Need to add new Text Field on the Screen

Hi,
I am using Oracle 9 Designer and generating the web pages using web pl/sql language. After I generate the page, my screen looks like this:
Employee id: TextField
Employee Name: TextField
I want to add a comment"(Please enter characters Only" below the Employee ID like the following:
Employee id : TextField
(Please enter characters Only)
Employee Name: TextField
Can anybody help me how to add this in the designer form?
thanks in advance.

You can do this with an unbound item on a View Form. You cannot do it at all for an Insert Form. There is a work around but takes a little explaining for the Insert Form. You need to create a web page from the insert form html, modify it manually. I do it as a simple procedure so it is consistent with the rest of the application. Then all menus, links, etc. need to reference that page instead of the FormInsert procedure in the generated package.
There may be other work arounds. Without knowing more about your requirements, I can't say.

PHP/MySQL: 'Add New' text field from menu in form

I am creating an events posting website. I'm having a hard time finding the right words to describe this, but: I'd like the user to select a venue from the drop menu, but then if it isn't there, to select 'add new' from the dynamic menu, and have a new text field activate where they can enter in the new venue name. My database is currently set up so the event table links to the venue table through a venueID. Is there a way to insert the name from the new text field into the venue table, and have the rest of the form still submit to the event table? Sorry this is so wordy, but I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

You cannot add a new value to a related table at the same time as inserting a record. So, to do this, you would need to use both JavaScript to add the new text field, and PHP conditional logic to handle the update to both tables. It's certainly doable, but not with the Dreamweaver server behaviors. You would need to do a lot of hand-coding yourself.
The way that I approached a similar problem in my "Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS4" was to permit NULL values in the column that holds the foreign key, and insert nothing into that field if the value hadn't already been registered in the related table. I created a static value in the dynamic menu for "Not registered".
After inserting the new record with "not registered", the user then needs to enter the new value in the related table.
Once that has been done, display a page that lists all records. In the SQL, I use a LEFT JOIN to ensure that "not registered" items come up as well. You can then edit the item to add the value from the dynamic menu.
It's not the most elegant way to do it, but it works if you don't have the skill or time to hand-code all the logic yourself.

How to add new text field in standard report

Hi,
I presume you are talking about a report display in ALV and u wish to add a column to it .
If it is a global requirement ,as in table being used there in ALV can be modified, then you can append the table and the system should pick up the same automatically from there.
Otherwise , you can make a Z program . Modify the catalog being used in ALV.

Add new Search Field in the Search Page

Hi all,
I needed to add a new search field in the search page, for the same i appended the search structure and added the required field.
Then in Config i made it available. The field type is input field of type BU_PARTNER.
The issue is when i make the same field display in UI it apears as Blank Drop down, it should come as input field.
I tried to make it input via get-p as well but still it is DDLB.
I also tried via Design layer, but it has not changed to Input.
Please suggest how to proceed further.

Hi Sreehari Annavaram,
Thank you for your kind reply. Based on the answer from the link you have given me (as per below quote), there's no "DEM03" in my selection screen. We only have SAP01, SAP02 and GL001 (customised layout). That's why i had created new customised layout GL002 and try to add the "text" field in layout as per my first question. But system still won't allow it.
*"In F-02 under editing option screen screen templates and line layout variant for document entry will be there in that
GL accounts items for fast entry select DEM03 u will get the text item"*
Appreciate help.
Thank you

Add new text field in Address Book?

I can export my address book using the Address Book Exporter Utility.
However, instead of creating a label with First Last (e.g., Bob Dylan) as stored in Address Book, I would like to use a custom field, Mr. First Last & Family (Bob and Joan Dylan). I know I can make those edits in Excel after the export and send off to my mailing house, but then it isn't saved in Address book.
If I create a custom field (say "Envelope Label") under Related Names, it doesn't export with that utility. Any ideas?

Hai Ramesh ,
Could u please ellobrate the requirement , you need new field to be added in the screen level .

Field Length of the text field on the screen

Hello Experts,,
I have field with its label on the screen. Now the label text is picked up from data dictionary as defined.
Data element       J_3ARQDA                       Active
Short Description: Requested delivery date
Length           Field   Label
Short             10       RqDlv.date
Medium         16       Req.deliv.date
Long              20      Requested deliv.date
Heading         5        Dldat
Now the text in different laguage say russian is quite bigger in length as compared to english ones. Now on the sales order screen i have the text 'Dldat', but the russian user needs a bigger word than just 'Dldat'.
Approach : I changed the heading length to some '25' from '5' to accomedate the russian text in DDIC for data element. But if i have to adjust the same on the screen with new text length i have to extend the screen border as well.
Is this right approach ? If not how do we actually accomedate the other language texts on the screen with out altering the screen borders ( length and breadth).

