Need help on Forms Customization

Hi All,
I have one requirement i.e I developed one form which contails 3 windows.First window is for Query_Find, second one is for orders Summary and third window is for detail.In detail window i have one stacked canvas which displays order details in tabular form.i have written code for inserting data into one custom table in ON-INSERT and ON-UPDATE trigger of that block.
and Commit_Form in the KEY-COMMIT trigger.My requirement if i check the chekbox and change the status(List item ) from status field and when i click on save button it's saving the changes.But i don't want to save the changes at this time.
How can we restict save changes at this point?
Can any one plzz give me some idea.
Thanks in Advance,

Dhana,
In the When-Button-Pressed trigger just check the value of the CheckBox and the Status field value before you call the Commit_Form built-in or Commit. But what about if the user clicks on the Save button in the Menu? What if the user uses Ctrl+S to save. You would also want to perform a similar check in the Key-Commit Form level trigger if you want to prevent the "Save" from these options as well.
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)

I need help in form 6i

Good morning everyone,
I need help please
someone who has handled expiry of session in form 6i
I am using a library called D2KWUTIL.PLL
and triggers When-new-form-instance and When-timer-expired.
The problem I have is that the screens flash forms text boxes, I realized that this is for the trigger When-timer-expired
and believe that my timer every 1 second, the issue is to control the inaction and close all forms.
Help me if you know another way to handle session expiration.
thanks in advance.

A way to do it in forms could be this:
-Create a global containg the last time the user did an action.
-Create a form-level WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM-trigger an let it update that date. (If you want also other actions to be treated as "action", you might add additional triggers, like KEY-ENTQRY and KEY-EXEQRY,..)
-Create a timer, whichs check if the last actiondate in the global is older than you want to allow.
-Make sure that the timer fires as less often as possible.
Personally, i would recommend to not do it that way, because when you "switch" to webforms some day, the timers can/will make problems.thanks for replying,
may be more explanatory
thanks

Need suggestion on forms customization

Hi All,
I'm new to Oracle Forms and would like to know how to go about the following on a seeded form in Oracle apps R12.
1) On the 'Create Service' form which is available under Field Service Manager responsibility, we have a field called 'Category'. I checked the record history and it is coming from the view cs_sr_incidents_v_sec
2) The requirement is to get this field from some other table (client has requested for a change based on their business process).
3) Can you please advise me on how to do this? Can it be done by modifying custom.pll?
4) Also please help me with links to any tutorial/demo explaining similar change in a seeded form of Oracle apps.

Modifying seeded forms (objects) is not supported, and your changes might get lost each time you apply an application patch that overwrites this form/object.
Customizing/Extending Oracle Applications Release 11 FAQ [ID 101048.1]
Global Customer Services Customization Guidelines [ID 122452.1]
If you want to change the source object that a form is reading from then you need to create your own custom form and use a different view/table.

Need help with form calculations

I'm converting a non-editable PDF form into an editable one and could use some help as I'm am new to this. Note: I did not create the non-editable form, It's a form I downloaded and use in my business.
I already figured out how to create text fields in the already created PDF non-editable form, now I'm trying to add in calculations. I can create the (value is the) calculations between 2 or more text fields, but now I need to multiply one text field by the number 3 and have the answer show up in another text field.
Example:
I'll use the letters A & B for the text filed names in my example.
I have text field A calculating the sum of other text fields using the (value is the sum of) option under the (calculate properties box.)
Now I want text field B to multiply text field A by a fixed number of 3. (A=24) x 3=72. I need text field B to have the answer of 72 in it.
I need text field B to always multiply text field A by 3.
Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?
I'm using Adobe 8 Pro.
Please note that I have no experiance using custom calculation script if that is the only way this will work and will step by step instruction on how to write the code.
Thank you very much.

You can use the simplified field notation option. In this case, you'd enter:
3 * A
Where "A" the the exact name of the A field. It is best to avoid spaces and any other special characters for any fields that you'll want to include when using simplified field notation option.

Need Help on Forms Personalization

Hi All,
I am doing personalization on Sales Order Form.When i select Order Type as 'Mixed' i have to display salesperson as "No Sales Credit" in the form.But when i click on lov of salesperson field it is giving list of values. But i need only one item in the list i.e "No Sales Credit" when i select order type as 'MIXED'.For this i am trying to restrict lov of salesperson through Create Record Group from Query Built-in.But where can i put condition as Order Type as 'Mixed' in that personalization.
Can anyone please help me out.
Is there any posssible way to do this.
Thanks in advance,
Dhanasurya

Hi DhanaSurya,
First, you need to put 'Order Type' as Mixed in the Query Where clause of 'Create Record group from Query', and then you need to atatch a new Record group to the LOV with property:
Object Type: LOV
Target Object: <OLD LOV ON FORM>
Property name: GROUP_NAME
Value: 'customized Record Group Name'.

Need help getting form created in Acrobat X to email form data back to me

The form I created seems to work from my computer that has Acrobat X installed but when I try to submit the PDF with a computer that only has Reader installed it says "This Operation is Prohibited."
The end users of this form will most likely only have Adobe Reader, how do I set up my form so that it is compatible with Reader?
Thanks for your help!

