Refresh custom list.

Hi,
I have a PriorityQueue-class that extends ArrayCollection which contains a bunch of Task-objects. The priority is checked from timeLeft(), the method converts _date to seconds.
I also got an ItemRenderer-class that extends UIComponent and contains a few labels. One label is: timeLeftLabel.text = data.timeLeft() + " left";
The thing is that I want to refresh the list every 5 seconds or so, this can be done by using a Timer and then call PriQueue.refresh(), this seems to be the wrong approach since I don't want to refresh the whole list and since im using an ArrayCollection as a data provider, it should work - right?
Thanks!

Infopath to design WYSIWYG Custom List Views on 2013

We are migrating to SPO 2013. Playing with InfoPath 2013.
I know it's dieing, but InfoPath has always frustrated me. Some much potential yet so out of touch with what users seem to need IMO. Far from user friendly enough to let users maintain their own forms too IMO.
But really my biggest gripe with SharePoint in general is that it misses the mark with Custom lists and Views.
Why doesn't SharePoint and/or InfoPath address the need for more flexibility and Design options in the Custom List View. My users are constantly looking to build View pages that to reflect paper forms they use to have.  They always seem to
have to settle for the way the list view looks.  InfoPath does not seem to address Read Only Views of List Data ??
- No List Mode (View vs Edit)
- No Label control
- Field Names do not display unless you hover over the control.
- No WYSIWYG drag and drop designer - only grid cells.
- No easy or clear way to get URL Query string values
- No way to build complex expression fields, say I want to build a URL Link using some list field data and the ID from the URL query string on the form? Possible?
- Better/easier way to join and bind in multiple Lists and multiple data sources?
One other challenge we have is that SSRS can't be integrated into SPO and is being dropped from Azure. The SSRS designer is leaps and bounds better than InfoPaths IMO.
Considering SPO 2013, might there be another product or IDE coming in (maybe FoSL) that will address all of these? How about Visio, Excel, PDF
Thank You.

Thank You for your response.
A little of both :)   ... But am very interested in hearing about practical development options. But the catch is that we are waiting to see if something shows up that will enable users to build these views without development.
I have been seeing new Apps show up on the o365 store that look promising, but none of them are quite there yet IMO ... like Ninetex forms, Lightning Data Viewer, BlackCompass Data Viewer, List Designer, OData query Builder. We've
actually demoed every single one of them.
We have also been playing with oData Connections from Excel and Visio web Access Web parts. We can't get Data connections to refresh from Excel apparently unless we buy Power BI and we are still trying to figure out Visio on SPO.
I know we can create a SharePoint 2013 App that binds in SPO List data and use .NET controls to arrange them on a page. But that would put a developer and a deployment process in front of that View. We can also use SSRS and create a one row report
- but SPO does not support integrated SSRS and we would have to authenticate  on-Prem SSRS against ADFS which we have not yet configured here.

How to refresh the list of select one choice which is inside a table?

Hello I am using Jdeveloper Version 11.1.2.1.0.
The table is a normal table that is made to look like a treeTable.
For some rows are or can be parents with Parent_vo_group_id = null and other are children with parent_vo_group_id = vo_group_id of the parent...
If a children changes its parent_vo_group_id to null it can become a parent as well.
I am having a select one choice inside a table column. The list comes from the same table with column Name:
<af:table value="#{bindings.VoGroupAdminView2.collectionModel}" var="row"
                                                  rows="#{bindings.VoGroupAdminView2.rangeSize}"

        BindingContainer bc = BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();

        am.getTransaction().postChanges();
        am.getVoGroupAdminView2().executeQuery(); //refresh the table view object;
        am.getVoGroupAdminLov1().executeQuery(); //refresh the list of values view object
        voGroupAdminIterator.invalidateCache(); //remove the cache of the iterator
        voGroupAdminIterator.setCurrentRowWithKey(selectedGroupKey.toStringFormat(true)); // set the selected row again.
        RichSelectOneChoice soc =

        AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(soc);
        AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(this.groupTable);
    }When i am adding a new row to the table its select one choice list is refreshed but only for the new row. The rest rows have not updated list of values for their select one choice components.
    public String addGroupButtonAction() {
        AppModuleImpl am = (AppModuleImpl)ADFUtils.getApplicationModuleForDataControl("AppModuleDataControl");
        ViewObjectImpl voGroupAdminView = am.getVoGroupAdminView2();

        am.getTransaction().postChanges();
        return "null";

I made a button to refresh the value of select one choice and it doesn't work yet.
So I just move one of the

        voGroupAdminIterator.invalidateCache();
        voGroupAdminIterator.setCurrentRowWithKey(selectedGroupKey.toStringFormat(true));

SharePoint 2013 users only see custom list and document lists that they uniquely created

