How to create a form based on table@databaselink

I have created a database link under OracleXe to access an Oracle 9i and it works very well. I can manually access the tables that I like to see. Want to experiment to create a form under HTMLDB based on a table from another database that I have created DataLink to. When I go choose Create Application in HMTLDB and then select Form from page type under table or view I tried to do this tablename@databaselink but it seems it can not find the table this way. Any idea how to do this?
Thanks

Mike,
As I am trying to test and learn more about htmldb I was trying to get some data from oracle 9i to oracleXe, create some forms, reports and etc. At first I tried to use views and forgot to add the primary key, got the error so I posted the message on the board.
Then I did try out the long way creating tables with package and procedure and some other fun stuff to create an application which by the way it worked very well. Then I created some users and changed some password. When I tried again to run the application I start getting invalid login credentials. After many attempts finally I went home, as I was driving home I thought about something and at home I tried it.
I did some testing and noticed if I create a user under admin say userA+passwordA then login with userA+passwordA, create a table and then create an app base on that table and then run the app, with userA+passwordA I can login and app works perfectly. Then I logged out and as admin logged in, changed the userA password to passwordB. I logged out and logged in with userA+passwordB and then when I tried to run the app I get the invalid login credentials, when I change the passwordB to passwordA the app will works again. This is suppose to be this way!
Again thanks to all

How to create a form based on table using dynamic page?

Hi,
I need to create a form using dynamic page. How do you pass values from the html form to a oracle procedure that will get executed on submission of the form ? I could not find any documents which shows how to do that. Can anyone please help me out with an example ?
thanks,
Mainak

Hi,
Something seems to get added to the form action because of "http". Hence I am removing it.
You need to write a procedure with the values in the as parameters. Say for example you want to insert a record into dept
table then
Dynamic page code
<html>
<body>
<form action="portalschema.insert_dept">
<input type="text" name="p_deptno">
<input type="text" name="p_dname">
<input type="submit" name="p_action" value="save">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Procedure code.
create or replace procedure insert_dept
(p_deptno in number,
p_dname in varchar2,
p_action in varchar2)
is begin
if p_action = 'save' then
insert into scott.dept(deptno,dname) values(p_deptno,p_dname);
commit;
end if;
end;
grant execute on insert_dept to public;
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

How to create a Form based on a dynamic table?

Hello,
The Select statement below creates a table based on a string (string is a value of an item):
select * from table (pkg_util.fn_get_table (:P18_VALUE))I need to create a region on a page with a Form based on this table.
I was able to create a Report, but not a Form.
I need to create a Form, which would return updated string to the page item.
How can I solve this please?

END LOOP;
     :p18_temp := lc_string;
END;and it did not work.
Also, it is the second Tabular Form on this page. The first one is created using wizard, and it works perfect, with the same update process:
DECLARE
lc_string VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_f*01*.COUNT

END LOOP;
--Database processing using the concatenated string here
END;Also, both forms are opening in a modal pop-up dialog window.
I use a Dialog Region plug-in for that.
May be this is causing a problem?
But still, the first form works fine!?

Creating Dynamic Form based on table

I have to create 7-8 Form on a Table with Report.
Just wondering if there is a way, we can create this dynamically, so that I don't have to create this manually for each table.
Exp - I will have a table list, once I will select table_name from the LOV, then this will display the Report/Form region for that table...and so on...
thanks,
deepak

Hi Deepak,
So, basically, you want to be able to create an application without actually having to create it manually?
The nearest you could get, I think, is something like: Re: Creating Item dynamically and Automating tedious repetitive tasks / creating hundreds of different items (there may be other threads along these lines as well).
The principle is that you do pretty much what an Application Export/Import would do. I have to stress, though, that this is totally unsupported by Oracle and also most forum users, myself included, would not be able to help you!

How to create a form from a table available from a database link?

