How to limit a LoVs in CR???

Good day everyone:
I'am creating a report in Crystal Reports that uses a list of values, everyting works "fine" but there are 2 issues.
1.- The report takes a lot of time to load the information.
2.- The list of values is to big and when the user try to see it only see a few values.
This LoVs is generated from a View created in SQL.
My questions are:
1.- Is possible to limit the numbers of items that teh user can see in te list of values?? for example to see 20 or 30 items and by adding a scroll see the others.
2.- Can you give me options to solve the performance issue??
I hope you can help me.
Thanks and regards.

1) The default limit for the LoV is 1000 but can be modified in the registry.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV\MaxRowsetRecords
You can also alter the SQL View if you want to limit the available values.
As far as changing the number of rows the user sees in the LoV drop down before they have to start scrolling... There is no way to change this.
2) Performance issues can be the the result of any number of things... You haven't provided any information that we could a base recommendation on. It's kinda like asking "Why won't my car go fast?"

How to create a LOV where it is constrained by another field

I'm trying to figure out how to get a LOV to be limited by the value in a column
A complete hypothetical example (the actual app is quite different):
I have 2 tables
clientInfo, with fields fname, lname, age, city, zipcode
In another table named cityZip I have zip & city
So I create a report on a table form
select fname, lname, age, city, zipcode from clientInfo
This generates a nice table form, one entry for each client.... but I want the user to go down the selectList which represents the city column and select the city for each record in the table.
So I created a Select List (query based LOV),
I tried
select DISTINCT (code|| ' ' || city) d, zip_KEY r
from cityZip where cityZip.zip = :zipcode
The problem appears that the use of zipcode in the LOV query does not contain the value of the current record's zipcode so it doesn't work! Does anyone have any idea's how this might be done?

Good morning,
The problem is that the data in your report is not contained in APEX items within your page. Try looking at the Form & Report combination and put your select list in the form. When you click "Edit" on a line, that data populates the form. You then have the information you need to limit the query for your LOV.
Good luck,
Don.

How to limit the max dialog no that one user can use at the same time?

Hi,
I meet one performance problem that one user can open 6 sessions in the GUI and he/she can run 6 reports at the same time witch could occupy 6 dialogs in the sap R/3 instance. It makes poor performance for other users.
Would you pls tell me how to limit the no. of sessions one user can create at the same time or how to limit the no. of dialogs one user can occupy at the same time?
Thanks a lot!
I used this parameters in the default profile as blew:
rdisp/rfc_check 1
rdisp/rfc_use_quotas 1
rdisp/rfc_max_own_used_wp 20 (means: 20%)
It still didn't work.
Sean

Hello,
We can reserve DIA W.P by giving value to the parameter :- rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp=1(default)
that have to necessarily remain free for other users.
This parameter is used to reserve a number of dialog work processes for Dailog mode.
For eg. If 10 dialog w.p. are configured for the instance(rdsip/wp_no_dia=10) and the parameter rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp=3 is set,parallel RFC's can occupy a maximum of 7 DIA W.P.3 DAI W.P. always remain free for dialog mode.
But now the question is how we assign/restrict this free dialog w.p. to the specific user.

How to limit the number of items in a KPI Status list web part?

How to limit the number of items in a KPI Status list web part? There is no paging option for Business Category Status list or any limit can be made by changing the Item limit in default view unlike other SharePoint List web parts. So How to achieve it?
Kindly help.

Hi,
According your post, I know you would like to set the item display limit in Status List web part.
In the web part, the number of items to display is based on the view which you selected when configuring the web part. The default view for status list is status list view.
However, I am not able to limit the items’ display number of the status list view. After changing the items limit, the list item displayed would not match the number specified by Item Limit. Thus, it is not possible to limit the number
of items in the Status list web part.
It could be a potential issue in SharePoint 2010.
We will log this issue to our suggestion box. As after the submission, we may not have any time guarantee when the fix may be released, but it may come out on next cumulative update.
Appreciate your time and efforts.
Thanks.

How to limit the number of items that a list control can hold?

Hi,
I am using a Flex3 List control for one of my projects.
I add drag & drop functionality to it, so that i can drag & drop elements from one control to another.
How to limit the number of items that a list control can hold / can be dropped in a list control ?
- Sen.

1. Listen for the dragdrop event on the control you are dragging onto.
2. check the length of the items in the dataprovider - if it exceeds your maximum override the default drop action with e.preventDefault(); (assuming you used e for the event on the handler).

How to limit the number of rows in a smart form , sap script.

Can anyone tell me how to limit the number of rows in the output of a sap script/smart form. I have tried "protect/endprotect" in sap script but have no idea of how to do in smart form. In sap script the only way it has happened is by reducing the size of the main window.

Hi,
In Smartform also, why dont you try reducing the size of the window if you want to limit the rows in it. Also if you are printing Line Items in a LOOP, you can write
LOOP AT T_ITAB FROM 1 TO N in the LOOP Node if you know how many records exactly you want to display in 1 Page processing.

Thanks Thomas, excellent suggestions as always.
If anybody wants more information regarding Thomas' suggestions please refer to
Oracle9i OLAP Developer's Guide to the OLAP DML for the AW Permit command.
In sumamry: To create permission programs, you define two programs with the names permit_read and permit_write. In these programs, you can specify PERMIT commands that grant or restrict access to individual workspace objects. In addition, you write these programs as user-defined functions that return a Boolean value, and the return value indicates to Oracle OLAP whether or not the user has the right to attach the workspace.
For relational security there is an excellent tutorial on the database pages of OTN, follow this link:
http://otn.oracle.com/obe/start/index.html
then follow the links for Oracle9i Database Release 9.2.0.2 - Security - Creating Label-based Access Control. This module describes how to use Oracle Label Security to setup security based on label policies
These security layers should be transparent to the OLAP metadata layer, therefore, once you have implemented your chosen security method your BI Beans application will only need to connect with the appropriate user to inherit the security layer.

