Drop down datawindow within datawindow
I have a datawindow that is attached to a PL/SQL stored procedure that is supposed to list records. Several of the fields in the list are identified as Style DropDownDW. The intent is that for these fields there will be multiple values available by using a vertical scroll bar and arrow. For example, a record in the window might have Name Address Medical Code Medical code would also be a drop down list box with multiple values. Is there a simple way to implement this in Powerbuilder 9? What kind of PB coding constructs would be necessary? Thanks Generally, the steps are: ...

Blah blah blah You've heard it enough that you don't even want to comment on how many times... The DataWindow. ....but it can't be enough anymore...can it?

DataWindow Within DataWindow
How Can I access/modify object/control from a Datawindow within Datawindow. When i access/modify object/control from a Datawindow i used dw_1.modify("name.text = 'new val'") but within another datawindow or child datawindow it doesnt work. Your description is difficult to understand due to the terminology. First, a datawindow is assigned to a control - either a datawindow control or a datastore. Second, the Modify function can only be called within a script. With that as a basis, can you rephrase the question and describe more precisely what you want to do? ...

datawindows in composite datawindow used in datawindow.NET, are not sliding up
Hi, Problem: datawindows in composite datawindow used in "datawindow.NET", are not sliding up , if one dw is not visible or did not retrieve data. Resulting in unwanted spaces. The height of blank white space is equal to the height of the datawindow art design time. When I looked at the generated JavaScript, I noticed there is "div" for the datawindow with height 0.00in which is supposed to be not visible. Tried different options with html/xhtml/xml same result. But slides up ok when exported to pdf(using saveas) on web and in PB10.5 application. Also s...

Drop Down Datawindow issues in Datawindow
We recently moved from version 8.0.3 9704 to 8.0.3 9977. Since this move we have had nothing but grief with DropDownDatawindow style columns. Basically - we have columns that are dropdowns that the user can enter their values into or, scroll down and select from. We then have code that verifies that the value entered in the column exists in the drop down list (i.e. is the data entered by the user valid). When we get the value from the column (using either dot notation or, getitem functions) PB is giving us the display value for the drop down NOT the code value. SOMETIMES whe...

embedding a datawindow within a datawindow
Below is a sample of the format for a report I need to create. The report will display courses that may or may not be part of group, because the people running the courses can choose from all the courses available to create their own "group" of courses. Since a course may or may not be part of a group would using an embedded datawindow for the group info work? How? Can anyone point me in the right direction? The data is coming from two tables.

datawindow
Add direct setting and getting capability for the datawindow where clause. This would have to be a string array in case of unions. Return ONLY the where clause(s) in the main select (in case of sub-selects, ignore the where clause or somehow list it as a subselect in the where or a subselect in the select). It would be great if I could just get and set this as a value and have the datawindow automatically change (or add) the where clause as specified. This is for setting the where clause dynamically at run time. Currently have to parse through the datawindow.table.select looking f...

Datawindows with child datawindows
I want to create a datawindow whose only data is three columns that will themselves be drop-down data windows. These child datawindows will be populated in PB script with dw_1.GetChild(). When I create that parent datawindow (New | Datawindow | Freeform), what do I choose in the next dialog box ("Which datasource would you like to use?") External? Thanks. That depends on how you want to populate and use the columns of the main DW. The DDDW is an edit style that assists the user in selecting a value for the column in the main DW. If you want to retrieve the values ...
