Dynamic multi-row SQL :: doesn't work in Forms?

I need to use a dynamic SQL statement and was at first trying to
use the DBMS_SQL, which is overly complex. So I read up on NDS
and thought that it would be much better to use.
Unfortunately, Forms (6i) refuses to accept the correct syntax.
ie:
OPEN plr_cv FOR 'select foo from bar';
returns an error:
"Encountered the symbol 'select foo from bar'
when expecting one of the following:
select"
plr_cv has been defined as per the examples in the Oracle
documentation (as a ref cursor). Even a cut-and-paste of code
from the Oracle Docs won't work. Why won't forms let me use NDS
here? Is there a workaround?

Did you ever get this to work. I tried using dynamic sql but this does not work in FORMS 6i.

To build CD's???
What problem does Encore have with DL?
If DL is not working properly for you the way around this is to export from Premiere to either mpeg2-dvd for DVD or BluRay H.264 for BD-disks and import the files in Encore.

Reset_image_prefix.sql doesn't work

Hello,
My DB has two instances with two different versions of apex loaded. One is version 4.1.1 (working fine) and I decided to upgrade the other from 4.1.1 to 4.2. I created a new location entry in the httpd.conf file in my ohs instance to point to the new 4.2 instance referencing a new image Alias on the server. When I installed APEX 4.2 I pointed the images directory parameter to the new Alias 'i42' but it doesn't work. All of the applications are still referencing /i/
I did run the script reset_image_prefix.sql with /i42/ as input parameter, but the applications are still referencing /i/.
There was a similar discussion in October 2012 and Patrick Wolf wrote about a bug# 14785456.
But the BUG seems not to be fixed?
After executeing the script Iget:
SQL> select text from dba_source where owner='APEX_040200' and lower (name) ='wwv_flow_image_prefix';
TEXT
package wwv_flow_image_prefix
is
g_image_prefix constant varchar2(255) := '/i42/';
end wwv_flow_image_prefix;
4 rows selected.
Is there any workaround?
regards,
Carola

Hi Carola,
which exact version of APEX 4.2 are you using? Are you using the last 4.2.2? Because that includes the fix you referenced. After installing that version or the patch set, we will automatically clear all application level image prefixes if they are identical to the current instance image prefix. So in your case you should set the image prefix back to /i/, install the patch set and then call reset_image_prefix again to set the instance setting to /i42/.
Joel has some useful information on this blog (YABAOAE) Yet Another Blog About Oracle Application Express: Image Prefix changes in Oracle Application Express 4.2.2
Some background information about reset_image_prefix.sql. That never changed the image prefix used in applications, only the image prefix for our Builder application.

Dynamic adding of components (doesn't work when programmatically)

Hi, I don't understand, why this doesn't work. I'll explain it on this example:
import java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class NewFXMain extends Application {
    Group root;
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Application.launch(NewFXMain.class, args);
    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World");
        root = new Group();
        Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250, Color.LIGHTGREEN);
        Button btn = new Button();
        btn.setLayoutX(100);
        btn.setLayoutY(80);
        btn.setText("Add button now");
        btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
            public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
                addButton();
        root.getChildren().add(btn);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.setVisible(true);
        System.err.println("Number of buttons before: "+root.getChildren().size());
        ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor executor = new ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor(1);
        executor.schedule(new MyTask(), 5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    private void addButton() {
        System.err.println("Button adding");
        root.getChildren().add(new Button("YEAH"));
        System.err.println("Number of buttons after: "+root.getChildren().size());
    class MyTask implements Runnable {
        public void run() {
            addButton();
}There are two ways how a new button can be added. Either by clicking on existing button or programmatically by the program itself after 5 seconds.
If you add it by button, there is no problem. The error print is:
Number of buttons before: 1
Button adding
Number of buttons after: 2
But if you just wait, then the error print is:
Number of buttons before: 1
Button adding
and no button is added. In fact, the error printing after the adding isn't performed either.
I'd like to ask if there is some solution for this because I'd love to do some changes by schedulers. Thx

No, these are not error messages, they are just for purpose of example. Here it doesn't matter whether err or out... (yes, 'out' would be better ;)
But thanx, it's working. By the way, I am creating scheduler for task lists. They are supposed to be printed dynamically in specific time (or periodically). For example: at 5 o'clock I need to print 5 items of some list and every 3 hours I need to print 3 items of another list etc. - so it's quite dynamic with regard to component adding (No, I don't want to use some sort of ListView, I want interactive printing: one item on screen at a moment). I'll try to work your solution into my code.
Edit: So either it's not possible to use this for the purpose of my app or it will be really cumbersome. Maybe it would be easier to draw some rectangles with mouse listeners...
Edit: So I finally got around it. In the end, I won't use dynamic adding as intended. It's working and that's important.

