Calling Data Forms from forms...

Ok, I'm getting frustrated and am sure is something simple i'm not doing, due to my lack of experience with jDeveloper.
My problem is this, if I call any form that has any type of data object on it from another form all I get is a blank form that is zero in height and width displayed.
However, if the form contains no data controls, the form displays fine.
Thanks in anticipation

Jeremy,
its easier to answer if you explain the usecase you are trying to implement and the technology you use (Swing, JSP, SF ?)

Calling Data Control from Session bean

Is it possible to use workshop data control from with in Session bean.

If the client code is located in the same "deployment unit" (e.g. EAR
file) as the EJBs, then you can pass the data by reference.
Serialization is required when crossing between deployment units. This
is required to support redeployment.

I recently downloaded WL6.0 and I noticed that when a
session bean returns data to its client, the data is
always serialized back the client -- EVEN it the client
is on the same machine. Ideally, I would prefer that a

Does the serialization occur because WL6.0 put session
beans in its own ClassLoader or does the serialization occur
because of the way WL6.0 compiles the RMI stubs? Thanks
for your response.

Error while calling a form from another form's menu item

I created a main form and menu module for this form.
I am calling another form from main form menu item.
i moved both the forms and menu and compiled them.
But, when i run this form i am getting an error saying
FRM 92100: Your connection to the server was interrupted
This may be the result of a network error, or a failure on the server.
You will need to establish your session.
I set the seperateframe = true
networkentries = 30
But still getting the same error.
Is there any parameter that i am missing.
I will greatly appreciate if anybody can direct me to the solution.
Thank you.
Navya.

Hi guest,
the data definition is:
DATA: XVBKD LIKE VBKDVB OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
the assignment:
XVBKD-PRSDT = likp-erdat.

Returning multiple values from a called tabular form(performance issue)

I hope someone can help with this.
I have a form that calls another form to display a multiple column tabular list of values(needs to allow for user sorting so could not use a LOV).
The user selects one or more records from the list by using check boxes. In order to detect the records selected I loop through the block looking for boxes checked off and return those records to the calling form via a PL/SQL table.
The form displaying the tabular list loads quickly(about 5000 records in the base table). However when I select one or more values from the table and return back to the calling form, it takes a while(about 3-4 minutes) to return to the called form with the selected values.
I guess it is going through the block(all 5000 records) looking for boxes checked off and that is what is causing the noticeable pause.
Is this normal given the data volumes I have or are there any other perhaps better techniques or tricks I could use to improve performance. I am using Forms6i.
Sorry for being so long-winded and thanks in advance for any help.

Try writing to your PL/SQL table when the user selects (or remove when deselect) by usuing a when-checkbox-changed trigger. This will eliminate the need for you top loop through a block with 5000 records and should improve your performance.
I am not aware of any performance issues with PL/SQL tables in forms, but if you still have slow performance try using a shared record-group instead. I have used these in the past for exactly the same thing and had no performance problems.
Hope this helps,

Passing a value for date parameter from Oracle Forms to BIP

Hi
I have created a report with the following SQL query:
select
d_tables.d_seq,
to_date(d_tables.d_created) creation_date,
d_tables.d_created_by created_by,
d_tables.d_pk,
d_tables.table_name,
d_tables.comments
from
d_tables, d_applications
where
d_tables.d_ppk = d_applications.d_pk
and to_date(d_tables.d_created) >= nvl(:P_CRE_DATE_FROM, to_date(d_tables.d_created))
and to_date(d_tables.d_created) <= nvl(:P_CRE_DATE_TO, to_date(d_tables.d_created))
The parameters P_CRE_DATE_FROM and P_CRE_DATE_TO have been set up as date in BI Publisher with format dd-MMM-yyyy
The report works fine when launched in BI Publisher.
I want to call this report from Oracle Forms and I'm trying to pass the values for both the parameters. However, the report does not generate output based on values passed.
Does it have to do with datatype? Does anyone know a solution for this?
Kind regards,
Aparna

Thanks for your suggestion. I am already referring to the whitepaper and have integrated Forms with BI Publisher. The parameter passing is working fine for a varchar2 type of parameter. However, for a date type, there seems to be some problem.

Calling a report from a form based on procedure

I created a form based on a procedure.
It is a entry form where the user is selecting or enters data then on submit I must display the report based on selected data.
I know I can simply create a report with all bind variable and do the job.
My question is what is the syntax to call the report from the procedure for the selected parameters values.
Thanks
Lawrence

If you want to display other HTML page after successful submission, you need to use
either go or call method.
I created a form on SCOTT.EMP and a report on SCOTT.EMP and the report accept a parameter for
the deptno. Here is my on successfull submission code:
declare
l_dept number;
l_url varchar2(2000);
begin
l_dept := p_session.get_value_as_number('DEFAULT', 'A_DEPTNO', 1);
l_url := 'scott.rpt_mask_1.show?p_arg_names=emp.deptno&p_arg_values='| |l_dept;
go(l_url);
end;

Problem with output from report to excel, calling the report from form 10g

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem generating a excel from a report, which is called from a form, I'm using Forms 10g. The problem is this: My report has a variable number of columns. These columns appear according to data obtained from the database, these columns are dates, In vesion 6 excel file generated shows the columns one after another starting in column A1 to column CP. I mean that the dates are correlative. But in version 10g the excel file generated shows the same report starting in column A to column T, only shows the 20 dates correlative corresponding to this columns, the rest of the dates are down the excel sheet in groups of 20 dates, it's something, the file in 6i grows across and in 10g grows down the excel sheet. The report (rdf file) is the same in 6i and 10g, I compiled the 6i version to obtain the 10g version. The excel sheet generated in 10g looks like the report was in pdf format, because PDF format, cuts the report in pages and the file grows down, if I generate the report in PDF format it has the same structure excel file in 10g has. I hope yo can help because I have days trying to solve this but I have no succes. If someone could help I could email the excel files generated in two versions. Here I put the code I use to generate the files in 6i and 10g. I have tried with DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET in 10g but the result is the same. Thanks for your help. Greetings for all.
Code for version 6i (Works Very well)

