Overridden fields' values not retained after form is saved/reopened

Hi Everyone,
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. I've searched the net, but can't seem to resolve my problem.
The form itself is somewhat complex. If needed, I can get into the details of how the calculation is done, but may save some time if I just explain the problem:
I have 3 drop down boxes on my form that are auto-populated based on what is entered in a series of other dropdown boxes. The user is allowed to change the calculated drop downs to another option if they want.
When the form is saved and reopened, 2 of the 3 drop downs are not retaining the value the user selected if they overrode it. Instead, it's recalculating against the calculation script that's written. Strange thing is that there is 1 of the three drop down retaining it's value perfectly.
Is there anyway I can save the overridden values, or stop it from recalculating and reverting when the form is saved then reopened? I can't set the fields to disabled/read-only either, in case the user needs to override and save again to something else later.
Thanks for any help you can provide!!

Can you email me the document to [email protected] ?

AM is not retained after deployed the custom pages

Hi,
I have two custom pages, Create(page1) and Select Jobs(page2) pages.
In Create page I've a button called Populate Jobs, Once I click the populate jobs button it will navigate to another page. In page2 I'll select list of jobs using multiple selection.
Once multiple jobs selected I'm validating those jobs(lines) already added to the page1 when click submit button (available in page2).
Both pages have same AM and I'm retaining AM when I move from page1 to page2. In page 2 if click submit button I try to get all the existing lines which is arendered in page 1.
But i'm getting zero count but records are there. It is working very fine in my machine before deployment. But the AM is not retained after deployed to apps.

Hi.
Try adding some debugging statements using write diagnostics .
Check to see if VO is getting cleared on loading 2nd page.
Alternate solution would be to add these line id's of the selected lines before forwading.
On 2nd page, get these Id's and do whatever necessary.

How to fix "OS X Lion user's custom preferences are not retained after reboots"?

How to quickly fix "many of user's custom preferences from within OS X Lion 10.7.x and/or MtLion 10.8.x are not retained after Mac reboots and/or log-offs"?

If many of the user’s custom preferences from within OS X Lion 10.7.x and/or Mountain Lion 10.8.x are not retained on Mac after reboots and/or log-offs, then implement this following QUICK FIX procedure:
Login to user’s OS X login profile… access & select the Finder pull-down menu Go… next select Library (just user’s Library only available when holding-down the Option key here within OS X Lion + MtLion)… find-select-and move the Preferences folder out from the overall user’s Library to the user’s Desktop area for temporary safe keeping. Then log-off user and/or reboot Mac… log-in as user, and reset all user’s custom preferences (System Preferences, Dock icons, etc. [OS X system now recreating all user’s login profile preferences]) according to their previous Desktop setup. Finally reboot after making all new user preferences setting changes… log-in again as user, and check to ensure that all user custom preferences now stays retained. If all OK, then you may move the corrupted Preferences folder from the user’s Desktop area to the Trash for final deletion.
*NOTE: Is this above-written QUICK FIX completely acceptable to Apple's OS X Lion + MtLion troubleshooting standards? So far this solution appears to have fixed a recent iMac user's issues with custom preferences.

Powershell script to update a field value (recursively) in sharepoint form a .CSV file and not changing the updated by value

need to run through a list of old to new data (.csv) file and change them in a sharepoint list - can not make it work
here is my base attempt.
$web = Get-SPWeb site url
$list = $web.lists["List Name"]
$item = $list.items.getitembyid(select from the items.csv old)
$modifiedBy = $item["Editor"]
#Editor is the internal name of the Modified By column
$item["old"] = "new from the .csv file parsed by power sehll
$ite.Syste,Update($false);
$web.Dispose()

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update SharePoint field value from a CSV file recursively.
We can import CSV file using the Import-CSV –path command, then update the field value in the foreach loop.
Here is a code snippet for your reference:
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$csvVariable= Import-CSV -path "http://sp2010.contoso.com/finance/"
# Destination site collection
$WebURL = "http://sp2010.contoso.com/sites/Utility/"
# Destination list name
$listName = "Inventory"
#Get the SPWeb object and save it to a variable
$web = Get-SPWeb -identity $WebURL
#Get the SPList object to retrieve the list
$list = $web.Lists[$listName]
#Get all items in this list and save them to a variable
$items = $list.items
#loop through csv file
foreach($row in $csvVariable)
#loop through SharePoint list
foreach($item in $items)
$item["ID #"]=$row."ID #"
$item.Update()
$web.Dispose()
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

