"Multiple Selection Dialog Box" VI Question

I've downloaded the "Multiple Selection Dialog Box" program and it works great, except when I add *.txt to the 'Files of type' array and then save it. I close the program and then reload it again and the change I made is not present...what am I missing?
tks

Right-click on the 'Files of Type' array and select 'Data Operations,' and then select 'Make Current Value default.' Save the VI.
You'll now not lose this on reopening the VI.

  • How can I have multiple-selection list box "select at least one checkbox" option active only when the section it's in is visible?

    Hi, I'm using SP13 and InfoPath2013.
    I created a custom form and published it to SP13 document library.  This form has many MSLB.  Depending on the checkboxes selected in the 1st MSLB, the other MSLB will either hide or show.  Each MSLB is in its own section.  The requirement
    is to have each MSLB to have at least one checkbox selected.  Well, the problem is that when that MSLB isnot checked in the 1st MSLB it is not visible and shouldn't require any checkbox to be selected.  However, the form can't get submitted instead
    an error dialog would pop up and ask user to make a selection for MSLB that is not even displayed.  Is there any way to fix this besides unchecking all MSLB to be not required at least one selection?  Thank you.

    Eric, 
    I follow your reply post here and still doesn't work.  I also noticed your screen shot of selecting a field is not the same as what I see in InfoPath 2013.  
    Here is what I did, 
    1.Check At least one selection required for
    these Multiple-selection List Boxes
    as you want .
    2.Create a Formatting  rule for the 2nd
    Multiple-selection List Box.
    3.Add a  Condition as below:
    4.  I get a validation error if I don't
    select at least one checkbox in the hidden MSLB control when submitting.
    I think I'm following all the steps correctly
    but please let me know if I'm not.

  • File selection dialog box freezes for a few seconds

    When I try to open files / select files from within certain applications (e.g. Aperture, Photomatix) the file selection dialog box freezes for a few seconds which becomes irritating because I can't scroll to the actual file that I want very easily .)
    (I notice the problem generally when I am working in photo editing applications. And yes, I do have some 25MB TIFFs in the target folder...)
    I suppose this is because the finder is "loading" a preview of the files.
    Does this happen to everyone (if so, it would be quite a Windows-like irritation untypical of OSX).
    If not, then what could be going wrong here?

    I have answered my own question by a bit more research.
    It seems a lot of people having this trouble for a while. It is down to Logitech software. Specifically the Logitech Control Center.
    See this forum (last entry):
    http://bit.ly/eEomwp
    The simple solution: uninstall Logitech Control Center. The mouse still works without it.

  • InfoPath 2010 - Multiple Selection List Box - Rule Does Not Run When Unchecking Value

    I have a multiple selection list box on a form. I have a rule that sets the value of another field. There is not condition. Just any time item is checked or unchecked the value of the other field should
    change. This works when checking an item in the list box but not when unchecking the item in the list box. My question is - do rules not fire for a multiple selection list box when unchecking an item?

    Hi,
    I have tested in my lab environment, the rules seemed only fire for the latest checking action, and it did not fire when uncheck multiple-selection list box. Here is a workaround for your reference:
    http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/p/17850/62269.aspx
    However, I’d recommend you use check box instead, since it is much easier to set rule according to value of it. We can set it as true when we check the box, and set it as false when we uncheck it as below:
    Then it is simple and clear to make rule according to the value of check box.

  • How to submit a multiple-selection list box in an Infopath Sharepoint form as multiple entries on a Sharepoint list?

    I would like to be able to submit an Infopath form with a multiple selection list box in Sharepoint as multiple entries on a Sharepoint list.
    For example, a user has to complete the following fields:
    First Name:
    Last Name:
    Favorite Color (can select more than one):
    [] Blue
    [] Red
    [] Yellow
    [] Green
    If the user picks blue AND red and submits the form, the Sharepoint list would feature TWO entries, both with their first and last names, but with different colors in the "Favorite Color" column.
    Please let me know if there is a way to do this. Any guidance would be helpful!

