I'm having some trouble while trying to create a "Search" function in a ClistCtrl.
When the searched item is found I know for sure it is marked as the correct data is displayed, yet the list itself doesn't show the item. I want the list to move its focus on the new item that was searched and show it but for some reason can't find the way to do so.
I'll just add that the "Always Show Selection" option is turned on in the Dialog options.
Appreciate any help I could get!
Update,
I've found the function that solves the issue - EnsureVisible. Make sure that the second argument you insert, bPartialOK, will false in order to get full visibility of the the list item.

I checked SuiteAnswers and here on Stack overflow but don't see an answer. Is there a way to make a Multi-select field in NetSuite as an option for an available filter in a Saved Search. I tried to do this by creating a test MS field on an Employee and creating a saved search. However, when adding it as an available filter it grays out the ability to show in the filter region, which, by all practical purposes, makes it not usable as an available filter.
Has anyone found a way to do this? Or do I have to have multiple searches for variations on the values we want in the multi-select, which is not ideal?
This is very frustrating NetSuite behaviour however I have found a workaround that works some of the time.
Create a saved search
Go to the "Available Filters" subtab
Add the Select/List type field(s) you require
Tick "Show In Filter Region."
At this point the "Show as multi-select" checkbox will be greyed out (disabled.)
Save and run the search.
Click "Edit This Search"
Navigate back to the "Available Filters" subtab and the "Show As
Multi-select" checkbox should now be enabled, tick it.
Save and run your search again.
Edit:
Playing around further, it seems that you can't assign a new array to a listbox via the .list=somelist approach when the assignment happens in response to a click on the listbox itself. Or rather, you can assign the list, but it simply won't visually populate the listbox...although Excel seems to think it's there.
The .additem or .removeitem methods do however result in a visual change when called from a listbox click, which means you have to build your new array up that way I guess. How tedious.
You can however feed a listbox an entirely new array using the .list=somelist approach via a CommandButton-initiated action. But the user has to obviously click a button to do this. Which in my case below defeats the purpose.
Edit Over.
I'm designing a UserForm to help filter PivotTables. It's a cross between the existing Pivot Filter functionality and a Slicer. Here's what you see if you double-click on a PivotField header:
Note the Search field at the top, and the three buttons immediately below that search field. If you type something into that field, then instead of displaying everything that's currently filtered, you instead get a list of any matches, and you can then apply those search results to the underlying PivotTable via those three CommandButtons. The first cb simply filters the PivotTable to reflect the search, and the other two let you add or remove any search result from an existing filter.
I want to do away with those three command buttons, and instead (in the event that a search is performed) simply list those three options at the top of the ListBox above any search results returned. Clicking on those three options will then trigger the exact same code as currently triggered by the Command Button.
Here's how that looks currently if I actually type something in that Search box (Note I haven't yet removed the three command buttons this does away with from that Search frame):
I've added a simple bit of code to the lbResults_Change() event handler that checks if a user clicks any of those first three options. All that code does is trigger the exact same routines as would be triggered if they'd simply clicked on the actual command buttons themselves:
For i = 0 To 4
If Me.lbResults.Selected(i) Then Exit For
Next i
Select Case i
Case 0: cmdApplySearch_Click
Case 1: cmdAddToFilter_Click
Case 2: cmdSubtractFromFilter_Click
Case 3: Me.lbResults.Selected(3) = False
End Select
Here' the problem: The listbox gets updated just fine if I click on those command buttons, as you can see from the below. The Pivot has been filtered accordingly, and those contextual search options have been removed from the top of the listbox (and the search field cleared):
But the listbox does NOT get updated if the exact same routine is triggered from a click on one of those top three options in listbox itself:
As you can see from the above screenshot, it still shows those three options at the top, even though they are NOT in the array that I assigned to the listbox, as evidenced by the screenshot below:
But as you could see from the earlier screenshot, it shows 7 items in the ListBox instead of the three there actually are. But there are indeed just three items that should be showing in that list box:
? .ListCount
3
? .List(0)
263213: ICT Systems Test Engineer
? .List(1)
263299: ICT Support and Test Engineers nec
? .List(2)
839313: Product Tester
Basically, as soon as I try to update what's in the listbox via a click on the listbox itself, I can't update it.
It doesn't seem to matter if I set focus to something other than the listbox before the filtering code executes, and I've even tried completely clearing the Listbox with .clear. It just doesn't clear, until I manually click on one of those command buttons again.
