Livecycle populate text field with multiple records from list box

Can someone tell me how can I populate a text field from list box when I have multiple select.
Here is example:
List box consist: Hello
World.
I want to see this in text field: Hello,World.
Thanks!

Hi Legro
I don't know if I understand you correctly, but you can do something like this:
----------------- java script begin ---------------------------------
//Reset text field
TextField.rawValue = "";
//loop through items in listbox
for(i = 0; i < ListBox.length; i++)
          //if item selected
          if(ListBox.getItemState(i))
                    //check if Text field value if null
                    if (TextField.isNull)
                              TextField.rawValue = ListBox.getDisplayItem(i);
                    else
                              TextField.rawValue = TextField.rawValue + " " + ListBox.getDisplayItem(i);
----------------- java script end ---------------------------------
I have attached an sample PDF so that you can see how it works!!

Update multiple records from list box

The idea is to present a list box to allow for the selection
of multiple records. The records' primary key field having been set
up as the value parameter in the list box. Then use a single update
statement to update all selected records with a common value.
I have tried to do this using code similar to:
UPDATE MyTable SET MyTable.MyColumn = 1 WHERE (
MyTable.MyKeyField IN ( @ListOfIntegers ) )
Where the parameter is configured thus:
<Parameter Name="@ListOfIntegers" Value='<%#
((Request.Form["MyListBox"]' Type="Int" />
The idea is that the multiple selection listbox will return a
comma separated list, which should l work nicely with the WHERE
[column] IN ( .. ) syntax.
Unfortunatley if more than one record is selected the
Complier throws a type conversion error.
I want to do this using Dreamweaver and C# on .NET.
Any ideas how to proceed ?

Are you wanting to update multiple records with the same
information or
different information for each record?

Auto populate text fields with a trigger such as entering text into input fields in ADF

Hello all,
I am not able to auto populate text fields with a trigger such as entering text into input fields in ADF.
I tried AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(val); in the back end using setter method of input text field.
its not working ..
is there any way to achieve it
Regards,
Shakir

Hi,
Always mention your JDev version.
The valueChangeListener would fire only when you set the autoSubmit property of the field to true. Can you elaborate your requirement? What do you mean by related data? Are you performing some sort of search?
If you want to get the value you entered on the field, just set autoSubmit to true and get the new value from the valueChangeListener. If your requirement is something like as and when you type, do something, you need to check out this approach :https://blogs.oracle.com/groundside/entry/auto_reduce_search_sample

Auto populate blank text fields with n.a from a button or on print out.

This seems straight forward but I cannot find an existing questions on this topic.
I would like to add a form function that will fill any blank text fields with n.a. I do not want to use the default field value as I think it will cause confusion and cannot be applied for text fields formatted for dates. Is it possible to run a script that can do this? It would be OK if the action was triggered from a button or print activity after the rest of the form has been completed.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks

The question is whether your form is used only for filling out on screen (and not as a level 0 form, being printed out and filled out manually).
If so, why not make the default value of the concerned fields to be "n/a" (or whatever you want to name them). That would relieve you from any validating before printing.
Otherwise, you could maintain a list of field names which should get the n/a value if empty. This list would be an array.
Your code in the willPrint event (if you want to have it reliably) would then look like this:
for (var i = 0 ; i < nafieldarray.length ; i++) {
if (this.getField(nafieldarray[i]).value == this.getField(nafieldarray[i]).defaultValue) {
this.getField(nafieldarray[i].value = "n/a") ;

How to create Using Formatted Text Field with multiple Sliders?

Hi i found the Java Sun tutorial at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/slider.html very useful, and it tells how to create one Formatted Text Field with a Slider - however i need to create Formatted Text Field for multiple Sliders in one GUI, how do i do this?

if :p3_note_id is null
then
insert into notes (project_id, note, notes_month, notes_year) So, p3_note_id is NULL.
Another option is that you have a trigger on table NOTES that generates a new note_id even for an update.

How to autopopulate a text field with unique data from multiple data sets

Hi,
I'm a laboratory manager in charge of a hospital project which will be using pdf forms to send and receive data from our end users across the city. I need help with the last part of our pdf form, specifically with a js that will do a bit of text-field autopopulation magic. This, unfortunately, is a beyond what I have taught myself about pdf js functionality.a
The problem:
I need to provide my end users with a text field containing a set of data [A, B, C, D, E, F ...] and the total items in this set [tot#]. The end user needs this information as part of the implementation of this particular laboratory machine.
The particulars
When the end user asks for an experiment to be run, we must specify some pieces of data to help them interpret the results. These are constructed as panels which contain discrete data elements.
For example - One experiment may use two panels, Panel#1 and Panel #2. Panel #1 includes the items A, B, D, E, Panel #2 includes the items A, B, C, F, G.
Thus, the panels may share some of the same items, but, I only want the unique members to be displayed in the text field. If I make a drop down box or checkboxes with the panels, I want to be able to select the panels that we ran and (in this example) have the text field display only the unique items among all the panels that were used:
textfield outpute = A, B, C, D, E, F, G - 7 total.
Any assistance from the pdf community would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks for that help.
I should have made it more apparent that I'm very new to scripting and I'm
not a programmer by trade. I have a few questions before modifying the code
you kindly provided.
1) Where should I embed this script? Within the 'selection change' area of
my listbox?
2) Can I replace the term 'arr' with the names of the various items in my
listbox or should I put 'arr#' as the output value for each term?
3) Will this script find and display the unique values when a user selects
multiple items in my listbox?
4) How does the script know where to output the unique members of the
combined set?
I appreciate your patience with me.

