Calendar utility

Good afternoon;
I hope this finds you well;
I need your help in activating the calendar itility for date fields when the form is in ENTER-QUERY mode.
Why is the calendar utility disable when a form is in ENTER-QUERY mode?
Thank you,
Michel Turcot

In ENTER-QUERY mode a GO_BLOCK() built-in cannot be used - GO_BLOCK('CALENDAR').
This is the reason why the calendar utility is disabled when a form is in ENTER-QUERY mode.

Java beans for calendar utility

Hii Javaities
I need to have calendar in my jsp for choosing dates
Earlier i was uisng javascript for calendar but now i want to use Java beans .
Can i use Java beans for calendar ?
Are there any tag libraries for tht ?

PDAs ? hmm...sounds interesting
what technology have u thought of using for your application ?
java microedition ...[certainly not c++ or .net] ?
Is it going to be a stand alone application on a PDA .
OR
Are you thinking of wireless internet connectivity to the PDA? In this case your application might have to be designed strickly so that it fits the screen size.
How about a tablet PC? It good for mobile computing and is handy too.

I have recently upgraded to mountain lion and I can not get the calendar application to work. I con appears on the side put on calendars. Any suggestions

I have recently upgrades to Mountain Lion and I can not get the calendar utility to come alive. Icon appears in the tast bar but the application does not launch or appear to be any where else. Any suggestion?

Did you look in the Applications folder for Calendar? If it is there, remove the item that is in the Dock and replace it by dragging the Calendar application to the Dock.
If it is not there, did you have iCal located somewhere other than the Applications folder when you upgraded?

Calendar enter query mode problem

I have successfully implemented the calendar utility supplied by
the demo.
However, has anyone figured out how to use it when in
enter-query mode? It doesn't work because you can't navigate
out of current block when in enter_query mode.

In your Exit button's WBP trigger, do this:If :System.mode = 'ENTER-QUERY' then
Exit_Form;
End if;
Exit_Form(No_Validate);To get the button to work while the form is in enter-query mode, it must be in the same block as the one being queried, or else you must set its Mouse Navigate property to No.

Anyone has experience syncrhonizing Oracle Calendar to ClearSync Palm Cal

Hello, I have a user who is using ClearSync on their Treo 650 (this is a 3rd party calendaring utility that allows you to have multiple calendars on your Treo) and this user needs to synchronize their ClearSync calendar with their Oracle Calendar. Any experience with that, and how to get that done. This would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Pierre.

Desktop Manager cleared all Calendar entries.

Hello,
I installed the latest version of Desktop Manager on my new laptop and was checking it out when I pressed the clear button in the Advanced Backup / Restore screen. It was at the time on the Calendar line so it cleared all the entries in the Calendar. No "Are you sure?" no nothing! Just cleared it....
As my previous laptop was really really slow, my last backup is from February. So before I restore that one, does anyone know of a way to "undelete" the entries? Seeing the speed at which the Desktop Manager cleared it, I was wondering if it didn't simply set the nuber of entries to 0 but didn't actually delete anything. Could that be reset?
Any help / clues would be really appreciated as this little device is my whole life!!
Many thanks.

I also recently started having the problem described above. The Calendar events stopped showing on the Today screen using any of my Today themes. I have a Blackberry Curve 8330 using the 4.5 OS.
I found that a Google calendar utility was running. I deleted it and then went to Options-->Advanced-->Default Services. The Calendar setting (CICAL) had been changed to point to my Google email account rather then my Yahoo email account. I changed it back to Yahoo and the problem disappeared on all Today themes. The calendar events were now showing on the Today screen.
I haven't installed anything lately so what I am guessing happened in my case has to do with the QuickPull utility for soft resetting the system. Recently, the free version of the program has started displaying ads following the reset. If you are not careful to tab to 'OK' you might install whatever is being pushed. I am guessing that I did exactly that and just didn't notice it. The Google app installed itself as a startup program and was probably responsible for changing my Calendar CICAL option.
There is no need to use the Blackberry Desktop manager when doing the above corrections and a reset is not required.
Hope this helps somebody out there.

