Date field in DD.MM.YYYY format printing as MM.DD.YYYY

HI all,
There is a DATE field FKDAT in an invoice whose value is in DD.MM.YYYY format (01.07.2010).
In the print program, this value is being passed into a CHAR field. However, when it gets printed it prints in MM.DD.YYYY format (07.01.2010).
I have already checked the user settings under Own Data and it is in the DD.MM.YYYY format.
Please advise.
Thanks and regards,
Anishur

Hi ,
In the invoice printing program you should use 'WRITE' syntax which will write the date as per user's date format.
e.g write it_tab-fkdat to gv_date.
Declare gv_date as character 10.

How to convert a date field with format (dd,mm,yyyy) to format (mm,dd,yyyy)

Hello.
How to convert a date field with format (dd,mm,yyyy) to format (mm,dd,yyyy)
I have text field which has a databind to a date field. When I click on it, we can select the date, it is added on the format (dd,mm,yyyy). When I want to insert this date field to a database It doesnu2019t allow me to do it because it will only accept date field on the format (mm,dd,yyyy)
I tried to store this format on a date variable and I get a message saying that is impossible to convert a string into a date.
Regards,
Jose

Hi Jose,
usually you format strings in c# like
string.Format("{0:yyyyMMdd}", insertyourstring);
in your case
string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", insertyourstring);
[look here|http://idunno.org/archive/2004/14/01/122.aspx]
there are more details
if everything fails split the string with Mid()
or ask me

Take the Substring Function From Text Functionsand mention the position from 0 to 10 to take the Date alone from the Whole String which is getting in Source Field.
And after that apply the Transform date Function fron Date Functions and mention the source date format and the target date foramt that needs to convert into.

How can I update data fields in a merged document ?

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to update the values of data fields in a merged document with a script just as you can do with the user interface.
I don't find any method like "updateDataFields ()" in the DataMerge object.
Si I try to invoke the menu action "Update Data Fields", but it fails. The script error message is: "Error 53762, the script is not active." On the contrary, the action works if I use the interface.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,

How to replace blank values in DATE field with 00000000

Hi
I have a DSO with Date field in which there are blank values. I want to replace the blank values in the DSO for date field with 00000000. Because of this blank values in the DSO the report is giving an ORA error.
How do we replace the blank values in the DSO for historical data and also the new loads?
Please advise.
Thank you.
Regards,
Pavan.

Hi Suman,
I'm trying to run a query built on a DSO. The DSO has a field 'Start Date'. This Start Date InfoObject has a reference Char as 0DATE.
This Start Field has blank values due to which I'm getting the ORA-01722 error. I came across many threads with same topic of discussion. As mentioned in one of the Threads I have written a program to update 'Start Date' with 00000000. The code wriiten is "UPDATE /BIC/AZ_MONINV00 SET /BIC/ZSTR_DTE = '00000000' where /BIC/ZSTR_DTE = ' '.
Now when I see the data in the active data table of DSO the blank value is replaced with '00000000'.
But If I right click on the DSO click on display data the 'Start Date' field is blank. And now the Query also gets executed without any error. But in the output of the query the 'Start Date' Field has "#" values.
Can anyone suggest on how to remove these "#" values in the report?

Error while updating Date Field on Process Form.

Hi,
I am using java code to pre-pop date on the process form.First I used a java code whic took java.sql.date as input and returned the same java.sql.date.But it gave an error that:java.lang.String cannot be converted to java.sql.date.......
So I changed the java code and now it takes string as input and returns java.sql.date. This code works fine for Pre-pop adapter and the date is populated on the process form.
But when i use the same code in a Process Task adapter to update the date, then it gives the following error:
ERROR [ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' XELLERATE.ADAPTERS - Class/Method: tcAdpEvent/updateDataSetValuePost encounter some problems: Adapter Execution Error: updateDataObjFieldValuePost: error updating UD_OID_USR_DATE_OF_BIRTH
ERROR [ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' XELLERATE.ADAPTERS - Class/Method: tcAdpEvent/updateDataSetValuePost encounter some problems: {1}
Can anyone suggest any method to update date field on process form?

