Subforms within subforms add Instance problem

Hi
I am new to Adobe Livecycle Designer (I am using version 8.2.1) but I have successful made nearly all elements of the quite long form I need to produce except for one section I am having difficulty getting it to function correctly. In the example I have a repeating subform ‘Organisation’ on page subform ‘Membership’ which has buttons to add and remove instances, which work correctly. But within each instance of this ‘Organisation’ subform is another repeating instance subform ‘ExpertNames’ with buttons to add and remove instances.
The ‘Organisation’ form allows an organisation to be named and the ‘ExpertNames’ subform allows multiple members for that organisation to be named and associated to each organisation. The user should be able to list multiple organisations each with one or more members. I can successfully add multiple instances of ‘Organisation’ form one after another using
Membership.Organisation.instanceManager.addInstance(1)
and remove the selected instance using
Membership.Organisation.instanceManager.removeInstance(this.parent.index)
I have the following set on the button to add a new instance of the ‘ExpertNames’ form
Membership.Organisation.ExpertNames.instanceManager.addInstance(1);
and the following to remove the selected instance of the 'ExpertNames' form
Membership.Organisation.ExpertNames.instanceManager.removeInstance(this.parent.index);
However when I add a second instance of the ‘Organisation’ form i.e. a new organisation and try and add additional members to the 2nd organisation it adds them to the 1st organisation rather than the second! I have an example of the problem form i can send if needed.
Hope someone will be able to help with this.
Many thanks in advance
Lara

I still have not been able to find a solution to this does anyone have any ideas?
I have an example of the problem in a form that I can email.
Many thanks in advance

  • Subform add Instance problem

    G'day
    I'm very new to LiveCycle and teaching myself to create forms
    I have a drop down box in a subform requesting information. Depending on the information required certain text boxes will appear (using switch case script) dateFrom dateTo dateCourt txtOther
    When I add a new instance of this subform the list appears correctly in the drop down box but when the item is selected the text boxes do not appear at all.
    I am probably missing something fundamental. Any ideas
    Cheers

    Hi,
    the problem is your SOM expression.
    When you write RFI.InfoRequested.Info.dateFrom.presence = "hidden"; the PDF-viewer interprets it always as RFI[0].InfoRequested[0].Info[0].dateFrom[0].presence = "hidden"; where the accessor [n] is always 0 which means the first instance of the related object.
    It should work if you just write dateFrom.presence = "hidden"; because the object is at the same level in the hierarchy and there is no need to parse the entire tree to find the object.

  • Ciscoworks 4.0, netconfig job, add instance problem

    I'm trying to make an adhoc job to some devices in ciscoworks.  I select netconfig jobs, select the devices I want to do a change to, and then select add instance, I get a new browser window saying loading and nothing more happens.
    I cannot create the config lines I want to perform to my switches.  I just want to change the vtp domain name to the switches, but cannot do this due to the blank browser window saying loading.
    Anyone know anything about this?

    I just updated my LMS 4.0 device packages, and I cannot reproduce.  I then noticed your SharedNetconfigIOS.zip package is larger than mine.  I suspect it's corrupt.  Go to Admin > System > Software Center > Device Update, check the boxes next to Common Services and Inventory Config And Image Management and download and install all available packages.  If none are available, you will need to contact TAC to get an up-to-date package repository to correct this problem.  You can click the "Open Service Request" link in the Actions panel of this thread to capture everything we've done here if you have to open a service request.

  • Add Instance Subform content to textbox

    Hi all,
    There is sth I would like to do.
    I have a form which has a text field that is in a subform where you can add instances. No problem with pages etc.
    Now, I have created a text field where I would like all entries to be repeated as plain text possibly separated by rows.
    For example:
    Textbox in Subform: Eggs
    Textbox 2 in Subform (after clicking the add instance button): Butter
    Text box at the end should either say:
    Eggs, Butter
    or
    Eggs
    Butter
    Does anyone have an idea on how I can achieve this?
    Thanks a lot,
    Larissa

    Hi Paul,
    Actually I have several requirements. I have attached the pdf as this seems easier at this point.
    At the beginning of the pdf, I have the marks in three boxes. I would like to concatenate them with a comma between the different entries into a text field that users can then copy paste into the next form.
    Let’s say in the first box you put:
    A
    B
    C
    In the second,
    D
    E
    I would like to have a text box that comes out as: A,B,C,D,E
    Second problem I am facing with this task is at the countries.
    I have a country online selection and a second country selection.
    Ideally I would like to have just one box with all countries and be able to tell the pdf that certain countries have the characteristic “Online”.
    Thus if the client clicks on “Add” I would have two list boxes: One for Online and one for Rest. Depending on what the characteristic of the country it would either go into the Online or the Other.
    Any ideas on my problematic.
    I was thinking working with numbers and maybe telling the system that if it is under 100, move to Box 1, if it is over 100, move to Box 2.
    Thanks for your help.
    Kind regards,
    Larissa

