Set value of System Matrix Form using SDK

Is is possible to set matrix value using SDK of user defined form. Plz forward code for same.

Yes it is possible. You need to get the form and into the form the item, cast it to a matrix and then set the values into it.
There is plenty of samples you can use to learn about UI API. You can download them directly from SDN.

Non-SBO Form Threading Complication ... Lost oCompany

I have created a non-SBO form using several controls not available through B1 in order to gather and manage data from my user community.
However, I am experiencing great difficulty in using the SBObobsCOM objects to be able to save data collected using the native B1 business objects. Specifically, I am attempting to save updates to existing Quotations and add new Quotations. Later, I will update/add to our Business Partners from this form as well.
The problem I am experiencing is that the new thread that is launched to manage the form does not inherit the oCompany object's paramters, which (in turn) prevents me from initializing new business objects, such as a Quotation.
Do I have to reconnect to the system, initializing the oApplication object? If so, how?
My code follows. Any ideas would be welcomed. Thank you.
Scott Young
==> CODE IS LAUNCHED BY A MENU BUTTON EVENT <==
 If (pVal.MenuUID = "B1SalesMgmtMenu" And pVal.BeforeAction = False) Then
 Dim newThread1 As System.Threading.Thread
 newThread1 = New Thread(AddressOf Launch_SalesMgmtCenter)
 newThread1.IsBackground = True
 newThread1.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA)
 newThread1.Start()
 End If
==> THIS SUBROUTINE IS RUN IN ITS OWN THREAD <==
 Private Sub Launch_SalesMgmtCenter()
 Dim oForm As frmB1SalesMgmtCenter
 oForm = New frmB1SalesMgmtCenter
 oForm.ShowInTaskbar = False
 oForm.ShowDialog()
 End Sub

This code is contained within a B1 Add-On. It is launched from a MenuItem event, as noted in the code.
The Launch_SalesMgmtCenter() subroutine is placed within its own new Thread, as shown; so, it runs independent of the main Business One client process. However, it doesn't seem to have the same context as the thread from which it was created. Is there something I must do to initialize another oCompany and oApplication object in the new thread in order to be able to create a business object that I can add/update based upon the operations within the new form?
Getting this new form working would be HUGE to our firm. I would be very pleased to post a How-To guide with my code as a sample if we can work through these final issues.
Thank you for your help!

Is there a way to Update and SaveAs, an XFA form using VBA or similar ?

All:
Need help to auto-fill and auto-save PDFs using VBA or some other means.

What I need to do is repeat these steps below for 200+ PDF forms
Open the blank PDF form
Update 3 fields
Save the PDF with a new name
My Excel VBA code so far ( ** Copied from another post ) where dFile = "C:\temp.pdf" and dAccount = "Any Account"
Sub rxOpenPDF_UpdateFields(dFile, dAccount )
    Dim pdfApp As Acrobat.AcroApp, pdfPDDoc As Acrobat.AcroPDDoc, jso As Object
    Dim str1$, bolOpen As Boolean, strFile$
    Set pdfApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
    Set pdfPDDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
    bolOpen = pdfPDDoc.Open(dFile)

Any help will be very appreciated

I am on Windows XP,
In VBA, I have created Tool References to [Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Type Library]
Downloaded the Acrobat v9 SDK but am lost trying to locate any help for simple VBA.

lrosenth,
Would I be able to Update & SaveAs with a newer version of LiveCycle ( does Adobe still have a LiveCycle line ) ?
I was looking at InDesign but am not sure if it has the functionality that I need ( i.e. create multiple forms from an Excel list)
.. also am unsure of the learning curve.

How do I do validation using SDK.

How do I do validation using SDK.
We have created different warehouses for the client business operations.
For eg:
1. Inspection Stores
2. Rejection Stores
3. Main Stores
In Goods Return & A/P Credit Memo, other than RejectionStores is
selected, we want to generate a warning message.
How do I do this through SDK.
I need the code sample for the following activity:
1. Reading the data available at each row of the current form (Goods
Return/ A/P Credit memo)
2. Validate the data with a paricular warehouse
3. Generate warning message.
I could not find any samples related to this.

There is a method called MessageBox for the Application object. Have a look at

How to delete checkbox in pdf form using adobe acrobat professional 6.

