Insert Address Fields - How Sort Alpha

When I insert and then merge address fields into a letter, when the letters are built the letters seem to be in random order - rather than in Alphabetic order - Starting with Last names that start with A on through to the Z's.
Anyone know how to make this happen?
Thanks
Dirk

I would really like to know the answer to this one as well. I've tried everything. My Address Book is in alphabetical order of contact surname but letters and envelopes come out in a random order (could it be age of the record?)

Validate 2 E-mail address fields in insert record form

Hello,
I have used the Insert Record Form Wizard to create a form, including using the Validate Form Server Behavior to validate many fields.
I can't figure out how to compare & validate 2 E-mail address fields.
After the form was created I opened the existing Validate Form Server Behavior - Advanced tab and built the condition {sub_email2} != {sub_email} but this had no affect on submitting the form.
The other thing I tried was creating a new Compare Transaction Field behavior with the same condition {sub_email2} != {sub_email}, this also seemed to have no affect.
I am just a beginner, so I admit to not really knowing what I'm doing, for me ADDT has been a great aid.
The other thing I noticed, when I tried both the items above, besides not affecting being able to submit the form with different E-mail addresses. The red asterisks indicating a required field, would disappear.
Here is the form http://www.oescahealthregistry.org/forms/pedigree_submission.php this version of the form does NOT include either of my attempts to validate the E-mail fields.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
A compare statement should work fine. As an example I made small form that inserts name and email (2 fields) using Insert record wizard.
Name field is required, email field is required and checks that its a valid email structure ([email protected]). I then finish the wizard.
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="<?php echo KT_escapeAttribute($row_rsemail['email']); ?>" size="32" />
<?php echo $tNGs->displayFieldHint("email");?> <?php echo $tNGs->displayFieldError("email", "email"); ?>
I then add the extra field to the form that the 2nd email will be entered into, this one I called email2, I then copied the display hint and fielderror code from the first email and placed it behind the 2nd email box and changed the text to reflect email2. Which probably doesnt matter but I put it there anyway.
<input name="email2" type="text" id="email2" size="32" />
<?php echo $tNGs->displayFieldHint("email2");?> <?php echo $tNGs->displayFieldError("email2", "email2"); ?>
Now that I have both email fields in the form, I go to the developer tools under server behavior and select compare transactions fields under form validation.
I hit the + to add a field I then choose email for field, then == for condition, then {POST.email2} for compare to. I enter in an error message and hit ok.
Thats it the form is ready.
The first email field will check against email validation and the 2nd email will check against the first email.
I hope that helps.
Take note that the database actually only has 2 fields to enter data. Then 2nd email field is only for validation.

How to make the Shipping address field on an Account as a required field?

Hi,
The requirement is that there has to be a shipping address specified for each Account that is being created.
I tried to set the 'shipping' address field to 'required' in Account field setup, but the required checkbox is disabled, neither can I do it from Account Page layouts since there also its the same case.
Does anyone know if its possible to do this and how?
Regards,
Ani.

Have you tried to add validation to the AccountName field
[<PrimaryShipToStreetAddress>] IS NOT NULL - will test to see if there is a value in the Shipping Address 1 field

How to visit a pasted url in address field?

This may seem a naïve question:
Some background: I have never used Safari before. I have just installed *Safari 5.01* for Windows on my *Windows 7 PC*, and when I *+copy and paste+* an url for a particular existing web page into Safari's address field (which url loads successfully in Firefox, Opera, and IE ), I find I have no *go to* or load arrow, or other means, such as pressing enter or return, to make the browser load the pasted address. When I press Ctrl+L nothing happens, whether from the drop down menu at File: *Open Location...* or as a double keyboard command.
And so I resorted to importing a bookmark for the address from IE, and then Safari loaded it successfully.
Can I not just copy and paste addresses into Safari's address field and have a *+simple next step+* to load the page as I can with IE, Firefox, and Opera ?
I tried typing part of the address in manually for Safari's autocomplete to find it, but it wouldn't find the address, which is very new, but does exist, and as I have said, loads in the other three browsers with a simple paste and enter. This *+copy and paste+* method happens to be a very convenient means of loading some sites, with only one option being available, that is the exact address, rather than possibly several options that are offered up as one types part of the address, which have to be looked at and chosen from.
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Thanks … allaniam

*I confirm a similar bug exists on Safari 5.0.2 for Windows, running on a 32bit Windows XP SP3.*
Description
1. You copy an URL, not matter how you copy it (copy the URL text, or from another browser address bar, or from a webpage using the contextual menu "Copy Link", and etc)
2. When you try to paste in the Safari address:
===(i) if you use keyboard shortcut Control-V to paste in the URL, and press ENTER - everything is normal, meaning you will leave your previous webpage and go to the new page with that URL you pasted in using Control-V
===(ii) if you right click on the Safari address bar, invoke the contextual menu that popups from there, and choose "Paste" from the menu,and then hit ENTER after you paste in the new URL:
*======(A) the new URL you pasted in will disappear.*
*======(B) the old URL before your paste, will re-appear in the address bar.*
*======(C) the cumulative effect this operation will be the same that you reload the previous page.*
This is the symptoms on 32bit Windows.
*It seems in the current build of Safari for Win, "Paste" command from a menu denotes something different from its shortcut "CTRL-V".*
This is a very weird thing.
Just for the record, Safari 5.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.6.4 doesn't share the bug.
*By the way, I have also surveyed the exactly version and build numbers for both the Safari versions:*
Safari 5.0.2, build 7533.18.5: on WinXP 32bit
Safari 5.0.2, build 6533.18.5: on Snow Leopard.

