How to get absolute path of a form within the Forms

Aslam o Alikum (Hi)
How to get absolute path of a form within the Forms 6i or 9i
For example
i am running a from "abc.fmx" from C:\myfolder directory
can i get the form path 'C:\myfolder' by calling any any function from "abc.fmb"

There is no direct call that will always work. What you need to do is call get_application_property(current_form). This may have the full path in it, depending on if that path was defined when the form was launched. If there is no path, then you need to use TOOL_ENV.GETVAR to read the Forms<nn>PATH and the ORACLEPATH, parse those out into individual directories and then check for the FMX in each.
I already have some code to do all this for you see:

How to get highest number of open cursors within the current calendar day

Hi all ,
i need to know how to get the highest number of open cursors within the current calendar day.
Thanks ,

the issue is my customer is getting the error ORA-01000: maximum open cursors exceeded and we need an sql statment that gets the following values :
-highest number of open cursors experienced in the current calendar day.
-current open cursors
-and maximum open cursorsThis error is rare. It happens when
a) the value of the open cursor parameter is set extremly low (default is something like 1000). Low would be something like 10.
b) <strike>you have many concurrent users(=sessions) and </strike>the application does not use bind values
In this case each select will open a new cursor, instead of reusing it.
c) you have a select that opens a cursor for each line. This can happen with a statement where you have the CURSOR keyword somewhere in the select or where clause. Those cursors will be closed when the select is finished. But during the run time of the select, all cursors stay open.
To track the number of "open cursors" during the day you would need to implement some monitoring. Maybe based on the view that was already mentioned.
Edited by: Sven W. on May 16, 2011 2:30 PM - since the parameter is on session level, other open cursors should not influence it much.

Getting absolute path of a file running in remote machine

Hi,
I want to get the absolute path of a file that will be created in the remote server. Inside a directory XYZ in remote machine, the file will be created and the remote machine's address is xxx.xx.x.x. I have used the following snippet
File f=new File(Filename);
f.getAbsolutePath();
Now, in the output am getting the absolute path of the file as d:/XYZ/Filename. Is there any way to get the output as xxx.xx.x.x/XYZ/FileName ? Can someone please suggest why the server details are not fetched and instead the directory name is fetched.
I am running the program to get absolute path of a file in my remote machine. and for accessing that remote file from my machine, I use xxx.xx.x.x/XYZ/FileName.
Thanks in advance.

I'm going to take it a step further and guess at what the OP is going to say next.
On host w.x.y.z there's a file /a/b/share/some_dir/file.txt.
Host w.x.y.z is sharing the /a/b/share/ directory as SHARE.
Client mounts \\w.x.y.z\SHARE as D:, so that he sees D:/some_dir/file.txt.
OP now wants to know not just that D:/some_dir/file.txt is \\w.x.y.z\SHARE/some_dir/file.txt, but also wants to know that on w.x.y.z, SHARE corresponds to /a/b/share.
@OP: If that's what you want, forget it. Part of the premise of file common drive/directory sharing protocols is that the client does not know or care and does not need to know or care what the absolute path is on the serving host. It's none of his business.

How to get names of INCLUDE or FORM within included forms

Hello,
I want to get names of Include program and included form within included forms.
I tried SY-REPID or SY-CPROG but these two SYST variables return the name of report program that performs the form, not the name of Include or form.
Please give me any advice about how to get names of include / included form.
thanks and regards,
Hozy

You can use the statement
READ REPORT <Report name> into itab
to read the source code into an internal table.
Later you can use the "Contains Pattern" operator to get the statements that you need.

How to get physical number of selected row on the screen.

Hi,
We have block defined with Numbers of Records Displayed = 3. In the same time the data set contains 10 records. We would like to know how to get a number of row selected on the screen. i.e. in our case that the number will be always between 1 and 3 independent of the current row position in the data set.
Best regards,
Constantin.

You can calculate that number by subtracting :SYSTEM.CURSOR_RECORD and GET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('BLOCK', TOPMOST_RECORD)

How do i get it back! i bought most of my music on itunes but i just dont have any idea where to go and whjat to do can any help me??
Respond please!

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then see if you can redownload your past music purchases (those that are still in the store) via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you are not in a country where music can currently be re-downloaded, then have you not got it on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

It should keep asking for the password, because it's trying to check for purchases... As soon as you login, it will see you have pending downloads and create the downloads section on the left below Purchases under the Store section. Then it will start the music downloads there, as they will be listed one below the other.
You could just try to check your account balance or view your account and that will trigger a password request too. You can just click on that and say that now iTunes keeps asking for the password and ask him to help you with that. Trick would be to interrupt him so that he carries on with another task after, so he doesn't notice the download. Or you carry on with email or browsing which you were "busy" with when iTunes interrupted you for the password (stupid iTunes)