Hi Abhi,
Can you tell me how you have implemented populating an UDF based on Prepopulation of another UDF. I have a similar kind of requirement. It would be great if you share your code or relevant part of it.

Update Date field automatically

When a user is adding a new entry I want two of the fields in the table to be automatically updated without the user knowing (hidden fields), I want a current date and time to be entered into the Updated Date field and the :APP_USER to be entered into the Updated_by VARCHAR2 field.
How do I go about doing this can I just put code to do so into the source of ITEMS or do I have to create a process?
Thanks

Create Multiple Signature and Date fields with a custom Toolbar Button

First off, thanks in advance! I am a scripting newbie and I am trudging my way through with very little experience with scripting of any kind. I am good at taking other's scripts and forming them into something I need, but I can't seem to find anything to do what I want.
Using Adobe Acrobat X, I am trying to create a toolbar button that I can press to create multiple signature and date fields with predetermined locations.
Below is the script I have that is working to create just a single signature box, but I can't seem to figure out the exact syntax to have that same button create multiple fields. In total it is 9 signature fields and 9 date fields need to be created. If you can just give me an example of what the button would look like with multiple scripts? I was assuming I would set up multiple variables and then in the cExec property of the toolbar button I could just call out all of those variables?
var sigswm = "addField('sigSWM', 'signature', '0', [108, 198, 494.64, 72])"
app.addToolButton({cName: "dotbutton", cExec: sigswm, cLabel: "Place Signature and Date Blocks",});
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Billy Sweeney

Thanks! That was probably the only thing I didn't try.
I do have one more question. What I want is when the signature field is clicked it fills out a specific date field. I beleive the script I want would be:
var currentTime = new Date()
    var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
    var day = currentTime.getDate()
    var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
    var signingTime = day +"/"+month+"/"+year
    var f = this.getField("dateSWM");
    f.value = signingTime;
I found this on another thread that mentioned it could be placed in the Signed tab of the signature properties dialog. I am assuming it would be placed in my button script file as a setAction script for each signature, but I am not real sure exactly where or how?

How to insert/update Date field in Oracle with java code

Dear All
I have to insert/update a date column while creating a new item, but the problem is i am able to insert/update only date but i need both date and time along with AM/PM.
By using these 3 lines i am able to insert/update only date.
java.util.Date date = new java.util.Date();
long dateLong = date.getTime();
stmtPrep.setDate(33, new java.sql.Date(dateLong));
Below code retrives the date exactly what i need but unable to pass in the statement:
DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss a");
java.util.Date d = (Date) new java.util.Date();
String stringdate = formatter.format(d);
String tmpdate = dateFormat();
stmtPrep.setString(33, tmpdate); -- I tried with setObject as well but same error coming.
Error is:
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
Can u guide me how to get full date time with AM/PM?

stmtPrep.setDate(33, new java.sql.Date(dateLong));That's by design. A java.sql.Date object matches an SQL DATE column (which doesn't include a time component). If you want something which matches an SQL TIMESTAMP colum (which includes both date and time components) then you should use a java.sql.Timestamp object.

Updating a date field witha field from another table

based on their Customer_type... So james and Jill would have their rows updated in this scneario ..How can i achive this in pl/Sql
Thank you in advance...

