Table field sizes

Hi,
Our application has been developed for single user mode only. Now it is being changed to work in multi user mode with oracle9.2.0.1.0.
Some of the fileds in the GUI are text fields and text areas where the client can enter any amount of data.
How shuold I declare the sizes of those fields in my table creation scripts.
I am novice to this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Jagannadham

hi there
what is the gui used and hope there will some limit on the text size whatever he enters how you used to store it in a single user env? file is it ?
if the text is within 4000 then you can go for varchar2

Changing LOV's table-field size

Hi,
I'm using Jdeveloper 11g.
Knowing that the tag below is used in LOV, Now I need to know how to change the LOV's table-field sizes? (I'm using the model-based LOV, and it's reading the attributes from the view object)
<af:inputListOfValues
model="#{bindings. .listOfValuesModel}"/>
I need to customize the size of LOV's table-field manually, or based on the attribute's UI hint.
To do so, I have written the code below in the backing-bean:
RichInputListOfValues lov = (RichInputListOfValues)launchPopupEvent.getComponent();
FacesCtrlLOVBinding.ListOfValuesModelImpl lovModel = null;
lovModel = (FacesCtrlLOVBinding.ListOfValuesModelImpl) lov.getModel();
TableModel tm = lovModel.getTableModel();
java.util.List<oracle.adf.view.rich.model.ColumnDescriptor> l = lovModel.getItemDescriptors();
But the "ColumnDescriptor" is an abstract class, and I cannot customize the size of the table.
I need to know if it's possible to do it or not?
Thanks in advance,
Shadi Khani

Hi ,
i Know my answer is too late , just today i see the post .
You can change content Size for LOV by going to look up view object --> then to attribute ---> UI hint ---> form UI hint but the size of component in "Dispaly width"

An internal table field has been defined too small

Hi,
We are getting a dump when trying to get the Financial Statements.
The error in the dump is u201CAn internal table field has been defined too smallu201D.
The field with the problem is u201CYou should define the field "HSL03" larger in program "SAPLFAGL_GLT0".The maximum size allowed for fields of type P is 16 (31 digits).
Itu2019s caused by a list of documents where the exchange rate must to be u201D/699,94001u201D but it was entered without the forward slash and it caused very big numbers
The biggest number in one document is 99,401,074,527.31 USD
The sum of all them is 13,008,701,915,208.50
Any ideas to fix this?
Thanks in advance
Jorge

have you reversed those documents with fb08 and post it with the correct exchange rate???
have you searched in SMP for similar problems - I think you've to correct the DB-values- but only in agreement with your audit firm / revision

How to change field size using SQL against an oracle Database

I am an admitted novice user, looking to become more proficient.
I have a field in a table that I need to expand the field size. The table is called Inquiries. The data type is text. The current Field Size is 10. I want to increase it, to either the max, or somethign long enough to fit TECHNOLOGY LEADERSHIP PROGRAM.
What is the SQL command to change the field size, and what is the max for a Text Field Size

And/Or, an even better question might be,
Do I need to use SQL*PLUS to do this, or are there better tools. I.e, I like how in Access, you can open up a database in Design view and just change the amount for the field size. Is there a similar "easy" method to do something like that with an Oracle database.
My current version of the server/database is:
Connected to:
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
With the Partitioning option
JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
I was thinking I had to do SQL commands to perform the action, but there may be another way that I am not thinking about with all of the tools at my disposal. When I installed Oracle on my desktop, I installed most of the management tools and networking services, if that helps

Is it possible to change dynamicaly VC table view size (width/heigth)?

Hi gurus!
So the question is: Is it possible to change dynamicaly Visual Composer table view size?
Particularly I'm interested in changing table-view height; the objective is not to use table-view paging option, instead to show all returned data rows at once.
Thanks in advance!
--- Kaspars

Hi Kaspars,
I would say there is atm no possibility to change the table view size dynamicly, because you can't input a formula into the size field so the size is fixed as you enter it.

Marcel

How to get table fields programatically?

I am using a table component with associated data provider. In the same form, I need to have a drop down with the values same as the columns/fields of the table. I am looking at the APIs to find a way to access the table fields/columns, so that I can have them in the drop down, but I can't find out.
Please note that I need to access the field names (i.e First_Name, Last_Name, User_Name, etc.) not the field values (i.e Joe, Bloe, jbloe, etc.) If it was field values, there are tons of example out there. Actually, I am trying to build searhing, where users can pick a field from the drop down, and type text to search on that field. See the screenshots here:
http://bedriven.blogspot.com/2006/08/filtering-data-table-in-java-studio.html

I tried this:
tableRowGroup.getSourceData().getFieldKeys()but, the problem is, it gives me the field names, but not the display values. I want to use the display values (i.e Last Name) for dropdown text, and field keys (i.e user_last_name) for dropdown values.
I ended up using this code to get the list of column fileds (field name in database) and the column header (display value in table header):
        Iterator it=getTableRowGroup1().getTableColumnChildren();
        Option options[]=new Option[getTableRowGroup1().getColumnCount()];
        int i=0;
        while (it.hasNext()){
            TableColumn column=(TableColumn)it.next();
            if (column.getSort()!=null){
                options=new Option(column.getSort().toString(), column.getHeaderText());
}else{
options[i]=new Option(column.getHeaderText(), column.getHeaderText());
i++;
This approach works fine. The only problem is that getTableColumnChildren returns size 0 when the page is loaded the first time. It works fine on the subsequent post backs. You can see this reported by other users as well:

