Forms 10G properties
Hi all. Is there an on-line site which contains an item by item list of the properties in the various property palettes in Forms 10G? Some are self-explanatory, some are not.
Thank you in advance.
Robert Smith
so can use something like this:
declare
l_bg_color varchar2(30);
begin
if
get_item_instance_property ( 'block.item', record_number, visual_attribute ) not in ( 'DEFAULT', 'CUSTOM' )
then
l_bg_color := get_va_property (
get_item_instance_property (
'block.item', record_number, visual_attribute ), background_color );
end if;
end;

Forms 10g installed and running on Windows Vista
<font color=0000FF>Update 12-Dec-2008: </font>Oracle has published NOTE 559067.1 -- How to Install Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 - hence 10.1.2.3 - on Windows Vista, 24-OCT-2008 with some installation help.
<font color=0000FF>Update 07-July-2008: </font> Added text at the bottom showing how to find patchsets for Forms 10g.
<font color=0000FF>Update 29-May-2008: </font> This thread was started in November, 2007. In January, 2008, Oracle released Patch 3 for Forms 10g, which makes Forms 10g compatible with Windows Vista. As time permits I'll try to keep the information in this post up to date. Updated information will be inserted <font color=0000FF>as blue text.
</font>
<font color=0000FF>Original message begins here:</font>
This is a second thread I am posting to outline the steps I have used to install Forms on a Windows Vista Home Basic laptop. The other thread describes installing Forms 6i:
Forms 6i installed and running on Windows Vista
Please read through the initial part of that post for the background. I realize Oracle has not certified Forms 10g to run on Vista, but the time has come for my associates and I to upgrade our old computers to new desktop/laptop platforms, and I would hate to acquire XP machines and be stuck with them for the next 5 years. <font color=0000FF>(Note: Since first posting this message, Oracle has certified Forms 10g Patch 3 (version 10.1.2.3.0) to run on Vista)</font> So after another person informed me that he had Forms installed and running on Vista, I went ahead and bought one. I found that as long as I set the compatibility mode to run Forms programs as Windows XP (and a few other changes), Forms 6i and 10g run quite satisfactorily.
<font color=0000FF>Update 29-Jan-2008: </font> Unfortunately, it turns out that the Forms 10g Builder running on Vista <font color=0000FF>had</font> a major flaw: If you try to develop a form, the Builder will crash if you try to compile a procedure that calls another procedure in the form that has errors. The problem is reported and described in this thread: Error compiling a form under Vista
<font color=0000FF>Update 12-Mar-2008: </font> Installing Patch 3 on Vista does not help with this problem -- the Builder still crashes in the same situation.
<font color=0000FF>Update 25-July-2008: </font> Applying Patch 7047034 has corrected the problem. See this link within this thread: Forms 10g: Installing Patch 7047034 on Windows Vista
Webutil note: I am stuck in a Forms 6i client/server world, so all my forms must run in that environment. Therefore I have not used any Webutil software, and I do not know whether that part will run under Vista.
Internet Explorer note: On Windows Vista, IE CANNOT be used to run the Web Forms runtime. It crashes immediately when you try to run a form. Instead, I can use either Firefox (Firefox 2, Firefox 3.0 Crashes with Forms 10g) or Netscape, as long as they are set to disable java. <font color=0000FF>[ Correction: IE7 on Vista now runs the Forms 10g forms. You just need to add "?config=jpi" to the browser URL when starting the Web Forms session.

