Displaying text in bold weight using PL/SQL

I am trying to display some text using PL/SQL. I would like it to display in bold, but I haven't been able to find anything that will work. I tried using htp and htf which supposedly creates html tags, but I couldn't get that to work properly. I also tried the srw built in package. My code currently looks like this:
function CF_NUMBER_HOLESFormula return Char is
begin
return('NUMBER OF HOLES LOGGED: ' || :number_of_holes);
end;
And it only displays if the variable number_of_holes is not null. I want it so that 'NUMBER OF HOLES LOGGED' is bold but the actual output from the database is not.
Thank you,
Amanda Stephano

Hi Alison
One approach could be:
Instead of using a PL/SQL formula, follow any one of the two ways suggested above by Vinayak / Sripathy, and make only your Text Bold.
Then go to the Property inspector of the fields that you have created, and in all the fields (wherever you want) - whether it is a repeating frame, or a boilerplate text or a data field, you choose "Conditional Formatting" from the Property Inspector and do the following:
New.. > If the value of: > Number_of_holes > Null > Hide the Object.
This will print the whole text + number only whenever the number is Not Null.

Display data in log file using PL/SQL procedure

Just as srw.message is used in Oracle RDF Reports to display data in log file in Oracle Apps, similarly how it is possible to display data in log file using PL/SQL procedure?
Please also mention the syntax too.

Pl post details of OS, database and EBS versions.
You will need to invoke the seeded FND_LOG procedure - see previous discussions on this topic

Displaying text in different languages using smart forms

hi,
I am working on smartfroms.
I have to display the text in different languages using smartforms.
how to proceed ?
thanks,
Aruna.

To Display in Different Languages:
Smartforms:
In the Smartform you create:
In General Attributes, in Translate, select the radiobutton 'Into Selected Languages' and specify the lang for which you want the translation to be available.
To translate:
Go to SE63.
In menu, Translation -> ABAP Objects -> Other Long Texts.
In the Object Type Selection window that appears, expand FS ( Forms and Styles) and choose SSF (SAP SmartForms)
Specify your form name in Object Name and select the source and target lang and click on Edit button.
In the editor screen specify translated text in the lower half.
After you are done, click on Save Active button.
To view your form in the translated language, specify that language when you login.
SAPscripts:
Goto SE76.
Specify the script name, source and target language. Click on Create/Change button.
Specify all the translations. Click on release.
It will prompt you to translate window contents.
Double click on the window and translate the contents. When you are done, the Translation Status will become COMPLETED. Click on Release again.
(You can edit and check too)
Now when you preview by choosing the desired language, the translated script is displayed.
Hope this helps

Reading Text file & Updating table using PL SQL Procedure

Guys, I am trying to read data from a large text file which
contains tab delimited data. Based on success of validations, I
have to insert/update data in to table(s). Does any one has any
sample procedure to read data (tab delimted/comma seperated)
from a text file and write to database table? Your help is
greatly appreciated!

Is there any particular reason why you're not using SQL*Loader
for this? Otherwise you would seem to be re-inventing the wheel.

How to open a htmlwebpage by using pl/sql?

my problem is how to open/invoke a existing webpage by using pl/sql.Because I want to do a authentication function,and write a procedure to varify the user ID and password.If they are valid,a welcome webpage can display,otherwise a eror message/webpage will be invoked.
My question is how to display the error message to the webpage or to open a webpage which display the error message by using pl/sql.

I think you may be in the wrong forum, but anyways...
What I think your looking for is the htp.print('insert html here'); function. It's plsql, and writes out html to the web server that calls it.
if you search for htp.print you should find loads of examples.
hope this helps.

Typekit font (Arvo) only displaying in bold weights...

Hi, I began a site with the Muse free trial. At the end of my trial I bought a subscription. However, I've ran into a fairly significant issue with typekit now that I've subscribed. For some reason, it will only display the font Arvo ( https://typekit.com/fonts/arvo ) in it's bold weights. It doesn't matter whether I choose to use Arvo regular or Arvo bold, it only displays as bold. Same goes for the Italic as well, only bold italic not the regular weight.
Is there any fix for this?

Creating new text boxes and typing new text fixes the issue. Now I just have to recreate dozens of text boxes and enter all of the text in fresh.
I'm curious as to what caused the problem though. Also, if that text is copy/pasted into any new text frame the font weight for the new text frame locks to bold and becomes unchangeable.
Not sure if it's relevant, but none of my text frames were behaving this way before I applied my subscription; the trial was probelm free for me.
Alright, the issue was that the text frames had bold applied to them, however I didn't apply that to any of them. They looked markedly different in my project using the trial than they did when I upgraded to the full subscription. I now know this is because bold was randomly applied to all of my text boxes. Is this a known issue?
Sorted now though.
Many thanks,
Chris

Aren't these rules equivalent to "Monday this week, where Monday is the first day of the week"? In which case the PL/SQL Expression you require is:
trunc(sysdate, 'iw')For example:

How to generate formated (defined position) text and image using pl/sql and

Hello,
I need to use pl/sql to create a dynamic html page (or image , if possible) with defined positions for text and bar code. It is necessary because the page will be printed and it should be able to be read by one other process , OCR, that needs to have all the data in defined positions.
Any suggestion are welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Emilio

I don't think it's that easy. Notice that if you put the insert into an actual pl/sql block, you don't get the correct column pointer anymore.
BEGIN insert into bob(col1, col2) values (123.12, 12345.12); END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allows for this column

Can text be displayed in a formula column using mathematical functions?

I am working with Financial Reports version 11.1.1.3 and I'm trying to accomplish the following scenario:
Column D is a data column
Column E is a text column containing the value "TEXT"
Column F is a formula column with the following formula: IfThen([D]=0,[E],[D])
What I want to see happen is if the value in column D is 0 then I want the value "TEXT" to appear in column F, otherwise; I want to show the data value that is in column D. Is it possible to display text in a formula column and if so, what is the syntax for that? Or does anyone have another way to accomplish this? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Short answer: No.
For your particular issue, I would suggest putting your TEXT value in the #zero and #missing overrides in Report Studio.
In general, Hyeprion Reporting does not do any real text validations or functions like you could use in Excel.
