How to enter value not included in LOV

When I use an LOV, I'd like to be able to key-in a value not in the LOV. Can I get there from here?

I'm beginning to wonder if this is possible, since LOV's are built with 'display' and 'return' values and a dynamic user keyed value doesn't have a corresponding 'return' value, eh?
So... can anyone verify for me that LOV's will ONLY accept values existing on the LOV at time of population? If so, is there another way to provide a list of potential selection values while still providing the option of a user key-in not found on the list?
hm-m-m-m?? ;o)

How to enter values to a database table with data type 'LCHR'?

Hello All,
I have created a database table with five fields, of which the last field is 'Value' field in which i have to enter text with a maximum of 1000characters. I have also specified a 'Length' field preceding the 'Value' field.
The datatype specified for the 'Length' field is 'INT2' and for the value field is 'LCHR' with length 1000.
When i tried inserting values to the table through a report, the report is giving an error that 'Literals that take up more than one line are not permitted', which means 255characters.
Also, when i entered a short text which is less than 250 characters to the 'Value' field,, the report is working fine and the table entry is visible.
Can anyone help me in this?
It would be really helpful if you explain how to use 'LCHR' data type in tables and how to enter values to such a field with more than 255characters.
Thanks in Advance,
Shino

Hi shino,
Alternatively,
you can use STRING instead of LCHR.
I too have tried with LCHR and am facing the same issue.. i am not sure why its coming..
i have tried STRING and its working perfectly.
wa-key_field = 'IN4'.
CONCATENATE 'Long text over 200 chars length '
              'another Long text over 200 chars length '
              'another Long text over 200 chars length '
              INTO wa-long_text.
wa-len = strlen( wa-long_text ).
INSERT zshino_table from wa.
SELECT * FROM zshino_table INTO table it.
clear wa.
LOOP AT it INTO wa.
      WRITE:/ wa-len, ' ' , wa-long_text.
ENDLOOP.
Also, remember to set the type of the database field as String.
hope this was of some help,
thanks and regards,
Sagar.

How to enter values in Descriptive flexfield by WEB ADI

Hi All,
I am using GL-Journals as an integrator for uploading data using WEB ADI. I have DFF at Journal lines. There is Context Field value and also 3 lines(Attributes). I can enter the data by clicking the Line DFF Context and Line DFF manually. The entered values are shown as concatenated values in this cell. But the data is in different columns in excel file. I want to map the data from excel(which is in different cells) to this one column in the WEB ADI template.
Does any one know how to map this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Pramod.

Hi All,
After couple of investigations, I understood that it is not possible to map and upload DFF Values unless you concatenate the data. We all know it used to work in client ADI. I have found these documents 1072689.1 and Bug 8469705.
If someone knows any workaround please let me know.
Thank you,

How to enter values in JList box and JTable ???

Hi friends...
i am new to Swing
SInce i am using Netbeans IDE 5.5
and there is easy to do swing programming using this IDE
now i am confused using JTable and JList box
since i used method Insert in AWT
but how to add values in LIST BOX ( JList )
ex.
JList list = new JList( );

when i write here this, gives error.
what to do to insert string or vector or object in JList
and to enter value in JTable
THanks

hi Ghanshyam,
i am also new to swing i was just wondering are you using the swing palette to create your interface
by the look of the code
JList list = new JList( );
list.add(mystringvalue, ? );you may not be because every JList is put in a JScrollPane
but if you do want to do it through the palette there is an option in properties - model which you can uses to add in values.
and if your looking to get info. from a database look up
AbstractListModel &
AbstractTableModel
the is a lot of info on the internet (example net beans CarTableModel) is a
good start off
happy hunting.

How to enter values for newly inserted field for maintenace view table

Hi ,
I have inserted new field for custom table which consits of maintance view..
I want to put some values in to this newly inserted field..
When i try to insert values bu useing se16,iam unable to view this newely inserted field..
Can you please let me know how can i insert values to this newely created field
Thanx,
Parnith

Hi Parnith,
It is easy to use a table maintainance to enter values to a database table....
if you have a table maintainace generator and you are not able to see the newly added field here is the reason
Everytime you add a new field , the table maintainance needs to be regenerated..The reason is that the screen you are using in the table maintainance is created within a program with respect to the fucntion group and not directly linked to the table..whenever you change the table,the function group is not affected and changes are not reflected in the table maintainance , so you have to regenerate by utilities-> table maintainance generator in sell for that table..once you do it , the function group assigned to the table automatically creates a new one with the latest fields added

Drop-down values - get only VALUE, not including its description!

