Form in Execute Query Mode

Hi ALL!
How can I show a form (created by wizard) with record returned by query?
To Kelly Cox ([email protected]): You wrote earlier: "There are a couple of posts in the 9iAS Portal Applications Forum that address this requirement.
--Kelly"
I still have the request (even after advanced search perfomed): Can you show me the address any of them please?

Take a look at Portal FAQ (http://otn.oracle.com/products/iportal/htdocs/portal_faq.htm)
You'll find some details under the 'Building Applications' link.

10g Form - first execute query - very slow

I have the following issue:
Enter an application
open a form in enter query mode
first time execute query is very slow (several minutes)
every other time it's quick (couple seconds or less)
I can leave the form, use other forms within the app, come back and query is still quick. It's only the first time after initially launching the app.
Any ideas what might be causing this?

We have the same application running in 6i client/server DB-9i in production. We are testing the upgraded application that is 10g forms on OAS DB-10g. We don't have the issue in the current production client/server app.

Set search text when form is in query mode

Hi forum members,
is it possible to set the value of a textfield when a form is in query mode?
In our form you can enter query mode with F7 and execute the query with F8.
When you go back to query mode with F7 and then press F7 again, the search criteria of the past query appears.
Now in our form there is an alternativ search, that can be executed in query mode with F9. A different search canvas appears then with a more detailed search.
When I go back from that canvas to the initial canvas, change to query mode with F7 and try to get the last search criteria with F7, not the last search criteria (from F9 search) appears, but the first one (F8 search).
I have tried to copy the search value into an invisible textfield and then copy it back to the search field when F7 is pressed after the alternative search canvas was closed.
Instead of appearing in the search field, a new record is created in background.
Is there any other way to set the value of a textfield in query mode?
Thanks,
Marco

Hi Craig,
thank you for this hint.
Unfortunately it does not solve my problem.
My goal is to fill the search fields with values when they are in query mode.
I try to explain it step by step:
Step 1
- In my Form I change to query mode with F7.
- I fill a search field, e.g. Name: TIGER.
- Then I execute the search with F8.
- Record is displayed in the block
Step 2
- I press the F7 Button to change to query mode again
- Now when I press F7 again, the search values from the last search (TIGER) appear (I think it is a standard forms functionality, isn't it?)
- I execute the search with F8
- Record is displayed
Step 3
- Again I change to query mode with F7
- I fill the search field (this time Name: SCOTT)
- Now advanced search is executed with F9
- A special search canvas opens over the form with result records and more detailed information to the result
- I close the search canvas
Step 4
- Again I change to query mode by pressing F7
- I want to get the search value from the last search (SCOTT) by pressing F7 again
- Value from the first search appears (TIGER)
My goal is to save the search value from step 3 anywhere (in a variable or copy field or something) and get it back in step 4 when the form is in query mode.
It seems to me that it is not possible to fill fields that are in query mode, is that right?
Thanks a lot!

How do I set form automatically in query mode

Hi !
I have to pass value of one field as parameter from one form to
another form and then execute the query on the next form based
on the passed value of the parameter. (all this should happen as
soon as I press one button on the first form).
My problem is that unless I put the second form in the enter
query mode before accepting the value of the field, whatever
value I pass on from the first form will not be of any use.
How do I set the mode of the form to query mode. Since
system.mode is the read only variable and no value can be
assigned to it, so how can I handle this situation ?
Thanks in advance,
Shobhit

Hi Shobhit,
Try ENTER_QUERY command in the PRE-FORM trigger of second form.
EXECUTE_QUERY in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE and set the parameter
values to the respective fields in PRE-QUERY trigger.

FRM:41361 Cannot navigate out of form in 'Enter Query Mode'

Hi,
I am using a master - detail block in my form.When I query the master block I am getting this error message
FRM:41361 Cannot navigate out of form in 'Enter Query Mode'
I have given DO_KEY('ENTER-QUERY') in WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger of master block.
and in property palette of Master block I have given the next navigation block as Detail block.
According to the value which is queried in Master Block the Detail block should be populated.
My form should open in 'Enter Query Mode'.This problem always happens from second time onwards
I open the form.When I open the form first time this problem is not occuring.
Can anyone suggest a solution for this
Thanks,
Nasiya

Have you written a Key-EntQuery trigger at the Master block or the form level,
If yes, then can you put that code here.
The NEXT-NAVIGATION-BLOCK is only used for navigation when you use a next-block built-in on a key-trigger.
Have you written a ENTER-QUERY command on any trigger that fires prior to the said WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger?
If yes, then thats the reason that the first time you run the form, your form is in ENTER-QUERY mode.
Also, maybe execute on enter-query fails and hence the blocks are not getting populated.
Also, ENTER-QUERY is always on a single block. And while the block is in enter-query mode, navigation out of that block is prohibited.
you have to either have a successful EXECUTE-QUERY or use:
EXIT_FORM(NO_VALIDATE) to come out of ENTER-QUERY mode.

Calling form in Enter-Query mode

Hi
how can i Have a form called from the menu (generated with
headstart) start in Enter-Query mode ?
Is there any method to do this easily ??

Olivier,
Look in the Headstart Template Package users guide. In the
Runtime Behaviors chpt, under Inter-Form Navigation, Named Passed
Values and Argument Passed Values, you will find an explanation
of how to start a form in Enter-Query mode.

