Set blanks to display something other than a # sign in queries

Is there a transaction I can use to set the value i want to see if the field is blank?  right now it shows # and I would like to see nothing.

Hi,
Option 1:
Program SAPLRRSV for BEx:
Modify the text u2018Not Assignedu2019 for system message 027 to u2018 u2018 . This is a global change and it affects all reports.
Option 2: (Works only with WAD, Version 3.X)
In the HTML code, add a tag u2018MODIFY_CLASSu2019 and attach a custom class with the change to suppress u201C#u2019 / u2018Not Assignedu2019 values for chars. Create the custom class with u2018CL_RSR_WWW_MODIFY_TABLEu2019 as super class.
The methods from class u2018CL_RSR_WWW_MODIFY_TABLEu2019 are copied to the custom class. The method u2018CHARACTERISTIC_CELLu2019 should be redefined.
Put the following piece of code in the method.
method CHARACTERISTIC_CELL.
if I_CHAVL = '#'.
C_CELL_CONTENT = '&nbsp'.
endif.
endmethod.
Please go through the document 'How to hide a column in your web query with the table interface'. You can search for it in SDN.

Murali.

  • JTree: displaying something other than default toString

    Ahoy. I'm working on displaying the structure of some complex objects using a jtree. (Just displaying at the moment, not editing).
    I've chosen to do this at the moment by making the structure itself implement TreeModel, but I could just as well use a DefaultTreeModel.
    My structure contains Lists of other objects. Since I've overridden toString() in those objects, they display fine, but the list that contains them (and forms the parent node) displays the default toString of the ArrayList (or whatever), listing the contents in square brackets.
    The kludge I've done for now is to subclass ArrayList with my own "LabeledList" which takes a label in its constructor and returns it for toString(). This works, but isn't ideal.
    How am I supposed to do it? All I can find is "Sometimes, it is not feasible to override toString; in such a scenario you can override the convertValueToText of JTree to map the object from the model into a string that gets displayed." at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17409_01/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/tree.html. This is in the JTree itself, not the model and I don't see how I can do this and keep the view separate from the model. Am I supposed to do something like this, in the JPanel or watever class:
    JTree tree = new JTree() {
      String convertValueToText(Object obj) {
        if(obj instanceof List<?>)
          //work out what I want to display somehow
        else
          super(obj);
    }That seems even worse than what I've already done. I'm kind of confused.

    Sounds like a job for a custom renderer. The JTree tutorial shows an example of one.

  • ACS 4.2 RDBMS Action 105/108 - How to set to something other than default "RADIUS Token Server"

    I'm trying to create an import script for RDBMS to import users, but cannot figure out how to set the "PASS_TYPE_RADIUS_TOKEN" to something other than the default of "RADIUS Token Server".  We have multiple RADIUS Token Server definitions.
    I can create a user with what I need, except external db password is set to "RADIUS Token Server".  How do I set it to (for example) something like "RADIUS Token Server - xxxx"
    We have more than 1 RADIUS Token Server definition called "RADIUS Token Server - xxxx", "RADIUS Token Server - yyyy". 
    Thanks!

    As per my knowledge you have to update 4.2 ACS to
    5.1, because when you go for RDBMS synchronization it wont allow you, I have faced problem in past while primary ACS was 4.1 and secondary I have 4.2, I have updated primary ACS to 4.2 and everything is working fine.

    Has anyone encountered similar issue while configuring dg4odbc....I never had trouble with hsodbc. Since hsodbc is desupported , We are evaluating dg4odbc and openlink odbc
    drivers to establish connectivity to mysql and stuck at this point.
    Any suggestion from gateway gurus ?

  • Is it better to set the admin account to other than myself on a new computer for security purposes?

