I believe I may have found a bug in Google Sheets formatting or else my preferred option is I'm doing something wrong! * Brief rant - I find GridRange a PITBS!! Rant over.
I'm simply trying to format a cell and make the text bold. I send the following JSON request:
{"requests":[{"repeatCell":{"range":{"startRowIndex":1,"endRowIndex":"2","startColumnIndex":1,"endColumnIndex"
:2,"sheetId":0},"cell":{"effectiveFormat":{"textFormat":{"bold":"true"}}},"fields":"*"}},{"repeatCell"
:{"range":{"startRowIndex":7,"endRowIndex":"8","startColumnIndex":1,"endColumnIndex":7,"sheetId":0},"cell"
:{"effectiveFormat":{"textFormat":{"bold":"true"}}},"fields":"*"}}]}
And the values in the cells disappear?? I know the values are there because if I omit this styling code then nothing is altered and the values remain. What am I doing wrong? (For ref the fields here are B2:B2 and B8:G8). Any help gratefully appreciated.
I am sending this through the JS API but believe I have seen the same through the PHP too.
You are setting the fields parameter to *, which means, "I want to set every field.". Since you don't supply a value but said you want to set each field, the values are being reset to their defaults (which is empty).
If you only want to apply formatting, you need to set the fields parameter to just the format fields, e.g userEnteredFormat. See the documentation on field masks for more info.
Note also that you're attempting to set effectiveFormat, but per the reference docs that field is read-only.

Really just a curious question.
Here are a few examples of the same concern that I have since they are being exported to the FM "REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY" for parameter "it_fieldcat".
ls_fieldcat-seltext_l = 'Material number'(052).
ls_fieldcat-seltext_m = 'Material'(053).
ls_fieldcat-seltext_s = 'Mat.'(054).
I tried removing the numbers on the right and executed the program but I didn't see any differences and I also tried to see what happens inside debug mode but it only fills the field with the string value, am I missing something or is there something that I wasn't able to notice?
I've been tasked to create a copy of a program which originally joins multiple tables and filters them according to the Parameters from the SELECTION-SCREEN and then shows the results in an ALV Grid Report, but for the use case of the copy it should instead populate a table in ECC that we will then be replicating to BW side. I have successfully copied and modified it accordingly but I can't seem to understand what the numbers beside the strings are doing.
Can someone please explain what their use is, would be very grateful to see a few examples.
Thanks!
The number in the brackets is a text symbol defined as a part of the text elements of the program. Using the syntax 'Literal'(idf) replaces these literals in the program if the symbol is in the currently loaded text pool.
I am a relatively new user of Tabulator so please forgive me if I am asking anything that, perhaps, should be obvious.
I have a Tabulator report that I am able to print and create as a PDF, but the report's formatting (as shown on the screen) is not used in either output.
For printing I have used printAsHtml and printStyled=true, but this doesn't produce a printout that matches what is on the screen. I have formatted number fields (with comma separators) and these are showing correctly, but the number columns should be right-aligned but all of the columns appear as left-aligned.
I am also using Tree View where the tree rows are coloured differently to the main table, but when I print the report with a tree open it colours the whole table with the tree colours and not just the tree.
For the PDF none of the Tabulator formatting is being used. I've looked for anything similar to the printStyled option, but I can't see anything. I've also looked at the autoTable option, but I am struggling to find what to use.
I want to format the print and PDF outputs so that they look as close to the screen representation as possible.
Is there anywhere I could look that would provide examples of how to achieve the above? The Tabulator documentation is very good, but the provided examples don't appear to explain what I am trying to do.
Perhaps there are there CSS classes that I am missing or even mis-using? I have tried including .tabulator-print-table in my CSS, but I am probably not using it correctly. I also couldn't find anything equivalent for producing PDFs. Some examples would help immensely.
Thank you in advance for any advice or assistance.
Formatting is deliberately not included in these, below i will outline why:
Downloaders
Downloaded files do not contain formatted data, only the raw data, this is because a lot of the formatters create visual elements (progress bar, star formatter etc) that cannot be replicated sensibly in downloaded files.
If you want to change the format of data in the download you will need to use an accessor, the accessorDownload option is the one you want to use in this case. The accessors transform the data as it is leaving the table.