You have 2 choices and one depends on your satisfying the limits of the EULA (no more than 500 submissions basically). For the latter, you have the entire form submitted and you have to enable Reader Rights in Acrobat. On this machine (AA8), it is under the Advanced menu, not sure with AAX (I think they moved it). For the other choice that does not have the license limit, you do not activate Reader Rights, but have the data submitted as an FDF file (XML if you are using Designer, but then Designer questions should really go to the LiveCycle forum). When you receive the FDF or XML file, you simply go to the forms menu in Acrobat > Manage Data, and import the data. The FDF Toolkit also allows separate manipulation of data files.

Need help with Forms on iPad

I am trying to view and submit forms on my iPad. I've created a form in LiveCycle and emailed it to myself but I am unable to view or open the PDF form with the Adobe Reader app. Please help!

Hi Randy - I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5 and when I try to create a new form a pop-up comes up saying that the form will be edited in Adobe LiveCycle designer and that Adobe Acrobat will close. I do not have the option to stay in Adobe Acrobat. Any idea how to stay in Adobe Acrobat instead of moving into LiveCycle? I want to create some PDF forms that can be filled out on an iPad in Adobe Reader and then emailed. Thank you!

Need help regarding form validation

Hi all,
I have particular doubt regarding form validation. I have a form based on a table. ( One data block ) . I have a function in program unit which return boolean value based on some conditions. I will be calling this function in block validate trigger.
What i need is , if function return false i need to stop any insertion,updation action that's going to be done by forms.( point to control insertion and updation)
I don't want to use form triggure failure builtin. What should i do ? plz guide
regards

what are you going to do stop insert/update upon commit?
-- use on-insert trigger
if allowed_to_insert then
insert_record;
end if;
-- use on-update trigger
if allowed_to_update then
update_record;
end if;
if when entering data, you might want to check set_block_property

Need Help: Submit form through email

I need to submit my form to an email address on single click of a button.
The submit type can be either XML or PDF. But i should neither get any warning nor it should open the Email Client.
And everything should happen within Adobe Reader 9.
Is this possible?
Thanks in Advance,
Nith

Hi Nith,
I saw this question and was interested in what sort of database setup you've got etc. Im a bit new and was just starting to explore how or if you could establish a database to take and store the information directly from the forms
I know this is a bit off topic.... but any pointers would be appreciated. I have CS4 master suite (no other livecycle products or budget for them though) and Office 2007.
I had been using a custom xml parser to pull the info and put it into target files but this has no storage/reuse potential and is getting real "clunky" so im keen to learn about databases and livecycle.
cheers

Need help creating form that people have to submit to access a page

hello,
I am trying to create a form that people would have to fill out and submit to access a specific page. The info they fill out would have to go to an email address. Does anyone have the simplest solution for this? It wouldn't have to be stored in a database just go to an email. Any help would be appreciated. I'm not to great with the backend of things.

Thanks for getting back to me. What I have is a pricing page. The feedback form is so we can see who views or is interested in services. We want only people who fill out this form to be able to view it. I have created simple contact forms that are sent to an email and directed to another page. The problem I am having is trying to figure a way to where hopefully if the same person comes back they won't have to fill out the form again. I know if they fill out the form and create a user name/login it could be a possible fix but I am trying to make it simple. I am just starting to learn PHP/XML (which I have copied from another sources) and haven't written my own. Maybe creating a cookie that is checked once the page is loaded? I have no idea how to do that either though... I am a front end "designer" and a lot of this is greek to me.

Need Help- Acrobat Forms

I work at a school and created an adobe form for student write ups.
We have it hosted on our network and I created a submit file and a response file.
Right now when I open the response file I can update and edit and save. But when my principal opens it, he can only see what I have saved and cant do any updates or saves.
Is it possible for 2 accounts to have full rights to the response file? If not is there a better way to do this. We want to both be able to see, update, change and save the files.
I feel like I have tried everything but nothing seems to work.

OK, and this may not be any more help, but another thing I would check is if anything is locked on the form when you go into the form wizard and edit fields... especially if when you go to the save button or save the document it automatically locks it. If you place a signature on it it automatically locks the document and I am not sure how to get around that. Also if you are submitting the form to like an intranet page, make sure if you export it as an FDF you check "Incremental changes to the PDF" and probably comments
Finally (nearing the end of my 30 second Adobe class I went to) if you are saving it as a PDF document to sent to the other party, then it automatically locks the document for security reasons (please correct me if I'm wrong)... and as a last resort or a workaround he could probably bring up typewriter and just type what he wants in there and save it that way. If refilling fields and adding data is a requirement I think the only real way to do that is to distribute the form as an FDF.
Hopefully in all that jibberish you found something that is of use...
As far as setting up admin users, I was not aware of any feature like that... I thought if you originated the form then you were the super user as it were... if the other document works just fine and they are both made the same way then I am not sure... sorry to not be of much help

Need help - installing forms

Hi,
I have Windows2000 on my machine. I have Installed Oracle9i for Windows2000. I am looking to Install forms and Reports, but could not find the product for Windows2000. Please let me know - which product I need to install for Forms & reports for Windows2000 & Oracle 9i/8i personal editions.
Thanks in advance.

I have Installed Forms 6i. During the installation startup, it has asked me for oracle home. Installation didn't accept oracle9i home. I have given another name - forms6i and changed the directory for the forms to install. Installation has given me some dialogues like "some of the files may be installed and cannot be removed later because they will affect your operating system".
I went ahead and installed. It had installed forms6i. When I am trying to connect using userid/password@connectstring, it is giving me error saying "TNS could not resolve connect string".
Please let me know - what I can do now. Shall I have to work with TNSnames file? - which Oracle home should I use - Database's or form's?
Thanks in advance.
