Help with setting up application form to change per week.

Hi all, i am going to be creating a simple feedback system application on apex but from the requirements given to me I am somewhat uncertain of how to go about creating it.
The requirements are roughly:
A feedback system to capture thoughts and views of students each week.
An 'admin' area for the lecturer to define how many weeks the course is running for and whether there are 2/3/4 sessions each week for the duration.
The form in which the student will give feedback each week.
A results chart/graph/report in the 'admin' area, (with a printable PDF possibly?)
My question is, when the lecturer defines how many weeks the course is running for and how many sessions a week there is, is there any way of setting the form page (the student uses to give feedback) to change for each week i.e week1, week2 etc. So the student doesn't keep supplying the feedback for week1 for example.
The number of sessions will simple enough to sort out im thinking, just create the page with the highest possible amount of sessions on, then if there is only 2 sessions a week, only 2 will be displayed to fill in and the others will be hidden. If this is possible?
Any ideas and thoughts are welcome. Please also mention any other ways of doing this if you have any!
Thanks in advance,
Ashleigh

Hello Ashleigh,

The answer for the above question is YES, with the help of form based on APEX_COLLECTIONS and/or APEX_ITEM API.
Now the question is HOW. The answer to this question is for example the Timesheets Packaged Application which was provided by OTN a while ago(say before release of APEX 4.1) which was available here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/packaged-apps-090453.html
The application provided a way to collect no. of hours a particular person has worked on particular timecode in a week.
The main page consisted of a form built on collection(which was built on page load) whose first column consisted of timecode drop-down and rest of the column headers consisted of days of the week and the columns consisted of textbox for entering no. of hours worked. In short it was type of matrix form.
Hope it helps!
Regards,
Kiran

I need help with a 1 Page Form with scrollable text field (5000 limit characters) and printing

Hello, I have no training in using Adobe Acrobat Pro or Livecycle Designer so I need major help with a 1 page form that I am attempting to create. Basically the form will be used to nominate employees for a Job Well Done Award.
The form contains the following:
1.) The name(s) of the employees being nominated and the date of the accomplishment.
2.) In the middle of the page I have a section for a write up, limited to 5000 characters, this is were I am needing the most help. A couple of things, about this section: The font is set at 11 and I don't want it to change. The text field has multiple-line, scroll long text enabled. The text field is a certain size and can only hold so much text, then it starts to scroll, which I am ok with, I like that feature. The issue I am having is during printing. I would like to keep the text field scrollable but when I print I would like to be able to print everything in that field. Executing this is the problem, I have no clue how to do it. I was hoping for some setting within Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle to be available, but the more I read and research this, it appears that it may require java, xml, basically some coding. I don't know for sure.
3.) Below the text field I have another field for the person nominating to type their name and right next to that another field for a digital signature.
4.) And finally below those two fields I have a Submit button that is setup to start email application so the form can be emailed to the proper inbox.
Thank you in advance.

With an Acrobat form the only thing you can do is export the text to
another location (like a blank field on another page) or to another file
format. With an LCD form you can expand the text box itself, but you'll
need to ask about that over at the LCD Scripting forum.

I need help with a VB Application

I need help with building an application and I am on a tight deadline. Below I have included the specifics for what I need the application to do as well as the code that I have completed so far. I am having trouble getting the data input into

•I need to use the OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog in my application.
•Also, I need to use a structure.
1. The application needs to prompt the user to enter the file name on Form_Load.
2. Also, the app needs to use the AppendText method to write the Employee Data to the text file. My project should allow me to write multiple Employee Data to the same text file. The data should be written to the text file in the following format (comma
delimited)
FirstName, MiddleName, LastName, EmployeeNumber, Department, Telephone, Extension, Email
3. The Department dropdown menu DropDownStyle property should be set so that the user cannot enter inputs that are not in the menu.

