Call Oracle forms from VB application

Hi
How can call Oracle Forms 4.5 from a VB application. Also Is it possible to return values back to the calling VB application. Please advice.
Regards..
Venkatesh

In which case I would suggest you go to 10g or 11g of Forms since 6 is no longer supported.

    open required Orcale form.How can I DO this.PLEASE HELP............
    Regards

    You have the command in VB 6.0 to run any exe files right (I think it is the system command). Next to that command place the following code to run your forms application
    ifrun60.EXE <forms.fmx with complete path> userid=<username>/<password>@<connection string>.

  • Call Oracle form from pl/sql

    Dear All
    How can I call Oracle form from pl/sql and open this form to end user
    many thanks

    how can I show this form to specific client ?What client?!? Database PL/SQL is executed within a process on the database server, it's not something which is executed on the client. Could you please elaborate a little bit more?
    By now I have not the faintest clue if you want to
    - call a form from another form ( call_form )
    - call a form within a database process (?!?)
    - call your form from a client you did not tell us (probably APEX?!?)
    For the case you really meant to call a form within Database PL/SQL: Just in case you didn't recognize it, but the database is perfectly capable of PL/SQL and as calling a form within a database process is a one-way street as you cannot interact with it there is no point at all in writing the things you want to do in forms. If you want some PL/SQL code executed on the database then...well...put it in a stored procedure in the database!

  • Calling Oracle Forms from ADF - refresh problem makes it unusable!

    Hi everybody!
    I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4.0 and I need to call an Oracle form (Forms 10g) inside my ADF application. I did exactly what explained in the Oracle doc at this link
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/adf/wilfred-adf-forms-099635.html
    and it works fine. I've put the code inside a region that is in a tab page of my ADF application. The problem is that EVERYTHING I do outside that form (changing tab page, pressing a button,...) makes the page refresh and my form resets (actually it's the applet that reloads).
    How can I avoid this? Is there any way to make the form stay alive even if ADF events trigger? As it is now launching a form inside ADF is completely useless.
    I posted this question also in the JDeveloper forum but nobody is answering so maybe here someone can help.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestion
    Roberto

    In Forms 11g, you can set the following parameter in the Forms Server's formsweb.cfg configuration file "legacy_lifecycle=true", which will prevent the applet restarting when the ADF pages are in between page loads. However, I dont know if this exists in 10g Forms. Give it a try.
    Thanks,

  • Calling a Form from Report hyperlink  through parameters

    There is no built in mechanism to call Oracle Forms from Oracle Reports. Usually, customers want to call Reports from Forms which is a built-in feature of Forms using Run_report_object.

    Thanks for your reply. It would be very useful for customers like us, if Oracle can incorporate such a facility in the newer versions of Reports.

  • How to call a Oracle Form from within the APEX

    Hi,
    I have a requirment where need to call a oracle form from within the Oracle APEX application?
    I will appriciate if can someone help me out.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    are you working with Forms 6i or 10g?
    If you want to call a forms 10g page. Just use a button with javascript:
    - Target type: URL
    - URL Target: javascript:window.open ('http://<server>:<port>/forms/frmservlet?config=<conf>','Forms window');
    With Forms 6i you can open the directory where your forms file is inside (works just with IE):
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function fnc_window()  {w = open('C:\\FormsFiles', "winLov","scrollbars=yes,resizable=no,width=600,height=400");
    if (w.opener == null)
    w.opener = self;
    </script>Or execute the forms file with vbscript (IE only):
    <script language = "vbscript">
    sub fnc_forms()
    dim progName
    progName = "c:\FormsFiles\myForm.exe"
    set oShell = createobject("wscript.shell") 'create a shell
    '***use the line below to call your app, defined above with the "progName" variable:
    oShell.run(progName)
    end sub
    </script>

    Jitesh ([email protected])

    You can use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT with CACHE type, and WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to view the document on the screen.
    In the Forms help you should find examples.
    If you have access to Metalink, have a look at Note:207396.1.

  • How to call Oracle Form within Oracle Form?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to call a customized Oracle Form from standard Oracle Form (Special Information screen) and vice versa.
    Then need to display the person detail accordingly.
    Is it possible to be done? Appreciate guidance on this item.
    Thanks and Regards,
    SC

    Veerendra,
    Sounds like you are using the Oracle E-business Suite (EBS). If that is the case, opening a form is different in the EBS than it is in a non-EBS Forms application. You have the register the Custom Form in the EBS for starts.
    This question should be posted in the General EBS Discussion forum not here. Also, I recommend you take a look at the Oracle Applications Documentation and find the "Oracle Applications Developer's Guide".