Hello
I am developing a VISITOR info adobe interactive form from webdynpro ABAP.
I have created the context with referring a DDICs custom structure (at this moment there is no child nodes), i put some drop-down (DD) fields on the form and binded with context's attribute. And am populating this drop-down attribute with list values, as below,
    wa_element-text = wa_DD_entry-zalue.
    wa_element-value = wa_DD_entry-z_value_description.
    APPEND wa_element TO it_elements.
       CALL METHOD node_info->set_attribute_value_set
        EXPORTING
          name      = 'COUNTRY'
          value_set = it_elements.
When user drops-down the list for this COUNTRY srop-down field, the entries are cisible like below (with VALUE and VALUE_DECCRIPTION),
US - USA
CA - Canada
FR - France
They are coming into the form okay, but, when user selects any entry, then, as a WHOLE its populating into the drop-down field! say, for example, if user selects FR, the drop-down field is populating with FR - France!!
But, i want just 'FR' should be populated in the field, not including its description! like our SEARCH HELPS in SAP
Pls. let me know how can i get it?
Thank you.

Tom:
It's possible, but complicated. You need to look into the field definition where we store the listbox contents. Then you can correlate the display item from the bound item. I've done this before in another context. I've appended the script I used.

How to export and NOT include metadata or EXIF data

When I export versions, each photo has the metadata included. How do I export without any information in the photo?
Any exported photo I do and you open it in EXIF Viewer, all the camera info, exposure etc… is all there.
I export to JPG from NEF D300 files.

In the "Export Presets" you can de-select the option "Include metadata" at the top of the window. If you want to then you could create a new preset that does not include your metadata, so that you have one with and one without metadata.
When you export your files then be sure to select the correct preset.

2 Question,

Thanks

Hi
You can create a search for that field with more than one fields and yu can add the search help for that field
see the doc
1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
CREATION:
Go to SE11 Tcode
select search help
give the 'z' search help name and create
select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'
dialog module 'display value immediately'.
add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.
where left position when displaying and spos = search position
and then save and activate ..

Urgent - Report Column based on LOV - Value not found in LOV

Hi All,
Recently, we have upgraded to HTMLDB 2.0 from HTMLDB 1.5.
I have a SQL report. One of the columns is based upon LOV - Display as Text (Based on LOV, does not save state).
For the "Ids" of the report, it should display the corresponding "Names" from the LOV.
But, for the cases, where no record exist in LOV for some Id, then it is directly showing the Id instead of "-" (which i have specified in Display Null Text) in the report column attributes.
Before upgrade, it was working fine.
Any idea where is the issue.
Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Monika

Hi,
Can anybody help me in sorting out this issue please.
For your reference, i have made a test case on
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=20451:4:3519837362944582:::::
Here, there are 2 tables
1. MY_EMP_COUNTRY(emoid, empname, cntry_id)
2. MY_COUNTRY_LOOKUP(id, name,active)
LOV is created on table 2
select name d, id r
from my_country_lookup
where active = 'Y'
And, on the page a SQL report is created
select empname, cntry_id
from my_emp_country
where, cntry_id is based upon the LOV.
Since, in lookup table, cntry_id = 4 is set inactive, it is not picked up by the LOV and hence on the report instead of showing the NULL text it is showing the cntry_id (4).
The attributes of report column cntry id -
Named LOV = CNTRY_LOV
Display Null = YES
NULL text = -
Display Extra Value = YES
Am I missing anything.
thanks,
Monika

How to enter values like SYSDATE in the Data Grid Editor

I would need to insert sysdate in a field via the Data editor.
When I do this, it replaces it by to_Date('sysdate', blabla...)
Is there a way to tell sqldeveloper sysdate is a key value (like :sysdate in forms) ?
Regards
Gilles

Sorry, I did not understand.
I just have a DATE field, which I want to update with the current date (sysdate).
How do I do that with sql developer and the data editor ?

Is there a way to not include zero values in sums and an average?

I'm working on a new performace evaluation & would like to sum the score of each line, then get an average of the total scores.
example: stength (1 value), Solid Performer (2 value), Performer (3 value), Recommend Development (4 value), N/A (zero value) then a total score of all the values, not including the zero value.
Then an average score of all the scores given.
Hope this makes sense!
Thanks in advance for the input!!!

If you use the calculation option "The field is the ____ of the following fields:", nulll values and zero values are included as zero and the number of number of items use is the number of fields selected.
If you want a different calculation, then you will have to write a custom script to sum and count the fields you want to include in the calculation.