Hi,
I have a table accessible via a database link.
It is working perfectly, but I cannot create a from using the wizzard.
It says: "Primary Key must be specified."
But there is a primary key in the source database!
Best regards,
Sebastien (Geneva)

a little more about dblink:
i have a view in the dblink
when i execute
insert into ias_time_of_acc(ias29, end_acc_period, start_acc_period, acc_last_date_id, comp_date_id, active)
values(:p4110_ias29, to_date(:p4110_end_acc,'DD.MM.YYYY'),
to_date(:p4110_start_acc,'DD.MM.YYYY'),:p4110_last_date, :p4110_comp_date,'N');
i've got this err:
ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column ORA-02063: preceding line from OFSA_OWNER@OFSA_TO_ORCL
and when i execute
a:= to_date(:p4110_start_acc,'DD.MM.YYYY') ;
b:= :p4110_last_date;
c:= :p4110_comp_date;
d:= :p4110_ias29;
insert into ias_time_of_acc(ias29, start_acc_period, end_acc_period, acc_last_date_id, comp_date_id, active )
values(d, a,to_date(:p4110_end_acc,'DD.MM.YYYY'),
b, c,'N' );
everything is working properly
so problem is in the lenght of insert statment i think.

APEX How do I create a Form based on a Database Table from other schema

My APEX schema is WISEXP. I have a database table that resides in WISDW schema on the same database. I want to create Tabular form based on this table.
I am not able to create a FORM based on the table from WISDW schema. I am able to create a FORM based on SQL though from this table in WISDW schema - but it does not do any action on Update/Insert rows.
Appropriate Synonyms and grants are created. Is there a limitation or am I missing something? Please advise.
thanks
Rupen

If Rupen is using 2.2 or 2.2.1, it is likely he is running into the bug described here: Re: Workspace to Schema Assignments
In that case, it may be a necessary and sufficient workaround to assign the foreign schema to the workspace.

Creating form based on table with non-sequence pk.

How to you create a form based on a varchar2 column and not a sequenced assigned pk. So the pk would be entered at the time a new
row is added. It would be entered just like the other fields from the form and not a sequence.
How do you do this as when using the wizard it prompts you to select one of 3 ways to define the pk.
Sequence, trigger or pl/sql code.
If the answer is pl/sql code, what do I need to create in the code?

If the primary key is created by the user themselves (which is not recommended, you should have another ID which the user sees which would be the varchar2 and keep the primary key as is, the user really shouldn't ever edit the primary key) then all you need to do is make sure that the table is not populated with a primary key in the wizard and then make sure that you cannot insert a null into your varchar primary key text field.
IF you're doing it this way I would make a validation on the page which would run off a SQL Exists validation, something along the lines of
SELECT <primary key column>
FROM <your table>
WHERE upper(<primary key column>) = upper(<text field containing user input>);
and if it already exists, fire the validation claiming that it already exists and to come up with a new primary key.
Like I said if you really should have a primary key which the database refers to each individual record itself and then have an almost pseudo-primary key that the user can use. For example in the table it would look like this:
TABLE1
table_id (this is the primary key which you should NOT change)
user_table_id (this is the pretend primary key which the user can change)
other_columns
etc
etc
hope this helps in some way

Can we create an APEX Form based on Table which has no Primary Key

Hi,
I have a requirement.
I need to create a FORM based on a table having no Primary Key but it is having Unique Key . I can use Unique Key as an alternate of Primary Key.
but When I tried to create a Form, I got the following message.
Source tables for forms and tabular forms must have a primary key

DeepakGood database design will always require a PK on the tables. There are only very few and rare expetions to this rule. One would be when you have store the data only temporarily in this table, like it is often done for import/loader tables. The data is first loaded in the "import"-table, then validated and then transported to the "real" tables. In such a scenario you can ignore the primary key on purpose. Because you already have a UK on this table it can't be such a scenario.
For most other scenarios you should always add a PK. Ask critically why there is no PK on it. Is there a reason for it or was the table designer just not doing its job well?
Btw: A UK is identical to a PK if the column is mandatory (NOT NULL). In this case you could simply change the constraint from UK to PK.

