Calling A Window's Program From Webforms

Is it possible to call a windows EXE program (such as NOTEPAD,
WINWORD, EXCEL, etc) from forms6.0 running on the web? This
should preferably be calling the programs residing in the CLIENT
PC rather than the APP SERVER machine. I tried using both HOST
and DDE commands, but both activate the programs on the server
side, and that these programs are shown in the TASK MANAGER but
never appeared in focus on the screen. Can someone please help?
Thanks.
Kelvin.

  • Is it possible to call a windows batch file from PL/SQL

    Hi gurus,

    Hi!
    Youn need some extproc related entries in you listener.ora and tnsnames.ora file.
    *1. In the listener.ora:*
    Defining the listener process is done in two parts.
    The information contained in each listener differs!!!
    The first part is as follows:
    LISTENER =
      (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
        (DESCRIPTION =
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = extproc))  <---  *ADD THIS LINE
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = yourhostname)(PORT = 1521))
      )The seoncd part is as follows:
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
      (SID_LIST = 
        (SID_DESC =
          (GLOBAL_DBNAME = YOUR_GLOBAL_DBNAME)
          (ORACLE_HOME = c:\oracle\product\10.2.0)  <-- THIS IS YOUR ORACLE_HOME
          (SID_NAME = YOUR_SID)                            <-- SID
        (SID_DESC =                                              <--- ADD THIS LINE
          (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)                          <--- ADD THIS LINE
          (ORACLE_HOME = c:\oracle\product\10.2.0) <--- ADD THIS LINE AND EDIT TO YOUR ORACLE_HOME
          (PROGRAM = extproc)                                <--- ADD THIS LINE
          (ENV = "EXTPROC_DLLS=ANY")                  <--- ADD THIS LINE
        )                                                                <--- ADD THIS LINE
      )*2. In the tnsnames.ora you need to add the following entry:*
    *(The KEY value entered must be match to the KEY value entered int the listener.ora file!)*
    EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS_LIST =
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = extproc))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SID = PLSExtProc)
          (PRESENTATION = RO)
      )Finally you need to restart your listiner. After restarting there will be a service called "PLSExtProc" in your listener.
    This are only examples for extproc configuration, your tnsnames.ora and listener.ora can be differs.
    FIRST MAKE MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR ORIGINAL tnsnames.ora AND listener.ora FILES
    For more information please check metalink note 68061.1 "EXTPROC: Creating External Procedures on Windows NT"

    You didn't specify a database version, but if you are 10g or higher, it's quite straightforward using an external job type in DBMS_SCHEDULER. Funnily enough i'm looking at something similar myself at the moment.

  • Problem in calling order import concurrent program from BPEL

    Hi all,
    Iam doing a sales order creation in oracle apps using Apps Adapter.
    I have successfully inserted the order into the interface tables using an Apps adapter.
    Now I need to run Order Import program from BPEL to move the data from interface tables to the base tables for which i use another Apps Adapter.
    When I invoke the OEIMP concurrent program from BPEL ,request id is returned.But the concurrent program fails showing incomplete parameters.
    But it works when I invoke it from the front end in oracle apps.
    I think the problem lies in passing the inputs to the concurrent program from the BPEL.
    Any help to solve the issue will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    goutam

    Previously, I was passing the values to the concurrent program variables through ASSIGN component,which resulted in some namespace issues.Then I replaced it with TRANSFORM component.
    Also,First I assigned the values to the concurrent program variables as 'Vision Operations'(operating_unit), 'Online'(order_source) ,No (validate_only), No (validate_desc_flex) which are mandatory and just left non mandatory variables without assigning values.
    I changed those values as *'204','0','N','N'*. And also set non mandatory variables value as EMPTY.
    After doing all these I found the concurrent program catches all the parameter values correctly, and the records got imported from interface tables to the base tables.Thus the sales order got created successfully.
    Thanks,

