Multiple Selections in List Box

Hello all. I am new to the Adobe Family and especially PDF designing, so please bear with me. I have gone through the Help section, and did searches on here to find an answer but have not had luck. I need to make a list box that the user chooses multiple choices. As in some forms that have if you hold down the CTRL button you can choose multiple choices. During my searches I keep finding coding lines. I'm not sure how to do coding at all, I'm using the Designer 7 template forms where I can choose the icon, and then go over to Object, Value, etc. Is what I want to do even possible with Designer 7? If so, how can I make this work. If not, what program would I need to use? Thank you in advance for your help!

When I look at either a list box or a drop-down list and look at the "Field" tab I do not see a "Allow Multiple Selection" checkbox. I am using designer version 7.0.041126.0. Is it not supported in this version or am I missing something.
Thanks

Hi forums,
       How to select the multiple values in list box and how to catch that values in OnInputProcessing.
Regards,

Hi,
A possible method is:
Get all fields of the form
    CALL METHOD request->get_form_fields
      CHANGING
        fields = table_fields.
loop over the fields
    LOOP AT table_fields INTO wa_fields.
test the name of the field
      CASE wa_fields-name.
        WHEN 'test'.
retrieve the value of the field
          test = wa_fields-value.
endcase
endloop.

Reg: ADF Select One List box..

Hi,
I have a view object which is associated with application module.
I am dragging onto the form as Select one List box. In the list binding Editor , I have only one data source. When I am trying to specify the Base data source attribute and list datasource attribute , it gives an error
"Base Data Source and List Data Source Cannot Be bound to the same view"
and am selecting the Display attribute as "multiple"
Please Help
Thanks.

Hi,
the base data source is where the selected data is written to. The display data source is from where you get the list data.
You need to have at least two VO for this to work. Next to the display data source there is a button you press to create an iterator binding for the list VO.

Multiple value selection in List Box

Hi Experts,
In the selection screen of a report program, I have created a list box for countries as below:
PARAMETERS p_contry TYPE zcountry AS LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 20 OBLIGATORY. " Country
While executing, I want to select multiple countries using CTRL key. is it possible if so then I can get it.
Thanks
Deep.

Try with something like this:
select-options s_contry for <your table name>-<field name > NO-INTERVALS.
In the selection screen, you can see a button next to the select-option.
If you click on that, you can enter multiple values, ranges, and values to exclude or ranges to exclude.

SetSelectedValue for multiple values in List Box

Hi,
I want to set the selectedValue for multiple values in the List Box. If i use setSelectedValue for all the values, it just highlights the last one.
Can anyone tell me how do i highlight multiple values in the List Box?
Scenario:
I have one screen where the List Box and "Go" button is placed. When i select multiple values in the list box and hit "Go" it should display what i have selected in the List Box.
Note: List Box is generated dynamically.
Thanks,
Naresh V

setSelectedValue as the name indicates will set one value and in your case since you are using it multiple times it would pick the last value.
When the user selects multiple values from the list box and clicks on Go you can capture those values in the controller for processing. What are you trying to achieve by resetting all the selected values on the same listbox ?

Multiple selection in List control using CheckBox as itemrenderer

            I am trying to get multiple selection working in a list control using the CheckBox as itemrederer but I am unable to get a list of selected indices even though I have multiple check boxes selected

Hi there, I'll tweak your code a little bit to something like this:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
                layout="vertical">
    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
             import mx.events.ListEvent;
             import mx.controls.CheckBox;
           [Bindable]
           private var mySelectedIndexes:ArrayCollection=new ArrayCollection();
            private function onChange(e:ListEvent):void
               if(CheckBox(e.itemRenderer).selected){
                         mySelectedIndexes.addItem(e.rowIndex);
               }else{
                              mySelectedIndexes.removeItemAt(mySelectedIndexes.getItemIndex(e.rowIndex));
               chkList.selectedIndices=mySelectedIndexes.toArray();
        ]]>
    </mx:Script>
<mx:ArrayCollection id="collection">
        <mx:Object label="Test A"/>
        <mx:Object label="Test B"/>
        <mx:Object label="Test C"/>

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?

