Forms builder layout questions

Hi guys
I have three questions on forms builder:
1. Is there a way to evenly space records? I see all the allign features but not arrange evenly. It really takes a lot of time to space 10 fields evenly vertically
2. Is it possible to have a fram with an auto tabular layout that is vertical instead of horizontal? What's the use of being able to adjust the block but the form is always vertical when you use tabular format?
3. Is there a way to have the layout autogenerate again? I can see it works when I move a frame in a simple canvas, but I use the same datablock across multiple tabs. If I assign the block in the frame, then it will autoload all items into my single tab.
Thanks for any assistence.
I guess what I'm suferring with is the 'old school' forms developer. I'm on 6i. Is there any better layout features in later releases? Maybe any other tools to generate a form? (I'm pushing my luck now :-) )
Regards

Hi Andreas
Ok I found the menu now: Arrange-> Allign objects. And then there's DISTRIBUTE for both vertical and horizontal.
Ok, that will save me a lot of effort :-) Thanks!
Question 2:
- I have my Data Block's Record Orientation set to Horizontal. But the Frame completely ignores it. The Frame's Layout style is Tabular. So when I UPDATE LAYOUT to auto-layout my page there is no different if I toggle the Record orientation between horizontal and vertical.
Question 3: Ok, it seems like UPDATE LAYOUT will autogenerate the layout only if you have the frame linked to a datablock. My problem is this: I have 3 tabs (too many fields for a singe tab). I'm still deciding which fields should go to wich tab. Every time I add an item to a new tab, I have to manually position it within that tab. I cannot make they program quickly auto-layout the tab with the additional item.
Missing features:
I'm missing a few hotkeys. Don't like using the mouse so much :-)

Oracle Forms Builder 10g Questions

Good day everyone,
I want to start off by saying that I'm very new to Oracle Forms Builder (it was dumped on my table about a month ago) and I'm having some issues I need resolved in order to complete a project for a client.
I'm looking mainly for documentation or resources that will show me how to do the following in Oracle Forms Builder 10g:
* Use either the ENTER button or mouse click to navigate between mandatory fields in a form (currently only TAB works)
* Populate a field[s] after pressing a search button based on a SQL query
* Populate a field[s] on launch based on a SQL query
* Throw a warning message if an SQL query returns with a specific result
* Populate a drop down menu based on a SQL query (ie only show valid options to user)
* Remove static highlighting (fields should only be highlighted if necessary, which is never on this particular form)

I've been able to reduce my problem down to the fact that Oracle Forms Builder 10g is not configured correctly on my machine for my environment. I can seem to get Oracle Forms Builder to see my libraries. When I load the form I'm working on I get the following error:
FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects.
Source Module:utlf_gui
Source Object: TOOLBAR_MDI
+... (many more of the one above)+
I press ok and get the following error:
FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library sdsl. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.
+... (many more of the one above)+
From my various searches on the internet I've learned that this is because Oracle Forms Developer can not find the listed PL/SQL libraries and I should check my Environmental variables. I've set up two Environmental variables with the following:
Forms_Path = C:\<project path>\Lib\ (This is the folder in the project folder where all the PL/SQL libraries are stored)
Forms90_Path = C:\<project path>\Lib\ (This is the folder in the project folder where all the PL/SQL libraries are stored)
I created both Environmental variables because there wasn't any consistency on the sites I was checking to which was needed.
Also if I try to attack a PL/SQL library I get the following error:
Attached library name <name> contains a non-portable directory specification. Remove path?
I press yes or no and get the following error:
PDE-PLI038 Cannot open file for use as a PL/SQL library.
Any help is much appreciated.

Hello Christoper,
I'm experiencing the same problem when displaying the Layout in the Form Builder, it was working fine until today. The error message is similar to what you have reported. I wonder how you fix it, appreciate if you could share your resolution, thank you..

Question about Find and Replace PL/SQL option in Forms Builder

Dear All
I have a small question .
I am using Find and Replace PLSQ/SQL in forms Builder ( Edit - Find and Replace PLSQL) to search any code in a form.
Let say I am searching for EMP .
Then all the places is coming where EMP is used as well as EMPloyee , EMPloyee_Desc tables also coming .
So is there any way to serach only the EMP part .

