Hello, I am trying to copy the value of a textbox in a grid to another textbox in the dynaform when I select a checkbox. The grid has multiple lines.

Any ideas pls as I am stuck .

Hello,
you can use the form setOnchange() to monitor the checkbox in grid. When it is being checked, if the text box in grid is not empty, then copy its value to the other text box.

2. setOnchange() to monitor the text box in grid. then check if the checkbox in grid is checked, then you can make a copy of textbox value in grid to another textbox.

Let me know if you need the coding example, then I can write next time. Cheers

Code: Select all

//==1. monitor if checkbox in a grid has checked
$("form").setOnchange( function( fieldId, newValue, oldValue ) {
   var aMatches = fieldId.match(/^\[grid_id\]\[(\d+)\]\[checkbox_id\]$/);
  
   if (aMatches) {    
     var rowNo       = aMatches[1];
 
     if (newValue == 1) {     	//1=checkbox checked
        var textboxInGridValue = $("#grid_id").getValue(rowNo, 1);	//e.g.1=column 1 of the textbox column
		if (textboxInGridValue != ""){
			$("#anotherTextboxId").setValue(textboxInGridValue);
		}
   }
});
//==replace your id's for grid_id, checkbox_id, anotherTextboxId

Note, item 2 to monitor the textbox in grid is similar that you could write following the above sample, thanks.
Let me know if you still encounter any sytax or coding problem, cheers.

Cant trace the error. Page refuses to load

[kirkwg]

Send me the .pmx file / export the process file. Let me check, maybe the sytnax errors?

Hello, the code previously has a minor syntax error, thats why it could not be loading. But as a coder like you, you should have the abilty to fix Javascript syntax error, otherwise you will encounter numerious difficulties!

I correct the syntax, verified by preview and it is now working. Take this code in below:
also see the result screenshot attached.

Code: Select all

//==monitor if checkbox in a grid has checked
$("form").setOnchange( function( fieldId, newValue, oldValue ) {
	//---------------------------------------------------------------------
   var aMatches2 = fieldId.match(/^\[grid2\]\[(\d+)\]\[cb_var01\]$/);
  
   if (aMatches2) {    
     rowNo       = aMatches2[1];	 alert("newValue = " + newValue + ", rowNo = " + rowNo);
 
     if (newValue == "1" || newValue == '"1"') {     	//1=checkbox checked
       
        var textboxInGridVal = $("#grid2").getValue(rowNo, 2);	//e.g.1=column 1 of the textbox column
        alert("newValue = " + newValue + ", textingrid = " + textboxInGridVal);
       
		if (textboxInGridVal != ""){
			$("#text_copy").setValue(textboxInGridVal);
		}
   	  }
   }  
});
//==replace your id's for grid2, cb_var01, text_copy

Good luck..

Thank you. I will take a look at it now. The grid pulls over 100 records. I have to see that the checkbox and textbox in each row is uniquely identified.

Hello, thank you for your code. I have attached the .pmx as I still have some issues.

[kirkwg]

the JS code at the end is missing });
Again simple syntax error that you need to know how to fix it, otherwise you will be in many trouble, thanks.

I added }); at the end of coding and attached here.

[holysanta]

my bad!

Thank you
