Filtering with Multiple Values on same field.
Default, its supports up to ten values for filtering on one field, but i need more than 10 values..
How can i achieve this..
Advance Thanks..
NS

Hi NS,
The "Filter" function could only filter 10 columns by default in list view page ViewNew.aspx and ViewEdit.aspx, the value 10 is hard-coded in these two pages which are located at C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS,
you can look at and increase all the value 10 realted to Filter function, this will make viewnew.aspx and viewedit.aspx show more than 10 filters.
Please firstly back up the orginial files viewNew.aspx and viewEdit.aspx page for a recovery if the file is corrupted by modifying, and do this test in a testing SharePoint environment before touching the production, this modification will affect to all
the SharePoint lists viewNew and ViewEdit page.
Also note that these modifications in the original file may be removed by the SharePoint CU or Service Pack.
Thanks

Creating auto-increment field in SharePoint List

In SharePoint, we can create the auto-incremental field by many ways, I am going to discuss two ways of doing it.
Calculated field
Item Event Receiver
1. Using Calculated field:
Using this we can accomplish it without doing any programing and it is a relatively simple way of doing it. By using “Calculated” column in SharePoint List we can create auto-increment field. We can accomplish this by creating a new column and choosing the
column type as “Calculated (calculation based on other columns)”. And in Formula field, we have to enter [ID]
In fact this will be using the values from “ID” field from SharePoint list that starts from 1.
For example, if we want to start our auto-increment column from 100, we can modify the “Formula” field of Create New column screen, we can have to enter [ID] + 99
For detailed info please follow the blog I wrote here: http://faisalrafique.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/creating-auto-increment-field-in-sharepoint-list/
2. Using Item Event Receiver:
By using this strategy, users have advantage to edit the existing values, we can also avoid it by making field read-only on feature activation. Using item event receiver, on ItemAdded event, we have to find the highest value among previously added items
and then save the incremented value to current newly created auto-incremental column.
For code of event reciever please follow the blog I wrote here:
http://faisalrafique.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/creating-auto-increment-field-in-sharepoint-list/
Happy Coding

Use Sharepoint Designer to create a Workflow for the list containing the field to increment. For my project I had an Invoice field that I wanted to start with 1001 and increment from there so I made the following workflow to do this.
In the new workflow screen in Sharepoint Designer create two actions in Step 1:
Calculate Current Item:ID plus 1000 (Output to Variable: calc)
then Set AutoIncrementNumber to Variable: calc
This is just a guide. If you just want the auto-increment to start with 1 then you can just use this step
Set AutoIncrementNumber to Current Item:ID
Also, make sure you select the correct name for your field in the Workflow action instead of AutoIncrementNumber.
Save the Workflow, close it, and then open it again in Sharepoint Designer. Check the box for "Start workflow automatically when an item is created." Save it again and then click on the Publish button to make it active on the sharepoint site. The value should
now increment for each new item created in the list.

Using InfoPath to make a form that filters multiple rows alphabetically into their according SharePoint Lists.

Hello,
I would like to create a form in InfoPath that looks similar to something you would see in excel, by that mean that I am able to enter multiple lines of data. After I submit the form, the data will be sorted/filtered by the first letter of the brand name
into their appropriate list in SharePoint.
JBL (InfoPath Form) -> (Sharepoint List) "J"
Bose (InfoPath Form) -> (SharePoint List) "B"
Lexicon (InfoPath Form) -> (SharePoint List) "L"
Etc...
I was wondering how I would achieve this? Workflow?
Thanks in advance,
Luke

1. kudos on having JBL be both the first record of sample data, and also the initials of all three records :)
2. within SP, you can create a calculated column for the first character in the string (LEFT(col,1))... you may need to promote the field from IP into the list.

How to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

You can make use of jquery for the same. Add script editor webpart on the page and access the dropdown value and based on the value you get, show or hide the fields. Below are some pointers.

Is there a way to calculate a date field based on aother date field in sharepoint list?

In a SharePoint list, I have a 'Start of Use Date' and need to ensure the 'Review Date' is no more than 14 months after the 'Start of Use Date', but can't figure out the formula. Can you help?

You can cast the field values in the SPListItem to DateTime objects and call the AddMonths(int) function to see if the two are more than 14 months apart. For instance:
DateTime startOfUseDate = (DateTime) item["Start of Use Date"];
DateTime reviewDate = (DateTime) item["Review Date"];
if (startOfUseDate.AddMonths(14) >= reviewDate)
// Review Date IS NOT more than 14 months after Start of Use Date
else
// Review Date IS more than 14 months after Start of Use Date

Create a Lookup for ProjetServer field in SharePoint List item

Hi,
I would like to display values in custom fields of MS Project Server 2010 in Ms SharePoint list 2010. The values ought to be displayed as lookup in a field of Listitem form. I would like to futher query and populate certain fields in New
Items form from Project Server based on the value in the lookup.
I am looking for guidance to implement this. Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

Abhijit,
You could do this by creating an External Column, connected to an External COntent Type from Project Server.
Andrew Lavinsky has several good blog posts on using ECTs in Project Server. Here is an example: http://azlav.wordpress.com/2011/04/05/creating-a-centralized-document-repository-with-external-content-types/

I am using MM at present. All fields are KeyFields here. Should check against each other.
I followed Context setting to the Root Item and Sort, SplitByValue and CollapseContext to achieve the functionality.
But it checks against each field and not all fields. So either one field has different value, only that perticular field gets into New Node and not the entire record. In this case, i might need UDF i guess. Any UDF help is much appreciated

How to set one fixed folder to save rich content of rich text field in sharepoint list

hi friends
i have rich test filed in SharePoint list
if user wants add picture to rich text filed from insert option it is asking to save file in existing document libraries it is showing all libraries.
what i need is how can we fix one particular document library to save all this file from rich text filed.