How to create an ODS based on a particular table

Can Anybody tell me how to create an ODS based on a particular table and what are the basic requirements for that

Hi Priya,
If my understanding is right, you want to create an ODS based on a database table.
Here, I will assume that you already know how to create an ODS. Otherwise, do let me know so that I can guide you on how to do it.
Basically, an ODS consists of two important sections i.e.
1. Key Fields
2. Data Fields
First, we must identify what are the field(s) in the table that make its records unique. You can think of this as database's primary key(s) e.g. Document Number. These field(s) must be inserted in ODS' Key Fields section. You can only insert Characteristics in Key Fields and the InfoObjects in this section will uniquely identify an ODS record or line item.
Next, you can include the rest of the fields (either Characteristics and Key Figures) in ODS' Data Fields and activate the ODS.
Having done that, you have already successfully create an ODS based on a database table.
Hope that helps.
Best wishes,
Syuhair.

How to create a report based on a DataSet programatically

I'm working on a CR 2008 Add-in.
Usage of this add-in is: Let the user choose from a list of predefined datasets, and create a totally empty report with this dataset attached to is. So the user can create a report based on this dataset.
I have a dataset in memory, and want to create a new report in cr2008.
The new report is a blank report (with no connection information).
If I set the ReportDocument.SetDataSource(Dataset dataSet) property, I get the error:
The report has no tables.
So I must programmatically define the table definition in my blank report.
I found the following article: https://boc.sdn.sap.com/node/869, and came up with something like this:
internal class NewReportWorker : Worker
      public NewReportWorker(string reportFileName)
         : base(reportFileName)
public override void Process()
         DatabaseController databaseController = ClientDoc.DatabaseController;
         Table table = new Table();
         string tabelName = "Table140";
         table.Name = tabelName;
         table.Alias = tabelName;
         table.QualifiedName = tabelName;
         table.Description = tabelName;
         var fields = new Fields();
         var dbField = new DBField();
         var fieldName = "ID";
         dbField.Description = fieldName;
         dbField.HeadingText = fieldName;
         dbField.Name = fieldName;
         dbField.Type = CrFieldValueTypeEnum.crFieldValueTypeInt64sField;
         fields.Add(dbField);
         dbField = new DBField();
         fieldName = "IDLEGITIMATIEBEWIJS";
         dbField.Description = fieldName;
         dbField.HeadingText = fieldName;
         dbField.Name = fieldName;
         dbField.Type = CrFieldValueTypeEnum.crFieldValueTypeInt64sField;
         fields.Add(dbField);
         // More code for more tables to add.
         table.DataFields = fields;
         //CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.ConnectionInfo info =
         //   new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.ConnectionInfo();
         //info.Attributes.Add("Databse DLL", "xxx.dll");
         //table.ConnectionInfo = info;
         // Here an error occurs.
         databaseController.AddTable(table, null);
         ReportDoc.SetDataSource( [MyFilledDataSet] );
         //object path = @"d:\logfiles\";
         //ClientDoc.SaveAs("test.rpt", ref path, 0);
The object ClientDoc referes to a ISCDReportClientDocument in a base class:
   internal abstract class Worker
      private ReportDocument _ReportDoc;
      private ISCDReportClientDocument _ClientDoc;
      private string _ReportFileName;
      public Worker(string reportFileName)
         _ReportFileName = reportFileName;
         _ReportDoc = new ReportDocument();
         // Load the report from file path passed by the designer.
         _ReportDoc.Load(reportFileName);
         // Create a RAS Document through In-Proc RAS through the RPTDoc.
         _ClientDoc = _ReportDoc.ReportClientDocument;
      public string ReportFileName
         get
            return _ReportFileName;
      public ReportDocument ReportDoc
         get
            return _ReportDoc;
      public ISCDReportClientDocument ClientDoc
         get
            return _ClientDoc;
But I get an "Unspecified error" on the line databaseController.AddTable(table, null);
What am i doing wrong? Or is there another way to create a new report based on a DataSet in C# code?

Hi,
Have a look at the snippet code below written for version 9 that you might accommodate to CR 2008, it demonstrates how to create a report based on a DataSet programmatically.

HOW TO CREATE A DFF BASED ON ORGANIZATION

Hi,
I want to create a DFF which would have 5 different context values, i want 2 of them to be available in one organization and other 3 in other organization, how i can achieve this.
Regards,
Usman.

Hello,
"HOW TO CREATE A DFF BASED ON ORGANIZATION"
1- I will create a customized table having two columns one is for context name and other is for org_id,
2- then i will create a value set on this table and will use this on 'Value Set' field on 'Descriptive Flexfield Segments' window.
3- In the where clause of this value set i will pass org_id from profile $PROFILES$.ORG_ID,
4- this will restrict the context based on org_id And user will only have context related to there org
I have successfully achieved the above requirment.
Find below the restriction you should follow so that Value set is available in LOVs on "Descriptive Flexfield Segments" window:
Value sets used for context fields must obey certain restrictions or they will not be available to use in the Value Set field in the Context Field region of the Descriptive
Flexfield Segments window:
• Format Type must be Character (Char)
• Numbers Only must not be checked (alphabetic characters are allowed)
• Uppercase Only must not be checked (mixed case is allowed)
• Right-justify and Zero-fill Numbers must not be checked
• Validation Type must be Independent or Table
If the validation type is Independent:
• the value set maximum size must be less than or equal to 30
If the validation type is Table:
• the ID Column must be defined, it must be Char or Varchar2 type, and its size must
be less than or equal to 30. The ID column corresponds to the context field value
code (the internal, non-translated context field value).
• the Value Column must be defined, it must be Char or Varchar2 type, and its size
must be less than or equal to 80. The Value column corresponds to the context field
value name (the displayed context field value).
• the value set maximum size must be less than or equal to 80
All context field values (the code values) you intend to use must exist in the value set. If
you define context field values in the Context Field Values block of the Descriptive
Flexfield Segments window that do not exist in the context field value set, they will be
ignored, even if you have defined context-sensitive segments for them.
Best Regards,
Usman.

How to create a report based on selected item from Select list?

Hi,
I have created a tables_LOV based on:
select table_name d, table_name r from user_tab_cols
where column_name like '%_type%'
Then I created a page item ListOfTables, Display as select list and pointing to tables_LOV.
I run the page, and i can select the table i want from the drop down list.
How to create a report based on the selected item? (ex: select * from selected_table)
many thanks in advance
Salah

Hi Salah,
Allright, have a look at this page: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=vincentdeelen:collection_report
I think that simulates what you're trying to accomplish. I've set up the simplest method I could think of.
The report is based on an apex collection. If you are not familiar with that, you should study the documentation: APEX_COLLECTION
To recreate my example you should:
1) create an (interactive) report on your collection
SELECT *
   FROM APEX_collections
WHERE collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION'
2) create a page_item select list for the tables you want to display (in my case this is called "P38_TABLES" )
3) create a dynamic action that triggers on change of your select list page_item. The dynamic action must be a PL/SQL procedure perfoming the following code:
declare
l_query varchar2(4000);
begin
l_query := 'select * from '||:P38_TABLES;
if apex_collection.collection_exists
        ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION' )
then
    apex_collection.delete_collection
      ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION' );
end if;
apex_collection.create_collection_from_query
    ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION'
    , p_query           => l_query
end;
Make sure you add your page_item to the "Page Items to Submit" section.
4) Add an extra true action that does a refresh of the report region.
Here are two pictures describing the da:

How to create a form for identifying people in a photo?

