Chart in Forms 9i or 10g

Escuse me, my english is no so good. But my cuestion is, Can i work with graph (new version) in Forms 9i or 10g. I try to work with Chart Item but is imposible.

Josune,
there is a Whitepaper available in teh Forms9i collateral section on otn.oracle.com/products/forms that explains how to use Graphics 6i in a 9i environment. This however is not a smooth integration and - if for simple charts - I suggest to look at the BI graph Bean example in teh Forms9i demos.
http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/forms/index9i.html
Its in the first extension pack. You can see a screenshot on teh page too.

  • How to create business charts in Forms 10g?

    In the old days, before and in 8i, we can still create business charts using Graphics Builder with the following graph types. How can we build business charts in forms 10g?
    Column: Shows discrete values using vertical columns
    Bar: Shows discrete values using horizontal bars
    Gantt: Shows task or project scheduling information using horizontal bars
    High-Low: Shows multiple Y-axis values for each X-axis point
    Line: Shows data values as points connected by lines to show trends
    Mixed: Combines a column and line chart
    Pie: Shows how individual data values contribute to an overall total
    Scatter: Plots 2 sets of potentially related data to identify possible trends
    Table: Shows text data in a table
    Double-Y: Shows a column or line chart with multiple values for the same X-axis value

    On the samples page on OTN there is a piece on how to use BI beans to achieve business charts. Search for "BI bean Graphs in Forms".

  • Organization chart in forms 6i

    Hi all!!
    I am using forms version 6(6i).My requirement is to develop an organisation chart from forms(not using trees).Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    it depends on how long you want to use 6i. Do you want to migrate up to 10g in the next time? Because Graphics is obsolete in 10g and you have to use java beans instead of then (means double work). Although it looks more mean to use forms and the charts there, you have to consider to do it with excel instead.

  • Getting Error While Opening the Oracle Form 6i in 10g

    Hi All ,
    FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library XXX. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.
    I am getting above error message while opening Oracle 6i Form in 10g.
    I get the following Alert message when I try to attach the library to my form -
    Attached library name
    S:\.........xxx.pll contains non-portable directory specification. Remove path? Yes/No?
    If I select 'No', the Form compiles and runs without any error.
    But if I select 'Yes', I get the following error message:
    FRM-40039: Cannot attach library xxx while opening form.
    All files (fmb, fmx, pll, plx) are on the same path. I detached and then re-attached the library but this didn't work for me?
    Help Appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ram.

    use the shiped batch program frmplsqlconv.bat to convert all your forms/librarys from Forms 6i to 10g.
    you can call it in wizard mode from the start menu (e.g. OracleDeveloperSuite <OraHome> => Forms Developer => Forms Migration Assistant (GUI Mode) and follow the instructions step by step
    or you can call it by batch to convert all your forms/librarys. The batch file is found in
    <ORA10g_HOME>BIN\frmplsqlconv.bat
    =>
    frmplsqlconv.bat <formname>

  • Hotkey (Ctrl+B) is not working after migration from Forms 6i to 10g

    Dear Gurus,
    Need your help regarding the following problem:
    After migrating from Forms 6i to 10g (Rel 2), Ctrl+B (used to list the blocks in a form) hotkey is not working anymore (all other hotkeys are working fine). I've checked my FMRWEB.RES and it contains an entry for Ctrl+B:
    66 : 2 : "Ctrl+B" : 70 : "Block Menu"
    Additional Information:
    OS: AIX
    NLS_LANG = UTF8
    fmrweb_utf8.res also contains the same text for Ctrl+B as above.
    I tried to reproduce it on my Windows Machine (with NLS_LANG set to AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1) and its not working as well. I don't have right to put move files on AIX server but i can try anything (on my local system) suggested by the Oracle gurus.
    Best Regards,

    Dear Gerd,
    "are you sure, that it is the hotkey"
    Yes, i am dead sure. Since:
    (1) It was working fine in forms 6i
    (2) If you run a form and select Help => Keys, you will see Ctrl+B on the top of list
    The problem is its not taking into account the keys which i am defining in the file (although i am following the same procedure detailed on metalink.oracle.com).

