Hi,

To remove Empty row you need to change the property od the context node that you have associated with the dropw down.

1. Change Cardinality to 1..n (If you change it 1:1 then you will not be able to add more than one option to drop down).

2. Change the Selection to 1..n

And to add some text to drop down before the values from RFC you can use the below code in wdInit() method.

wdContext.nodeVn_Node().currentVn_NodeElement().setVa_Attribute("-Please Select-");

use the node name as you have given in the context you have created.

Hi,

In order to remove the Empty space in DropdownByIndex change the cardinality as 1..n and selection as 1..1

Then that empty space is removed

Hi,

I want to set a particular value from the set of values retrived from the rfc as the default value that is my dropdwn has the values(100,200,300,400,500) and i want to set the value 400 as default. so how do i do it.

and this 400 value is got from some other rfc.so do not suggest mi to set this value in wedint.

Hi Abhilasha,

If you want to set the default value to the dropdown box. Do like this:

After calling the particular RFC,

if(wdContext.node<DDnodename>().size()>index)
wdContext.node<DDnodename>().setLeadSelection(index);
 // if you want to set ith  value as default then +index = i-1+ because elements start from 0. 

In your case,

(100,200,300,400,500) and if you want to set the value 400 as default then

if(wdContext.node<DDnodename>().size()>3)
wdContext.node<DDnodename>().setLeadSelection(3);

Hi,

If you want any default selected value for the dropdown u can implement this code in wdDoInit()

wdContext.Anode.currentAElement.setB(the value you want to set);

The empty entry is automatically added by the framework if you allow an empty selection (selection cardinality 0:1). If empty selection should not be allowed, set it to 1:1.
