i place the modules in the the forms9i oracle home path to make it easy for me to run but i still have the problem.
pls i need to solve this problem out fast
thankz

Hai
this is vas. I think you did it all may be try.
first create a menu and generates it and save it on same folder where the form stays.(respective folder) and compile both forms and menu in screen.and go to form name properties, change it to menu module --> menu name.mnx ,now save it
and try this
i hope it will work
check it and reply me back.this will work only in individual form and menu not in application
for application u ,there is a different way
thanks
bye

Oh ! Sorry, I didn't mention it as FORMS 5.0 problem.
In FORMS 5.0 there is a new feature to create a report for
database block.
My question is after creating the report , how can I invoke it
from that particular form.

Give access only one form module for a particular person.

i have four form module like accounts,import,export,HR, each module has number of menus. I have to give a person to access only the module(accounts).
when that particular person login into home page, he has to see the accounts module only.
How to do this?
Skud.

Hi,
01. You need to create a procedure to check the permission based on the username and returnm true or false based on the user access.
Then in the form, In "When-New-Form_Instance" trigger call that and check wheher user has permission or not.
If not show a error and then call "Exit_Form" in-built function.
02. Other alternative way you can do is to add some code to logon screen and then hide unwanted menu items dynamically
* If this answer is helpfull or correct then please mark it and grant the points.

How to debug a form module (Oracle 11G Forms) through URL

How to debug a form module (Oracle 11G Forms) through URL.
My server OS is Unix. So i could not able to do the Debug Forms from the Form Developer.
It is displaying a message that "Cannot find the module". Becuase the system is trying find out the module in Unix system instead of ma local system(Windows).
I need to debug ma module through URL.
I can place the fmb and fmx in predefined form path in Server.
Please help me out to solve this issue..

This is a little unclear. If your goal is to use the Forms Builder Debugger while running your form on a Unix machine, this can be done. However, the form must first be in running order. So before trying to attach the debugger you must first be able to start it without the debugger. For example:
http://yourServer:OHS_port_number/forms/frmservlet?form=yourFMX
Once this is properly running you can turn on debugging. If your form won't even start, then using the Debugger isn't going to help you because it is designed to troubleshoot coding problems and not configuration problems.
So, do this to use the Debugger:
http://yourServer:OHS_port_number/forms/frmservlet?form=yourFMX&debug=yes
This will display a dialog box with some information. Do not click on OK yet as you will need this information to enter into the Forms Builder. Now, open the Forms Builder and click on Debug > Attach Debug. You will be asked for the information displayed in the dialog where you attempted to start the form. Enter it here (in the Builder) then click on ok in both places. To display the Debugger (in the Builder), click on Debug > Debug Console. Then from its toolbar click on the buttons related to what you want to monitor. Including a break point in your application code is often a more helpful way to use the debugger.
Most of this information is explained in the Forms Builder Online Help
Forgot to mention...
To debug runtime issues, refer to the Forms Deployment Guide here (this assumes you are using 11.1.2):
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E38115_01/doc.111210/e24477/appa.htm

VGS-1501 Error while opening the canvas in the form module

Hi All,
I am getting “VGS-1501: <message not found>” message while opening the canvas. Actually in my machine Oracle Apps R12 is installed. To work on forms I have opened form builder and created a data block manually and created a canvas in the form module manually. To add items on the canvas, when I am clicking on canvas then first I am getting “VGS-1501: <message not found>” error message and then after canvas is getting opened. But here in the canvas there were no items available in the side tool bar.
Then I decided to build form through wizard. Once the form was created, then when I opened the canvas then again I got the same error message. Here when I tried to run the form, then the form got closed automatically. This problem is related to forms only because I am able to work on Oracle Apps (functionally) and also I am able to develop a report using report builder. Can somebody please help me to fix this issue
Thanks
Thahessen

I got something sililar behaviour when I use different version forms in different version of developer environment. Sometimes your Forms_PATH and REPORTS_PATH may be point ot wrong version.
This is only a assumption...