For instance we could create an accessor that prepended "Mr " to the front of every name in a column:
var mrAccessor= function(value, data, type, params, column, row){
return "Mr " + value;
}
Assign it to a columns definition:
{title:"Name", field:"name", accessorDownload:mrAccessor}
Printing
Printing also does not include the formatters, this is because when you print a Tabulator table, the whole table is actually rebuilt as a standard HTML table, which allows the printer to work out how to layout everything across multiple pages with column headers etc. The downside of this is that it is only loosely styled like a Tabulator and so formatted contents generated inside Tabulator cells will likely break when added to a normal td element.
For this reason there is also a accessorPrint option that works in the same way as the download accessor but for printing.
If you want to use the same accessor for both occasions, you can assign the function once to the accessor option and it will be applied in both instances.
Checkout the Accessor Documentation for full details.
I will provide some context before I ask my question.
I am attempting to query an SQL Server and create a table within Excel from the data. Because I am not familiar with how to accomplish this in VBA I recorded by using Data -> Get External Data -> From Other Sources -> Microsoft Query. In the dialog box that appears, I chose a .DSN file provided to me by someone else. I then used the Microsoft Query interface to structure the query and import the data onto a worksheet.
The code in the recorded macro looked something like this. I will use generic terms instead of the actual code.
With Sheet2.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:= 0, Source:=Array _
(Array("ODBC;DRIVER=SQL Server;SERVER=ServerName;UID=userid;Trusted_Connection=Yes;APP=Microsoft Windows Operating System;WSID=SomeString"), _
Array("A;DATABASE=DatabaseName")), Destination:=Range ("Sheet2!$A$1")).QueryTable
I know this is not formatted ideally, which is part of my question below.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb211863(v=office.12).aspx
From the above article, I know that SourceType:= 0 is an xlSrcExternal, or an external data source. This makes sense to me.
My confusion begins to arise when I get to the Source component of the Add method. From the provided article, "When SourceType = xlSrcExternal, an array of String values specifying a connection to the source, containing the following elements:
•0 - URL to SharePoint site
•1 - ListName
•2 - ViewGUID
So to begin with, what exactly is meant by "an array of String values", as the code from the recorded macro does not appear to correspond to what I thought was an array. I know that normally an array is declared something like this Array("string1", "string2", etc.). Or is the array recorded simply an array of one value? In other words Array("string1"). Does anyone know the purpose of passing an "array of string values" as opposed to just passing a string?
Also does anyone know the nuances of why the recorded macro has this particular formatting/syntax? In other words, why does it appear to have this syntax Array(Array("string1"),_ (new line) Array("string2"))? Why not just Array ("string1")? Does it have something to do with the second line being too long?
I have several more questions related to this topic, but this seemed like a good place to start..
Thank you all for any help given.
I have a table in which there is a column of type long.
In this column, we have stored the email responses. Now the problem which i am facing while querying business component which is on this table, is that the character ' is automatically getting converted to '
As shown in example below:
Value in column:
We've noticed some unusual usage on your phone.
Value coming while querying the Business Component:
We've noticed some unusual usage on your phone.
Although if i query in database directly, i am able to see ' correctly.
Can anyone suggest how this is happening ?
Thanks
The above link is related to Siebel.
So i will place my answer w.r.t Siebel. There is templates for communicating users in CRM.
Now if you do not mark HTML Template, then it will not convert the content of the body in UTF-8 format.
Since the HTML Type was unmarked in your case, speical character was not getting converted.
Mark it and your problem will be solved.
The template from which this field was picking up the value, we not in HTML Template format. For handling special characters like ', this property need to be marked.

I have the following selection parameter:
PARAMETERS: p_ver(2) AS LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 5.
I would like to populate it with the results from a ZECONFIG_VAR table.
At what point would I do this. Selection Screen Output, Start of Selection, or other. I am trying to allow users the ability to decide what version of the web service they would like to call. The config table will have different url's for the different versions.
I have looked at this Answer and the tutorial provided does not make sense to me.
I would do it at the event INITIALIZATION
However, it may be even easier to just create a search-help, and assign it to p_ver using the following:
parameters: p_ver(2) visible lenghth 5 MATCHCODE OBJECT zshelpname.
Esti is right that you probably want to fill an internal table from the DB table during INITIALIZATION.
But to the populate the listbox parameter, you need to put the call to VRM_SET_VALUES in AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
