Multi Select List Item

Hi All
I want to have a field on my page that will be having around 80 values say Poplist.But i want to select multiple values.Like may be you would have seen some sites on which there is a field say Technologies you know and we select OAF,PLSQL etc..
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
You can use ListBox bean of OAF, you can not create it at design time so you need to create using controller, following is the sample code
public void processRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processRequest(pageContext, webBean);
// Create the list bean (be sure to give it a name).
OADefaultListBean list =(OADefaultListBean)createWebBean(pageContext,
OAWebBeanConstants.DEFAULT_LIST_BEAN,null, "positionsList");
// Specify the view object that you will use to populate the list bean values.
list.setListViewObjectDefinitionName("oracle.apps.fnd.framework.toolbox.poplist.server.PositionsVO");
// Specify the display and internal value attributes in the associated viewobject.
list.setListValueAttribute("LookupCode");
list.setListDisplayAttribute("Meaning");
// Configure the list box to allow selection of multiple values.
list.setMultiple(true);
// Even though you created the component with an ID, you must explicitly
// make this call to setName().
list.setName("posList");
// In this example, we're adding the list box to a messageComponentLayoutregion, so we
// get the declaratively defined messageLayout region that will contain this
// component. Note that we declaratively set a prompt for the list box on the
// messageLayout region.
OAMessageLayoutBean listBoxLayout =(OAMessageLayoutBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("ListBoxLayout");
listBoxLayout.addIndexedChild(list);
To get the values selected from list box you can use following code in your PFR
OADefaultListBean list =
(OADefaultListBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("positionsList");
String name = list.getName();
String[] selectedValues = pageContext.getParameterValues(name);

Set Default Value of Multi-select list item

I have a multi-select list item I want to default the value of to '%' (which is really '%null%') and have it selected. I tried setting default value of item, but it doesn't take '%null%'. I also tried a computation with a static of
:P507_ITEM := '%null%'; How do you get the default value set and selected?

Hi
Shijesh is right, you need to change your null return value and use that return value as your default. Try and use something of the same datatype as your real return values if you plan to use '%' to display all as it will make your queries simpler. eg.
Company A returns 1
Company B return 2
% returns 0
Then your query would be...
SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE company_id = DECODE(:P_COMPANY,1,1,2,2,0,company_id)
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers

Can anyone please help me? Why is it happening? How to tweak my query so that it saves one record with colon delimeter.

Technically, my understanding is that a Shuttle is just two multiselect lists where javascript moves the items from one to the other. Technically its the same thing, just different presentation and methods for selection. When you go to process, its seen the same way as you initially had your code setup so no code changes would have been necessary. As it's a built in item type and with APEX's backwards compatibility policies, if your code works now it should continue to work.

How Do I Filter a Report Using a Multi Select List Box and Specifying Date Between Begin Date and End Date

Hope someone can help. I have tried to find the best way to do this and can't seem to make sense of anything. I'm using an Access 2013 Database and I have a report that is based on a query. I've created a Report Criteria Form. I
need the user to be able to select multiple items in a list box and also to enter a Begin Date and End Date. I then need my report to return only the records that meet all selected criteria. It works fine with a ComboBox and 1 selection but can't
get it to work with a List Box so they can select multiple items. Any help is greatly appreciated while I still have hair left.

