hey ric
i have tested ur code
i think u have got a problem with the selection criteria "date"
because i have cross checked the code you have developed and through the transaction
it is impeccably right
i think the selection of date in your report should be the range of dates in which they have been modfiied/changed
if satisfied plz do reward

Hi ,
Execute the logic below for all the values in ur requirement and see if this logic is working for you.I hope this will do .
You have to convert to characters to make this functionality work .
Im expecting some more logics from SDN members Lets wait and see .
data : v1 type p decimals 4.
data : rem(6) type c.
data : v3(13) type c.
data : val1(4) type c.
data : v4(17) type c.
v1 = '100.0000'. "give ur inputs here
v3 = trunc( v1 ).
rem = frac( v1 ).
rem = rem * 100.
val1 = rem.
condense val1 no-gaps.
condense v3 no-gaps.
if val1 is not initial.
concatenate v3 val1 into v4 separated by '.' .
else.
v4 = v3.
endif.
write:/ v4 no-zero.

Regarding Subform display problem(URGENT)

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement......I am passing 3 tables from interface to form layout...I want to display data from these tables to different subforms based on some condition
for ex...........
table T1 passing to subform S1
table T2 passing to subform S2
table T3 passing to subform S3
My requirement is these subform should be display only based on some condition like if some value is there in table T1 then only S1 subform should be display otherwise not.
Please suggest me what script i will write for this.
Regards
Gaurav

Hi,
You have to write in form calc under form ready event.
As of now, i dont have any system to check.You can check any standard forms like vendor statement / customer statement which have page totals.
for example, drag the S1 subform into one more sumforn with flow content say SS1.Write the below (similar) code.
// get total number of records
Var record_count = $.Table1.data.all.length
Var flag
Var value_check = '222'
For I = 0 upto ( record_count - 1 ) step 1 do
if $.Table1.data<i>.field1 = = value_check
flag = 'X'
endif
Endfor
if flag = = 'X'.
$.S1.presence = "hidden"
endif
Please check the syntax.

Report output display problem

I developed purchase register for vendor wise when i am displaying out put it is taking 4 lines gap for each vendor.
my output is coming as below.
Afton chemicals 100020 01.2.2008
sector 6             10021   02.2.2008

here it is taking 4 line space

abatap chemicals 456789 12.03.2008
deonar                  123456 13.03.2008
mumbai
again 4 lines space it is taking.
i have given line-count 10.
in my pogram i have used with in loops
reserved 8 lines and back statement.
how to reduce space between each vendor.
i written code as ..
report puchase order line-count 10.
loop at output.
onchange of output-name1.
reserved 8 lines.
write: output-date , output-amount.
back.
endon.
write: output-billno.

Hi,
the reason for your program behaviour is the combination of reserve 8 lines. and the back. statement You could either reduce the number of 8 lines, try to do without back or use a simple skip.

Hello -
My iMac has developed a video display problem. Everything now appears in a strange, cartoonish way. Purples, greens, blues. Can this be fixed, and if so, any idea how much it might cost? Also, could I output to a seperate monitor? I plan to replace the unit , but cannot right now. Thanks!

Go to System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing.
In the Display area, reset it to "Black on white" by clicking that checkbox.
You can also reset it by pressing Command-Option-Control-8

Another dual display problem - GeForce FX 5200

I've seen lots of questions about dual display problem, situation when trying to connect two non-apple vga displays to your graphic card.
I have GeForce FX 5200 graphic card, with 2 display output's. And two DELL 17" vga LCD displays.
I manage to connect 1 display regulary with dvi to vga converter, but for other display I tried several difrent converters ADC to DVI to VGA, and it just did NOT work.
G5 could see other display in display settings, in arrange option I coud see two identical displays, but I don't get anu picture (desktop) on other display???
Is it problem with output's on my graphic card (Gforce FX 5200), could it be soloved with some ADC to VGA converter?
P.S. Dr. Bott ADC VGA Extractor is not compatible with GeForce FX 5200????

This won't work if the ADC to DVI adapter is not passing through the analog signals needed for VGA.

Ideacentre B320 display problem

I'm suffering from a display problem, and cannot figure if it's a software or hardware issue... I'm on Win7 64bit. Here are the symptoms:
1) For a while now, intermittently the screen would go grey (or some sort of a messed up pattern of rgb pixels) and I would have to power down forcefully. The frequency of this has gone up very much in the recent weeks
2) When the machine freezes, I can still hear the music playing, and Windows continues to do whatever it was doing before
3) Recently (I'm guessing after a Windows update), I wasn't able to boot into normal mode anymore. It would show the Windows splash screen, then before the login screen appears it would just go black and freeze. Leaving it for a long time doesn't lead to recovery
4) To try and fix this, I've updated the ATI driver to the latest version, which didn't work so progressively tried every version between the11.6 and 10.3 (4?) which was the default when the machine was purchased. No luck there. I've also flashed the bios and that didn't help either
5) I can boot into safe mode, so I disabled amdkmdap using sysinternal's autoruns.exe, which meant that I can boot into normal mode, but it woud fall back onto Windows' vga driver (1400x1050 only!)
6) Now, even in the low res mode, almost daily the grey screen freezing would happen and I would have to reboot. Tapping the power button allows the shutdown dialog to come up (I'm guessing), and pressing enter would shut down the machine then.
There's an awful lot of posts on the internet regarding people having issues with ATI HD6450 and similar category cards, some of which sound similar to my case. They too experienced the freezing problem and reverting or upgrading the drivers had no effect (many even reinstalled windows completely). It sounds like though, the problem is software in origin at a guess.
On the other hand, the machine is now 3-4 years old and I could imagine that the GPU or graphics memory might have suffered wear and tear -- emailing Lenovo support took a week to get a response, the only thing they asked was whether my warranty is still active (after that it's been a complete silence) are they usually this terrible?
The last thing is, when the problem first occurred I booted using a linux live CD and it was all fine, at full resolution graphics. I haven't repeated this experiment since it takes quite a while to boot from a CD... but suggested that the hardware is intact. In fact, by messing about with the drivers I was able to boot into Windows normal mode and operate for 1-2 days, after which the grey freeze happened again. I haven't been able to get back into that since.
Here is my question: Is there a way to find out whether it's software or hardware that's at fault? If it turns out to be hardware, what are my options at replacements? The GPU is soldered onto the motherboard, so do I have to replace the whole thing? If it's a software issue, would restoring to factory default state fix this issue, given that an unknown update could cause the same issue at any time... This is the last time I will buy an AIO without removable everything.

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
Probably a good test of the hardware is use the Linux Live CD that you used earlier. If the graphics are still good when using the Live CD then your monitor and GPU are fine.
If the hardware checks out Ok then I suspect you have a driver problem. Try using a driver cleaner to fully uninstall the ATI driver since bit and pieces left over from previous driver installs can cause problems. The link below is for a free and highly recommended utility for cleaning the system of the graphic drivers. After the clean up I would try installing the original driver that came with your system.