To my best knowledge, the only basic way to input picture in SharePoint Rich Text Editor (RTE) can be finished in two steps. One, upload it to you computer and then insert it URL to RTE. This works fine if I insert few of them.
Use SharePoint Rich Text Boost, which can let user insert images and Flash directly.

"You must specify a value for this required field" in SharePoint list

HI All,
I have a couple of taxonomy fields in my content type. When I try to add a new item with my content type and save, I'm getting an error message "You must specify a value for this required field" against each taxonomy field. I'm not sure what am
I missing. I deleted the content type and added that again to my list but still no luck. Can someone please help me out? Thanks.
Regards,
SC Vinod

hi
it depends how you updated existing field. We faced with the problem that update of taxonomy site column was not propagated to the lists. In Sharepoint when content type is bound to the list, new hidden content type is created for that list - you may check
it if will enumerate
SPList.ContentTypes property. And when you try to update site column changes may not be propagated to these list content types. In order to update it you need to get reference on a field from list content type and update if explicitly.

Sorting and filtering by select-multi person or group field in the list in SharePoint 2013

Hi everybody,
In SharePoint 2013, I have defined a column as "Person or Group" field, which you allow for multiple selections. when I try to sort/filter it by this field in the list. The field doesn't show up in the dropdown. If I changed "Allow multiple
selections" option to "No" by clicking the column name to edit it in "List Settings", the field can show up sort in the dropdown.
How about support sorting and filter by select-multiple "Person or Group" field in sharepoint 2013?
BTW, in SharePoint 2010, it can support this issue no matter what the "Allow multiple selections" option the request is.
Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Jodie

Hi Jodie,
Can you please give this as a try.
To fix the Filter Issue on Assigned To Column. We need to run the following scripts.
The field which allows more than one values or which allows multiple selections. The multi-valued fileds are non-sortable,
non-filterable. Multi-valued fields cannot be indexed
$web=Get-SPWeb
$list=$web.Lists[] $field=$list.Fields[ColumnName] $strSchema=$field.SchemaXml $str=Schema$strSchema.Replace("Sortable=`"FALSE`"","Sortable=`"true`"")
$field.SchemaXml = $strSchema
Krishana Kumar http://www.mosstechnet-kk.com
Thanks for your reply, I have tried to run the scripts, but it still cannot work. The following is my scripts:

$field=$list.Fields["Applicant"]
$strSchema=$field.SchemaXml
$str=Schema$strSchema.Replace("Sortable='"FALSE'"", "Sortable='"True'"")

please help me

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name" in SharePoint list form using JavaScript.
To set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name”, you can use the below code:
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.9.0.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function SetPickerValue(pickerid, key, dispval) {
var xml = '<Entities Append="False" Error="" Separator=";" MaxHeight="3">';
xml = xml + PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval);
xml = xml + '</Entities>';
EntityEditorCallback(xml, pickerid, true);
function PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval) {
return '<Entity Key="' + key + '" DisplayText="' + dispval + '" IsResolved="True" Description="' + key + '"><MultipleMatches /></Entity>';
function GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField() {
var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var web = context.get_web();
this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
context.load(this._currentUser);
context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
function onSuccess(sender, args) {
SetPickerValue('ctl00_m_g_99f3303a_dffa_4436_8bfa_3511d9ffddc0_ctl00_ctl05_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField', this._currentUser.get_loginName(),
this._currentUser.get_title());
function onFaiure(sender, args) {
alert(args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField, "sp.js");
</script>

Upload Excel data to Sharepoint list VIA infopath form

Hi,
I'll try to explain the process of what I want to do first.
1. In Excel
I have an exceldocument (XLS, XLSX or XLSM) with 4 named columns and a named worksheet saved locally on my computer.
I want to upload this data into preferably a custom list in sharepoint but it needs to run via a infopath template first.
2. In Infopath
The Infopath template will prompt the user to specify values in 2 additional fields.
After giving input to these fields user may browse for the locally stored excel document and upload the document.
In the same infopath template a dynamic array should be visible containing 6 columns (4 from excel + 2 from headerlevel of template) and the amount of rows based on the number of rows from excelsheet.
At the end of template a submit button is found for uploading the entire array into sharepoint custom list.
Is this possible to do at all?
NOTE! End user should not have to save the excelsheet as XML file nor do a XML mapping.
Infopath should, perhaps with help of VBA read excelsheet and transfer data to correct destination in sharepoint on it self.
Looking forward to your reply

Hi Jonas,
You can attach your Excel doucment into InfoPath form and send InfoPath form to a custom web service. Then you can parse the Excel data and combine the Excel data and additional fields into SharePoint list in the customized web service.

Updating a secondary datasource to a Sharepoint list via infopath form rules

Using SharePoint 2010 and InfoPath 2010 I created a form that prior to submission it gets an integer value from a separate SharePoint list via a secondary datasource. Just before the rule that submits the form to a document folder via the
main datasource I increment the integer value and try to write it back to the secondary datasource I got it from. I know that I have the correct value. That is, it is reading from the data source the correct integer information and it is incrementing
it in the form but when it writes the value back to the same column in the same secondary datasource it doesn't give any indication that it didn't work. But when I look at the list of the secondary data source I see that the integer value is
not updated.
