I have created a form in Oracle Forms 6i that utilizes a tabbed interface. Each section of the form has different modules to create a quote on the end page. As far as the logic goes, I have it complete. However, I would like to choose the tab that is in focus, and I can't find a place to change this in the property panel. What am I missing? I don't want it to focus on the last tab which is the totals page, when it should focus on the first page where you enter the data.
The thing is i am generating a report in Excel through forms and excel template in 10g. After generating the Excel trough my code and Macros, i.e save excel, close excel and open excel.
After the excel report which got generated is opened the focus is not coming back to form, it keep on going busy and busy I tried
form_exit, go_block and also Timer:DECLARE timer_id Timer; one_minute NUMBER(5) := 90000; BEGIN timer_id := CREATE_TIMER('Motor_Timer', one_minute, NO_REPEAT); END; etc and etc.
When i am using exit_form, the focus is coming back but the excel is not opening again.
I have a delete button at the bottom of the form and have two blocks on top of it. I need to know which block i have the focus on or selected the record on pressing the delete button so that I go to that block and do a delete_record from that block. I came across :system.trigger_block which says it gives the name of the block where the cursor was located when the current trigger initially fired. But whenever i use it only returns the name of the block the delete button is located in. Instead i wanted to know where the focus of the cursor was or which record was selected in the above 2 blocks to go to that block and delete the record.
I want to export forms data into Excel sheetfor that i am using Client_Ole2.I have attached Webutil object library and Pl/Sql libraryStill I can not export data from Form to Excel sheet
I have u na forms developer application in 6.0 that generates a Word document. This application runs successfully on Windows XP operating system. We now have PC's new operating system Windows 7 and officce 2010. My procedure reads a specific route where a template in Word which is used to generate the document. In the user's PC application that does not generate the document even shows me an error message. But when I enter my network user with the user's PC and the document genre generates me perfectly. I checked if the user has access to the server path specifies where the template encuntra wish to open and if you have them.
I created a new form for Oracle Apps, At first when I ran the form from the application all the fields backgrounds were black, so I changed the background in the property palette to white and foreground to black.
Now it shows fine but when I close this form and open another those fields are now blacked out. What should I do, I know the problem comes from the new form.
I have task. I am using oracle forms 6i. I want to import excel data to oracle forms(its common task using ole2 package). But this time I want to map the columns i.e my database table having 5 columns. and the excel file is having 2 or 3 columns then i suppose to map those columns and accordingly insert it to my table.
So far i have import column heading of excel to oracle forms, then i've provide list item for mapping each column. so that user can map excel column to database columns. Now I am confuse how to write the code so that selected columns should get inserted into database.
-more details
I have table with columns id, name, location, address, plan. in those columns i need to insert records form excel. user having a excel with 3 columns col1, col2, col3. on the form i've fetch column headers of excel and in front of that i've provide database column list , so user can match excel column with database column. e.g.
COL1 --> list value of database column COL2 -->list value of database column COL3 -->list value of database column
Once user map those column i want to insert those values into my database table (table with columns id, name, location, address, plan). and i am confuse about this code.
i'm using db and forms 10g. i want the output of the form to be embedded within a simple html page. lets say i want the html page to be divided into three frames. the uppermost horizontal frame will hold a banner (say). the left vertical frame will hold some advertisement (say).
(1) now the rest of the page will be covered by the third frame in which the fmx's will run.
(2) i want the login.fmx (startup form) to show up first instead of the servlet. infact the servlet should not show up at all.
I am working on a simple form which will get the user to fetch required columns of employee master.
For that i have created a form which will display the column names and select option. When user clicks on query, the form will display the selected columns in a block. After going thru if required the user can download it to excel.
As of now I do not have filtering option. For this I thought of creating view based on the selection and then fetch records from the view and display it in form.
To achieve this I would like to know How I create or replace a view dynamically based on values selected. I remember doing this sort of thing long back, but could not recollect it.
