9i Forms performance - the final irony
For those who are interested, the performance problems some of our users are experiencing is down to insufficient RAM. According to Oracle Support, JInitiator requires at least 64MB spare, so our users on the 128MB machines are suffering almost constant swapping when they use the 9i Forms application.
In other words, the web-enabled version of the application makes greater demands on the client machine than the client/server version of the forms runtime. Our users are bemused to find they now have to upgrade their desktop machines in order to run a browser-based system. We're going to fine them fifty pence every time they say "but I thought this was thin-client", which will save us having to explain about how Java is such a memory hog.
Support suggested we might use the native JVM which requires less memory but that does rather undermine our sole reason for migrating to 9i Forms: being on a certified platform.
I think I chose our project motto well: Per ardua ad hice.
Cheers, APC
It's a variation on the RAF motto, Per ardua ad astra, "through hard work we reach the stars". My dog latin version means something like "through hard work we can get to where we are now".

i am trying to complete a form but can't get to the final drop down question as it is not displayed because it falls below where my screen ends. i have tried changing the resolution but that doesn't work. any suggestions?

i now have an embarrassing qu. have dowloaded spider solitaire (sad!) and i can't add cards at the bottom of a column for the same reason - the display cuts short. i have tried to extend it with the arrows in the bottom corners but it makes no difference. any ideas? -
Perform as pdf form with the ability to insert pictures
How to perform as pdf form. with the ability to insert pictures?
You want your users to be able to insert images into a PDF form? That is only possible if they're either using Acrobat, or if they're using the latest version of Reader (XI) and the image is in PDF format.

Oracle Forms Performance very slow on the internet
Hi ,
We have developed a form application with forms Developer 10g and deployed it on a ORACLE 10g AS. If the user runs our application over intranet there is no any network problem or not any performance decrease occurs. However if we deploy our application over WAN or internet, the startup time of the forms become Very Slow.
What we can use to make it faster , is there any other tools we have to learn like APEX or JDeveloper , what is the best solution , should we forget the Developer for ever and starting with other tools with fast performance on the internet , if so , what we have to learn , please help us , its common problem .
any help please ,Interesting thread....
You asked whether "Forms" is the right product for the job. Well, the answer to that question will depend entirely on exactly what functionality you need and your skill-set. One advantage of using Forms over other Oracle products is that, in my opinion, Forms allows you to create simple or complex applications very quickly, with limited development experience. The downside to using Forms however, is that it does use a fairly thick client making startup slower than other applications. Generally, Forms is not very well suited for Internet deployments although it can and has been done. If your goal is to use a product which is easy to work with and is appropriate for Internet deployment, you may want to consider Apex. The downside to Apex is that unlike Forms, Apex generates what I like to call static html pages. Meaning once a page is displayed for the end-user, the data on it remains the same until the user forces interaction with the server again, but in this case the entire page would be refreshed in order to realize the changes. In the case of Forms, any content displayed to the end-user can be change without completely refreshing their view. I like to refer to Forms as a living application because unlike Apex, it can easily respond to most user inputs and/or server side changes almost in real-time. If you want this "live" experience, Forms might be the way to go, although at the cost of some startup performance. Alternatively, Oracle ADF can also give you a similar live-like experience. However, ADF will require a broader skill-set (pl/sql, java, html, etc), whereas with Forms you could get away with only knowing pl/sql although java knowledge would be helpful.

Oracle Forms returns the first record in the database when performing query
Once in a while when we query for a record on a form, say by first name Tom, then it returns the first record in the database. Other times it return the Tom's record. It only happens once in a while and if you close the form and reopen it and requery for Tom, then it brings Tom's record.
Does anyone know the issue what could be happening. It just happens every now and then that it's hard to reproduce.
ORacle Forms 10GR2
ORacle Application Server 10.1.3
thanksthen it returns the first record in the databaseI'm not sure if i understand you correctly. Do you mean forms ignores the searc-condition you entered? I would check SYSTEM.LAST_QUERY at the moment this happens to check if the condition gets somehow lost.

