I have been asked to support an application which was developed in Forms 4.5. I have experience in Oracle database but I'm almost zero in any front end development.
As a first task I have been asked to remove a couple of field from one of the screen and then change the value of one of the field.
I have a form that i need to be able to detect when a field is has been updated. I will then do the appropriate update to the table.
I can't use the standard oracle forms data block for handling updates because my data selection is controlled by me via the when-new-block-instance.
The problem is when i select a value from an LOV and place the new data in the field. I don't know how to detect if the field is updated or not. I am currently using a loop to cycle through all the records, I have an if/else in the key_commit trigger that basically determines if there is an update or insert to be done to the table. The problem is that it seems if i select a value for one record that record goes through the INSERT procedure, (which is correct), but all the other records(not touched/changed) are going through the UPDATE procedure.
Is there a way in forms to check the status of a field? I know of system.form_status but that does not work for me.
can we change a field font size on runtime(by something like "SET_ITEM_PROPERTY built-in").(Independent of "Registry" file.)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI created a table (software defect details) and an interactive report on it. Users can go to the details form where they can manage many information: STATUS is one of them and they can change it or not.
I would like to send an email when SUBMIT botton is pressed only if field STATUS has changed. How can I detect this? I mean, I wrote a procedure in order to send an email and it works, but it runs always: I cannot set it running only when the content of STATUS_ID has changed.
how to understand if a field value has changed and, if possible what the old values was? I know how to do that by using a trigger (:old.status, :new.status) but I don't when using an APEX procedure.
I have a need to change the LOV of a page item's select list based on the selection in another page item's select list. So in other words, for a page item that is a select list, I need to use one LOV normally, and a different LOV if the value of a different page item is set to X.
A dynamic action would be useful here (on change where Select List 1 = x), but I don't know how to take the action of changing LOVsfor Select List 2 based on that action.
I need to change the grayed field item font ... ie i need to make disabled item value to be bright to achieve this what i have to do.
View 6 Replies View RelatedWe are using APEX 4.2, 10GR2, RedHat5.
I have a report that comes from SQL Query (updateable report). I'm using the apex_item.text and apex_item.hidden on fields. I'm using a button to submit and after submit process to add some logic that I need.
There could be 1 - 10 records in the report. There is only 1 field that is needed to enter a value, but the value of this field determines the value of another field. I think that I can do this with a submit button and an after submit process where I loop through all the records. I think I have this handled.
This is the question
When the value of that field is changed then the value of another field in the same row changes immediately. All the examples I've seen so far are for a single record and that doesn't work for us.
I guess this is a MRU process but I haven't seen an example where a dynamic action is possible on a Multi Row Update.
I have a field that will be providing different info based on document type. I would like to change the field label from javascript in DA.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table where i need to update one field values based on another field of the same table , simply as it is.I have done this using one select all check box , on clicking that all check boxes of item_trans table will get selected , then i will un select some of check box and then using one button, i will update the value of the fields which are checked only.
I have put the sample code but when i am updating its taking long time and hanging.I am also attaching the form based on the test case provided.
--tables with insert statement
create table item_trans (trans_item varchar2(12),trans_qty number,trans_act_qty number)
insert into item_trans(TRANS_ITEM,TRANS_QTY,TRANS_ACT_QTY) VALUES ('TREE1',40,NULL);
insert into item_trans(TRANS_ITEM,TRANS_QTY,TRANS_ACT_QTY) VALUES ('TREE2',20,NULL);
insert into item_trans(TRANS_ITEM,TRANS_QTY,TRANS_ACT_QTY) VALUES ('TREE3',20,NULL);
--i want to set the value of trans_Act_qty as trans_qty
--i create one dummy or test block to keep the select all check box. for that table test script is
CREATE TABLE TEST
(
C VARCHAR2(2000 BYTE),
B NUMBER,
A NUMBER
);
insert into test (C,B,A) values ('A',1,1);
--code written in select all check box which is created on test.block.
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('item_trans');
FIRST_RECORD;
LOOP
:M_END_YN := :M_END_ALL;
[code].......
--code written in M_END_YN ( actual check boxes where i will uncheck).
IF :M_END_YN = 'N' THEN
:M_END_ALL := 'N';
END IF;
--code written on button to update those values which are checked.
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('item_trans');
FIRST_RECORD;
LOOP
IF :M_END_YN = 'Y' THEN
[code]......
