Number of options selected in multiple selection

Hi,
I have a multiple selection, how can i get the number of options selected from this multiple selection?
So that i can change CHART width accordingly?
For example, if i choose one option, chart width = 150
if i choose two options, chart width = 300
thanks for the reply.

Hi
If your using standard charts then I gues the easy way would be to have multiple charts and make them conditional on INSTR(:P_ITEM, ':') + 1, this would give you the number of items in the string generated by the multi-select list.
If you are building XML in PL/SQL then you could do this dynamically in one chart.
You could also try having hidden item defined as INSTR(:P_ITEM, ':') + 1 and then use the &P_HIDDEN_ITEM. substitution in the chart width field. I have no idea if this would work but you could give it a try.

Hi
I have wriiten the code to provide custom F4 help for a field using F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST' and then updating the values back to screen using Function Module DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE.
It is working fine when the F4 is used on the main screen, But when i click on the multiple selection button and press F4, i do get the F4 values list, but selected value is not getting passed back to the field.
I guess the issue is the field name changes in the multiple section option, Please suggest how can i fix it.

You have added the F4 to a select-option for areport and would like to get the F4 values back into the select-option, when the user selects multiple values?
If this is the case you have to fill the internal table behind the select-option and this will have to based on waht the user selected.
The first value will go on to the screen the way you have done it.
If this is what you want to do?

AS:AI:AG:AM these are return value .i want to display NAME in report .
How can i do this ?
Thanks

Short answer, use the apex_util.string_to_table to convert to a table; then you can either iterate through the table to generate a string of names, or accomplish the same with a bulk operation.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21676/apex_util.htm#CHDFEEJD
Encapsulate all this within a pl/sql function.

Trying to retrieve the editValue of a list box selection with multiple selections

I have a requirement to display the text and the value of a multiple choice list box but as soon as there are multiple selections the value displayed is the rawValue.
My code is something like this:
verifSubTaskDescID.addItem(this.editValue);
verifSubTaskDesc.addItem(this.rawValue);
When "this" which is a list box with ["a","first"],["b","second"] is set to a or b it works perfectly, displaying "a" in the ID and "first" in the Desc as follows:
a          first
OR
b          second
but when I select both this list looks like this:
first          first
second     second
Any ideas on how to preserve the letters without making the code too complex or hard to maintain??
Thanks!!!

Hi,
you can use a for loop to get all selected values from a choice list.
This could look like this.
This sample script goes to the exie event of the choice list.
It refers to the dataNode which holds the multiple values.
The for loop the then extracts the selected values and their associated display items.
var r = ""
for i = 0 upto $.dataNode.nodes.length - 1 do
          r = Concat(r, $.dataNode.nodes.item(i).value, " ", $.getDisplayItem(i + 1) )
endfor
Textfield1 = r

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:

Selection Screen - multiple selection screens!!

Hi All,
There is one requirement where in I want my first selection screen to have 7 radio buttons and on selection of each one , there should be specific selection screens displayed. I know that one way to solve this is create multiple programs and call the program on each selection. But is there a way to do it in the same program. Kindly advice.
Thanks & Regards,
Sowmya

Hi,
Instead of different screens you can display the fields on the same screen based on the radio button selection...
Check this example..
PARAMETERS: P_RAD1 TYPE XFELD RADIOBUTTON GROUP G1 USER-COMMAND USR
 DEFAULT 'X',
 P_RAD2 TYPE XFELD RADIOBUTTON GROUP G1.
* SCREEN 1.
PARAMETERS: P_MATNR TYPE MATNR MODIF ID M1,
 P_KUNNR TYPE KUNNR MODIF ID M1.
* SCREEN 2.
PARAMETERS: P_LIFNR TYPE LIFNR MODIF ID M2,
 P_EBELN TYPE EBELN MODIF ID M2.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
IF P_RAD1 = 'X'.
* INVISIBLE THE OTHER SCREEN FIELDS.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
 IF SCREEN-GROUP1 = 'M2'.
 SCREEN-INVISIBLE = '1'.
 SCREEN-INPUT = '0'.
 MODIFY SCREEN.
 ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.
IF P_RAD2 = 'X'.
* INVISIBLE THE OTHER SCREEN FIELDS.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
 IF SCREEN-GROUP1 = 'M1'.
 SCREEN-INVISIBLE = '1'.
 SCREEN-INPUT = '0'.
 MODIFY SCREEN.
 ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.
Please let me know if you have any questions..

