Bad Bind Varaibles in FORMULA COLUMN

Hi ,
i am using reports6i. i wanna use formula column.in my layout editor i had two columns named total(cashamt)
and total(creditcardamt).ie f_cashcard and f_creditcardamt.these both bears total of cashamt and creditcard respectively.now i wanna make total of these tow columns,when in formula column.. i write a function..
function ....
temp number;
begin
temp:=:f_cashamt+:f_creditcardamt;
return(temp);
end;
IT GIVES AN ERROR bad bind variables f_cashamt and f_creditcardamt.but these two are in layout editor..
pls help me as soon as possbile.
Thanx in advance..

Hello,
Try using the source of the field, rather than the name of the field. You can find the source in the layout editor. Click on the field and then press your F4 key. The properties of that field will come up. Find the source name and use the source name in your formula. Hope this helps.

How to use a Formula Column in the main query?

Hi All,
I've tried to use a formula columns defined in some query in the condition of that query like this:
where (:cf_ex - :cf_ex2) >= 5
but when I run the report no data returned! Why? and how to use it the condition of the query?
Note: I'm using Forms 6i

where (:cf_ex - :cf_ex2) >= 5You cannot do that. Formula columns are not part of the select statement (which runs in the database), but are processed in the report.
When you created this query, my guess is that you got the message "Note: the query Q1 has created the bind parameter(s) cf_ex, cf_ex2". Check these User Parameters in your data model. So, you are actually referencing user parameters in the query, not formula columns.
I made a computations and things using PL/SQL that can't be done in the select statement in the data model!If it's pl/sql you can probably use that in your query. Create some database functions for cf_ex and cf_ex2 and use these in your query.

'Error 49 bad bind variable' error message.

When I copied a form that has been working from our Linux server to my PC and compiled it, I received many error messages like this in several procedures, functions and triggers:
“Error 49 at line 69, column 10, bad bind variable ‘edit_Dealer.corporation’
Does anybody know why this is? As I said, the app works for the end user from the Linux server.
Thank You.

Does the form you copied have any attached libraries or subclassed objects? If so, did you copy the Library and Object source files to your PC as well? If you copied these supporting files already, are they in a directory location that is part of your FORMS_PATH?
Hope this helps,

Bad Bind Variable

Hi friend,
I do want to use a trigger to update a varchar2 value:
create or replace trigger WORK_STITCH_NAME_TRIG
after insert or update on ASS_WORK_STITCH
for each row
declare
NAME VARCHAR2(100);
begin
if inserting then
select ENAME into NAME from UAMRIS.WORDER where OID=:new.OID;
update UAMRIS.WORDER
set ENAME=(:new.NAME)
where OID=:new.OID;
end if;
end ;
but it gives me error as ':New.Name' bad bind variable.
Can someone help me out with this plz!
Thanks,
Zeeshan

You correction in the trigger created correctly but it is not making any changes to the worder table!If you read my last reply, that was exactly what I said. Now Centinul could be right. Do you have column NAME in triigering table and you want to update WORDER table with column NAME new value? If so, you do not need PL/SQL variable at all:
create or replace trigger WORK_STITCH_NAME_TRIG
after insert or update on ***_WORK_STITCH
for each row
begin
if inserting then
update UAMRIS.WORDER
set ENAME=:new.NAME
where OID=:new.OID;

Bad Bind Variable? I'm trying to make a host variable!

Okay, so I've declared a global variable:
VARIABLE g_total NUMBER
and I want to use this variable to hold the results of a stored procedure (I minimized my code to focus on the problem area):
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE my_procedure
(p_price IN m_movies.price%TYPE
p_quantity IN m_cart.quantity%TYPE)
IS
BEGIN
:g_total := p_price * p_quantity;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Order total is: '||:g_total);
END;
After all this, I get an error "bad bind variable g_total" for both lines I'm using it inside the procedure. What the heck is a bind variable? I'm using a host variable! (I think). Does this have anything to do with the fact that I can only assign a very generic NUMBER datatype to the host variable? Please help!

Hi,
Maybe the problem is in other place, because the code works fine (I commented column types because I don't have these tables):

Bad bind variable error on creating trigger

hi
im trying to create a trigger on a table in Oracle and I keep gettin this error:
PLS-00049: bad bind variable 'NEW.ID'
TeamID is a primary Key, it creates the sequence fine, but i get the error on the create trigger,
CREATE TABLE TBLTEAMS
TEAMID NUMBER(5),
NAME VARCHAR2(50 BYTE),
MANAGER VARCHAR2(50 BYTE),
COSTCENTRE NUMBER(9),
PARENTTEAMID NUMBER(5)
create sequence seq_Teamsautonumber;
create trigger trg_Teamsautonumber
before insert on tblteams
for each row
begin
select seq_Teamsautonumber.nextval into :new.id from dual;
end;
any ideas?