If you look closely to the right of the "Find What" field, you should see a button - "Expression". This allows you to add some logic to your search. Alternatively, depending on how you code, you could just look for spaces. For example, if you are looking for EMP and not EMPLOYEE, search for EMP with a blank space before and after it (assuming you code this way) or use something like this \bEMP\b This would work for me because I code the same way I write sentences - each work is separated by spaces.
<blockquote> EMPLOYEE := EMP || ' - ID';</blockquote>
In this example, seaching for EMP with a blank space after would find what I wanted. However, if you only search for a trailing blank, you may end up also finding words like tEMP. This is where have a blank space before each word is helpful.
Other, more valuable expressions could be written to accomplish your task. Refer to the Forms Builder Online help for more information about using Expressions in the Find and Replace search window.

Hierarchical Tree Items question, in Oracle9i forms builder ^^;

Hi,I'm kind of new to using the Hierachical Tree item in Oracle9i Forms builder. so anyway,in the book it was explaining how it's done clearly,but, what I want to do using that item is kind of different;
in the book it has the way of making it like a navigator for the items/fields/tables in the database,either by creating a view for those fields by using Select Statements or using the whole table itself.
however,what I'm trying to do is to have that tree list the names of Forms I have already created and probably the list of Reports I got,so it would sort of like a Menu and I could add a trigger to open the form/report once an item in the tree is double clicked on
here's an example of what I'm talking about :
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/_Crzy_Chck_/Htree.jpg
sorry the screen shot isn't the best ^^;
that's from a company my friend works at,they have that tree as a menu for their forms and reports,once u double click on a form name or a report,it opens up ^^;
I tried google/yahoo,I got the same info I found on the book.

Or you may want to check out this code:

   END next_menu;tree_item contains the name of the tree item you are using. the select statement is based on a table that is like EMP, where one EMP van be another EMP's manager. In this table a menu-option can be another menu-option's master.
this is a recursive function that keeps calling itself untill the query finds no more record.
Good Luck!

Font & box alignment issues in form building

Hi There,
I am trying to update our application page however I did not orginally build the page and I have very little experience with forms.
What I need help with is:
1) How can I increase the font size for all field names thoughout the form e.g. First Name, Middle Name etc, House #, Suburb/State, Current Employer etc etc ?
2) Some fields display out of line with one another e.g. 'Martial Status' and '# of Dependents', 'Years' and 'Months'. These fields line up fine in DW but obviously do not display correctly - how can I fix this?
These issues appear to be only happening in IE - I currently use IE8 and I only assume the issues will be the same in previous versions, if not worse.
The link for the form is: http://www.lombardfinance.com.au/dev/card_newsite.html
If someone can help me that would be much appreciated!!
Thanks!

1) How can I increase the font size for all field names thoughout the form e.g. First Name, Middle Name etc, House #, Suburb/State, Current Employer etc etc ?
Why do you have a tag around each <label> tag's contents?
<label for="firstName">Applicant 1 First Name:*</label>
Removing that would help make the label contents larger, and it could be that this would be all you need.
With regard to the layout question, I'd like to see you fix these validation errors before tackling that. I feel it's wasted effort to try to troubleshoot layout issues on a page with invalid HTML....

System takes long time to Save/Activate using SFP Form Builder

We are planning to customize the Travel Expense PDF Form PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM in ECC 6.0 using transaction SFP FORM BUILDER (ABAP Workbench). As the initial step we copied it into Z form and started the changes. Here is the problem: Even for a small change on the Layout, system is taking long time to complete the process.
For example:
For Saving the changes: 6 to 7 minutes
For Activating the changes: 12 to 13 minutes.
On the server side :
we are on ECC 6.0, SAP NW04s SP 9 for EA-HR
ADOBE LiveCycle Designer 7.1 (Patch 3 applied).
On client machine :
we have SAP GUI 640 Patch Level 21,
ADOBE Reader 7.0.9.
Client machine has 1 GB RAM & 40 GB Hard Drive.
Thanks in Advance for the quick reply.

