How can I access database from FORMS 6i?

Dear co-developers,
I am new to developing and just installed Oracle forms 6i but when i try to access my database schema tables from forms 6i I get TNS error saying it could not resolve the service name. I need help in two things:
1. I wanna know how to (and where to) make appropriate change in TNSnames.ora file or any other file to make things work.(I request u to explain in detail)
2. what is the concept of oracle homes? Oracle forms 6i takes a new oracle home. And Oracle 9i Database takes another home.
I have Oracle 9i Release 2 installed on windows XP pro.
Thanx in advance and looking for a quick response.

hi there,
i wanted to know from you that are you able to access your database from sql*plus?,if yes then i will give you the step by step info on how to configure your tnsnames.ora file automatically or manually.
Automatic step
1.Open net 8 easy config from start menu under programs where ur forms application shortcuts are installed.
2.if the net 8 easy config doesnt open make a windows search for the file name symcjit.dll if the file is found rename it to any other name.
3.if after renaming the file still you are not able to open it then you have to go by the manual way.which is concluded next
4.now you have to add the database alias here.click on the add service and press next.
5.provide your database name here in the service name text box.dont change the port number leave as it is.
6.now again give your database in the sid text field.
7.hit next and test you connection with scott/tiger or any other user.
8.if the test is succesfull exit the configurator and test you forms for connectivity.
first try this if nothing happens i'll post the manual method.

You will need a Backup Extractor program; there are many available. I use iScavenge for Mac, but there are many more. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iphone+backup+extractor The one at the top of the search claims to be free, but it is not. Don't be fooled. I can't recommend for or against any of them, except iScavenge, which is OK.
If you are technically inclined the backup is a SQLite database, so a SQLite browser can also open the backup.

Format the external drive as FAT32 or ExFAT. Both computers will then be able to read and write to it.

Photoshop is not a format. It's an application.
What you are looking at are not true JPEGs, just iPhoto's "tease" representations of the hidden images it swallowed, as explained above.

2) Put the following code in your app (assuming your database file name is: "DB.mdb"):
try {
File current = new File("DB.mdb");
File backup = new File("BACKUP.mdb");
if (current.renameTo(backup)) {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("jetcomp -src:BACKUP.mdb -dest:DB.mdb");
} catch (Exception e) {

How can i access properties from APP server through JNLP with ot using JAR

Hello
i want to retrive a Properties file from WL-7 app installed location like :bea/home/externalized.properties
now i want to use this properties file throgh out the application. if any property is changed in "externalized.properties" that could be reflect dynamically in my code.
So my requirement is :
The current implementaion is using the JNLP down load the required code which contains the properties in .jar files, i have around 500 properties which are embedded in differnet .jar files with differnt property name. So i want to make all 500 properties to get out side from the jar files. and keep that consolidated properties in a single location and access it dynamically after deployed my ear file in wl7 app server.
my application is implemented in SWING and EJB now i want to create an ear file which can be deployed any instance or cluster of WL7 app server.
My Q:
1. How can i access properties file through JNLP? (not a single property, want to access all properties in externalized.properties)
2. is thare any known issue with SUN to load properties file through JNLP?
your help is highly appreciated.

Hey Thanks for your response,
My question is Still not answered,
see infact i have different type of environments to launch my application.
infact my weblogic is deployed at remote location whihch is installed in linux,
code is exist in our local system.
At the time of code build for my local system i'm not able to get the properties from remote WL server,
so at the time of code compilation and making the EAR file i'm not having this externalized properties file in newly generated EAR file.
so once i copied my EAR in to WL7 cluster and i'm running the application using startAdminserver.sh, in this script file i'm defining the
java -DexternalizedProperty=$WL_HOME/externalizedProperty.properties so now i'm able to get this properties to 'externalizedProperty"
But when i download my application required jars, at this time i does not having the property file in my downloaded JAR files.
So i want to access the remote properties file in suh sistuation.
now i'm runnig the application at my local side to launch and Server side as well.
So i have 2 runtimes 1 is my local and another is my server. In this case using "-DexternalizedProperty" i'm able to get this in server side,
once control is come to local system it is not able to find this "-DexternalizedProperty" [externalizedProperty].
Hope now u get my scenario..
Thanks,

How can I access documents from iCloud on my iPad.

how can I download docs from icloud drive on my iPad and edit them on ipad.

Hello Kalsulkar,
To use iCloud Drive and to work with documents, you will need the corresponding Pages, Keynote and Numbers iOS apps or third party iOS apps that support iCloud Drive to interact with those documents. To access the content, you would need to open one of those apps to see all the documents that are available to you for that specific app. Take a look at the article below for more information.

How can I access instances from Interface Builder?

Hello!
How can I access instances build from the Interface Builder? For example, i know how to access Controller classes = just setting the class in the view identity. But I am missing some "connection" to my navigation controller. IB uses one, but in my code, i dont have one.
All my xibs file owners have as their identity class a View or TableView Controller. But shouldnt they have a navigation controller as identy if the View or TableView is using a navigation Controller?
thank you..

thank you, .. i know.. the problem is, that i have different xib files, but i am not sure how i can connect them with their navigation controller / tabbarcontroller.
it seems, that
NSLog(@"pushing next view..");
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:nextViewController animated:YES];
is not enough. On the console, i can read pushing next view.. but it doesnt come up to the screen.

Check your TNSNAMES.ORA file that located in ORACLE HOME
FOR DEVELOPER and make sure it has right configuration
information, otherwise configure manually.Also if DB located
not on your machine check HOSTS file.(this file doesn't have any
extention)

How can i run report from form?

Hi.
I build a report , the name is test , in this report i have 3 parametrs 'user_id' , 'Date_1' and 'Date_2'.
how can i send those parametrs from form to report?
i have 3 text item in form for get the parametrs.
thanks alot

You can run the report from within a program unit, using following :
Run_Product(REPORTS, report_name, ASYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, param_list, NULL);
Here, report_name contains report file's name (test.rdf in your case) its type is Varchar2.
param_list is of ParamList type, it contains the name-value pairs for parameters you want to pass to the report. You'll have to add parameters to this using addParameter() function. see the Help for addParameter().
this will run the report using Report Background Engine.

Is there an Oracle API that I can use from forms ?