  • How to call  Screen in another program from exsisting program

    Hello Frieds,
    Can any one help me how to call  a screen  in another program (Say "test2") from exsisting program(say "test1')
    If above case is possible then how to access the fields in the target screen?
    Your responce is greatly appreciated.
    Best Regards,
    Rakesh

    Hi Rakesh,
    If you wish to use ONLY the screen of another program, call transaction  will not help you, because the called transaction will be fully executed (and not only the screen), and the acess to screen field wil be difficult.
    When you wish to access the same screen from more than one program, you can create this screen in a function module and in this way you can call the function (to display the screen) in many programs.
    Best regards,

  • Calling an RPG (AS400) program from a Session Bean

    Hi, does anyone know if there is a kind of connector that makes possbile to call an RPG program in an AS400 host from a session bean, allowing the application server (i.e. : JBoss or WAS or WLB) to maintain the transaction ?

    Yes, it is called "AS/400 Toolbox for Java".

  • How do I stop extra windows or programs from opening automatically when I access my Applications folder via Finder?

    Each time I access my Applications folder via Finder, a bunch of ejectable windows or previously downloaded programs open up on the desktop. I have ejected each one or placed it in the trash, but it still happens. How do I stop this from happening?

    I asked the same question on Yahoo! Answers, and I was advised to reinstall Firefox, which I have just done (with version 3.6.8). The problem seems to be solved. Prior to doing this, I attempted to uninstall my previous version, but Control Panel wouldn't let me do this, nor would Windows Explorer allow me to send the whole Mozilla Firefox folder to the Recycle Bin. I went to Plan C, which was to delete all the subfolders in the main folder, followed by the leftover files, and finally empty the Recycle bin. Then I used Internet Explorer to download the newer version of Firefox, and installed it. No more extra home pages, so far.

  • Calling JCO RFC Server program from JCO RFC client

    Hi,
    I have an RFC registered server program which implements JCO.Server.  It seems to be working fine, when called from SAP.
    For testing purposes, I was trying to write a JCO client program which would take the place of the SAP client.
    This program opens a connection to the RFC server and executes a function e.g.
    JCO.Client client = JCO.createClient("xx.yy.com", "sapgw35", "MYPROGID");
    client.connect();
    client.execute(function);
    The RFC server program receives the call fine, when I test with a simple function which has no table parameters.  However when I tried a more complex function with table parameters, I get an serverExceptionOccurred from the RFC server program:
    com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (104) RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE: connection closed without message (CM_NO_DATA_RECEIVED)
        at com.sap.mw.jco.rfc.MiddlewareRFC$Server.nativeListen(Native Method)
        at com.sap.mw.jco.rfc.MiddlewareRFC$Server.listen(MiddlewareRFC.java:1368)
        at com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Server.listen(JCO.java:6805)
    I have tried to initialize the repositories in both server and client programs correctly, so that the function is in the cached function list and the table structures in the cached structures list before the function is invoked.  But I am not sure if there is still something I am missing, so any ideas would be welcome.
    Thanks,
    Richard

    JCO example 5 is a very good one for server side programming.
    try the example,somethings you 'd better make clear.
    1) JCO.server
    2) repositories--data mapping
    3) parameters: export import,table...
    further topic:
    1) JCO pool
    2) tRFC,qRFC
    After you have success in Client side programming,try example 5.

  • Open in new tab on right click fails to open in the current window when used in a dependent window called with window.open command from original window this worked fine until ver 4.0

    i have been using this page in all versions of firefox until ver 4.0 and it has worked fine
    https://npwas.com/dummy/charts/charts.html
    when this page is loaded enter a stock symbol in the text field "AAPL"
    then click one of the lower links --"Yahoo Headlines"-- and another window is opened with this code
    - function yahoolink(sqlstring, winnum) {
    - var myurl = "http://finance.yahoo.com/";
    - var mysymbol = document.SymbolForm.symbol.value;
    - var mysrc = myurl + sqlstring + mysymbol;
    - var mywindow = "mywindow" + winnum;
    - //alert("mywindow- " + mywindow);
    - if (sqlstring == "mb/")
    - mysrc = "http://messages.finance.yahoo.com/" + -sqlstring + mysymbol;
    window.open(mysrc,mywindow,'resizable=yes,titlebar1=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1');
    all this works but when i right click on a message or news item and select "OPEN IN NEW TAB" - it fails to open the tab in this current window it opens it in the parent window --
    the way i have always used this is to able to select news and right click all news items to read as new tabs and have all news items or messages to be grouped in the child window
    this is now broken or do i need to recode something??
    https:\\npwas.com come is my secure server and you may load the page and see the code
    so far i really love ver 4.0 especially the sppppppeeeeeeeeed!!!!
    keep up the great work
    thanx in advance

