Forms :: Trailing Space Automatic Trimming In Forms
Sep 20, 2012
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.

Question1. From googling , I gather that ASSM ( Automatic Segment Space Management ) is a new method used by Oracle to manage space inside data block. If this is the case, then it should have been named 'Automatic Block Space management' . Right ?
Question2.What was the most notable advantage in your opinion in using ASSM as opposed Manual Segment space management ?
I have some table spaces manual and others automatic, i just want to know what's the recommended one, to change it to the best way.
How to change Segment Space Management of a tablespace from MANUAL to AUTO? in oracle 10g R2 and also want to know the main difference between Manaul and Automatic Segment Space Management.
I want if user is working on forms application which is build in forms 6i with oracle 10g database , as soon as time reached to 5PM it automatically log off. and won't allowed to log in after 5 PM. How to do that
This works fine. All I want to do now and I don't know why (because I am quite new in Oracle development) is, to make one trigger that will choose automaticly wich video to play and if it is possible to make when I start the form automaticaly to start that video, if not, it's enough just to choose video automaticaly when I press the button.
I want to a form 10g as image under. Now i want to when item pallet_serial has new information then automatic delivery that information to block under.Example, with this form, i want to deliver information about FROM_LOC, TO_LOC, SEAL_NO, CAR_NO, PALLET_SERIAL... into under block, and after that clear field PALLET_SERIAL for next time input.
I have made an application in forms 6i. Now i want if user can update, or modify the data it will required automatic authentication. Administrator will gives his password then the updation will continue otherwise rollback the transaction.
I have one text item where i inserted some text . i want to change at run time the text space by using Font_spacing property . This thing is happen by using a push button(trigger when button pressed ). but after clicking the button this is not working.
There could be anything after the 2nd ~ in string 2 is there a easy way of trimming string2 to the first 14 Characters? Or do I have to find the 2nd instance of ~ and then remove everything after (and including) that?
I am seeing some trailing characters in the coloumn when we are inserting Blob. I am doing SQLBindParameter with SQL_C_BINARY and SQL_LONGVARBINARY as InputOutputType and ValueType respectively.Do you see any problem in this. I get this problem when I am running Oracle 11 g client on an Windows 2008 Server 64bit.When the same set of query is fired from Windows 2003 Server 32bit with Oracle 10g it works fine and no trailing character gets inserted.
I need to load a file with fields separated by '|^|' and at end of each record has '||*||'.
So in my ctl file what do i mention ? fields terminated by '|^|' ? for the record termination wat should I say? Should I still mention 'trailing null col' in my ctl file...?
Sample data file: Name|^|Age|^|city||*|| john|^|33|^|||*|| james|^||^|nyc||*|| ken|^|44|^| washington||*||
the fields are properly terminated with |^| and the records are terminated with ||*||. Is it true that a file with |^| as field terminator cannot be loaded with sqlldr?
efficient & fast method for Audit trailing tables in a Schema for any insert /update /deletes for a table. I do not want to use db triggers because of performance issues.
presently we have as system which does audit trail as below:
1. If a user changes a column value for a table ( update/insert/delete) then we call a db package and pass the parameters like table name,col name,user, operation (ins/update/delete),old value, new value,date modified,user modified etc
2. the called package will insert a record in the audit trail table with the parameters passed
3. The audit trail table is used for report generation .
Sysaux Tablespace is running low. WE SET AWR RETENTION TIME=60 DAYS. WE ARE NOT INTEREST TO EXTEND SYSAUX TABLESPACE SIZE. Usually we take AWR weekly once. Some times we did ADDM report and ASH.
CODEsql>select TABLESPACE_NAME, FILE_NAME, BYTES/(1024*1024), AUTOEXTENSIBLE, MAXBYTES/(1024*1024) from dba_data_files where tablespace_name = 'SYSAUX';
1. What's the best SOLUTION ? 2. Can i shrink sysaux tablespace ? 3. I think , The size for all occupants in sysaux tablespace is less than 200 MB => how to find actual content of sysaux tablespace ? 4. What could be the reason for growth? Is there any way to free the space from sysaux table space?
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.
