Date Format Issue with Pre-Insert trigger

I have created a form wherein creation_date and last_update_date are columns in a table that needs to be populated with sysdate (in format mm/dd/yyyy hh:mi:ss am) at time of saving.
In pre-insert triiger, if I assign date as follows , it works:
:creation_date=sysdate;
However this creates date in format yyyy/mm/dd.
I would like to set it in format mm/dd/yyyy hh:mi:ss am.
How can this be done-I tried using to_date and to_char but wont work.
Any ideas?

hi
u may try this too.
when-new-form-instance trigger:
set_application_property(PLSQL_date_FORMAT,'DDMMYYYY HH12:MI:SS');
set_application_property(BUILTIN_date_FORMAT,'DDMMYYYY HH12:MI:SS');
forms_ddl('ALTER SESSION SET NLS_date_FORMAT=''DDMMYYYY HH12:MI:SS'''); sarah

Uk date format issue with ASP and Access Database

I have an Asp form which updates records in an Access
database. Problem is
that the date format in the database record is dd/mm/yyyy
(UK), when
the record is displayed on the form it is mm/dd/yyyy(US)
which after I
update the record in the database the date has changed to the
new format.
I have tried everything I can to change the format but to no
avail...anyone any ideas how I can resolve this issue?
Thanks

Its not Dreamweaver, or Access, its your servers locale, its
set to US
format, not the UK.
On your page at the top use:
<% Session.LCID = 2057 %>
This will force the page into using UK formatted dates. Use
it on any
page that needs to format the page correctly.

Date Format Issue with Interactive Form

Hi, here is the scenario:
-We just upgraded to SP17 from SP15
-I'm using Livecycle Designer 8.0
When we were on SP15, this was not an issue. I was wondering if anyone encountered this problem and if so, if there is a workaround?
I create an interactive form to start a guided procedure process. Im passing the data from my desktop Interactive form to another callable object in GP to send an email with the PDF attached. This all works correclty.
My date/time fields are set to type DATE with a display pattern of YYYY-MM-DD. When I create the form in the GP administrator to my desktop and open the PDF, the date format is correct. However, when I submit the form to start the process, the incomming date fields to be mapped to my second Callable Object have change in format from "2009-02-18" to "Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 EST 2009".
This is true in the new form I receive via email, and also in NWA->monitoring->guided procedures when I check the instances. The input mapping is already set to the false formatting.
When I open the form from the second callable object with the incorrect date format (in designer), the date's display patterns are set to YYYY-MM-DD but are not being displayed as such.
New discovery....I tried to create a Business Logic callable object and format the date. I created a string input and date output and mapped them accordingly. When I perform a "TEST" from the design time and use the input "Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 EST 2009", the string is automatically converted to 18/02/2009 in the output, which is what I want to occur. The only problem is when I run the actual process, the same "Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 EST 2009" is being output instead of the 18/02/2009 in the TEST.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

The problem is that you are trying to put a DATE into a TIMESTAMP column. The DATE needs converting to a timestamp. This would be easier if you used external tables as you could do the conversion on the fly when doing an insert...select... from the external table, rather than relying on the outdated SQL*Loader functionality.

Problem with forms6i using Pre-Insert Trigger

I created a block level pre-insert trigger to do some validations and when I save the first time with wrong data it is working fine and popping up alerts that I defined but if I press save the second time it is saving even though the data is wrong.
This is in Applications 11.5.10 using all the property classes and running on the server.
I created exact replica of the form(no applications, property classes
just basic form but with same functionality) and ran it on my local machine it is working fine. It is giving error till the data is fixed.
Anybody know why?
Thanks in advance

It did not work. It is still doing the samething. Actually it is popping up my alerts but saving the record first time itself. Is there any way I can tell it not to save if the data is wrong. My code is below it basically pops up the alerts but doesn't tell anywhere not to save it.
Thanks

     v_amount number;

Writing PRE-INSERT trigger in CUSTOM.pll

Hi,
We need to write data in a staging table after every save of a Block Data on the eBusiness Center form. How can we achieve this? Can we write PRE-INSERT trigger in CUSTOM.pll.
Thanks for helping,
Regards,
Viral

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I was trying with Workflow Based Business Events. I am not sure how can I achieve the same with it.
I was thinking of doing the same using ALERTs. But, I think that is not Oracle suggestable method of doing it? If at all I am going to use the ALERTs than will it be real time?
Thanks for replying,

Pre-Insert Trigger not firing

Hi,
I am using Oracle 10G DS with Oracle 11G XE. I tried PRE-INSERT Trigger with the Code given by Mr Hamid. However, its not working. Though, the WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE works fine, I wish to use PRE-INSERT Trigger only.
Can you please help me.
My Code is shown below
BEGIN
SELECT asset_id_seq.nextval INTO :r_it_blk.asset_id
FROM dual;
END;
Thanks in advance
Ramesh

Hi Hamid,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I tried at Block Level itself. Further, I also tried the below Code with Cursor (Block Level). Unfortunately, it is also not working. Even the Error Message is also not displayed. The User has full privileges.
DECLARE
     CURSOR next_id IS SELECT asset_id_seq.NEXTVAL FROM dual;
BEGIN
     OPEN next_id;
     FETCH next_id INTO :r_it_blk.asset_id;
     CLOSE next_id;
     IF :r_it_blk.asset_id IS NULL THEN

