UDF Form UID

Hi all.
Anybody knows how to get the UDF Form UID corresponding to any form???
UDF Form Type is "-" & FormUID but, is there corresponding between UIDs?
Really, i need it to reference an item in UDF Form by code, and I think this is the unique way
Thnk all
Ñ: Hola a todos¿Alguien sabe como averiguar el UID del UDF Form correspondiente a uno dado?
Es decir, de la misma manera que el tipo es el tipo del formulario con "-" delante, ¿como puedo saber el UID del UDF Form?
Realmente lo quiero para referenciar un Item del UDF Form por codigo, y pienso que esta es la unica manera
Gracias

Hi
if you want to read some data of a userfield try this
put this  on itemevent, this code is only for reading, isn't permitted to use setvalue in a system form
If pVal.FormTypeEx = "nnn" Then
    'nnn must be the number of your system form i.e 140 delivery
    'SBO_App is your application object
        Dim datos As DBDataSource
        Set datos = SBO_App.Forms.ActiveForm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("XXXX") 'puede ser OINV, ORDR o lo que sea
        Dim valor As String
         valor = datos.GetValue("U_YourUserField", 0)
    End If
Ñ:Hola
si quieres leer de la ventana de campos de usuario pon el codigo que te he puesto arriba en el itemevent y con eso conseguiras acceder al campo de usuario del documento que tengas activo en ese momento, no se puede asignar valor de este modo si el form principal es del sistema , esperemos que en el 2005 si se pueda.

  • To disable close button of the UDF form

    Hi,
    I need to disable the close button of a UDF form. Can anyone help me pls.
    Manu.

    Hi Manu,
    Herewith a code example... This would disable the close button on the Sales Order window (and only the first window)
      Dim oform As SAPbouiCOM.Form
      <i>'loop through all the forms here if you need</i>
      <i>'i am using "-FormType" here as the UDF window has the same UID as the normal form, but with negative sign</i>
      oform = oApplication.Forms.GetForm("-139", 0)
      Dim oItem As SAPbouiCOM.Item
      <i>'Close button is 4</i>
      oItem = oform.Items.Item("4")
      <i>'Disable button</i>
      oItem.Enabled = False
    Hope it helps,

  • Updating UDFs in the UDF form of a sales order

    I got the UDF form of a corresponding main sales order form.
    I am trying to set a value for one of the UDFs there, but I get a 'General Failure' exception (Simply trying to set the edittext's UDFItem.Value or UDFItem.String properties)
    I know I have the right form and item, since I can change the item's BackColor.
    The DBDataSource.GetValue works, so I can read the existing values.
    The DBDataSource.SetValue doesn't work, but I'm used to it
    Any ideas?

    Hi Yoav,
    If Not SBO_Application.Menus.item("6913").Checked Then 
         SBO_Application.SendKeys "^+U"
    End If
    6913 is user defined field menu item id.
    you can see user defined form is opened everytime you open a certain form with that code samples in form_load event.
    hope this can help you.

  • Check Weather UDF Form Exist or Not ?

    Hi Ganesh,
    You can check the status of the menu visible and/or checked to see if the UDF form is visible.

  • How to know if a UDF form is opened else then using a TRY CATCH ?

    I'm looking for any way to find out if the UDF form is visible
    else then trying to open it in a try catch and if it's not sending a key.  This if very ugly, slow and not really my kind.
    I tried to iterate through all the forms in SBO_Application.Forms but it's not there.  All I see is the main form
    I just need to make sure the UDF form is visible when Inventory form is loaded so I can put a value in one of the UDF
    If there's a better way I'm buying it

    Hi Marc,
    Rather than putting your data in the UDF in the UDF side form, you can add a control to the main form (during the load event of the form) and bind this to the UDF through the DBDataSource that is already available on the main form. This means that you don't need to worry about whether the UDF form is open or not because you can always read or write to your UDF data from the main form.
    Alternatively, the UDF form TypeEx property is always the same as the main form but with a minus sign in front. Therefore, if you know the TypeEx and FormTypeCount of the main form then you can use the GetForm method of the Application object to get the UDF form.
    oForm = _sboApp.Forms.GetForm("-" + oMainForm.TypeEx, oMainForm.TypeCount);
    You'd still need a try/catch around this and if it raises an error then activate the 6913 menu to open the UDF form.
    Kind Regards,