  • Add instance in a subform which also can be doubled

    Hi,
    I have a subform X which can be doubled by a click on the button. In that subform X there is another subform Y which also can be multiplied to a maximum of 3.
    Now when I add a subform X and i want to add some subforms Y. The form will only add the subform Y in the first subform X and not in the second one.
    This is the script I use:
    for subform x
    if(Incitant52.subFoireAcheteur.all.length < 2){;
    Incitant52.subFoireAcheteur.instanceManager.addInstance(true);
    and for subform y
    if(Incitant52.subFoireAcheteur.subAcheteur.all.length < 3){;
    Incitant52.subFoireAcheteur.subAcheteur.instanceManager.addInstance(true);

    To add instances to the second occurance of subform x you will need to address it with subformx[1].
    Note that the [ ] brackets are not valid in javascript so your expression should look something like this:
    xfa.resolveNode("Incitant52.subFoireAcheteur.subformx[1]").instanceManager.addInstance(1)

  • Subform reference (instance/index)

    I have two drop-down boxes in a subform.  When item in first drop-down is selected, items in second drop-down are limited (see example below).  My problem is when multiple instances of the subform exist, the first drop down will only apply to the first instance of the form.  Is there a way to be more specific in a subform row/instance reference?  I want to change the item in the current row or current instance of subform.
    Example: 
    1st Drop-down     2nd Drop-down
    US                     New York or Washington (choose one)
    France                Paris or St. Martin (choose one)  
    Thanks

    This image illustrates my problem.  This table is actually a series of subforms.  When a new instance is added, the user can choose a different region and then a state within the region.  My problem is as rows/subforms are added I can't get the code to refer to the appropriate instance.  It will only refer to the first instance and no new instances.

  • Calculation in an add instance

    I am trying to use an if statement in an addinstance of an interactive form.  Based on the results of one field in the addinstance, I want to sum a different field from the add instance.  So, the customer can add any number of rows and choose from a drop down (coded 1-4) the position of the person.  If that position is 1 or 2, I want to sum the salary field in a calculation box.  If the position is 3, then I want to sum the salary(ies) in a second calcuation box, and if the position is 4, then I want to sum the salaries in a third calculation field.  My code for one of the the calculation field looks like this:
    form1.#subform[8].#subform[9].details.total.conditions.#subform[0].numTotal[
    1]::calculate - (FormCalc, client)
    if (detail[*].PTFT < 3) then
          Sum(detail[*].salary)
          endif
    The other two fields are the same except that they change "<3" to "==3" or "==4". 
    The problem is that it does not sum the second or third calcuation field.  Only my first calcuation field will work. 
    Since it is a rather simple if statement, I think that the problem may be in the subforms, possibly?
    Please see my form at http://www.units.muohio.edu/lifelonglearning/forms/zzztest.pdf
    Thanks in advance for any help you can lend.

    Ok I had a look at your form (nice form by the way ...good job). The expression you are using to determine the number of instances is not correct....as well when you sum the salaries it is the details subform that has th eiccurance numbers so that needs the * notation. Here is the 1st calc modified
    if  (details._detail.count < 3) then
         Sum(detail[*
    ].salary) 
    endif
    You also have the same code on the layout ready and the calc event. No need for both ...just leave it on the calc event and when the user enters the amounts the totals will update.
    You are also getting an error when the row initialize .....a partNoScript is being called becuase of script behind the Name field (itis called txtPartNo in your form). My guess is that you copied this from the Purchase Order sample and forgot to remove the scritp from the Initialize and the change event. This field was originally a DD field and that is what was used to populate it.
    Hope that helps

  • Adding add instance into calculation

    I am trying to get  fields  from  add instance/subform fields to calculate with the rest of the form fields. The problem I am having is once I "add instance" the field is no longer part of the calculation. I have tried using:// Verify at least one instance of the midtr3a field exists.
    if 
    (exists(location.yes900.admids.midtr3a) == 1) then
    Sum(location.yes900.admids[
    *].midtr3a)
    endif
    would appreciate any help on this.
    Thanks K

    I think you do not have to check for whether the field exists or not..Because when you use the "Sum" function, it will check if the field is present and if it has value or not.
    You may directly try the following int he script..
    Sum(location.yes900.admids[*].midtr3a
    Also in your Exists function, you are checking "exists(location.yes900.admids.midtr3a)".. This will only check for the first instance of the field.
    Thanks