How to display three LOVs for a single label name

I have requirement to display three LOVs in a form which needs to be displayed side by side (instead of each item in a separate column). The name is common for all three cascaded LOVs and also I have other apex items in the same form displayed as two apex items per each row. The display format is something like ..
Item1: Tex field Item2: Text field
Item3: Radio button Item4: Text Field
Item5: Text Area
Item6 : LOV1 LOV2 LOV3
any ideas are appreciated.
thanks,
Surya

Surya:
This is easy to do. Here's how
Define the first LOV as you would normally.
For the second and third LOVs set the following attributes
Label : Leave Empty
Begin On New Line:NO
Field:NO

How the handle the LOV in oracle forms 10g

Hi All,
Could anyone can tell how to handle the LOV error in blocks as no data is there in db..while clicking on button, the LOV message is getting continously and its not allowing me to close the screen, this makes me to forcefully close the applicaiton...
please suggest how to handle this..
Regards,
Badri.

You should ask this in the Forms forum (this is the Reports forum) and when doing that, mention your Forms version etc. Also, explain what you mean by this:
LOV error in blocks as no data is there in dbWhat error do you get? An LOV can return no records without a problem, so you probably did not use standard LOV funtionality.
while clicking on buttonWhat is the code behind this button?

How to limit numbers of rows in a sortable table

Hi,
I created a table that shows the first 25 of over 200.000 rows. This table is sortable. That means that I cant use the topN function to restrict the total numbers of rows.
Is there any chance mabe by using the advanced tab to limit the rows.

How to limit threads in a Java QuickSort algorithm.

With the following piece of code, I quickly run into OutOfMemory exceptions, since the code starts creating Threads exponentially. However, after waiting for a long time (for all the exception texts to print out, obviously making it slower than running it with one thread only), the program eventually ends with the correct result. Is there a way to run the code as is, but making sure that no more that x threads are running at a time?
things I have tried:
- sleeping the current thread - makes it slower than one-thread.
- looping blank while Thread.activeCount() > x - doesnt work at all
- suspending resuming threads based on the activeCount - doesnt work too
Code:
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class ThreadedSort extends Thread{
private ArrayList<Integer> _list;
     public ThreadedSort()
          _list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
     public ThreadedSort(ArrayList<Integer> List)
          _list = List;
     public void run()
          threadQuickSort();
public void threadQuickSort()
          try{
if (_list.size() < 2)
return;
Integer pivot = new Integer(_list.get(_list.size()-1));
          ArrayList<Integer> left = new ArrayList<Integer>();
          ArrayList<Integer> right = new ArrayList<Integer>();
//ListIterator iter = arr.listIterator();
          // *** optimize here
for (int i = 0; i < _list.size()-1; i++) {
               Integer next = (Integer)_list.get(i);
               if (next <= pivot)
                    left.add(next);
               else
                    right.add(next);
          ThreadedSort LeftThread = new ThreadedSort(left);
          ThreadedSort RightThread = new ThreadedSort(right);
//          System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName()+" --> "+Thread.activeCount());
//          Thread.sleep(4000);
          LeftThread.start();
          RightThread.start();
//          System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName()+" --> "+Thread.activeCount());
          LeftThread.join();
          RightThread.join();
          _list.clear();
          list.addAll(LeftThread.list);
          _list.add(pivot);
          list.addAll(RightThread.list);
          }catch (InterruptedException ie) { ie.printStackTrace(); }
          return;
public static void main(String[] args) { ///////////////////////////////////////////

          try{
          FileWriter fout = new FileWriter("out.txt");
          BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(fout);
          before_populate = System.currentTimeMillis();
          for (int i = 0; i< 2000; i++){//***
               arr1.add(rand.nextInt(2000000));
          after_populate = System.currentTimeMillis();
          ThreadedSort sorter3 = new ThreadedSort(new ArrayList(arr1));
          before_threadedQuickSort = System.currentTimeMillis();
          sorter3.start();
          sorter3.join();
          after_threadedQuickSort = System.currentTimeMillis();
          bw.write("time for threadedQuickSort: " + (after_threadedQuickSort - before_threadedQuickSort)); bw.newLine();
          bw.newLine();
          arr1.clear();
          bw.close();
          }catch (Exception IOException){};
          System.out.printf("\n\n");
} //end of main
} //end of class

So you dont have to go thru the code:
Quicksort:
with one thread only I start the sorting by choosing a pivot from the initial list and then generating a left list (all values less then pivot) and a right list (all values greater then pivot).
then i recursively call quicksort with the left and right lists.
with one thread that works fine.
threadedQuickSort:
each thread object has a variable _list that keeps its list.
from the initial thread, i do generate again two lists (left and right) but then i construct two threadable objects with those lists and start them, creating for each list a new thread.
so each thread will create two new threads.
for a initial list with up to 2000 rows, that yields to the correct result although much slower than the one-threaded version. maximum number of threads ever used was around 500~600.
for a list with 20000 rows, my machine chokes at around 2600 threads. (OutOfMemory exception)
My Processor is a 8 core (each core can run up to two threads) giving me a total of 16 actual threads i can work with.
So the question is how to limit the threads that are created to 16. There is no method in the Thread class where you can specify the max number of threads in a threadgroup.
@ jverd:
I looked at ThreadPoolExecutor, but it looks kinda complicated. I see that the idea is creating a queue of jobs to be executed (which would be the different sublists (left and right lists), and then using the specified number of threads to work with the queued jobs, but im failing to understand how it works. Can you point to a simple example somewhere showing how to declare a ThreadPoolExecutor object and work with it. thanks
