You should put this code at the place where you want to appear the called form. that is the child/first form.
if you want to call the form on button click, place the code in when-button-pressed trigger of the respective button in the first form.

Calling a Report from a Form

I have uploaded my form to the app server and compiled to Linux. I have copied my RDF file to the reports_path/demo directory. I can run the report via a link from our portal using the URL as follows:
/reports/rwservlet?report=IndRpt.rdf&desformat=pdf&destype=cache&userid=' target="_blank"
That opens the report in a separate window, which is what we want. So far, so good.
I can run the form via a link from our portal as well using the URL as follows:
/forms/frmservlet?config=bsc_ind
The config section hides all the form parameters very nicely.
In the portal, I created a Report Server Access portlet, REP_OMHAST2_MIDTIER, and use the following set_report_object calls in my form:
repid := find_report_object('IndRep');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'PDF');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_omhast2_midtier');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,ls_param);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
/*Display report in the browser*/
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://omhast2.omh.state.ny.us:7777/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=rep_omhast2_midtier ','_blank');
All that comes right out of the white paper.
Now here's the weird part, I have never seen this before. When I click my "Show Report" button in my form, the report seems to be running, but then I get a very strange dark grey, square icon superimposed over my mouse pointer. The icon has a small yellow "starburst" pattern with a tiny red exclamation point inside. The report does not appear on screen.
Incidentally, all of this works correctly when I run the same scenario on my workstation using the call to rwserver as: rwserver server=rep_omhast2_midtier. But when we port it to the app server, it does not run. I think it has to be in the way the form calls the report because the report will run as a stand-alone object.
Anything apparent to anyone out there?

Well, it looks like I stumped the band. And with good reason. Sorry for the error. The problem was that the user running the form and the report had a pop-up blocker that was blocking the report. The form and the report ran from another machine. I allowed pop-ups from the report's URL and that enabled the report to appear.
So, here we have another example of how to call a report from a form. Again, I am sorry for any angst this may have caused.

URGENT!!! calling crystal reports from oracle forms 10g

Is it possible to call crystal reports from oracle forms 10g?
Can someone help to answer how, if there is a solusion, to call crystal reports from oracle forms 10g.
Please provide codes with details showing step by step.
Thanks

hi
try something like this.
DECLARE
charWinHandle VARCHAR2(50);
numWinHandle NUMBER;
BEGIN Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'BUSY');
charWinHandle := Get_Item_Property('Control.Rep',Window_Handle);
numWinHandle := To_Number(charWinHandle);
:Item('Control.CrystalReport1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.WindowParentHandle
:= numWinHandle;
:Item('Control.CrystalReport1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.WindowState := 2;
:Item('CONTROL.CRYSTALREPORT1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.Connect
:= 'DSN=;UID=' || Get_Application_Property(UserName) ||
';pwd=' || Get_Application_Property(password) || ';dsq=;';
Crystal_CrystalCtrl.ReportFileName( :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').interface,
'C:\Sample_Rep.Rpt' );
Set_Window_Property( Forms_Mdi_Window, Window_State,Maximize );
Set_Window_Property( 'MAIN', Window_State, Maximize );
:reptitle := 'Report Preview Window';
numWinHandle := Crystal_CrystalCtrl.PrintReport( :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').interface );
Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'DEFAULT');
END;NOTE: Change the report name and path according to your required file name and path in
the "Crystal_CrystalCtrl.ReportFileName" method call. Also, the connection string shown
assumes that you will use the current USER and PASSWORD for the Form.
- To make the above Form generic so that you can run any Crystal report from it, then create
a parameter for the report name and pass it to the Form using CALL_FORM from any other Form.
Then just replace the file name with the passed parameter.
-. Run the Form
If its correct/helpful please mark it thanks.

Calling 10g Report from 6i Form

A 6i client-server form has a call to a 10g report in the form of a URL.
The HOST command calls Internet Explorer and with the URL appended. This, however, keeps the form locked until IE is closed.
Is there a way around this or a better way to call a URL from 6i Forms?
Thank you.

Found an example. It seems to work fine.
I believe this is replaced in Forms 10g by web.show_document though.
win_api_shell.winexec(vcCommand, WIN_API.SW_SHOWNORMAL, FALSE);

Calling Sql*Loader from oracle Form builder

How do i call sql* loader from my forms to import the external data in different formats into my existing database?
Specify the flexibility of sql* loader to import external data from .txt files or .xls files.
Would be thankful if certain examples are given along with the answer.

Hi,
1. First you have to create seperate ctl (Control files) which maps to different file formats
2. Using Oracle Forms,
2a) You can use the 'HOST' command to execute the command line ie. In this case executing
SQL*Loader script
2b) You also have the feature in ORACLE forms to read text files and load the data into
ORACLE db.
This can be achieved by using TEXT_IO package which comes with ORACLE Forms.
Hope this helps

Calling another program from the current program

Hi all,
In our requirement we are calling another program from our current program .
In the current program( from which we are calling ) we are giving file name in the selection screen
and when we run the current program we are successfully going to other program but our main requirement is to higlight the file name which we had given earlier .
Note : The called program doesnt have any selection screen.

