How to get access to Row Data (Child Text) in a Tree Control Pragmatically?

In LabVIEW 2010, I have entered Row Data into a Tree Control pragmatically using the Add Item method and providing the Child Text array and the Child Tag for the Row. When a Row in the Tree Control is selected, I can get the Row Tag in the Value Property of the Tree. But how do I access the Child Text array data when the Row is selected? I can't seem to find a Tree Control Property or Method that will return that data back again.
What I am trying to do is: once a Row in a Tree is selected and a button is pushed, if the Row Tag is valid, I want to transfer all of the Row data into another similarly formatted Tree. To do that I need the Row Data for the Tree and Row that was selected. I can not find a way to get access to this Row Data after it has been entered into the Tree.
Can anyone tell me how to pragmatically access the Child Text or Row Data in a Tree Control from a selected Row in the Tree? I have the Tag for the Row, but how do I access the data?
Thanks for your assistance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As mentioned in the posting here, you can use the Active Item:Tag property to set the item to which subsequent property changes apply. This includes pulling the Active Celltring values out in a for loop as you increment the Active Cell:Active Column Number to get the row's Child Text data programmatically as I was originally wanting to do.
Note that wiring a 0 to the ActiveColNum property and reading the String value will return the tree item's visible name (in column 0), but not the unique item Tag (which is somewhat intangible after its creation). Therefore, I save the unique item tag when I add the item to the tree control (the output of the Add Item invoke node) and store it as a separate column of the Child Text array and place it out of sight in the tree control so I have access to it later. It might be useful, it might not.
I find the tree control totally non-intuitive and not well explained anywhere, but that's how a lot of LabVIEW coding is I guess. Play with it long enough and you become an expert. I had to learn the hard way, but I hope this helps someone else.

How to get all items under a parent item in a tree control

Hello,
I have 2 questions regarding a tree control:
1) Is there any way to specify a parent item tag and get an array of ALL its sub item tags? For example, in the attached vi, specify the Parent#2 parent tag and get an array containing Item#P21 and Item#P22
2) Is there a way to specify a range to the ActiveCell property. For example, all items from line#1 to line number#3
Any ideas?

Did you try a search? There's no direct way of doing this. You have to navigate the tree and build up an array. You can find an example here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/get-all-children-of-a-parent-in-tree/td-p/729548
2) Is there a way to specify a range to the ActiveCell property. For example, all items from line#1 to line number#3
No. (It's called ActiveCell, not ActiveCells) Presumably you are trying to perform an operation on multiple items. Unfortunately, you need to use a loop. You should defer panel updates if you're doing this a lot.

How do get access to Interaction Data programmatically

First let me outline what I am trying to do and what my current restrictions are.
Captivate Version: 5 and 6 (but really only 6, they are in the process of upgrading everything to 6)
What I need:
- Access to the Quiz's interaction data for each question.
- I would like to have access to it utilmately in JavaScript.
Restrictions:
- The CBTs are hosted on a SharePoint site that I cannot modify, other than what is possible as a site admin (so no Internal server reporting)
- An LMS is also not an option
My current setup:
I created an aspx page in SharePoint to load the desired Captive file by query string. I created a JavaScript file to help me communicate with Captivate and capture the basic quiz results (pass/fail, total points, unanswered quiestions, etc) using the cpEIGetValue method. My JavaScript results function (SubmitQuiz()) is called from the Captivate file on either a submit results button click or the OnPass/OnFail events. With the result data in JavaScript, I then post (ajax) the results to a SharePoint list using the List web service.
I know I can get each question's answer by having the captivate call a JavaScript method on question submit, but I was trying to avoid that (it means a fair amount of updates to each CBT), and even then I don't think that will give me access to all the interaction data that is provided when you use the internal server reporting method. Captivate is clearly tracking the data that I want, I just can't find a good way to get to it.
I have spent a decent amount of time researching this and any help with this will be greatly apperiated.

