How to handle the 'folder button' in the path command throug Event loop ?

Hi everybody.
Again a stupid question but I can't find the answer.
My VI has a dynamic event loop, to execute the right code depending on user action.
Everything is working well but now I wish to do the following :
I use a 'path command' with the path entry (like for text) and the folder button.
 the user click on the path entry     ->   something A happens.
 the user click on the folder button  ->   something B happens.
As the folder button and the path entry are the same command, how to differenciate those two events in the event structure ?
Maybe there is a value in the node, but I can't find it ...
Thanks for helping !

You can't do exactly what you are wanting to do. The problem is that you can't trigger an action based on clicking the browse button. To implement that you will need to hide the browse button that LV creates and put down a button of your own that you can then track and respond to independently.

  • How to handle the OK button of the parameters prompt of a crystal report

    Hi,
    how to handle the OK button of the parameters prompt of a crystal report in vba.NET?
    I want to use the parameter prompt from the crystal report itself and I want to know when the report is ready. I need to export programatically by sending email to a list of employees after the parameters has been set. The emails I send depends on the results of the report.
    Im using a CrystalReportViewer control  in VS2010 and Crystal Report for VS2010 v13.0.1.220.

    Right. But the parameter screen is driven by the viewer. Unless you create your own parameter screen and pass the parameters to the report via code.
    Another thing I am not sure about:
    "Then by code I want to read all the employees id from the report and send email to them with specified pages of the report. (1 page per employee)"
    How do you plan on reading the employee ID from the report? I am not aware of any API that will read a value in a report so that you can then decide what page to send to whom.
    I think you're approaching this kinda backwards. A question to ask is; can you do what you are trying to do in code in the CR designer? If not, using APIs will not work either. I suspect your approach should be a report that uses an employee filter. Run the report for employee x, get the report populated with the data for that employee and email it. Repeat for employee x1, employee x2, etc.

  • How to Enable the SAVE button in the Menu Bar of the Invoice Document.

    Hi.
    How to Enable the SAVE button in the Menu Bar of the Invoice Document as it is disabled for me.
    I would like to save the Invoice document in PDF  format.
    Regards
    Irfan

    Hi,
    Normally, for the archiving or generation of the invoice document in PDF format is handled by maintaining the output records through VV31/VV32 with the relevant printer, storage mode ( 3- print and archive or 2- archive only ), no. of messages ( means no of copies ) in the communication method.
    Then when you click the print button through VF03 in the print options pop-up you get a print at the physical printer and at the same time an archived copy ( PDF copy ) attached with the document.
    So, please make sure the output records are fine to allow a PDF copy generated and then try to print and check in VF03 by entering into the billing document.
    Hope this helps you.
    However, from the print preview you normally would not be allowed to save or print.
    Regards,
    Ram

    HI Vicky ,
                      if u want an interactive ALV report , there are lot of forums already having the solution for that , but let me give u the solution anyway.
    In the function module "REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY" , import parameters
         I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET          = 'FLIGHT'
         I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND           = 'BUTTON_CLICK'
    has to be supplied to this function module . The PF status is where u hav created the two buttons , that PF status has to be given here .If the user clicks on the button then it is handled by the form routines . Inside the sub-routine based on the button the user has selected u could perform the action.
    FORM FLIGHT    USING RT_EXTAB TYPE SLIS_T_EXTAB.
      SET PF-STATUS 'FLIGHT' EXCLUDING RT_EXTAB.
    ENDFORM.
    Here the "Flight" is the PF_status .
    FORM BUTTON_CLICK USING UCOMM type SY-UCOMM
                           SELFIELD type SLIS_SELFIELD.
      CASE UCOMM.
        WHEN 'BUTTON!' .
    write ur code for button 1.
      WHEN "BUTTON"
      *Write ur code for button2 .
    end case.
    endform.
    for any queries reply back.
    regards

    I just got my Ipad2 and have my email accounts set up.  I have sent messages but when I go to the folder icon at the top right of the page and tap on SENT emails it makes the inbox email on the screen disappear.  How do you check your sent emails?  Thanks for your help.

    You can send over WiFi, but it sounds as if you need to setup your Gmail account, or did you do this already?

  • I don't see the new "firefox button" and i can't see the bookmark button (with the drop down option) unless I'm in the customize toolbar view. How can I fix these?

    I am using Firefox 4.0 on Windows XP home, Service pack 3. I am trying to use some of the new features of Firefox 4.0 that I see on the Firefox feature page (http://mzl.la/gCFDjj) and am not having much luck. First off in the Firefox Button. It is supposed to contain all your menu items but it is not appearing on my screen. Is this a feature that only works in Vista or Windows 7?
    Second, I am trying to use the Bookmarks Button (the one that has the drop down menu) but it doesn't appear in my toolbar unless I right click the tool bar and choose "customize". The button shows up in this view already in the toolbar, as if it is hidden in normal use and no matter where I move it to, once I hit the "done" button in the customize window the Bookmarks Button gets hidden/covered up again.
    Third, I see the new "App Tabs" feature but I can't seem to find an option for this in the preferences for Firefox, if it's even supported by my browser/OS at all.
    Can anyone tell me how to use/activate these features or if I am even able to using Windows XP?

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You only see the Bookmarks menu button if the Menu bar is hidden.

    The AVG addon seems to have caused the problem for me. I had it disabled and everything worked. Then I updated to AVG 2011 and the problem occurred. It seems to have reenabled itself after the update.
    Just disabling it solved the problem.

  • How to disable the cancel button in the ProgressMonitor

    hi,
    I need to know, is there any way to disable/remove the (cancel)button in the ProgressMonitor?
    One more problem is,
    Once i click the cancel button, isCanceled() return true, how to make it false again so that the process continue....
    It is very urgently.....
    please help me out.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Deepa Raghuraman

    I don't think that's a good solution, because Cancel button itself is not disabled, so user is tempted to click it and nothing happens.
    A better but dangerous solution is this:
    progressMonitor = new ProgressMonitor(ProgressMonitorDemo.this,
                                         "Running a Long Task",
                                         "", 0, 100);
    progressMonitor.setMillisToDecideToPopup(0);
    progressMonitor.setMillisToPopup(0);
    progressMonitor.setProgress(0);
    JDialog dialog = (JDialog)progressMonitor.getAccessibleContext().getAccessibleParent();
    JOptionPane pane = (JOptionPane)dialog.getContentPane().getComponent(0);
    pane.setOptions(new Object[]{});Refer to the same question here [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/512151/how-do-i-disable-the-cancel-button-when-using-javax-swing-progressmonitor] .

  • How do I make a button onj the form which will submit and send the pdf as an email?

    how do I make a button on the form which will submit and send the pdf as an email?

    You can set up a button with a "Submit a form" action and use a mailto type URL to specify the email address you want the forms sent do. If you want to send the entire PDF, select that option and not FDF or anything else. The mailto URL should not include any spaces and the "mailto" part should be lowercase, like:
    mailto:[email protected]
    This will attempt to initiate an email using the users default email client. If the user does not have one set up or there is some other problem, the email might not get initiated. If it needs to work with Reader versions prior to 11, then the form needs to be Reader-enabled, which you do in Acrobat 11 by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools
