How can I save a form with database connections with the info w/o requiring the connection again?

I have a form in LiveCycle ES2 that has an ODBC connection to an Access 2007 database. The form works great and all the data populates the form just fine, but next I need a way to save the generated form with the data so it can be sent and signed by people who won't (and can't) have a connection to the database. I am developing on a Windows 7, 64 bit machine and have Adobe Acrobat X Pro, and Adobe Reader X.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response. I tried saving the form as Reader Extended in Acrobat Pro, but if I close the form I saved as extended, it still prompts for the data connection. Is there some setting in Adobe LiveCycle in the properties that maybe needs to be set? I have it set as a Dynamic XML Form. In form properties, there is a tab called data binding, should I have "Allow binding to data not defined by the default data connection" checked? Wasn't sure what "Add data nodes inside the filtered data hierarchy" would do either.

Populating a PDF form with database data

I would love to know how (if possible) to populate an Adobe PDF form with data pulled from an Access database.
Background
I have a registration form already created using Adobe LiveCycle which is used by people to fill in their details. With a built-in xml schema, the user saves the form and sends them to me. I extract the data into an xml document which I can then import in an Access database using VBA code.
The Need
When it comes time to re-register, much of the original data provided by the user has not changed. Rather than ask them to fill out the form all over again, I would like to send them their original data and they can update whichever fields they need to. With the xml schema built into the form, I would love to turn this form into a two-way avenue for both importing and exporting data. Is this possible?
Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if I have not provided enough information.

You can connect the form to the DB using anODBC connection. This functionality comes as part of Acrobat but the form must be Reader Extended by the full LiveCycle Server version of Reader Extension to allow this in Reader. In your case, if your system is the only on ethat will interact with the DB then this might be a viable solution (but you woudl have to use Acrobat). This solution woudl involve create an ODBC connection in your system then configuring the form to make use of that connection.
Does that make sense?

Autofill form with database data

I'm trying to create a form that when the page loads, will
          automatically fill with data according to the parameters specified in
          the url. I then want to be able to change fields within the form, and
          submit it, saving the changes to the database.
          I can do the last part, saving to the database via a submit button,
          but is there a way (non-JavaScript) to autofill the form with the
          pertinent data?

SOA advance installaiton with database not allowing owsm to funtion

Friends,
I have installed windows SOA suite on Oracle database using advance installation option. As per instructions I have installed the SOA schemas before I did the SOA suite installation. The installation went fine and was able to start SOA suite but to my surprise I am not able to log into OWSM or WebService manager. I verified the Schema ORAWSM in our database, it is present.
If I do the SOA installation with Olite database everything works fine.
So, friends, I am sure some of you must have got this problem can any of you suggest me what else needs to done to fix this problem. I have installed 3 times, same problem.

[b]How can i connect with database(oracle 9i) from form developer at runtim

Hi Friends,
My problem is as follows, please show me a way.
Let's asume, I have form (developed in 6i) which has database data block. Now, at form level a have assigned on_logon trigger and I have written the following PL/SQL statement in that trigger:
begin
null;
end;
So, when I run this form without connecting to database It does not prompt for a connection. Now I have button lebeled as "Connect" in this form, when user will click on it it will display a window having text boxes to enter user name, password and database name; once the user fill those text boxes and click on a button lebeled as "Ok" then the form runtime environment should be connected with database as per information provided by user. Here to mention that the user already been created, only the connection will be stablished. For example: I want to connect the form with database as "scott/tiger@oradata9i".
To do this, what PL/SQL command statement should i write in that "OK" button's "when_button_pressed" trigger?
If any of you know about this please help me.

Hi
I've answered this question already. If I understand you right, you can use 'LOGON' built-in of Forms. Take a look into documentation.

Published pdf form is unable to connect with database

Hi Guys!
I have created a PDF form using Adobe Live Cycle Designer which have some text fields namely RECORD and NAME. I have connected this form with a Database. When I enter a record in the RECORD number field the NAME field of this form has been populated with the help of XFA Script which is written on the exit event of the RECORD text field. When we publish this form, a new interactive PDF is created which works fine and populates the NAME field from the an SQL database but when I access this PDF form (which is located on a shared location) from some another location (not on the same machine where i designed this form) it is unable to connect to the database and does not work as expected.
I think there is some thing i am missing for the database connectivity.
If any body on this forum can help me out.
thanks
Here is the Script for the above form which i used to populate the NAME FIELD on the basis of enetered RECORD number.
----- Document.Page1.txt_MRN::exit: - (JavaScript, client) -----------------------------------------

// Close connection
oDB.close();

Finally achived the database connectivity for the published pdf form developed in the Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0.
There must be the same driver version of the DSN on both machines. The machine which published the form and the one accessing it.
Use the Admin account to add the DSN on both machines.
Get rid of the error: Connection for Source "DataConnectionName" failed because the environment is not trusted.

Forms 11gR1 with Database Package

Hi everyone,
I'm asking this here, i need to know what i'm doing wrong.
I have a database package that contains pipiled record.
I want to use it in a form with forms builder.
if i do
select * from table(mypackage.myfunction());
in PL/SQL Developper, i get all what i except (list of record)
if i try to use this select in a CURSOR inside my form, i get error about SQL type not authorised
with my from table();
but if i use it with a populate_group_with_query, everything works perfectly.
So, there's a way i can use my package inside a form program unit?
Thanks for your help.