Getting the final internal table of a transaction VA05
Hi,
Can anyone help me in getting the final internal table of a transaction VA05 when called from a program. I need to use to this internal table for further processing.
Thanks in advance,
Vinay.Hi,
Not quite sure what you are after but the following may help.
For a start VA05 uses FM RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_VIEW_3 to select it's data. Your program could simply call this. However, if you are doing a CALL TRANSACTION from your program to VA05 and you want to get the results back then you could utilise some 'old style' userexits available in VA05.
Two choices here:
1. At the end of FM RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_VIEW_3 there is a form END_MODIFICATION or
2. When VA05 calls RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_VIEW_3 it performs a user sort MV75AFZ1(MV75AFZ1)
Both of these belong to package VMOD which means you can modify them by simply registering the object in OSS (these are 'old style' exits before SMOD/CMOD and are prevelant in SD)
From either of these you could EXPORT to memory for when control is returned back to your program.
Thanks,
Pete -
Returning multiple values from a called tabular form(performance issue)
I hope someone can help with this.
I have a form that calls another form to display a multiple column tabular list of values(needs to allow for user sorting so could not use a LOV).
The user selects one or more records from the list by using check boxes. In order to detect the records selected I loop through the block looking for boxes checked off and return those records to the calling form via a PL/SQL table.
The form displaying the tabular list loads quickly(about 5000 records in the base table). However when I select one or more values from the table and return back to the calling form, it takes a while(about 3-4 minutes) to return to the called form with the selected values.
I guess it is going through the block(all 5000 records) looking for boxes checked off and that is what is causing the noticeable pause.
Is this normal given the data volumes I have or are there any other perhaps better techniques or tricks I could use to improve performance. I am using Forms6i.
Sorry for being so long-winded and thanks in advance for any help.Try writing to your PL/SQL table when the user selects (or remove when deselect) by usuing a when-checkbox-changed trigger. This will eliminate the need for you top loop through a block with 5000 records and should improve your performance.
I am not aware of any performance issues with PL/SQL tables in forms, but if you still have slow performance try using a shared record-group instead. I have used these in the past for exactly the same thing and had no performance problems.
Hope this helps,

Hello,
I’ve finally managed to deploy my first guest cluster with a shared VHDX using a service template.
So, I now want to try and update my service template. However, whenever I try to do anything with it, in the services section, I receive the error:
Unable to perform the job because one or more of the selected objects are locked by another job. To find out which job is locking the object, in the jobs view, group by status, and find the running or cancelling job for the object. ID 2606
Well I tried that and there doesn’t seem to be a job locking the object. Both the cluster nodes appear to be up and running, and I can’t see a problem with it at all. I tried running the following query in SQL:
SELECT * FROM [VirtualManagerDB].[dbo].[tbl_VMM_Lock] where TaskID='Task_GUID'
but all this gives me is an error that says - conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier msg 8169, level 16, State 2, Line 1
I'm no SQL expert as you can probably tell, but I'd prefer not to deploy another service template in case this issue occurs again.
Can anyone help?No one else had this?

For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes and App Store now seems to suddenly have a character number constraint which prevents me using my 29 character Apple ID. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?
You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

How to get the final document number?
Hi,
How do I retrieve the document number of a document (e.g. delivery note) that is just added?
Currently, I use the following event listener:
[B1Listener(BoEventTypes.et_FORM_DATA_ADD, false)]
in which I retrieve the document number by reading out the text field on the form:
EditText text = (EditText)form.Items.Item("8").Specific;
string deliveryNoteNumber = text.Value;
This works perfect if only one person is adding documents. But if two persons are posting a document, they both see the same (temporary) document number in the form while entering the data. The latest person who finalizes his document, will get another number than the one that was displayed in the form (because the first person already used that number). So, how can I retrieve the number of a document that is just finalized?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards,
Pieter VerhaegheYou can use the "ObjectKey" property of the BusinessObjectInfo object returned by the form_data_add.
Catcth the event with BeforeAction = false - after the add event has successfully happened. Then you will see the ObjectKey property of the BusinessObjectInfo object will have an XML string in it. Inside that XML you can find the DocEntry of the newly added document, you will just need to parse it properly! -
looking to edit the final frame which is the the "credits" section. I have already converted the trailer. Is it too late to correct some nserts in the credits?
Thanks to all.If by "converted" you mean that you've converted the trailer to a normal project using the menu option File>Convert to Project, then YES it is still possible to edit the Credits Title.
In the converted project, double-click on the blue Title bar that sits above the background clip. In the Viewer, double-click on the text you wish to change (or highlight text by dragging over it). Now you can replace the highlighted text by typing in the new text. You can also change fonts and font colours.
It's always good practice to duplicate the Trailer before converting it. To do this, while in Project Library view, click on the Trailer name in the Library then select File>Duplicate Project. A copy will appear in the Library with the same name as the Trailer, but with the number 1 appended. You can rename this copy as desired. Now, convert the duplicate to a standard project and continue with your editing as required. You now have the original Trailer in template form (which can be further edited), and can duplicate it again if required.
John
EDIT: Regarding my first sentence - just noticed that you did mention "converting it to a project" in you topic header. Sorry!