Hi,
You can look at this code; it's not PL/SQL but a simple MERGE statement:
CREATE TABLE CUSTOMER_TYPE
type_code VARCHAR2(10),
active_date DATE,
inactive_date DATE
INSERT INTO customer_type VALUES('REGULAR', TO_DATE('11/01/2011', 'DD/MM/YYYY'), null);
INSERT INTO customer_type VALUES('DAILY', TO_DATE('11/04/2011', 'DD/MM/YYYY'), null);
INSERT INTO customer_type VALUES('MONTHLY', TO_DATE('11/05/2011', 'DD/MM/YYYY'), TO_DATE('11/11/2011', 'DD/MM/YYYY'));
CREATE TABLE CUSTOMERS
customer_name varchar2(10),
customer_type varchar2(10),
customer_inactive_date DATE
INSERT INTO customers VALUES('John', 'REGULAR', null);
INSERT INTO customers VALUES('James', 'MONTHLY', null);
INSERT INTO customers VALUES('Jake', 'DAILY', null);
INSERT INTO customers VALUES('Jill', 'MONTHLY', null);
MERGE INTO customers dst
USING customer_type src
ON (dst.customer_type = src.type_code)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE set dst.customer_inactive_date = src.inactive_date;
SELECT * FROM customers;
CUSTOMER_NAME CUSTOMER_TYPE CUSTOMER_INACTIVE_DATE
John          REGULAR
James         MONTHLY       11-NOV-11
Jake          DAILY
Jill          MONTHLY       11-NOV-11                 If you don't understand it, just let me know...

Update new field with existing data programmatically

I have a requirement to write a code that update an existing lookup field.
We are running sharepoint 2010. We have a content type, which is used throughout all the sites. The content type has a field called Product, which is a lookup field for all the products we have. The field also contains subproducts. For example, a product
by name PR1000 has a subproduct PR1010 all in the same drop down menu.
Now we want to change this grouping and separate them based on product and subproduct. I have created new field called Parent Product (PP) and Child Product(CP).
I would like to programmatically update the Parent Product field with Product and Child PRoduct field with child product if any. So here is how it works; if an existing item or document has product PR1010, I would to update PP with PR1000 and CP with 1010.
The problem I am having in order to start this project is the product field is part of every document library and lists and there are 1000s of items with data for product.
Please help with ideas or suggestions. I am thinking of a feature event receiver, which when activated will automatically update every item with product field not empty.
Thanks for your help in advance.

As Bruno suggested ,if its on time activity and on the all site then so go with Powershell
script. use feature event receiver when it require on the selected site and if this require to extend
other sites so that contol will be at your end,else you need to again modified the powershell script.

Update text fields with xml data based on DDL selection of an ID number

Hi guys,
this one should be straight forward, but I cant seem to find a straight forward answer. In a nutshell:
XML file contains ID, Name, Location (so far 3 records in sample xml file)
Form contains a Dynamic Drop down list to allow selection of ID and text fields to display the associated name and location of that ID. The binding of the Drop down works fine, however I need the other fields to update to the associated name and location when different ID's are selected. I assume I'll need some sort of exit event on the drop down list to update the other fields with the Name and location of the ID selected, but I dont know enough to have a stab at it.
please, please, please help, Im starting to pull my hair out.
James.

Hi James,
This would depend on the structure of your XML but assuming you have something like;
<Data>
            <Item>
                        <Id>1</Id>
                        <Name>Name1</Name>
                        <Location>Location1</Location>
            </Item>
            <Item>
                        <Id>2</Id>
                        <Name>Name2</Name>
                        <Location>Location2</Location>
            </Item>
            <Item>
                        <Id>3</Id>
                        <Name>Name3</Name>
                        <Location>Location3</Location>
            </Item>
</Data>
Then in the change event of your dropdown (your could use the exit event but then value might not have changed so would be performing unnecessary processing) add the following code.
var itemGroup = $data.Data.resolveNode("Item.(Id.value === '"+xfa.event.change+"')");
Name.rawValue = itemGroup.Name.value;
Location.rawValue = itemGroup.Location.value;
The xfa.event.change will be the value selected, the resolveNode will return the Item with the matching Id, and then it is just a matter of assigning it to your form fields.
Hope this gets you started.
Regards
Bruce