GETTING FORM OUT OF QUERY MODE (URGENT)

I have a form which start in Query mode, user enter in say employee ID. If that employee exists than user bring its record else create a new record.
What I did is start in query mode, when user enter employee ID, I check to see if record exist, if it does then I just use EXECUTE_QUERY. Now I don't know what to do for new record. If I use CREATE_RECORD that doesn't work because form is in query mode. How can I make form come out of query mode programmically?
I am using Form 5. Trigger I am using is KEY_NEXT_ITEM in Employee ID field.
Need urgent reply
Thanks

Well Faisal, I have tried this code on the EMP table in the user Scott. I think it will solve your problem
use the key-next-item trigger
declare
empid emp.empno%type;
begin
select empno into empid
from emp
where empno = :empno;
clear_block(no_validate);
set_block_property('emp', default_where, 'empno=' | | empid);
execute_query;
set_block_property('emp', default_where, '');
next_item;
exception
when no_data_found then
next_item;
end;

Starting form in Enter-Query mode disables some buttons on Smartbar

Whenn I run a form (on the Web) which starts in Enter-Query mode, the buttons "Execute Query" and "Enter Query" are disabled on the Smartbar. Also the corresponding menu options are disabled. Besides, it is psossible to use the appropiate keys (in my case: F7 and F8).
Has anyone experienced the same problem and is there a solution?
Let me know.
Thanx

Frank: Thats what i thought too -but i saw (in other Sources) that it could be done, but how..
Eugeniy I Duzhinskiy:
So, many Thanks to you. It works fine !!!!
(Its great to see there are some other Forms Users out there :) )

Form * search in query mode

in enter-query mode, i want the form has to return in
the field of name [fra* ]. means it has to
return all the names started in fra. i need in the form6i at query mode. is there any one solve it pls.
-nasar

The standard forms behaviour would be to use % instead of a *.
If you like to change this behaviour you can write a pre-query trigger where you replace the * by a #, so that Oracle is able to execute the correct query.
eg.
:BLOCK.ITEM := REPLACE ( :BLOCK.ITEM, '*', '#' );

FRM-41361 Cannot navigate out of current form in Enter-Query Mode

Hi All,
I am getting the FRM-41361 error in the bottom message area when opening a form from the function navigator. The issue does not exist when opening the form from the application homepage. The form is loaded in enter-query mode, and the enter_query command is in the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger. I have checked all triggers that fire after this point for any type of navigation but do not see any. The interesting thing is, if I put a fnd_message.set_string and fnd_message.show just before the enter_query call to debug, the issue goes away entirely.
Is it possible there are security triggers firing after the form is loaded into enter-query mode that could be causing this and that the fnd_message calls are indeed buying time for those triggers to complete before the enter_query call?
Any help/advice is appreciated. Thanks!
Dan

Yes, when I looked through the triggers I made sure to look for go_block and go_item calls as well as any calls to leave the form.

Calling another form when current form is in query mode

I have a form that is in query mode. When I select a menu option that calls another form through new_form, I get the error 'FRM-41009: Function key not allowed. Press Ctrl+F1 for list of valid keys.'
I would like trap this error, cancel the query and invoke the new form. I have tried to do this by code similar to this:
if :system.mode = 'enter-query' then
exit_form ;
end if ;
new_form('someform') ;
(since exit_form in query mode is supposed to cancel the query).
But in this case, the trigger ends with the execution of the 'exit_form' statement.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,

I think the following will work:
When you call the EXIT_FORM builtin, Forms cancels out of Query Mode but also stops the current PL/SQ execution - which is annoying.
I believe, though, that the WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED trigger will fire on your Form. Therefore, you can:
1) Set a Global Variable or PL/SQL packaged variable just before you call the EXIT_FORM builtin then
2) Test the value of the Global Variable in the WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED trigger and perform the CALL_FORM there.
3) Even better, put the CALL_FORM and associated parameters into a Program Unit on the Form - then you can call it from either the original trigger or the WWA trigger as necessary.
If this does not work, you could resort to:
1) Set a Global Variable just before you call the EXIT_FORM builtin
2) Initiate a TIMER
3) Call the EXIT_FORM builtin
4) In a WHEN-TIMER-EXPIRED trigger, check the value of the Global variable. If it's set, Call the Form you want to call
5) Again, put the actual CALL_FORM in a Program Unit so it can easily be called with the correct parameters from wherever you need to call it.
It's annoying that you need to go to these lengths to perform what seems to be such an easy task!
If anyone knows any better ways of achieving this, please add another reply!

Starting a Search Form in "Enter Query" mode

JDev 11.1.1.3 Windows 7 x64
I have a page flow with 4 fragments - the first is a search form to look up the person.
I need to enter this form in the "Find Mode (enabled)".
I have tried using the method of dragging the "Find" from the iterator as the default item and linking it to the first fragment but this has no effect (it still retrieves the first record from the DB).
I created an invokeaction - (preparemodel) this works for the first time - but not any other (seems to block the execution of the find button).
I am not sure if this is a bug in 11g - but in my mind (find.execute) seems to indicate that it is doing what it should.
I am not inserting any data - just retrieving a record.
Anyone solve this before?

Hi,
maybe this will help you

How to invoke Standard BOM form in pre-queried mode?

Hi,
I need to invoke the Standard Oracle BOM form from a custom form developed.
I have the Bill Sequence ID, Inventory Item ID and the Organization ID available in the custom form.
Currently this is how I am trying:
fnd_function.EXECUTE
     (function_name => 'BOM_BOMFDBOM',
     open_flag => 'Y',
     session_flag => 'N',
     other_params => 'BILL_SEQ_ID="'
     || l_num_bill_seq_id
     || '" INV_ITEM_ID="'
     || l_num_inv_item_id
     || '" ITEM_ID="'
     || l_num_inv_item_id
     || '" ORG_ID="'
     || :parameter.org_id
|| '" G_QUERY_FIND= "'
|| 'TRUE'
     || '"'
The form does open up. But not pre-queried for the Bill Sequence I pass to it.
Can anyone please let me know if I am missing something.
Thanks a bunch,
Vinay.