Forms Builder - form not pulling the data from the DB into the datablock

I'm working on a school project, and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if something is wrong with my setup.
I created a basic form, 3 fields, and ID, firstname and lastname
the wizard connected fine, pulled the three fields into forms builder
I setup a canvas - type content with the a form format layout of the three fields.
saved the form.
When I run the form and it's displayed, nothing gets pulled into the fields (all blank).
Shouldn't it pull at least the first row from the table?
it says it's on record 1/1
XP, Oracle 10g, Form builder 10.1.2,
I'm not getting any errors
I want to get this basic form working first, before I start adding to it, and it doesn't seem to want to cooperate.
I've done the same steps as in the tutorials....

I did find that, if I put data in the ID, first and lastname on the form, and click Execute & Save on the Menu, it does add it to the database.
Maybe what I'm missing, is how do I get the form to read from the database when it starts up?

Error while opening Adobe Form Builder

Hi all,
I am trying to open an existing form in Adobe Form builder (TA SFP).
When ever I display a standard form say FP_TEST_01 and go to the layout tab, I get an error saying Error occurred in communication with layout editor. I am using ECC 5.0 system.
Am I missing any configurations?
We have all the required configurations set as mentioned in Configuration guide. (Required for ABAP stack).
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance.

Forms builder crashes when opening any pll

Hi,
I have gotten this problem that my forms builder crashes immediately when I try to open any pll file. (There is nothing wrong with the pll file - my colleagues can open these files with no problems on their computers). It crashes before the pll file is even remotely loaded - almost as if it encounters an error during the parsing of the pll file.
I have no problem opening and editing fmb files in my forms builder.
This problem has not always existed but it came all of a sudden one day and since its been impossible for me to open a pll file and its getting annoying :P
I run:

I tried deleting everything under D:\ORA6i where its installed and then reinstalling it - but the problem is still there.
Does anyone have an idea about what could be wrong - because I am clueless atm. - could it be some registry settings that somehow got changed maybe ?
Edited by: [email protected] on Sep 3, 2008 5:06 AM

I have encountered various issues like this with Forms 6i over time and have tried numerous things to fix them - including complete uninstall of all Oracle products and reinstalls and the one thing I found to work best was to run a Registry Cleanup tool. I had the best success with Microsoft's RegClean.exe tool (originally released as a PowerTool), but it is getting harder to find now that Microsoft has desupported it and pulled it from their web site. There are a few places where you can still get it; www.cnet.com, www.zdnet.com, and www.majorgeeks.com just to name a few. Other Registry Tools will probably work fine as well, but this is the one I have history with. I did not have 100% success by cleaning the registry, but 50 to 75% of the time it fixed the issue without having to uninstall and reinstall Oracle Forms.
Disclaimer: Please exercise caution when doing anything with the Windows Registry. The smallest change could have serious effects. Always backup the registry or create a restore point with System Restore before you make any changes to the Registry!
Hope this helps.

Can't run form from Form Builder 10g - Port configuration problem?

Hi,
I have installed the Database (10.2.0.1.0) and the Developer Suite (10.1.2.0.2) on two Linux machines (Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES 4 Basic).
If I enter the frmservlet-URL manually everything seems to be fine.
In one case I enter http://127.0.0.1:8890/forms/frmservlet, in the other http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet; in BOTH cases I get eventually a dark square and the status bar says "Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main started".
HOWEVER, if I create a simple form with Form Builder and click on the Button with the green traffic light ("Run Form"), the form runs only on the machine where frmservlet listens on port 8890.
On the other machine (frmservlet configured to listen on port 8889) Firefox pops up, the URL "http://127.0.0.1:32979/6dOrpwghCqnp8PhMT7KVT533m3IaArqFbPqPBOztZXWYSsNy" gets called, and nothing else happens. The screen displays the string "ORACLE FORMS." and the status bar says "Waiting for 127.0.0.1...", and it stays like this forever.
I assume this is a port configuration problem, but I don't have a clue where to start.
Any suggestions how I should proceed are greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Frank,
Thank you for your reply.
I doublechecked my configuration.
In the dialog Edit --> Preferences --> Runtime the Application Server URL is set to "127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet".
However, when I attempt to run the form, the URL "http://127.0.0.1:33140/W2dwbV9eXS2fPkuKlxNhCxFWdEihwDviat2uV7ycrSotqwDN" gets called.
The screen displays the string "ORACLE FORMS." and the status bar says "Waiting for 127.0.0.1...", and that's it.
I wonder how the port number 33140 got selected. Interestingly, this time it is a different number; last time it was port 32979. In fact, the port number seems to change each time; I tried again and now it is 33189.
I will now try to set the port number for the frmservlet to 8890.
I choose Edit --> Preferences --> Runtime and set the application server URL to "127.0.0.1:8890/forms/frmservlet".
I stop the container, open /home/oracle/OraHome_1/j2ee/DevSuite/config/default-web-site.xml and change the port number to 8890:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone='yes'?>
<!DOCTYPE web-site PUBLIC "Oracle Application Server 10g XML Web-site" "http://xmlns.oracle.com/ias/dtds/web-site.dtd">

