How to use BULK COLLECT in oracle forms

hi gurus,
I am using oracle forms
Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - ProductionI wanna use bulk collect from database table lets say <employees>
while working on database level with collections and records it's working very well for me, but when I try to use that technique on oracle forms it hits me error
error 591 this feature is not supported in client side programmingI know I can use cursors to loop through the records of oracle tables ,
but I'm convenient while using collections and arrays
for example
Set Serveroutput On
Declare
      Type Rec_T Is Record (
       Empid Number ,
       Empname Varchar2(100)
      Type V_R Is Table Of Rec_T Index By Binary_Integer;
      V_Array V_R;
Begin
   Select Employee_Id , First_Name
   Bulk Collect
   Into V_Array
      From Employees;
   For Indx In V_Array.First..V_Array.Last Loop
   Dbms_Output.Put_Line('employees id '||V_Array(Indx).Empid ||'and the name is '||V_Array(Indx).Empname);
   End Loop;
     End;I wanna use this same way on oracle forms , for certain purposes , please guide me how can I use ...
thanks...

For information, you can use and populate a collection within the Forms application without using the BULK COLLECT
Francoisactually I want to work with arrays , index tables ,
like
         record_type (variable , variable2);
         type type_name <record_type> index by binary_integer
        type_variable type_name;
        and in main body of program
        select something
        bulk collect into type_variable
        from any_table;
       loop
            type_variable(indx).variable , type_variable(indx).variable2;
       end loop;
       this is very useful for my logic on which I am working
          like
          type_variable(indx).variable || type_variable(indx-1);
         if it's possible with cursors then how can I use cursor that can fullfill my this logic@Francois
if it's possible then how can i populate without using bulk collect?
thanks
and for others replies: if I can use stored procedures please give me any example..
thanks

You can try creating a wrapper database procedure for this and call the procedure
from forms. It should work

How to use a function PIPELINED in Forms 10g?

Hi guys,
When I tried to use a function PIPELINED in Forms, I received the message:

Can anyone help me?

You can't. One option would be to wrap your pipelined function in a view, or you could write a stored procedure which returns a strong ref cursor instead.

How to use Java Script in Oracle Forms 10g

Hello,
Appreciate if anyone could help me using Java Script in Oracle Forms 10g?
Thanks
GM

Thank you for your reply. I was reading on the metalink that we could use the to call the java script from oracle Forms 10g (Doc ID 265863.1)
Example:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('javascript:void(window.open("http://www.oracle.com","","location=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,status=no,"));self.close()','_blank');
I tried it but it did not open the any window as it claims. Am I missing anything? Is there any IE related setting which I need to modify for the above to work?

How I can use use_exit function in oracle forms

Hi,
I will appreacite if Somebody can help me , how I can configure the user_exit function for our Oracle Forms 10g development environment (Windows 32 ).
With regards
Satheesh Kumar

hi,
in order to find out the user exits for any tcode,
1. get the developement class of the tcode from SE93.
2. Now goto transaction SMOD and press F4,
3. give in the Deve class in the dev class and Press ENTER
this will show u the exits for any tcode.
or execute this report
http://www.erpgenie.com/sap/abap/code/abap26.htm
which gives the list of exits for a tcode

No error comes and no output comes. I want the client MAC ID. please guide me where i need to change the code.

How to use dll function in JDeveloper?

I want to use function in dll to develope my application,but
I can't find how to do that in the JDeveloper document.

You have to use the Java Native Interface to use dlls. The JNI
tutorial at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/native1.1/
walks you through the basics and provides a sample too.
Hope this helps.

How to Use Com ports on oracle forms

Hai,
how we can use com port to communicate to the device like Pole Display(output device) or fixed scaneer (input device) having serial port(Input device) in oracle forms.
Thanks & regards

For web forms you will probably need to create a PJC and/or use webutil and make calls to the device's API.

How to use BEAN in an oracle forms at client side

Hello,
I am new in oracle forms.I am using
OS-Windows 7.
Forms [32 Bit] Version 11.1.2.1.0 (Production)
weblogic 10.3.5
Now I want know that how to use bean item in an oracle forms.
Thank You.