No, working with collection is not like the POPLUATE_GROUP_WITH_QUERY built-in because you have to write the code to process the rows and columns of the collection. A collection, in Oracle, is essentially an Array.
To work with a collection, you have to create an object in your trigger PL/SQL to store the collection. To do this you create a user defined TYPE and then create an object based on this type. Take a look at the article, https://sites.google.com/site/craigsoraclestuff/oracle-forms---how-to-s/forms-procedure-based-block for an example of how to write a database package the uses a collection as the source of data for a Forms data block.
Base on this article, in your Forms trigger you would then create an object typed off of the package type T_EMPLOYEE. Next, you call your database package and assign the collection to your trigger object. Finally, you loop through the collection to perform the needed action on each row. Here is an example of the basic code using the article above as an example:
/* sample code - for demonstration purposes */
/* code is untested */
DECLARE
rec_employees   EMPLOYEE.T_EMPLOYEE;
BEGIN
EMPLOYEE.EMP_SELECT(rec_employees);
FOR idx in 1 .. rec_employees.COUNT LOOP
    -- now do something with each column in the row...
    rec_employees(idx).empno ...
    rec_employees(idx).ename ...
    rec_employees(idx).job ...
    etc...
END LOOP;
END;
Hope this helps.

Forms 6 not connecting with Database 10g

I can not connect Oracle forms 6 with database 10g

795192 wrote:
I can connect to sql plus but i cannot connect my forms 6 with database 10g. getting the following error:
ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name=================================
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
This error means one thing, and one thing only. The client could not find the specified entry in the tnsnames.ora file being used.
As a follow-on to that statement, remember that when you use a dblink, the database in which the link is defined is acting as a client to the database that is the target of the link. So in this case, the tnsnames.ora file on the host of your source should have an entry for your target db, as defined in the db_link.
And for the umpteenth time ... this error has NOTHING to do with the status of a listener. The connection request never got far enough to reach a listener. If anyone tells you to check a listener in response to ora-12154, they are not paying attention, or do not understand how TNS works. This error is the equivalent of not being able to place a telephone call because you don't know the number of the party you want to reach. You wouldn't debug that situation by going to the other guy's house and testing his telephone, or by going to the phone company and testing the switchboard. And you don't debug a ORA-12154 by checking the listener. If I had a top ten list of "Incredibly Simple Concepts (tm)" that should be burned into the brain of everyone who claims to be an Oracle DBA, it would include "ORA-12154 Has Nothing To Do With The Listener".
=================================
A couple of important points.
First, the listener is a server side only process. It's entire purpose in life is to receive requests for connections to databases and set up those connections. Once the connection is established, the listener is out of the picture. It creates the connection. It doesn't sustain the connection. One listener, with the default name of LISTENER, running from one oracle home, listening on a single port, will serve multiple database instances of multiple versions running from multiple homes. It is an unnecessary complexity to try to have multiple listeners or to name the listener as if it belongs to a particular database. That would be like the telephone company building a separate switchboard for each customer.
Second, the tnsnames.ora file is a client side issue. It's purpose is for address resolution - the tns equivalent of the 'hosts' file further down the network stack. The only reason it exists on a host machine is because that machine can also run client processes.
Assume you have the following in your tnsnames.ora:
larry =
(DESCRIPTION =
 (ADDRESS_LIST =
 (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost)(PORT = 1521))
 (CONNECT_DATA =
 (SERVICE_NAME = curley)
)Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
$> sqlplus scott/tiger@larrytns will look in your tnsnames.ora for an entry called 'larry'. Next, tns sends a request to (PORT = 1521) on (HOST = myhost) using (PROTOCOL = TCP), asking for a connection to (SERVICE_NAME = curley).
Where is (HOST = myhost) on the network? When the request gets passed from tns to the next layer in the network stack, the name 'myhost' will get resolved to an IP address, either via a local 'hosts' file, via DNS, or possibly other less used mechanisms. You can also hard-code the ip address (HOST = 123.456.789.101) in the tnsnames.ora.
Next, the request arrives at port 1521 on myhost. Hopefully, there is a listener on myhost configured to listen on port 1521, and that listener knows about SERVICE_NAME = curley. If so, you'll be connected.
What can go wrong?
First, there may not be an entry for 'larry' in your tnsnames. In that case you get "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified" No need to go looking for a problem on the host, with the listener, etc. If you can't place a telephone call because you don't know the number (can't find your telephone directory (tnsnames.ora) or can't find the party you are looking for listed in it (no entry for larry)) you don't look for problems at the telephone switchboard.
Maybe the entry for larry was found, but myhost couldn't be resolved to an IP address (say there was no entry for myhost in the local hosts file). This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe there was an entry for myserver in the local hosts file, but it specified a bad IP address. This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe the IP was good, but there is no listener running: "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, but it is listening on a different port. "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, it is listening on the specified port, but doesn't know about SERVICE_NAME = curley. "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor"
=====================================

How to get current row of Advanced table with no submit

I have an advanced table with an 'Add another button'. When an empty row is created by clicking this button, LOV is used on the first column to populate other fields of the row. The rows of the table carry a button called "Add dependencies" whose functionality is to take the user to a different table to add rows to a different VO. This button is just a button and not a submitButton. I am passing the row's primary key as part of the URI as Vo attribute FdTaskId={@FdTaskId}
The button works perfectly fine for database fetched rows (rows already present in the database), but, for the rows created using 'Add Another button', though LOV populates all fields including the primary key, the URI parameter passes null to the next page. That means, the VO attribute is not set. This works fine only when a 'submit' happens in the first page. For example, if I click Add another row again, then the previously inserted row passes the primary key fine as part of {@FdTaskId}.
Could you please help me how I can resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Datta

I am doing exactly that. My issues is that, VO attribute is passed correct for the table rows which are fetched from the database. For the table rows which got created through 'Add Another button', the VO attribute passed through URI as {@FdTaskId} is returning null. The VO attribute sets only when a form submit happens. For example, after adding a row through 'Add another row' button, click the same button again to add one more row and now go back to previously added row and now you can see that its VO attribute is set ({@FdTaskId} carries value )
