How to change Infoobject length in Datasource - Netweaver2004s

We are using Netweaver 2004s and when I try to load data using flatfile getting the below error.
I have mapped legacy field HSTDRWMO of type NUMERIC 8 with BW field ZMONDRW of type QTY.
I am getting the following error:::
Error 'The argument ' .00 .' cannot be interpreted as a number' while assigning character to application structure *****
In DATASOURCE I tried to change the length of the BW infoobject in the length box from 17 to 8 and it is not allowing to change. When I change, it is automatically resets back to original length.
Is there any other way to change the length in this screen rather than changing the infoobject itself.
Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Hi Sivaraman,
let's have another look on Ron's reply:
As he said, a datasource consists of fields (see tab "fields", column "fields"), not infoobjects. There, I understand, you typed in your field name ZMONDRW. Then, I suppose, you typed into the column "template infoobject" the same name. That's why BI uses the length etc of the infoobjct ZMONDRW for your field in the datasource.
You do not need to fill in a "template infoobject". In that case you are free to define your field ZMONDRW in your datasource. I hope that might help you.
Best regards,
Iris

How to change the lengths of the layout

Hi ,
I am executing one report, output is coming fine but next if i go to print preview for PO number only 9 digits are appearing one digit is missing, actually column is trucated, there in print preview there is one tab called Change Layout, there if i see length of the PO no is 9, so its showing only 9 digits, actually length of the PO no should be 10.in change layout the length is editable i can change from 9 to 10, after that there is a button called copy, then it will show correctly, it works only one time, so each and every time user has to change the length, so can any one suggest how to change that length in the layout permanently, bcos there is no save button there.
Can any one tell me from where all these lengths are coming which are appearing in change layout.Surely its not coming from the report.

Hi friend,
That depends upon the space provided by the ALV column for that variable or the heading size its not based on the data element size.
If you want to be more clear lust count the space available for each field available at the print preview.
The details for that are stored in table T180S just see the documentation available for that table.
And see when the table is getting filled like that so that you will be able to find a solution where and how it is getting populated.
Use column width optimization for getting the correct output.
If you have any queries in this please revert back to me i will help you.
Thanks,
Sri Hari

How to change the length of a JTextField?

Hello,
I am trying to shorten the length of a JTextField with the following code :
// up to this point, getColumns() returns a value of 35.
jTextField1.setColumns(20);
(jTextField1.getParent()).invalidate();
(jTextField1.getParent()).validate();
When I ran this code, it does not change the length of the text field at all.
I wonder if I am writing my code correctly or is there a better/more correct
way to do this?
Thank you for your help.

Packing a frame works:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class ShortText implements ActionListener {
    JTextField txtF;
    JFrame frame;
    public ShortText() {
     frame = new JFrame();
     frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     txtF = new JTextField(30);
     JButton btn = new JButton("Shorten");
     btn.addActionListener(this);
     frame.add(txtF, BorderLayout.NORTH);
     frame.add(btn, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
     frame.pack();
     frame.setVisible(true);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
     new ShortText();
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
     System.out.println("Old Columns: " + txtF.getColumns());
     txtF.setColumns(20);
     frame.pack();
     System.out.println("New Columns: " + txtF.getColumns());

How to change the length of time calendar retains appointments

On my previous Blackberry running OS7, I was able to change the length of time the calendar kept appointments, but I can't find that setting on my Q10. I would like to be able to keep appointments on the calendar indefinitely. Thanks for any advice.

Hello, metallifan15,
Welcome to the discussions.
I think you are asking about the durations for subtitles. There is a maximum duration for titles, and that duration varies depending on which title you select. For just 'subtitle' it appears that the maximum duration is about 4secs20frames, 4:20. If you choose 'Stripe subtitle' the duration is about 8 seconds, 8:00.
If you want the durations to be longer, consider getting some of GeeThree's Slick volumes, some of whose titles can be placed for 30 seconds.

How to change infoobject descriptions in a query after change the infoobjec

Hi all,
Imagine that you have 200 queries in production and need to change some descriptions in 2 infoobjects. eg:
Infooject 1 = "Customer Sales View"
Changed to "Cust.View of New MKT"
Infooject 2 = "Material for sales"
Changed to "Material"
Is there any way to change all queries automatically ? Via Report or Function or Transaction ?
Suggestions ?
Best Regards,
Mauro.

Hello Madhukar,
We recently had upgraded to NW2004s and in few queries even when I login with different language for instance Portugese the infoobject descriptions still show up in english and are not changed.
Can you please let me know if I need to update the RSZELTXT table along with other tables. If so can you please forward me the ABAP Code in order to do the same.
Your help would be really appreciated if you can reply promptly as our UAT is pending on this issue.

