My Prompt back ground colour changes during run time in Client / Server Env

Dear Friends, 
 My Prompt of text items are changing its back ground colour according to the Text item's back colour during runtime. This doesn't look good. My look and feel of my application gets spoiled due to this. I tried with Visual Attribute (both prompt & Text item) but of no use. I don't want to use text label as I want to change the prompt during run time. Please help me.

My version of forms is Forms [32 Bit] Version 6.0.8.8.0 (Production).

Dear Kevin,
Yes I agree with you, but in my case as this application supports bilingual (English & Arabic), I want to change the prompt of the text at run time. Can I change the text of boilerplate text at runtime?
Thank you for your reply.

How to update and save values changes during run time

I have string and numeric controls on my front panel that the operator can change the values of and was wondering if there was any way to save these changes everytime the vi was closed so they would stay current???
thanks

If you want to change the default settings, its a little involved, mainly because your editing a control's settings while in 'run' mode, but study the example in the below link to get you going.
Another method is to write your values in a text file. This could be part of your closing routine before actually stopping the VI's run. Then, upon the next running of the VI, your initiating routine would involve reading the text file to populate your controls/indicators. I often use these text files because users can easily view them with Wordpad, etc., as needed, without needing labview on their PC.
Good luck with it, Doug

How to Refresh JTree if a file System got changed during Run-time

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to refresh a JTree(javax.swing.JTree) used for displaying file system(both local and remote).
I'm getting a problem if a file/directoy is added to the file system, after my Applet is loaded. Actually, i have used DefaultTreeModel's reload() method for refreshing and calling it inside SwingUtilities.invokeLater() using Thread, but its not working.
I want that the tree should reflect the latest Files/Directories on the click of a node, if any file or directory is added under that node.
Plz tell me if this is possible or not.
Thanks

Hi Shay_te,
Thanx for ur reply as i was eagerly waiting for the one.
but the example is using the TreeTable
and i have used JTree and DefaultTreeModel.
I'm calling reload(node) within treeExpand() method
Then, i'm regestring addTreeModelListener() as
m_model.addTreeModelListener(new javax.swing.event. TreeModelListener(){ }
inside which all 4 methods are over-ridden
code snippet is as follows so plz help me and tell if this the right way:
class DirExpansionListener implements TreeExpansionListener{
        DirExpansionListener(){
        public void treeExpanded(TreeExpansionEvent event) {
            final DefaultMutableTreeNode node = getTreeNode(event.getPath());
            final FileNode fnode = getFileNode(node);
            Thread runner = new Thread() {
                public void run() {
                    if (fnode != null && fnode.expand(node)) {
                        Runnable runnable = new Runnable() {
                            public void run() {
                                try{
                                   m_model.reload(node);
                                    m_model.addTreeModelListener(new javax.swing.event.TreeModelListener() {
                                        public void treeNodesChanged(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt) {
                                        public void treeStructureChanged(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt) {
                                            System.out.println("Path of node changed->"+evt.getTreePath());
                                        public void treeNodesInserted(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt) {

                                    //fnode.expand(node);
                                }catch(Exception e){System.out.println("err :" +e);}

What is the back ground job when we run an Attribute Change run ?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Raj,
1. If the attribute change run is triggered through process chain the job name is 'BI_PROCESS_ATTRIBCHAN'
2. If the change run is triggered from RSA1> tools?Appl Heirarchy/Attribute changerun then the job name starts with BI_STRU*
3. If you trigger the program RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN from SE38 then the job name will be RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN

How to change the back ground colour of the firefoxweb page

I tried to upgrade Fire fox Mozilla as requested from the home page.. but it did not complete.
When I went to surf the net the background screen colour was Black and now I could not see the web pages clearly, as some writing is in colour and does not stand out against the black background.
It used to be a dark pink which was horrible when I used to view some web pages such as Ebay.. can anyone help change the back ground colour on the home page of Firefox.

Select serial comm port in sub vi during run-time

Hi, would like to be able to select the comm port (serial RS232) in sub vi to use in main vi during run time. How can I do this? Have tried and failed, for on startup an error occurs because I have not selected a port yet. An example would be invaluable! Thanks alot, Madri

Hi Madri !
What you could do is to intercept the com errors, and open a configuration vi either if there is an init error or if the user has pressed a "Change port" boollean (or menu...). Do not forget to close the previously opened serial port, and to open/init the new one. I have attached a small example of this idea.
Of course com errors can have various origins, and do not require always to change the serial port. So, you have some additional work to do.
Hope this helps

Variable Creation During Run Time

Is there anyway to create new instances of variables during run time based off of user input from a command line prompt. Thnx~!

Depends what you mean .. if you mean the user can type "a = 8", and it creates a variable "a" with the value 8, then no.
But you can implement something very similar using a HashMap. Use put("a", new Integer(8)), or whatever, and then get it out later with get("a").

