Custom Colors in Oracle Forms.

Hi,
As we know we can create custom color in oracle forms and process to create is
Creating Custom colors :
a)Go to Tools->Preferences. In General Tab On the Color Mode drop-down, select Editable then exit Forms builder.
b)Restart forms builder.
c)Open up a canvas window, then go to Format->Layout Options->Color Palette.
d)select any colour on the palette and edit it
say we created a color with rgb value r0g0b100 i edit the from rgb value to FrameColor.Therefore my new custom color name wil be "*FrameColor"*
Is there any way to know the rgb value after changing Name?
Kindly help me to know the solution.
Thanks,
Manasa

To see the rgb value you must have set the colour palette to be editable. Then open the colour palette select the custom colour you want to see the value of then click on the Edit button where you will be able to see the rgb value for that colour.
In 10g
Set to Editable
Edit -> Preferences -> change colour mode to Editable -> Exit form builder
Add Custom Colour
Re-open the form
Open a canvas
Edit -> Layout Options -> Colour Palette
Select a colour to edit by clicking on an undefined colour i.e. a white square on the bottom far left of the palette
In the current colour dialog it will say something like custom5 change it to a more meaningful name you can call it the rgb value
Then click on rename -> then Edit -> change the rbg value to the colour you want to add-> click OK
Export the custom colour palette
From the canvas -> Edit -> Export -> Colour Palette -> give it a name

Oracle Forms-- Disabling Custom Code

Hello.
When disabling custom code in Oracle Forms (EBS R12, using Help -> Diagnostics -> Custom Code -> Off), are calls to CUSTOM.pll the only thing that is disabled, or are there other things that are "Custom Code" too?
Thanks in advance.

Migrating a Forms 6i custom application to Oracle Apps R12 custom bolt on

Hi,
I need to migrate an oracle forms custom application built in 6i to sit within oracle apps R12 (Forms 10g) and use Oracle Apps user authentication and session. It could become a custom bolt on to Oracle Apps and might be accessed from a custom responsibility in oracle applications.
a) How easy/difficult is this?
b) What are the challenges or things to look for to do this migration?
Thanks,
Ayyappa

Hi,
We have two node architecture for R12.1.1 on windows 2008 32 Bit. One node for Database and the other node for application.
As we are facing a lot of memory issues, we are planning to go for 64 Bit.
I Have already read the document
Migrating Oracle E-Business Suite R12 to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 [ID 1188535.1]
The doc says in place OS upgrades are not supported....
So my question is...
While keeping the production, how can i migrate using the same servers. Coz my company does not want to buy new servers..
Please suggest.Complete all the steps in the doc for Rapid Clone and other steps, then take a backup of the files after you run preclone and create a trace file for the database. Once you have the backup ready, install a 64-bit version of the OS and install 11gR2 software and restore the files from the backup and complete the migration.

How to Handle Automatic Skip Property of Item in Oracle Forms through Custom.pll or from other methods

Hi All,
How to Handle Automatic Skip Property of Item in Oracle Forms through Custom.pll or from other methods.
This is a enhancement requirement.
When ever user enter value in field 1 then automatically cursor should go to next field.

Hello Bobb,
You can create a trigger(when-list-changed) for each list item where you could:
1.recreate the record groups and then use POPULATE_LIST so you can hide the selected values. In forms builder online help there are some good examples about create record groups dynamically.
or
2.you can perform a validation instead of hiding the selected values. If the values is already selected the display a message 'Value already selected....'
Second option is much faster(only an 'if clause')
Hope this helps.

Alex

How to Save a File in Oracle Forms 6 ?

flnm:=get_file_name('E:\',file_filter=>'Text Files(*.lst|*.lst|');
I f I use this, It prompts me to save the file. I want to save it automatically without asking me to enter the file name. We can get file name too from the above syntax

Hi,
You can define a Form Function filling the basic information and
HTML call Set as OracleOasis.RunDiscoverer. You can even define Paramters during the form function registration. With this definition you will able to create a link to a Discoverer workbook that will automatically open Discoverer Plus or Viewer to display the workbook using Apps security.
Please refer to the following Metalink Note for more details:

Oracle forms 6i (Pentium 4, Win98) "Can not install"

I have a "customized" Oracle interface that was created in Oracle forms 6. I have successfully used this form on Windows 95 Clients but now I must switch to a Windows 98 O/S on a Pentium 4 machine. I actually had to download a special Oracle Installer to install the 8i Client, but I now need to load a newer version of the Forms "run-time" and can not install it from the 6i forms download. Any suggestions would be more than appreciated.

Forms 6i installation in Windows98 should not give any trouble. Hope you
have checked the memory. You should have 128MB memory to install
Forms6i. In Runtime you may not actually require that much of memory but
to install you reuire that (Please see Hardware requirement for Form6i).

Running oracle form builder 10g in windows 7 64 bit

i am working in windows 7 64 bit
oracle db 11g enterprise edition 11.2.0.10 64 bit
form builder 10.12.0.2 32 bit
my default browser is Google Chrome
i have java 6 standard edition 1.6.0_34
when i am trying to run any form this message appear " java (TM) is required to display some elements in this page"
what can i do to run those forms?

You can also refer to this OTN reference:
Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2) Certification Matrix
Other comments:
1. I would not recommend using Forms 10.1.2.0 with Oracle DB 11.2.x. Patching Oracle Forms to 10.1.2.3 would be recommended. Using version Forms 11 would be better.
2. Attempting to use the Developer Tools on Windows 7 is not a great idea although it can be made to work. Developer Suite 10 is no longer supported and was never really intended for use on Win7. Again, patching to 10.1.2.3 is recommended and required if you plan to follow the Oracle instructions and certifications.
3. Installing the Forms Builder (Developer Suite) on Win7-64bit is not at all certified and was never supported.
4. Using Java 7 was not certified and therefore not supported for use with Forms 10.x
In general, Forms 10.1.2.x has been desupported. Customer using this version or older should be working on a migration plan for getting to the latest supported version which is 11.1.2.1.