Impact on Changing Infoobject Length

Hi all,
I have a requirement to increase the length of a navigation attribute BUSINESS OWNER from 5 to 10 ,BUSINESS OWNER is a navigation attribute of 0CUSTOMER, now my quetion is by increaing length will it be any impact on 0CUSTOMER, CUBES and Multiproviders,I tested in test system it is not showing any impact please suggest ??
Thanks
Nag

Hi Nag,
in general you do need to delete data from IO you want to enlarge/reduced its length. You have to just run TA RSMDEXITON right after the change is done. This TA does filling/deleting of leading zeros/characters for particular IO. Notice that if IO is referenced in other IO they will affected as well. All objects that are using those IOs will be inactivated. This includes InfoProviders (cubes, dsos, ..) and all the transformations, rules that are involved within flows...
It is not easy to get it all working after such a change.

FCP X - How to change the length of a project

Hi everyone,
Have been working on a music video in FCP X. I'm at the stage now where the cut is done, and I want to proceed to do a little color grading and then final export. I have a strange problem that I can't seem to get around, and the manual (if you could even call it that) is decidedly unhelpful on this front.
When I started working on the video, I placed the song in the primary storyline and had it copied three times along the way. This was so I could have extra "versions" of the song later in the timeline to test out ideas.
Now that I'm nearly done, I've deleted the extra copies of the song that were appended at the end, and they've been replaced with gap slugs. Nothing I seem to do can make them go away, I select them and hit delete, and they just stay there. So then when I export my video, because FCP X doesn't allow you to do anything other than export the _entire_ project, I end up with like 8 extra minutes of black at the end, which I then have to delete from my final QT movie. Obviously it's a surmountable problem, but it's just really annoying.
Anyone know how I can actually tell FCP X where the end of my project is?
Cheers!

Hey, thanks for both the responses.
I had tried using both delete keys (the one next to the "=" key and the one that actually says "delete" on the extended keyboard, but no dice. I also tried the suggestion of dragging a clip onto the gap and then deleting it, no luck either.
But then these suggestions made me think of trying another approach - I selected the gap clip in question and then went into the "edit" menu in the menu bar, and chose "delete" from there. That did the trick. And in doing so, I saw that the keystroke that's marked next to this command in the edit menu is "shift delete" (the delete is shown as the backward pointing box with an x in it). This also explains why I never seemed to be able to delete an effect that I added to a clip (I was always just deactivating them), because neither of the delete keys on their own were the right key command.
So I don't know if the key commands on my install of FCP X just happen to be set up in a different way to others, or I simply didn't realize that while simply hitting "delete" for clips was sufficient, you needed to use a different "delete" key cluster for other classes of items like gaps and effects.
Anyway, got it sorted now. Cheers for the input!

How to change the length of massage line

Good afternoon everyone, The message line only shows the first 80 characters of error messages. The message line on the window is large enough to hold 150 characters.

My is the same as your. If this has nothing to do with Oracle Forms built-in options (message line length), then there are definitely something wrong with my code.

You should be able to recored much longer than that. Try clearing some space, i.e. remove other videos, pictures, movies, large apps, etc.

How to change length of line in Photoshop CS3

I must be being really stupid, but I can't find out how to change the length of a line I've drawn in PS using the line tool. Can anyone help me out?

Which type of line did you draw?
Filled pixels, Shape Layer or Path?
If filled pixels, then it's just like with any other pixelsyou have to erase them, or or make a selection and delete them. To lengthen, you'll have to use the Transform function.
If you created your line as a Shape Layer or as a plain path, they are both defining the line as vector elements. If you look very closely, you'll see that the line is actually a thin rectangle-shaped patha boxif you will.
In this case you can use the Path Selection Tool to select two of the anchor points and move them manually, or you can select the entire path and then use the Transform Path function (Command + T) and input values in the Options Bar to transform the points numerically.

How to change the lenth of existing field in sap standard table

Hi all,
can anybody help,my requirement is, how to change the length of existing field in sap standard table....
thanks in advance..

Which field are you thinking of in particular? Are you wanting to increase or decrease the length?
Some fields are used so extensively that a change to their length will mean adjusting many tables, some of them potentially very large, and hence taking a long time to adjust.
Some standard SAP programs expect certain fields to be of specific lengths and won't work if the length is changed.
Some screens could cease to work.
If you decrease length, then you could lose data.