Datatypes and names of columns of recordgroup during run-time

Hi everyone,
Can you please tell me that Is it possible to get the datatype and name of columns of a recordgroup during run-time or not. So that I don't waste my time in searching for this solution. If you are not getting my question then please let me know but I need this help very badly.
Thanks
Subodh

After the call of the methods GET_COLUMN_WIDTH or GET_ROW_HEIGHT
You need to add this command :
CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.
This will send back from the SAPGUI to your ABAP program the new values.
Found in this Thread : Method GET_ROW_HEIGHT

Update Indicator label during Run time

Hi all,
This is the situation, i have an Indicator to display Acceleration, Velocity & Displacement. I am using it a local variable in the 2 case structures.
Here is what i want to achieve:
I want to update the Indicator label for the respective Radio Button control. If the click on Acceration button, the label should be updated to Acceleration during Run time. Correspondingly for Velocity and Displacement button.
Can anyone help me how to go about this.
Excuse me if i am not clear about anything.
Thanks in advance

Generally you should not change the label of a control, because this is often how the control is referred to from elsewhere in the program and it causes confusion.
Instead there is a Caption property. If you right click the control and select Visible Items->Caption, the label is hidden and the caption is displayed instead (with the same text).
In your block diagram, right click on the chart terminal and select Create->Property Node->Caption->Text. This creates a property node for the caption property. You will need to click on it to change it to 'Write' rather than 'Read' - you can then wire whatever text string you like and it will update on the front panel.

How to get the Title and Tcode of a Program during run time

Hello,
I am new to abap and I have this question please. Is the a way to get the title, Tcode and Author of a program during run time? I would like to get the name and title of a program or a view or an include during run time.
Using table TADIR, you can only get the object_name and the author. Is the a way for me to get the Title of the repository object and any Tcode if any is available for the case of a program?
I loop forward for your respond.
Thank you.
Sabina

You can get it by accessing SYST.
SY-TITLE for Title
SY-TCODE for Tcode
I don't think there is any field in SYST for the Author.
To get the author name you can use the TRDIR table.

How to change at run-time the type of a step?

Hi,
How topic title, i need to know how change at run-time the type of a step. I have, i my sub-sequence, a step whose type must change at run-time based upon the occurrence of a condition. How can do it?
Thanks.

I need to do this: At verify of a condition, one specific step at the end of sequence must change from statement to numeric limit test and viceversa.
However, is right to no writing self-modifyinf sequence unless handle rece condition on step that i want change at run-time.
Moreover i ask myself: If for change the type of a step i need first delete the substep and later create a new one relative to the step that I want, then it is better and make more sense to create dynamically the step that i would like to have depending on the condition that occurs, right?
Thanks

How to use database control to execute sql queries which change at run time

Hi all,
I need to execute sql queries using database controls , where the sql changes
at run time
based on some condition. For eg. based on the condition , I can add some where
condition.
Eg. sql = select id,name from emp where id = ?.
based on some condition , I can add the following condition .
and location = ?.
Have anybody had this kind of situation.
thanks,
sathish

From the perspective of the database control, you've got two options:
1) use the sql: keyword to do parameter substitution. Your observation
about {foo} style sbustitution is correct -- this is like using a
PreparedStatement. To do substitution into the rest of the SQL
statement, you can use the {sql: foo} substitution syntax which was
undocumented in GA but is documented in SP2. Then, you can build up
the filter clause String yourself in a JPF / JWS / etc and pass it into
the DB control.
For example:
* @jc:sql statement="select * from product {sql: filter}"
public Product[] getProducts(String filter) throws SQLException;
This will substitute the String filter directly into the statement that
is executed. The filter string could be null, "", "WHERE ID=12345", etc.
2) you can use the DatabaseFilter object to build up a set of custom
sorts and filters and pass that object into the DB control method.
There have been other posts here about doing this, look for the subject
"DatabaseFilter example".
Hope that helps...

Hi Maruthi,
The parameter substituion , I guess is used like setting the values for
prepared

What I'm trying to do , is change the sql at run time based on some condition.
For example ,
consider the following query :
select col1,col2 from table t where t.col3 > 1
At run time , based on some condition , I need to add one more and condition.
i.e. select col1,col2 from table t where t.col3 > 1 and t.col4 < 10.
This MAY not address your issue but if you are trying to add "optional" parameters
you may try including ALL the possible parameters in the SQL but send in null
for those params that you don't want to filter on in any particular case. Then,
if you word your query
as follows:
select col1, col2 from table t where t.col3 > 1 and (t.col4 = {col4param} or
{col4param} is null) and (t.col5 = {col5param} or {col5param} is null) ...
you will get "dynamic" filters. In other words, col4 and col5 will only be
filtered if you send in non-null parameters for those arguments.
I have not tried this in a WL Workshop database control but I've used
this strategy dozens of times in stored procedures or jdbc prepared statements.
Good luck,
Dan