The query should return all records.
Let's say you have the following controls on your report criteria form:
txtStart: text box, formatted as a date.
txtEnd: text box, formatted as a date.
lbxMulti: multi-select list box.
cmdOpenReport: command button used to open the report.
The text boxes are used to filter the date/time field DateField, and the list box to filter the number field SomeField.
The report to be opened is rptReport.
The On Click event procedure for the command button could look like this:
Private Sub cmdOpenReport_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
Dim strIn As String
Dim varItm As Variant
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
If Not IsNull(Me.txtStart) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " AND [DateField]>=#" & Format(Me.txtStart, "yyyy-mm-dd") & "#"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtEnd) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " AND [DateField]<=#" & Format(Me.txtEnd, "yyyy-mm-dd") & "#"
End If
For Each varItm In Me.lbxMulti.ItemsSelected
strIn = strIn & "," & Me.lbxMulti.ItemData(varItm)
Next varItm
If strIn <> "" Then
' Remove initial comma
strIn = Mid(strIn, 2)
strWhere = strWhere & " AND [SomeField] In (" & strWhere & ")"
End If
If strWhere <> "" Then
' Remove initial " AND "
strWhere = Mid(strWhere, 6)
End If
DoCmd.OpenReport ReportName:="rptMyReport", View:=acViewPreview, WhereCondition:=strWhere
Exit Sub
ErrHandler:
If Err = 2501 Then
' Report cancelled - ignore
Else
MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation
End If
End Sub
If SomeField is a text field instead of a number field, change the line
strIn = strIn & "," & Me.lbxMulti.ItemData(varItm)
to
strIn = strIn & "," & Chr(34) & Me.lbxMulti.ItemData(varItm) & Chr(34)

Do you mean displaying a multi-select enabled select list as a drop-down list rather than as a list box? If so, this is not possible using standard APEX/web browser controls.

On button click of Infopath forms select multi select list box values...

Hi,
We have multi select list box on one of the info path forms. We have placed on button on this form. If user clicks on this button we want to select some of the values in Multi select list box (check box).
Is it possible if yes how can we achieve it?
Thanks.
Regards,
Amit Chhatbar

Hi Amit,
From your description, you would like to check items in a multi-selection box when a button is clicked.
I’d recommend you make use of rules in InfoPath form, i.e. when button is clicked, then set a field’s value.
However, if you are using multi-selection box, then you could only set the value of one item at a time. If you want to select several items at once, then we could use code. For more information:
http://www.bizsupportonline.net/blog/2009/07/understanding-multiple-selection-list-box-infopath/
http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2007/programmatically-select-all-items-multi-select-list-box.htm
If you are using several check boxes to replace multi-selection box, then it will be more easy. The rule could be that when this button is clicked, set a field’s value (check box field) to true and repeat it.

Select multiple values in mult-select list

I have the following query as the source for a multi-select page item:
SELECT person.person_id
FROM person, pers_proj_task
WHERE pers_proj_task.person_id = person.person_id
AND pers_proj_task.project_id = :P3_PROJECT_ID
The query returns two records and the page item's session value is 4:3, but only the value 4 is highlighted in the mulit-select list. How can I get both values to be highlighted?

Got it to work for a multi-select item by following Dimitri's post which uses a shuttle example. It was still only highlighting one value, but I tried Patrick Wolf's suggestion from the comments on Dimitri's post to put the pl/sql block in the source of the item rather than as a computation and it worked.
So I now have a multi-select list which has default values pulled from a LOV. The items that are highlighted by default are selected by using the following pl/sql block in the "source/value or expression" of the :P3_PERSON_ID multi-select item:
declare
person_list apex_application_global.vc_arr2;
i number := 1;
begin
for r in ( SELECT person.person_id
FROM person, pers_proj_task
WHERE pers_proj_task.person_id = person.person_id
AND pers_proj_task.project_id = :P3_PROJECT_ID)
loop
person_list(i) := r.person_id;
i := i + 1;
end loop;
return APEX_UTIL.TABLE_TO_STRING(person_list,':');
end;
Thanks to Amanda, ArtS, Dimitri and Patrick.

Multi-Select Page Item in Application Item

I have a multi-select page item that I need to copy to an Application Item (for AJAX select). I have a js function that does the following:
get.add('REFRESH_LOV_FK_SCHOOL',pSchool.value);
It only seems to copy the first value (before the ':') of the multi-select list to the application item. I verified this with the session state of both the page items and application item. Is there a reason it only copies the first value?