Hello,
You copy the corresponding JAR file that contains the Java BEan in your <DEVSUITE_HOME>/forms/java folder, then you add its name to the archive tags of the forsweb.cfg file.
This done, you add a Bean Area to your canvas, set its Implementation Class property with the full class name, then you can communicate with the bean via the GET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY() and SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY() built-in.
Google could also give you more information.

How to use "Rank" function in Oracle?

I need to display Top 15 records by using rank function.
Here is my query...I need to pull top 15 FAQ's using the below query.. How can I use RANK function to display the Top 15 FAQ"s in the list.
Select distinct SUb1.FAQ,Sub1.FAQ_Hits,GU.display_Name_FMLS as displayname,ev.ParentLinkrecordid,ev.userid from User GU
Join Event ev
ON LOWER (ev.userid) IN (LOWER (GU.lanid), LOWER (Gu.racfid))
Join (Select distinct sm.stem as FAQ,Sum(ev.Eventresults) as FAQ_Hits,ev.ParentLinkrecordid as Topic_ID from Event ev
Join SubjectMatter sm
ON (TO_CHAR (sm.smrecordid) = ev.eventdetail1) AND ev.eventdetail1 IS NOT NULL AND sm.smtype = 1
Where (Upper(ev.eventsubtype) in (Upper('FAQ'),Upper('OPENFAQ')))
AND TO_DATE (eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') >= TO_DATE ('20100601', 'yyyymmdd')
and TO_DATE (eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') <= TO_DATE ('20100831', 'yyyymmdd')
Group by sm.stem,ev.Parentlinkrecordid
order by FAQ )sub1
ON Sub1.Topic_ID = ev.ParentLinkrecordid)

A few bits that I noticed in the query ...
in (Upper('FAQ'),Upper('OPENFAQ'))1) Do you really a upper for a string which is already in upper case.
Select distinct sm.stem as FAQ,Sum(ev.Eventresults) as FAQ_Hits,ev.ParentLinkrecordid as Topic_ID2) Do you need a distinct when you are using a GROUP function viz. SUM ?
You rank query is as follows, I am not very good at the ANSI style JOIN so changed it slightly ... :-)
Also notice the usage rank function in the "sub1" query.
select distinct sub1.faq,
                sub1.faq_hits,
                gu.display_name_fmls as displayname,
                ev.parentlinkrecordid,
                ev.userid
from user gu, event ev,
(select rank() over (order by sum(ev.eventresults) desc) rnk,
          sum(ev.eventresults) as faq_hits,
          sm.stem as faq,
          ev.parentlinkrecordid as topic_id
     from event ev, subjectmatter sm
    where (to_char(sm.smrecordid) = ev.eventdetail1)
      and ev.eventdetail1 is not null
      and sm.smtype = 1
      AND upper(ev.eventsubtype) in ('FAQ', 'OPENFAQ')
      and to_date(eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') >= to_date('20100601', 'yyyymmdd')
      and to_date(eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') <= to_date('20100831', 'yyyymmdd')
    group by sm.stem, ev.parentlinkrecordid
    order by faq) sub1
where lower(ev.userid) in (lower(gu.lanid), lower(gu.racfid))
and sub1.topic_id = ev.parentlinkrecordid)
and sub1.rnk <= 15;Like mentioned above, some sample data would have helped.

How to use Java Beans in Oracle Forms 11g at 64 bit windows7

Hello Experts,
I am using Oracle forms 11.1.2.2.0 with weblogic 10.3.6 generic at windows 7 64 bit.
My java version is jdk1.7.0_51.
Now I have a htmlbutton.jar (which is for bean item in oracle form and this jar file works well for oracle forms 11g 32 bit windows 7 environment).
I have takken steps:
1:-Put jar file in home\java folder.
2:-add this jar file into archive in formsweb.cfg.
3:-Add this this jar file(which is in my home- java folder) in form_class path in registry.
Now when I try to locate this jar file in my oracle form.There is no such jar file.what are the steps to use this jar file in oracle forms bean item.
Please told me what is wrong here.
thank you
regards
aaditya.

It is unclear where you are having a problem. Is your issue at runtime (when the form runs in the browser) or when working in the Builder on the form?
Also be aware that you will need to sign your jar and include some new manifest entries. Refer to the Java 7u51 documentation and blogs that discuss the changes.