Error when running attached menu to form

I have recently attached a menu to a form. It worked the first
time, but not I just get the error :
"form-10221: Cannot read file <menu filename>"
I have recompiled "This section" as well as "compile all".
According Oracle help, I should just recompile the application
library.
Any ideas ?

Hi,
You have to put your menu where oracle can find it.
Check where it goes in the regedit/ formXX_path
add a new path or place your menu in the default oracle path.
by default it is supposed to find it if it is in the same folder
but not every time...
another solution create a shortcut and put all you need to run
the form in a single folder and mark this folder in the start in
box of your shortcut.
I hope this help you.
Sorry for my english!

Assuming you have the .FMB files stored on your hard drive, you can simply double-click on them or use File -> Open in Forms Builder.

Do I need to buy the Enterprise Suite or just Forms module?

Hello,
My company needs to use the funcionalities that Forms module gives, so we are planning to purchase it. But I'm not sure if it's possible to use its functionalities just having this module, or if we need to buy the Enterprise Suite because it includes the server and other things that are needed to deploy the applications.
Sorry for the newbie question guys. I'd very much appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the advice DadduPandeyLC. I contacted with LCsupport but they could not give me an answer.
The application is not complex, we have a pdf template and data in xml files and we have to merge them to generate the filled pdf files. The problem is that the number of files generated will be thousands, and I know LC Output is prepared to generate batches of many files but they are flat pdfs, not forms.
It doesnt have to be an online app, it will just be executed once to generate all the files. I know LC Forms can merge the data, because I tried it with the trial version, but I'm not sure if there is a way to automate this process for thousands of files.
That's basically why I doubt if we should use this module. Has anyone tried to do something similar with LC Forms?
Thanks

Get the form module version using JDAPI program

Hi
I have one problem to find the verison of form module using java (JDAPI) programming.
To the JDAPI program i am just passing the form name. by reading the form it has to say the form version.
Is there any method to get this...
Thanks in advance.
Madhava

I solved my problem...
first of all.
Versioning was enabled for the folder but apparently it didnt work so i disabled it and enabled it again. Then I got the correct reource instead of null.
second thing
later in mycode I used this to get the path of the resource
resource.getRID().getPath();
but this gives the path to where the version of the document can be found... something like /documents/~System/xx/xxxxx/xxxx
where x is numbers
after doing a little debugging I found out that
resource.getAccessRID().getPath()
returns the path to where in CM the resource is stored.
I hope My experience here can help others.
I am glad that I solved my problem, but I find it extremely worrying that some settings in CM apparently stops working without any apparent reason.
We have experienced this with other properties like Manual Ordering, Approval process, have any one else had these problems and found the cause then I would like to hear about it

Form Builder (Forms 6i) exit without message when compiling a form module

Hi all,
i can't resolve problem with Form Builder since 2 weeks.
i have Forms 6i which always exit when i compile form module connecting
to a remote database (oracle 817). There is 2 remote database server 817 in our LAN.
However this happen only for one remote server, while the same form module connecting to another remote database (oracle 817) is well compile and work fine.
I configure a service name with Net8 Easy Config locate on <Oracle for Windows 95>, but the problem is the same. Can anyone suggest, what could be the reason for the problem.
Best regards.

Hi Experts,
We are getting the same issue. Our form builder crashes once we open our custom form
in form builder.
Server shows:-
Forms 6.0 (Forms Runtime) Version 6.0.8.28.0 (Production)
Form Builder shows:-
Forms [32 Bit] Version 6.0.8.11.3 (Production)
How to upgrade the form builder version?

Application reverts to old form module

On several occasions when creating an application in Forms 6i, a form module will "revert" to an previous version. Changes are made, compiled and saved and show up on the design/layout canvas, but when the form is run the previous incarnation of the module will appear. The only way I have been able to work around this problem has been to save the module under a new name and drop the old form and change all the associated triggers, etc.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions?

Sherry,
I've had similar problems in the past, and it usually ends up being that FORMSnn_PATH contains a directory with an older version of the form in it. Alternatively, I have found that if the "new" form is invoked from a form that I already have open, then the O/S seems to use a cached version of the target form. Exiting Forms and re-running the app sometimes helps.
Hope this is of some use.
