Forms 9i on windows

Hi,
I am having a problem with using forms9i in windows.
Currently i have installed both oracle developer suite as well as the database as shown below.
d:\Oracle\ora9i -> Database Installation.
d:\Oracle\oradev9i -> Developer Suite Installation.
Though the database is up, when I try to connect to it using forms, I get the error ora 12514 listener not available. Though I can connect to the database using anyother tool like Toad, MS-Excel.
Could anyone tell me wht Step I should be taking?
Regards,
R

Hi,
did you configure the network/admin/tnsnames.ora file of the Developer Suite installation with the database tnsnames entry?

Help Installing Forms 11G on Windows 7 64 Bit

I am trying to install. I installed 64 bit Java JDK, Weblogic generic server, and finally Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer (11.1.1.2.0). When the Portal, Forms, Reports, and Discover install get to step 6 of 16, it reports: INST-07408: Unable to install or configure the product on a 32-bit JVM on a 64-bit machine. Note that the error seems to be a complaint against a JVM, not a JDK. Does anyone have a fix?

Problem in installing Forms 6 on Windows 2000

I have problem in installing forms 6 on windows 2000.
Please advise me.
null

Hello,
I've been using Dev 2000 ver 6i for several months sucessfully on Win 2K RC2. The compiled .fmx's work fine with the ver 6.0 runtime environment under NT 4.0.
The only problem is that the Forms Server won't work till the 1st patch set comes out
(only Oracle knows when!) , so you can't test or deploy the forms as web apps on Win 2K yet. OAS 4.0 appears to work ok on Win 2K.
I have been using the Beta version of Dev 6i and will upgrade to the release version eventually, probably when the patch comes out.

Is it possible to open the Task Form in new window?

Hi,
For the Oracle Business Process Workspace (BPM 11g), when opening a work item, is it possible to configure out the Workspace to open the Task Form in new window instead of opening in the bottom section under the work item list?
Thanks

"your project folder in workspace"\webRoot\webResources
under the above path, you will have img folder and place the image containing your custom logo.
under the same path you will have src folder
in that folder you can place your custom css file (eg. mycustomstyles.css) and you need to define your styles in this file
you can call the style items for the presentation objects at design time for labels and all other objects. But do not forget to refer your custom css file in the properties section.
Once you open the bpm presentation object in which you want to apply your css, in properties pane you observe four options in CSS sub section of properties. Here select the CSS file with webroot path and give appropriate styles to each presentation data objects.
hope this is clear to you.

SOS I am in trouble Installing Forms Server on Windows 2000 Server

I need advice on installation of Forms Server on Windows 2000 Server. Is Forms Server only meant for Windows NT. Since Windows 2000 Server is an extention of Windows NT there could be a way out which I am not aware of. On installation of Forms Server I get message that Forms Server components can work only on Windows NT 4.0 Service pack 5 or higher. Please Help
Thankyou

Hi,
Did not try W2000 Adv Server.
However...Forms Server 6i runs on W2000 Pro in combination with patch1

Open form in separate window

Hi gentlemen
I have parent form include button this button when the user press it, it will call the other form but in same window (that what I don’t want)
My question is how I can open another form in separate window (same as when you open it alone)

Use open_form..
Read the help in Form builder for the open_form built-in... Pay particular attention to the 'SESSION' or 'NO_SESSION" argument. Pick your flavor.
For every application that I have ever made including and above Forms 5.0 I always use...
open_form('myform', ACTIVATE, SESSION);
This opens a form up in its own window, gives it focus, and makes a new separate session.

Smart form in another window

Hi all,
Can it be possible to display Smart Form in another window rather than main screen (screen of report calling to that smart form).
please let me know.
regards,
vikas.

TO call a Smartform, we have to call its corresponding F/M.
Here what you can do is, before calling this F/M, set a custom screen and Call that screen first. (say, Call Screen 9000)
Then in the PBO of that screen 9000, call the Smartform F/M.
Do let me know if this worked for you.
Pranjal.

Multiple forms in multiple windows within application

hi,
our user wants to be able to open more than one form in multiple windows within the application and have them within the application window at the same time. we are planning to use open_form instead of call_form to do this. however open_form does not let me specify the query mode, so i guess will have to do that manually? what does Oracle recommend as a best practice for applications - to support mutliple windows or not? if yes, as call_form or open_form?
thanks.

Yes using open form you will have to manually (in code) switch into Query Mode.
We recommend Open Form over call form as it is more memory efficient, of course there are situations when the behaviour of Call Form is useful but generally I'd encorage the use of open.

How to run oracle forms 6i on Windows 7

Hi guys,
Is it possible to run forms 6i on windows 7 .

spilgrim wrote:
Do you mean develop Forms6i or run them using the JRE?I think the question was about the Forms runtime.
The server mode was a rare approach.
Running a Form - I couldn't say as I don't see 6i applications anymore ... probably given the JRE would workThere should be a lot of clients still. Well, I have no reliable statistics though.
Supporting legacy applications is always a tough question.
I'd prefer a dedicated hardware (server) for this occasion.