Deviation in oracle 10g

Dear all,
how would we do deviation in oracle 10 g?
i search some links, they said for a folder name oraclehome\ocommon and lnt files, but i did'nt find it.
Thanks

sorry EdStevens
may be i am mis-spelling the word DEVIATION, somehow, for example,
i am here in saudi arabia, i need the saudi arabia governament calendar in the forms.
the saudi arabia local calendar is OMMOL QORA.
when i select this type of calendar, some dates are missing, because the OMMOL QORA calendar is
working on moon. so some months may have 29 days and some have 30.
Since Hijrah month is based on the moon complete revolution around the sun, Hijrah
Calendar has different number of days in a year than Gregorian; therefore some manual
deviation adjustement might be needed for the conversion to/from Gregorian. In other
words HIJRAH calendar is Lunar based, corrections need to be made every so often.
oracle give a solution for that which is called deviation. it is ;
Edit/create lxecal.nlt a file which is called lxecal.nlt , put it into for Oracle 8 up to 9i $ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls
for Oracle 10g and up $ORACLE_HOME/nls
shutdown the database
do correction to the deviation file, an example is available on
[http://www.club-oracle.com/forums/nls-setting-in-oracle-10g-database-t1370/]
Run the NLS Calendar Utility lxegen to register your modification to Oracle calendar
system, this utility generates lxecalah.nlb file in the same directory mentioned above.
startup the database.
Best Regards

Is any one using nls_calendar='Arabic Hijrah'? Its working fine but the only problem that we are facing is, oracle shows arabic date which is exactly less than one day of arabic date. i.e. if arabic data is 14th, oracle shows 13th. Any one have idea about this? I heard the same problem from so many people, is there any solution for this.
thanks in advance

Questions & Answers
1.How to set Calendar to "Arabic Hijrah" ?
Answer
Set NLS_CALENDAR parameter in one of the following ways:
1. In the Current session :
SQL> alter session set NLS_CALENDAR="Arabic Hijrah" ;
2. All applications for a specific client:
Set NLS_CALENDAR Variable in client OS environment.
<e.g: On NT: set variable in the registry
On Unix: set UNIX environment variable in .profile/.cshrc>
3. Within SQL function:
SQL> select to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''arabic hijrah''')
from dual ;
References
Note 30772.1 Init.ora Parameter "NLS_CALENDAR" Reference Note
2.How to display both Hijrah and Gregorian dates in the same select statement?
Answer
select
to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''Arabic Hijrah'''),
to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''English Hijrah'''),
to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''gregorian''')
from dual ;
to make things a bit more clear:
alter session set nls_calendar = 'Arabic Hijrah';
gives the names of the Hijrah months in Arabic
so you client needs to be configured to display Arabic. -> Note 179133.1
alter session set nls_calendar = 'English Hijrah';
gives the names of the Hijrah months in english.
alter session set nls_calendar = 'gregorian';
gives the names of the Gregorian months (jan-feb-etc).
If you want the names of the Gregorian months in Arabic then please

4.How to set deviation?
Answer
1. Shutdown the database
2. Edit/create lxecal.nlt (lxecal.dat in Oracle7) in
for Oracle 8 up to 9i $ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls
for Oracle 10g and up $ORACLE_HOME/nls
In 8i and 9i you a example file in the 'demo' directory $ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls/demo
In 10g this demo file is not shipped, you can simply create on or copy the demo file from
a 9i or 8i installation.
This example makes the known adjustments needed between Gregorian
years 2000 and 2004:

Notes: * Gregorian date specified in the deviation should correspond to one of
29th, 30th or 31th days of the hijrah calendar.
* Numbers greater than 10 are used to subtract days, e.g:
11 --> subtract one day, 12 --> subtract two days ...etc

You need Patch 9204 or higher to be able to adjust the calendar.
There are also these backports:

This is also fixed in 10g and up
5. Adding ONE day in the lxecal.nlt gives TWO days added. How to workaround?
Answer
SQL> alter session set nls_calendar = 'Gregorian';
SQL> select d from d;
D
07/06/05
08/06/05
SQL> alter session set nls_calendar = 'English Hijrah';
SQL> select d from d;
D
29 Rabi' Thani 1426
01 Jamada El Oula 1426
07/06/05 needs to be 30 Rabi' Thani 1426
so you add this to the lxecal.nlt
     DEFINE calendar
calendar_name = "English Hijrah"
     DEFINE calendar_deviation
deviation_data = {
                         <"Jun-07-2005 ad">:1
ENDDEFINE calendar_deviation
ENDDEFINE calendar
and run lxegen
SQL> select d from d;
D
01 Jamada El Oula 1426
02 Jamada El Oula 1426
* the date is now 2 days further!!! this is due rounding problems in the algorithm
used for the calendar conversion a workaround is to substract FIRST one day in lxecal.nlt
     DEFINE calendar
calendar_name = "English Hijrah"
     DEFINE calendar_deviation
deviation_data = {
                         <"Jun-07-2005 ad">:11
                         <"Jun-07-2005 ad">:1
ENDDEFINE calendar_deviation
ENDDEFINE calendar
and run lxegen, this gives:
SQL> select d from d;
D
30 Rabi' Thani 1426
01 Jamada El Oula 1426
make sure that you substract first (= ":11") and then add (= ":1")
in the lxecal.nlt for the date