Dynamic radio button fields do not display again after form is saved

Hello,
I have a group of radio button questions within a dynamic form that display additional questions based on the answer.
So for the question "Is there a basement?" if the user indicates yes, there is a basement, additional questions are displayed to gather more information about the basement. If the user indicates no, then those questions do not appear.
Everything works beautifully in the form. However, when the form is saved and then re-opened, the additional questions do not appear in the form. So the structure goes from this:
To this:
The users must toggle the radio buttons to make those questions reappear...and when they do reappear, they have maintained whatever answer the user indicated before saving.
I'm not sure why this is happening...does anyone have any advice?
Thank you,
Theresa

Hi,
Thanks so much for your response! I am using Designer 8.2.1.
I just played around with more of my form...this seems to happen whenever I am working with a hidden subform that is displayed when the user clicks a button (or selects the appropriate radio button). I have a couple of other places within my form where this occurs.
Here is an example of the script on one of those buttons:
var intNewIndex = form1.construction_type.const_type_repeat.instanceManager.count-1;
form1.construction_type.resolveNode("const_type_repeat[" + intNewIndex + "]").percentage.presence="visible";
const_type_repeat.instanceManager.addInstance(true);
The script on the radio button is:
if (basementyes.rawValue == 4){secondwd.sump.presence ="visible"
secondwd.sumpradio.sumpyes.presence ="visible"
secondwd.sumpradio.sumpno.presence ="visible"
else {secondwd.sump.presence = "hidden"
secondwd.sumpradio.sumpyes.presence = "hidden"
secondwd.sumpradio.sumpno.presence ="hidden"
I am pretty new at this so it might be something obvious...thanks again for your help!

Changing field values in a Interactive form

I am trying to modify the fields of a Interactive form after the user presses the go button. The following code appears in my onSubmit method.
IPrivateIntPDFv1View.IPDFDataElement element = wdContext.nodePDFData().createPDFDataElement();
element.setForename("Wrighty08");
wdContext.nodePDFData().bind(element);
When I then get the byte[] in the following code it does not have the changes I made above however the changes do appear on screen when the program finishes. Any ideas?
IPrivateIntPDFv1View.IContextElement contextElement = wdContext.currentContextElement();
ByteArrayInputStream byteInput = new ByteArrayInputStream(contextElement.getPDFObject());
Thanks,
Ellis

I am trying to get the byte[] with the new values set. The implementation of the byte[] retrieval is in the submit-method. But just before I get the byte[] I am trying to change some values in the interactive form.
So first I run this code to change the value of a given field in the interactive form.
IPrivateIntPDFv1View.IPDFDataElement element = wdContext.nodePDFData().createPDFDataElement();
element.setForename("Wrighty08");
wdContext.nodePDFData().bind(element);
Then I get the byte array as follows.
IPrivateIntPDFv1View.IContextElement contextElement = wdContext.currentContextElement();
ByteArrayInputStream byteInput = new ByteArrayInputStream(contextElement.getPDFObject());
The problem is that the changed values are not in the byte[].
Thanks,
Ellis

MP3 song information not retained after iTunes 7.0 - ID3 tags at fault?

I'm having some strange problems with track information in iTunes. I first noticed it when I tried to copy some mp3's from my Mac to my mobile phone: certain tracks did not retain the song information, like artist, album etc., while others did.
A similar problem has been discussed in this post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3698498
However, my problem seems to be a little bit more specific.
If I look at the music in my library in iTunes, all the track information is there. However, for MP3's encoded after 16th October last year, the "Imported With" field, using Get Info, is shown as "Unknown". Before this date, it is shown as "iTunes v7.0". For all MP3's the ID3 version is v2.2.
I believe that I must have upgraded to iTunes 7.0.1 around this time, since I have a number of Apple Lossless audio files which have also been imported and don't show this problem.
The main problem is with the file ID3 tag information (I think). If I select one of the problem tracks, find the original file, open it up in Quicktime and "Get Info", no track/album/artist/composer information is displayed. This is NOT true for 1) MP3's encoded before 16th October 2006 and 2) Apple Lossless files encoded at any time.
In other words, the track information for songs encoded with iTunes 7.0.1 and later is either encoded in a way that no other application can read, OR is only being stored in the iTunes playlist, NOT the file itself. I can see all the track information for these problem files on my iPod, but NOT my mobile phone (where I have to manually copy them over), even if I drag and drop them directly from iTunes.
I have this problem with Quicktime, my mobile phone music player and RealPlayer, so I'm assuming it's "system wide". It even occurs if I copy a problem file out of my music folder and onto the the Desktop, then manually add the track to iTunes: all the song information has disappeared.
I have all my music stored on an external hard disk - 160GB Freecom ToughDrive formatted as HFS+. Previously it was stored on an external disk formatted as FAT32, but copying the files over to the new disk didn't change the problem.
I considered using the "convert ID3 tags" option to see if it would make a difference, but both the good and bad files are listed as using v2.2. I also don't understand enough about them to feel confident converting them to something different - perhaps to v2.3 or v2.4 - just to see if it makes a difference.
Any information on how to "recover" the missing information (for anything other than iTunes) would be greatly appreciated!
MacBook Pro 17" 2.16 GHz 2GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.9) iTunes 7.1.1