There are two problems with your VI. First, the basic logic of writing/appending to a file (Excel, TDMS, anything) should go something like this: Open the file, position yourself at the end of the file, then, in the loop, acquire data and write it to the file until you are finished with data acquisition. When you exit the acquire/write to file loop, then close the file. In particular, the opening and the closing of the file should not be inside the loop.
As others have pointed out, writing to Excel might not be optimal, particularly if you are acquiring data at a high rate (and would therefore be writing a lot of data). We actually use Excel in our data acquisition routine, mainly reading from a WorkSheet to get the parameters of a particular stimulus, but also writing the outcome of the response to the stimulus. As it happens, our "acquisition rate" in this example is on the order of several samples per minute, so there's no problem using Excel (we also sample 16 channels of analog data at 1 KHz -- this gets written as a binary file).
Second, if you really do want to use Excel, use the (existing) Excel file to which you want to append as the "template" argument of the New Report function. Then use the Excel Get Last Row function to position yourself at "end of file", as noted above.
Good Luck.

Calling a report from an existing form

hi all,
i am new to this forms and reports. i have created a report which gives information about an employee. and name it as activity report. i am using reports Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2. i have also created a form. my purpose is " i will enter the employee id, a starting and ending dates as input to the form. these values r to be passed to the query of the reports and the report has to extract the records of that employee between the start and end dates." how can i achieve this. i am entirely new to this reports and forms. please give me a clear reply so that i can call my report and pass that dates and id to my report. and also please explain me how to call a report from a form and make it to run. please make me clear where to write the code whether in forms or rports.

Calling infobus form from another.

Hi
Here is a brief description of the problem.
A simple data form is created using JDeveloper2.0's wizard. It is an Infobus based dataframe,which has a simple gridcontrol fetching data from the dept table. This form is in the pacakge,
package1.
Another form is made with a master detail relationship between dept and employee table, in the package, package2.
Now a button control is added on the first form( which is in package1) and the following code is added to the actionperformed event.
void buttonControl1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
Frame f = new package2.Frame1();
f.show();
Essentially, it calls the form in package2 when the button is pressed. Once this action is performed, the login dialog box of the form in package2 appears. After which it throws the following error and shows a blank form.
DAC-405: SessionInfo: Application module creation failed; className: ConnectionTrade
JBO-00200: A Generic exception occurred during loading Customizations.
null
If I add a button in the second form, (ie. the one in pacage2 having a master detail relationship) and call dept form (in package1) from here, it works.
We are stuck with this problem, and unable to proceed with deploying the application. As each form need to be called and invoked from a menu.
Thanks in advance.
Ravi

Hi,
You can do like this :
mainApplication(Menu)
+------------ Frame1
|
+------------ Frame2
In MainApp you call your frame, and remove from code the
windowListener of the frame. Replace the dispose(); in frame
methods fileExit(ActionEvent e) & processWindowEvent(WindowEvent
e), by try { finalize(); } catch (java.lang.Throwable ex) {
ex.getMessage(); }
It works great.

Pass data parameter from URL to Forms

Hi
Is it possible to pass a data parameter from asp to Forms?.
In my asp I have a url to call a form (eg. http://servername:port/forms90/f90servlet/form=testform.fmx). In my testform.fmx I accept 'account no' as a parameter for querying the records. Since I am calling this form from asp, I already have the account no in my asp. I would like to pass this account no to the form automatically.
Is it possible to pass this data parameter from url to forms?.
If possible, what changes to be made in the form. Please help.
sreekumar

Create a parameter in your form, there's a node for it in the Navigator window. Imagine it is called myParam.
Pass it on the URL like this:
http://host/forms90/f90servlet?config=myApp&otherParams=myParam=somevalue

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

Can't call a procedure from a PLSQL Library inside forms 10g

Hello,
I build a plsql library using forms builder, then I compile it and add to FORMS_PATH.
I try to use a procedure from that lib so i attached the library to form (without path), then in then WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED event I call one procedure from that library and i get this message :
error 201 at line 6 , column 2
identifier 'LIST_ADD_ALL' must be declared
---- MY CODE compiled ok with out errors i've got pll and plx
declare
     START_LIST_ID ITEM := FIND_ITEM('LIST16');
     END_LIST_ID ITEM := FIND_ITEM('ITEM18');
begin
     LIST_ADD_ALL(START_LIST_ID, END_LIST_ID);
end ;
I dont know if to put some kind of public declaration.
can anyone help me please.

In that case, use a batch file to start Form Builder to control your environment settings. The batch file ( e.g. FormsBuilder.bat ) should look roughly like this:

Unable to call a form from drill-down report

hello
i have a drill-down report, from where i wanna to call a transacation level form, so that user can modify the data from that transaction level form after seeing the result from report. After modification in data through form, report should be refreshed automatically.
i am using form6i, can't user dde.app_begin because it starts a new session

Hi,
if this is for Forms on the web, just call the Reports from web.show_document() when closing the Forms (assuming you close the Forms after the update).
If it is on client/server then you don't have a hook into Reports except you run a new Reports from Forms and close the Reports that called the Forms application (needs to be done within this Report)

If it is on client/server then you don't have a hook into Reports except you run a new Reports from Forms and close the Reports that called the Forms application (needs to be done within this Report)
