We have a table with an nvarchar column that we use to store product descriptions.
This field is maintained on a web form created with the htp package.
Whenever a special character is used (ie, the copyright symbol, trademark, etc), the value is stored correctly in the DB. I've verified this because if i query the value in sql developer, i do see the correct symbol.
However, pulling this piece of data out to display in a formtext box (for edit) replaces all the special characters with ?'s.
Our National Character Set value is set to UTF-8.

I have error message when running duplicate : FRM-21011: PL/SQL unhandled exception ORA-06502..I'm trying to hold 4000 characters in a variable like what do below:
if s_str is NULL then s_str := eachcol.column_name||'{{'|| name_in(name_in('system.cursor_block')||'.'||eachcol.column_name)||'{{'; else s_str := s_str||eachcol.column_name||'{{'|| name_in(name_in('system.cursor_block')||'.'||eachcol.column_name)||'{{'; end if;
It's simple variable to hold value but still can't get by large string though.

In current form, i use *pll file to pass Global.<variable name> to the form *.fmb
The problem is that if i copy a string of 4000 characters (which i need to) to Global.<variable name>, it will automatically cut a whole chunk to shorter string (less than 1000).
Is there a better way to that Global.<variable name> can hold 4000 characters?
qry:= 'to_date(debtodt, 'dd-mon-yy')< sysdate'; or qry:= 'debtodt < to_char(sysdate, 'dd-mm-yyyy'); or qry:= 'to_date(debtodt, 'dd-mon-yy')< to_date(sysdate, 'dd-mm-yy')'
all these are showing error in oracle form.
in database debtodt is in char format , calculating from-- TO_CHAR(add_months(b.FRMDT,b.period)-1,'dd-mm-yyyy')
and also in oracle form it is char,thats why i am changing it either debtodt into date format or sysdate into char format. but it is showing error as: encountered the symbol "DD" when expecting one of these.................
the same query
select * from debar_reg_vu where to_date(debtodt, 'dd-mm-yyyy')<sysdate;
I have a ssn field where the user enter value to search for the ssn. I want to format the field so the user can enter in the xxx-xx-xxxx format only. If the user enters a wrong format and tries to search i should prompt a message saying wrong format. How can i achieve this.
I have written the following assignment statement. :dshift_hdr.startdate := to_date(sysdate,'DD-MM-RR HH12:MI:SS');
the startdate is a display item. Its data type property has been set to datetime and the formatmask is DD-MM-RRRR HH12:MI:SS but the result of above assignment statement is 31-03-2011 12:00:00 i.e. it does not take the actual current time.
i have promised to install the application to the client tommorrow.
In 10G forms the date format mask in all the items in forms are removed.
As the nls_date_format in database is (dd-mon-rr) the same is expected to come in Oracle 10G forms. Now it is coming as (DD-MON-YYYY) in 10G forms. I tried looking into the nls_session_date format in runtime in forms it is showing as (dd-mon-rr) but in item it displays as(DD-MON-YYYY). How will i display the date format set in the DB or were is the setting done in Oracle 10G forms.

I have one NUMBER field with size 15. I have set format mask 999,999,999,999,999 on this field. This is formatting the data I am entering in that field. But the problem is if I enter a value in that field and moves to another field. And if I want to edit the previous field again I have to keep the cursor at the left end of the value.
For example I enter 3,000 in the field. If I want to edit the field again, I have to edit it from left like 1,233,000. I cannot edit it at the end(like 3,000,123).
Even I can click anywhere in that field where I have the format mask. check the screen shot in the attachment. In the red square, you can find a value with space in between.

Im trying to display a word file from a blob column of table in reports 11g . In reports 6i OLE2 file format was available for that, but in 11g it became obsolete.
I have been developing and oracle application therefore i have installed the oracle express edition 10g database software and the oracle developer 10g. I did some changes in sql*plus i mean i have changed the language(through 'nls_lang' to Arabic), i made a autonumber trigger, i changed the calender format (through 'alter_session...'), now all the changes are working fine from the oracle sql*plus but as i am running my form from form builder none of those changes are working.
i thought the oracle form and sql*plus don't have such link..i can add the tables i have created in sql*plus into the form.