Forms 10g in windows xp 64bits not run in portuguese

Good evening,
I have a Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 installed on windows xp 32 bit and
only putting in regedit NLS_LANG BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE_BRAZIL.WE8ISO8859P1,
it is in Portuguese.
On another machine with Windows XP 64-Bit did the same operation and he continues
in English.
Unico in detail and that it is in 64 bits in regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/WOW6432NODE/Oracle instead of 32bit which is in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SOFTWARE / Oracle
Someone from the forum is in forms 10g and windows xp 64bit can use in Portuguese?
I appreciate any assistance.
thanks

If you are talking about runtime (in a browser), NLS settings must be made in default.env and not in the Registry. If you are talking about the Builder, it is not supported on 64bit Windows.

Ctrl+Z does not work in Forms 11g on Windows (undo function)

In Oracle Forms 11g on Windows, the undo function, ctrl+Z does not work as it did in Forms 6i.
The ctrl+C and ctrl+V (copy/paste) work fine.
I looked into the Forms key mapping resource file and no solution there.
Thanks

I'm not sure what functionality you believe you had previously, but UNDO does not have any automatic functionality built-in. This is clearly explained in the Builder Online Help. Here is some of that text. Notice carefully what it says about "Undo":
<blockquote>Magic Item Property
<blockquote>Description_
Specifies one of the the following predefined menu items for custom menus: Cut, Copy, Paste, Clear, Undo, About, Help, Quit, or Window. Magic menu items are automatically displayed in the native style for the platform on which the form is being executed, with the appropriate accelerator key assigned. Cut, Copy, Paste, Clear, Window, and Quit have Built-in functionality supplied by Oracle Forms, while the other magic menu items can have commands associated with them.
Usage Notes_
The following settings are valid for this property:
Cut, Copy, Paste, Clear
These items perform the usual text-manipulation operations. Oracle Forms supplies their functionality, so the designer may not enter a command for these items.
Undo, About
These items have no native functionality_, so the designer must enter a command for these items. Any type of command can be used for these items, except Menu.

To run Forms 10g on Windows Mode

Is there possibility to run Forms 10g on Windows mode, not on Web ?
Thanks.

If you want to test your forms locally there is an OC4J component with the Developer Suite which can be started so you can run your Forms on your local station. This is no client/server but you run your webforms local.

Issue creating Item Activated Events for a third party form Control in Windows Powershell

I was asked at work to look into converting some of our VB.Net Applications to PowerShell. We use the
QIOS dev Suite for some of the controls to make it more visually appealing. I have been testing to controls out and I can load and create forms with no issue in powershell but I'm stumped on the error I'm
receiving when I add and ItemActivated event. I need to make it so when a user clicks on a given menu Item the form gets which menu item is clicked.
Below is the code to my test form.
[VOID][reflection.assembly]::Load('System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089')
[VOID][reflection.assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Code\Qios.DevSuite.Components.dll")
[System.Windows.Forms.Application]::EnableVisualStyles()
$form1 = New-Object 'System.Windows.Forms.Form'
$Menu = New-Object 'Qios.DevSuite.Components.QCompositeControl'
$item = New-Object 'Qios.DevSuite.Components.QCompositeMenuItem'
$DOSOMETHING={Write-Host "DO SOMETHING"}
# form1
$form1.Controls.Add($Menu)
$form1.ClientSize = '202, 262'
$form1.Name = "form1"
$form1.Text = "Form"
$form1.add_Load($form1_Load)
#MenuItem
$Item.ItemName = "Test Item"
$Item.Title = "Test Item"
# Menu
$Menu.Location = '13, 12'
$Menu.Name = "panel1"
$Menu.Size = '177, 238'
$Menu.Items.Add($Item)
$Menu.Add_ItemActivated($DOSOMETHING)
$form1.ShowDialog()
If someone could take a look and tell me what I'm doing wrong that would be great. If you need the dll file below is a link to my copy.

I was able to get the attached code to work in windows 7 with powershell version 2. I have to see why it dosent like windows 8 and powershell version 4.
Update: I just did powershell -version 2 in windows 8 and I was able to run the code.
[void][reflection.assembly]::Load('System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089')

$frmMain = New-Object 'System.Windows.Forms.Form'
$ccMenu = New-Object 'Qios.DevSuite.Components.QCompositeControl'
$ccitem = New-Object 'Qios.DevSuite.Components.QCompositeMenuItem'
$Function = {
param ($sender, $e)
[System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show($e.Item.ItemName)
$frmMain.Controls.Add($ccMenu)

$ccMenu.Name = "panel1"
$ccMenu.Size = '177, 238'
$ccMenu.Items.Add($ccitem) | Out-Null
$ccMenu.Add_ItemActivated($Function)
$ccitem.ItemName = "Test Item"
$ccitem.Title = "Test Item"
$ccitem.Configuration.StretchHorizontal = $true
$frmMain.ShowDialog()
