Group repeating attributes in control

Hi all!

Can anyone give an idea how to put 2 (and more repeating together) on jsp like it looks in Forms.

Example:

	Name attr 1	Name attr 2
o
o

Delete selected row

Add row

First row - check box to delete selected row.

Button "Add row" - add row.

My wdk experience tells me to implement control. Any examples are welcomed.

Extending or creating a control is a bit difficult task. More over you cannot re use the control for different set of attributes. We encountered similar situation and we used normal datagrid and wdk controls.

In the behavior class, we updated the records as required.

Let me know if you want the complete details or send me a private message so that I can send you our implementation logic with code.

I''l be very pleased to introduce the details.

Are you looking for a solution like this::

we implemented this using normal wdk controls. In our behavior class, we overrided oncommitchanges and saved the repeating attributes.

Here we have 6 set of repeating attributes instead of 2..

What is the way change values in rows for user?

Does he choose row and then the attribute values of selected row are in fields (control Share Cert No, Shareholder Name and so on) shown?

dnvhariprasad

yes. just like normal dbms application. If he chooses the row and clicks on EDIT, values will be displayed in controls where in he can update the values..

Crucial logic here is, we need to implement some flags in the grid (hidden by defalt) so that we will edit the values in the dctm instead of creating as new records.

alternate way is to delete the entire repeating attributes and adding them again. If we follow this approach, we will defeat the audit trail logic.