    Hi all
    On a new computer is it better to set the admin account to other than myself for security purposes? I am sure that I read some years ago that this was the best route to go down. What I am suggesting is that I will still administer the account but not as myself the user in my own name and also will it have any ramifications further down the line.
    Will be using a new Macbook Pro running Lion (when it arrives)
    With thanks in advance for any help and advice on this issue
    Best regards
    Dingoh

    when you get a new mac and set up an account, that account is designated as the admin account automatically.  Creating a second user account without admin privileges is fine to do, if you are afraid that you might accidentally do something harmful that requires admin access.  Make sure it is a second user account and not a guest account, as with a guest account, everything during a session under a guest account gets deleted after the session ends.

  • Assign boot drive letter to something other than C

    When setting up XP Mode, is there any way to assign the boot drive to something other than C? I know once it's set up it's next to impossible to change, but there should be a way to assign it during setup. Any ideas??

    Hi,
    Why do you want to change system drive letter in Windows XP mode? As you said, you're not allowed to do that. Based on my test, you can succeed in changing this drive letter  C: to other letters through registry, after you attach another virtual disk
    (eg E:) into XP. However, It will damage your XP system, which proves not to be a good solution provided in Internet. So I recommend you not to change this letter.
    Thanks!

  • TS3999 Change minimum duration to something other than 30 minutes

    When scheduling an event in iCloud calendar, can you set the minimum duration in the pull down menu for "from" to something other than 30 minutes?
    For example, if you schedule an even at 9:00 AM, the shortest time available in the pull down down menu will read "9:30". I know I can manually type any time I want, but I was looking for a way to change the default options.

    Maybe you can try to build something in Front Row, although I do not think it will allow this flexibility in time frames.

  • Can a muse subscriber reconfigure the forms widgets to something other than BC?

    Can a muse subscriber reconfigure the forms widgets to something other than BC?

    What I did for my forms was create a copy of my Muse site file where I deleted everything except for the page with the forms (there were 2 on one page, and there are none anywhere else on the site). I kept the master, made a copy of it, and took everything out of the master. I then went to the page (titled "reach me", containing two forms, one for questions, and one for a mailing list) and selected everything and grouped it. The grouped item allowed for Muse to give me a width/height of all of the elements together. i took those dimensions and set them as the page defaults on the master i had just wiped out. i set all margins, footers, padding, etc to 0 and made it 1 column. i published the site to catalyst, and then copied the url to my clipboard. opening my site up again (the muse file i made the copy from) i went to PLAN and made a copy of the Reach Me page (as a backup, should something go awry, i called it "Reach Me-old") i opened the original "reach me" (being that all my other pages linked to it and not the copy i had just made) i wiped out all of the forms and content and inserted an html code snippet. i typed:
    <style type="text/css">
    #frame {overflow-x:none;overflow-y:none;border:0px;};
    </style>
    <iframe id="frame" src="URL" width="WIDTH" height="HEIGHT" scrolling="no" seamless sandbox="" />
    * replace URL with the url you copied earlier
    *replace width and height with the ones you typed in the b-master (or it might be called "A-Master copy" in your business catalyst site
    this worked out just fine for me hope it helps you guys
    check it out working:
    ilenepricedesign.com (reach me page)
    ilenepricedesign-contact.businesscatalyst.com (the page i created an iframe of)
    ===============
    update: there were some issues with it (it worked for the most part, just some visual problems)
    i created a copy muse file, deleted all except the page and the master i needed, and uploaded as-is to catalyst. i then fixed all hyperlinks on the master for the copied muse file to link back to original site and then on site linked the menu item for the page to go to the catalyst page. this works perfectly, i dont mind the url changing when everything looks the exact same. to the average user, i think you should be fine.

  • Install OCS R2 on something other than Redhat AS 2.1?

