I have a combobox with "Limit to list Yes" property and i want to allow a specific String via NotInList event but it still warns me..
i tried this:
Private Sub combo_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer)
If NewData = "Check-in" Then Exit Sub
End Sub
Cannot input data that is not in RowSource when LimitToList is Yes.
If RowSource is a table then data must be added to table. If data is a ValueList then it must be added to array list.
NotInList event is intended as means to add value to data source 'on the fly' during data entry.
If you don't want to have this value in table, can use a UNION query as RowSource to include "Check-in".
SELECT "Check-in" FROM table
UNION SELECT field FROM table;

I'm making a Microsoft Access table where one of the fields is a list of pre-made options. When I make a SQL query on that table it returns the values of the list as strings containing the spelled out choice. I would like to assign numerical values to each element of the list so a SQL query returns a number instead. How do I do this? I know it's possible because I have an access file with such a list but I'm unable to recreate it.
An easy way to do this is to have your combo box use a query of the table as a Rowsource. This query would have the table unique ID in the first field and the field you wish to return as the second field. Then change the setting on the combo box for "Column Count" to 2. If you want to show both fields change the "Column Widths" value to 1"; 1". If you want to show only one field, change the value of one you do not want to see to 0. Now we you refer to this list in an SQL queries, it will use the ID field but show the user the string field.
I have an interactive grid which has a dynamic action to fetch returns from another table
begin
for c in (select
REW_SIZE,
IN_STOCK,
DESCRIPTION,
FINANCIAL_YEAR_ID
into
:REW_SIZE,
:IN_STOCK,
:DESCRIPTION,
:FINANCIAL_YEAR_ID
from
T_SORDER_PROFOMA_REWINDING
where so_id = :so_id)
loop
:REW_SIZE := c.REW_SIZE;
:IN_STOCK :=c.IN_STOCK;
:DESCRIPTION:=c.DESCRIPTION;
:FINANCIAL_YEAR_ID:=c.FINANCIAL_YEAR_ID;
end loop;
end;
When I had simple select into query, it gave "exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows" thn I applied the above code but it returns only 2nd row. I have 2 rows in the table for this ID.
For what I understand, you want to get some extra data columns. Your best shot is to create a view to join these table and deliver the columns you need. If you need editing, you will have to create an instead of trigger on the view as well, to do a correct dml on one or both tables.
create view which joins both tables
create instead of trigger (if you need editing)
query of the Interactive Grid should be on the view
This solution adds the extra data columns to the source of the IG, which is better and easier in my opinion.
I have two Select Lists, first one contains data from database (names, ids; P19_FIRST), second one must contain another list of data (names; P19_SECOND) by data from first select list. I create dynamic action (change event) which one must update second select list by data from first one, but this does not happens. When I choose element from first select list, dynamic action must set value with SQL statement for second list (P19_SECOND):
select distinct name d, id r
from function
where function.company_id = :P19_FIRST
order by id
If I trying same code for Display Only instead of Select List, it works, but shows only names, without ids. By default (List of Values) for item P19_SECOND query is same and it works correctly (value is id and option name is name). What I doing wrong?
I have a table, DEBTOR, with a structure like this:
and a second table, DEBTOR.INFO structured like this:
I have a select list made of record IDs from the DEBTOR.INFO table. How can I
select * from DEBTOR WHERE 53 IN (name of select list)?
Is this even possible?
I realize this query looks more like SQL than RetrieVe but I wrote it that way for an easier understanding of what I'm trying to accomplish.
Currently, I accomplish this query by writing
SELECT DEBTOR WITH 53 EQ [paste list of DEBTOR.INFO record IDs]
but obviously this is unwieldy for large lists.
It looks to me that you cant do that. Even if you use and i-descriptor, It only works in one direction. TRANS("DEBTOR.INFO",53,0,"X") works from the DEBTOR file but not the other way. So TRANS("DEBTOR",#ID,53,"X") from DEBTOR.INFO will return nothing.
See this article on U2's site for a possible solution.