You have said
:new.idthat means you are trying to load the sequence value into a column that doesn't exist in your table.
you would need to use
:new.teamidAssuming you are trying to auto-populate the TEAMID column on your table.

Pls advise. I am using Toad.
Thanks.

tnam1 not belongs to t1t2t3.
:new should be used to te columns of the table on which you are writing the trigger.
Here i think t1t2t3 has t1name field you have to use :new.t1name instead of :new.t1nam(which belongs to table t1)

Oracle 6i Formula Column

Hi Techies,
I have an Oracle 6i report which has a parameter form. It takes the argument Contract_Num as an input. Based on the value of the Contract_Num, a formula column displays a string.
Now I dont want to use the parameter form. I have simply modifed my report group query. I get all the contract_num in the output but the respective string is not displayed as I dont input any Contract_Num in the parameter form. The Formula Column always returns NULL in the all the pages.
Please advise on how to pass the contract_num to the Formula Column to display the respective string in each page.
Thanks
Sri

Hi Sri,
As you said you have modified your query, you can directly bind the variable in the formula column as
: (your variable).
If your formula is outside your report group. Please place your formula column within that record group and try.

Trigger Bad Bind Value Auto Increment

I am new to the Oracle world and am trying to make the switch from MySQL so my apologies if this seems like a silly question.
I am trying to figure out what is wrong with my trigger code. Basically , I am trying to create an auto-increment solution using some example code I found on the Internet.
I have a fairly simple table structure:
CREATE TABLE "CIMS"."computerSoftware"
( "computerSoftware_id" NUMBER(11,0),
"cid" NUMBER(11,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL ENABLE,
"publisher" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"name" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"version" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"serialNumber" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"unlimited" NUMBER(4,0) DEFAULT 0,
"copies" NUMBER(9,0) DEFAULT 1 NOT NULL ENABLE,
"master" NUMBER(4,0) DEFAULT 0,
PRIMARY KEY ("computerSoftware_id")
My Trigger looks like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER "CIMS"."TR_CompSoftware_ID"
BEFORE INSERT ON CIMS."computerSoftware"
REFERENCING OLD AS OLD NEW AS NEW
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF (:new.computerSoftware_id IS NULL) then
SELECT S_CompSoftware_ID.NEXTVAL
INTO :new.computerSoftware_id
FROM dual;
end IF;
END;
And finally, here is my sequence:
CREATE SEQUENCE "CIMS"."S_CompSoftware_ID" MINVALUE 1
MAXVALUE 999999999999999999999999999 INCREMENT BY 1 START WITH 1 CACHE 10 NOORDER NOCYCLE
When I try to save the trigger I receive the following error:
PLS-00049: bad bind variable 'NEW.COMPUTERSOFTWARE_ID'
Any help is much appreciated!

CG$CTRL Bad Bind Variable error Migrating from Forms 4.5 to Forms 6

Hi All,
I have an old application deployed using Forms 4.5 runtime that I would like to migrate to the latest version of Forms.
My intended migration path was Forms 4.5 -> Forms 6i -> Forms 10g.
After successfully converting the source 4.5 .pll library files to Forms 6i by opening the files in the Forms 6i Forms Builder (6.0.8.25) and then saving the library files in the FORMS60_PATH I now encounter the following error that is hindering the migration process:
Error 49 at line 6, column 3
bad bind variable 'CG$CTRL.SE_CODE'
I have read some other posts that mention Headstart Templates. Does anyone know if these CG$xxxx program units are part of Headstart? And if so, how can I get the Template files?
Thanks in advance,
Gary.

CG$CTRL are cerated when the forms are developed using the designer...
Oracle Forms requires that every item in a form must belong to a block, but these generated non-base table items are not associated with any module component. There is therefore no repository definition of a data block to which the generated items can belong.
Form Generator resolves this situation by creating a control block to which the generated non-base table items can belong. The generated block is given the name CG$CTRL.
The CG$CTRL block has no physical representation in the generated form and has none of the properties (e.g. block decoration) associated with generated data blocks. The CG$CTRL block is simply a logical object to which generated
So try to find out in which form the above procedure /program unit is being called and then modify the pll accordingly....
