CASE function problem in forms

I am using the CASE function in View. Whenever i execute it using SQL plus it runs successfully. I have developed a form on this view and the form does not reflect the CASE function changes. Just an example i am using the CASE function to set the number format but it is not depicting on form.
SELECT (CASE when TO_NUMBER(123123.12/1000000) < 1 THEN TO_CHAR(TO_NUMBER(123123.12/1000000),'0.99999')
ELSE LTRIM(TO_CHAR(TO_NUMBER(123123.12/1000000),'999,999.999999')) END) as targetamount
FROM DUAL

This is not that diffucult.....I rememeber doing this in one of my forms....
I would have three content areas
ContentArea A (Portrait) linked to Subform A
ContentArea B (Landscape) linked to Subform B
ContentArea C (Portrait) linked to Subform C
Now I will set the Min, Max and Initial values for each of those Subform using Binding tab.
Then I will manage the page layout selection with each of those subforms using Object>>Pagination>>Place and link those to the Content area A B or C based on the layout they should go on. That should do the trick.
If this is not helpful just forward me a copy at n_varma(AT)lycos.com....I will try my best.
Good Luck,

RANK() function problem in Form 10g

I am using form 10g R2. I wrote codes inside a trigger of a button to select from one table, named test. The code is as follows:
select mm,pp,rr from test. The form can compile this code.
But when I write teh code select mm,pp, rank() over(order by pp desc) rr from test, the form can not compile. Itshows the following error:
Encountered the sysmbol "(" when expecting one of the following:
, from into bulk.
The table has only one record. It works in SQL environment but the form can not compile this RANK() OVER() function.
Do you have any idea to use RANK() OVER() function in Form 10g?

Some analytical functions do not work in client-side sql in forms, you'll have to encapsulate your logic in the database.

What is the difference betwee decode & case function

Hi
What is the difference betwee decode & case function
1.decode can't used in pl/sql 1) case can be user
2.in decode we can't use (>,<,>=) 2) we can use
any other do u have....
thanks in advance....

DECODE works with expressions which are scalar values.
CASE can work with predicates and subqueries in searchable form.
There is one more Important difference between CASE and DECODE
DECODE can be used Only inside SQL statement....
But CASE can be used any where even as a parameter of a function/procedure
Eg:-
SQL> create or replace procedure pro_01(n number) is
2 begin
3 dbms_output.put_line(' The number = '||n);
4 End;
5 /
Procedure created.
SQL> set serverout on
SQL> var a varchar2(5);
SQL> Begin
2 :a := 'ONE';
3 End;
4 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> Begin
2 pro_01(Decode(:a,'ONE',1,0));
3 End;
4 /
pro_01(Decode(:a,'ONE',1,0));
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-06550: line 2, column 9:
PLS-00204: function or pseudo-column 'DECODE' may be used inside a SQL
statement only
ORA-06550: line 2, column 2:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
SQL> Begin
2 pro_01(case :a when 'ONE' then 1 else 0 end);
3 End;
4 /
The number = 1

Font size issue with the email functionality of infopath form

Hi,
We have a SharePoint list created and customised the form to send the form via email using email functionality in infopath form.
We have made the font size of the form fields( rich text box) to 11. But it is showing as 10 in email. Also for a text box we set the font size to 14. But it is 13.5 in the email.
Could anyone please let me know how to fix this issue?

Yes, this is normal. Forms Services has to convert the form to an aspx page, and things get lost in translation when this gets submitted via email. My workaround has always been to set static widths to columns/controls, but you said that didn't work
for you? It's always worked for me.

CASE function is not working

Hi,
I want to use the CASE function in a sql statement used at form level but it's not working. I can't compile the form. I am using developer 6i at font end and Oracle 10g database at back end. Is it possible to use case function at form level sql statement. If so then please help me about it.
Best Regards

Forms has it's own PL/SQL engine, and in Forms 6i it's version 8 where no CASE was available. So if you want to use CASE you'll have to use a view or put your logic in a stored procedure.

