DropDown as one column in table

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a DropDown with 2 values(Approved and Rejected) as one column in table.

For each row I can select value in the dropdown (either approved or Rejected)

The problem I'm facing is that when I select "Approved" in one row all the dropdowns in that column take up the value "Approved". and same happens when I select the value "Rejected".

Context: My table is bound to a node "RequestforApproval".

dropdown is bound to value attribute "RequestforApproval.status"

Please suggest how I can overcome this problem.

Thanks

Hi,

If my understanding is correct

Your context structure is as follows

RequestforApproval

Status

How many elements do you have for the node RequestforApproval?

If this is one; you have to create one per row.

Hi AyyapaRaj,

I have a total of 9 Value attributes(elements) in the Node RequestforApproval(all 8 are read-only text fields). one of the elements is status.

my dropdown in the table is bound to "status".

Thanks

Armin,

RequestforApproval is one node and it has 9 elements of which one is "status".(status is the value attribute for the drop down in the table).

There is no other node within the Requestforapproval node.

RequestforApproval - Cardinality -0..n, Singleton

Thanks

I don't understand. My question was: is the context node "RequestforApproval" on root-level or contained inside another node? If it is contained, is it a singleton or non-singleton child node.

And what does that mean: "it has 9 elements of which one is "status""? Does the node has 9 attributes or does it contain at runtime 9 node elements?

Armin,

Requestforapproval is at root level. it is not contained within a node.

Requestforapproval has 9 attributes- Not at runtime.

Hi,

At runtime how many elements?

Ok. And the context attribute "Status" is contained inside that node?

Armin

none at runtime.

Armin.

Yes. status is inside the root node RequestforApproval.

That's strange.

The following should work:

Context:

RequestforApproval (node, cardinality 0:n)
-- status (attribute, type = "Status")

where "Status" is a local dictionary type with the two enumeration values.

Data binding:

TableColumn1.TableCellEditor = DropDownByKey1
DropDownByKey1.selectedKey = RequestforApproval/@status

Please give more information. Is the context node "RequestforApproval" on root-level or a child of another node. If it is a child of another node, is it a non-singleton child?