Bob
In your JS function you have declared the formal parameters as pSchool,pYear,pApp. However the code in the function references 'PSelect' I shall assume that you meant 'PSchool' <script>
function get_select_list_xml1(pSchool,pYear,pApp){
var l_Return = null;
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSchool);
var schoolVal=$f_SelectValue(pSchool.id);
alert ('values=' + schoolVal);
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,
'APPLICATION_PROCESS=' + pApp,0);
get.add('REFRESH_LOV_FK_SCHOOL',schoolVal);
get.add('REFRESH_LOV_YEAR',pYear.value);
gReturn = get.get('XML');
if(gReturn && l_Select){
var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option").length;
l_Select.length = 0;
for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option");
appendToSelect(l_Select, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'),
l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
get = null;
</script>

Pass values fromSharePoint list multi-selection list box to Infopath Multi-selection list box and back

Design overview:
List A
InfoPath Library - Form A
SharePoint Designer workflow
List A has a multi-selection column with multi-values.
Form A has fields populated from the data in List A by using a data connection in the form. I have a workflow that updates the values or creates a new item in List A. All fields work except the mufti-selection. The multi-selection has ;# separating
the values and I am having trouble setting the list box properly(checking of the selecting values) instead it concats all values on one line. I basically need to get the multi-selection column from list 1 to show exactly in the Form A and be able to
update the selection with the workflow. I can do this with single values with no problem. the multi-selection list is difficult. I read somewhere I can use a repeating table but I am not sure the workflow will work with that. That is only a read and not
a write.

Wow over my head a little. I understand what an array is with script but not how to write the script to handle it. I made this:
event.value = getField("LISTBOX").value;
But still no change in the behavior with multi selections. Example below if you want to check it out.

Implementing multi-select lists in Oracle Forms

Can anyone of you please tell me how to do multi select list in forms. I used picklist.fmb from oracle demo forms but it is not working fine. If someone could provide a working form I will be grateful to them.
My mail id is [email protected]