Populate Text Box with mulitple selctions from list box

Hello,
I am new to LiveCycle and searched the forums for an answer as to how to populate multiple selections from a list box to a text field.
I added to the calculate field of the text field the following: TextField14.rawValue = ListBox1.rawValue
Is there a way I can modify this so that the items from the listbox populate the text field so that the values show up side by side (i.e. California, Connecticut, New York) instead of top-down?
Joe

I would use the following JS code in the 'exit' event of the List box
var
ListValue = this.rawValue;ListValue
= replaceAll(ListValue, "\n", " ,");TextField1.rawValue
= ListValue;
function replaceAll(oldStr,findStr, repStr) {
     var srchNdx = 0; // srchNdx will keep track of where in the whole line
     // of oldStr are we searching.
     var newStr = ""; // newStr will hold the altered version of oldStr.
     while (oldStr.indexOf(findStr,srchNdx) != -1)
          // As long as there are strings to replace, this loop
          // will run.
          newStr
+= oldStr.substring(srchNdx,oldStr.indexOf(findStr,srchNdx));
          // Put it all the unaltered text from one findStr to
          // the next findStr into newStr.
          newStr
+= repStr;
          // Instead of putting the old string, put in the
          // new string instead.
          srchNdx
= (oldStr.indexOf(findStr,srchNdx) + findStr.length);
          // Now jump to the next chunk of text till the next findStr.
     newStr
+= oldStr.substring(srchNdx,oldStr.length);
     // Put whatever's left into newStr.
     return newStr;
Good Luck,

How to populate text fields with data present in a table

Hi,
The page i'm building has got a select list for the primary key column and text fields corresponding to rest of the columns in the table.
upon selecting some value from the list, the data corresponding to that row should get populated in the respective items. I don't want to add source in each item. can't i create a process or something else where this is done for each item.
for eg there's a table with columns A(primary key) and B.
there is a text fields on this page.
this textfield should populate the data from the table whenever i submit the page such that teh value in B is select B from tablename where A = the selected value.
Thanks
Dhirendra

So I assume page was not built using a wizard. Why on earth you would want to I dont know, but you could create an "After Header" pl/sql process to populate the relevant fields, assuming the id was know on entry to the page. If you want to select the id on the page and then populate the fields, guess you will need to use a "Text Field (always submits page when Enter pressed)" and then use an "On Submit" process to populate the items.
If you are using an Automated Row Fetch, remember to select "Set memory Cache on Fetch" in that process.
Hope this helps.

Text Field with multiple lines

I am trying to create a text field in the selection screen where it can insert a text with multiple lines for instance those text fields which you can see online where you can key in text lines after lines.
How do you do that in ABAP?

Hi
See any Std program code for CREATING long Text lines
See any application document HEADER or ITEM text and copy that code
first declare a field with some table field
like
PARAMETERS: p_text like Tline-tdname.
then keep a button (for Long text) and in the program write a code such that when you press on that line it will take you to text ediotr
using the CREATE_TEXT fun module
copy it from a std program text..

Populate Text fields from Select List

I have a select list when selected should populate two text fields with values based on SQL Query
Eg. The select list is for empno and populates ename and sal in two different text fields.
I have looked at Denes' example http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:42 It is very good but the only problem I am facing is how to populate more than one fields.
Any help will be appreciated.
ZRH

Hi
That would depend on where the SAL data is. If it's on your page, then you could probably do something with javascript. If not, you would have to do some Ajax to retrieve the value from the database. Have a look at: http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:80
Your select list could include both the ENAME and SAL values and your existing javascript would then just split the data into two parts and insert them into the appropriate fields.

Having issues with populating a Text Field with data from 2 other fields

I have 3 fields Tools_1a_pri, Tools_1a_pri_other, Tools_1a_pri_txt.
Tools_1a_pri is a drop down combo with a predefined list. One of the options is "Other". When "Other" is selected, the text field Tools_1a_pri_other becomes visible for users to enter the name of the other tool.
The Tools_1a_pri_txt is a text field with a calculation that shows either text stating that no tool has been selected or the Tools_1a_pri & or Tools_1a_pri_other.
When I select one of the predefined tools, everything works. When I select other, it appears that nothing has changed. It requires that I click on another field before it populates. This is confusing to the user.
Tools_1a_pri Validate code
this.getField("Tools_1a_pri_Other").display = event.value=="Other" ? display.visible : display.hidden;
Tools_1a_pri_txt Calculation code
//if nothing is selected, do the following
if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value.length < 2) {
event.target.textColor = color.red
event.value = "No primary tool identified";
}else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value != "Other") {
//otherwise do this if other is selected
event.target.textColor = color.black
event.value = getField("Tools_1a_pri").value;
}else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value = "Other") {
//otherwise do this if other is not selected
event.target.textColor = color.black
event.value = getField("Tools_1a_pri").value + " - " + getField("Tools_1a_pri_Other").value;

