How to open an Oracle 6i Form from a button

Hi,
I have a button on an order form that im trying to open the customer form from i am using the code:
begin
call_form('Customer',no_hide,do_replace);
end;
i get the following error msg:
FRM-40010: cannot read form Customer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also i am going to develop a log on screen that will validate a user name and password but cannot find any info on this. Any links or tips would be great!
Thanks!

Please ask your logon question in a separate thread.
The "cannot read form" message means Forms cannot find the file named Customer.fmx in the path where it expects to find the form. If you are running on a unix system, the file name must match upper or lower-case exactly, as well.

How to Open an Oracle Apps Screen from a web page

Hi,
We have requirement for Opening an Oracle Application screen (say sales order form) directly from a web page.
I could get the URL of the required screen, but the URL contains an ICX_TICKET number, which is generated dynamically by Oracle Apps. So I can't use a static URL for this.
Do you know how I can use or generate an ICX_TICKET in runtime? My user will have an active Oracle Application screen opened along with web page. He want to navigate to Oracle Apps screen from Web page. Hopes this makes the requirement more clear.
Thanks for your time,
Aneesh

Hi Helios,
I have identified a function to generate ICX_ticket. By appending this ticket, I am able to open the Oracle Apps screen. Now, is there in implication on the security side, if I go ahead this way?
Function
fnd_gfm.one_time_use_store(icx_sec.GetSessionCookie(CZ_CF_API.ICX_SESSION_TICKET),300,'FORMS_APPLET')
Anyways, I am raising an SR as u suggested.
Thank you,
Aneesh

How to open empty superdrive tray aside from keyboard button

I did come across this knowledge base article but all options are good only when there is something in the drive.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2575
To open an empty tray, is there a way other than pressing eject button on keyboard?

Thank you very much. It was mentioned as one of the methods in the knowledge base link provided in my previous post but I failed to see what it did. Now that you mention it, I noticed an eject icon on the menu bar and when I click on it, I see the option to open the superdrive.
One of the reasons I asked is that I am planning on using a non-Apple keyboard (I like to be able to use backlit keys - I'm a half-baked touch typist who work in a darkened room from time to time) but it is not fully compatible with Apple, namely the function keys.
Thank you once again for the solution.

How do I creat a filliable form from a scan document?

How do I create a fillable form from a scan word document using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

Hi melaniev10032955,
You might need to follow these steps to convert word into fillable PDF form:
Open the scanned word document
Click File> Print> Adobe PDF
A PDF file would be created that would automatically open in Acrobat XI pro
At this point, you would have a basic PDF file which still needs to get converted into fillable form
Choose "Tools> Text Recognition> In this File" to run OCR to make your scanned doc searchable.
Now, go to "Tools> Forms> Create"
Acrobat will ask some questions. On the first screen, make sure 'Use an existing file' is selected and then click Next.
On the next screen, 'Use the current document' must be selected.
You might need to edit few fields manually. Then, just click Preview button on the top and check how you PDF form appears.
Try this out and let me know if you face any problem.

Anubha

Calling Oracle Ebusiness Forms from a Webcenter Portal application

Hello All,
Would there be any known/standard procedure of calling Oracle EBusiness Forms from a Custom WebCenter Portal Application. The issue we are facing currently is that we are successfully able to call an Oracle EBS Forms as a GO Link from the application. The problem is when there are multiple links to open different EBS Forms. Multiple instances of the Forms sessions are created. We would like to have only one. We are trying to mimic the Oracle EBusiness Home Page / Landing Page.
Any pointers are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Nachi

Hi.
Are you using Portal or Framework Portal?.
In case of <noscript> is generated by JAVA internal classes and the unique way to change the message is with a Non supported workaround overriding a CoreBundle class.
About the af:skipLinkTarget usually is in the Page Template. The default templates has it in next snippet:
<f:facet name="center">
    <af:skipLinkTarget>
    <af:facetref facetname="content">
    </af:facetref>
</af:skipLinkTarget>
</f:facet>
If you're using default Templates then copy them and remove the af:skipLinkTarget tag from the copied one and assign it to the Portal.
I hope it helps.
Regards.