Would something like this work (two steps):
SELECT DEBTOR.INFO SAVING PACKET
LIST DEBTOR ....
This creates a select list of the data in the PACKET field in the DEBTOR.INFO file and makes it active. (If you have duplicate values that way you can add the keyword UNIQUE after SAVING).
Then the subsequent LIST command uses that active select list which contains values found in the #ID field of the file DEBTOR.
Not sure if you are still looking at this, but there is a simple option that will not require a lot of programming.
I did it with a program, a subroutine and a dictionary item.
First I set a named common variable to contain the list of DEBTOR.INFO ids:
SETLIST
*
* Use named common to hold list of keys
COMMON /MYKEYS/ KEYLIST
*
* Note for this example I am reading the list from SAVEDLISTS
OPEN "SAVEDLISTS" TO FILE ELSE STOP "CAN NOT OPEN SAVEDLISTS"
READ KEYLIST FROM FILE, "MIKE000" ELSE STOP "NO MIKE000 ITEM"
Now, I can create a subroutine that checks for a value in that list
CHECKLIST
SUBROUTINE CHECKLIST( RVAL, IVAL)
COMMON /MYKEYS/ KEYLIST
LOCATE IVAL IN KEYLIST <1> SETTING POS THEN
RVAL = 1
END ELSE RVAL = 0
RETURN
Lastly, I use a dictionary item to call the subroutine with the field I am looking for:
INLIST:
I
SUBR("CHECKLIST", FK)
IN LIST
10R
S
Now all I have to do is put the correct criteria on my list statement:
LIST DEBTOR WITH INLIST = 1 ACCOUNT STATUS FK
Id use the very powerfull EVAL with an XLATE ;
SELECT DEBTOR WITH EVAL \XLATE('DEBTOR.INFO',#RECORD<53>,'-1','X')\ NE ""
We are populating a subregion of a page with an Iframe (call to another page) with data for a questionnaire.
We have PAGE ITEM variables (:P37_... populated by query) that contain table values for P37_QUESTION_DESCRIPTION and P37_RESPONSE_TYPE.
The sub page used in the region (:P28_...) assigns report attributes for each column... where We populated the question text in the P28_QUESTION_DESC and a Y/N Select List defined list of values in the P28_RESPONSE_DESC_DISPLAY column. This works fine.
Now, the P37_RESPONSE_TYPE can more than just this Y/N Select List. It could be TEXTAREA, PICKLIST, DATE...
How can we define the :P28_RESPONSE_DESC_DISPLAY column dynamically to be any number of user input field types (based on the value in :P37_REPSONSE_TYPE?)
This was solved by using a non-tabular form report generated by query using apex.item functions. But is has left me with another problem. Here's the query:
select
apex_item.hidden(31,CASE_QUEST_DTL_ID) CASE_QUEST_DTL_ID,
apex_item.hidden(32,CASE_MGMT_BASE_ID) CASE_MGMT_BASE_ID,
apex_item.display_and_save(33,to_number(question_seq_no)) QUESTION_SEQ_NO,
apex_item.display_and_save(34,question_desc) QUESTION_DESC,
case when response_type = 'PICKLIST-YESNO' then apex_item.select_list_from_lov(35,response_desc,'YES_NO_SELECTLIST',NULL,'NO')
when response_type = 'TEXTFIELD' then apex_item.text(35,response_desc)
when response_type = 'TEXTAREA' then apex_item.textarea(35,response_desc,5,40)
when response_type = 'DATEPICKER' then APEX_ITEM.DATE_POPUP2(35,to_date(response_desc,'dd-mon-yyyy'),'dd-mon-yyyy')
end RESPONSE_DESC
from V_CASE_QUEST_LINK
where question_set_code like 'COB_Q%'
and case_mgmt_base_id = :P37_CASE_MGMT_BASE_ID
My problem is now grouping the questions by question_set_code. Because GROUP BY is evaluated after the select, it cannot simply be tacked on to the end of the query. I'm not sure that using a nested select will work here because of the apex.item calls. Anyone have a suggestion on how I can group these questions by the column?