    Hi redhotc,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set multiple default values for a multiple checkbox list in InfoPath form.
    I did a test with SQL database table. I set three default values for the checkbox list by adding three values field under the group field(Data->Default values), each value field is for a default value. Then publish it to my SharePoint site, everything
    was fine.Please have a try as the below link:
    http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2010/pre-select-items-multiple-selection-list-box-infopath-2010.htm
    Note: if you are using SQL databse table, you may need to enable ‘Allow cross-domain data access for user form templates that use connection settings in a data connection file’ in CA. More information, please refer to:

  • Multiple Selection dialog restricted to 5 rows

    Hi All,
    I have defined a select options in my WebDynpro view.
    When I try to enter some value using the Multiple Selection dialog (Extensions)  it only shows maximum of 5 rows.
    If need to enter more data, I just have to press the "insert" button and add new rows.
    But is there a way to populate more than 5 rows initially.
    Or is there a way to give a "Upload from clipboard" functionality when a user needs to enter more than 5 rows of selection input.
    Thanks in advance for your kind help.

    hi Thomas,
    Thank you so much for your quick response.
    But is there a way that I could at least increase the number of visible rows initially?

  • Multiple-Selection List Box Values in Multiple Columns

    I am using InfoPath 2010 with SharePoint 2013. I have a form with a multiple-selection list box which has A LOT of choices. Instead of displaying all the choices in one column, is it possible to display the values of my list box in several
    columns? 

    Hi Andrea,
    I agree with Brij, one multiple-selection list box is associated with one list field, we cannot use the one multiple selection list box value for other multiple selection list boxes, we need to create multiple choices for each multiple-selection list box
    control in InfoPath form.
    Thanks

  • Set focus on item that selected in multiple-selection list box field in infopath

    Hi
    I have  multiple-selection list box field in infopath that have for example 40 items. (I customize sharepoint list with infopath),then
     publish infopath form in to sharepoint list. users want to add new item,when they selected or checked each item in multiple selection list box, after that automatically control focus on first item, but I want to focus remain on that item
    I was selected. Why this happen?! I also set postback settings to “never” in multiple-selection list box properties. But didn’t work.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted  to find several columns based on user selection of checkboxes in one of the Multiple-selection List Box.
    I recommend to customize the form to concatenate values from choice field (with multiple values) into single line text box, and then hide the fields based on the text box value.
    We can follow the steps as following:
    Add a text box control(filed 3) on the form to hold the value selection in the multiple selection list box.
    Set the default value for the text box control as
    substring-after(eval(eval(Value, 'concat(., ";")'), ".."), ";")
    (you need to change the ‘Value’ in the formula to your multiple selection list box name: filed1).
    Add the conditional formatting on the flied: flied 3 does not contain value (you need to change the ‘Value’ in the formula to your multiple selection list box value.).
    In addition, you can add Formatting action to hide the text box control.
    Here are the result screenshots for you to take a look at:

  • Select MULTIPLE default values for a multiple selection list box based on another field in Infopath 2010

    Hello there - Before I explain my issue, I would like to point out that I have reviewed some other discussions on selecting default values for multiple selection listbox. But my issue is specific and different, and not answered by any of the discussions
    I visited.
    I have a multiple selection list box (say for example all countries in the world as values), and I would like to pre-select or setup multiple default values (say five countries) based on some criteria that I query from MS SQL database table.
    I know we can go to Data | Default Values option to setup one or many default values for multiple selection list box. When I enter the default values manually this works. I also right click the field under the Multiple-Selection List Box group, then select
    Add another Value Below and set the Default Value for this field to setup multiple default values.
    However, if I reference a field (either an infopath field or a field from SQL database) I am not able to setup multiple default values. Infopath automatically selects the last field I selected for all instances and in the end I am able to see only one
    default value selected instead of many. How to fix this problem? Why would infopath allow multiple default values when we enter it manually but not when we reference some fields?
    Please let me know if you need more info. Appreciate your help.
    Thanks!