I need help with the Web Application Certificate

Greets,
The title says it all really. I need help with the Web Application Certificate.
I've followed the instructions from here:
https://www.novell.com/documentation....html#b13qz9rn
I can get as far as item 3.c
3. Getting Your Certificate Officially Signed
C. Select the self-signed certificate, then click File > Certification Request > Import CA Reply.
I can get the certificate in to the Filr appliance but from there I'm stuck.
Any help much appreciated.

ok when you have you self signed certificate and you requested an official certificate with the corresponding CSR then you just need to go back to the digital certificates console. To import the official certificate, select the self signed certificate, then click File > Certification Request > Import CA Reply. Then a new windows pops out to select the certificate from your trusted authority from your local hard disk. Find the file (.cer worked for me) and click ok. As soon as you do this in the digital certificates console the self signed certificate will change the information that now it is officially signed. Look at the second column and you should see the name of your trusted authority under "issue from"
I personally had a lot of issues across all platforms. Especially Firefox and Chrome for android. Needed to pack all the root cert, intermediate cert and signed cert into one file and import as CA reply. Not even sure if this is correct now. But at least it works.

How do I get extreme to work as the modem and router ?

How do I get extreme to work as the modem and router ?
you can't. the extreme is only a router. you need a separate modem (or disable the wireless part of your old router and use it as a modem - if that's possible).

Help with lost Droid MAXX. Lost it a week ago while I had it turned off, I cannot track it until it is turned on. Is there anyway to remotely turn on the device?

Have you tried randomly using Google - Device Manager? Though it will not track the Droid Maxx when it's turned off. It will show the last time the phone was turned on. To see if that coincides with the last time you had the phone on.

Need help with set up for extensions

I'm new to OA Framework development and am just ramping up (do have years of Java development experience) and could use some help. I've read through the OA Framework Developer Guide and gone through a few of the tutorials. My task is to add some extensions to the R12 Customer Standard pages.
I've looked in the $JAVA_TOP at the following directory structure.
/oracle/apps/ar/cusstd/...
I find java classes and the server.xml files but there are no PG.xml files to work with. Are these located in a different structure? What is the best approach to obtaining the base Oracle source files to start with and for configuring your local development environment to extend R12 OA Framework pages? Do you need to include the entire $JAVA_TOP in your development client environment classpath as well?
Thanks in advance!

To run the oracle seeded party create/update page, you can refer <<your Jdeveloper Installation directory>>\jdevhome\jdev\myhtml\OA_HTML\test_fwktutorial.jsp.
Create a new custom jsp similar to test_fwktutorial.jsp. Modify this JSP based on your environment and user setup. Modify the links also. With this, you should run this jsp first. By clicking the link in the JSP run, you can launch party create page.
The error you posted in RED color is thrown because you are trying to modify the web bean hierarchy in the processFormData method. Example, setting some items property to rendered false or true. All these kind of modifications should be done in the proceeRequest method of the controller.
Following is from DEV guide to launch the forms application.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Launching Oracle Applications Forms from OA Framework Pages
To launch an Oracle Applications form from OA Framework, you must first define a button, link or image web
bean. The web bean then relies on the FormsLauncher applet provided by Oracle Applications (AOL/J) to
launch the specified form.
Declarative Implementation
Step 1: In the OA Extension Structure pane, select the region in which you want to create the web bean to
launch an Oracle Applications form. Choose New > Item from the context menu.
Step 2: Set the ID property for the item, in accordance with the OA Framework File Standards, and set the Item
Style property to button, image, or link. You may also launch an Oracle Applications form from a submit
button. See the Runtime Control section below for more details.
Step 3: Set the Destination URI property of the item with a value following this format (replacing the italicized
text as appropriate):
form:responsibilityApplicationShortName:responsibilityKey:securityGroupKey:functionName
For example, if you want to launch the FND Menus form, the Destination URI property should be set to:
form:SYSADMIN:SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR:STANDARD:FND_FNDMNMNU
Step 4: If you wish to pass parameters to the form, set the Destination URI property with a value using the
following format (Note that the parameter list is delimited by a space between each "parameter=value" pair):
form:responsibilityApplicationShortName:responsibilityKey:securityGroupKey:functionName:param1=
value1 param2=value2 param3=value3
Note: If you wish to send varchar2 parameter values that contain spaces, use \" to enclose the string value.
For example, to pass in something of the form:
TXN_NUMBER=LT INVOICE 1
Use:
TXN_NUMBER=\"LT INVOICE 1\"
Step 5: Refer to the following Chapter 4 topics for information about additional properties you may need to set
for the specific item: Buttons(Action/Navigation), Buttons (Links), or Images in Your Pages.
*Runtime Control*
There are no special programmatic steps necessary to launch an Oracle Applications form from a button,
image, or link in an OA Framework page. The OAButtonBean, OALinkBean and OAImageBean support the
special form function URL format described above for the Destination URI property. When OA Framework
encounters this special value, it generates the appropriate URL and also adds a hidden IFrame (inline frame)
to the OA Framework page. The hidden IFrame is the target of the FormsLauncher applet provided by Oracle
Applications.
Launching an Oracle Applications Form From a Submit Button
If you wish to launch an Oracle Applications form from a submit button in an OA Framework page, you must
use the OAPageContext.forwardImmediatelyToForm(String url) method from
548
oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAPageContext. An example of how to use this API is shown in the code
sample below:
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
if (pageContext.getParameter("Apply")!=null)
String destination =
"form:SYSADMIN:SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR:STANDARD:FND_FNDMNMNU";
pageContext.forwardImmediatelyToForm(destination);
*Usage Notes*
Microsoft Internet Explorer supports the IFrame element, so when you launch an Oracle Applications form from
OA Framework, only a splash window appears. Any other windows required by the FormsLauncher applet
use(s) the hidden IFrame as the target and therefore remain(s) hidden from the user. Netscape Navigator, on
the other hand, does not support the IFrame element, so in addition to a splash window, the user also sees
another window used by the FormsLauncher applet.

