Display the return of a function in a field

Hi,
I'm new to oracle reports. I basically have written a fuction that will return a date. However i want to display this date on the report but can't see how. When i select a field on the layout editor and go to the property palette and then go to source - i look for my function but it is not there - only the database fields are.
Does anyone know how do i go about this ?
Thanks

thanks to user451185. That seems to be working - can't believe i'm getting nearer to a solution in creating these ID cards. Does anyone know anything about creating bar codes on reports ?

  • How to display the return message in popup window

    Hi Experts,
    In WDA i want to display the return message through popup window.
    Regards,
    M.Chella Meenal.

    hi Chella Meenal ,
    you can generate the popup using popup factory class also , look at the below sample code for displaying message in a popup , and you can do your own configurating like visible , enable the buttons you want ..
    data:
        lr_component type ref to if_wd_component,
        ls_conf type wdr_popup_to_confirm,
        lt_texts     type string_table.
      ls_conf-window_position = '1'.
      ls_conf-button_1-text = 'OK'.
      ls_conf-button_1-icon = 'ICON_OKAY'.
      ls_conf-button_1-enabled = 'X'.
      ls_conf-button_1-visible = CL_WD_UIELEMENT=>E_VISIBLE-VISIBLE.
      ls_conf-button_2-visible = CL_WD_UIELEMENT=>E_VISIBLE-NONE.
      ls_conf-button_cancel-visible = CL_WD_UIELEMENT=>E_VISIBLE-NONE.
      lr_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
      append 'some text' to lt_texts.

  • How to display the return value of a function in a text field

    Hi,
    I have 2 textfields in a page.
    i> Empno
    ii> Salary
    The requirement is,
    i. Enter an Employee No.
    ii. On click of the 'SUBMIT' button a process would be executed which calls a function (or procedure with out parameter) which returns the Salary of the given Employee.
    iii. Need to display the salary to the 2nd textfield (Salary).
    Here is my process:
    i. If procedure call-- :P2_X is a page text field and out parameter.
    begin
    Pri_test_PROC(:P2_EMPNO,:P2_X);
    end;ii. If Function call --
    begin
    :P2_X:=Pri_test_PROC(:P2_EMPNO);
    end;
    Issue:
    The process is not getting executed and returning the process error message.
    Could anyone please give me a pointer, how to overcome the issue. Or if this is not the right way, then what is the work around.
    Regards
    Antara

    Antara,
    1. Clue about the error - yes, when I see the error message.
    2. What happens if you try to create a procedure like this:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE fetch_sal (in_emp IN NUMBER, out_sal OUT NUMBER)
    IS
    BEGIN
       FOR c IN (SELECT sal
                   FROM emp
                  WHERE empno = in_emp)
       LOOP
          out_sal := c.sal;
       END LOOP;
    END;and then run this in SQL Plus:
    DECLARE
       v_sal   VARCHAR2 (20);
    BEGIN
       fetch_sal (7839, v_sal);
       DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (v_sal);
    END;What do you get displayed?

  • How to display the copyright string (c) in a text field ? 

    Hello,
    I'm using a text field in which I want to display the
    copyright symbol (c) : the letter "c" in a small circle.
    I tried this :
    texte.text ="&copy BRAND"
    but it doesn't work.
    Can you help me ?

    Thanks Raymond,
    Your answer does work when I use the following code :
    this.createTextField("my_text1", this.getNextHighestDepth(),
    10, 10, 100, 100);
    my_text1.text = "\u00A9 brand";
    but it does not work when I import the same text from a XML
    document and want it to be displayed in the box field on the stage,
    using this code for example (texte is the name of my box instance)
    var menu_xml = new XML();
    menu_xml.load("menu_brands.xml");
    menu_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
    menu_xml.onLoad = function() {
    texte.text =
    this.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].attributes.brand;
    Actually in this case, the text that is displayed is :
    \u00A9 brand
    which means that the \u00A9 code seems not recognized as the
    copyright symbol.
    Can you explain this ?
    And can you tell where does the code \u00A9 come from ?
    Thank you again.

  • How to get the returned value from Functions with Callable statement?

    I was glad to find that stored procedures can be invoke with Java class code by the object of Callable statement like :

  • LOV Displays the Return Value when Read Only

    Greetings,
    I searched for a question/answer for this, but didn't find this exact scenario mentioned, but I may have missed it. If you know of this already been asked/answered just point me to the thread.
    On APEX version - 4.1.1.00.23
    I have a LOV that is populated by a dynamic action from another LOV. That works great. Depending on the value of another page item the 2nd LOV is Editable or Read Only. The problem is that when the 2nd LOV is Read Only the result value (an ID) displays instead of the display value.
    1 - Why is this?
    2 - How do I prevent this from happening?
    Also, I don't want 2 separate page items (one for edit, one for display) for the 2nd LOV, because the 2nd LOV also has a dynamic action on it to populate a 3rd LOV. The population of the 3rd LOV works great, whether the 2nd LOV is editable or read only.
    = = = = = = = 2nd LOV SQL = = = = = = =
    select sub_com_desc||' - '||commodity_desc d, defect_code_header_id r
    from qcis_defect_code_header
    where inactive_date IS NULL and plant_id = :P10_PLANT_ID
    order by sub_com_desc
    = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
    Thanks, Tony
    Edited by: cloaked on May 8, 2013 12:11 PM