  • Occasional ora-6502 using forms 6i and 10g

    Hi all.
    We have been experiencing some weird and unexpected ora-6502 errors in some of our forms 6i modules running against 10g (rel 1 or 2).
    Forms modules are correctly functioning and for some reason, one day an ora-6502 error suddenly pops up.
    Now the weirdest thing is that after you put some messages on the trigger, so you can track down where the error is coming from, it disappears.
    I know that this may sound hard to believe, but it has happened several times. All we do is put some message built in, recompile all, and the error is gone (for a while).
    So my questions are:
    - Is this a known issue beween forms 6i and 10g Db?.
    - Is there a patch on Metalink ( we use Forms [32 bits] Versión 6.0.8.26.0 (Producción))
    - A workaround?
    and most important
    - Have anyone been exposed to a similar situation?
    Regards, Luis ...!

    Now the weirdest thing is that after you put some messages on the trigger, so you can track down where the error is coming from, it disappears.Sounds like the form has not been "clean compiled" against the server on which it is running. Try a "Compile All", which causes all previously compiled program units to be compiled fresh.
    Or even better, clean out all the compiled code from your fmb before compiling the fmb on the server where it runs.
    See this topic:   Re: Why does this happen - find ';', replace with ';'?

  • Query records using a date DD-MON-YYYY in Forms 6i and 10g

    In Forms 6i, I can query records by entering >20-dec-2006 in a date field which has length of 12 with a date format mask DD-MON-YYYY in date item property. Once this form is converted to 10g, I can only enter >2-dec-2006 for querying. If trying to enter the >20-dec-2006, then, it becomes >20-dec-200 and have no record found. Although I have the date length increased to 20, the result stays the same: can't enter 2 digits for day.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Appreciate your help. The date field has a format mask of DD-MON-YYYY. By entering >2-dec-2005 it will automatically be displayed as >2-DEC-2005 in Forms 6i or 10g. Also, the query property has case insensitive checked as Yes. The problem is with 10g, I can not enter anything at the 12th position. I can enter the date up to the 11th position >20-dec-200. In Forms 6i, this is not a problem. Thanks.

  • Date format Problem in forms&reports Services 10g

    Hi Dears,
    I Faced a problem during running reports ( i am using forms& Reports Services 10g), when i pass the parameters via parameter form to the report (built in forms10g Rel 2.0) its appearing in arabic like (25-يناير-2010) as my Date Formate is (DD-YYYY-MON) and NLS_LANG parameter is defined as Arabic_Saudi arabia.AR8MSWIN1256 so as a result report is not running due to unknown Date formate, how can i change the Same Date format (DD-YYYY-MON) to appear in english like (25-2010-JAN)
    Thanks

    You could specify the parameter as type VARCHAR2, explicitly cast it (maybe to DD.MM.YYYY) when you pass it from forms and cast it back in your query, like TO_DATE(:P_PARAM, 'DD.MM.YYYY')

  • Forms 6i to 10g Migration Questions

    Hi,
    My company is thinking about migrating Forms 6i to 10g. I wonder if you can share some of your experience with us (and with thousands of others who will also face the same daunting task)
    1. How do you like/dislike Forms 10g after the migration?
    2. What are the pitfalls of Forms 10g? What are the strengths?
    3. Other than Oracle Migration tools, is there any other tools that can help us?
    4. How long is the migration process typically taken?
    5. What problems have been encountered in the upgrade process?
    Thank you very much!
    Sincerely,
    John Sun

