|
|
Hi David,
I am not able to select a value from combo box in oracle forms.
The combo box contains following values.
ChargeBack
CreditMemo
DebitMemo
Deposit
Guarantee
Invoice
From this list, I want to select the value 'Invoice'. If I enter In / I / Invoice into the dataload cell, Invoice value from the combo box does not get selected in the Oracle forms.
David, can you please suggest me some solution in this case?
Thanx & Regards,

Once you've navigated to the field (TAB after previous field etc) with the drop-down list, you can do this two ways:
1. Figure out how many times you need to press one of the arrow keys from the default value that shows up - e.g. if the first value is Chargeback and you need to pick Invoice, you need to press the down arrow key 5 times). Enter the down arrow key in the dataloader cell as \{DOWN}. In this case, you need to press the down arrow key 5 times, so you would enter something like
\{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}
2. In this case, you may be able to simply use one keystroke to pick Invoice, since there are no other list values beginning with the same character (I). So, you can try using something like this
\{i}
One of these should work for you
Cheers

A couple of points:-
\{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}
can be written as {DOWN 5}
After selecting a value (using \I for example) you need to TAB out of the field (even if Autotab is on).
Hope This Helps