Anyone have any pointers?
Ah, what an idiot I am for overlooking the painfully obvious solution. The ListBox list happily redraws in response to any event other than the ListBox_Click event, right? So all I needed to do was to use the ListBox_Click event to determine what got clicked (as I currently do), and then use the ListBox_MouseUp event to trigger the actual updating of the ListBox list. Works a treat.
Hopefully this post will save someone else two days of pain in the future. Probably me.
In the list, I set-up "ID" column and "Title" column.
I added 10 items in the list, and I'm trying to put the 10th item between 1 and 2.
After my research, many people said I can't manually change ID number...
Is there a way to re-order the item?
deleting every items is the only answer?
Please help!
The ID column is an internal identity-like column. You cannot change the value. If you need a column that you can order by (and change), just create a new column called SortOrder or something. Then sort by that column.
I know this is an old post, but I thought this might help someone who might be looking for an OOB answer.
Go into your links list so that you see your List Tools, Items and List at the top.
Select Items.
There is a Change Item Order Icon in the Ribbon. This will allow you to renumber the Links in your list and change the order.
You can manually change the items order if you create your list based on a link list definition. This kind of list allows you to re-order items as you require through a ribbon button. I use this workaround often.
The ID Column is SharePoint inbuilt and you can not change the value of it.
for your solution either you need to delete all item and insert it again or as #Nigel Whatling say you have to add SortColumn
Column Setting will only change the order in the SharePoint List. To change the view order Use the Modify View Selector to adjust the way the fields are sorted. Modify View is found on the ... next to Find and Item Box or If your in the site setting it is under View on the lower 3rd of the page
I also got stuck with this and couldn't use the previous answers as I couldn't see the buttons they spoke of in the ribbon.
I went to List > List Settings in the ribbon. At the bottom of the list settings page I click on a View to edit it (or create new view). Unser the heading Sort you can change the column you wish to sort by and change from descending to ascending etc.
Actually, if I understand the question, it was just what I was trying to accomplish and spent most of my morning working on.
Select the List.
From toolbar, select List under List Tools.
Click List Settings.
Below the listed columns, see Column Ordering
Modify "Position from Top" number and click OK at bottom.
Updated steps:
Select the List.
From toolbar, select List under List Tools.
Click List Settings.
Above the Column list click on the "Item" link
At the bottom of the page select "Column Ordering"
Modify "Position from Top" number and click OK at bottom.
Quick version:
Is there a way to filter a view in the Sharepoint Issue Tracking module to find rows that do not have a value in a given column?
Detailed version:
At my workplace, we're using the Sharepoint Issue Tracking module to maintain our bug list. I want to create a view on the list to find the Issues that haven't been assigned to anyone yet.
So I:
1. "Edit View"
2. in the "Filter" section, "Show the items when column", I select "Assigned To" from the columns drop-down list.
3. Then the problem. My best choice in the operator dropdown seems to be "is equal to". But then I don't know what to put in the value box. I tried leaving it empty, but that didn't work. It would be nice if there was an "is empty" choice in the operator dropdown, but there isn't.
Any constructive suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
This worked fine for me
Filter - Assinged To Is Equal To (leave value box empty)
(In the screenshot I also have Current is equal to Yes to show only Current Unassigned issues)
If you've got more than one term in the filters are you using AND or OR?
Why didn't it work (did it show everything including unassigned, or nothing)
Can you post a screenshot of your view definition?
I have got a CDialog Class, inside which there are two ClistCtrl classes.
I want to find out which of the listCtrl's is selected at the moment.
say, listCtrl A and B. Even when I move between A and B, suppose first I go to A and select a row. Then even when I go to B and select an item there, item in A remains selected as I don't come to know that I have gone in other list.
Any suggestions, how I can find this.
If understand you correctly, you need to know which one of list boxes has a focus. You could do that by calling GetFocus(), it returns a pointer to the focused control.
The problem you might have though is when your dialog is not an active window and then focus would be somewhere else. In this case you should be tracking WM_SETFOCUS and WM_KILLFOCUS messages and keeping record of which of the list boxes was activated last. In MFC there are callbacks CWnd::OnSetFocus and CWnd::OnKillFocus that could be used to achieve that.
I found a way of doing this. I can register for NM_Click notifications on both the lists
When list A is selected, I set curSel of list B to -1 and vice versa.