Matrix - Help with setting 1st column for line numbers

Hi,
I have created a matrix on a custom form and would like to add line numbers to the # column line that of the quotation screen.
The matrix itself is populated correct from the Query and LoadFromDataSource, and all the fields and columns are filled in correctly, the only column I am having trouble with is the 1st one for line numbers. My code for adding the line numbers is
SBO_Application.MessageBox("Matrix Count: " & tMatrix.RowCount)
For i = 1 To tMatrix.RowCount
      oEditText = tColumns.Item("#").Cells.Item(i).Specific
      oEditText.Value = i
Next
For the example I am using I get the message box appear:
Matrix Count: 26
So I know I should have the line number go from 1 to 26, however I only get 1 to 9 displayed, all the remaining lines are blank.
Any ideas on why it stops at 9 or what I should do to correctly set the line numbers in the Number column like that of the system Quotation/Sales orders forms.
Your help is much appreciated
Matthew

Hi,
I tried changing it to the following as you suggested:
SBO_Application.MessageBox("Matrix Count: " & tMatrix.VisualRowCount)
For i = 1 To tMatrix.VisualRowCount
    oEditText = tColumns.Item("#").Cells.Item(i).Specific
    oEditText.Value = i
Next
The message box still displays 26, however my lines still only go up to number 9.
Thanks for the quick response.

Please help with submitting a pdf form

I've spend the last few days (literally) searching and searching - in this forum and across the web - for a SIMPLE solution to this problem and found nothing. Actually, I have found a few posts apparently trying to do the same thing I am, but with never a solution beyond "hire a programmer." Maybe I'm missing something obvious out there, and if so please feel free to throw tomatoes at me (along with a link I can get what I need - lol)
At this point I'm completely stumped - furthermore, I'm not a code guru in the slightest. In my research, I did find and buy a script that was supposed to do what I needed - but it doesn't so I'm still stuck and $50 in the hole.
Moving on, I realize this may be a rather low-tech request given the power of Adobe forms, but I have a client who wants it this way so that's the way it has to be. So, here we go...
My client wants his website viewers to complete an employment application pdf form and click <submit>
I have the form completely finished and ready to go
He then wants to receive that same completed form as a PDF document as an email attachment
He cares nothing about processing the form DATA (fields) becuase he simply wants to print the form and save it to his computer for future reference
However...
Most of the people viewing and completing this app are NOT computer savvy
In fact, many viewers use public computers (such as at a library) and have no email capabilities or the ability to save the form
So I cannot use the basic submit-by-email function (that requires a desktop email client)
So far what I've been trying to do (with the purchased script referred to above) is direct my <submit> button to the url of the php script on the client's server. If I select "html" in the (pdf) submit dialogue box, I do in fact get the DATA from the form in an email. But that's not what I need. If I select "entire pdf document" in the submit dialogue box, I get an error w/ the script.
In my research I've read that the form DATA can be sent to the server, then parsed back into a PDF form. This seems logical but unnecessary. Also this is an 8 page form with LOTS of data fields, some are required others are optional.
Is there ANY WAY to have the same form a viewer is filling out and submitting simply sent as an email attachment from the server the form is hosted on???

