Defined Fields Window

Hi All,
I have one issue with the User-Defined Fields window of the ACTIVITY form.
I had added some user defined fields (UDF) to the Activities so that the User-Defined Fields are displaying in a separate window just near to the Activity window with Type (-651). All the UDFs are bound to the table, "OCLG".
I want to initialize the values in the User defined fields controls with a text when the form is loading.
I had tried to do this using
oForm.Datasources.DBDatasources.Item("OCLG").SetValue("U_CUST",0,"MyValue");When I executed this statement, i am getting HResult error.
Then I tried this by using UserDataSources.
The same error repeats.
But the code with .Specific.String = NewVal is working fine.
Can you please explain the scenarios that we are able to do it using .Specifc.String. Is this a true method for doing this?
if not
please tell me How can we do this using Datasources (DBDatasources/ UserDataSources),?
Please Help.
Thank you in Advance
Anoop

Anoop,
when you have created UDF in master item data, the textbox you can see on left side of form (separate form) is bounded already to this field. You cannot rebound it (its system form).
When you want to change the value, you must use specific.string or specific.value for that textbox (as you wrote), but the calcualted value will be stored into master table (change of udf will set formmode to update mode). If you dont need to update formmode, set the formmode by code to normal mode.
hope it helps

Abdetu...Hi Abdetu,
There is 3 parameters in the <DevSuiteHome>\forms\server.formsweb.cfg having the same behavior.
Logo
Background
SplashScreen
By default (if you don't have specified them in you [section] they values are inherited from the [default] section) the values are
Logo=
Background=
SplashScreen=
This means you will have the oracle logo, the Forms Services background image in your applet and the oracle splash screen at startup.
*To have nothing shown then just put the value no in front of these 3 parameters*
Logo=no
Background=no
SplashScreen=noYou can also customize that with you own gif files.
For this you have to put your images in a icons.jar file
place it in your <DevSuiteHome>\forms\java where frmall.jar and others are located.
then in your formsweb.cfg :
Archive=frmall.jar, icons.jar
ImageBase=CodeBase
Logo=yourlogo.gif
Background=yourbackground.gif
SplashScreen=yourbeautifullsplachscreen.gifAnd at least if you have a small gif in your icons.jar for the window you can also defining the Icon Filename property in Forms builder. This wile replace the default forms runtime icon.
Hope this helps

Define Function Window

Hi,
I am new in HRMS Functional but I have good technical knowledge. Somethings are confusing me:
*1.     Define Function:*
     a.     Should parameter name on Define Function window and the PLSQL Function or Procedure parameter name must be same?
     b.     What is the purpose of context usages on Define Function window ? How we use it? We do not pass the context usages parameter
          in function then how PLSQL understands its value?
Regards,
Waqas Hassan

Thanks Mr. Vigneswar Battu,
I have seen the GET_TABLE_VALUE function and I got the answer, please guide me.
Parameters Order:
1. In PL/SQL function, first we give context usages parameters, parameter names might be different but the order must be same.
2. In PL/SQL function, second we give the formula function parameters, parameter names might be different but the order must be same.
For Example:
function get_table_value (
-- context usages parameter
p_bus_group_id in number,
-- formula function parameters
p_table_name in varchar2,
p_col_name in varchar2,
p_row_value in varchar2,
p_effective_date in date default null
) return varchar2;
Is that true?

HDD failure, I'd like to know how to get Windows 7 back on it.

Hello everyone, I've had a HDD issue lately, but before I move on to describe my issue, here are the specs of my notebook:
HP Pavilion dv6-3264ca
AMD Triple-Core CPU 2.2 Ghz
6GB RAM
128MB ATI Graphic Card
750GB Toshiba HDD
Windows 7 64-bit
The issue:
Recently I've had a very unfortunate HDD failure. The recovery partition wouldn't even load. I tried booting my notebook on Linux with the HDD still attached, and it wouldn't read. I extracted the HDD and placed it in an HDD-enclosuer and it still wouldn't load on Windows XP or Vista or 7. It would however read in the device manager of Windows and also in the BIOS.
I needed to extract some high-priority data from there so I managed to retrieve all my data safely through a data recovery service, but now the drive is rendered useless. I was told a low-level format might be able to help it be usable again, and if that were to happen, the recovery partition would then be removed in the process.
In addition to that, I would like to install Windows 7 64-bit onto the drive, but the notebook box did not come with an installation CD, which is quite frustrating. Is there any way HP can let me download Windows 7 through some warranty service?
I have a one-year warranty on my laptop.
So in closing, I would like to know if I can get Windows 7 back onto my HDD for free, or if I need to go about buying Windows 7 again.
Any advice from you kind folks?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
Here are Two options.
1. If you have ( or can borrow ) a retail Windows 7 installation disc that is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie if your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the exact retail version you would need.
If you don't have access to a retail disc, you can create an installation disc yourself - just download the correct Disc Image from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD.
http://www.mydigitallife.info/download-windows-7-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit-direct-download-link...
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the underside of your notebook when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.
http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/how-to-activate-windows-7-by-phone.aspx
Any additional drivers you may need can be found Here.
2. You can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below - these cost around $30 if you live in the US.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00810334&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en
If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