Hover table row style doesn't work in IE

I found a great way to create a rollover effect when you
hover over a table row, by giving the row a class of "resultsRow"
and using the following rules in my stylesheet:
.resultsRow {
background-color: #EAEEB1;
.resultsRow:hover {
background-color: #D2DE56;
This works perfectly in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in
Internet Explorer, which is what most of our audience will be
using. Does anyone know a fix for this in Internet Explorer?

As you've seen, IE is ancient and doesn't support it. You can
do it
pretty easily with JavaScript:
<style type="text/css">
.resultsRow {
background-color: #EAEEB1;
.resultsHover {
background-color: #D2DE56;
</style>
<tr class="resultsRow"
onMouseOver="this.className='resultsHover'"
onMouseOut="this.className='resultsRow'">

Multi-Select LOV doesn't work where 1

I have a form with 1 master & 2 detail blocks. Each of the detail blocks has an LOV, & I'd like both to use the multi-select LOV facility within Headstart. However, this doesn't work if there's > 1 multi-select LOV within the form, for these reasons -
1. If there's > 1 multi-select LOV, you have to include reusable module component qms_msel_lov_buttons for each. As this is reusable, you can't edit the name. Therefore you have duplicate block names, therefore generator discards the names specified in Des2K & uses default block names of MC0, MC1 etc.
2. Headstart code in qms$init_application sets the lov block prefix to ML_. At runtime, the form fails with FRM-40104: No such block: ML_MC1.
I can't see any way of influencing Des2k's choice of block name, short of copying the reusable component into a specific component. Is there any workaround in Headstart you can suggest, to make this facility work?

Cheryl,
You are correct, you must make a specific copy of the reusable module component to work around this. I will record this as an enhancement request for future releases. Thanks for the info.

Financial Reporting with supporting details row suppression doesn't work

Hi,
I've a report on Planning data with a conditional suppression on Row (Advance Set-up ) and it works exactly as I want. When I activate the supporting details and run the report... the suppression does NOT WORK ANY MORE.
Can somebody help me ????
Esample of the report (I have 3 dimension in the row):

I want to suppress in the Total Account all the rows with Activity and Work on leaf level.
Condition of suppression:
Level ACCOUNT > 0 and
( Generation ACTIVITY > 2 or Generation WORK > 2 )
Without supporting detail it works, with supporting detail not. What's wrong ?????

SQL Code not working in Forms Developer?

Hi all,
I'm using Oracle 10g and I have th following code running on iSQL+ but not working on Forms and I got the following erro
The SQL code:
     select returningreason
        from (
                 select returningreason,
                 dense_rank() over (partition by 1 order by count(*) desc) as drnk
                 from returned_goods
                 group by returningreason)
       where drnk = 1;And the error happens near the word over to the right and the error statement is:
Error 103 at line 18, column 19
   Encountered the symbol "(" when expecting one of the following:
         , formThanks in advance :)

Triggers are compiled in forms so need to use only the features available to forms, which doesn't include all the new stuff in the database.
select over partition
NVL2They don't work in forms and reports too.
Also if you use them in record Group
Forms/SQL Compiler was not lined up to the database(10G).
Meanwhile,for example. Pipelined TABLE and relative Select work in Reports AND Forms.

Submit button doesn't work when form is uploaded to website

I created a form with a submit button that works well when I open the form from my documents. However, once I upload that same form to my website, the submit button doesn't work. Any ideas how this can be fixed?

If the form is opened in the browser, it is probably using the browser's built-in PDF viewer (e.g., Chrome and Firefox), which likely does not support the submit action. It's possible to disable the built-in viewer and configure it so Adobe Reader is used to view the PDF and the submit button should work. This will be something each user would have to set up, so providing instructions is a good idea.

Multi-select LOV does not work in forms

the multi select LOV does not work in the form.
the LOV works individually but in the form it does not work. it does not allow multiple selection from the list.
is there a workaround for this or is this a bug ...?
any ideas ...?
thanx a lot.
null

Right, we cannot store more than one value in a single column in a table :), we were getting a lot of requests to support multiple select LOVs but requirements were contradictory if not mutually exclusive.
The only sense it makes is when used together with user-defined object types (nested tables for example) but the current [application building]infrastructure we have does not support this. However, we are looking into this and this feature maybe implemented in a future release.