    1. Install the Menu Editor add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ .
    2. After the installation, go to Firefox> add-ons (or simply use Ctrl+Shift+A)
    3. Go to the Menu Editor "Options"
    4. In the "Main context menu," simply grab the "Open link in New Tab" and place it below the "Open Link in New Window"
    5. and Voila! You may also change other menu options if you want to!
    I tried jay_ff method first and found that indeed changing the Main Context Menu did cause the hotlink context menu to change as well.

  • Call a windows PB app from a linux/php website

    Sorry for the oddball question.
    We have a website built on a Linux / PHP stack and we'd like to be able to call a function in a PB application (passing data) and get return data (possibly a blob).
    I've done the opposite, have PB make a web service call using MSXML.XMLHTTP, but is there any way to do the reverse?
    TIA,
    Steve Woitkowski

    Hi Steve;
      Hmmm ... that's a weird error.
       I use PB 12.1 and 12.5.1 all the time to build & test my current web services on W7, W8, W2008R2 and W2012 and they all work great the 1st time. I even test the WS's using PB 12.6 as well because of my WS Framework I hoist on SourceForge.
      Ahhhh ... Now I see - you are using PB.Net whereas I am using PB Classic to build my WS components. Your error is from the WCF realm which indicates to me that PB.Net may not be deploying the WS's properly or its not configured properly in IIs.  
    1) Anything strange in the PB.Net build logs?
    2) Is your WS just a simple (ie: Hello World) test?
    3) Can you run the WS through the MS.Net test bench?
    4) Have you tried using the WCF Test Client utility?
    Regards ... Chris

  • Problem with a call to a concurrent program from a trigger body...

    I have a table and a before update trigger on it.
    The trigger calls a packaged procedure. that submits a concurrent request.
    This concurrent request calls a packaged procedure.
    This packaged procedure inserts data into another table and then commits the insert.
    When I update the table with the trigger on it, (the above narrated scenario)....
    I come up with the error...
    ORA-04092: cannot SET SAVEPOINT in a trigger
    I didnt use any savepoint in my code.
    Any help is appreciated. Its a high priority issue.
    Thnx,
    Kiran

    You problem is that the standard PL/SQL code to submit a concurrent request (which is presumably what you are running) performs the savepoint, unless you have told it you are running from a database trigger. The processing performed by the concurrent request when it runs is not relevant to the processing of the trigger.
    We have code that submits a concurrent request successfully from a trigger, but before the call to FND_Request.Submit_Request, we call FND_Request.Set_Mode(TRUE) which tells the processing in FND_Request.Submit_Request that we are running from a database trigger and not to perform it's savepoint processing.

  • HELP!....GUI crashes when i call a multi-threaded program from it

    Hi..I have encountered a problem in my end of year project, which i cant see to solve. The problem is i am starting a multi-threaded program for a JButton on a GUI. All though this starts the other program it crashes the GUI completely how do i stop this.
    this is the code i use to call the threaded program.
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
    Object target=e.getSource();
    String line = new String();
    if( target==b1 )
         try
    cl = new client();
         cl.startup();
         catch(Exception ex){ex.printStackTrace();}
    thanks Mike

    No there is no exceptions being given. this is one of the reasons why i dont no what to do. i thought myself that the threaded was taking all the resources and not going back to the GUI. if this is the case is there anyway that i can call back the GUI and keep the threaded program running?
    thanks
