To Unlock the field by using event field trigger

Hello,

In my ad-hoc report I have one list box for month selection and one for time period selection.

I wants that on the month selection time period list box should get locked so that user cannot select it.

I have applied the trigger on month selection ->Lock field(Time period).

It is working .On month selection time period is locked.

But I wants that when user will again deselect month then that time period should automatically get unlocked.

Is there any way to resolve this issue???


Thanks in Advance !!!

I think this isn't possible - locked is locked and a listbox haven't a click-event. But you could use buttons with appropriate actions.

Actions can be "conditional" - see attached.

Micheal,

Its an interesting feature... can you explain the logic?

Sure.

The trigger is selection in the Month field.  Actions:

1. Lock Field, with expression

if(GetSelectedCount(Month)>0,'Period')

That means if at least something is selected in Month, field Period is locked.  Otherwise filed to lock is not defined, nothing happens.

2. Unlock Field

if(GetSelectedCount(Month)=0,'Period')

That means if nothing is selected in Month, field Period is unlocked.  Otherwise filed to unlock is not defined, nothing happens.

Hi Michael,

I applied the above conditions in my report,when i select on 'month' it is locking the 'time bucket type' and when i unselect the 'Month' it is not working still the 'Time bucket type' is locked .Is there any other way to unlock that field.