I have a group photo of about 60 people that I have imported into Acrobat Pro XI. I would like to be able to send this photo pdf to others to get help identifying all of the people in the photo. None of the recipients is likely to know all of the people, but it's likely that the contributions of all will end up identifying all of the people in the photo.
It seems like I ought to be able to create a form based on that photo pdf that includes a blank next to each person and that I can email to others to fill in as many of the blanks as they each can and return the form to me.
However, I've never created a form before, so I'm not sure how to get started and go about creating it, including which field type to use, how to collect the data when the completed forms come back, etc.
Has anyone done this sort of thing before?
Thanks

It might be better for people to use the various commenting tools that are available. If you Reader-enable the document, they will be able to use the various markup tools to add text and otherwise annotate, which is more flexible than form fields. For example:
But you may have to include some instructions.

How to create dynamic context based on a structure defined in the program?

Hi Experts,
         I need to create a dynamic context based on a structure wa_struc which i have define programatically.
When I pass wa_struc to structure_name parameter of create_nodeinfo_from_struc, i get a runtime error:
"Parameter STRUCTURE_NAME contains an invalid value wa_struc."
How to create dynamic context based on a structure defined in the program?
I have written the code like this:
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_type,
            v_carrid TYPE sflight-carrid,
            v_connid TYPE sflight-connid,
         END OF t_type.
Data: i_struc type table of t_type,
         wa_struc type t_type.
data: dyn_node   type ref to if_wd_context_node.
data: rootnode_info   type ref to if_wd_context_node_info.
rootnode_info = wd_context->get_node_info( ).
clear i_struc. refresh i_struc.
select carrid connid into corresponding fields of table i_struc from sflight where carrid = 'AA'.
cl_wd_dynamic_tool=>create_nodeinfo_from_struct(
parent_info = rootnode_info
node_name = 'dynflight'
structure_name = 'wa_struc'
is_multiple = abap_true ).
dyn_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'dynflight' ).
dyn_node->bind_table( i_struc ).
Thanks
Gopal

Hi Michelle,
          First of all Special thanks for your informative answers to my other forum questions. I really appreciate your help.
Coming back to this question I am still waiting for an answer. Please help. Note that my structure is not in a dictionary.
I am trying to create a new node. That is
CONTEXT
- DYNFLIGHT
CARRID
CONNID
As you see above I am trying to create 'DYNFLIGHT' along with the 2 attributes which are inside this node. The structure of the node that is, no.of attributes may vary based on some condition. Thats why I am trying to create a node dynamically.
Also I cannot define the structure in the ABAP dictionary because it changes based on condition
I have updated my code like the following and I am getting error:
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_type,
CARRID TYPE sflight-carrid,
CONNID TYPE sflight-connid,
END OF t_type.
Data: i_struc type table of t_type,
dyn_node type ref to if_wd_context_node,
rootnode_info type ref to if_wd_context_node_info,
i_node_att type wdr_context_attr_info_map,
wa_node_att type line of wdr_context_attr_info_map.
wa_node_att-name = 'CARRID'.
wa_node_att-TYPE_NAME = 'SFLIGHT-CARRID'.
insert wa_node_att into table i_node_att.
wa_node_att-name = 'CONNID'.
wa_node_att-TYPE_NAME = 'SFLIGHT-CONNID'.
insert wa_node_att into table i_node_att.
clear i_struc. refresh i_struc.
select carrid connid into corresponding fields of table i_struc from sflight where carrid = 'AA'.
rootnode_info = wd_context->get_node_info( ).
rootnode_info->add_new_child_node( name = 'DYNFLIGHT'
attributes = i_node_att
is_multiple = abap_true ).
dyn_node = wd_context->get_child_node( 'DYNFLIGHT' ).
dyn_node->bind_table( i_struc ).
l_ref_interfacecontroller->set_data( dyn_node ).
But now I am getting the following error :
The following error text was processed in the system PET : Line types of an internal table and a work area not compatible.
The error occurred on the application server FMSAP995_PET_02 and in the work process 0 .
The termination type was: RABAX_STATE