The Oracle Developer Suite download page:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ids/index.html
Oracle Developer Suite Installation Guide:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25016_07//doc/dl/core/B16012_04/toc.htm
The steps below are those I followed to install Forms 10g (version 10.1.2.0.2)
I. Preliminary system changes in Windows
When I started installing, I got the following error message: Install has encountered an error while
attempting to verify your virtual memory settings.
Please verify that the sum of the initial sizes of
the paging files is at least 256 MB.To fix this: Go to Control Panel, System and Maintenance, View amount of RAM and processor speed (under "System"),
Advanced system settings (in left "Tasks" column), Advanced tab, Settings (under "performance"), Advanced tab:
Virtual Memory shows a "Total paging file size for all drives: 2337MB.
Click "change", Uncheck "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives"
Click "custom size:", set Initial size to: 2048, Max to 4096
Click set button, then OK, get message:The changes you have made require you to restart your computer before
they can take effect.Restart the computer.
II. Installing Forms 10g
1. Download two files from Oracle:
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip (626,122,752 bytes)
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk2.zip (236,880,881 bytes)
2a. Before extracting, it is a good idea to shut down any virus protection software. It can sometimes prevent some files from being created.
2b. Extract both into the C:\oracle directory, as disk1 and disk2.
3. Using Windows Explorer, change the properties of setup.exe in the C:\oracle\disk1 folder. (In windows explorer, right click, properties, Compatibility tab.) Change the compatibility to run as Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
4. Right click setup.exe and click "Run as administrator"
5. Select "Installation type" = Complete (1.11 GB)
6. Received this message:Windows Firewall has blocked this program from
accepting incoming network connections. If you
unblock this program, it will be unblocked on all
public networks that you connect to.
C:\users\steve\appdata\local\temp\orainstall...
2007-10-29_11-59-08am\jre\1.4.2\bin\javaw.exeI clicked "Unblock"
7. Received this message: "Provide outgoing mail server information" I entered the smtp mail server that I use.
8. A summary screen displayed showing 274 products under New Installations.
I clicked the Install button.
9. Received this message: You can find a log of this install session at:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2007.....log
10. The installation completed. Installed products shows Forms 10.1.2.0.2
III. After the install completed
1. Create a shortcut to the Forms 10 Builder on the Desktop.
On the shortcut line, after the .exe, add *userid=userxxx/pwxxx@orcl* so Builder automatically logs into 10g database. If you do step 4 below (creating an easily-accessible folder to use for your forms) change the "Start in" path on the shortcut so it points to that folder. Otherwise, Forms Builder will not find referenced objects and PLL libraries when it opens a form. Also do the same on the Start, All Programs shortcut for the Forms Builder.
Edit: After applying Patch 3, the following steps are not necessary.
Set its compatibility to Windows XP.
Set checkbox: "Run this program as as an administrator." (Without this, FormBuilder will NOT open a PLL library.)
Click the "Show settings for all users" and change values there.
2. Copy "Start OC4J Instance" icon to desktop.
Set its compatibility to Windows XP.
The first time it runs, I got a Windows popup to unblock program named Java. I clicked "Unblock".
3. tnsnames.ora:
Rename C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
to: tnsnames_orig.ora
If you created a tnsnames.ora file for Forms 6i, just copy it to the path above. If not, do this:
Create a new tnsnames.ora file, copying entries old file on my old laptop, which contains all the connections I use.
Delete the old laptop entry, replace with new entry for the new local ORCL connection on new laptop from tnsnames file renamed from the c:\oracle\... ...\10.2.0\db_1\ path.
4. Optional: Create an easily accessible folder to store fmb files:
C:\users\steve\.1\fmb10
You don't really want to keep drilling into C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms, and then find your .fmb file among the several dozen oracle-supplied files.
To create a folder named .1, you have to open a CMD.exe (Windows DOS) window, and type the Make Directory command:
MD .1
That will create the folder within the current directory -- mine defaults to C:\users\steve
Note: If you also need to use Forms 6i like me, DO NOT EVER open a .fmb file in the Forms 10 Builder from the Forms 6i folder. If you compile it, or even worse, save the .fmb, Forms 6i *cannot ever* access the file. Instead, always use the File Manager (Windows Explorer) to copy the fmb from the fmb6 folder into the fmb10 location.
5. Change the Forms 10g Default.env file using a text editor.
This file replaces all the settings originally written to the Windows Registry (GREAT idea, Oracle! I hate the registry.) No more Regedit. The default.env file is located at: (DevSuiteHome_1 path)\forms\server\default.env
Locate line with: FORMS_PATH= and add:
;C:\users\steve\.1\fmb10
Add a new line:
FORMS_MMAP=FALSE
