Need to change a grid column heading.

[Christopher]

I need to change the text of a grid column heading for an associated description field in the Grid of P1701. I can change it on the form in FDA and I have verified the Vocabulary Overrides are correct, but when I run the form on my local host the old column headings still appear...what am I missing?

Did you build and deploy a package?

 

[Christopher]

No Package Deployment. I am just testing locally on my dev computer.

The FDA works pretty different than Vocab Overrides

Stick to one of them

 

[Christopher]

Well I really don't care how I accomplish it...I changed the column heading in FDA, and the Override Text checkbox is checked and I can't uncheck it!!

 

[Adrian_Chimirel]

Well I don't care either, but it looks like you ALREADY have a Vocab Override in place and this may be the reason FDA is so fixated on the checkbox.

 

[Christopher]

Okay....so if I have a vocab override in place for that object then I can't change the check box? So its either one or the other then. I would like a little detail information on the differences between VO and using FDA to accomplish changes to data labels...I wish there was a white paper, or a PDF that would be great.

Take a look at Knowledge Article 630188.1

In our environment, we only use FDA to make vocabulary overrides.

You can use system function: Set Grid Column Heading

Hi Ray, Christopher,

Yes, it worked for me very well on XE.
In one of our large development we had a lot of custom User Defined field with many Data Types in our custom tables.

Side-Labels and Column Headings can be set up in a custom UDC by Document Type and Language Preference.

On the other side there is a trick, how to set Column Heading with two rows.

If somebody interest it, I will check, how did I do it exactly and will share it.

Regards,

Zoltán

When i want to change grid column heading i used same system function. but it is not working.

I want to change grid column heading when i run the application. but it is not working.

I tired grid column font it is also not working.

I have written event rules on grid column

 

[johndanter]

You need to move the code to Post Dialiog is Inialised

It should work fine then

 

[Nishant Sharma]

As far as I know you can not change grid column headings this way. But you can save a format on web where it give you option.

 

[Nagendra226]

In grid column events...it wont come....post dialog is intialised.

and can you tell difference about dialog is intialised and post dialog is initialised?