Binding dynamic variable in XQuery doesn't work: ORA-00932

I have a table with several columns. One of those columns is a XMLType.
My goal is to have a query which selects rows from the table of which the XML column matches certain criteria.
I'm trying following example (JDBC) : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28369/xdb_xquery.htm#insertedID11
First, I created my own query, which looks like:
select * from MyTable t, XMLTABLE( xmlnamespaces (DEFAULT 'http://test), 'for $i in /RootElement where $i/SubElement[contains(Element, "someValue")] return "true"' passing t.xmlColumn)This works as expected. Next, as done in the example, I'm trying to replace the "someValue" with a dynamic variable.
Query then looks like:
select * from MyTable t, XMLTABLE( xmlnamespaces (DEFAULT 'http://test), 'for $i in /RootElement where $i/SubElement[contains(Element, $val)] return "true"' passing t.xmlColumn, :1 as "val")This does not seem to work, neither in SQLDeveloper nor in java.
I always get the :
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CHAR(SQLDeveloper just gives ORA-00932)
When I put $val between quotes (so "$val") then I get no error, but then I get no results either.
I think it will not replace $val in that case but just use it as a literal, so thats not what I want
I also tried to remove "contains" xpath and use the exact same example as on the oracle page
select * from MyTable t, XMLTABLE( xmlnamespaces (DEFAULT 'http://test), 'for $i in /RootElement where $i/SubElement/Key = $val return "true"' passing t.xmlColumn, :1 as "val")But this doens't help either.
I'm clueless about this, so any help would be appreciated

However, on 10.2.0.1.0 and 10.2.0.3.0 it gives this error.

I installed all of these as normal without any special settings, created the tables and ran the query...

Parameter gets reset and Multi-value parameter doesn't work

Hi
Two Issues:
I've set the value of a Date parameter (Start Date) when moving from the home screen (Report 1) to the next screen (Report 2) as the first day of the current year (DateSerial(Year(Today),1,1). In report 2, if I try to change the Start Date to another date,
it gets reset to the first day of the year. I had the default value set as the first day of the year and even after removing it, the Start Date gets reset.
I've set a multi-value parameter (Area) in Report 1 that collects four integers. I pass Area to Report 2 (through Join (Parameters!Area.value,",")). I also used SPLIT (Join (Parameters!Area.value,","),",") to get the value.
Then, in the data set, I call this parameter as "Select A1,A2,A3,B1,B2,B3 FROM TEST_VIEW WHERE ID IN (?)". But this query throws an error that the query could not be executed. I ran the same query on the server side and it runs fine.
Note:
We cannot reference parameter names as @area for example because the Composite Server doesn't allow that.
Split and Join operate on strings but my parameters are of integer type. Is this an issue?
Please help.

1. Are setting an expression for available values of parameter in report 2? Is the value you pass a valid among the set of values?
2. IN wont work with comma separated values. You need to parse the individual values out using a string parsing udf as a table and then join to that
so in your case you would be like
Select A1,A2,A3,B1,B2,B3 FROM TEST_VIEW t
INNER JOIN dbo.ParseValues (@Area,',')f
ON t.ID = f.Val
ParseValues UDF can be found in below link

Multi-row "Drag and Drop" works for some users, not others

      Background: We are working on Win7 SP1 clients, Project Prof. 2010, SP2
      A couple of users have reported that they cannot move ("drag") multiple selected rows in a task sheet, only a single row at a time. Other MS Project users around them (and myself) can move multiple rows with the "Drag"
feature. "Drag and Drop" is selected in the "Options/Advanced" section of both their local global template and the Enterprise Global.
     To my knowledge, the multiple row selections contain no collapsed summary tasks, in case that might be an issue.
     I'm suspecting some Windows setting is amiss on the offending clients, but wanted to see if anyone else had seen this behavior before in Project Prof. 2010.
     Thanks!

    Thanks for the response, Shiva!
    User community is on MS Project 2010 (14.0.7011.1000) SP2, MSO (14.0.7128.1000)
    To reproduce the problem, MS Project user will select multiple task rows by selecting first row, then holding MB1, and "sliding" to the last row desired. The problem manifests itself by NOT turning the cursor into the "four-arrow cross"
after selection is accomplished. If only one row is selected, the ability to move that row alone is available.
     Again, only a couple of users (that have called me!) are seeing it. Their officemates are not having an issue.
     FYI ...

Dynamically setting column width doesn't work all the time

I wanted to dynamically set the width of a column in a JTable to be half of the width of a another column. This should happen whenever the frame is resized. But somehow I need to tell this twice to Java. If I don't then sometimes the column width isn't set new.
Is this a Java bug or what?
public void componentResized(ComponentEvent ce)
     try
          ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(5)).setMaxWidth(ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(1)).getWidth() / 2);
          ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(5)).setMinWidth(ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(1)).getWidth() / 2);
          // Again, or it won't work:
          ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(5)).setMaxWidth(ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(1)).getWidth() / 2);
          ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(5)).setMinWidth(ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(1)).getWidth() / 2);
     catch(SQLException e)
}

Is it possible that your call to
ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(5)).setMinWidth(ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(1)).getWidth() / 2);
is altering the response created by
ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(5)).setMaxWidth(ref.table.getColumn(ref.rsmd.getColumnLabel(1)).getWidth() / 2);
? Have you tried calling them once but in the other order? Or just calling the "setMaxWidth" call twice and leaving out the second "setMinWidth"?
Good luck... :)
