How to allow a max of 4 chars to be typed in gui textfield

I have textfields in my gui which i only want to allow the user to type in 4 numeric digits...is there a way to set some textfield property so that it will not hold more than 4 digits.

That isn't a great solution. What if they are at length 4 and they press the backspace key or the delete key, or they assing a key to clear the contents? You would have to add all those checks to your listener. If you modify the document then you don't have to worry about key bindings or pasting or checking for delete or backspace.

  • How to retreive the max data length of a column

    Hello All,
    I know how to do a select to get the max data length of a column it is this :
    SELECT MAX(LENGTH(COLUMN_NAME) FROM table.
    However, I need this information combined with my SQL that returns the Data_type and length from the USER_TAB_COLUMNS. So taking the emp example if the ename column was 50 as VARCHAR2 but the max data entered in it was just 20 I want the information like this:
    SELECT COLUMN_NAME, DATA_LENGTH, and the Max length of 20
    FROM USER_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME='EMP';
    I don't know how to get the Max Length of the Column in this table. Can anyone suggest me a hint? An Inline view maybe?
    Thanks

    Still not sure about your requirements, but how about this
    SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_max_length(p_table in varchar2, p_col in varchar2) return pls_integer
      2  is
      3    v_cnt pls_integer;
      4  begin
      5    execute immediate 'select max(length('||p_col||')) from '||p_table into v_cnt;
      6    return v_cnt;
      7  end get_max_length;
      8  /
    Function created.

    how to know a word is a char or number??
    urgent pl

    This question has appeared many times and you could search for previous answers.
    The most popular answer is to write a function which attempts to_number(input_string). If it is not a number this raises an exception which you can handle, thus allowing the function to return true or false.

    Hi,
    The ZBF link sent earlier show how we can inspect URI in http request
    parameter-map type regex uri_regex_cm
       pattern “.*cmd.exe”
    class-map type inspect http uri_check_cm
       match request uri regex uri_regex_cm
    ZBf is the feature on Cisco routers and ASA though concepts are little same but works differently. However it is important that you can be more granular with the protocol (layer 7) inspection only. Like on ASA if you will try to restrict .exe file from a p2p application that won't be possible, But on router you have some application for p2p in NBAR and you can use it file filtering. Please check configuartion example for both devices.
    Thanks

  • How to Convert a HEX value to CHAR value...Unicode Issue...

    Hi,
    How can I convert HEX value to CHAR value.
    The Code in <b>non Unicode</b> system is:
    DATA: t_text LIKE tline OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
    constants:   c_hex_20a5(2) TYPE x            VALUE '20A5'.
    t_text-tdline = 'seller of the item so listed.  A legend of the Seller Code(s) is as'.
          TRANSLATE t_text-tdline USING c_hex_20a5.
    The same code give error in <b>Uni-Code</b> system:
    <b>error is "c_hex_20a5 must be an character type object (C, N, D, T or String type)."</b>
    If anyone know, what is the solution, please let me know.
    Thanks!
    Puneet.

    Hi,
    Try declaring the Hex chars using the ABAP char utilities. This is just a sample piece of code on how to declare and use:
    CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
    DATA:  ws_lf TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.
    data:    c_newline           TYPE x VALUE '0D'.  [ it is zero D, for carriage return ]
    ws_lf = c_newline.
        CONCATENATE it_tab-maktx
                    ws_lf
                    ws_template
                    INTO it_notificatn-template.
    Hope this helps...

    Hello to everybody
    It's ok for the ~ " # % & * : < > ? / \ { | } characters, they cannot be allowed,
    but in a lot of languages there are letters like  è é à ù ò that are accepted for path and/or filename;
    how to allow these characters? Moss indexes them but when doing some searches and clicking on these files, in the new internet explorer windows the file cannot be opened abd examining the url the è é à ù ò are replaced with other character.

  • How to allow multiple wildcard elements in biztalk schema

    Hi,
    In my input xml, I can have one or more unknown elements in the xml. I know I can use <xs:any> in my schema for each of these elements but it does not work when there is unknown number of these unknown elements occuring in the input xml.
    I know the location in xml where these unknown elements appear but I dont know how many times they appear in each location.
    Any help on how to allow it would be very appreciated
    thanks
    manibest

    Hi manibest,
    You're trying to find a technical workaround on how to handle this in schema. But we have to understand that schema is to defining the structure and content of XML and you want a schema which is not going to define the content/structure of your
    XML, its basically a flaw to conceive a Schema which has no relation to the XML.
    Anyway what do you mean by " xml accepted by the schema"  - As mentioned in the
    other post you have raised today, if you don't enforce XML validation and if you don't bother about mapping this unknown fields across to the outbound schema or if your orchestration's processing is not bound to these unknown elements then you can
    do use it.  
    If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful by clicking the upward arrow mark next to my reply.

    Hey MTdev,
    Panel close? events cannot be triggered on a VI being viewed or controlled remotely. Some more information on that can be found in the help here:http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361E-01/lvprop/vi_panel_closeq/.  My suggestion would be to set the Title Bar on the front panel of your remote VI to not be visible so that their only option for closing the window is to click the logout button.  Are you using Remote Front Panels(http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3277) to do this instrument control?  Using remote front panels allows you to manage a lot of the multiple people accesssing at the same-time type issues so it may be something to look into if you are not already using this method.

    Hi Bhanu,
      I tried the calculation results as...Maximum,..
      But that will pick the maximum value among the avialable values..like
    plant1 max 10
    plant2 max 20
    plant3 max 30
    then it will show as..
    plant1 max 30
    plant2 max 30
    ...like this...but my case is
    plant1 calday1 10
    plant1 calday2 05
    plan1  calday7 08
    plant2 calday1 10
    plant2 calday2 05
    plan2  calday7 20

    Perhaps you should work your original forum post:
    Oracle 11g installation fail on Solaris 11 64bit - ORA-00443
    through to a resolution before you complicate things that likely don't apply.
    You make an assumption in that other post about exceeding various maximums. That may be true or it may not be true. Since the installation of a database program seems to be your actual expectation, go work that forum thread instead.

    How to allow multiple selection of nodes in a JTree ?
    Thanks
    S.Satish

    By default when you create new instance og JTree the selection model is multiple selection. And if you want to change it you use next:
    tee.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(TreeSelectionModel.SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION);
    or
    tree.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(TreeSelectionModel.CONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION);
    or
    tree.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(TreeSelectionModel.DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION);
