How to develop forms using TEMPLATE.fmb

hi,
Anyone Should suggest me clear tutorial/links to learn forms development using TEMPLATE.fmb with step-by-step development procedure including forms development, register in apps.
Thanks in advance.

Abdetu is right, General EBS Discussion is the more appropriate forum for this question. Having said that, creating a new form based on the TEMPLATE.fmb just ensures your EBS Custom form has all of the basic EBS requirements for a EBS form. Developing for the EBS Framework has many requirements and I strongly recommend you review the Oracle Applications Documentation library. Select your EBS version and then scroll to the Standards section and review the following documents:
<ul>
<li>Oracle Applications Developer's Guide
<li>Oracle Applications User Interface Standards for Forms-Based Products
<li>Oracle Application Framework Personalization Guide
</ul>
If you are looking for general "Forms" tutorials, here are a few good links. Although a few of the following links are for older Forms versions, the concepts are still valid across all Forms versions.
<ul>
<li>A Tutorial on Oracle9i Forms and Reports
<li>Tutorial for Oracle10g Forms / Reports
<li>iSelfSchooling - Basic Introduction to Forms
<li>Oracle Forms 10g: Demos, Tips and Techniques
</ul>
Hope this helps,

Video or step by step tutorial link for create forms using template.fmb

Hi,
Give me link which provides step by step tutorial or video tutorial for the following:
1. where should i save the template.fmb and library files in my local machine
2. how to create customize form using template.fmb
3. how to do test run that form in local machine (i'm asking this because the template form having reference to app libraries)
3. how to convert .fmb to .fmx
4. how to register that form in apps
i understood about how to do the above process through existing threads in this forum, but i getting lot of errors and confusion while i'm implementing. so please tell me steps or give link which provides details.

What Forms version are you using? While you're at it, what is your database and OS versions also? Can you provide us with an example of the type of errors you are getting?
(i'm asking this because the template form having reference to app libraries)Developing Forms for Oracle Enterprise Business Suite (EBS) is different from non-EBS applications because of the EBS Framework and standard processing that occurs.
Your BEST resource for developing EBS Forms is the Oracle Applications Documentation library. Select your EBS version and then find scroll to the Standards section and review the following documents:
<ul>
<li>Oracle Applications Developer's Guide
<li>Oracle Applications User Interface Standards for Forms-Based Products
<li>Oracle Application Framework Personalization Guide
</ul>
For most of your questions, you'll find the answers in the aforementioned documents.
1. where should i save the template.fmb and library files in my local machineMy guess is that many of the errors have to do with attached libraries. The APPSTAND.fmb, TEMPLATE.fmb and all of the Apps Libraries (.pll) must be in the FORMS_PATH. Which means you will need to modify the FORMS_PATH registry entry for your Forms version (6i or 10g) and EBS version (R11 or R12).
3. how to do test run that form in local machine (i'm asking this because the template form having reference to app libraries)You can't - there are too many EBS Framework calls that will generate errors when the form runs outside of the EBS Framework. You have to test your form in a Test/Dev EBS system.
3. how to convert .fmb to .fmxUse the Forms compiler executable. (frmcmp.exe - on Windows)
4. how to register that form in appsThis process is too indepth to explain in the Forum - read the Administrator Guides ;-)
I get the feeling you are trying to learn this on your own rather than attend a class. My advise is to attend some classes. They are well worth the investment! :)
As to videos, you might want to try searching uTube. I've seen some Forms tutorial videos out there in the past.
Lastly, your best source of 'Forum' help is the General EBS Discussion forum.
Hope this helps,

How to create Test Form using TEMPLATE.fmb in APPS

Hi,
I need to create a Test Form (Extend oracle Forms) and deploy it in custom ASO_TOP.
When I opened TEMPLATE.fmb(AU_TOP) i received following error.
FRM-18108 Failed to load the following objects.
Source Module:APPSTAND
Source Object:Standard_PC_AND_VA
Source Module:APPSTAND
Source Object:Standard_Toolbar
Source Module:APPSTAND
Source Object:Standard_Calendar
How can I resolve this error and proceed forward.
Thanks,
Mithun

It means that the Test form has a reference to those objects and it can't find them. You need to make those files (forms and/or libraries) available to Forms Builder.

But i got these errors :(

Hi,
You may want to post in [E-business suite|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=3] forum as this is a standalone forms forum.
However, for your error, have you tried setting the FORMS60_PATH environment variable (to the folder where you have all the apps related fmbs/mmbs/plls/olbs) before starting the forms builder (Or append to the FORMS60_PATH in your f60desm.sh).