Case-Sensitive problem while compiling in Linux

Hi All,
We have around 100 forms developed in windows platform. The forms use program units from plls. Compiling against windows do not have any problem. But when they are compiled in linux environment, we get error like frm-18108: unable to load form objects.
Also the program units of the pll's are not referred correctly, since the declaration is in upper case and the calling in the other forms is in other cases.
Is there any way to by-pass this case-sensitive problem, other than making them even in case, in the forms and libraries.
Thanks
Gopal

Hi Francois,
I had already tried with having all combinations of file name but still I am getting
error
"Compilation error on procedure CG$KEY_STARTUP:
PL/SQL ERROR 201 at line 9, column 1
identifier 'SET_MDI_TITLE' must be declared
PL/SQL ERROR 0 at line 9, column 1
Statement ignored".
The set_mdi_title PU is defined in PLL and the library is attached to the form. When I compile the form using f90gen, I am getting the above error.
Please suggest.
Thanks Gopal

Subtotal issue when subtotaling on a calc field built using CASE function

Okay, I hpe I can explain this well. May be possible that this is something cannot handle in Discoverer. I am using Discoverer Plus to develop a new workbook - cross project expenditure inquiry. A requirement is to not allow a worksheet user to see labor cost (since possible to figure out someone's salary) amount unless they are allowed to view labor cost. I have a function that returns a Y/N value that tells me if they can view labor cost. That works out just fine. So what I am doing is taking my database cost column (which is defined as Number(22,5) in the Oracle table. I create a new calculated column, basically like this -
CASE WHEN expenditure type <> LABOR THEN cost WHEN view labor cost = 'Y' THEN cost ELSE NULL END.
That calculated column is working just fine. I am seeing my desired results in that column. Okay so far.
Next, the users want subtotals by project organization and project. So I created a new total. When I did that, my subtotal row amount is blank.
Okay, I have seen this happen with NULLS before. Like in the gl_je_lines tables, where the accounted_Dr and accounted_Cr may be null, and have to do a NVL function to convert the null to 0 and allow me to subtotal on the column in a Discoverer workbook.
So I tried creating a second calculation -
NVL(Cost,0)
So I return the cost if not null, otherwise I return 0. Second calc column results look okay.
Now I did a subtotal on the second calculation. Oops. Wrong result. Amount is shown as 0.
For grins, I went back to my CASE statement on my first calculation and changed the ELSE condtion from NULL to 0. When I did that, the subtotal on that column changes from a blank (Null) value to a 0 value. Well, better, but still just like my second calculation subtotal.
Obviously the users have the option to export to Excel and subtotal in Excel.
Does anyone know of a way to get a good subtotal in this kind of situation, where I am attempting to subtotal on a calculated field that is built on a CASE function? Or am I out of luck when it comes to Discoverer?
John Dickey

Okay, I did find a workaround, though I do not understand why the workaround works, but why the way I first tried to get a subtotal did not work. What I did is that I had to go to Discoverer Administrator. I picked my folder and did an Insert/Item. I created my new item building the same CASE statement that I used in my worksheet to create a new calculation. I then closed Discoverer Plus and reopened Discoverer Plus. Opened my worksheet. Edited the worksheet and brought in my new (derived) item from my folder. Then I created my subtotals for this secured cost amount. Voila. I get a number now, and the subtotal amount appears to be correct (still testing/verifying, but looks okay so far). So I deleted my subtotals on my calculated column and then deleted the calculation, to get that stuff out of the report. Sure would be nice if there was documentation in the Discoverer manuals about this.

Hi;
There is an "Attachment" field that allows a user to upload an attachment (Image, PDF, document etc). It is one of the fields on the form fields toolbar:
Make sure you are in "Web View" as opposed to "Page View" on the Design tab authoring your form to add the attachment field, the "View" setting is under the View menu and also at the bottom right corner of the page.
Here is a tutorial on the attachment feature: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1413

How to use a function PIPELINED in Forms 10g?

Hi guys,
When I tried to use a function PIPELINED in Forms, I received the message:

vnVlrTotalCredito := vnVlrTotalCredito + rec_dev.valor_credito;

Can anyone help me?

You can't. One option would be to wrap your pipelined function in a view, or you could write a stored procedure which returns a strong ref cursor instead.

How to use, Case function and Filter in Column Formula?

Hello All,
I am using case function and also would like to filter value to populate.
Below is showing error :
case
when '@{Time}' = 'Year' then "Time"."Fiscal Year"
when '@{Time}' = 'Quarter' then "Time"."Fiscal Quarter"
when '@{Time}' = 'Month' then FILTER ("Time"."Fiscal Period" USING "Time"."Fiscal Period" NOT LIKE 'A%')
else ifnull('@{Time}','Selection Failed') end
Thanks, AK

when '@{Time}' = 'Month' then FILTER ("Time"."Fiscal Period" USING "Time"."Fiscal Period" NOT LIKE 'A%')I dont think Filter this works here or any other data types except number.
Try to use option Column's->Filter->Advanced->Convert this filter to SQL
