SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY
You can change the colour of any field in a block at row level.
The syntax in the on-line help is wrong (Known bug) it should be
in the same order as SET_ITEM_PROPERTY.

Set color of inactive elements

Hii all
I have a table layout form

When i click a button the status of those elements which satisfy a condition is changed to T
and the elements with status T are disabled
now i want to change the color of the elements which are disabled
like Inactive record elements will be black foreground, r100g50b0 background.(orange)
how can i do it ??
plzz help

Loop through the records of your database block.
Check if the item is disabled (Get_item_property).
If true than change the back ground color of the record (Set_block_property(...,CURRENT_ROW_BACKGROUND_COLOR,...))

Change Canvas Name of a field dynamically

Hi i want to know can we change a Canvas Name of a field dynamically ?
My requirement is that i have "Street Name" fields in many forms. Now i need to introduce a button next to "Street Name" field so that if "Street Name" values are available in LOV, then user can click on the Button and it will go the Street Master. Now problem is that "Street Name" Field is available in many forms. It would be too difficult to create a each field in each form. So instead of it i want to do it dynamically. If we can change a Field's (Item) canvas name dynamically then i think we achieve it.
Thanks

From my knowledge, we cant change a canvas name dynamically.. Below are the possible properties we can change. You can get these from forms online help
property
The property you want to set for the given item. Possible properties are:
ALIGNMENT The text alignment (text and display items only). Valid values are ALIGNMENT_START, ALIGNMENT_END, ALIGNMENT_LEFT, ALIGNMENT_ CENTER, ALIGNMENT_RIGHT. See the Justification Property for more information.
AUTO_HINT Determines if Oracle Forms will display help hints on the status line automatically when input focus is in the specified item. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE. See Display Hint Automatically Property.
AUTO_SKIP Specifies whether the cursor should skip to the next item automatically when the end user enters the last character in a text item. Valid only for a text item. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE.
BACKGROUND_COLOR The color of the object's background region. The property value is a reference to an RGB value such as r191g223b191.
BORDER_BEVEL Specifies the item border bevel for the specified item instance. Valid values are RAISED, LOWERED, or PLAIN (unbeveled).
Note: You cannot set BORDER_BEVEL if the item's Bevel property is set to None in Oracle Forms.
CASE_INSENSITIVE_QUERY Specifies whether query conditions entered in the item should be case-sensitive. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE.
CASE_RESTRICTION Specifies the case restriction applied to any text entered in the indicated text item. Valid values are UPPERCASE, LOWERCASE, or NONE.
CONCEAL_DATA Specify the constant PROPERTY_TRUE if you want the item to remain blank or otherwise obscured when the end user enters a value. Specify the constant PROPERTY_FALSE if you want any value that is typed into the text item to be visible.
CURRENT_RECORD_ATTRIBUTE Specifies VARCHAR2 name of the named visual attribute used when an item is part of the current record. If the named visual attribute does not exist, you will get an error message.
CURRENT_ROW_BACKGROUND_COLOR The color of the current record's background region.
CURRENT_ROW_FILL_PATTERN The pattern to be used for the current record's fill region. Patterns are rendered in the two colors specified by Background Color and Foreground Color.
CURRENT_ROW_FONT_NAME The font family, or typeface, that should be used for text in the current record. The list of fonts available is system-dependent.
CURRENT_ROW_FONT_SIZE The size of the font, specified in points.
CURRENT_ROW_FONT_SPACING The width of the font, that is, the amount of space between characters (kerning).
CURRENT_ROW_FONT_STYLE The style of the font.
CURRENT_ROW_FONT_WEIGHT The weight of the font.
CURRENT_ROW_FOREGROUND_COLOR The color of the current record's foreground region. For items, the Foreground Color attribute defines the color of text displayed in the item.
DIRECTION Specifies the layout direction for bidirectional objects. Valid values are DIRECTION_DEFAULT, RIGHT_TO_LEFT, LEFT_TO_RIGHT.
DISPLAYED Specifies whether the item will be displayed/enabled or hidden/disabled.
ECHO Specifies whether characters an end user types into a text item should be visible. When Echo is false, the characters typed are hidden. Used for password protection. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE.
ENABLED Specifies whether end users should be able to manipulate an item. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE.
Note: Setting Enabled to false will cause other item property settings to change.
FILL_PATTERN The pattern to be used for the object's fill region. Patterns are rendered in the two colors specified by Background Color and Foreground Color.
FONT_NAME The font family, or typeface, that should be used for text in the object. The list of fonts available is system-dependent.
FONT_SIZE The size of the font, specified in hundredths of a point (i.e., for a font size of 8 points, the value should be set to 800).
FONT_SPACING The width of the font, that is, the amount of space between characters (kerning).
FONT_STYLE The style of the font.
FONT_WEIGHT The weight of the font.
FOREGROUND_COLOR The color of the object's foreground region. For items, the Foreground Color attribute defines the color of text displayed in the item. The property value is a reference to an RGB value such as r191g223b191. Foreground color is always ignored for scrollbars.
FORMAT_MASK Specifies the display format and input accepted for data in text items.
HEIGHT Specifies the height of the item.
HINT_TEXT Specifies the item-specific help text displayed on the message line at runtime. If the text specified is NULL, the original hint text, specified in Oracle Forms, will be restored.

ITEM_SIZE Specifies a width and height for the item as two numbers separated by a comma. Use the syntax that includes x, y.
KEEP_POSITION Specifies whether the Keep Cursor Position property should be true or false. When Keep Cursor Position is true, the cursor returns to the same position it was in when it left the text item. When Keep Cursor Position is false, the cursor returns to the default position in the text item. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE.
LABEL Specifies the VARCHAR2 string that you want displayed as the label of the item. This property is only valid for items that have labels, such as buttons.

UPDATE_PERMISSION Use UPDATE_ ALLOWED when you run against non-ORACLE data sources. Specify the constant PROPERTY_TRUE to turn on the item's UPDATEABLE and UPDATE_NULL properties. Specify the constant PROPERTY_FALSE to turn off the item's UPDATEABLE and UPDATE_NULL properties.
VALIDATE_FROM_LIST Specifies that Oracle Forms should validate the value of the text item against the values in the attached LOV when set to PROPERTY_TRUE. Specify PROPERTY_FALSE to specify that Oracle Forms should not use the LOV for validation.
VISIBLE Specifies whether the indicated item should be visible or hidden. Valid values are PROPERTY_TRUE and PROPERTY_FALSE.
Note: Setting Visible to false will cause other item property settings to change.

Hai need help

hi