I restart the container, start Form Builder, connect to the database, and open my test form.
When attempting to run the form, the URL "http://127.0.0.1:33437/Pl0n3ky9vmU5z37A7ScBnQhsGwq3jwuzJpgTAKWPMOYIzT8K" gets called (again a new port number, apparently picked radomly within a certain range) and nothing happens: "Waiting for 127.0.0.1...".
However, when I enter the URL http://127.0.0.1:8890/forms/frmservlet I do (eventually, after confirming that I trust the certificate etc.) get a darc rectangle and the status message "Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main started", which tells me that my setup can't be that far off target.
Here is the output of netstat:

I want to design a News like the *LInklist* by XML Form Builder

Hello:
   Everyone!
   Now I have another problem about XML Form Builder
   I want to design a News like the LInklist by XML Form Builder
   I want the result,For Example
SAP News
       1news1
       2news2
       3news3
who can give me some adviseon about how to disign the Edit, Show and Renderlistitem in XML
Thanks a lot
Hope your help!

Hi,
In XML Form
1) Edit form is used for designing the user interface.
2) Show form is used for displaying the xml form to the end user
3) RenderListItem is used for rendering the xml form into a small description like 1News1, 2news2 etc..
    Here you need to display only the heading of the xml form
After you create the xml form
Create Layout set where you need to give the proerties like xml renderer form , no of items to display etc...
Thanks&Regards,
Raghu

Creating a .fmb with out using form builder

Hi
I am having a template to create form modules in the forms builder, for the most of the forms I need not change any
of the PL/SQL code provided by the template. (All my business logic and information regading items in object navigator resides in the database) The only thing that I need to do is creation of fields in object navigator and provide the
sub class information for it. So I felt that It's better to have a tool which generats the requried .fmb file if the all
field details are stored in a table.
While expermenting on that we came to know that there are some functions provided by Oracle Developer6.0 that creates all
objects in the object navigator using a C program. These programs requires some header file, most of which are provided by
Oracle developer6.0 and some are missing.
Pls. let me know if any one experimented
Thanx & Regards

u have 2 options
create amterial master with price control indicator standrd and maintin the price of mateirial in account view now create a po with free line itme and do the gr now in this case sytem will create a accounting document and it post the amount to the stock account Dr.
and no gr/ir account hit will happen as it is a free itme so there is no question of paying any amount to vendor
u can also use movement type 511 to do the gr for that free good
option 2 create am material with moving average price in this case if u do the gr then system will not create any account document but point to note here is the price will become then zero in material master as map means latest price is updated in matreial master

XML Form Builder-How to access data saved from a form?

Hi All,
I created a form in XML Form Builder. This form include checkboxes and input fields.
Also i include a Save button.
I used this form in a iView.
Many users will access this iView and save their input data.
So, after the user Save this data, in the KM folder , is created a XML form where i can see the inputed data.
So for every user's Save is created a XML form .
The question is,
how can i collect all these data for each created XML form, so as i can process them?
Please i will appreciate if anybody has any documentation or can give me step-by step instruction .
I am new in EP .
Regards
Ari

Hello Avinash,
You can directly use query in form personalization Conditions like
select date_probation_end from per_assignments_x where person_id = :PERIOD_OF_SERVICE.PERSON_ID
and put in your condition like if you want to validate Probation end date is less then sysdate then in condition put in like.
TRUNC(SYSDATE) < (select TRUNC(date_probation_end) from per_assignments_x where person_id = :PERIOD_OF_SERVICE.PERSON_ID)
set the error message.

Saurabh