  • Add instance on Read only field issue

    I have a subform with two fields , one a date field to capture current system date and time and another is a Text field for some comments.
    Then there are two buttons ,one for Adding the instance for these two fields and another is a Save button which makes these two fields
    The requirement is that once both the fields are filled with data and i click on save button, the fields should become read only ,however when i click on the add instance button the instance is added successfully but the save button click is not making the new instance read only.
    The Code for Add Instance Button is :
    "New1.FileNote.instanceManager.addInstance(true);
    xfa.form.recalculate(true);"
    The code for Save button to make the fields read only is :
    New1.FileNote.DateTimeField101.access = "readOnly";
    New1.FileNote.TextField37.access = "readOnly";
    Please guide me as I am totally blank on how to code the same..Have a rough logic of using a for loop with index of the Add Instance but not getting the way out for the code.
    Thanks a lot for any help and guidance.

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for your reply..I made it happen using the for loop with Index and resolve node. However there is another issue which occured after that..I have a date/time field in that repeating subform instance.
    The run time property is set to Current Date/Time. Now the issue is whenever i click on save, form.recalculate instance changes the existing time value in the previous subbform instance as well
    Is there a way to retain the existing value in the field of the previous instance ??

  • Can't Add instance code

    I am working on a flash file AS2 that contains some combo
    boxes.
    When I start the program I can right click on a button and
    add instance code ie current selection is the button.
    After working on the file for a while I can't do this.
    When I right click on new buttons and objects and select
    actions the current selection shows as the frame not the
    object I want to add code too.
    This is very frustrating as I basically can't add instance
    code.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Alfred

    I think the problem was the pin current script button. Some
    how I clicked this and no matter what I right clicked on it would
    always take be to the last script I used before I hit the button.
    Thanks for your prompt response.

  • Time subtraction within a Calendar instance

    Hello all, quick question about time subtraction within a Calendar instance.
    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    System.out.println(calendar.getTime()); // Tue Apr 07 11:14:24 EDT 2009
    calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, -10);
    System.out.println(calendar.getTime()); // Tue Apr 07 10:50:24 EDT 2009Shouldn't the latter time be "Tue Apr 07 11:04:24 EDT 2009" instead?
    Thanks,
    wf

    Read the docs for set() more closely. It doesn't say it adds time. Also look for another method that might add time, since that is what you are doing.

  • How to use multiple profiles within the same instance of Thunderbird

    About a month ago, I had Thunderbird configured with three profiles,
    and all three could be used within a single startup/instance of
    Thunderbird. That PC is now gone. I have re-configured the three
    profiles on a new PC, but am having trouble making all three
    useable within the same instance of Thunderbird. Can you help?
    Both PCs are/were Windows-7 64 bit.

    Thunderbird only opens on the default if one profile
    or
    if Profile Manager is instructed to ask at startup it will allow you to choose which Profile to open else it opens on the last Profile used..
    So it shows one Profile at a time in one instance of Thunderbird.
    However, one Profile can have many mail accounts.
    eg: I run 4 mail accounts in one Profile.

  • Need help with add instance

    I'm can't figure out how to add a new record with add instance, see below for basic code.  The second one works but I can't re-create it.  I'm guessing something basic that I am over looking.
    I also can't figure out how to attached my pdf's so you have to download from my website.

    It looks as if you have saved the form as an Acrobat 7 STATIC form....you
    need to save it as a DYNAMIC form.  You will find that option in the file
    types in the save as dialogue.  I resaved it locally and your form works.

  • Read an Attachment attached within a process instance

    Hi
    I am using BPM 11.1.1.6, can someone tell me how do I read and parse an attachment attached within a process instance. Thank you.
    Regards
    Venkat

    Thank Sudipto for the link.
    Experts,
    I used the API as suggested in the first link and managed to iterate through the attachments attached in a process instance but when i am trying to read the attachments using the getInputStream() its returning null, all the other properties of the taskattachment returns correct information. Is this a known bug?? The sample code snippet is as below:
    List attach= task.getAttachment();
    int i=0;
    for (Object obj :attach){
    i=i+1;
    AttachmentType taskAttachment = (AttachmentType)obj;
    System.out.println("Task Attachment " + i + " " + taskAttachment.getName());
    System.out.println(taskAttachment.getMimeType());
    System.out.println(taskAttachment.getSize());
    InputStream inpStream= taskAttachment.getInputStream();
    if (inpStream == null){
    System.out.println("Stream is empty");
    }