You made the classic mistake of using the assignment operator in an if-statement instead of the comparison operator. Change this line:
} else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value = "Other") {
To this:
} else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value == "Other") {

Select max date from a table with multiple records

Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you have a question, post a little sample data in a form that people can use to re-create the problem and test their ideas.

     VALUES     (0010973671, 'BASE',    TO_DATE ('18-JUN-2010', 'DD-MON-YYYY'), 'NO');
COMMIT;Also, post the results that you want from that data. I'm not certain, but I think you want these results:
`    SA_ID LAST_EFFD
    651005 13-NOV-09
10973671 18-JUN-10That is, the latest effdt for each distinct sa_id.

SELECT    sa_id
,         MAX (effdt)    AS last_effdt
FROM      table_x
GROUP BY sa_id

How can I have a checkbox that a user checks and populates a field with read only text, then if another checkbox is checked it will allow user text input

Hi
How can I have a check box that a user checks and populates a field with read only text, then if another check box is checked it will allow user text input into that same field, her is my javascript
var a ="Not Applicable"
if (this.getField("Do").value == "Yes")
a=""
if (this.getField("DoNot").value =="Yes")
a=a + ""
event.value=a
say if the "Do" cb is checked, Not Applicable would populate the text field, and if the "DoNot" cb is checked it would allow user input into the same text field, the javascript I have will not allow user input,
thanks for any help I am new to javascript

Are these fields mutually exclusive?

Import Text Data to text fields with folder level script

I am using Adobe 9 professional and have a folder level javascript to import text into existing fields of a pdf.
There are multiple fields with multiple rows of data to be imported.
The folder level script is not working (but there are no errors in the console showing when run)
I have manually tested opening the text file with the following code in the console and the text file opens and populates the text fields, so the text file must be correct:
this.importTextData();
The following code is the folder level script which is not working:
function mailmergeFunction()
// Import the first row of data from "Mailmerge.txt"
this.importTextData("/h/mail merge/Jo Smith's Things/Mailmerge.txt", 0)
if (typeof cnt == "undefined") cnt = 0;
this.importTextData("/h/mail merge/Jo Smith's Things/Mailmerge.txt", cnt++ % 4)
app.trustedFunction(mailmergeFunction);
app.addToolButton({cName: "Mail merge",cExec: "mailmergeFunction()",cTooltext: "Mail Merge",cEnable: true,nPos: 14});
If anyone can please provide some assistance, it will be most appreciated thanks.

Working fine now, changed the location of the file path - could have been something to do with having an apostrophe.
function mailmergeFunction()
app.beginPriv()
// Import the first row of data from "Mailmerge.txt"
this.importTextData("/h/mail merge/Mailmerge.txt", 0)
if (typeof cnt == "undefined") cnt = 0;
this.importTextData("/h/mail merge/Mailmerge.txt", cnt++ % 4)
app.endPriv()
app.trustedFunction(mailmergeFunction);
app.addToolButton({cName: "Mail merge",cExec: "mailmergeFunction()",cTooltext: "Mail Merge",cEnable: true,nPos: 14});
Thank you for your assistance George, much appreciate your help.

Creating multiple records from 1 record in the source file for Import DM

Hi Experts,
Today I am working on an interface/import where I want to get the following result:
Source file contains a records like:
Account, Entity, DriverX
Sales,EntityA,ZZ
The BPC appset contains the 2 dimensions Account and Entity next to CostCenter dimension. The DriverX field in the source file is just additional information in the source file. However based on this DriverX we need to determine what CostCenter to choose but we also need to have the same record assigned to a second record in BPC.
Following my example, based on DriverX value I need to create 2 records:
Account, Entity, CostCenter,
Sales,EntityA,CC1
Sales,EntityA,CC2
I don't have a problem assigning the record to 1 CostCenter based on DriverX value but I have a problem creating my second record. Does any of you have had the same "challenge" and if so would you like to share the solution for this?
Best regards,
Johan
PS: I am working on SAP BPC, version 7.0 Microsoft version.

Hi Greg,
Many thanks for your answer. And yes this would be a solution. However I just simplified my case as the decision to create an second record and where to post is depending on more than 1 field in the source.
But I will keep it in mind, because I also can opt for a solution to store data differently in BPC fac-tabels which will help me to use script logic.
If it is not possible to create multiple records from a single records in the standard functionality in the Transformation and/or Conversion file, I have to create a custom DTSX or change my way of storing data.
Anyone else who is having an alternative idea like Greg came up with?
Please let it know!
Best regards,
Johan