Pre-insert-trigger ignoring assignments

Hi,
I have this code in a PRE-INSERT-TRIGGER of a database table block:
Select emp_seq.Nextval Into :EMP.EMPNO From dual;
Select Sysdate Into :EMP.LASTCHANGED From dual;
And i have this code in a PRE-UPDATE-TRIGGER of the same block:
Select Sysdate Into :EMP.LASTCHANGED From dual;
given scenario:
1) query records from the table into a block:
empno ename lastchanged
1 Smith 01.12.2008
2 Johnson 01.12.2008
2) change empname in any record except no. 1:
empno ename lastchanged
1 Smith 01.12.2008
2 Johannson 01.12.2008
3) create a new record somewhere above the changed record
empno ename lastchanged
1 Smith 01.12.2008
<null> <null> <null>
2 Johannson 01.12.2008
4) insert ename in new record
empno empname lastchanged
1 Smith 01.12.2008
<null> Obama <null>
2 Johannson 01.12.2008
5) do_key('commit_form')
with Forms 6.0.8.23.2 -> working fine
with Forms 6.0.8.27.0 -> ORA-01400:: cannot insert NULL into ("EMP"."EMPNO")
Any assignment in the pre-insert-trigger is ignored! Can anyone help me with this bug? Thanks in advance

message(:EMP.EMPNO) is always Null ...
Everything works if there's no update of a record with higher record-number in the transaction. But the scenario in post 1 doesnt work with Forms 6.0.8.27.0Ugh -- that's ugly!
Unfortunately, opening a Service Request with Oracle will get you nowhere, since Oracle no longer supports Forms 6i.
Yesterday, I experienced something very similar with the same version of Forms, specifically this part: Everything works if there's no update of a record with higher record-number in the transaction.*
If I updated a higher record number in the block, I could NOT get Forms to subsequently store a value in a column in a prior record. I would set the value in the column, and immediately display the value, and it was null! Fortunately in my case, the stored value was only to enable skipping a database lookup in a subsequent pass, so I just skipped working on a solution.
However, in your case, the problem is a show-stopper.
What I found was that if I navigated back to the first record in the block, the problem went away. So maybe try this in your commit process:
    Go_block('ABC');
    First_Record;
    Synchronize;
    Commit_Form;Let us know if that works for you.

Windows 8.1 Data reordering issue with Intel Adaptors

According to Intel, there is a data reordering issue with their adaptors and probably this dumb WIDI software. This is from Intel site. they say some are fixed, "A future Windows 8 fix will address this issue for other Intel wireless adapters." I
have one Nope, still broke. I get drops all the time. Brand new Toshiba laptop I7 16 gigs of ram and a SSD and a 2 gig Vid card. Would be nice to be able to play games but I get dropped all the time. Now would Microsoft quit hiding
about this, and fix the darn thing. Also i'm a system admin for 13 years. I have build over 1000 PCs and servers. I know bad software. Please fix this. PLEASE. Its not going to just go away and its not just Toshiba, I have seen other companies with the
same problem. If there is a Fix PLEASE POST IT. Or even a workaround I have tried everything.

Have your first tried the software fix under this link for your network adapter?

Yep didn't work. Still get drops all the time, had to run a Cat 5E cable to my laptop from my modem, because I have Atheros Gigabyte Lan adaptor. Works Great. The Wireless still drops all the time. Has Microsoft let out the patch to fix this or is it coming in
April in the 8.1 patch that's coming. Funny thing is all for Widi, I don't even use widi, I got the software to do that from Samsung works better on my TV. Intel and Microsoft need to get this fixed. because their driving off gamers and that's the
people that make sure they buy Microsoft so they can play games. With the wireless link dead and a great laptop worthless what's the point. Ive been in IT for 13 years building PCs and Servers how I knew how to run a 60 FT Cat 5e line thru
a 2 story house and terminate it. Most people don't. Fix the problem.

Pre-insert trigger is not firing after post built-in

Hi,
I have a 10g form in which Post built-in is used in When-button-pressed Trigger. After the post command I am checking some condition,by using the same record which I have posted.But it is not working.
I have also put the message in the pre-insert trigger but the message is not displaying.
But the same form iis working fine in form 6i, as I have migrated the forms from form 6i to 10g.

Yes, In that block there are other items also. I have made the required property no for all the items.
what exactly we have is
(if x=y then)on some condition check
POST;
After that, form have a select statement in which it is selecting the same row which is being posted above.
if the select statement gives count of row zero
raise form_trigger_failure is fired.
and in the pre-insert trigger form is assigning a value to a block item.

Do they all have to be set to the US format for this to work?
If this is a regional setting thing, do I have to change the format on all of the servers (CIAC components)?

Forms 9i & pre-insert trigger

Hi everyone,
We've just upgraded from Forms 6 to 9i.
My pre-insert trigger in 9i doesn't seem to be firing - is this something that has changed?
I need to set my unique ID's and other variables - is there a better place to do this now?
Please advise.
Thanks.
Lesley

No commit form has not changed.
The change in behavior that you are probably hitting is where required items really are required even if they are not displayed - this change came in a patch to 6i.
So I'm guessing that you have a key field which is required but not displayed to the user and you're populating a new key in pre-insert.
Because you've made the field required, the commit is failing before you actually get to pre-insert because a required field is not filled in.
So your solution would be to restore the code to Pre-Insert where it belongs and make sure that any non-displayed items are not marked as required.
Support have a Forms API program that can make this change on-mass for you if you have a lot of forms like this,