Problem in filling the final internal table
Hi,
I am working on a code in which i have to fill up the final internal table which will store the values coming form different internal tables.Here's the code which i am trying to do but it is not giving the execat functionality.In this code ITOUTPUT is the final itab which is storing the values of all other internal tables.
Here's the code:-
loop at itab1.
select single maktx into v_item from makt where matnr = itab1-matnr.

endloop.Hi,
Ok,i ha d checked my code by using your logic and giving the run time error ......
i had debugged my code (orignal onementioned in above thread with little modification) in which i am able to see that finaloutput (intrenal table) is getting filled properly and the problem arises when the cursor comes to the write statement ... it is repeating some of the values when output is displayed where as before displaying output this iternal table is having the correct data. i am using the following code :-
append itoutput.
ENDLOOP.
p_req = itab1-menge - v_tpo.
write : 195 p_req.
append itoutput. ,<--- added this
clear itoutput. <--- added this
endloop.
loop at itoutput.
write:/ itoutput-banfn,12 itoutput-badat,24 v_item,50 itoutput-meins,53 itoutput-menge,itoutput-lfdat,

When I print a document with Arabic script in In Design the characters appear in an inverted form, in the opposite direction, while the printer doesn't do this with other software such as Word
(The small field at the top of questions is to type just a title; the large field is to type your full question in, along with anything else that may help us help you.)
When you say "print", do you mean the text is correct in your InDesign file? If you export the document to a PDF, is it still correct? Final test: if you print the PDF to your printer (making sure you use the same driver and setting), is it wrong? Then it's your printer driver, trying to be smart when it should not. Locate a Settings dialog where you can switch off options such as this one. Were I a betting person, I'd tell you to look for something called "Auto-correct mirrored documents". -
Column Security Queries generated by FORMS Performs bad on 11g(11.1.0.7)
We are busy Upgrading our DB from 10g (10.2.0.4) to 11g (11.1.0.7).
We are currently using Oracle Application Server (10.1.2.0.2) with Form and Reports connecting to our 10.2.0.4 DB.
The Application Server is not being upgraded as there are compatable with 11g.
However when we point these 10g FORMS to the 11g DB we have huge performance issues on specific queries generated by FORMS if Block Propoerty "ENFORCE COLUMN SECURITY"=Y.
The query that 11g strugles with - for example is:
SELECT obj.object_type, obj.object_name, obj.owner
INTO :b0, :b1, :b2
FROM
(SELECT o.object_type, o.object_name, o.owner
FROM all_objects o,
all_synonyms s
WHERE s.synonym_name = :b1
AND s.owner = :b2
AND s.table_owner = o.owner
AND s.table_name = o.object_name
) obj
WHERE obj.object_type IN ('TABLE', 'VIEW', 'SYNONYM');
This query executes for almost 60 seconds - to check the Users Privs to access an Object.
Question:
HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS DURING thier 11G upgrade???
I would love to hear from other people with a similar technology if - hoe they have resolved these as it is NOT CODE THAT WE have CUSTOM written, IT IS ORACLE generated code that is performing so terrible on 11g*.
All feedback welcome.
PS: Our solution is to DISABLE Column Security on all our Forms as we control access via our own Security module.
WPI just stumbled across the same problem...