I am trying to modify a pdf form having a single layer. There are some checkboxes which i want to delete. I am using Adobe acrobat 6 professional. USing Advanced Editing tools -> Touchup Object Tool , i have try to delete the checkbox, it deletes all fields and tables in the form and there is only text left on the form. Any help would be appreciated. . Thanks@

You do not use the "Object Tool" to edit forms. There should be a "Form" menu option and under this option you will have the opton "Edit form in Acrobat". This is the way one should edit/create a form in Acrobat.

How to add new fields in sap copied standard form using itcsy structure

hi guys,
i want add some fields in sap script copied standard form using itcsy structure.
let me know the procedure with any example.
thanks,
anitha.

Hii anitha
plz c code below
Syntax goes like this
/: PERFORM <form> IN PROGRAM <prog>
/: USING &INVAR1&
/: USING &INVAR2&
/: CHANGING &OUTVAR1&
/: CHANGING &OUTVAR2&
/: ENDPERFORM
INVAR1 and INVAR2 are variable symbols and may be of any of the four SAPscript symbol types.
OUTVAR1 and OUTVAR2 are local text symbols and must therefore be character strings.
Example:
In script form
/: PERFORM READ_TEXTS IN PROGRAM 'Z08M1_FORM_EKFORM1'
/: USING &EKKO-EKORG&
/: USING &EKPO-WERKS&
/: USING &EKKO-EKGRP&

How to process (populate & merge) XFA PDF Forms using Adobe library in Java

We have the XFA Forms (.pdf) created in Adobe LiveCycle designer 8.2 ES. We have the following requirement :
1. We need to populate data in those forms using standalone Java programs.
2. We need to merge the populated forms and create a single PDF out of these forms, using standalone Java programs.
Can both of these be done using Adobe PDF Library or Acrobat SDK?
What is the difference between Adobe PDF Library or Acrobat SDK?
We already have the licensed version of Adobe Acrobat Professional 9 with LiveCycle Designer 8.2 ES. Where can I get the relevant Adobe Java APIs from?
Can someone provide some sample code that could be used for the above requirements?
Please provide your inputs on these. We have been using IText, but facing some limitations in that recently.

The answer looks quite clear, and the conclusion is essentially simple: Don't use LiveCycle Designer.
Keep in mind that LiveCycle Designer originated as design tool for the according servers (that's way back in JetForms's days). For reasons I still can follow, Adobe decided to thow this design tool after any Acrobat Pro for Windows buyer. And the forms industry is now suffering from the mess that created.
Also, keep in mind that the term "Server" is used here as "service providing application".
Rants aside, was there a specific feature making you chose XFA (aka LiveCycle Designer)? Knowing these reasons can help us finding suitable workarounds.

Data mapping to SAP B1 using SDK

is there any way around to do the data mapping from other system database to SAP B1
database without using field to field mapping?
ex: we want to migrate from other system to B1 we need to transfer their old data to a new one..and of course the database structure is not the same..and it would be a lot of task if we migrate their old PO to B1 (i'm thinking using field to field mapping so we must know the data structure from the old system and provide the information needed when we want migrate it to B1)
is there any thoughts?
hope u understand what i mean
PS: all the migrate things is using SDK
thanks,
erick

Hi Erick,
I think, using DI API should be better.
I know that, all data in the database is not supported.
But, most simple idea is,
1. Get objects from old company database
2. review the data by SDK (validating and user field mapping)
3. add modified objects to new company database
This should be most same, and you can process many process automatically in process 2.
Hope this helpful for you.

How to move columns in SBO forms

Hello,
I would like to know if it is possible to move columns in SBO form tables.
If yes, what is the way to do that?
Thank you.
Thibault

Hi Thibault,
In the 2005 SDK there is a new object in the DI-API called ColumnsPreferences. Maybe you should look into that. The TabsOrder property is the one you need I guess...
Do a search on this forum on ColumnPreferences and you should find a few examples how to get the right column (it's tricky).
Hope it helps,
Rowdy

Call Another Form using Forms Personalization

Hi All,
I have created a Custom form using TEMPLATE.fmb and created functions in Apps and assigned to Responsibility etc and it all works OK.
Now, I need to call this Custom form from another seeded(PO form) Via Tools -> Menu.
using Forms personalization I can get the Menu Entry and Actions to execute the Form successfully from the PO Form.
BUT, I need it to automatically query records in my CUSTOM form based on my current PO_HEADER_ID value on my PO Form.
How can I do it ?
Do I need to modify my Block and add some parameters and then pass a value via Personalization ?
Please help !
Thanks