In my first SharePoint 2013 project, I want to create a view where users can only see their own files that they generated. I think I know how to create this view when the list is associated with the 'Documents; folder. However I have created several custom
lists where I can only see these items when I am on the navigation pane to the right and the unique custom lists are listed under 'recent'.
Let me know if you can answer any of the following questions:
1. When on the main SharePoint website, can lists be displayed in other locations than what I just listed? If so, where would I see these other lists?
2. I would like to include the custom lists that are located in the 'recent' navigation pane as a view that only I can use. This would be based upon userid. If this is possible, how would you combine the lists lists in the same view? If this is not possible,
how would you set a view just for the lists listed under the 'recent' section?
3. The content approval solution under versioning settings of a library to restrict the documents to only ones that the user created (and also Approver rights). Then if they create a new view they still won't see the documents that were not created by
them. What about custom lists that are not in the documents area but are in the 'recent' area? Would this restrict users to see only items that they created?
4. Item level Permissions in advance settings solve this problem for the list in the document area and the custom list in the recent area? If so, how would you setup these values?

As it turns out the, setting Item-Level Permissions in a library is fully supported with PowerShell!
The PowerShell commands for changing this are very simple:
$web = Get-SPWeb http://YourSite/
$list = $web.Lists[“Your Document Library Name”]
$list.ReadSecurity = 2
$list.Update()
$web.Dispose()
Note the 3rd line which is where you determine the value for this setting using the following values:
1 = “Read all items”
2 = “Read items that were created by the user”
If you wish to modify the values for Create and Edit access instead, replace .ReadSecurity with .WriteSecurity with
the following values:
1 = “Create and edit All items”
2 = “Create items and edit items that were created by the user”
4 = “None”
For example:
$web = Get-SPWeb http://YourSite/
$list = $web.Lists[“Your Document Library Name”]
$list.WriteSecurity = 2
$list.Update()
$web.Dispose()

Custom list column not showing up in View Order by or Group by dropdown list

Hi All,
I have created a custom list with a custom column called "Description". Some items in the list do not have a description. What I wanted to do is create a view where the items with a description show first, and the items with no description are
at the bottom of the list. I thought I could make a simple view that uses the Order by or Group by on the description column.
The problem I am having is the description column doesn't show up in the dropdown list for either Order by or Group by within the custom view. Can someone please tell me why this happens and if there is anything I can do to rectify this problem.
I hope you can help
Colin

Hi,
I believe the "Description" field type is Multiple Lines of Text. Sorting doesn't allow in this field type. In order to do the sorting, you would require to create additional column like single line of text column (note that it supports only 255
chars and require to truncate the data if more than 255) and update the data using event receiver or workflow. and do the sorting with that column.

SharePoint 2013 witing code to work with a custom list

I am asking this question since I am new to working with SharePoint 2013, but I have programming experience working with C#.net and VB.NET.
I have a workflow 2013 that is accessed by a custom list (and updated by Infopath 2013). Once a user has submitted the custom list to the workflow 2013, there will be the 'proper' authorized person in the company that will approve or reject the request.
Once the user has submitted the request, I do not want them to be able to update the list any more. I want the user to only have 'view' access.
In workflow 2010, I see that there is the impersonate step that would change the permisisons for me. However I would prefer not to use an older version of the workflow.
Thus can you show me and/or point me to links that will do the following:
1. What .net code could I use that will change the permissions on the custom list I mentioned above. The code can be in either C#.net or VB.net?
2. If I am able to use the .net code, would you show me how to 'wire together' the .net code with the 2013 workflow? I do know that I would use Visual Studio.net 2012 to write the code. Would you explain, draw a picture, and/or point me to a url that will explain
to me where to place the .net code so it is connected to the workflow 2013?

I am going have a large volume of users (about 300 to 500) from my company creating these requests. So you are saying that I should create a subfolder of each request.
Thus I have the following additional questions:
1. If I move the requests to subfolders, how will the users be able to able to find their requests when placed into a different subfolder? I have views setup for the users, would I adjust the view for each user? Can you show me in workflow how to move
the requests to another subfolder?
2. It sounds like a need a subfolder for each request is that correct? If not, do I move all requests to one subfolder?
3. Would you show me how you recommend that I change the permissions on the subfolder(s)?

Error when editing some Items in SharePoint Custom List

Hello I have a custom list with multiple workflows and a customized infopath form. I am getting an unexpected error on some of the list items when I try to edit them. I can view them just fine but the error is occuring on edit for some items.
I am also able to edit the same item that I am getting the problem with from the datasheet view but just not with infopath form.
I use the USL to view the correlation error and it just said leaving monitored scoped.
I also tried saving the list as a template and creating a new list from the template and then creating a new item in that list and got the same error. Please help.

