Comment command in forms

COMMENT ON COLUMN TMP.TMP IS 'COMM';
This command works ok from SQL*Plus, I want to run it in Forms I can not it gives a syntax error

COMMENT does not work in Forms.
In fact it works only in SQLPLUS.
Forms is not generally used as a database admin tool. What are you trying to achieve? Maybe there is some other way of doing what you want to do.

  • Excute Batch command in FORM

    How can I call external batch command in FORM?

    G'Day,
    Okay, you don't say if you need to do this in the Unix environment or Windows. I guess you mention 'batch' so it must be Windows. Try using the API (DDE.App_Begin(...)) function.

  • Is there anything like HOST command in Forms in Reports ??

    Hello everybody
    Is there any command in reports like a HOST command in Forms through which I can call a system command.
    My goal is I want to invoke a shell script from my report that will run in the background, do few things and come back to the report once a button is pressed.
    Thanks in advance :-)

    You can4t use the host command, but there is a solution available if you are running 8i with java see http://technet.oracle.com:89/ubb/Forum3/HTML/003262.html

  • Comments Drop Behind Form Field

    I have forms that I created using Adobe XI Pro and want the end user to provide comments to the forms in PDF when necessary.  However, when a comment is inserted using either Reader or Pro, the comment drops behind the field in the final version and cannot be seen but can be found in the comments summary dialog box.  Is there a way to leave the comments on the top layer so they are always visible on the page?

    Sorry, I slightly misread your original post. The fact that these annotations appear behind form fields is normal and not something you can change.
    However, if you flatten the form fields and not the comments, the field appearances will get converted to regular page contents so the comments will appear above them. I don't know if this would make sense to do given your workflow though. If you want to look into it more, you can download and install the following free JavaScript-based selective flattener tool: UVSAR : Selective Flattener tool for Adobe Acrobat 8, 9 and X

  • Commenting on Dynamic Forms

    I have several forms that I have created in LiveCycle Designer. Some are static, others are dynamic. When I do any sort of comment (strikethrough, hignlight, etc) on a static form using Acrobat Pro, everything works fine. But on dynamic forms, although I get the options to comment on a form, nothing actually happens when I do so.
    Does commenting on dynamic forms in Acrobat not work or am I doing something wrong?

    Pour commander un moteur pas à pas il faut également un controleur (NI-7330,7340 ou 7350) et un driver. Les controleurs NI viennent avec la librairie Motion I/O qui contient les VIs qui permettent de controler le moteur.

  • Running Copy command from Forms 6i

    HI!
    I want to run Copy command through Forms 6i i.e copy from scott/tiger@orcl insert test@msora(ename) using select to_char(ename) ename from emp;
    I can run DDL command through Forms_ddl functions in Forms 6i, But copy command is not working using Forms_ddl.
    thanks in advance.
    Edited by: Kami_Lily on Aug 2, 2009 10:04 PM

    Dear Kami Lily,
    Oracle Forms is able to execute SQL and PL/SQL command only. Additionally it supports Operating System command by HOST built-in.
    Though COPY is a SQL*Plus command, it is not possible to execute this command by HOST built-in.
    Instead, if you hardly want to execute COPY command oracle forms 6i, then you make a batch file in operating system and run that batch file from HOST built-in.
    Thanks.

  • Incorporate shell commands from forms

    How to incorporate unix shell commands(eg. ls, cp) from forms9i?
    In Windows environment,it is possible by issuing
    host command(eg. HOST('DIR >k.lis') -- it moves the list of files from Oracle9i/forms90 path to a file k.lis).
    The same thing I have to do in a unix environment.

    I think you have the wrong forum. This forum has to do
    with the UIX technology inside of JDeveloper. Your
    question seems to have to do with UNIX or forms. I can't
    tell which.