Multiple select list selected options

Hello ;
how can i get the selected options of my multiple selected List
Thankyou

Multiple select list is a concatenated double quote delimited string
value_1:value_2:value_3
Where do you (how do you) want to "get" the selected options? You want to use
the selected value where?

Restrict no. of entries in the multiple selection of DOCNUM of EDID4 tab

Hi,
Is it possible to restrict number of entries in the multiple selection of DOCNUM of EDID4 table.
i.e., Select the content button on se11 for EDID4 table. We can see the selection screen of the table. Press the multiple selection button of 'DOCNUM', we get a popup. Is it possible to restrict the no. of docnum entry to 500. If i enter more that 500 entries, it should popup a message.
Please share your ideas. I am working on 4.6c.
Points will be rewarded.
Thank you.
Regards,
Ramesh

Hi Atish,
Thanks for your reply. I checked for BAdis. But I couldnt find. Is there any other ways of doing this?
User is trying to import the docnum values from presentation server file using the 'Import from text file' icon on multiple selection popup. As the no. of docnum were 4500, during the execution of this process, other process trying to connect to oracle is going for short dump with message 'Run-time error (Oracle error code: ORA-4031)'. So user wanted to restrict it to 500.
Hope my explanation is clear.

Ramesh

When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.

Multiple Selection for Tables

HI Team, When I try to select the multiple selection for field Material in table Mara, the To value is not displayed
e.g in table mara if i select the material option from A* to Z*, all the materials are displayed from A until x but no of the materials are displayed starting with Z. I have found this as standard functionality in SAP and happens for all fields with multple selection in tables. can you guys advise if there is an OSS note for this?
Thanks,
Sunny

Hai Sunny,
Please check Do you have material staring with Z
and check is there any
Maximum No. of Hits restriction.
Till you get SAP notes
Create a query in SQVI for only ine table and
MARA and tick mark the selection b fields and fields to be displayed in the report.
Now in the report selection screen you will get TO option as well it will list all the Z materials.

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!

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:
http://answers.flyppdevportal.com/categories/sharepoint2010/sharepoint2010customization.aspx?ID=418b9423-a96c-4e5e-91f9-6a1b010ebb69
I hope this helps.

Multiple Selection on Selection Screen

Hello Friends,
Iam having a selection screen where I can enter a single value or range of values directly into the select-option fields or I can click on Multiple Selection button and enter the single value or Range of values. And whatever I enter in the Multiple selection that is stored in table s_lifnr (because I enter vendor details).
Now, my question is.....Is there any Function Module or any BAPI to get or read all the values of this table into another internal table because I want to use them in another BAPI where I need to pass the range of vendor codes to get list of line items.
So if I could make up an internal table which contains all the vendor codes selected from multiple selection with options like (=,>,<,<=,>=)in single value and (BT, I, E)in Range I can use this table in that BAPI.
Any kind of help is appreciated..
Thanks in Advance..
Regards,
Raju....

Usually, you will want to select the vendors from the database.
data: ilfa1 type table of lfa1 with header line.
select-options: s_lifnr for lfa1-lifnr.
select * into table ilfa1 from lfa1
where lifnr in s_lifnr.
loop at ilfa1.
* do something with all selected vendors.
endloop.

Set the Default Value of the Multiple-Selection List Box field.
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.

Multiple Selection List Box-- Data Display

I want to build a form which reports all of the multiple selections made by users from a list box. When I test the form, only the first selection is reported in the dataset. How do I configure the form so that when data is compiled, each of the selections from the list box is reported in sequence?

LiveCycle Designer forms do not support multiple selections for a listbox. If you want that feature, you will have to use the Listbox and select the "multiple selection" option, the Cmbobox will not work, in Acrobat forms. You will also have process the selection array, it is not a single value.