    May I answer your question with some questions of my own? :)
    1. Are you migrating from Forms6i client-server or web?
    2. If Web, to a non-Windows middle tier (hopefully)?
    3. Do you plan to incorporate OID/SSO and/or Portal in the new environment?
    I just reached the end of a 6-month long prototyping project to migrate our Forms/Reports 6i application (80% client-server, 20% web) to 10g, using SSO and Portal for report destination. We migrated about a dozen forms of varying complexity and rewrote our main application/menu form. We originally thought the prototype would take 3-4 months. The purpose was to learn what we needed to develop the best migration approach and have an idea of what it would cost. The application has about 650 forms/reports modules. Costs and the learning curve prohibited a move to J2EE/ADF; oh I wished... Management is hoping we can complete the full migration in about a year, but I think... well, this is a public forum and I am using my real name. ;)
    We've only been using 10g release 2 since the end of January. Stay away from release 1 at all costs. Even release 2 is not what I would call entirely stable. I just opened a SR on MetaLink a few days ago for a problem I was able to recreate where the use of a button on a form-level toolbar that directly or indirectly call_forms a new form, and then navigation occurs back to the original form (say, when trying to minimize or rearrange widows) causes the session to crash with the infamous ORA-92101. We rely heavily on a hierarchical tree for our application menu, and keyboard navigation on the tree is somewhat broken (tree triggers not firing).
    However, many long-standing 6i bugs have been fixed, and I really, REALLY do appreciate being at PL/SQL version 10 in Forms.
    But we have some real challenges too, some self-inflicted. Some 400 of our application forms were converted from SQL*Forms 3.0 via Kumaran a while back. This is admittedly our greatest challenge. The V3 forms, being they were character-based with no mouse support, had lots of code in Key-navigation triggers that was never meant to be in navigation triggers (validation, etc) and would get bypassed if the user skipped the field using a mouse. Kumaran solved this problem using mouse triggers which are no longer supported on the web. We also are attempting to introduce some enhancements during the migration like become Section 508 compliant.
    I did not opt to use the migration tool; it doesn't really do that much for you anyway.
    One headache for us was Reports. We eliminated many temporary tables (permanent tables created temporarily) in user schemas for the use of global temporary tables. Granted, this feature showed up in Oracle9i. But in 10g, we found inadvertently that database sessions for reports are initiated by a java process and reused for performance, meaning different reports sometimes (and unpredictably) are sharing database sessions instead of getting their own. It would've been nice to know this beforehand because it was a challenge to find out the hard way.
    My biggest complaint is that Forms still lags behind in features that are part of the application server. For example, I would've loved to implement Enterprise Users and rid our database of the many thousands of user accounts. But Forms doesn't support it. And Oracle really should have provided a migration tool to create the OID resource that links the OID user account via SSO to the database account. Especially since Forms only works with database accounts. All we got was a 9i-based White Paper on the APIs to write our own. This is Oracle data, not application data for heavens sake!
    I've opened easily over a hundred SRs during this time, and am quite sure that my name is mud by now and that I have lost any chance of ever getting hired by Oracle. ;)
    If your DBAs are database-centric and not used to administering a middle tier-- or administer an old middle-tier like 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2, get them into instructor-led training on 10g administration BEFORE they have to install the 10g infrastructure and middle tiers. The architecture is radically changed and infinitely more complex. As far as the workload the developers will face; Forms is still pretty much Forms, but the state of your existing code will play into it.
    I was so tired of spending years on older versions of Oracle software. And I am proud to announce that I am now intimately familiar with what is known as The Bleeding Edge.

  • Migrating Forms 61 to 10g - Forms Builder Crashing

    We are migrating from Forms 6i to 10g. The application works on a HP-UX box, and since we do not have the necessary setup done in the Unix box yet, we are trying to compile the forms in Windows before-hand to see if we can pre-empt some errors.
    I have written a batch command to compile the 6i forms in windows (Windows XP) by invoking the 10g Forms Builder.
    While it works like a charm for most of the forms (we have around 500 forms), there are a few forms for which the compiler/builder simply crashes. The .err file created for this form has absolutely nothing, it is a 0KB file.
    When I try opening such forms in Forms Dev 10g, and then compile them, the Dev crashes. It gives no indication of the error.
    By crashing I mean that windows throws the error message saying "Application has to be closed. Send error report: yes/no"
    Can someone please tell me if you faced such a problem, and how you went about solving it?

    Try a Compile All ( Ctrl - K ), then Ctrl - T.
    Not sure about XP, but in Vista, the 10g Builder and batch compiler will crash if a PLL Library is not available when the form is compiled.
    Make sure the PLL Library is available, and all its objects compile in the 10g setup.
    If that does not help, then try a semicolon-to-semicolon replace all, then save the fmb. Then restart the Forms Builder, and open the fmb again, and try compiling.
    Here is an old link describing the issue:

  • Forms 6i and 10g co-existance

    Hi,
    I have a machine running windows XP Pro.
    Does anyone know if forms 6i and 10g (running forms services) can co-exist on the same machine? and are there any potential pitfalls (ie order of installation etc).
    Thanks,
    Martin

    You should be able to install this ok so long as you keep them in different Oracle_homes...
    At a push I would recommned installing 6i first.