Adding items to custom list - performance issues - Request timed out error

Hi,
I am using VS 2010, c#.
I am inserting records from an excel file, which contains 6000 records to a custom list.
I am using the Visual webpart, and oledb connection. I am not using the openXML format, as i need to use "xls" and "xlsx" type.
I am doing the below steps currently:
1) From the file upload control, i am saving the excel to the sharepoint layouts - inside that a custom folder, to keep the records.
2) Using the oledb connection to read the records and fill it in a datatable.
3) Inserting the datatable values to a custom list.
Looping through the datatable and inserting 3000 – 4000 records to List, I am getting the "Request timeout error".
Below is the sample code, where i am looping the datatable and inserting the record:
SPList prjCmpList = oWeb.Lists[strListName];
SPListItemCollection prjCmpListItems = prjCmpList.Items;
SPListItem prjCmpListItem;
foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
try
prjCmpListItem = prjCmpListItems.Add();
prjCmpListItem["Title"] = dr[0];
prjCmpListItem["FirstName"] = dr[1];
prjCmpListItem.Update();
catch (Exception)
I am using the "using block" for the spsite and web objects. When I see the execution time out in my web.config it is set to 3600. But I am getting the request time out after 2 mins only.
I have checked these link's : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa973248%28v=office.12%29.aspx
http://www.etechplanet.com/blog/how-to-import-an-excel-spreadsheet-in-sharepoint-and-save-it-as-a-custom-list.aspx
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/8664375c-fae0-483a-b43f-ce7d353b896a/importing-3000-records-to-sharepoint-list-causing-requesting-time-out-error?forum=sharepointadminlegacy
However, I am following the best practices, and also the insertion of records is to be done programmatically.
Has anyone faced this kind of issue? How to fix this?

HI,
Thanks for the reply.
If the list has custom columns which consists of string and Date types, can the same type be used? Or should the list be an empty list without any columns?
In the xml if it is put as "onerror= continue", how to fetch the records which error out?
Also, in the datatable code block, which I had put in the first post, I am also trying as below:
if(dt[1] != null)
if(!string.IsNullorEmpty(dt[1].toString())
prjCmpListItem["FirstName"] = dt[1].toString();
Can these condition checks be performed with the "processbatchdata" approach?
Thanks

SP Designer 2010 - Saving custom list form impacts other list and other custom list form

Hi,
I have a source list, with custom display, edit and new forms all of them created in SP Designer 2010. These do nothing fancy, just for presentation purposes, fields were re-arranged in 2 columns.
Then I created a target list by saving the source list as template, the template brought over all customizations, all seemed to work fine. So I started to modify the target custom list forms.
Now here's the problem:
After a while making changes to the target list I realized that somehow the custom list forms on the source list had been modified... so I opened the source list in designer and noticed that the out of the box forms: NewForm.aspx, DispForm.aspx, EditForm.aspx
were now the default forms for the source list, and I couldn't pick my custom list forms to be the default forms for the source list anymore, they were not on the listbox. I could still see them by going in designer to All Files > Lists > SourceList
> and if I previewed them, they were empty.
I believe that somehow source and target list are linked, but why would designer allow making changes to the source list? like resetting the default forms, and breaking up the custom list forms that were in place?
I've verified list id's in the custom list forms of the target list and they belong to the GUID of the target list. I don't see anything else that could potentially point to the source list.
SharePoint Designer 2010 version: 14.0.7007.1000 SP2 14.0.7015.1000 I don't think this matters much because I've tried with other SP Designer 2010 versions and the error is the same.
thanks for your reply!

Hi alec,
When I create a custom EditForm1.aspx and set as default for a source list, then save this list as a template, then the newly created the target list based off this saved template, the source list still uses the custom EditForm1.aspx form as default
form, from SharePoint designer, I can see these two lists have different listID, so they have no connection when I edit any one of them.
Please recreate a new list with custom form page and save as template, then create a new list see if this issue could be reproduced, or we can create a new list instead if it is an isolate issue.
Thanks,

How do I import Excel cell data in to an already built custom list.

I have a custom list that we are using as an End Of Shift Report.
I would like to expand the list to incorporate some of our process data. (We are a paper mill). We have a data historian, PI Process Book, that has an Excel add-in, that allows us to import the process data in to Excel.
I am able to do the "import spreadsheet" function and get the data in to a new list. What I can't figure out is either how to import directly in to the custom list I have already created, or how to import from the new list to the custom list.
I could use the "new list" as a container for several different process points if I could figure out how to load the process data in to the custom list.
We are currently using WSS3, but are upgrading in either the 4th Q this year, or Q1 2014.
Any other suggestions on how to display single point data (End of Shift Inventory calculations for example) in a custom sharepoint list are welcome.
I want to take a tank level reading, which we monitor and multiply it by X gallons per foot, then load the total gallons in to the custom list

