How to sort 2 dropdown boxes with joined context?

Hi Guys,
I have 2 dropdown boxes that are lined to the same table context.
I do the binding by using the one bind_table method.
one DD is showing the Key while the other shows the description. They both have the same binding.
once the user changes one, new data is selected and the drop downs show the key & description.
What I want to do is to sort each list to be ordered. one by keys and the other by descriptions.
How should I do that?
thanks,
Itay

Hi,
first,
I would like to mention that there is no joined solution to what I asked here, which is different than what you ask...
You have to make 2 context nodes if you want to sort the data different.
in a drop down, you can't display 2 separate columns.
The only thing you can do is to concatenate the key to the description, something like:
CA - Canada
US - USA
FR - France
if you need to present more than one column maybe it will be best to put a table and link it to some event...
I "solved" this issue by putting 2 drop downs. I wanted to allow the user to select a value from a list and then to change the screen according to his selection.
I did something like:
Choose by key: <dropdownbykey - Key column>
Choose by description: <dropdownbykey - Desc column>
I hope this helps...

How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?

How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?
I currently run OS X 10.10.1
Now i have been trying to work on this for a while now and what i want to do should be simple but its apparently not.
Here is an example of what i want to happen.
I will have 2 tabs: Contact | Sales
Now Contacts will have the list of names and various information about a customer, While Sales will have one drop-down box for each Cell Row that will show the names of the person in tab contacts
for what i am wanting to do i cant use the data format pop-up menu because the list is edited everyday several times a day.
Now how do i do this, Excel can do this so how can numbers do it?

Hi Shegra,
Paste this into a applescript editor window and run it from there. In the script you may need to adjust the four properties to agree with your spreadsheet. Let me know if you have any questions.

Script starts:
-- This script converts column A in one table into an alphabetized list of popups. It copies the last cell in that column. Then reverts the column to text. It then refreshes popups in column A of a data table starting with a user defined row.

How to Create a DropDown Box in a Selection Screen.

Hi,
I have a question. i.e, How to create a dropdown box in a Selection Screen. Could you please assist me.
Thanks & Regards
Sathish Kumar

hi satish,
The following can assist u to create a drop down ....
Drop down list box can be created in a dialog screen(SE51) as well as selection screen.
The sap list box allows to select a value from the list but we cannot enter our own value in the list box .The value list that will be displayed consists of two
fields TEXT field of TYPE 80(C) and internal KEY field of TYPE 40(C).
In screen painter to create a input/output field into list box we use
'L" as a value for dropdown attribute for the i/o field.
In screen painter to determine the type of method that will be used to fill the value
list we use the attribute value list.
If it is blank the value list will be filled by the first column of the input help assigned to the screen field.This input help can be defined in the ABAP Dictionary, on screen using SELECT,VALUES screen statements or in event POV (PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST ) and the input help that will be passed to the field should consists of 2 columns ,the key column is filled automatically by the system.SAP recommends value list field should be blank.
or
The value can be 'A' meaning that the value list will be filled in the event PBO(PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT) or before the screen is displayed.In this method we use function module VRM_SET_VALUES to fill the values and pass it to the i/o field.
If a function code is attached to the list box the selection of a value triggers a PAI
otherwise PAI will not trigger.
Example
Dropdown list boxes

Dropdown box with WAD 3.x

Hello,
I work with the WAD 3.x. And have the following problem:
On the WAD There is a dropdown box with the value of 0CALMONTH.
When I select a value I want two actions:
- To change a quer y on the same WAD.
- Build an url so i can open a second WAD with the selection of the dropdown box.
Both things can work, but not together.
The first point works as a default WAD dropdown box with the value of 0CALMONTH. The selection of the dropdown box is affected to the dataproviders(option of the dropdown box) to change the query.
For the second i use a HTML Form to capture the selected value:
<form name="frmState">   Kalenderjaar/maand
<select name="calmonth" class="SAPBexDdl" on change="window.location.href=SAP_BW_URL_Get() + '&datum=' + options[selectedIndex].value";>
<object>
         <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
         <param name="CMD" value="GET_ITEM"/>
         <param name="NAME" value="DROPDOWNBOX_1"/>
         <param name="ITEM_CLASS" value="CL_RSR_WWW_ITEM_FILTER_DDOWN"/>
         <param name="DATA_PROVIDER" value="DATAPROVIDER_21"/>
         <param name="GENERATE_CAPTION" value=""/>
         <param name="IOBJNM" value="0CALMONTH"/>
         <param name="BOOKED_VALUES" value=""/>
         <param name="SHOW_LABEL" value=""/>
         <param name="ONLY_VALUES" value="X"/>
         <param name="NO_REMOVE_FILTER" value="X"/>
         <param name="TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_1" value="DATAPROVIDER_2"/>
         ITEM:            DROPDOWNBOX_1
</object>
</select>
</form>
But here
<param name="TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_1" value="DATAPROVIDER_2"/>
Doesnu2019t work to change the value of the query on the same WAD>
Someone an Idea how to combinate this to selections?
Kind regards,

How can I create a box with the option of either a check or "N/A"?

Hi there guys, just a quick question which has been bugging me for days now!
I have a form in which I need to have a check box, but when the box is not checked I need it to show up as "N/A", is that possible?
I have tried using a dropdown box instead. Making one of the options a capital "P" and setting the font to Wingdings 2 makes it appear as a check. This however makes it impossible for me to type in "N/A" as the other option because the font is set to Wingdings 2!
Any help would be greatly appreciated
I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro on Windows 7
Thank you
Clint

Have you ever seen a paper form work this way?
Have you ever seen an electronic form work this way?
You can have a text field next to the check box that show "N/A" when the check box is not selected.
Or if you like to do a lot of coding, use a check box and then overlay the check box with a text box to display the "N/A" and you can work out how switch between the 2 fields if one wants to uncheck the item.