Some years ago I wrote (using Forms6i) utility MSLOV for such purposes, and even wrote an article about using it, but, of course, in Russian :-)
I successfully use it in my Web Forms6i project and also test it in C-S Forms6i and Forms9i.
If someone interesting, I also have short english usage description.
It will be nice to hear your comments.
At first, you need a code, which can be downloaded from http://www.geocities.com/luzanovp/mslov.html
At the end of article there is a link to mslov.zip. Get it.
Compile MSLOV.fmb and MSLOV.pll
Run demo forms: EMP_DEMO.fmb, ORD_DEMO.fmb and see how it works.
It requires Scott's tables: emp, dept, ord, item, product. You can create these tables from demobld.sql
Below description about how to use it.
You can show to user only one column, actually it can be expression (so, you
are not limited here to one database column only ).
Specify this column/expression by label_in parameter to fp_mslov.show_lov
For example, if EMP table contains first_name and last_name columns and
you want to show to the user full name do this:
IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
   label_in => 'first_name || '' '' || last_name',
Parameter id_in - this is what will be returned to you as a developer after user
made his choice.
For example, you want to receive array of EMPNO:
IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
   label_in => 'first_name || '' '' || last_name',
   id_in => 'empno'
In some cases you need to return more that one column.
You can specify up to five additional columns for such purposes.
For example, you want to return not only EMPNO, but also SAL and COMM columns:
IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
   label_in => 'first_name || '' '' || last_name',
   id_in => 'empno',
   col1_in => 'sal',
   col2_in => 'comm'
Also, you can use expressions in place of these columns:
   col3_in => 'sal + NVL(comm, 0)'
From which table we must query?
How to order by or specify some conditions(Where clause)?
Where the place for GROUP BY?
For all these questions you must use from_clause_in parameter.
In our example we will query emp table and want order by salary in descending
order:
IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
   from_clause_in => 'FROM emp ORDER BY sal DESC',
Parameter title_in to fp_mslov.show_lov is a self documented.
This is a title for MSLOV dialog.
So, to invoke mslov utility, we construct such call:
IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
   label_in => 'first_name || '' '' || last_name',
   id_in => 'empno',
   col1_in => 'sal',
   col2_in => 'comm'
   col3_in => 'sal + NVL(comm, 0)',
   from_clause_in => 'FROM emp ORDER BY sal DESC',
   title_in => 'Select employees'
THEN
This function fp_mslov.show_lov will return TRUE if user made selection and
FALSE if user press CANCEL (similar to SHOW_LOV builtin).
Now, if it return TRUE we need to process returned rows (selected by user).
I store it in global record group.
But to work with this record group, you can use fp_mslov package, which
provide desired API for this purpose.
At first, you need to declare a variable of FP_MSLOV.OUT_RECORD_TYPE type.
Actually this is a record type declared in fp_mslov package specification.
DECLARE
   returned_rec FP_MSLOV.OUT_RECORD_TYPE;
To process selected rows we need a loop from 1 to a number of selected rows.
Such number can be received by fp_mslov.rowcount function:
FOR i IN 1 .. fp_mslov.rowcount
LOOP
END LOOP;
To return one row we can use fp_mslov.get_row function.
FOR i IN 1 .. fp_mslov.rowcount
LOOP
   returned_rec := fp_mslov.get_row(i);
END LOOP;
Now, you can do what you want with returned row.
RETURNED_REC record has the following fields which correspond to parameters of
the
fp_mslov.show_lov function: id, col1, col2, col3, col4, col5
You know that in id field will be empno column, in col1 -> sal, etc
So, you can process them:
FOR i IN 1 .. fp_mslov.rowcount
LOOP
   returned_rec := fp_mslov.get_row(i);
   message('Empno: ' || returned_rec.id);
   message('Sal: ' || returned_rec.col1);
   message('Comm: ' || returned_rec.col2);
   message('Sal+Comm: ' || returned_rec.col3);
END LOOP;
Remember that returned values always are varchar2 values.
So if you need, for example, a date you need explicitly convert it to char when
invoking
fp_mslov.show_lov and then (after fp_mslov.get_row) convert it to date with the
same format mask.
For example:
   IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
      col4_in => 'TO_CHAR(hiredate, ''DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS'')',
   ... TO_DATE(returned_rec.col4, 'DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS');
To clear memory structures which used by global record group and others
variables,
you need to use fp_mslov.clear procedure.
And now all together:
DECLARE
   returned_rec FP_MSLOV.OUT_RECORD_TYPE;
BEGIN
   IF fp_mslov.show_lov (
      label_in => 'first_name || '' '' || last_name',
      id_in => 'empno',
      col1_in => 'sal',
      col2_in => 'comm'
      col3_in => 'sal + NVL(comm, 0)',
      from_clause_in => 'FROM emp ORDER BY sal DESC',
      title_in => 'Select employees'
   THEN
      FOR i IN 1 .. fp_mslov.rowcount
      LOOP
         returned_rec := fp_mslov.get_row(i);
         message('Empno: ' || returned_rec.id);
         message('Sal: ' || returned_rec.col1);
         message('Comm: ' || returned_rec.col2);
         message('Sal+Comm: ' || returned_rec.col3);
      END LOOP;
   ELSE
      NULL; -- User press Cancel
   END IF;
   fp_mslov.clear;
END;

How to un-check everything in a Multi-selection list box in SP2013?

When a radio button is selected/un-selected, i would like to clear all the checkboxes that were checked in a MSLB. I created a rule for the condition but in the action, how to create this uncheck action?
Thank you

yes, that's what I've done but still not working. I even downloaded the sp,
InfoPath 2013 (KB2837648) 32-Bit Edition
and it still doesn't work. In the screen shot attached, ml prefix is for Multi-selection list box. So, in mlImprovement, if the Communication checkbox isn't checked then set the Multi-selection list box, Communicaiton, to blank so it should
show no selection.
In the preview of Infopath 2013, I would check Communication in mlImprovement and then check a couple of checkboxes in mlCommunicaiton. I then uncheck and check Communicaiton in mlImprovement and those previously checked checkboxes remains.
I have been very frstrated working the MLSB infopath 2013. there are other issues that does't work either. Please advise if I'm missing a step here and there, thank you.

Upgrade to 10.1.3.4: Problems with multi-select list

Hi,
We upgraded from BiseSEone (10.1.3.2) to 10.1.3.4 (using BI EE). One of the features we were longing for was the improved multi-select list in the dashboard prompts (with a efficient search support). But after the Installation the multi-select list doesn't work at all. There are no data offered and the frames are missing. What could be go wrong here ? There were no problems during the installation. I told the installation to keep the configurations.
regards
Thomas
Hi guru's,
is there anybody around who experienced a similar phenomenon !!!
