Require that this column contains information is missing

I've got a Risks List on SharePoint 2007, as part of Project Server 2007 ,within which there is a column that I want to change its status to “required”. I went to Settings --> List Settings,
under Columns I clicked on the column name to edit. But under the Additional Column Settings, I don't see the option to "Require that this column contains information".
Why is this option missing?
In other environments we have, we were able to change the column designation with no problem and also in other lists in the same environment this
possibility appears.

Hi Royg--
1.     go to “List settings” > Advanced Settings and check “yes” of “allow management of content types” then click “OK”
2.     On list setting page, find the field in the “Columns” and check this field is used in which content type.
3.     Click the content type name in which this field is used on list settings page.
4.     Click the field name in “Columns” on this “List content type” page
5.     Now you can change the column to be “Required” in “Column Settings” option.
Hope that helps.

  • Require that this column contains information not working

    Hi,
    I've added a new column to SharePoint Online document list, and I've selected the option: "Require that this column contains information", but when I try to upload a Document to this list, this option doesn't work, because the document always upload.
    Appears a new windows that says that the document is uploaded and that I can protect the document, and appears the new column to put data, but if I select the Cancel option, the document is uploaded.
    What I need is that before I upload a document, it requires the metadata information with the column and if I select Cancel, the document doesn't upload.
    Thanks

    Hi santiagocarbonell,
    If your event receiver is working on your on-premise server,  it should work on SharePoint Online aswell. Unless if you are doing something from the Event Receiver which is not allowed in Sandbox. In that situation, SPException will be thrown.There
    is really no "different" way to create Event Receivers for SharePoint online.
    Can refer the below url for how to implement remote event receiver for SharePoint online can replace the code accordingly.

  • Hi, there is a game in facebook. when i open it. it again & again relods & after few relods it says that this page contains error. but in other browsers it opens easily without any problem

    Does it work if you reload?
    How fast is your connection?
    Do you get any timeouts?
    You can try the "Firefox/Tools > Web Developer > Web Console" and enable "Net > Logging" to see if how long it takes to load content.
    Another possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    You can check any advanced rules in the firewall to make sure that nothing is blocked.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • HT201250 I have a brother who is paranoid. He is starting to use an external hard drive to back up his information on his Mac. He says he is afraid that this might erase information from his computer hard drive. What can I tell him to allay his fears?

    I told him "The information only goes in one direction: from your computer on to the external hard drive. Like water coming out of a faucet. It doesn't go back in." But that's not very technical. I need a technical answer to satisfy his worried mind!  Thanks!

    Making a backup will NOT affect the original data.
    In fact failure to backup his data is more likely to result in data lost sometime in the future.
    Disk drives are mechanical devices, and subject to failure.
    If he is really paranoid, then he should be using the 3-2-1 backup method.
    3 copies of his data including the original
    2 different backup formats as one format is a single point of failure.
    1 copy should be off-site.
    If he uses an on-line networking backup solution such as CrashPlan, Mozy, Carbonite, Arq, etc... that would satisfy both off-site as well as using a 2nd backup format from Time Machine.  The off-site protects him from theft and natural disaster.  If not going to use an on-line networked backup, then consider using a cloning utility such as SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to an external disk and then take the disk to a family member, friends, or work.  Several disks for cloning means you can cycle through the disks always keeping at least one off-site at all times.
    Also a backup is protection against his own mistakes in accidentially deleting or modifying a file he really needs.
    If he is really paranoid, he should be backing up Big-Time, not thinking of reasons to avoid backup.  That is just asking for trouble.

  • How do I find that, a column contains only numeric characters ?

    I want to search for all the column values which has some non numeric value.

    This should work: you'll need to adjust it if the column exceeds 10 characters. You also may need to add permitted non-numerical characters i.e. <space>, <comma>, <decimal point>, <minus sign>, etc.

  • You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.

    I have dropdown on infopath form , and it receives data from sql server table ,  it works fine when i am running in preview mode , but when i am publishing form to sharepoint server and loading that form
    i am getting this
    You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.
    Can you please help?
    Thanks,

    try this one, if not yet
    Convert the data connection to UDC (store it in a Data Connection Library within the same site collection as the form library).  See if this works without any other changes, but if not, then...
    Manually edit your UDC file in Notepad (or your preferred editor) so that the authentication line is not commented out and so that it references the name of the SSO target app you created. 
    For Type, use NTLM.
    Ensure the user has rights to access the database
    Also ensure the connection file has been approved - A sharepoint admin can access a non approved Ucdx file. Go to the connection library and approve the file

  • The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

    Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
    working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
    I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
    to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
    are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
    We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
    The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type. 
    The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010. 
    Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
    Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine. 
    We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect. 
    Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
    Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
    Cheers

    Hi,
    I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
    If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.
    Thanks,

  • The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information using Update Item action

       I got error  "The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information "I  found out the cause is  Update Item action

    then the error arise .   please help..