Erik -
Thanks for your reply!
I assumed the internal server meant local server or at least server on the same network, either way that is not an option for me. The CBTs are in SharePoint, which we don't control and would not be allowed to put an aspx page or other handler to process the post and we arent allowed to setup a service or page somewhere to post to. Unless if the CBT can post across the internet to a remote server, then its a no go.
I thought have the SCROM approach and rewriting it all, but I have limited time for this and that just looked like a big headache. I have read the posts on piperworks that show you how to clean up the code, I may have to revisit it at some point, if they really want me to.
I will also see if I can modify the CP calls back to the API, do you know where those are made? Or are they just the OnSuccess/OnLastAttempt actions on the quiz? If so, that is the solution I ended up going with.
Using the JavaScript API, user variables and some advanced actions on the OnEnter/OnSuccess/OnLastAttempt I was able to get pretty much all the interaction results that are stored. The only ones I could not seem to get, were the ObjectiveID, InteractionID and the CorrectReponse. However, instead of InteractionID I am now using the slide name. I put a Advanced Action on the OnEnter event of the slide, which is used to set a user variable (v_QuestionStartTimeMS) to cpInfoElaspedTime. By doing so I can calculate the latency in the OnSuccess/OnLastAttempt events (v_QuestionTimeLengthMS = cpInfoElaspedTimeMS - v_QuestionStartTimeMS). The rest of the OnSuccess/OnLastAttempt advanced action calls a JS method. OnSuccess passes true, OnLastAttempt passes false to the TrackResult function.
I am using the jQuery extend method to load objItem.
$.Results.GetDate() gives my the date as a string. MM/DD/YYYY
$.CapHelper.GetVariable() a wrapper method I have that ends up calling cpEIGetValue()
$.Results.GetTimeStr() converts MS to HH:MM:SS.mmm string format.
function TrackResult(result) {
    var objItem = $.extend({}, $.Results.Objs.ResultQuest, {
        ResultDate: $.Results.GetDate() + " " + $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpInfoCurrentTime"),
        SlideName: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpInfoCurrentSlideLabel"),
        InteractionID: "",
        ObjectiveID: "",
        InteractionType: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoQuestionSlideType"),
        CorrectResponse: "",
        StudentResponse: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice"),
        IsCorrect: result,
        Weight: $.CapHelper.GetVariable("cpQuizInfoPointsPerQuestionSlide"),
        Latency: $.Results.GetTimeStr($.CapHelper.GetVariable("v_QuestionTimeLengthMS"))
    _objResultDetails.push(objItem);
I was hoping for a more elegant solution where I could just get all the data at the end of the quiz, like the internal server reporting option and send it all back at once. Captivate is clearly tracking all that data, it would be nice if they exposed it so you could do what you want with it.
Again, thanks for your input Erik. I will look into what you suggested as time permits.

It is nothing at all like a table. It cannot be indexed, partitioned, cluster, etc. It does not exist in the SQL engine as an object that can be referenced. It resides in expensive PGA memory and needs to be copied (lock, stock and barrel) to the SQL engine as a bind variable.
It is an extremely primitive structure - and should never be confused as being just like a table.
Its use in SQL statements is also an exception to the rule. Sound and valid technical reasons need to justify why one want to push a PL/SQL array to the SQL engine to run SELECT 's against it.

Accessing Datagrid row data from within an itemRenderer

I would like to know how I can access another row's data from within an itemRenderer. I need to do some formatting of my cells based on other row data. Here's what I mean... I have a datagrid and in row 0 col 2's itemRenderer I would like to access row 1 col 1's data in order to do a comparison so I can determine how to format row 0 col 2's data and so on. Is there a way from within the item renderer to reach into another row and access the data? I can't seem to find a clear answer so I thought I'd go to the pro's.
Thanks!!

You can use this code to get to the dataProvider of the grid.
var o:Object = this.parent.parent;
var dp:Object = o.dataProvider;

ICloud storage space used up by old data from 1st gen iPad I traded in nearly 2 yrs ago for an iPad Mini. Can't backup any info for mini or new 6 plus. How can I access this old data to clear it out?