How to install Windows 7/Vista as 2nd OS and retain predesktop environment (service partition)

This is a step-by-step instruction how to install Windows Vista or Windows 7 as a second OS on a Lenovo Thinkpad that originally shipped with Windows XP AND how to retain the access to the Lenovo Service Partition.
I have been searching the internet for instructions like these but could not find anything useful. So I am posting it
here. Maybe this helps other users.
I have tested the procedure below with installation of Windows Vista Ultimate (64bit) and Windows 7 Ultimate (64bit). I believe that the procedure will also work with the 32bit versions of these OSs. I am not totally convinced that this works when the OS to install is Windows XP (64bit or 32bit). XP has a completely different boot sequence compared to Vista or 7. The basic steps would remain the same, but the XP setup is less forgiving when it finds an unknown partition. If somebody wants to try it out, please post your results as a reply to this forum entry.
Never never never try to install an older OS (like Windows 2000 or NT) as a second OS when XP is already installed! This is doomed to fail.
The procedure below does NOT work for Linux installations. I am not a Linux wizard, but any Linux bootmanager I know about is incompatible with the Lenovo Service Partition.
The procedure was tested on a Thinkpad R61 model 8918-B9G. It should work similar on other models.
You definitely need a service partition with Rescue&Recovery version 4. It will NOT work with older versions of R&R or if the service partition is not a type12 partition (see below how to find out about that).
I assume that the harddisk partitions are unmodified, i.e. still have factory settings. This is likely the case if you
never attempted any OS install or recovery action. If this is not the case, the procedure may or may not work.
You also need a bootable CD with a tool that can change the size of your current system partition. I was using gparted live version 0.5.2-9. ( http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ )
Everything you do is at your own risk. I am in no way related to Lenovo, other than being a customer using their
products.
Step 1) Make a full backup of your harddisk. Get yourself recovery CDs for your Thinkpad model if you don't have any. The changes we are about to make can completely screw up your harddrive. A typo is sufficient for that to happen.
Step 2) Power on the system. Check that you can boot into the Service Partition by pressing the Thinkvantage button when the startup screen appears. (Older systems may have a differently named button.) If there is a problem booting the service partition now, it is likely that the rest of this procedure will not fix it.
Step 3) From the service partition choose 'Warmstart' to reboot the system. Reboot Windows XP, logon.
Open a command prompt. CD to the following directory:
\Program Files\Common Files\Lenovo\BMGR
On a german language system (like mine) it is
\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Lenovo\BMGR
If you have an older IBM system the directory may be named
\Program Files\Common Files\IBM\BMGR
or something like that. Maybe you need to search around.
In the following, I will call this the "BMGR dir".
Enter the following command:
bmgr32 /info /v
You should get an output similar to this:
C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Lenovo\BMGR>bmgr32 /info /v

The important thing to look for is the 0x12 partition type in the partition table at the bottom. This is the service
partition. If you do not have a 0x12 partition, then you can stop here because the rest of the procedure will not work
for you.
Step 4) Shutdown and boot gparted from CD. Shrink the system partition to the desired size. Do NOT touch the service partition! Do NOT attempt to create another partition! Leave the new white space on the disk untouched! Apply changes and restart the system.
Step 5) Reboot XP. gparted has set the NTFS dirty bit. This will cause XP to run a full CHKDSK. Depending on how much files there are on the partition this may take considerable time. Let CHKDSK run to completion. When CHKDSK finishes, the system will automatically reboot.
Step 6) XP reboots now. Logon. When loading the desktop, XP will show a popup window, stating that system settings have been changed and new devices been discovered and that the system should be rebooted. This is ok. XP actually recognized the shrunk system partition and applied the necessary changes to its own system parameters. Click YES to reboot the system.
Step 7) XP reboots. Logon. Open a command prompt, CD to the BMGR dir and enter:
bmgr32 /info /v
The output you get should be similar to the output you have seen in step 3, except that the partition 0 size column
shows a smaller value.
Step 8) Shutdown, restart. Check that you can still access the service partition by pressing the blue Thinkvantage button when the system startup screen appears.
Step 9) From the predesktop environment choose warmstart. Reboot XP. Logon, logoff, shutdown.
DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!!! If you start the Windows Vista/7 install right after shutting down from the predesktop
environment, the Win Vista/7 setup program will screw up your harddisk! The Lenovo MBR bootmgr reboot takes two steps for completion. The first step is the shutdown and the second step is executed when booting from harddisk. A boot from the Windows CD will skip this second step and disaster finds its way...
Step 10) Insert the Windows Vista/7 DVD and boot it. Start the setup. Choose "Custom (advanced)" install. It will show the partitions on the disk. Select the white space (unallocated). Click on "disk options (advanced)". Click on "New" to create a new partition in the white space. Keep the default size, click "Apply". Click "Format". A popup window appears stating that the partition may hold OEM data. Continue. Click "Next". Installation starts.
Continued in the second post...