The above allows compiling an fmx while the form is running.
Add a new line:
FORMS_ROWLOCK_OPTIMIZATION=FALSE
(This fixes Oracle bug number 3949854, which prevents automatic skipping if the same value is typed over another value. TAR 4806199.993 Automatic Skip failure...) See bug 4068896
Add a new Line:
FORMS_RESTRICT_ENTER_QUERY=False
This allows use of Query-Where window in enter query, after entering a colon in any input field. Without this, Forms returns FRM-40367: Invalid criteria in field nnn in example record. Oracle shut it down to prevent "sql injection" attacks.
6. Jiniator setup:
Run file jinit.exe in C:\oracle\DevSuiteHime_1\jinit\jinit.exe
It installs Jinitiator 1.3.1.22.
I installed it in C:\oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.22\
For Firefox, make sure a copy of file \bin\NPJinit13122.dll resides in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins.
For Netscape, the path is: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Navigator 9\plugins
7. Browser settings
See the note above about using Firefox 2 and not Firefox 3!
In Firefox 2 go to: Tools-> Options-> Content
Uncheck the "Enable Java" checkbox
--Firefox terminates if this is not done!
Note: After my system automatically installed updates to either java or Firefox, re-check the "Enable Java" setting. I am suspicious that one of these installs re-enables java in the browser.
Also note: some web sites cannot display properly if java is disabled. Example: U.S. time website: http://www.time.gov Use Internet Explorer to view these.
In Netscape make the same changes as Firefox. Without disabling java, it also terminates when you try to run a form.
Creating a url to use in the browser:
Try this:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet
If it does not work, change the 8889 port number as follows:
Open file: C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\install\portlist.ini
Note the number in line:
Oracle Developer Suite HTTP port = 8889
Use the number as the port number.
You can also change the 127.0.0.1 to the computer name:
Control Panel, System and Maintenance, See the name of this computer (under "System"). Mine is "steve-PC"
So the alternate URL is: http://steve-PC:8889/forms/frmservlet
To try out the URL, start the OC4J instance set up above. Then start either Netscape or Firefox, and enter the URL. You should get a welcome screen.
If the above URL works, start up the Forms Builder, and open Edit, Preferences. On the General tab, uncheck the "Build before running" check box (optional). On the Runtime tab, set the "Application Server URL to the url above.
To run a real form, add this to the URL after frmservlet, (with no spaces):
?form={formname}&userid={userxxx}/{passwordyyy}@{connect-string}
but replace the parts in curly braces with the appropriate values. Example:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet?form=ABC&userid=abc123/zyx@orcl
Setting up Forms Builder to directly run a form in the browser:
Run the Forms Builder. Go to Edit, Preferences, Runtime tab.
Set the Application Server URL to:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet
(or use whatever URL string you developed above)
Set the Web Browser Location to:
"C:\Program Files\Netscape\Navigator 9\navigator.exe"
(or an equivalent to run the Firefox browser).
8. FORMSWEB.CFG file changes
The file is located at:
C:\ORA_DS_101202\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\server\formsweb.cfg
I changed the following two lines in the file, but these are my personal preferences:
separateFrame=true
lookandfeel=Generic
9. FMRWEB.RES file changes
For Oracle help: Enabling Key Mappings
The file fmrweb.res defines actions (triggers that run) when a function key is pressed while running Forms. The one released has unix-style key mapping, but I prefer keys originally mapped for Windows PC Forms users. There is a fmrpcweb.res in the same folder that can be renamed to fmrweb.res.
In the C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms path, I renamed fmrweb.res to fmrweb_orig.res.
I have a file that I prefer to use, so I put it into the folder as fmrweb.res. The contents are listed below. It is organized so the most important keys are listed alphabetically at the top (URFD column is the sort column), followed by a group of less-important keys. These are keys that are available to users, but they either would not use, or are disabled within most forms. The URFD column in the second set starts with a hex A0 character, which is a high-order space, so collates after normal alphabetic characters. (Note: If you want to copy the text below and use it, the hex A0 character has been changed by the forum software to a space. So you would need to use a text editor with hexadecimal character capabilities to replace the space with the original character. )
My file has special keys defined for F2 (I use it for a debugging Key-F2 trigger in my forms), and a "Cursor to Home" F12 function. All the rest are pretty much the same as in the released fmrpcweb.res file, only mine are organized alphabetically on the URFD column.
The Web Forms fmrweb.res file is editable using any programming editor (NOT MS Word!!!). The old Client/Server key mapping file, fmrusw.res, could only be changed using the Oracle Terminal program (and it is a pain to use).
Here is the main part of my fmrweb.res file:#
#Jfn :Jmn: URKS :Ffn : URFD

