I am trying to create a form where I will search for a value in a table "Request Table" search in column "ECN #". When the field is searched I would then be able to populate different areas of the table from that form and save the record. The issue I'm running into is "ECN #" is my primary key and when it is linked to the form it is not a searchable or editable field. If anyone could please help I would greatly appreciate it.
I have tried to create a query (not sure I did it correctly) and then create a form based off of that but I can't seem to get it to work.

In my React-table application, I built a form that includes multiple search fields for the table's columns. After filling in the input fields, click on the search button to search for matching records in the table. I want when adding a new column to a table, it will automatically generate a search field for that column in the search form. For example, if I add a phone column to the table, we will have a search field as shown

I am a newbie to React and have been looking for a solution but it doesn't work. I hope you can help. Thank you in advance.
Here is the executable sandbox code: https://codesandbox.io/s/dynamic-table-713ziq?file=/src/components/FilteringTable.js
I'm having a Projects lists Continuous form where the form's Record Source is based upon a table.
I have a requirement to display a field from another table which is linked back to original table using its primary key. The primary key is a AutoNumber field, but when displaying in the form I've used Input mask something like this "TMG/FEA/"0000.
So I made:
a unbound list box
and made the Row source as the query which displays the relevant information from second table
This query was created using primary key displayed in form (I mean the [Forms]![Form Name].[Field] ) as the where clause.
But the results returns blank. I'm Stuck here. I'm not sure if the query is not working due to the Input Mask or because of something else. Please help me. Thanks in advance
You should add to form field listbox, and set following values:
Data: primary key of your first table
After this, that field will duplicate ID value. Now you should transform RecordSource of this field in order to see contents from second table. So you should set:
SELECT [PrimaryForeignKeyID], [DetailedField] FROM tblSecond;. Actually I don't know the contents of your second table. Whereas PrimaryForeignKeyID is a field that links second table to first, so-called FK.
After this set following properties of list box:
ColumnCount = 2
ColumnWidth = 0;2
AllowEdits = False
Save form and open it for viewing.
In this case, your listbox will show the associated contents of second table on form.
So to my mind it is better for you to do such simple tables and forms, and you'll realize idea.
I've created a dropdown box in layout mode of filemaker and specified a field to pull in. However the box is remaining blank and not pulling in any of the information from the field in the table. What can have been missed for this to happen?
Most probably it is the problem with the value list set up or the relationship you are using to pull in the data for your drop-down.
If you are using a value list from a related data, place a portal based on the same relationship on the same layout and see if data comes through. If it does not - resolve your relationship first.
If you are pulling all values from a field in the same table, make sure in the value list setup you select the same relationship as the one the layout based on, the target field is selected and "Include all values" option is checked
I have a quick question, what is the name of the TFS 2010 database table that contains values for any custom fields.
I did a query against the TFS_Warehouse DB and the dbo.DimWorkItem table. However, I cannot find any of my custom work item fields under this table.
Can someone point me to the correct TFS 2010 table containing the custom field data? When I worked with Quality Center, the tables were pretty well defined so it was easy to do backend DB queries. TFS does not seem that intuitive.
Thanks
you have to add "reportable" to field definition.
Example - FIELD name="Scope" refname="xxx.Scope" type="String" reportable="dimension"
Wait few minutes and you'll see field in warehouse DB
look,
you need to go to your collection database, and to check a table called something like Fields.
there, you will find the new field properties and the type as well.
you can change the type to string and to be reportable.
go to the table of the WORKITEMLATEST, and check the field- you can see the name of the field like what was mentioned in the FIELDS table,.
open your work item normally, edit that field information, click save...
you can see your data updated in the WORKITEMLATEST table
BUT...
the problem is the STRING type is limited... I tried to add more text.. it keep telling me that number of character is over limit !
i want to work on a form, here i will enter the data into text fields and this will be updated into a table as a new entry. Now out of the fields available iwant few of them to be stored into another table. so its like saving form data into multiple tables. I searched in many places but cudnt find any solution.
The best solution is to use a form and a subform. Table1 is bound to form and Table2 is bound to subform.
Thanks for the solution...i dont want to go for another form though...but i figured out a way..for the 2nd table i introduced a button and on click of the event wrote a vb code such that it will look for ID field of type autonumber(introduced for the sake of searching row) and used dlookup with a criteria expression to find out the row in 2nd table n used a insert statement...this worked...thanks for the response, appreciate it...
