If you are using 2-way binding for the data: Edit an input from the beginning or middle of the string. You will notice after the first character, the cursor will move to the end of the line.
Can someone help with a workaround with this or is there any way to resolve this?
This issue should give you more information about the issue I am talking about here.

So I'm trying to make a programm that searches the WHOLE registry for one specific value WITHOUT declaring the location of the key. It should just search for the value and print it in a msg box but the only way I found was to declare the location and search for the key then. The code should also take the value of a text box and search for this specific value. I don't really know what I could possible do next so I'm trying to get some help from you guys. If you have snippets, articels or smth like that pls send it 2 me :)
I have a PDF form that I'm filling out with data using progress-4gl. To date, I've been only filling in text fields using the following syntax:
put stream stream1 unform
"^global CHX_SINGLE_CE_PLAN3" skip(0)
"X" skip
CHX_SINGLE_CE_PLAN3 is the field name...
This code works when dealing with text fields but I'm trying to check a box instead of fill in a text field. I cannot find any documentation on this. Is checking a box on a fillable pdf form even possible with 4gl?
As far as I remember PDF Include has support for filling fillable forms. Whilst it's probably a bit over the top in terms of what you want to achieve, it's an open source project and so you may well find the answer to your question within the code itself.
Here's a link to the project page: http://www.oehive.org/pdfinclude
I discovered the answer, which I thought I had already tried before asking this question. The answer is you need to pass the value "Yes" (with capital "Y") in order to check the checkbox. The correct code in this instance is:
put stream stream1 unform
"^global CHX_SINGLE_CE_PLAN3" skip(0)
"Yes" skip
I believe this is the case no matter which language you're using
Whenever I try to make a named range in Excel I keep getting an error. I believe my formula is correct:
=OFFSET($B$2,0,0,COUNTA($B$2:$B$200),1)
However when I press OK I keep getting the dialog screen which states Excel found a problem with my formula.
Then it highlights the following part of the formula: $B$2,0,0,COUNTA.
I looked through various tutorials where this formula should be correct.
Can someone help me out on this?
One way to see this error message is if you are using the incorrect argument separators. For example, many locale's use the semicolon ;.
Try replacing the commas in your formula with semicolons
=OFFSET($B$2;0;0;COUNTA($B$2:$B$200);1)
or whatever your locale argument separator is.
Thanks, it were indeed the seperators which caused the problem: I have to use ; instead of a , - this tricked me as all of the tutorials I watched used the comma as well.
I'm trying to increment specific elements by 1, in order to log results as they come in. I'm trying to read an element, add 1 to it, and then write it back to the same memory address. Why isn't this simple?
In code it would be something as simple as;
array1[element1] = (array1[element1]+1)
or
array1[element1]++
Arrays seem to be either read (indicators) or write (controls)? This is really frustrating, and there's very little help online.
You can use an "Array index/replace" element inside a "In place element structure":
You should use ReplaceArraySubset in the Array palette. For simple replacements, it's much faster than the In Place Element Structure
As an infrequent, novice Labview user I have the same problem ... until I found the code that I used 10 years ago. Surely the answer to sgccarey is:-
Right click on the array control or indicator and 'create local variable'
This variable will appear on the block diagram and can be set as 'Change to Write' or 'Change to Read' as necessary to use as the input and / or output array to a simple 'replace array subset'.
This way the array data only appears once on the Front Panel and is updated as required.
I have no idea if using Local Variables affects runtime efficiency but it works for me. Hope this helps.
Ok, I've combed the entire internet and can't find anything to help me here; I can't figure out the syntax for searching an array of stored words for a string matching an input string.
I understand the pseudocode of it, but I'm tripping up over what variables I need to put where, and how they should be formatted. If anyone here can help, it'd be greatly appreciated.
More than happy to provide more details should anyone request them.
Pseudocode;
Found = False
Loop through all the elements of the array
If current element = input,
Then found = True
End of loop
