So, The case is.
I filtered the records in list view by applying some filters.
So, I need any mechanism to save this listview data to load after some time by clicking on any button or something.
Thank you in advance.
If you need to freeze the records as they are at the moment of the request, you'll have to save them in another model. Something like a report with the report lines containing the needed information. Otherwise, deleted records will vanish, modified records will, well - get modified.
If you'd like to get no more results, but still display the changes/deletions of the existing ones, you can either filter them by some relevant date interval for example, or again use the above mentioned approach, but keep relation fields to the actual records containing the up-to-date data.

I am creating a data-merge document in InDesign.
There are various tables that I've created which only show as many rows as there is actual data in the field, through some creative table and cell styles.
Now I've been asked to only have an entirely separate table only show if there is information in any of those fields.
I'm at a total loss. With the way the current structure is set up, I can cause it to not display any text, but it still shows empty header cells and one line of empty row cells.
Pre-DataMerge, with the data fields
Post-Datamerge, with the resulting empty cells
Any creative ideas to hide that table? I was thinking there might be a way to hide the entire text field, if not the table. Maybe a script? I tried one that deletes blank tables, but that didn't seem to work after the data-merge was run.
I am not sure you can get that level of processing with InDesign datamerge. You could think of a script to post remove those tables or use a dedicated plugin such as Easycatalog that can take care of such empty items natively.
In my SSRS report I am attempting to incorporate entitlements. If a user puts a specific person ID in the parameter, I'd like to be able to compare it against the up to 50,000 ids they are entitled to use and to put up an error message if not.
The available values feature only allows me to use a dropdown, which is incovenient for so many ids. What are my options?
A drop down would be very inconvenient for that many choices. Is it possible to break them down by a category or something like that? You could then create cascading parameters to make the list easier to deal with.
Otherwise it would have to be a free text field. Depending on the complexity of the report contents you could handle it a couple of ways.
If it is a very simple report with just a tablix you can set the no data row value to your error message.
If it is more complex you can display the error message using two rectangles. The first one would simply contain a text box with the error message in it. Then put the actual report comments in the second box. Control the visibility of these rectangles based on an expression that checks the number of rows returned by the dataset or some other indication that the input was invalid. You may even need to create a second dataset to check for input validity if there isn't a reliable way to use your normal query.
In several notes applications, instead of handling related data as separate documents, if the size of the data is small (less than the 32k limit), I'll make several multi valued fields and display it in what I call a "List Panel". It's a table where each column displays one multi-value field. Since fielda(1) goes with fieldb(1) that goes with fieldc(1) there is a concept of rows. (I did a similar thing in my auditing routine discussed here )
It is always assumed that each field has exactly the same number of elements.
All the multi-value fields are then stored on the single document. This avoids several coding conventions that made my eyes bleed like having date changed, who changed it, new value fields for each field we wanted to audit. Another thing that this kept to a minimum was having to provide multiple fields for the same thing that locked you into a limit. Taxrate1, Taxrate2, Taxrate3, etc...
In my "Listpanel" the first column is a vertical checkbox. (One for each element in my lists) This is so I can select one item to bring up and edit, or select multiple values to delete "rows" or apply some kind of mass change to them.
What would be the best way to handle this under xPages to get this functionality? I tried making a table but am having the devil of a time to get the checkboxes to line up with their corresponding data items.
Views and dojo-grids seem to assume we're using a document for each row.....
This TableWalker may provide what you want http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/ddwiki.nsf/dx/Tutorial-Introduction-to-XPages-Exercise-23
It was created when XPages was all very new, so it's SSJS rather than Java. But if you're comfortable wiith Java, converting it probably won't be a challenge.
You could use a repeat control to display the values and build a table using the table row tags in the repeat. You would want to calculate the id of the checkbox to be able to take an action on that selected row. The repeat var would be just one of your multi-value fields and you use the index of the repeat to get the value for that row from the other multi-value fields.
I am working with a large data set and have created two views that work with this data set. The first (lets call this one View1) looks at the data and pulls certain values, the next view (lets call this one View2) looks at View1 and pulls certain values from that. The way I have it set up right now, if I inserted a WHILE statement into view 1 to restrict the days that are pulled from the large data set, this carries over to View2 as well (since View2 SELECTS FROM View1).
What I want to do is to create a package that will turn the start and end dates into variables so that I can do what the views are doing with dates I pass in instead of hard coding in the start and end dates each time.
I do not have a lot of experience with packages and have tried making one from some documentation I have found online, but to no avail.
Any help is appreciated, thank you!
tldr: Can not update records from query because of aggregate functions. What workarounds do you suggest?
I have a table containing decision criteria to which a user can assign a relative weight. I calculate the absolute weight in an SQL query using an aggregate function (as described here Divide the value of each row by the SUM of this column).
qryDecisionCriteria
name relative_weight absolute_weight (calculated)
price 2 50 %
quality 1 25 %
experience 1 25 %
I would like to present the query result in a form, where the user can update the relative weights, and then sees the absolute_weights.
However, the query results are not updatable, because the query involves an aggregate function.
What alternative methods or workarounds could I use, so that a user can edit relative_weights and view absolute_weights as a kind of visual feedback?
I read about temporary tables here http://www.fmsinc.com/MicrosoftAccess/query/non-updateable/index.html but I'm not sure, how to implement this.
Maybe I could also create an additional "edit form" based on a simple query, that is automatically invoked when the user selects a record in qryDecisionCriteria data?
Or maybe just display data from two queries (one updatable, one with the calculated field) next to each other in the form?
Which options would you recommend and why?
Make the Record Source for the form the updatable base query. In the text box which shows the calculated absolute weight set the control source to
=DSum("relative_weight","<base table name>")/Forms!<Form Name>!relative_weight
You'll need to be sure that you do two things with this
When you drag fields onto a form in Access it makes the name of the control the same as the control source column. this is really annoying and can cause a lot of headaches. Rename your control to something like txtColumnName. That way Forms!<Form Name>!relative_weight is guaranteed to reference the field and not the textbox.
in the AfterChange event for the relative_weight textbox you should add an event handler in which the following code is run
txtabsolute_weight.Requery
This will make sure the formula is recalculated whenever someone changes a weight. Otherwise they need to hit F5.
