MS Word smart quotes don't paste the same into Forms 10g as Forms 6i

Hi all,
I have users who write text in Microsoft Word and then cut-and-paste it into Oracle Forms.
After some prodding by the developers, the users have switched to using the 10G version of their application instead of the 6i version.
As a background you should know that Microsoft Word uses Smart Quotes by default, which you can turn off. Smart Quotes are different ascii characters than the ascii 39 single quote and ascii 34 double quote.
When the users cut-and-paste the Microsoft Word text into the Forms 10G field, the single apostrophe smart quote does not convert to ascii 39. I wouldn't be surprised about this except that in Forms 6i the form does convert the single apostrophe smart quote into ascii 39.
So if the users use the 6i Form they can cut-and-paste and the form/database has the character as ascii 39. If the users paste into Forms 10G then the database shows the character as ascii 191 (hex 0xBF), which is an inverted question mark.
Does anyone know of any settings in Forms 10g to revert back to 6i functionality for this?
Thanks much,
Troy

I am afraid that Jan is right.
And this might be a bit of a hassle, since it might affect your forms. If you are using some standard Windows lettertype in your forms, though, you should be OK.
Bare in mind, that you the NLS_LANG.characterset will have to be compatible between database and forms (the latter at both compiletime and runtime).
Good Luck!

How to display an image in FORM 10g/11g data recovered through Web Services

Any help thank you.

I tried it doing it this way and it worked -
1. copy the image into the directory aliased in 9iAS configuration file as '/images/'.
2. In the PL/SQL code section after header, I write the following code -
begin
htp.p('<img src="/images/pobexp.gif"/>');
end;

Scan images into Forms app / Twain scanner

Can you provide your thoughts on how to have a Form ***QUICKLY*** scan and crop passport photo size images from a scanner
Speed of data entry is essential so I would like to minimize the total time and keep the mouse and key click count down.
I would like to do as much as possible within the form window. Scanning directly into an image on the form would be nice as the current app does this via a Twain scan
The scanned image will be stored in a file (either on the Forms application server or in the client MS-Windows file system ). The file name will be stored in the database and displayed in the form. Im not sure if the image needs to be displayed in the form window or not.
The scanned images are passport sized photos of face.
The user needs to make minimum changes to the photo - usually only cropping.
Are there any Java beans that will help do this ? Should I use OLE via WEB_UTIL ? Any other ideas ?
Thanks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Environment : Forms 10g (9.0.4.0.19), Database 10gr2, Window client, Linux / Unix application server, scanners are Twain compatible or can scan to file.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks - that is the info I was hoping for.
There are Forms java bean solutions from two different people on that page. Ill try and get in touch with them and see if I can sponge the code off them.
In the meantime, please post more suggestions if you have them

Adding images into a pdf as pages

I need to add images into a pdf but want to do it in a way that when I add them, it will resize the image to the page size. The images are large format when inserted. Anyone know what to change in the settings to automatically resize the images at insertion?
Thanks

