hiCreateReportField: How would I pass a value stored in a variable to choices? list

BasavarajH

Hi there,

When I am trying to use the variables like;

a="drawing"

b="100"

form~>handle~>choices=list(list(a b))   >>doesnt work

form~>handle~>choices=list(list("drawing"  "100"))   >>this works

in the choices columns the same values are not reflected on the reportField form.

Please help with me with this as I have a requirement to display many rows on the ReportField where all the rows content is stored in different variables post some processing code.

Thanks.

  • This works for me, both when specifying ?choices and also using the approach you are using above. I suggest you give a complete code example that doesn't work as then it might be possible to see what you're doing wrong.

  • new=hiCreateReportField(

    ?name 'newReport
    ?title "New Report Field"
    ?selectMode 'multiple
    ?headers list(
               list("Column1" 50 'left)
               list("Column2" 200 'left)
               )

    ?callback 'reportCB
    )

    newQuerryForm =  hiCreateForm('newQuerryForm "QuerrySel" nil list( list(,new 0:0 655:200 1)))

    hiDisplayForm(newQuerryForm)

    newQuerryForm~>newReport~>choices=list(list("Hello" "Hi"))            > This works fine

    num=100
    newQuerryForm~>newReport~>choices=list(list(num "Hi"))                 > Now column1 remains empty(nothing displayed)

     

     

  • This is because you didn't provide a list of list of strings. The first entry in the sublist was an integer, not a string.

    If you do:

    newQuerryForm~>newReport~>choices=list(list(sprintf(nil "%d" num) "Hi"))

    then it works fine.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