How to change BI Content InfoObject (move Lowercase letter mark) and transp

Hello,
1. Do you know how to change the business content infoObject by moving the mark "lowercase letter" for the characteristic (no master data) so that i can transport it in PROD.
When i tried to change it, the message i recieve is, that i have to delete the SID table. And when i want to delete the SID table, i reciéve the message that, the table content data, and that the data in the table have first to be deleted. And also, i cannot delete data in the SID table.
Actually, and by trying to resolve the problem, i see that the infoObject is NOW on "REVISED",....
2. Normally, i have to change the infoObject by removing the "lowercase letter Mark", so that by the activation, it can be transferred to a transport order i created in Solution manager PROD. But the infopackage and transformation and datasource i created before did not, give a posssibility to save this in the transport order.
3. How can i change the activated Business Content infoObject (now on REVISED) and transfer it to the transport order i created in Solution manager Prod. For example, i created a logical system in SPRO and could transfer it to the transport order, but in RSA1, by creating the objects, no dialog to transfer the Z-Bi created objects in transport ORDER is displayed.
My most important problem here is the change for the INFOOBJECT, save the change in transport order, and transport it in productiv.
4. One more question, is to know what happen with old request data in PROD infocube, after i transport the change infoObject in PROD?
Do you know how to resolve the problem?
Kind regards and many thank for helping
Arnaud

Hi,
Did you try Delete Master Data on the right click of your Infoobject? Since your infoobject is already loaded with data, it does not allow you to change the definition. You need to delete data completely from the infoobject and change the lower case letter.
You can only transport the Active version but not revised version.
Try deleting tables in SE14 t-code.

Suman

How can I change the length of multiple lines at the same time?

This just seems like it should be a no-brainer, but obviously for me it isn't. I'm trying to change the length of multiple lines, that are at different angles, at the same time, in CS4. Basically, I design the face of dials used for airplane instrument gauges (like RPM, Torque, etc), and they have gradiation marks (lines) located all around, similar what a clock looks like with the hour and minute gradiation marks (lines). Is there a way to select all the lines, that I know are the same length, and change it to a different length, that's accurate to the 1/100th of an inch? It would just be like selecting multiple lines that have all the same stroke, then using the stroke box to change the stroke weight from .025in to .030in.
I've used the transform box to change the 'height' of a line before, but the line has to be at 90 degrees (straight up and down), and that won't work for the lines that are at, say, a 45 degree angle.
I hope i'm explaining this in a way that someone will understand. If not, I can sure try to clarify more, or insert the picture so you could see what i'm talking about.
Thanks for any help you can give!

OK, after fiddling around with everyone's ideas, I think I finally got it. I knew there had to be something with proportions between W and H, but couldn't figure out the math, until Jacob answered with:
"If each line must be strecthed from the inner/outer end, you may select each and use the Transform palette, choosing the right Reference Point, multiplying by the proportion in W or H (1.75/1.5), and Ctrl/Cmd clicking."
Now, I basically did everything above, (but I couldn't figure out what you were talking about with the Ctrl Clicking thing), except after figuring out the right proportion (which ends up being so small you guys would die if I told you the number; the numbers I gave earlier were just an example and much larger than what i'm really working with) I just clicked the little chain next to the W and H boxes to constrain the proportions. I then put the new number (multiplied proportion by whatever was in W) in the W box. The line lengthened perfectly toward the center of the dial, keeping the correct angle!
And Harron-Thanks for the link to Teri's, It is going to help with some things I do, but most of the dials I design don't have equal distances between each gradiation mark, and the blueprints I work off of usually have exactly what distances that the grad. marks are supposed to be. So, after selecting one of my grad marks that is already at it's correct place, I then use the rotate tool and Alt-Clicking the very center of the dial, I can then put in exactly what distance I want the next grad. mark to be at, I hit copy (instead of OK) and there will be a new grad. mark exactly the correct distance from my original. Then if I want to have the 3rd grad. mark I just hit Ctrl-D and it will copy another mark to the next position. I don't know if you necessarily wanted to know all that, but i thought i'd explain why I like doing it that way.
A BIG thanks to everyone! I'm really a AI newbie and am the only one at my company that knows how to use it, so I don't have anyone close to ask stupid questions to. So I appreciate all your help!

How do I change the length of a column in the metadata?

A very simple package, reads data from SQL Server and FTPs it to a destination. I have zero experience with SSIS.
I had to add a new column (HEA_ID) to the input and output. The output record has a filler at the end (I hope you know what a filler is) and the new column has to go before the filler and the filler length reduced accordingly.
Problem: there is no apparent way to place the new column anywhere but after the Filler. The filler in the metadata is the wrong length and there is no way that I can see to change the length.
There is a yellow exclamation mark on the Flat File destination (where the filler is wrong length)
I get these erros when I run the updated package.
"The external metadata column is out of sync with the data source column. The column 'HEA_ID' needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection".
"The column filler needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection"
I have no idea how to fix these errors. Help needed.

Hi AllTheGoodNamesWereTaken,
According to your description, you add a new column HEA_ID and make some changes in filler column in the External Columns, so those two columns are out of sync with the data source column.
Please note that columns are created based on the data source columns. So we couldn’t directly change them in the Flat File Destination Advanced Editor.
To avoid this error message, just as Visakh said, just review mappings once again in the Flat File Destination. If we want to change the columns in the Flat File Destination, we need change the source columns.
Thanks,