Two points, Steve:
1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?

How can i implement a doppel click im form 10g?
Hi all,
i want to implement a doppel click in my trigger in form 10g, because, wenn i start my form, it appears correctly on the canvas, but it disappears directly when i click the canvas when my mouse. it reappears when i doppelclik on the canvas.
Have you any ideas how i can resolve this problem?
thanks in advance for the answers.

I find that there is support for ONLY 256 color in Forms 10g. Is it a limitation and can we use more than 256 colors?
I want to enter r92g136b146 in canvas properties background color. It gives me an errror FRM-12305
Please help. Thanks.Forms supports 8 bit and 24 bit color spaces. It does not support 16 bit however.
The help file describes how you can define colors in a custom palette and load that. Note.37765.1 is also helpful.
Even though the notation you see in the property palette looks like a standard 24 bit rgb notation it is not. It uses percentages (and only discrete values, not 0-100) for each channel rather than values between 0 and 255. -
Hello,
I am using FormsGraph in forms 10g.
Now I need additional options - more visualized graph and dynamic graph - like in Flash.
Is there a way to achieve that using a java bean?
Is it possible to use flash inside a form window?
Thank you,

Forms 10g Installation issue on windows 7 Professional service pack 1
hi
I am trying to install oracle forms 10g 64 bit windows 7 Professional service pack 1 ..

But it failed but the error is ..
Checking operating system version: must be 4.0, 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2. Actual 6.1 Failed <<<<
just wondering if there are any workaround ..Christian is right - Forms 10g R2 (version 10.1.2.0.2) is not certified for installation on Windows 7. You must apply a Forms 10g R2 patch to bring the version to 10.1.2.3.0 for it to be certified. You must have a My Oracle Support account to obtain the patch.
Now, to your question - is there a workaround; the answer is yes. There are known issues with this installer. I'll list them and their workaround.
1. The Oracle installer checks for a specific set of Windows versions rather than check for a minimum Windows version.
Workaround: Right-click the Installer and select Properties. Click the Compatibility tab and click the checkbox: Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP SP3).
2. The Oracle Installer can't detect Windows Managed Virtual Memory (VM).
Workaround: You must temporarily change the Virtual Memory settings and specify specific Initial and Maximum sizes. See this Microsoft article for more information on changing VM settings. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/change-the-size-of-virtual-memory
This change will require you to restart your computer. After you have successfully installed Oracle Forms 10g, you can restore the original VM settings.
3. The Oracle installer MUST be installed as an "Administrator".
Workaround: Windows 7 uses "Least privileged user" so you must right-click the Installer and select the Compatibility tab. Click the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox.
4. Not a Oracle installer issue, but you will have to install the 32-bit version of the Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE) (1.6.0 - not 1.7.0) because Oracle Forms is a 32-bit application so it will not be able to use the 64-bit JRE.
Run the Oracle installer and it should now install succesfully.

Execute_query not showing the -WORKING ...- Message on Forms 10g
Hello,
There is a strange thing happening with our Forms that were migrated to 10g.
1) Our keys were remapped to the ones used in the 6i Version. For example: CTL+L is F9
2) When a user presses F7 and then F8, on Forms 6i, we have the sequence of message:
Enter a query; press F8, CTRL+q to cancel
then
Working ...
and finally we get the records.
However on Forms 10g, we have when a user presses F7 and then F8 :
Enter a query; press F8, CTRL+q to cancel
and the message -WORKING...- is not shown and after a while we get the records.
There are no message_level before the enter_query or execute_query and there is no :system.suppress_working in the form.
What could be the problem ?1) Our keys were remapped to the ones used in the 6i Version. For example: CTL+L is F9 Key mapping is controlled by the file fmrweb.res in path <DevSuiteHome_1 path>/forms/
Forms 10g is released with a unix style file where Ctrl+L is mapped to List of Values. There is an alternate file named fmrpcweb.res that maps F9 to List of Values. By renaming fmrweb.res to something else, and copying fmrpcweb.res to fmrweb.res, you will get the PC platform functionality.
You can edit the Web Forms fmrweb.res file using a text editor to tailor the function keys any way you need.
and the message -WORKING...- is not shown and after a while we get the records.Hmmm.... I tried that with a simple "default" test form, and indeed, the working... message does NOT appear, even when I set the Query Array size and Records Buffered properties to 1000 and queried a very large table. Why don't you open a Service Request with Oracle, and report back if you find a solution. -