Hi,
The Professional version of Acrobat (8.x & 9.x) provides the means of creating a "blank page".
In either, opening the Acrobat Help and clicking on "Search" lets you enter the string:
"blank page".
In both (8 & 9) the first (top) return is "Create a PDF from a blank page".
From the menu (for both releases) -
File > Create PDF > From Blank Page
will result in a blank PDF being created by Acrobat.
From Acrobat Preferences (discussed in the installed Help and in the online LiveDocs Help - a help system that reflects ongoing updating) you can provide some configure control for the blank page.
Edit > Preferences > select Category "New Document".
Alternatively, you could set up a desired page size in an authoring application and output a "blank" PDF for use.
Placing an image –
One way to do this.
With the PDF open, open the Advanced Editing menu and select the TouchUp Object Tool
or use Tools > Advanced Editing > TouchUp Object Tool
With the TouchUp Object Tool selected & mouse cursor in the PDF page, right click for the context menu.
Select Place Image (Shift+G in windows while context menu is present can also be used).
In the Browse dialog, locate and select the desired image.
Once the image has been placed to the PDF page it (the image) will have black "grab" squares at each corner.
Use these to size the image. With mouse cursor in the image the up-down-left-right cursor icon appears.
Use this to position the image.
Button Tool –
AA8Pro:
Tools > Forms > Button Tool
Also, on the Forms Toolbar
AA9Pro:
Tools > Advanced Editing > Buttons
Also, on the Advanced Editing Toolbar
Over the years the depth and breadth of features available with Acrobat (Pro & Pro Extended in particular) have
grown dramatically. All the discrete topics are in Acrobat Help, arranged in a pretty logical hierarchy.
Unfortunately, as you allude to, locating the individual topics and establishing a practicable understanding of how
disparate topics come together to support specific tasks can be a challenge.
Fortunately, this affords forum participants the opportunity to share the "how-to" understanding they've acquired.
(by study/application, inadvertent stumbling across it, or learning from someone else's post )
Be well...

Read reportsserver - name from registry or from system into forms 10g

Hi
I want to read the entry of reportsserver from registry or from the system into forms 10 g because the same form is testing and running on different hosts/ AS
work on XP
how to do ?
thank you
Norbert

Add a new environment variable in your default.env file (or whichever .env your config is using):
MY_REPORT_SERVER_NAME=REP_MY_IAS_SERVER
You can then use:
declare
var varchar2(2000);
begin
tool_env.Getvar('MY_REPORT_SERVER_NAME', var);
message(var);message(var);
end;
You don't need Webutil to do this.

Adding Image in Reports 10g

I have added one image in existing Report to customize it.While seeing the utput in Applications it does not display the image.The format for the image is .jpg.We are using Applications R12,Reports 10g.How to get it.

Hi ,
Firstly sorry for asking in the same thread . .
I am also working in the same envronment.
my destination type is PDF and its a bitmap report.
so my senario is something like this.
I need to print the signature of the agent based on the agent id on all pages of the report.
and each page it has to check the agent id and print the same .. we can issue the report to generate the o/p for multiple orders/so multiple agents. . . so
1st page -> jack -> so his singature . ..
2nd page -> Jack . . same order continues -> same signatuer repeats.
3rd page -> scott -> so another signature . .
issues:
we have to print this in the footer of the page . . so we used the edit margin section for the same.
we are actually picking up the agent id for that page using a summary column and function set to last and reset at page level.
( both the summary column and the formula colum are not in any group in the data model)
we created a formula column for picking the image file properties below
type: character
read from file: yes
file_type: image
it actually works but the problem is the image starts from the second page onwards. and for 3 pages it prints . . .
1st page -> blank - Jack's signature is req.
2nd page - > jack's signature appears . .
3rd page -> jack's signature -> should be scott's signature
in case the fourth page for scott or any other person is ther e
scott's signature appears . . .
please guide me . . .
thanks and regards
Jagan.

characters[2] = Image.createImage("/mPackage/res/pics/menu/priestess.png");

Inserting images into forms

I want to know how I can create a pdf form that will allow people to attach images to the form so when they submit it the images are also submitted. Can anyone help?

If they have a full version of Acrobat, then you could set up a button field from the Forms menu and set it to accept an icon only. They would need to have some knowledge of Acrobat but it could be done.

Hey everyone I need some help with images in CR-XI.
I have a db of Items that I sell in my store with all of the specs listed and I want to link the pictures of each item into my report. I cant seem to get the picture to show up in the report. All I get is the OLE box and the file name of the image. The actuall picture does not show up.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response SKodidine.
I actually figured out the problem I was having. I was using jpeg images and after reading a few notes I tried using bitmap images and now all of my images show up. BUT!
I still have a problem. For some reason all of my images show up in the report very small and pixilated. When I try to expand the image they look horrible. Also, the image file names and file type extensions show up beneath the image. here is a screenshot of it.
