Re: Reporting question
Warren, Depending on the number of reports and number of variables they want to search by. You can build a display only form to run reports from On the form a field to select (from a menu) pre-defined reports. And Variable fields as need (ie. Start Date, End Date, Assigned To, Category, ect...) Use ALs to display the variable fields needed for the report selected. Users fill in the variable fields and click a Run Report button. Each report has a dedicated AL (Run if Qual) to Open Window (Report) Use the Variable fields to compose the Qualification for the report in the AL.

Save the form and clear the cache on the web server 6. Open the form and notice that the first panel expands WA past the defined size of 200 and takes up all the available space of the panel holder down to the second panel, which is regular/defined size. In other words, the bug appears to be that the first panel is expanded to take up the entire height of the panel holder field. It's not a functionality killer, but it is a BIG source of distraction/complaint by testers...whoa, why is this section so huge? Good question.

You are restricting a lot more than just wildcards If your intent is to only allow ALPHA NUMERIC (and spaces) in your searches then that will do it.

Why not 'field' LIKE %[%]% Note that the % sign should not be a wildcard as it is within the [] construct which says to treat things inside it as characters. This says to match when there is a % in the value. Now, you could add other specific characters as well within the test if you cared to (like match any single character or even the [ in case someone wanted to try a set of characters] but is that really necessary? Isn't it just the % that is the issue? Now, if you wanted to keep what you have and just allow space in addition, just add a space in the set of characters.

Re: Panel / Page Holder behavior on ARS 7.6.04 P2
Tadeu, Create an AL to change the field to Hidden when a particular Tab/Panel is selected The drawback is you'll need an AL for each Tab/Panel to Hide or Un-Hide the field.

Here goes my predicament: For instance, How could I create a scenario that a Character Field is shared through 3 pages of 5 pages available on a specific form? Using the property Shared Fields (at Panels from a Page Holder component), the Character Field is visible in all of the 5 pages of my Page Holder. I'm referring to my component as Page Holder because I've done the upgrade coming from ARS 7.0.01. Since I share a field, it become available on all the 5 pages. As a workaround for this problem, I used a non-fancy way of working with Trim Box's components to hide my Character Field in specific pages.

Re: Character Field with menu object
Vincent, If by Append Menu Values you are referring to the ability to select multiple values from the menu but not allow free text entry. You could have a button display a Table (in a dialog window) with values equivalent to you menu Allow multiple selections from the table Do a table walk to compile selected values and place results in your Character field. Add a couple change field actions to enable and disable access to the field at the beginning and end and it might be what you are looking for.

Re: Created and Resolved Same Day
Frank With the user tool only you might need to settle for resolved within 24 hours If the user works an 8 hour day you could set the resolved in less than to 8 hours This would eliminate any that were created one day but resolved the next day but within 24 hours.

Re: Display as Text for Character Field
Lisa, If you set the field up as a normal Read/Write Character Field and set the group permissions to the field as Read User in the group can read and search the field but not modify the content. To keep the look and feel of read only, Create a AL to change the field to Read Only Execute on Display and Window Open Run If: (($OPERATION$ = CREATE) OR ($OPERATION$ = SET)) OR ($OPERATION$ = SET ALL) To allow yourself (or others) to modify the contents Create a second AL to change the field back to Read/Write Greg Givens (Contractor) Network Applications Support Comm: (901) 874-6957 mailto:gregory.giv...@navy.mil -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of LJ LongWing Sent: Monday, November 01, 2010 11:24 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Display as Text for Character Field ** Read Only is only a client attribute only..push or set should work into it without issue.
