How to enable attachment icon to a custom form

Hello all,
I am developing one custom form in 6i version.. can any one help me how to enable attachment icon to a custom form..
Thanks in advance.

What exactly are your trying to do when you say "enable attachment icon"? Also, since you mention "Custom Form" I assume you are developing in the Oracle Enterpise Business Suite (EBS). Whatever you are attempting, there may already be an "Apps Approved" method for doing this. I suggest you review the Applications Documentation specifically the Oracle E-Business Suite Developer's Guide and Oracle E-Business Suite User Interface Standards for Forms-Based Products guides. Also, you might want to post your question in the General EBS Discussion Forum.

  • How to bring status icons in the Adobe Form.

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to Adobe forms and I need to bring a icon indicating the satus ( For example green icon shoud be displayed if the values exceed our expection ) . Currently if I try to bring an icon in the form it is just displaying the text value corresponding to the icon even though the icon is of data type  ICONTEXT (For Example:Instead of displaying a icon in green it just displaying the corresponding text values like '@@4' ) . When we try to display the same icon in the table view it is displayed in a form of image.
    Kindly let me know how to bring status icon in the adobe forms.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Nandha

    Hi,
    The ADS will not understand this as an icon and create it on the PDF. If you want to insert an icon in the
    PDF you should insert it as an image in the Designer.

  • How to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms

    Otto Gold at the forum "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe" gave me the tip that Sandra Rossi in this forum might help me out. Here is the link to my original thread How to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms
    My question was:
    Hi Experts!
    Did anyone of you manage to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms? In order to save administration effort we use frontend printing in our ERP system. We just changed some SMARTFORMS to the new Adobe Forms technology. Now we learned that direct frontend printing does not work with these forms.
    Any help will be very much appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Gerald

    I think you'll be disappointed by a rather negative answer but I'll try to explain everything I know (or think I know) the best I can
    The simplest solution is to do a preview, and print from Adobe Reader! (as I could see on one project, users have to display one more dialog than usually to print) It's the best workaround according to me.
    How Adobe form printing works:
    When you print an Adobe form from SAP, a printer language (PCL, PS, ZPL, PDF) is retrieved from TSP0B table according to the device type, ADS (Adobe Document Services, installed in the SAP java stack) is then contacted to generate the form: a file corresponding to the printer language is generated and sent back to SAP (there are also 2 other little files but it's of none interest here). SAP stores it as a file (named SPOOL...) in the global directory (DIR_GLOBAL when you use AL11 transaction).
    When you ask SAP to print it, it sends the file as is to the printer.
    Note: when you ask SAP to display the spool, SAP sends a request to ADS which will send back a PDF (binary stream which is not stored on disk, just displayed on frontend).
    How frontend printing works:
    If you want to print a normal spool via frontend, SAP doesn't know the language of the printer you will choose. SAP sends the spool in a format named SAPWIN to a frontend program named SAPLPD, it converts the SAPWIN format into GDI, a Windows format that is understood by all printer drivers, and it is sent to the printer driver (you have selected) which converts the GDI format into the printer language.
    Any workaround?
    First possibility would be that ADS converts the PDF into SAPWIN format (by creating an Adobe .XDC file at the ADS side). SAP says it's not possible in Note 685571 - Printing PDF-based forms. As I understand, SAPWIN is a very simple language compared to PCL for example, so it is very difficult to convert a PDF to SAPWIN without losing much information. There's a SAP note about the SAPWIN language if you want to check.
    Second possibility is to print directly the PDF through Adobe Reader: you get the PDF from ADS, download it to the frontend (easy), and execute directly Adobe Reader print function. Unfortunately, I don't know if it's possible. Moreover, we should enhance the standard SAP print dialog...
    Third possibility is the one I recommended at the beginning of this post

       into internal table using the syntax READ REPORT (just see f1 help on it)
    READ REPORT prog INTO itab [MAXIMUM WIDTH INTO wid].
    2. Then we can loop / search the internal table for the required term.

  • How to set org in a Oracle custom form

    Hi,
    We are migrating a custom form from 11i to R12. But the form and LOVs in the fields dont return any values in R12. The custom views attached to these LOVs, return values in toad when the org is set. We think that the issue is that the org is not initialized in the form.
    Can anyone help on how to resolve this?
    Would it help if we used "MO_GLOBAL.SET_POLICY_CONTEXT('S',fnd_global.ORG_ID);" in the when new form instance trigger in the form.
    Thanks

    YOu should ask your question in an ebusiness-suite related forum.

  • How to enable Multi-record select in Oracle Forms

    Hi
    we recently upgraded to R12 -- 12.1.3.
    we have a requirement in which I should let the users select multiple records in a tabular Form (custom form).
    Currently we have a custom form that displays Open sales orders with credit holds. After selecting the record, the user can release the hold on the order by clicking on a button. The requirement is for enabling selection of multiple records and release.
    We have a similary functionality in 'Quick Sales Orders' form. In this form, multiple lines can be selected by pressing 'CTL' and clicking on the records.
    I read about using APP_MULTI for this. But I couldnt figure out how to enable the multiple selection.
    If someone could throw some light on this, it would be greatly helpful

    See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3291758/how-do-i-use-the-app-multi-package-to-support-multi-selection-in-my-oracle-form for steps/sample code.