  • UDF  form flickering problem

    Hi  All,
    We have observed a strange behaviour in SAP UDF , ie; whenever the control goes to any of the UDF field the main form and the UDF form are getting refreshed many times. or in more acurate terms, the FORM_ACTIVATE  and FORM_DEACTIVATE events are triggerred at least 30 -40 times on both the forms.
    The problem is that , the same is very much visible if the UDF is a edit text field and not a combo field and there is a formatted search obn that field . If the user selects the values from the formatted search screen ( from a list of valus) , after the value is selected the field flicker many times...
    Is there any way to get aroud this problem  . Our clients are not accepting this behaviour of SAP.
    Regards,

    No. Even if no SDK is running also the same problem happens. Is it the normal SAP behavour.? Can this be changed?

    Hi all,
    Do you know where in the database is the information about whether or not to display the UDF form for a given standard form and a given user?

    I think it is stored in the OUSR table, in the UserPrefs field. But the field is binary and you can´t get understandable data from there.

  • Udf form reference

    hello everybody
    i wanted to get a reference of the used defined field form which is associated with the active system form
    can someone suggest me what the best way to do it???

    I wrap a try block around the attempt to retrieve the udf form & if that
    fails I activate the UDF form.
    try
    Form UFForm = B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.GetForm("-" + form.TypeEx, form.TypeCount);
    catch
    B1App.ActivateMenuItem("6913") 'display udf screen
    Form UFForm = B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.GetForm("-" + form.TypeEx, form.TypeCount);
    end try
    I think I mixed C# & VB code in there, but I'm sure you get the idea.

  • UDF Form et_KEY_DOWN event.

    Hi all,
    Has anyone had problems with the above event? I cannot seem to trap it on a UDF form, it works fine on a standard form. Using SBO 6.5 SP1 P7. For example:
    - This code works fine.
    Set oFilter = oFilters.Add(et_CLICK)
    oFilter.Add -139     'Sales Order UDF form.
    If pVal.FormType = -139 And pVal.EventType = et_CLICK Then
            oApp.MessageBox "hello"
    End If
    - This doesn't work.
    Set oFilter = oFilters.Add(et_KEY_DOWN)
    oFilter.Add -139     'Sales Order UDF form.
    If pVal.FormType = -139 And pVal.EventType = et_KEY_DOWN Then
            oApp.MessageBox "hello"
    End If
    Any suggestions?

  • Choosfromlist in UDF fields

    Hi All,
    I have added some User Defined Fields to Sales Order window. Can I place a choose fromlist in  one of these UDF fields. If can, please give the code.

    Hi Jisha,
    Vasu is right, but you can update the Sales Orders form with a new tab that contains your user fields. And in these fields you can add the CFL has you would do in a standard user form (you can even add the CFL in the XML form).
    Example of the user form:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16" ?>

  • UDF retrieval help

    Hey All,
    Can anyone tell me how I can properly read a UDF field from the UDF form on the purchase order screen?
    Usually i just read the text value from the activeform but of course this does not work for the UDF form as it is not the active form.
    A code example on how to do this would be really appreciated.

    Well yes... but it's ugly...
    When you open a form it gets a unique uid like "F_139"... The sidebar also get a UID, and that UID it always one higher (Sidebar for F_139 would have uid "F_140")... So with some substrings, conversion to integer, integer++ and back to a string uid you should be able to get the uid of the sidebar... problem is that if the sidebare is not active "F_140" will not exist... You can handle that using try catch or more correct check if menuitem "6913" (Userdefined Fields) is checked...
    Works... Think so... Ugly... Hell yes .. I would go with the dbdatasouce solution + active-item on the main form if it was me