Multiple selection in combo box

Hi,
How to save the selected values (with multiple selection) in to the database from combo box. I made it as multiple selection box by selecting value true for attribute Multiple, but only one value is saving in to database. How to handle it.
Regds,
Sudhakar

I 'll explain the requirement:
I have three tables, for example employee, department and empDept table which contains empId and DeptId. In my jsp, while inserting employee i need to give all existing departments in combo with multiselect option. When user press submit, i need to insert one record in employee, and records in empDept with new empId and all selected Department ids. empId is dbsequence generation.
(I did this through LOV mode of list binding editor. Even i select multiple values in JSP, its inserting only first selected record in to empDept table.)

Allow multiple selections in 2nd box of cf_TwoSelectsRelated

Greetings. I'm very new to ColdFusion, so I apologize if this
seems like a no-brainer.
I've successfully used cf_TwoSelectsRelated to add related
selects to a form. I'm able to have a user select a school, and
have the second select box retrieve only the teachers that are from
that school. Now I'd like to allow multiple teachers to be selected
from the second list (to register for a workshop) and have them all
be inserted in my registration table as individual records.
I think I can figure out the second part of my task (insert
them as individual records) based on
Dan
Bracuk's answer to a query back in February. However, for the
first part (allow multiple selections in the second select list)
I'm not sure whether to:
a) try to edit the cf_TwoSelectsRelated custom tag (I think I
would need to know some JavaScript for that? yipe!)
or
b) do something to my existing code to allow the second
select to have multiple selections (but doesn't cf_select just
require that you specify in the attributes "multiple="true"? which
means I will probably need to edit the cf_TwoSelectsRelated custom
tag (back to *yipe*!)
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I've attached
cf_TwoSelectsRelated. Please let me know if you need me to supply
my code.
Thanks very much in advance.
Marianne

Dear Dan,
Thanks for this! Well, I went ahead and kept trying to figure
it out while I waited - I found and took a look at
cf_ThreeSelectsRelated and the third select box did indeed have a
"multiple" attribute - so I borrowed it and edited the
cf_TwoSelectsRelated (as attached - just added one line to the
attributes list and added one cfif to the cfoutput for the 2nd
select box), called it in the attributes of the
cf_TwoSelectsRelated tag call in my "add attendees" page - and it
seems to work great! No messing about with scary javascript needed.
*whew*
Now I just have to edit the code to allow it to insert each
set of id's as an individual record... but I think I can handle
that :)
Hopefully this will help someone who's wondering if this will
work. I couldn't find any reference to it anywhere!

Multiple selections for List on Mac

It seems multiple selections for java.awt.List on Mac OS X is not working, or do I need to use special buttons to select?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm experiencing the same issue on our CUCM 9.1.2.10000-28 & CUP&IM 9.1.1.30000-3: I have a Jabber for Windows client v9.7 that should only show 1 hardware phone, but it shows 2 entries. I checked the above and still we have 2 entries (also after clearing the Jabber cache). Also I tried another Jabber for Windows version (v9.6), but it always pulls 2 hardware phones in it's config.
Have you managed to get this solved? We use Cisco 8945 phones where end users log on via Extension Mobility. I noticed in Dependancy Records that we have an entrie in Extension Mobility Dyncamic, which shouldn't be the case because no end user is logged on, but it shows it in Dependancy Records... A bug?? And when the end user logs on an IP Phone, then we have twice Extension Mobility Dynamic entries... Not good since only 1 device is in use via Extension Mobility (multiple logins are disabled via parameter).

Multiple Selection with JCombo Box

I want to make a multiple - selection JComboBox enables the user to select many items from JComboBox and copy items from one JComboBox to another.How can I do this?

Hello,
ComboBoxModel allows only single selection. It's better to use a JList instead because it isnt worthwhile the effort to create another multi-selection model.

Query about multiple selection of List item in forms 6

How can I select multiple elements from a list item in Forms 6?

the very simple strategy to do is to call removeAllItems() method for the 2nd combox box and then insert the contents. this is because the validate() method is not repeatedly called and so the contents are not updated immediately.