    I've decided to try a different approach. Since the Select List LOV was Read Only and not populating correctly it was causing a session state error when inserting the row. So, I've made the Select List LOV editable, but it shouldn't be. I now need to disable the page item using JavaScript to prevent it from being changed. I need to do so only when a page item contains a certain value.
    Will someone share an example of JavaScript snippet of code I need to use? (I'm not much of a JavaScript coder.)
    The page item I need to disable is named - P10_DEFECT_HEADER_ID
    I need to disable it when P10_MAP_TYPE = 'P'
    Thanks, Tony

  • Remote Object - not able to get the returned value from java method

         Hi ,
    I am developing one sample flex aplication that connects to the java code and displays the returned value from the
    java method in flex client. Here I am able to invoke the java method but not able to collect the returned value.
    lastResult is giving null .  I am able to see the sysout messages in server console.
    I am using flex 3.2 and blazeds server  and java 1.5
    Here is the code what I have written.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><mx:WindowedApplication  xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" backgroundColor="#FFFFFF" initialize="initApp()">

       <properties>    
        <source>SimpleRemoteObject</source>
        <scope>application</scope>
       </properties>
      </destination>
    Please help me .

    You are not able to get the returned value because if you see the Remote object help you will realise you have to use result="resultfn()" and fault = "faultfn()"
    In this you define what you wish to do.
    More importantly in the remote object you need to define which method you wish to call using the method class like this
    <mx:RemoteObject id="remoteObj" destination="sro" result="r1" fault="f1"  >
         <Method name="javaMethodName" result="r2" fault="f2"/>
    <mx:RemoteObject>
    r2 is the function where you get the result back from java and can use it to send the alert.

  • How to get the values returned by a function in a drop down?

    Hi All,
    Can anyone please help in getting the values returned by a function into a drop down? I have a java class file where in i have written a function called getWeeks() which give all the week dates and i want to display these week dates in a drop down box in a JSP page.
    Please help me in this regard.
    Thanks in Advance!!
    Lakshman.

    Hi Lakshman,
    the following code can help you do what you want :
    <hbj:dropdownListBox id="calendar" tooltip="Calendar" selection="<%= selected %>">
    <%
    String[] weeks = myObjectBean.getWeeks();
    for (int i = 0; i < weeks.length; i++) {
    %>
         <hbj:listBoxItem key="<%= i %>" value="<%= weeks<i> %>"/>
    <%
    %>
    </hbj: dropdownListBox>
    The <%= selected %> snippet allows you to pre-select one of the options (provided that the variable 'selected' is equal to one of the listBoxItem keys).
    You can also add onSelect to the tag (e.g. = "setSelectedItem"). It corresponds to a method in the corresponding JSPDynPage class. This means that when you select another item in the dropdown list, the method in your Java class is performed (allowing you to save the selected value and performing actions with it)
    I hope this helped you enough,
    kind regards,
    Frederic
    Edited seven times by: Frederic Taes on Nov 5, 2008 11:24 AM -> the onSelect element was in the hbj tag and in the text with "='setSelectedItem'" next to it and when I tried to post my message, I got a 501 error all the time ! Seems like a SDN bug to me ...

  • Display text (returned by function) after tabelar forom submit...

    Hi guys...
    Is there any possibility to display text returned by function after tabular form submit?
    If yes please tell me how :)
    With regards,
    PsmakR

    The value of the selected row's Display column ("Choice B", for example) is not stored in the field -- only the value of the selected row's Value column ("2") is. With the DDLB's item list loaded the form is able to translate "2" (Value) to "Choice B" (Display) so you see "Choice B". With the DDLB's item list empty there is no way to translate "2" to "Choice B" so you see "2".
    If you do not want to save the DDLB's item list with the form you would need to preserve the selected row's Display column in another, possibly hidden, field then use that to display the translated Value.

  • How to Access the Return Value of a Function

    Hi,
    How do I access the return value when calling an Oracle function from .NET using Oracle.DataAccess.Client? The function returns an integer of 0, 1 or 99.
    Dim db_command_oracle As New OracleCommand()
    db_command_oracle.Connection = db_connection_oracle
    db_command_oracle.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
    db_command_oracle.CommandText = "swsarsi.import_appointments"
    Dim ret_value As New OracleParameter()
    ret_value.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Int32
    ret_value.Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue
    ret_value.Size = 2
    ret_value.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Int32
    db_command_oracle.Parameters.Add(ret_value)
    Dim IN_student_id As New OracleParameter()
    IN_student_id.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Varchar2
    IN_student_id.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input
    IN_student_id.Size = 10
    IN_student_id.Value = student_id
    db_command_oracle.Parameters.Add(IN_student_id)
    db_command_oracle.ExecuteNonQuery()
    messagebox.show(ret_value) ?????

    Your ODP.NET code looks correct. What error are you seeing?
    One thing that will definitely generate an error is that .NET message boxes require that strings be displayed. ret_value is a parameter object. You need to access its value and convert it to a string. At a minimum, you need to change that.