Step 11) Win Vista/XP will reboot several times during installation. You will always see the Windows bootmanager with an entry for "Earlier Windows version" and "Windows Vista/7". DO NOT DARE to touch the blue Thinkvantage button on any reboot or press any function keys!
Step 12) When the installation is finished, check that you can successfully reboot Win Vista/7 by selecting it from the Windows bootmanager.
Step 13) Reboot XP by choosing "Earlier Windows version" from the Windows bootmanager. Open a command prompt. CD to the BMGR dir. Enter the following command:
bmgr32 /info /v
The output will now look like this:
C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Lenovo\BMGR>bmgr32 /info /v

startLBA and size will of course differ, depending on the actual partition sizes you have set. Note that Windows setup moved the service partition to entry 2 of the partition table. If you do not see the 0x12 partition then stop here.
Otherwise the following step will likely screw up you harddisk.
Enter the following command (case sensitive?):
bmgr32 /Fbootmgr.bin /m0 /IBM /v

So you have actually regained the Lenovo bootmanager. But you are not done yet.
Step 14) Shutdown. Restart the system. DO NOT PRESS THE BLUE THINKVANTAGE BUTTON AT THE SYSTEM STARTUP SCREEN!!! IT DOES NOT WORK YET! When the system startup screen DISAPPEARS, quickly press F11 (maybe several times). The system should now boot the predesktop environment from the service partition.
Step 15) When the predesktop is there, choose "warmstart". When the system startup screen appears, press the blue Thinkvantage button. The system should again boot into the predesktop. The blue Thinkvantage button now works permanently.
Step 16) Check that you can boot Win XP and Win Vista/7 from the Windows bootmanager. You're done!

You need to insert the Created CD/DVD or USB drive into the optional drive of the locked computer and reboot it.
Tips: It your computer still boots from hard drive Windows OS, it's necessary for you to change your COMS or BIOS settings to make it boot from CD/DVD or USB drive. If you don’t know how to set it, you may visit the official website: http://www.resetwindowspassword.net or contact the computer manufacture.
The computer boots from CD/DVD or USB drive, then
1 The program will ask for the Windows OS hard drive volume. Enter the ID number of the hard drive volume that Windows is installed.
2 The program has detected all the user names of Windows and asks which user name password is to be removed. Enter the ID number for the User Name.
3 The program asks to confirm weather to remove the password or not. Enter "y" (yes) to confirm your action and "n" (no) to deny the action and hit "Enter".
4 The program asks whether to continue to remove passwords for other accounts. Enter "y" to continue and "n" to finish. Eject your USB from your computer first and press any key to restart the computer from Windows. Now you can log in Windows with an empty password (with no password.), just click “Enter” when you login.
If you have any questions of the procedure and the settings, you could visit the website:http://www.resetwindowspassword.net or send email to [email protected].
Now you could see that to reset or recover the admin login password of windows OS: XP, Vista, Windows 7 or 2000 is not so difficult and you can do it with ease.

How to install Windows 8.1 Pro on Macbook Pro

Hello everyone,
I'm new to these forums and new to bootcamping as well but have been reading all kinds of posts about how to install Windows 8.1 on their Macs using bootcamp. I am however having trouble with this situation as I have no clue what to do next. I have a Macbook Pro 2011, running on Maverics, and I recently downloaded a digital copy of Windows 8.1 Pro, 64-bit, for the Mac platform, along with its CD key through my University's hub website as can be seen here.
After finishing the downloading process, I received this file which is about 4GB large.
When i double click on the file this happens. It opens something on DEVICES which gives me what is on the 2nd image.
At this point, I'm at a loss on what to do next. Do i burn the file on a DVD hoping that Bootcamp will recognize it as a windows disc? Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

You need a 'Full' Installer.
From Boot Camp 5.1: Frequently asked questions - Apple Support
Which versions of Windows work with Boot Camp 5.1?
Boot Camp 5.1 supports 64-bit, non-Enterprise versions of Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1. This version of Boot Camp doesn't support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or any 32-bit version of Windows. Depending on your Mac, you may be able to use an earlier version of Boot Camp to work with other versions of Windows. For details, see the Boot Camp system requirements for Microsoft Windows.
Can I perform an upgrade install from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows?
It's not possible to upgrade a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows. Back up your important files, then perform a new install of the 64-bit version of Windows.