Alert Log Content

Hello!!!
I want to see the alert log content for a specific date. But whenever I select a date window (date from.... date until) using the calendar utility there is none to be displayed!!!!
Without search criteria the utility displays the last 10000 lines of the alert log content.
Why this happens????
Simon

Hi ,
When I say 'a window (date from... date to)' I mean a date period for example 01/01/2006 until 03/01/2006.
On Enterprise Manager Console 10g there is the capability to select this date period using the built-in calendar (on right of each text item where I can write down the dates (begin/end date)).
The answer you gave me means that I cannot search the log file content giving specific criteria , as I want?
Thanks for your help !!!

Since Hijrah month is based on the moon complete revolution around the sun, Hijrah

deviation adjustement might be needed for the conversion to/from Gregorian. In other
words HIJRAH calendar is Lunar based, corrections need to be made every so often.
4.How to set deviation?
Answer
1. Shutdown the database
2. Edit lxecal.nlt (lxecal.dat in Oracle7) in $ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls.
e.g: to add one day after Sep-29-2000:
DEFINE calendar
calendar_name = "Arabic Hijrah"
DEFINE calendar_deviation
deviation_data = {
<"Sep-29-2000 ad">:1
ENDDEFINE calendar_deviation
ENDDEFINE calendar
Note: Gregorian date specified in the deviation should correspond to one of
29th, 30th or 31th days of the hijrah calendar.
3. Run the NLS Calendar Utility lxegen to register your modification to Oracle calendar
system, this utility generates lxecalah.nlb file in the same directory mentioned above.
4. startup the database.
The same procedure can be followed to subtract days, but number specified in the
deviation_data should be greater than 10.
<e.g: 11 --> subtract one day, 12 --> subtract two days ...etc>

FINAL CUT "HIDING" & NOT COMING BACK??

How come when my FCP "hides" it does not reappear. I can not save or anything, its very frustrating!! I have to force quit and then reopen my project whether it was saved or not! why does this happen?
i've had this happen intermittently before and i never knew the reason.
please help!
thx
seth shapiro

it ABSOLUTELY should not be happening and it is ABSOLUTELY a problem, but one of the things that WE could be doing here is to figure out if there are other similarities in our systems.
one of my observations over the years is to remember that in a computer system "everything effects everything"... so you may think that some 3rd party calendar utility "shouldn't" effect my Final Cut application not returning from being Hidden, but it may, you never know... (BTW... I have no idea if I should be using "effect" or "affect"... I'm not a writer)
I have the same problem on one of the machines I cut on...
it has a Kona LE and a bunch of OWC ram we got almost 2 years ago
we also use Magic Bullet Looks.... that app takes over the screen so maybe it has some voodoo to it...
those are things that are unique about that system because the Hiding problem does not come up on any other systems...
Ok... thats my 2 cents... anyone else have any thoughts?

[Urgent] Need help calculating difference between two dates

I'm trying to write a code to display the current day and time, then accept two dates from the user and display the difference between the two dates. To display the current date and time, I've used the SimpleDateFormatter library but I'm having difficulty calculating the difference between two dates. Could someone please help me with this?
Below is my code so far
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
public class DateFormatter {
     public void displayNow()
          Date todaysDate = new Date();
          SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MMM-dd HH:mm:ss");
          String formattedDate = formatter.format(todaysDate);
          System.out.println("Today's date and time is: "+formattedDate);
     public void calculateDifference(Date startDate, Date endDate)
          /* This is whre i need help! */
     public static void main(String[] args)
          DateFormatter df = new DateFormatter();
          Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
          df.displayNow();
          System.out.println("Please enter a date: ");
          String date1 = sc.next();
          System.out.println("Please enter another date: ");
          String date2 = sc.next();
}The methods displayNow() and calculateDifference(Date startDate, Date endDate) are essential and cannot be skipped out.

Of course, it takes some time to learn what the intelligent questions are. You have my sympathy. Try asking questions about how to do a particular task, instead of asking people to tell you what to do. It starts to get easier after a while.
actually dude i started on this on monday.. but there were so many other stuff to do along with this.. and i did try referring up the Calendar utility but it was a bit confusing actually.. it was only after that did i come to this forum.. nor am i very good at Java.. anyhoo thanks for your sympathies :P