    I have a test environment I want to set up for OCS Release 2 9.0.4.1, but I'd like to do it on something other than Redhat Advanced Server 2.1. I saw a Note or something on Metalink a couple of days ago on how to trick runInstaller into thinking the OS is Redhat AS, but tonight when looking for this document I cannot find it.
    Does anybody know how to do this? I'm downloading a developer edition of UnitedLinux right now, but I'm really interested in attempting to install the single-box install on Mandrake 9.1. One reason because I'm more familiar with that distribution, and also because I'm curious to see if it will work.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    I've done it on red hat 7.3 - no issues besides relinking for the ias components.
    runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    Can't rememeber the case, but if you run the runInstaller and pass an option or perhaps -? or -help it will show you a whole bunch of options.

  • Displaying lauguages other than English

    Hi,
    I am working with Dreamweaver 8 and having problems in
    displaying languages other than English. When i open a page having
    Chinese characters and make some changes to it and save it, it
    gives me the message of using UTF8 fonts. After i click Ok, it
    changes the text into garbage characters and does not show the text
    in preview as well. Before making the changes, i am able to view
    the text in Chinese in Dreamweaver and also in my browser. Any idea
    as to how i can fix this? Your help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Try one of the following in the Source:

    select "Tbl2PrimaryKey",
    "Tbl2Description",
    (select Tbl1Description from Table1 where "Table2"."Tbl1ForeignKey" = Table1.Tbl1PrimaryKey) Tbl1Description

  • Boot into something other than hard drive

    I'm having problems partitioning in boot camp, so I read that I should defrag my drive. I'm getting the error because it can't move certain files.
    So I'm using iDefrag, but it won't let me use most of the defrag options because I'm using the disk it is defraging. I tried to boot using the leopard disk that came with my macbook, but I can only use certain programs while this disk is open.
    What do I need to do to boot into something other than the hard drive to defrag?

    Hi again,
    found this procedure http://www.bradbergeron.com/2006/11/howto-install-and-boot-os-x-on-a-flash-drive / to install and boot a basic OSX on an USB Memory Stick.
    Since this How-To was written for OSX Tiger you might consider getting a bigger sized USB-Stick for the space OSX Leopard needs.

I couldn't find any option any where on the screen or in settings on changing the view. Please help

    Ok nevermind I managed to sort it out.. had to change the type of video and sort the shows with their seasons. pretty long process.

  • How to upgrade to something other than the most recent OS

    I am currently running Os 10.6.8. I would like to update, but I have a critical application that is only qualified for 10.8.2 and the current operating system is 10.8.4. Is there a way to buy something other than the current OS?

    Apple updates the OS X installer at the Mac App Store with the latest version, and older OS X versions disappear. If you want to upgrade to Mountain Lion and you purchase Mountain Lion at the App Store, you will get the OS X Mountain Lion installer with 10.8.4 installed, so it will install 10.8.4, without any possibility to install 10.8.2.
    You can try changing system files to look like you are using 10.8.1 and try applying the 10.8.2 update, but doing this you may damage OS X Mountain Lion

  • PBG4 12" - Setting external display to something other than 4:3?

    Hello,
    I've been using a 12" PBG4 as a basic media center for watching movies via mini-DVI to composite out, hooked up to an old 4:3 TV. Recently I've purchased an HDTV and am still using the 12" PBG4 as a media center. Obviously, the quality of the video isn't HD (as I'm going out via composite), but honestly, it's good enough (for me anyway).
    But, my one problem is, the 12" PBG4 doesn't allow me to output the video (either when mirroring the displays or when mirroring is off) at an aspect ratio other than 4:3. Thus, on the HDTV, everything is stretched. To compensate, I have manually distort the aspect ratio of the video I'm watching (through the video software) to make it look the way it's supposed to. This works great for video, but when I do anything else on the HDTV, it's stretched.
    So, I'm wondering if anyone knows how I'd go about setting an external display to an aspect ration other than 4:3? In the display preferences, all available options are 4:3?
    Any advice would be appreciated!
    Thank

    If it is stretched on the HD-TV set the HD-TV to have a 4:3 resolution. Remember widescreen aspect ratios aren't always 16:9. If you read DVD specs on their back they have varied possibilities:

    You can always reduce the video window to fit the onscreen resolution.