Any utility that will take in a string and then search through multiple Oracle Forms and Reports modules (.fmb, .rdf, .mmb, .plx, etc). simultaneously to find which modules have strings that match the search criteria ?
To do this on an individual form is easy enough using the Oracle Forms Developer editor however I have over 100 Forms and reports.
I would like need a utility that will search all Oracle Forms in a given directory without having to actually open a Form(s) in the Oracle Forms Developer editor and then report which Forms may contained the sought after string.
I would like to Center Align application login page(Syslogin) oracle froms 11gr2. The below code is not working in forms 11g2, it's working in Forms 6i
when I try to connect my forms 6i with oracle 9i database, forms stop working and closed immediately at the meanwhile tnslsnr also stop working. This problem also persists in forms runtime.
We are using Oracle Forms 6i and back-end as Oracle 10g Database. We are facing a specific problem while working with Forms6i. I am giving the steps as showm below:
1. We have a table named TEST (a number not null, b char(1) not null). 2. When we insert a record throuhg SQL*PLUS like this: insert into test values (1, ' '). The record is inserted in the table TEST successfully. 3. We checked the length of column b i.e. select length(b) from test, it is showing 1. This is the correct value because it has inserted a space in column 'b' of the table TEST. (That's what we want). 4. We created a form having data-block from table TEST and trying to insert the same record throuhg Forms9i. 5. There it gives an error of "Unable to INSERT record" becuase in form builder, it is trimming the spaces for column 'b' automatically and making it NULL. Since the column 'b' defined as NOT NULL in table TEST, hence generating the error. (Basically there in form builder, it is generating ORA-01400 error which is can not insert NULL value in NOT NULL column).
We would like to know why in form builder, space is automatically being trimmed to NULL..? We do not want this to happen. We want space to be inserted as space only. How can i implement this case, becuase we need this kind of functionality in our form builder application.
I have a problem running forms 11g OS is windows 7 (tried on both 32bit and 64 bit same error)..Forms and Reports were both working fine, i was able to run test form, and a form that i created, and both were running properly. suddenly, while testing a new form module, it didn't work, and its showing :
Failure of server APACHE bridge: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No backend server available for connection: timed out after 10 seconds or idempotent set to OFF.
we have these oracle developer 2000 forms (in .fmx format) in a server and the data of these forms in another server.... the server with the data is very old and is very slow...so we decided to relocate the database(oracle 9i) to a new server..... also, we move the developer 2000 forms from the old server to another server which will serve as the front end to the new data server. how to make the developer 2000 forms on the new front end server to point to the new database on the new data server. how the forms find the data, where this "connection string" is for developer 2000 forms.
I have created a simple master/detail form which is in easy navigation for user. The form have master/detail block with tabular style showing 5 records, When user click on master record the detail will show the opposite as master record point.
Exporting text data from a table. Suppose I have a table of employees.
In oracle Forms. I make the two column of Hire_date1 and Hire_date2. When I put the Date Into Hire_date1 and Hire_date2 , And press push button. All the data save in text file C: emp folder.
I have several forms developed in Oracle forms builder 10g version 9.0.4.0.19. It contains Hierarchical Tree items. when i run this form on this version of oracle, it's running properly. but when i compile and run it on oracle forms 10 version 10.1.2.0.2, it shows an error message stating Assertion Failed!, if I click on the Tree item. I cant find out what and where the problem is. If I build a new form with tree item, it is working properly.
First i have entered a record in the control block.
Then i navigate to header block,entered the first record for Header Block.
Then i navigate to Detail block,entered the first record for detail Block.
then i again navigate to Header Block..
Now the Problem comes....As i am Trying to enter second record for header block,the pop up comes as "Do you want to save the changes".
Condition 1:i dont want that message to appear for every header record i enter.
Condition 2:For every header record i enter,Corresponding detail record would have been entered.i want that detail records to be retained if i am clicking that header record as i have already created relationship for both header block and detail block.