How to install Windows 7 on a MacBook Air?

Hi everybody,
I am sorry in case this has been covered before, but i couldnt find anything searching different categgories here, so i´d appreciate some help.
I have got a late 2011 MacBook Air with lots of SSD and so on and i want to install windows 7.
I bought a wndows 7 OEM DVD (actually, two discs, one says support software)
I have tried to run bootcamp and follow the instructions, but to now end.
on my macbook air, i get the option "create a windows 7 disc" or something like that (the first option), which doesnt help me because i dont have optical drive
when i start boot camp on my iMac, this option will be greyed out.
Also, I have tried to to ISO copys of the windows DVD and save them to a USB stick but i just wouldnt come to any result.
does anybody have a good, comprehensive instruction on how to install windows 7 on an MBA withou optical drive?
Also, is 30GB OK for Win 7 if you basically dont wanna do to much in windows (no office etc, just some small clients)
thanks!

30GB is not enough, especially on an SSD. Normally 50-60GB and with SSD I'd go with 80-90GB.
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp faq, how to, special instructions for Air
There is a program to create DVD from ISO or .exe
Apple Boot CAmp Assistant should have prompted to save a driver for you to support a USB-DVD, in addition to the normal Apple B.C. drivers you save to flash card.
Disk Utility is not a good method for burning Windows DVDs.

How to install windows 7 on Old Macbook Pro 15'inch 2.3 Core 2 Duo

How to install windows 7 on Old Macbook Pro 15'inch 2.3 Core 2 Duo:
I want to known how to install windows 7 on Old Macbook 15'inch 2.3 Core 2 Duo by using usb
I try many time, but after restart bootcamp partition, apple show blinking folder error
I think this firmware not support to install windows by usb
NOTE:
I Cannot install Apple New OSX Mountain Lion, Mavericks etc in this MAC
If I cannot install windows 7 on this MAC, so tell me what I will do with this MAC ?

I agree with the optical drive, mine acted strange, and i thought people were crazy and my drive was shot, but a simple cleaning disc worked miracles.
But- are you trying to reboot with both the USB install and the DVD install both plugged in? that would definitely cause confusion.
Do this, reboot with NOTHING plugged in. Once you hear the Mac chime, immediately press and hold option.
You should only see the Mac HD, and Recovery Partition.
THEN plug in your external DVD, and wait a min or two, you should see a disc icon appear next to the recovery partition that says something like windows. If that doesnt appear after a min or two, unplug it and put the USB stick and do the same thing. I had to do it this way on my mid 09 MBP.
Let me know if this works to start the install. If not we may have to start over with Bootcamp Assistant

I have Macbook Pro 13" mid 20012. How to install Windows 8 onto the mac using DVD? 10.8.3

the title says it all.
i have windows 8 DVD and i would like to have a clear instructions on how to install windows 8. I dont understand the need for USB

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You need a USB drive to install the Windows support software. It contains all the drivers that your MacBook Pro needs, and you will have to install them after finishing the Windows installation. If you don't install them, a lot of things won't work: the wireless card, the sound card, the brightness, the trackpad gestures... Apart from that, you don't need it for anything else.
Apple has released the official steps to install Windows 8 on a Mac, so if you want, print this PDF > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.8.pdf

How to install Windows 8(8.1) on my MacBook Air (mid 2011)

When I try to install Windows 8 in EFI mode, install complete successfuly, but after Windows EFI boot, I haven't Audio and have basic Video driver. I try to install native (from BootCamp) drivers for this devices, but Windows don't want to install this drivers.
Please, help me! Thanks!

The proper way to install Windows is thru BootCamp. Although Apple uses many standard components such as Intel's CPUs and Toshiba SSDs, it also uses proprietary components not available to the Wintel market. As such Apple is the only source for drivers and BootCamp is the environment within which they are installed.
If you want to use your MBA solely as a Windows computer you'll need to start over and create the maximum sized BootCamp partition with a minimal Mac partition. That may not be what you want but it is how every happy Windows user I know of has insulted their Mac.