My iCoud storage space is being used up by old data from a 1st generation iPad I traded in nearly 2 yrs ago for an iPad Mini. The people at the sprint store where I made my trade were supposed to transfer everything over from my old iPad to the new Mini once they backed up the old device to iCloud. Well, long story short, none of the data ever got transferred to the new iPad, but it all got backed to iCloud, eating up all my storage space. Here I am almost 2 years later, and I've never been able to back-up my iPad mini. What's worse, My iPhone 4 wasn't backed up that whole time, and now I can't back-up my data from my new iPhone 6 Plus to iCloud either. Trying to find creative ways to store and save my information and data between all my devices is getting to be ridiculous. I don't want to upgrade my storage space though...just want to clear out a great deal of what is already being stored. How can I access this old data to clear it out?

The only way to access data from an iCloud backup is to restore it to your device. You could, for example, back up your iPad mini to your computer using iTunes (by connecting it, opening iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Back Up and choosing to back up apps and transfer purchases when prompted), then erase it and restore the old iPad backup (as explained here: iCloud: Restore or set up your iOS device from iCloud), save any recovered data you want to keep, then restore your iTunes backup back to your iPad mini (by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Restore from Backup).
Once you're done with the old backup, delete it from your account to free up the space.

How to get count of rows for a table?

Hi,
How to get count of rows for a table and secondly, how can i have access to a particular cell in a table?
Regards,
Devashish

Hi Devashish,
WdContext.node<Your_node_name>().size() will give you the no: of rows.
This should be the node that is bound to the table's datasource property.
WdContext.node<Your_node_name>().get<node_name>ElementAt(index_value); will select the row at that particular index.
You can access an attribute of a particular row as
WdContext.node<Your_node_name>().get<node_name>ElementAt(index_value).get<attribute_name>();
Hope this helps,
Best Regards,
Nibu.

How to get number of rows return in SELECT query

i'm very new in java, i have a question:
- How to get number of rows return in SELECT query?
(i use SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC and everything are done, i only want to know problems above)
Thanks.

make the result set scroll insensitve, do rs.last(), get the row num, and call rs.beforeFirst(), then you can process the result set like you currently do.
         String sql = "select * from testing";
         PreparedStatement ps =
          con.prepareStatement(sql,ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
         ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
         rs.last();
         System.out.println("Row count = " + rs.getRow());
         rs.beforeFirst();~Tim
NOTE: Ugly, but does the trick.

How to get the user entered data?

Hi all,
I have created an HTMLB DynPage component.
In That i have created my input screen with textboxes using response.write method.
i have added one onConfirm event on which the data whould validate.
so onConfirm method im trying to get the data with request.getParameter method which returns null...
how to do...how to get the user entered data to do my validations...can anyone plz advice.
Thanks,
Viswes

Hi
inputfield or textbox component entered directly using response.write(...) are not htmlb , but html.
to create portal input field (ie HTMLB), you should do something like
this in the doProcessBeforeOutput member function
InputField field1 = new InputField("Id1");
field1.setSize(8); // 8 characters
this.getForm().addComponent(field1);
and in doProcessAfterInput member function
InputField field1 =
(InputField) this.getComponentByName("Id1");
you can then manipulate the content of the field.
Hope this help,
Guillaume

Hi Paul,
I'm now able to save the retrieved xml in a hidden text field and create dynamic table, and I'm able to fill this table from the XML, but the problem is that I could not find the correct way to loop on the xml, what I'm trying to say, the table will have number of rows with the data of the first row only, so can you tell me the right way to loop on the xml!
this is my code
TextField1.rawValue=xmlData.document.rawValue;
xfa.datasets.data.loadXML(TextField1.rawValue, true, false);
for(var i=0; i<count; i++)
xfa.form.resolveNode("form1.P1.Table1.Row1["+i+"].Num").rawValue = xfa.datasets.data.record.num.value;
xfa.form.resolveNode("form1.P1.Table1.Row1["+i+"].Name").rawValue = xfa.datasets.data.record.name.value;
Table1.Row1.instanceManager.addInstance(true);