Yes, that's possible, and I have just the script...
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I would suggest that the best approach is to set up the form to submit just the form data as an FDF file. This avoids the limitations associated with Reader-enabling the form, which is necessary for the entire filled-in form to be submitted. You mentioned that just sending the form data is logical but unnecesary, but this will be by far the most reliable method.
Now, you just need a server-side program (script) that processes the form submission. Here's what the script would do:
1. Accept the incoming data and check that it is a valid FDF.
2. Attach the FDF to an email message that gets sent to your client
The recipient of the email can launch the FDF attachment and the corresponding PDF will load and get populated with the data in the FDF. The filled-in PDF can then be viewed/printed/saved.

Help with the insert table/form tool in BIP 10.1.3.2.1

Hi, I'm trying to use the insert table/form tool in BIP, and running into some issues that I don't understand. First off, my data coming in looks like this (left column of tool):
Rowset
--- Row
------ Customer ID
------ Customer Name
------ Customer City
------ Product
------ Amount Sold
I would like the output to do the following:
a) have one page per customer. Customer should be determined by customer ID, and has attributes of customer ID, customer Name, Customer City
b) Show a table of all products and the total Amount Sold by product for that customer
c) Give a "grand total" for the customer
Can someone help with the steps needed to do this? I've tried several variations of the following without much luck:
1) Added Rowset and all children to the "Template" pane
2) Clicked on the "Row" group, and set Grouping = Customer ID, with a break of "New page per Element"
3) Clicked on the newly created (from step 2) Cust ID group, and set it to group by Product
4) Moved "amount sold" to be at same level as Product
5) Moved all of the customer attributes (name, address, etc.) to be at same level as Cust ID
6) On the Cust ID level, set the style to table
7) on row and rowset levels, set style to free form
This seems to be VERY close, except that it isn't creating a total amount for the sum of all products purchased by a customer. What do I need to do inside the tool to get a total per customer to show up?
Thanks in advance!
Scott
p.s. the final hierarchy in the template window looks like this:
Rowset (style = freeform, no grouping/sort by/breaks)
--- Row (style = freeform, group by customer ID, break new page per element)
------ Customer ID (style = table, group by product, no breaks)
--------- Product (nothing special)
--------- Amount Sold (calc for grouping = SUM)
------ Customer Name (nothing special)
------ Customer City (nothing special)
Thanks very much for the help!
Scott

To anyone else who sees this post, the answer is to do the following. Insert the Amount Sold field using the "Insert Field" tool, and set the function to sum, with the grouping checkbox turned on.
Thanks,
Scott

Help with Update a Split Form

Hi, guys! really really need a help, I'm crazy about this problem, don't have any idea what I need to do.
Look,
I have a little base, where I want develop a AIO little system, where the user makes filters or click in some pre-defined filters to get the numbers they will need.
I have some tables (register, consume, filters, R1)
R1 is the only table created over a query (I tooked some fields of register make a INNER JOIN with consume, and the results was the R1 table)
After that, I created a form, set as split form, use the header to put the links and buttons and filters and the Detail Form put to appear the datasheet of the fields from R1 table.
Nice and done until now, no problem. My problem appear here, when I decide to create a button to update the datasheet on this split form.
But what I understand is to appear the datasheet u need put the fields on the detail form (fields like a text box, cause don't mind, cause don't will appear any way). so after u put this field the datasheet will be loaded. But Now when the user click on
this button I want this datasheet show-me the fields from my QUERY.
how?! I can't do this?! what tips you can give me? please! really need something like that.
Thks!

But Now when the user click on this button I want this datasheet show-me the fields from my QUERY.
Open datasheet in design view and in Property Sheet - Data select the query as Record Source.