Regarding spliting of the data in the internal table fields

TYPES :BEGIN OF X_flat_file,
       banks LIKE lfbk-banks,
       bankl LIKE lfbk-bankl,
       bankn LIKE lfbk-bankn,
       koinh LIKE lfbk-koinh,
       bkont LIKE lfbk-bkont,
       END OF X_flat_file.
DATA: t_itab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF X_flat_file INITIAL SIZE 0,
      wa_itab TYPE X_flat_file,
Now data in internal table is as follows:
t_itab-banks is AD,DE, AB
t_itab-bankl is 123456578,123456588,123456579
t_itab-bankn is 12345666,12345677,12345688
t_itab-koinh is vinod1,vinod2,vinod3
t_itab-bkont is 01,01,01
TYPES :BEGIN OF X_banks1,
       banks LIKE lfbk-banks,
       bankl LIKE lfbk-bankl,
       bankn LIKE lfbk-bankn,
       koinh LIKE lfbk-koinh,
       bkont LIKE lfbk-bkont,
       END OF X_banks1.
DATA: T_BANKS1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF X_BANKS1 INITIAL SIZE 0,
      WA_BANKS1 TYPE X_BANKS1,
Now i want internal table t_itab data should split at commas and transfered to internal table t_banks1.
ex : t_itab-banks is AD,DE, AB should transfered to
t_banks:   AD ( 1 record)
               DE (2 record)
               AB ( 3 record).
I used following coding ......
   SPLIT wa_itab-BANKS AT ',' INTO T_BANKS1-BANKS.
     SPLIT wa_itab-BANKL AT ',' INTO TABLE T_BANKS1-BANKL.
     SPLIT wa_itab-BANKN AT ',' INTO TABLE T_BANKS1-BANKN.
     SPLIT wa_itab-KOINH AT ',' INTO TABLE T_banks1-KOINH.
     SPLIT wa_itab-BKONT AT ',' INTO TABLE T_BANKS1-BKONT.
     SPLIT wa_itab-BANKA AT ',' INTO TABLE T_BANKA1-BANKA.
But its not working.

Account field Size

Hello Forum,
by default Account field size is only 30, what is not a lot at all.
Is it possible to change this size? Sure one can do it in the database, won't it cause any difficulties later on?
Regards,
Gulnara

If you alter the database, be sure to do it for every table... people do this all the time for content ID.
This can cause problems if you try to migrate content from one system to another, and forget to alter the field sizes in the new system. But, with the replication exceptions component, this isn't nearly as painful as it used to be!

Write Back field size

Hi,
I created a table with a write back field. I have set up everything according to the guide, tested it and it all works. Data is written back to the database.
When I select from the write back field the Column Properties -> Column Format -> Value interaction -> Field Size you can set the field length. My question is....is it also possible to set the height of the field?
One of our customers wants to use this as a field to enter remarks and follow up actions. So I actually want a square field, so the text entered in it is more readable on the screen.
Any suggestions?
Thanks and Regards,
Jeroen

Hi Venkat,
Thanks for your reply. It's been a while ago since i posted this question, but this write back feature is now actual for a customer. In the beginning it didn't seem that necessary, but now it is.
I have tried to modify my writeback template, but i cannot manage to make it work. Or do I have to make another custom xml message? Do you maybe have a suggestion on which way to handle this?
Thanks in advance!!
Regards,
Jeroen

Changeing the Database Field Size

Dear All,
In Incomeing Payment i want to increase Databse Field size of Journal Remarks upto 250 character.
I updated from backend but in Incomeing Payment layout means when i move the courser on that field it
shows 50 character.
Means i chaged from bakend but it is not changing from system.
Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem ?
Swapnil

Dear SWAPNIL PATIL,
SAP does not allow to change the table structure and
as a workaround you could add a User Defined Field in Payments > Title to save the remarks.

How do I write a select statement to see if table field is in variable list

I was wondering if someone knew the best way to write a query to pull back rows where a table field is found in a a variable string. I'm using Cold Fusion 10 on Microsoft SQL Server.
The table has a series of fields such as
carcode          carname
G                Garage
C                Carport
A               Attached
D               Detached
And another query pulls back a field that stores as text all the abbreviations that apply
I want to pull back all the carnames that would match the abbreviations stored in that field. I thought I could use a contains line but that does not work. How do I pull back matches against a variable string... I tried an IN statment but that didn't work.
CFQUERY...
Select carname from CarTable WHERE CONTAINS (carcode, '#query.carlist#') does not work.
   select carname from CarTable WHERE CONTAINS(carcode, 'G,A')
I'm stumped. The list of abbreviations could be very LOOOONG or short and I just need to translate those abbreviations into the full names by grabbing it from another table. It isn't just one abbreviation so I can't use LIKE in the one to one sense.
Thank you so much.

If you have records with these values,
G,A
0
then your first mistake is that you designed your database poorly. Storing lists in a single field is essentially stroring unuseable data. A one to many relationship is better. If you don't know what that is, I've heard good things about the book, Database Design for Mere Mortals.
Next, this syntax, #queryname.car_storage#, only returns the first record. To get all the records, use the valuelist function.
Next, in sql, if you have a list of strings, each one has to be quoted. Something like this.
where myfield in ('a', 'b', 'c')
The best way to achieve this in ColdFusion is to use the cfqueryparam tag with the list attribute set to yes.