Hi Radhika,

   Thanks in advance.

what Text field you want to change.
Since you are working with Dynpros , you have to split the screen in two parts, and one for the Showing differenet fonts and other your normal Dynpro information.
you need to use the Method ADD_TEXT Did you check the program DD_STYLE_TABLE.

New Text Field To Be Added in Audit Management

Hi All,
I need to create new text fields in addition to the existing fields in Audit Management screen for all the audit components in the TEXT TAB in transaction PLMD_AUDIT.
I would like to know is it possible or not and if not possible then what is the alternate way to include more inofrmation.
Will be rewarded...
Regards,
Ram.

Hi Ram,
New text field can be added in the texts tab of plmd_audit transaction is achieved by ,
1) The following entries has to be maintained in the view V_TTXIDI Object, Id, Meaning.
Object-select cgpl_text
Id : you need to define(this id you will refer in the initial value of the attribute in the BADI-name of your text field).
Meaning : short description of your BADI.
save your entries & activate it.
2) Implement this BADI "PLM_AUDIT_TEXT_ID"
within the method "GET_TEXT_IDS" we need add our code for adding the new text fields.Within this method the code for standard text fields would be existing.
3) In the attributes tab of the ZCL_DEF_IM_PLM_AUDIT_TEXT_ID -class interface ,you need to pass the initial value,which has been defined in the view "V_TTXIDI".
4) Finally activate your BADI.The newly added text fields would be available in the PLMD_AUDIT tcode.
Hope this solves your requirement.

Keerthi

Trying to add a flowable/expandable text field to the end of a form

I have created a form in LiveCycle Designer. At the end of that form, I would like a Summary text box that expands to allow the person who is filling out the form to type as much information as is necessary and it will all be visible/print when they are done. I have the field to the point where it will expand (finally!) but I have requested that the field allow page breaks (including all subforms it is contained within) but when it expands, it all carries over to the next page and doesn't allow us to go beyond one page of typing. Is there anyway to remedy this situation so the text will actually "flow" from one page to another instead of just carrying it over?

I appreciate you replying to my post and maybe this is just that I have never used the forum before but your reply said that you hoped the sample document would help me and I don't see a sample document attached to the reply. Am I missing something?

Rgds,

How can I get the "text" field from the actionEvent.getSource() ?

I have some sample code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class JFrameTester{
     public static void main( String[] args ) {
          JFrame f = new JFrame("JFrame");
          f.setSize( 500, 500 );
          ArrayList < JButton > buttonsArr = new ArrayList < JButton > ();
          buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "first" ) );
          buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "second" ) );
          buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "third" ) );
          MyListener myListener = new MyListener();
          ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 0 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
          ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 1 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
          ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 2 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 0 ) );
          panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 1 ) );
          panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 2 ) );
          f.getContentPane().add( BorderLayout.CENTER, panel );
          f.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
          f.setVisible( true );
     public static class MyListener implements ActionListener{
          public MyListener() {}
          public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
               System.out.println( "hi!! " + e.getSource() );
               // I need to know a title of the button (which was clicked)...
}The output of the code is something like this:
hi! javax.swing.JButton[,140,5,60x25,alignmentX=0.0,alignmentY=0.5,
border=javax.swing.plaf.BorderUIResource$CompoundBorderUIResource@1ebcda2d,
flags=296,maximumSize=,minimumSize=,preferredSize=,defaultIcon=,disabledIcon=,
disabledSelectedIcon=,margin=javax.swing.plaf.InsetsUIResource[top=2,left=14,bottom=2,
right=14],paintBorder=true,paintFocus=true,pressedIcon=,rolloverEnabled=true,
rolloverIcon=,rolloverSelectedIcon=,selectedIcon=,text=first,defaultCapable=true]
I need this: "first" (from this part: "text=first" of the output above).
Does anyone know how can I get the "text" field from the e.getSource() ?

System.out.println( "hi!! " + ( (JButton) e.getSource() ).getText() );I think the problem is solved..If your need is to know the text of the button, yes.
In a real-world application, no.
In a RW application, a typical need is merely to know the "logical role" of the button (i.e., the button that validates the form, regardless of whether its text is "OK" or "Save", "Go",...). Text tends to vary much more than the structure of the UI over time.
In this case you can get the source's name (+getName()+), which will be the name that you've set to the button at UI construction time. Or you can compare the source for equality with either button ( +if evt.getSource()==okButton) {...}+ ).
All in all, I think the best solution is: don't use the same ActionListener for more than one action (+i.e.+ don't add the same ActionListener to all your buttons, which leads to a big if-then-else series in your actionPerformed() ).
Eventually, if you're listening to a single button's actions, whose text change over time (e.g. "pause"/"resume" in a VCR bar), I still think it's a bad idea to rely on the text of the button - instead, this text corresponds to a logical state (resp. playing/paused), it is more maintainable to base your logic on the state - which is more resilient to the evolutions of the UI (e.g. if you happen to use 2 toggle buttons instead of one single play/pause button).