HI
use EXPORT and IMPORT key words for passing data from one program to another program.
as the called program is available in the same session you can use above key words which means you are accessing ABAP MEMORY.
You can also use SET and GET key words which means SAP memory
take F1 help there are examples tooo and detailes explanation abou the same

How to access objects in the Child Form from Parent form.

I have a requirement in which I have to first open a Child Form from a Parent Form. Then I want to access objects in the Child Form from Parent form. For example, I want to insert a record into a block present in Child Form by executing statements from a trigger present in Parent Form.
I cannot use object groups since I cannot write code into Child Form to first create object groups into Child Form.
I have tried to achieved it using the following (working of my testcase) :
1) Created two new Forms TESTFORM1.fmb (parent) and TESTFORM2.fmb (child).
2) Created a block named BLK1 manually in TESTFORM1.
3) Created two items in BLK1:
1.PJC1 which is a text item.
2.OPEN which is a push button.
4) Created a new block using data block wizard for a table EMPLOYEE_S1. Created items corresponding to all columns present in EMPLOYEE_S1 table.
5) In WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger of TESTFORM1 set the first navigation block to BLK1. In BLK1 first navigable item is PJC1.
6) In WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE of PJC1, code has been written to automatically execute the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger for the "Open" button.
7) In WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger of OPEN item, TESTFORM2 is opened using the following statement :
open_form(‘TESTFORM2',no_activate,no_session,SHARE_LIBRARY_DATA);
Since its NO_ACTIVATE, the code flows without giving handle to TESTFORM2.
8) After invoking OPEN_FORM, a GO_FORM(‘TESTFORM2’) is now called to set the focus to TESTFORM2
PROBLEM AT HAND
===============
After Step 8, I notice that it passes the focus to TESTFORM2, and statements after go_form (in Parent Form trigger) doesnot executes.
I need go_form with no_activate, similar to open_form.
Edited by: harishgupt on Oct 12, 2008 11:32 PM

isn't it easier to find a solution without a second form? If you have a second window, then you can navigate and code whatever you want.
If you must use a second form, then you can handle this with WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED and meta-data, which you have to store in global variables... ( I can give you hints if the one-form-solution is no option for you )

How can I embed an DOCTYPE HTML Form from Adobe Forms central into a responsive html5 page?
-Luis

Hi,
You can embed the form on your website, but you need to make sure that javascript has been enabled in the browser. You need to copy the embed code and add it into your HTML code. If you would like FormsCentral to generate embeded HTML form without using javascript, you may post a feature request and vote it. Hope it helps! Thanks!

Hi
Because the statament CALL TRANSACTION triggers the end of the LUW so COMMIT WORK, so you should be sure not to insert that statament while some updating actions are been doing.
So that exit shouldn't be triggered while updating

Calling another form when current form is in query mode

I have a form that is in query mode. When I select a menu option that calls another form through new_form, I get the error 'FRM-41009: Function key not allowed. Press Ctrl+F1 for list of valid keys.'
I would like trap this error, cancel the query and invoke the new form. I have tried to do this by code similar to this:
if :system.mode = 'enter-query' then
exit_form ;
end if ;
new_form('someform') ;
(since exit_form in query mode is supposed to cancel the query).
But in this case, the trigger ends with the execution of the 'exit_form' statement.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Rajesh Jayaprakash

I think the following will work:
When you call the EXIT_FORM builtin, Forms cancels out of Query Mode but also stops the current PL/SQ execution - which is annoying.
I believe, though, that the WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED trigger will fire on your Form. Therefore, you can:
1) Set a Global Variable or PL/SQL packaged variable just before you call the EXIT_FORM builtin then
2) Test the value of the Global Variable in the WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED trigger and perform the CALL_FORM there.
3) Even better, put the CALL_FORM and associated parameters into a Program Unit on the Form - then you can call it from either the original trigger or the WWA trigger as necessary.
If this does not work, you could resort to:
1) Set a Global Variable just before you call the EXIT_FORM builtin
2) Initiate a TIMER
3) Call the EXIT_FORM builtin
4) In a WHEN-TIMER-EXPIRED trigger, check the value of the Global variable. If it's set, Call the Form you want to call
5) Again, put the actual CALL_FORM in a Program Unit so it can easily be called with the correct parameters from wherever you need to call it.
It's annoying that you need to go to these lengths to perform what seems to be such an easy task!
If anyone knows any better ways of achieving this, please add another reply!

How to call a form from one form to another form with parameter..

i'm having a from that will shows the info about the orders that the client has. and i want to show the information of the client. for that i have created one form and i want to call the form from my current form with the given client name as a parameter. then the client_info form has to query with the given parameter. so im passing the :client_order_info.client_name as parameter to the call_form('client_info.fmx',:client_order_info.client_name); but my question is how to access that parameter in the client_info form.. plz help me.. i tried a lot ..

Create a parameter (object navigator -> parameters) with the name client_name and you can access that value in your client info form using :PARAMETER.client_name.
P.S. while calling you can pass parameter using 'cilent_name =>' to make sure that the correct parameter is getting assigned to the value.
