Im using apex 22.2 And with it comes a new feature, the search page, with its search configurations attached, I am implementing this into a project and having trouble using the link function as I would like, the desired result is that after searching for something that comes up in the search configuration it grabs the primary key in this case 'project_ID' and it inputs it into the 'proyect_Id' field in my target page which takes you to the correct page instead of the generic template page with no data. I understand how to do this in any other type of link but with search configurations I can't find any items that bring up what I just searched/selected from the search If anyone knows the way to do this or a workaround that helps my case it'd be much appreciated!
Ive tried browsing the items that i can set as value, using various &PRIMARY_KEY AND &PROJECT_ID type values and setting the value into an item but none of them have worked. i also cant find much info in this
Using &PROJECT_ID. with a dot at the end as the Value in the Link dialog should work to select the selected project.
I'm working with Power BI Desktop. I have a report page with a visual component that applies the drillthrough action. When I use the drillthrough, I get into the next report page.
In the next report page, I have several visualizations. But there is a single visual component in which I don't want to use the filters that are automatically activated when using the drillthrough. The problem is that I can't turn off the filters from only that single component.
Is this problem impossible to solve, or is there any solution for that?
You can't turn off drill-through on a visual by visual basis. The only options you have are Cross-report and Keep all filters. Keep all filters allows you to specify what filters are kept, depending on you requirements this may suit your need
Hope that helps
You can create Measures that use DAX that ignore filters in order to override filters or selection context, and use those measures in your one visual in place of the usual columns.
For example, instead of Sales, create a measure UnfilteredSales, and have DAX like:
Unfiltered sales = ALL(Sales[Sales])
Or if there were some filters you wanted to apply, but not all:
total year sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales]),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT(Sales,Sales[Country]),Sales[Relative Year]=0))
I have a requirement where 300 columns had to be processed. I am trying to achieve this using IG automatic row processing (DML). When writing the code in the editor I get a error stating 'Value too long by 2015 characters'.
I suppose this is an Oracle Apex limitation. Can someone please share their views on this?
When writing the code in the editor ...
I'd say that your problem isn't related to number of columns, but a large query which can't fit into "SQL Query" item of the Page Designer.
Which Apex version do you use? I can't tell for sure (as I don't know it), but my impression is that Apex up to version 4.2 had that item limited to VARCHAR2(4000) so - if your query is larger than that, it won't fit (such as in your case - query you wrote is 2015 characters longer than the maximum size the item allows). In 5.x version, you can put a whole lot of query into the item (as if it was modified to a CLOB).
Now, as you use Interactive Grid and it appeared in 5.x version, huh ... maybe what I wrote above isn't entirely true. Unfortunately, you can't switch to a query whose source is a function that returns query (such as in Classic Reports), as you could write a (stored) function and simply call it from Apex.
As you said that you used automatic row processing, did you put too much code somewhere in there?
On the other hand, I Googled a little bit, looking for limit of column numbers in the IG - couldn't find anything official, but someone complained (here, on StackOveflow) that they tried to create an IG with over 100 columns, and it didn't work.
So, yes - maybe you hit the limit, but I can't confirm it. Hopefully, someone who knows Apex better will be able to assist. Alternatively, consider asking the same question on OTN forums, as people who designed Apex answer questions there.
(SharePoint 2010, Visual Studio, C#)
I have a large SharePoint Document Library called LargeLib (and am concerned about performance).
I have about 100 IDs and I have to extract respective items (with just 3 columns ID, Name, Author).
The CAML Query seems to be very large, as there is no "IS IN" clause possible in CAML. I have to repeat CAML lines of code a hundred times. WIll this be a good option? I wish I could pass it an array of IDs.
Do we have any other performance friendly option?
Thanks a lot in advance as I am stuck on this one.
This SO question seems to be the same as what you're asking. He solved it by building a function for nesting OR nodes...
One of the answers discusses using the <IN> node for SharePoint 2010, so I guess you're in luck:

I am trying to remove all references to a table from a Crystal XI report. Crystal is telling me that a column from that table is currently being used, because there is a little green check mark over the field in the field viewer. Also, if I try to remove the entire table, I get a warning. The warning is almost useless though because it doesn't tell me where the field is used. Now, back when programmers were real programmers, and mice were things cats chased, I could just grep a directory or file and find all references to a variable I was interested in. But how do I do this in Crystal? I have already tried exporting the report to a Report Definition, which helped find some instances of the troublesome field. Unfortunately, that format does not include all formulas, just some. Please tell me I don't have to buy a third party app (or write my own COM thingy) just to do this seemingly simple thing.
EDIT to add details about tangential point:
In case anyone is wondering, I am not crazy - I have duplicated the issue where a formula's definition does not show up in the exported Report Definition. I created a new blank report, created one formula named stealth that returns 1234. I then used that formula in the Section Expert for the details section, in the "suppress" formula, setting it to {#stealth} == 0. the use of the formula shows up, but not the definition. So when my unwanted column was used in the formula, I was not be able to find it! Here's what the rpt def looks like (after deleting some blank lines):

If all else fails ...
File -> Export -> Export Report, then choose the Report Definition (TXT) option.
That will give you a plain-text representation of every element of the report. You can grep or CTRL-F or (insert search tool of your choice) through that. "Find in Formulas" usually works, but I've had to go the export route a couple of times, for no apparent reason.
Edit: Of course, if I'd bothered to completely read your post, I'd see that you've already done this.
Very curious.
If you right click on the field in Field Explorer and select Find in Formulas, it should bring up a dialog listing all of the places it is being used in formulas. On the left hand side of the dialog is a tree of all the possible places it could be, including oddball places like record selector and page formatting functions. Unfortunately, it does not seem to list running total fields.
EDIT: Oops, all the places it exists is listed at the bottom of the dialog; the tree view is the entire "DOM" of the report.
I know this is an old post, but...
Not knocking the Find in Formulas, it's been saving me today, but i was having trouble finding the last instance of the field. Even after all of the formulas and the droppings on the report were taken care of, I still had one lone use hiding somewhere.
I found it hiding as a Subreport Link. Right click on the Subreport -> "Change Subreport Links..." and there was the culprit. Dropping in this post because I figured someone else might have this problem too.
Fields can also sometimes be hiding within "Record Sort Expert"
Responding to an old post, but ran into a similar issue. I had a group based on the formula I wanted to delete that had a specified order. When I changed the grouping to a different field, the specified order remained. When I removed the specified order, my formula could be deleted.
This was tested on XIr2...
You change the tables datasource through the "set datasource location" dialog. Now, when it goes into the column mapping mode, uncheck match-type and pick a new column that would cause an error in a formula. (i.e if the column you're looking for is a string replace it with a datetime column). Go to the preview and you should get an error box like "A string is required here.", close that error and up pops the offending formula!
One more suggestion. After following a lot of the suggestions here, my report was still telling me the formula was in use. I had to close the report. When I opened it again, the check mark was gone and it let me delete it. This was on Crystal v 11.0.0.1282
In my case the Formula Field happened to be part of an old Running Total Field, which itself was not included in the report. Once I deleted this old Running Total Field I could delete the unused Formula Field.
Very late, but i use CR 2008 (12.3.0.601) and just today (6/16/2015) i am trying to document only the formulae of my report. I knew about exporting the Report Definition, and Finding a Formula in all Formulae. But there are about 50 Formulae. I discovered that the exported Report Definition didn't document all of my Formulae, but I didn't bother to uncover the logic behind that; instead, i plopped all Formulae into a section, then exported the Report Definition. Voila. Of course, i still need to cull all the unnecessary definition elements. But at least i have all Formulae.
So with all the great selections.. I still had one instance hiding from me. I found out where it was by creating a clone of the data table and renaming\deleting the field.
I then used the "Set Database Location" as suggested above to point to my new table. It did error out when it could not find that field but still didn't tell me where it really was (it just said report field).
I did NOT map it and clicked continue which deleted the field from the report. I then mapped it back to the real table and I was good.
In my case, there was a Chart, and the field was being used as one of the "on Change" fields.
Although an old post, this functional gap still exists within Crystal Reports itself. We have a fully functional 14 day trial of our third party software that uses the latest Crystal.net API to search for plain text within a library of Crystal RPT files in one fell swoop. Also searches the data saved within reports, and text within labels ... as well as datasource behind all your reports ( stored procedures, views, and table data ) with support for SQL Server, SQL Azure, MySQL, Oracle, Amazon RDS, DB2 and Access.

Note, you will need to download and install the compatible SAP Crystal.net runtime connector for searching your RPT file library.