1) Open WSS List, and Export it to Excel
2) Open the Excel file you want to import
3) Copy the cells in the source and paste them into the Excel file openned from the WSS List (only highlight one row to paste, it will fill down)
4) You will see vaildation errors (yellow triangles), if there are any, correct them
5) In the menubar go Data --> List --> Sync List
6) You will see a blue status bar fill in the bottom left as data is copied up to the List
Or you can try the below tools

Custom List Form creation using Powershell - SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I have a custom List called 'IssuesList' with 4 fields - "IssueTitle","IssueID","IssueDesc","Status"
While displaying display form I should show 3 fields expect Issue ID i.e. IssueID should be hidden.
and on edit form only Status field should be editable. So using SharePoint designer I created respective Edit form and display forms and changed XSLT to control the display mode on the fields.
I have everything scripted in powershell till now - creation of custom list, publishing pages, webparts etc. however I am looking for how to provision or associate these 2 list forms with IssuesList after I create the list in new site.
I have restrictions on using wsp and site/list template due to business needs. So I need to know if there is any way I can upload these 2 files after I create custom list in powershell and associate them as defaultdisplay and defauteditforms?
Please advise.

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might need to apply these custom forms to a list after list creation using PowerShell.
With PowerShell with SharePoint Object Model, we can hide fields on list forms.
The similar thread below with code snippet will provide more information about this:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ee6fc2eb-197f-4144-94fa-8a4e438675d9/hide-a-field-from-edit-form-list?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
If there may be other requirements except for hiding fields, as you have limitation on using custom solution package(which should be preferable in such scenario),
a workaround I can provide is that, after list creation, you can add Content Editor Web Part contains the CSS style or JavaScript to the form pages of a specific list, it will help you hide/disable the specific elements, this can be achieved programmatically.
The code below can add a Content Editor Web Part to the DisplayForm of a list(though in C#):
public static void AddCEWP()
SPLimitedWebPartManager manager = null;
SPFile file = null;
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://sp"))
using (SPWeb web = site.RootWeb)
try
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
file = web.GetFile(web.Url + "/Lists/List018/DispForm.aspx");
manager = file.GetLimitedWebPartManager(PersonalizationScope.Shared);
ContentEditorWebPart webPart = new ContentEditorWebPart();
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
XmlElement xmlElement = xmlDoc.CreateElement("HtmlContent");
//xmlElement.InnerText = "<strong>Hello World!</strong>";
//write the custom CSS style or JavaScript here
string content = "<style>your custom style here...</style>";
xmlElement.InnerText = content;
webPart.Content = xmlElement;
manager.AddWebPart(webPart, "Top", 0);
manager.SaveChanges(webPart);
web.Update();
catch (Exception ex)
//Utility.SPTraceLogError(ex);
finally
if (manager != null)
manager.Dispose();
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false;

Share Point Custom List - Submit item to folder

hello,
I have create a custom list on my SharePoint 2013 site and customized the infopath form. I have disabled the submit/Save buttons on the ribbon and set the Form Submit settings to rules and actions. I have then added "Save" buttons on the form that
have actions to submit to the list's Main data connection.
There are three departments that will use this list and users in a department should only be able to see items within their department. So I have created folders for these three departments and defined permissions at the folder level. Now how can I submit
the infopath form such that the form automatically gets submitted to the respective folder? I am unable to add a submit data connection to a customized list form and the Main data connection is disabled for edit.
I am however able to achieve this in a document library. But was wondering if there are ways to achieve this with a list since we are almost completed with the development of this functionality using list items.

Anybody?
I even tried writing a ItemAdding even reciever that would cause the item to be saved in the respective folder instead of the root. But I am not able to figure out the best way to do this.

Infopath 2013 - Values are not appearing in a drop down field referencing site column which uses lookup in custom list

I have a master custom list that has a set of site columns. For each site column there is a lookup to a custom list with reference data. When I edit the list in data entry view all values in drop down fields work fine, but when I customize the form for
the master list, no data appears in the drop down fields. I can change the data binding on the form so it references the the correct data and when I preview the form it works. But when I publish it, no data is available in these drop down fields.

Hi shakonarson,
According to your description, I try to reproduce your scenario but the lookup field works fine.
When we customize the form for the list in the InfoPath 2013 , it is by design that the Drop-Down List Box control cannot display its value.
For troubleshooting your issue, please take steps as below:
Go to lookup List Box on your form in InfoPath 2013 , right click it and choose “Drop-Down List Properties” from the bottom of your field menu.
Make Sure you select “Get choices from an external data source” and correct Data source.
Make Sure the Xpath of Entries is “d:SharePointListItem_RW” under the dataFields.
Here is a good blog for sorting lookup column DropDown by customizing your list form with InfoPath you can have a look:
Sort SharePoint lookup column Dropdown by customizing your list form
with InfoPath
Hope this helps!