  • Command in forms 6i to open a folder

    We use forms 6i for all development. We do not develop at all in 9iAS or 10gAS. However we have some clients who use the application server, in which case we take the 6i form, convert to 10gAS form, and recompile.
    In one form we have the following code:
    IF get_application_property(user_interface) = 'WEB' THEN
    web.show_document(<location>l, '_blank');
    ELSE
    host( 'cmd /C start /W '||<location>);
    END IF;
    The host command works fine in the client/server environment, and opens up the relevant directory on the local PC. But the webutil command does not work. I need some way of doing the same as the host command i.e. to open a folder/directory from the local PC. I heard there was an addon or something for webutil to allow to run in 6i. Either this, or any way of opening the folder.
    Thanks.

    There is a thread about Webutil in forms 6i. May take a look: [Webutil in forms 6i|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=210430&start=0&tstart=0]

  • Enable Commenting on Interactive Form

    Hello,
    I am a bit of a newbie in javascript programming but I have been using Livecycle to design basic forms.  On the basic forms I created, I had no problem allowing the user to attach a file.
    Just recently, I created a dynamic interactive form that works great (I started the design on Livecycle 8.0 but just recently upgraded to version 8.2 that came packaged with the Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended).  I have opened the finished form on Adobe Acrobat, extended reader rights, however, in Reader, it is not allowing attachment of file (basically---not allowing commenting).  [NOTE: I am using reader version 9.1].  I went back to Acrobat to make sure I did the reader rights enabling correctly and copied the complete message below.  I don't know why under the Note below it says that security permissions already exist that do not allow commenting.  I looked at the properties of the form on Livecyle and under PDF Security, both boxes to restrict document opening with a password AND restrict printing and editing of document with a password are both unchecked.  So it does not seem that there are restrictions.  I don't know why it's behaving this way.  Can someone help me?
    Thank you.
    MESSAGE from Acrobat when extending Reader Rights:
    The following features will become available for this document when opened in
    the free Adobe Reader.
    - Save form data (for a fillable PDF form only)
    - Sign an existing signature field
    - Digitally sign the document anywhere on the page (not available for XML
    forms; only supported in Adobe Reader 8.0 or later)
    Note: Security permissions already existing on this document do not allow
    commenting or signing the document other than signing existing signature
    fields. Once Reader Enabled, certain functions, such as editing document
    content or inserting and deleting pages, will also be restricted.

    Well, it's a bit more complex.
    Acrobat Pro does allow forms to be reader extended for commenting.  In fact, the rights include form fillin and save, creation and modification of form fields (including adding digital signtures), applying a digital signature and adding comments.  But there are two other things that can be getting you:
    You can't put comments on a dynamic form... only static or pdf artwork
    You can attach files to a PDF in one of two ways.  The first is an attached file in a comment.  The second is as an embedded/attached file (this is the file support that is now called portfolios).  There is a Reader Extension right called "additions and changes to embedded files" that is needed for this.  It is only available through the server-based Reader Extensions and not in Acrobat.

  • Host command in forms/reports

    Is there a host command in reports 6i? I used this in forms 6i. When I tried to use in Reports 6i, I received a compile error.
    basically all I need to do is to get directory information. This can be easily done in forms using the host command. Is there any built in package or function to achieve this in reports?
    thanks

    there is no "host" command in reports 6i (or earlier versions). you might want to consider using forms+reports combination (calling the report from within a form, in which you can execute the host command and do whatever you want to do, then pass the related parameters to the report). I am using this approach to handle some complex end user reporting requirements.
    hope this proves useful
    regards

  • HOST command and Forms 4.5

    We were using HOST command(to start SQL Plus) in one of the form of our application (forms version 4.5) and this application was running fine on Win NT. Now this application is moved onto Windows 2000. Now we noticed that once the HOST command statement is executed, the application goes into hang and has to terminated. We fixed this problem temporarily by putting a message() and pause statement before and after HOST command statement and the application is running fine. I would like a better solution to this problem. If anyone has encountered this kind of problem or any idea, please reply.

    I have the same problem with my program. Have you figured it out the solution? and if not, could you show me the code of your temporary fix? my email is: [email protected]