Okay, some more information as I try and track down the source of the problem.
By using an id3 tag editing program - ID3 Editor - I was able to view the song information for each track, even though all the other music players I had tried would not show it. If I then chose to modify and update the ID3 information, this would somehow modify the tags in such a way that they become readable in all other programs.
I tried using the "Convert ID3" tags option in iTunes, just on a whim, but without any success. Saving the song information in ID3 Editor doesn't change the version of the ID3 tag - it's still listed as v2.2 in iTunes - but it DOES make it readable in other programs. I also tried the various text conversion options, again without any success.
This looks to me like a bug in iTunes. While its possible for me to get around it, in an extremely long winded way, I still can't understand why iTunes would be writing ID3 information that other Apple programs cannot read.
Any suggestions? Should I be posting this question in a different forum perhaps?

How to Supply the form field values to a pdf form when loading it

I am working on a web site project using Asp.net where the user has to fill in a PDF eform in acrobat reader. Then when he clicks on submit it returns to my asp.net app and the PDF form supplies the values back to my asp.net app. So my asp.net app has the values that were filled in the PDF form and can save those values and work with them...
OK.
What I need to know is when I am in my asp.net app, and the user wants to go back and reopen the same form, from my asp.net app..... then how do I pass back the values that were saved back to the PDF form??
I know if I had a way to pass the values to the PDF form in some way then in the Doc.open or doc.load event of the form I could easily write a little javascript to plug in the values in the PDF form fields.
but how do I pass those values from my asp.net app to my PDF form???
thanks

Thanks bcweed for all the info. I fixed my problem, it had something to do with LiveCycle Designer. If I just use Acrobat to add the form fields, then the FDF works fine. As to your situation with the SavToBuf, that happens to be the method that I am using, so I will just post my code here, and maybe you can pick out what is different from yours. The Response.BinaryWrite(FDFin.FDFSaveToBuf)is at the bottom.

Notes deleted after form is rejected

I have a form that includes a Notes field to which users can append notes. After 1) a note is added, 2) the approval status is changed to "rejected," and 3) a new note is added (putting
the form back into "pending" status), the previous note disappears.
Example:
Created form
Added
note 1
Rejected request
Added note 2. After this note was saved,
note 1 disappeared.
Added note 3
Added
note 4
Rejected request
Added note 5. After this note was saved,
note 4 disappeared.
At this point only notes 2, 3, and 5 are displayed on the form. Notes 1 and 3--the ones right before the rejection--have been lost, and aren't even in the version history of the form. I tested this
with approving the request and the notes remain, so the only issue is with rejection causing the latest note to be removed.
This is frustrating because bits of past correspondence are getting erased, and can't be referred back to.

it sounds like you're losing a version when you reject a form and returning to the previous version. You should confirm this by checking the version history before rejecting a form.
Do you have a workflow on this or is it using the OOTB approval workflow?

Field value not getting updated in R/3

Hello Experts!!
I am facing a problem while updating a field value back in R/3.
The Syncbo is of type U01 and the field has data type char 40.
The meRepMeta.XML file has following description
Field name="DESCR1" type="C" length="40" decimalLength="0" signed="false" isKey="false" isIndex="false">
<Input type="modify">false</Input>
1) when i test the function module in R/3. The field value is gets updated.
2) when i create a record for the sync BO from client , i can see the field value being created on the client.
3) when i synchronize, i dont get any error or warning and get a successful message.
S 15.07.2008 12:19:09 All updates for one TOP block were successful (seq. no.=65, TOP cntr.=0000000001)
15.07.2008 12:19:09 Synchronizer UPLOADER completed successfully (mobile ID=0000002646, SyncBO=ZDBMSERORD)
I am not able to locate where is the problem
Please suggest!!
Regards,
Priya Ghosh

Hi,
please check your maping in the create handler in MEREP_SBUILDER. Perhaps the value is created on the client but not mapped to the field of the function module. Furthermore have a look into MEREP_MON and see if the data gets forwarded in there.
At last I would dump the information received by the function module into a table without any logic. So you can see what data actually is forwarded into the funct module - if brake point i not possible.
Hope this helps.

Oliver