    Thanks for the quick response Nikhil.
    Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.
    Site Lists
    Engagements = 4456 (Errors on this list, primary list for activity)
    Tasks = 7711  (All workflow tasks from all site lists)
    Clients = 4396  (Lookup from Engagements, Tslips, etc)
    Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
    Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
    A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.

  • Seed_Database.dfb containing the datafiles information is missing

    Hello All,
    I installed Oracle 11g R2 on an HPUX server
    While i am trying to create a database using the dbca, it fails because of this error: the file Seed_Database.dfb containing the datafiles information is missing.
    Your help pls. what is the solution?
    Regards,

    Hello,
    I also have this problem. I downloaded the win64_11gr2_database_1of2 and 2of2.zip files 3 more times. I also tried downloading the linux versions along with version 11.1.0.6.0. I have searched the files in all cases for the Seed_Database.dbf and did no find it. Why do you suppose that after all of those downloads, from the Oracle download site, I would still not be able to locate the file? I certainly would like a reasonable explanation and a solution. I am running a windows 7 os but I am the administrator on this PC.
    Thanks,
    John

    I have the same problem. I've tried to restart my Ipad and downloaded the book again several times but nothing has changed. There aren't any reviews on the book with that problem and I've got the latest version of iBook so I don't know what else I can do to get the book which I've paid for. Does anyone have another idea what I could do? (maybe one of the above might help you, Paul)

  • Please help!! "Can't open the illustration. This artwork contains a very large image that can not...

    Hi all, I am subscribing Illustrator CS6 16.0.0 and using it on Windows 7.
    Few days ago I was working with one file, I saved it successfully and now when I'm trying to open it an error message occures "Can't open the illustration. This artwork contains a very large image that can not be read on this version of AI. Please try with 64-bit version." and ALMOST ALL of the objects (vector) are missing as if they were deleted!
    It's kind of strange since I created the file with the same program and everything was working properly before.
    Please Please advice further steps for recovering my file.

    Thank you so much! the file is recovered (as well as my emotional state )
    The finding of the day - apparently I have two versions of AI in my PC!

  • This component requires that the embedded font be declared with embedAsCFF=false.

    I'm getting the following warning for my project.
    "warning: incompatible embedded font 'MyFont' specified for views::MyViewInnerClass0 (MyViewInnerClass0_61) . This component requires that the embedded font be declared with embedAsCFF=false."
    Here's what I have in my style.css file.
    /* CSS file */
    @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
    @namespace supportClasses "spark.globalization.supportClasses.*";
    @namespace views "views.*";
    @font-face {
              src: url("assets/MyFont.ttf");
      fontFamily: "MyFont";
      advancedAntiAliasing: true;
      embedAsCFF: true;
    @font-face {
              src: url("assets/MyFont.ttf");
      fontFamily: "MyFont";
      advancedAntiAliasing: false;
      embedAsCFF: false;
    The 2nd font section I have is what is suggested as the fix in most places but that isn't working out for me. I wonder if I'm missing something else.

    I tried changing the name and it didn't work. Tried all sort of combinations too and none worked. Tried a different font and that didn't work too.
    Turns out the problem wasn't in the declaration of the fonts but where I was using it.
    I initially had the font declared globally
    global
       fontFamily: DroidSansMono;
    I saw that, in your comment you had mentioned "..then apply it to the component" so I applied the font to the label component
    s|Label
      fontFamily: DroidSansMono;
    and boom.. no warning. Problem solved.
    Thanks so much.

  • Went to work on my photos and  something pops up that says file off-line for missing. This has never happened before. Can someone help? thank you

    "Went to work on my photos and something popped up that says, file 0ff-line or missing. This has never happened before. Can someone help? thank you!

    This means that the photos (or the folders that contain them) have been moved, renamed or deleted outside of Lightroom. On Windows it can also mean the disk drive has changed letters.

  • HT1222 This article contains absolutely NO information about the update being offered.

    This article contains absolutely NO information about the update being offered. It doesn't even tell me what it might break on my system (i.e. what gets changed). Just excuses of "We Aren't Telling Until Our Investigation Is All Done."
    That's not a good enough reason to install an update, it never was, and it never will be.
    "Do it because we say so" might fly overseas in Foxconn factories, but around here we don't like being kept in the dark and fed a load of fertilizer.

    The individual update pages, such as this one, list the changes and fixes. The reference to information which Apple doesn't release is about security bugs it's identified but not patched, as it would only be useful to attackers.