end;
I had the 2nd code also but both r not working on my machine ......... !!
I have made the following setting on my machine:
1. Registry -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE-> ORACLE-> KEY_DevSuiteHome1->FORMS_PATH ->
Values is : D:\vision_soft\VSS\exe
2. Registry -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE-> ORACLE-> KEY_DevSuiteHome1->REPORTS_PATH ->
Values is : D:\vision_soft\VSS\exe
3. Entry made in the DevSuiteHome_1\forms\server ->default.env
FORMS_PATH=D:\vision_soft\VSS\exe
4. Entry made in the DevSuiteHome_1\reports\confr ->rwservlet.properties
#SERVER= rep10
As my forms is working well & but the report are not able to call.
Could you please let me know is there is any other mandatory setting required for the report 10g.

Passing parameter in URL (forms 10g)
Hi,
I'm using forms 10g (904) and I need to pass in a paramter when the form starts. I have created a parameter and it works when I debug.
But when I run it on Oracle Application Server, how do I pass the parameter in the URL? I have tried ¶meter_name=parameter_value, but it does not seem to work.
Thanks.
WJHi everyone,
When I tried the prior suggestion that parameter was not actually passed into the URL. Instead it is passed into the set of named parameters defined in the generated <Object> tag for the forms applet.
That is useful to know but what I want to do is permit the forms applet to access name-value pairs in the actual forms URL.
Does anybody know how this is done?
Also if anybody knows how to permit the forms applet to access client side environment variables (or even registry keys) without resorting to using java I would be grateful for the advice.
Basically it seems to there are several ways to access such values server side but I cannot find any way to access those values client side.
The task I have in mind is to load some properties which are configured on the clients' machine and which differ from client to client.
Thanks everybody,