How to compile form orginal file(*.fmb) in UNIX environment

These days, i encounter a problem, i create a form application in Windows2000 or WindowsXP environment, then i compile this .fmb file to .fmx, then i transport this .fmx file to Unix environment which is our Application Server, the Oracle Application Server is in this Unix environment, i put this file in the directory which is directed in the Forms_Path variable, however, when i started to run this application by entering a valid url, the message shows that this fmx file is not runtime file, someone told me that i should recompile the orginal file under unix environment, so i transport the orginal file(.fmb) to unix environment, then i want to use the f90genm tool to compile the .fmb file, however, it shows that this command can not execute, it shows that can not open a lib file under:/project/.../../..,however, this directory does not exist at all, what case this error? i also use f90gen command, it shows: can not execute/finish creation, i want to know, how to use the two commands and what parameters i should set before using the commands? thanks

If you are talking about forms 10g then here is the method
1) run x windows interface on your machine
2) login to linux server
$ export DISPLAY=<IP address of machine>:0.0
$ frmcmp.sh module_type=form module=myform.fmb userid=user/password@connectstring compile_all=yes

How to call forms using Hierarchical Tree in Forms 10g?

I know how to call forms from menu that attached to a top form.
I would like to call forms using Hierarchical Tree. Does any one know how where I can find some instructions on using Hierarcical Tree to call other forms? Any discussion is welcome. Thanks.

Thanks to Francois.
The exampe with clear instructions and I can build tree that calls forms now.
I add a OPEN_FORM statement in WHEN-TREE-NODE-ACTIVATED trigger
Declare
     LN$I Pls_integer ;
Begin
:Ctrl.Node_Activated := Ftree.Get_Tree_Node_Property('BL_TREE.MENU', :SYSTEM.TRIGGER_NODE, Ftree.NODE_VALUE) ;
If :Ctrl.Node_Activated IS NOT NULL Then
     Set_Alert_Property( 'AL_CALL_FORM', ALERT_MESSAGE_TEXT, 'Calling module : ' || :Ctrl.Node_Activated ) ;
     LN$I := Show_Alert( 'AL_CALL_FORM' ) ;
     open_form(:Ctrl.Node_Activated);
End if ;
End ;
Or call physical form path by:
     open_form('c:\tree\'||:Ctrl.Node_Activated ||'.fmx');
I enter the VALUE of MENU as the Form fmx name and it works very well.
Thanks so much.

How to develop forums using J2SE

How can we develop forums using J2SE technology.

Take a look at the question. It does very muchlook
like a textbook question. I don't think that theOP
will implement a forum without JEE.Neither do I. Nor do I think he will implement it
with JEE.
I agree!
By the way, you could do it all using sockets, not
even HTTP requests. Serialization might actually be
quite efficient - less overhead. as compared to HTML.The ReneForumProtocol? And of course he'll build the client for this as nothing but the best MVC Swing app you ever saw.

How instal developer (forms and reports ) on Apple Mac

I want to install oracle 6i forms and report on Apple Mac note book. how i and where i can download developer installer for MAC OS.
Thanks

Apple Mac is not a suitable platform to install oracle products. You can take a look at the Oracle Certify Matrix and you can build up your own conclusions.
In this case, use your Apple Mac for documentation, get a Microsoft Windows Based platform, and choose a certified platform.

Developing Forms using server f60desm using a Mac client running X11

Hi,
You would think that this would work, but sadly I get the old generic error that forms likes to throw:
FRM-91111: Internal Error: window system startup failure.
FRM-10039: Unable to start up the Form Builder.
Yes, I have DISPLAY, NLS_LANG, FORMS60_PATH, etc. set correctly and I can run things like xclock, xterm, etc.. When I use a Windows PC running Exceed, I can get f60desm to work, so it's not the server.
Has anyone been able to get this to work?
Antony.

If you've ever seen my posts before, you'll notice that I always answer my own questions! :)
Turns out the quartz window manager that comes with OSX is a bit crap. Well, it works with most things but not Oracle motif products!
So I basically installed "fink" which is a package installer tool (then FinkCommander which is a GUI front end for it). Then I used fink to install other window managers, ie- icewm or fvwm. Then I start X (from terminal), then the window manager (from another terminal), do all the usual setup (xauth, or xhost <server hostname>, telnet to server, set DISPLAY then run f60desm) and it works!
I can now say I can do all my development on a Mac! JDeveloper works fine, OAF JDeveloper works fine, BPEL JDeveloper works fine and now Forms/Reports running from the server works fine! Goodbye PC! :)