In Acrobat 11 you'd select: Tools > Forms > Edit

How to send error message to forms from Database Trigger

Hi, Please help me to send error message to forms from Database Trigger?
RgDs,
Madesh.R.M

You are correct, the On-Error trigger is a Forms trigger. However, if your Form is going to display the error generated by the database stored procedure or trigger - you might not see the database error in your Form unless you check the DBMS_ERROR_CODE in the On-Error trigger and manually display the Error Code and associated Text. I've see this happen with a co-worker. The Form she was working on was based on a table with an Before-Insert trigger. Because she was not explicitely handling the error from the Before-Insert trigger in the Forms On-Error trigger, her Form appeared to halt for no reason at all. Once she added code to the On-Error trigger in the Form to handle the DBMS_ERROR_CODE, she discovered the trigger was producing an error and was able to show the error to the user in the On-Error trigger.
I understand the desire to keep as much as possbile in the database, but with that comes some extra coding in your Forms to handle this. This extra coding could easily be placed in a Forms Library, attached to a Form and called in the On-Error trigger. Your code could look like this:
DECLARE
   /*This example assumes you have an Alert defined
      in your Form called: 'ERROR' */
   al_id    ALERT;
   al_text VARCHAR2(200); /* Max text of a Forms Alert message*/
   al_btn   NUMBER;
BEGIN
IF DBMS_ERROR_CODE != 0 THEN
   /* Error code is ORA-00000 Normal Successful completion
       So only handle non-zero errors */
   al_text := DBMS_ERROR_CODE||':'||DBMS_ERROR_TEXT;
   al_id := Find_Alert('ERROR');
   set_alert_property(al_id, alert_message_text, al_text);
   al_btn := show_alert(al_id);
END IF;
END;Your original question was "How to send error message to forms from Database Trigger?" The answer is you don't because Forms already gets the database error code and database message through the Forms DBMS_ERROR_CODE and DBMS_ERROR_TEXT functions. Look these up in the Forms help and it should clear things up for you.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?

how is the EHD where the library is located formatted?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?

How to Open an Oracle Report From a JSF Page

Hi there,
I would be really grateful if anyone would find me a solution to the following scenario:
In my company, we have a project where we have to convert Oracle Forms and Reports to Java Web Application. The conversion of forms is being done thourgh JSF/ADF technology but how can i open an Oracle Report from a JSF page after supplying it with parameters ? Or i have to do some type of conversion before ?
Once again i would be thankfull for your replies.

Tapash,
Thanks for reponding.
Here is the URL I am currently using :
https://gccss.glendale.edu:8001/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?server=rep60_crp3+userid=apps/pswd@crp3+report=/u07/oracle/crp3appl/gcccus/11.5.0/reports/US/GCC_ACCRUAL_BAL_0505.rdf+desformat=html+paramform=yes+destype=cache+p_accesscode=""
The p_accesscode is the parameter I need to pass to the Oracle report.
Currently, when I click the button, it invokes the above URL and takes me to the parameter form of the Oracle report and when I enter the Username, it runs the report and displays the desired output. But, what I need to achieve is, to pass the current user who has logged in behind the scene and to get rid of the parameter screen totally. Is this doable ? If yes, please help me !!!
Thanks

If you want to run forms without the IE browser (hidden)
Try this
To open web forms just like client server with a hidden IE window, I have invented two methods.
****** make seperateFrame = True on formsweb.cfg ******
Method 1
<job id="SYMA">
<script language="VBScript">
Const SW_HIDE = 0
Const High = 128
strComputer = "."
strCommand = "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE http://symphony-devl.atradiusnet.com/forms/frmservlet?config=syma"
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
& strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
' Configure the Notepad process to show a window
Set objStartup = objWMIService.Get("Win32_ProcessStartup")
Set objConfig = objStartup.SpawnInstance_
' Create Notepad process
Set objProcess = objWMIService.Get("Win32_Process")
intReturn = objProcess.Create _
(strCommand,Symphony, objConfig, intProcessID)
If intReturn <> 0 Then
Wscript.Echo "Process could not be created." & _
vbNewLine & "Command line: " & strCommand & _
vbNewLine & "Return value: " & intReturn
Else
Wscript.Echo "Process created." & _
vbNewLine & "Command line: " & strCommand & _
vbNewLine & "Process ID: " & intProcessID
End If
</script>
</job>
Method 2
<job id="SYMA">
<script language="VBScript">
dim objShell
set objShell = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
objShell.ShellExecute "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE", "http://ws-79767.atradiusnet.com:8890/forms/frmservlet?config=localJpi", "", "open",0

Change the URL as appropriate, it's fantasitic .... !!!!!!

Calling Oracle Standard Form from OAF page - Need to hide the find screen.

Hi all,
i have a requirement where i need to call a oracle standard form(D2K form) from OAF page and need to pass parameter. Now i can able to call a form from page on button click using the following syntax,
"form:AR:US_AR_SUPER_USER:STANDARD:AR_ARXCWMAI_AGE"
My query here is, When i call this form its open with find Form and after values are entered it goes the main form.
I need to hide this find screen which is avaiable in standard and need to call directly the main form with out find form.
Please help me out to reach this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Renu

You need to pass the parameter to the actual form to display the results something like "form:AR:US_AR_SUPER_USER:STANDARD:AR_ARXCWMAI_AGE&P_PARAM=123", assuming P_PARAM is the actual parameter defined in the form. Open the form and check which parameters are available and pass the values accordingly.
Thanks

How to fill out POST HTML forms from my Java Application?