Implementing java beans in forms 10g [Problem]
Hi All,
I am trying to implement the java bean in the forms 10g
I performed the following steps, but no luck.. Could anybody please help me in this?
I have created a simple java class
package mypackage1;
public class MyClass
public String GetString(String a)
return a;
Make a jar myjar.jar out of it.
Copy this jar files in $ORACLE_HOME/forms/java directory
and set the archive.jini parameter in formsweb.cfg to
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,Myjar.jar
Created a simple form having one button, one textbox
Set the implementation class property of text item to mypackage1.MyClass
on button pressed trigger, I wrote
set_custom_property('block2.text_item4',1,'GetString','Hello World');
Ideally, on button pressed, it should show the text "Hello World" in the etxt box. But on button pressed nothing is happening and in java console on error is appearing.
My java console output is
Loading http://asst104253:8889/forms/java/frmall_jinit.jar from JAR cache
Loading http://asst104253:8889/forms/java/Myjar.jar from JAR cache
proxyHost=null
proxyPort=0
connectMode=HTTP, native.
Forms Applet version is : 10.1.2.0
Could anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong?? And how do I achieve this functionality??
Please, any help appreciated !!Hi there
The is plenty wrong with this code:
1. MyClass is not extending VBean
2. There is no public boolean setProperty(ID ID, Object args) method and no property IDs have been defined so set_custom_property('block2.text_item4',1,'GetString','Hello World'); will not execute anything
3. If you're hoping to return values back from the bean, you need to define a custom event and associated ID.
If you're just looking for some java code to return values in a similar manner as normal Oracle functions then you may want to consider using forms java stored procedures which are based on static java methods. Beans are really more for interaction type stuff with other applications.
But any way if you want to do it this way (i.e. using beans) then at very least you class should look something like (Note, I have not compiled is so there may be a few errors):
package mypackage1;
import oracle.forms.handler.IHandler;
import oracle.forms.ui.CustomEvent;
import oracle.forms.properties.ID;
import oracle.forms.ui.VBean;
import oracle.forms.engine.Main;
import oracle.forms.engine.*;
import oracle.forms.handler.*;
public class MyClass extends VBean
// initiating event id
protected static final ID pgetString = ID.registerProperty("GetString");
// return value id
private static final ID preturnValue = ID.registerProperty("returnValue");
// return event id
protected static final ID preturn = ID.registerProperty("returnEvent");
static IHandler mHandler;
public String GetString(String a)
// may do some string manipulation here.
return a;
public boolean setProperty(ID ID, Object args)
if (_ID== pgetString)
if (_args instanceof String)
String myArg = (String)_args;
mHandler.setProperty(preturnValue,getString(myArg));
CustomEvent ce = new CustomEvent(mHandler, preturn);
dispatchCustomEvent(ce);
Keep your button as is and then to return the value back into forms place a WHEN-CUSTOM-ITEM-EVENT trigger on the bean area with something like this:
DECLARE
BeanValListHd1 PARAMLIST;
ParamType NUMBER;
EvenName Varchar2(20);
CurrentValue Varchar2(2000);
BEGIN
BeanValListHd1 := get_parameter_list(:SYSTEM.CUSTOM_ITEM_EVENT_PARAMETERS);
IF :SYSTEM.Custom_Item_Event = 'returnEvent' THEN
IF iD_NULL(BeanValListHd1) THEN
MESSAGE('NO PARAMETER FOUND FOUND');
ELSE
GET_PARAMETER_ATTR(BeanValListHd1,'returnValue',ParamType,CurrentValue);
MESSAGE('IN CUSTOM EVENT THE STRING RETURNED IS '|| CurrentValue);
END IF;
ELSE
MESSAGE('no value');
END IF;
END;
hope this helps

Forms 10G Replacing Oracle Logo in Menu Bar

Forms Applet version is : 10.1.2.0
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Using IE 8 and tried on IE 7 as well.
Oracle JInitiator: Version 1.3.1.22Oracle Jinitiator is not compatible with IE 7/8, you have to use the Sun JRE 1.6.0._16 or higher instead. Take a look at section *2.2 Oracle Forms Applications on Client Platforms* in the Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2) Certification Matrix.
After installing the Sun JRE 1.6.0, you will need to modify the %DEVSUITE_HOME%\forms\server\formsweb.cfg to set the correct JRE version information. Make the following changes:
# System parameter: base HTML file for use with JInitiator client
#-- Original
#baseHTMLjinitiator=basejini.htm
#-- New
baseHTMLjinitiator=basejpi.htm
#-- Original
#jpi_download_page=http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_06/index.html

# -- New (this entry specifies update 16)

# OR, you can instruct OAS to use any version of Sun JRE 1.6.0

Forms 10G - How to switch between Arabic and english languages.
Hi
We have a bilingual ( ENGLISH , ARABIC) form .Some of the text feilds are to be
filled in english and some in arabic . In forms 6i
the switching from LTR and RTL worked fine .We used the feild properties and
direction and language would suffice to get the required behaviour of forms.
Now in forms 10g since they work in a browser its not getting the desired
effect of changing direction in arabic feilds the cursor blinks at the right
side of the feild but still the language is english .
What am i missing here to have the feild in the form type in arabic .
PS numbers work fine .Its only the language text ie the script of the languageYou can't switch languages in OS X programs, just in the OS itself. Insert the Leopard OS X disc, and choose your new preferred language when prompted.

Hi,
I have created a new form using forms 10g . When I click run form it opens Internet explorer and displays some html codes.
Can anyone help what needs to be done.This URL
http://mypcname:8889/forms90/f90servlet
should display a page that says "Installed Successfully".
If this is not happening and you are receiving a host address not found error message, then I think mypcname may not your correct host name. If you are running Windows XP, your host name can be found by right clicking on My Computer -> Properties -> Computer Name tab. The Full Computer Name will be your host name. Do you recall whether you were asked to provide the hostname during the install? If you provided the wrong host name, you may need to reinstall.