How can I get the address book to sort by "Last" name (using v 31.3.0).

After a computer crash, I had to load Thunderbird (v31.3.0) back into my machine running Windows 8.1, and I successfully imported my address book back up file into Thunderbird (v31.3.0).
My problem is that I don't see an option to sort the address book by "Last" name, which was available with the version of Thunderbird I had before the crash.
How can I get the address book to sort by "Last" name?

In 'Address Book'
Select address book
'View' > 'Show name as' > 'Last/First'
The you can sort by Name.
Either click on 'Name' column header to change sort order,
If reversed, then click on 'Name' column header again to reverse the order.
Or
'View' > 'Sort By' > choose 'Name' and 'Ascending'

How to use a .Mac alias in the outgoing address field from iPhone?

I do not want my .Mac Apple ID showing up in the outgoing address field from my iPhone. I want to use an alias instead, just like I use in Mail. How can I use the same alias in iPhone?
The iPhone has been great once I finally got it activated...no problems synching from Outlook on my PC and Address Book and iCal on my Mac. Now all of my PC and Mac data are finally merged on my iPhone and on both computers...wish I would have saved the money I spent on two versions of MissingSync! Looking forward to some software updates...
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.10) iPhone

If you want to setup a different REPLY TO, you have to use the OTHER shortcut when creating the mail account on the iPhone. It allows you to specify an address in the Account Information box different from your incoming and outgoing server login IDs.

Where did Safari address field go? How do I get it back?

My Safari address field disappeared> What happened? How do I get it back?

If you notice the Show/Hide Toolbar menu it has a hotkey menu equivalent. You probably accidently clicked the hotkey which is what toggled it off in the first place.

How to update address fields from a different view?

Hello Everyone,
I have created a context node(Model Attribute) of standard address fields using BuilAddress in a view that doesn't have it and successfully displayed them. This is contacts view where the original address of the contact is not available. Now our requirement is to update the standard address if needed from the contacts view itself. How can I do this? The address fields are available for display only, even if I want to update them using code based on some condtions if not manual entry how can I achieve that?
Did anyone ever use CRM_BP_UIU_SAVE Badi? I see no posts related to this in forum. Can anyone give me a sample code on what can be done in here and what data of BP is accessible in this BADI and how?
Thanks,
Sunil

Hi Murali,
Are you sure I can update the address fields using BAPI's from WEBUI? I have tried this already and the BAPI or Function just woudn't call, always return with error message. I was thinking that BAPI's and Functions for updating just wouldn't work from WEBUI.
To give you more details, I am in the BP_DATA/AccountContactEF view. I added the context node Address and brought in all the fields from BUILADDRESS structure, it generated the get, set methods for me. I want to update a couple of fields like telephone info, street, city etc. In this view I just redefined Create_Contact method and I tried to update the address using BUPA_ADDRESS_CHANGE for the contact person and it never works. I also tried BUPA_ADDRESS_REMOVE to delete and add the new address using BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD, but that wouldn't work either.
So that is why I am exploring the option of using BADI, which I found out is very similar. I was able to access pretty much everything of BP data and Contact data. but there also the functions or Bapi's wont work.
Let me know if you did anything similar. Also as you mentioned the GET_I method, Context node creation Wizard generated it for me and I have the field editable, its just that when I save it , it wont save and the old values are read back and populated. Meaning if I have 'NY' for region and I change it to 'CA' , after save 'NY' comes back.
Thanks for you help.

Will HANA database table to insert a CLOB field , how to operate ?

Will HANA database table to insert a CLOB field , how to operate ?
Prior to this , I also see the related documentation : http://scn.sap.com/thread/3242930,
So I used the link : http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/jdbc/basics/blob.html elaborated way to perform the operation to insert CLOB
But practice tells me does not work, will be reported abnormal："com.sap.db.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc40.SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: Method createClob() of ConnectionSapDB is not supported.".
I want to know is , HANA how to insert CLOB field ? In this first say thank you !

This is a problem with the driver. It is a known bug/issue.
You have to use the dbms_lob.write procedure and append data to the clob inside a loop.
i.e. do something like (pseudo-code)
while(file.not_end)
char[] buffer= file.read(start_pos,bytes_read);
dmbs_lob.write(buffer);
start_pos = start_pos+ bytes_read;
null

How to add extra lines in the address field?

How, if possible, to add extra lines in the address field? For example, the street address might require two lines:
Bob Smith
Newport A Unit 32
Century Village
Aventura, FL

Thanks, Barney! It's even easier than the solution I came to: copying and pasting into the field.

How do I hide names from the Address fields?

here's the problem.
a group of peers is exchanging emails using the Reply All function. the catch? we need to keep our names out of the Address Fields. if I enter my friend's name into Address Book, Mail insists on showing the full name in the Address Field.
is there any way to insert only the email address without the name of the recipient in the Address Fields? even when selected from the Address Book, or entered via a Group selection?
BCC is not an option. De-selecting "When sending to a group, show all member addresses" is also not an option, because I would assume that recipients will not be able to Reply All.
I tried entering an alias into the Email field in Address book: Alias <[email protected]>.
any ideas?
cheers,
Gregory

you can uncheck the option to auto complete addresses in Mail preferences->composing. then you can enter the addresses by hand without full names. the addresses will still show of course. or you can create double vcards for people in question in address book that have just email addresses but no names. then Mail will let you choose those.
