How to use value in a drop-down list box as "With these Values" parameter?

Hello, new user.
I have a drop-down list box on Page 1, upon which the user can choose a study number. The List Box is named "P1_STUDY_NBR".
Then I have a list, one entry of which goes to my master-detail form, which is Page 6. I would like it to go to the study number that the user choose on Page 1.
In my target on the create/edit list entry, I put in "Page in this Application", "Page 6", then in Set these items, I put in
P6_STUDY_NBR
My question is what to use in With these values, where I want the contents of the P1_STUDY_NBR. I tried:
&P1_STUDY_NBR
and that does not work. If I put in one of the study numbers, like 336-00, then it does work, but I want it to pass the study number the user chooses in the list box. How do I refer to the contents of P1_STUDY_NBR?
-Mary

Yes, that does work, thanks. I'm now getting the default value I was putting in yesterday rather than an error message, so there must be something loading it, but I'll hunt around for what process might be doing that, or try re-creating the master-detail form again.

How to increase the width of the drop down list box in SSRS multi value parameter

Hi,
I am using SSRS 2012. I have a parameter, which accepts multi value.
The width of the drop down list box is very small, and the user need to scroll to the right to view the complete view of the content in the list box. But, if I don't use multi value then the length is good. Kindly suggest how to I increase the width
of the list box when it set to multi value parameter.
Thanks in advance,
Mahalengam Arumugam

Hi Mahalengam,
After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it. When the values for a single parameter are too long, the drop-down list of the parameter will automatically enlarge to an appropriate size. While the values for a multiple parameter are
too long, we need to scroll to the right to view the complete view of the content in the list box in SSRS 2008. But in SSRS 2008R2 and SSRS 2012, we can directly drag the black control at the bottom of the list box to control the size.
The following screenshot is for your reference:
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Hi Katherine,
Thanks for your reply. I understood we need to drag the list box to a maximum size to view the contents.
But, this seems an additional task, i know this is a limitation in the current version of SSRS and hope it will be resolved in the next versions.
Thanks for your efforts,

How to set a default value for a drop down list box and then apply cascading based on the default value in Infopath 2010.

Hello Everyone
I have two drop downs. Both are coming from look up fields from two lists. i want to set a default value(first list item) for the first drop down list box and then apply cascading based on the default value for the next drop down list box. I found one article(http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2010/display-first-item-drop-down-list-box-infopath-2010.htm)
where in i can set a default value but i can't apply cascading based on that default value. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

How to get the selected value/key of a drop down list box in webdynpro Java

Dear SDN Members,
I have added some static data into a drop down list box by key UI element using the procedure specified in value help tutorial.
Now i want to display the value selected in a dropdown list box on view whenever i select an item in a dropdown list box.
Can any one put here the code part relating to this.
Your help will be awarded.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Sireesha.B

Hi Sireesha,
You want to display value based on the key selected in dropdown list. If you want to do like that
1) Create a context attribute for ex: key_value
2)In the properties of the attribute select the calculated as true.
3)It will create getter and setter methods for your attribute.
4)Go to implementation add the following code in getter method of your attribute
String attributeName = IPrivateCreate.IContextElement.KEY;
//KEY is your dropdown key attribute not the value attribute.
IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = element.node().getNodeInfo().getAttribute(attributeName);
ISimpleTypeModifiable simpleType = attributeInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
IModifiableSimpleValueSet valueset = simpleType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
Object key = element.getAttributeAsText(attributeName);
return valueset.getText(key);

Firefox 3 used to have a drop down list under the back button for recent pages. How do I get this in FF4?

FF3 used to have a drop down list of the most recent pages that a tab had displayed under the back arrow button. FF4 does not appear to have this. How can I see history of what's been displayed in the tab say four or five pages back?

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

Hello Nanda,
In the Adobe LiveCycle Designer you can specify several list items for objects of type 'Drop-down List' and it is also possible to allow custom entries (checkbox: "Allow Custom Text Entry").

Display pages that reacts to different values in the drop down list.

I currently did up a simple drop down list that stores values retrieved from the database. I would like the program to display pages that reacts to the selected value without the press of any button, which means, if I select any value from the drop down list, the page will be displayed according to the value selected.
Below are the codes that I did for the retrieval of data from the database.
<%
        String username = "test";
        String password = "test";
        String thinConn = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@dbdev:1521:ORCL";
        Connection conn;
        Statement stm;
        ResultSet rs;
        String baseQuery ="SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM STAFF ORDER BY ID ASC";
        try {
            conn = DriverManager.getConnection(thinConn,username,password);
            stm = conn.createStatement();
            rs = stm.executeQuery(baseQuery);
%>
<strong>Retrieve ID from Database</strong>
    <select size="1" name="dropdown">
    <%
    while (rs.next()) {
        String id = rs.getString("ID");
        out.write("<option value=\"" + id + "\">" + "level " + id + "</option>");
                conn.close();
            } catch (SQLException e) {
    %>
    </select>Would appreciate if someone might offer some help to what I have to do next

DSN's Missing in the ODBC drop down list box

Being new to JDeveloper, I have been running through the
tutorials. I have installed Oracle lite on NT4 SP3 and have
tested out the sample data base 'Polite' using the installed
odbc driver through MS query ...all works fine, however in
tutorial 3 while trying to add the Data Form using Oracle Lite
driver, no dsn's appear on the next screen of the wizard when I
click on the 'ODBC drop down list box'. How do I get Jdeveloper
to bring up the DSN's. I have also tried the 'Sun JDBC-ODBC
driver' route, yet still there is not a single DSN in the drop
down list box.
Thanks