How to populate a dropdown box based on a selection in another Dropdown box.

I am trying to find out a way to do the following:
I am using coldfusion ....working on a form. The form has
couple of dropdown boxes. Based on the selection on the first
dropdown box another dropdown box needs to get populated with
different options. These options will be coming from a query. I am
trying to find out the Javascript code for doing this.
Thanks in advance.

jchopra,
There's a method to doing what you're wanting to do that I've
used extensively.
Basically, within my code, I start by invoking the method
that returns the data for the dropdown lists. Then, I use the
following code to pour the data returned into a javascript array:
var locArray = new Array(#evaluate(locs.recordcount+1)#);
locArray[0] = new Array('','','','','','','','','',);
<cfloop query="locs">
locArray[#locs.CurrentRow#] = new
Array('#JSStringFormat(locationId)#',
'#JSStringFormat(fkyPolicyId)#',
'#JSStringFormat(locationNumber)#',
'#JSStringFormat(description)#',
'#JSStringFormat(address1)#',
'#JSStringFormat(address2)#',
'#JSStringFormat(zipcode)#',
'#JSStringFormat(city)#',
'#JSStringFormat(state)#';
</cfloop>
Then I wrote a javascript function that is assigned to the
first dropdown's onChange() event. When the user changes the value
that is selected within the dropdown, I use javascript to locate
(using the policyid) the corresponding record in the javascript
array and populate and/or select the appropriate value(s) in the
second dropdown.
If the data returned from the method invocation is too large
to use within a javascript array, you may need to limit the results
that are returned.
Hope this makes sense. If not, please let me know.

Wondering how to create a text box with variables...

Hi everyone,
I was wondering how to create a text box, that at the beginning of the presentation, the audience fills in regarding what they think constitutes the role they have been chosen for.
I would like that same box to then appear at the end of the presentation, with the text they typed in at the beginning, so they can reflect on what they think now, and what they thought then. I understand this is done using variables, but i'm not 100% sure.
I hope I've worded this okay!

This screenshot shows the properties panel, Style tab for the TEB. I relabeled it to My_TEB, used the X button to create a user variable v_choice that will replace the generic Text_Entry_Box_1/
This is the properties panel of a Shape, I went in Edit mode (double clicking)to make the Character section appear, where you find the X button. It opens the dialog box 'Insert Variable' and you can choose the var associated with the TEB. The Maximum Length will define how many characters will be displayed, the value of a variable has maximum 256 characters.

How to sort an internal table with a header line?

hi all,
i have declared table i_bseg type standard table of bseg with header line.
now i have populated data in i_bseg.
now i am sorting it by bukrs
ie i am writing sort i_bseg by bukrs.
before sorting all i_bseg-belnrs were populated...
but after sorting the contents of the i_bseg is changing.
some of the belnrs are getting deleted..
is there any special way to sort an internal table with header line...?

hi,
<b>SORT <itab> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT] [STABLE].</b>
The statement sorts the internal table <itab> in ascending order by its key.<b> The statement always applies to the table itself, not to the header line</b>.
If you have an internal table with a structured line type that you want sort by a different key, you can specify the key in the SORT statement:
SORT <itab> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT] [STABLE]
BY <f1> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT]
<fn> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT].
<b>this is your sort statement: sort i_bseg by bukrs.
you try with this statement: sort i_bseg by bukrs STABLE.</b>

How to hide the dropdown box in my search screen

hi,
I am new to jsf. Here , i am posting the question first time.
I am developing a search screen. I want to hide one dropdown box in that. can anybody help me on that?
This is the code :
<h:panelGrid rendered="true" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="10" columns="2" styleClass="tabletext" style="vertical-align: top">
<h:panelGrid rendered="true" border="0" columns="1" style="vertical-align: top;">
     <h:outputLabel rendered="true" value="Ranger District:"> </h:outputLabel>
     <h:panelGroup id="regionDropdown">
                              <h:selectOneMenu rendered="true" id="rangerDistrict" value="#{energySearchBean.district}">
                              <f:selectItems value="#{energySearchBean.districts}"/>
               </h:selectOneMenu>
               </h:panelGroup>
          </h:panelGrid>
</h:panelGrid>
Thanks in advance.

If you want to hide it at the server side, use the 'rendered' attribue and let its value evaluate to 'false'. If you want to hide it at the client side, use the CSS 'display' property and set it to 'none'.
By the way, having 'rendered="true"' hardcoded in all components is superfluous. It is just the default value.

My Operating System: Windows XP

The article over at http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Printing/Java2DPrinting/ has some helpful information on printing Swing components.
It suggests creating a subclass of the JComponent that you want to print, and have it implement Printable interface.
So, something like (note, uncompiled / untested code alert) :
import java.awt.Frame;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.HeadlessException;
import java.awt.print.PageFormat;
import java.awt.print.Printable;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
public class PrintableDialog extends JDialog implements Printable {
      * Or whichever constructor you need...
     public PrintableDialog(Frame owner, String title, boolean modal) throws HeadlessException {
          super(owner, title, modal);
      * Implementation of the Printable interface.
       public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pageIndex) {
          if (pageIndex != 0) return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
          Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
          g2.translate(pf.getImageableX(), pf.getImageableY());
          getContentPane().paint(g2);
          return PAGE_EXISTS;