Hi -
I am writing a little Java GUI program that will allow a user to fill out data from the GUI and then submit that data. When they submit the data (two text fields) I want to take the two text fields and submit them via the POST form method of a HTML document over the web.
Here is what I got so far:
host = new URL("http", "<my_address>", web port, "/query.html");
            InputStream in = host.openStream();
            BufferedInputStream bufIn = new BufferedInputStream(in);
            for (;;)
                int data = bufIn.read();
                // Check for end of file
                if (data == -1)
                    break;
                else
                    System.out.print ( (char) data);
            }What that code does is makes a URL, opens a stream, and reads the HTML source of the file at the specified URL. There is a form that submits data via the POST method, and I would like to know how to write data to specific forms and specific input types of that form.
Then, I'd like to be able to read the response I get after submitting the form.
Is this possible?
Thanks,

Here is how one of my e-books go about Posting
I tryied in one of my projects and it works ok
(Tricks of the Java Programming Gurus)
There's another reason you may want to manipulate a URLConnection object directly: You may want to post data to a URL, rather than just fetching a document. Web browsers do this with data from online forms, and your applets might use the same mechanism to return data to the server after giving the user a chance to supply information.
As of this writing, posting is only supported to HTTP URLs. This interface will likely be enhanced in the future-the HTTP protocol supports two ways of sending data to a URL ("post" and "put"), while FTP, for example, supports only one. Currently, the Java library sidesteps the issue, supporting just one method ("post"). Eventually, some mechanism will be needed to enable applets to exert more control over how URLConnection objects are used for output.
To prepare a URL for output, you first create the URL object just as you would if you were retrieving a document. Then, after gaining access to the URLConnection object, you indicate that you intend to use the connection for output using the setDoOutput method:
URL gather = new URL("http://www.foo.com/cgi-bin/gather.cgi");
URLConnection c = gather.openConnection();
c.setDoOutput(true); Once you finish the preparation, you can get the output stream for the connection, write your data to it, and you're done:
DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(c.getOutputStream());
out.writeBytes("name=Bloggs%2C+Joe+David&favoritecolor=blue");
out.close();
//MY COMMENT
//This part can be improved using the URLEncoder
//******************************************************You might be wondering why the data in the example looks so ugly. That's a good question, and the answer has to do with the limitation mentioned previously: Using URL objects for output is only supported for the HTTP protocol. To be more accurate, version 1.0 of the Java library really only supports output-mode URL objects for posting forms data using HTTP.
For mostly historical reasons, HTTP forms data is returned to the server in an encoded format, where spaces are changed to plus signs (+), line delimiters to ampersands (&), and various other "special" characters are changed to three-letter escape sequences. The original data for the previous example, before encoding, was the following:
name=Bloggs, Joe David
favoritecolor=blue If you know enough about HTTP that you are curious about the details of what actually gets sent to the HTTP server, here's a transcript of what might be sent to www.foo.com if the example code listed previously were compiled into an application and executed:
POST /cgi-bin/gather.cgi HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: Java1.0
Referer: http://www.foo.com/cgi-bin/gather.cgi
Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2
Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-length: 43name=Bloggs%2C+Joe+David&favoritecolor=blue
Java takes care of building and sending all those protocol headers for you, including the Content-length header, which it calculates automatically. The reason you currently can send only forms data is that the Java library assumes that's all you will want to send. When you use an HTTP URL object for output, the Java library always labels the data you send as encoded form data.
Once you send the forms data, how do you read the resulting output from the server? The URLConnection class is designed so that you can use an instance for both output and input. It defaults to input-only, and if you turn on output mode without explicitly setting input mode as well, input mode is turned off. If you do both explicitly, however, you can both read and write using a URLConnection:
c.setDoOutput(true);
c.setDoInput(true); The only unfortunate thing is that, although URLConnection was designed to make such things possible, version 1.0 of the Java library doesn't support them properly. As of this writing, a bug in the library prevents you from using a single HTTP URLConnection for both input and output.
//MY COMMENTS
When you doing URL encoding
you should not encode it as one string becouse then it will encode the '=' signes and '&' signes also
you should encode all the field names and values seperatly and then join them using '&'s and '='s
Ex:-
public static void addField(StringBuffer sb,String name, String value){
   if (sb.length()>0){
      sb.append("&");
   sb.append(URLEncoder.encode(name,"UTF-8"));
   sb.append("=");
   sb.append(URLEncoder.encode(value,"UTF-8"));
}
