How to query the master block based on one of the values in detail block

Hi,
In version 6i forms, I have a field in data block which is not set as a database item. I am using that field to store a value from detail block. If I want to query the form using that field (which represents one of the values from detail block), how do I do that? Any pointers?
TIA,

Do you want to query a master, which contains a specific detail? If so, here's an example how you could do it with a PRE-QUERY-trigger:
DECLARE
  vcQuery VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
  IF :MASTERBLOCK.THE_DETAIL_SEARCH_ITEM IS NOT NULL THEN
    -- Build up an exists Sub-Query
    vcQuery:=' MASTERBLOCKID IN (SELECT FK_TO_MASTERBLOCK FROM DETAILTABLE WHERE DETAIL_COLUMN=''' || :MASTERBLOCK.THE_DETAIL_SEARCH_ITEM|| ''')';
  END IF;
  SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('MASTERBLOCK', DEFAULT_WHERE, vcQuery);
END;

  • Searching master block based on value in detail block

    I have two blocks on a form. A master block for purchase orders and a detail block for the line items. I need to provide users with the ability to search the purchase orders based on the values entered into the detail block (line items), during the query entry. I am considering to check to see which block the cursor resides by using the :SYSTEM.CURSOR_BLOCK variable, then retrieving the value from the current item and running a query, using that query. The problem is that I am not very familiar with Forms and do not know how to implement my idea. Any ideas?

    I copied you an example from metalink. Hope it will help.

    PURPOSE
    ------- To query a master record from a detail record. DESCRIPTION
    =========== The user would like to enter a query criteria in the detail block
    and then query the master record based on the above user input. SOLUTION
    ======== Create the master and detail blocks and the relationship in the usual
    manner. We will consider here the blocks DEPT and EMP based on the
    SCOTT schema. 1. Create a KEY-ENTQRY trigger at the block level of the detail block
    (EMP) and add the following code in it : GO_BLOCK('dept');
    CLEAR_BLOCK(no_commit);
    GO_BLOCK('emp');
    ENTER_QUERY; 2. Create a KEY-EXEQRY trigger for the detail block and add
    this : EXECUTE_QUERY;
    :global.deptno := :emp.deptno;
    :global.flag := 'T';
    GO_BLOCK('dept'); This will store the value of the deptno (primary key) in a global variable
    :global.deptno and set another global variable :global.flag to 'T'. This
    will be explained as we progress. 3. Create a WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE trigger for the detail block
    and add the following : -- This is used to populate the MASTER block with the corresponding
    -- record whenever the user navigates through all the records in the
    -- DETAIL block if get_record_property(:system.cursor_record,:system.cursor_block,status) = 'QUERY' then
    SELECT rowid,deptno,dname,loc
    INTO :dept.rowid,:dept.deptno,:dept.dname,:dept.loc
    FROM dept
    WHERE deptno = :emp.deptno; -- This is to set the status of the record populated
    -- to QUERY and not to create a new record SET_RECORD_PROPERTY(1,'dept',status,QUERY_STATUS);
    end if; 4. Create a WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger for the master block again
    and add this : if :global.flag = 'T' then -- set the variable to a different value
    :global.flag := 'F';
    :dept.deptno := :global.deptno; -- This will query the master table for the record based on the
    -- deptno of the detail table which is stored in :global.deptno -- For ex: if an employee of department 10 has been queried in
    -- the detail, then the global.deptno will have the value 10,
    -- which is used in the query below to fetch the master record. SELECT rowid,deptno,dname,loc
    INTO :dept.rowid,:dept.deptno,:dept.dname,:dept.loc
    FROM dept
    WHERE deptno = :global.deptno;
    set_record_property(:system.cursor_record,'dept',status,QUERY_STATUS);
    GO_BLOCK('emp'); end if; EXPLANATION
    =========== Actually in the above method we are using the base table blocks as a
    non-base table block when we query the master from detail. We are
    displaying the master record fetched from the table based on
    the query supplied in the detail. So after the fetch, if we clear the
    block or form then we get a "Do you want to save the changes you have made"
    alert. So in order to supress this while entering a normal master-detail
    query, we have created the global variable, :global.flag. There is a limitation though, if you query detail records and then
    navigate to the master block and then press the down arrow( i.e.,
    navigate to the next record) and then presses the up arrow to
    navigate back to the same record, then the detail records that
    were originally populated will change and a new set of records will
    get displayed. This is because the normal master-detail query is
    taking place during MASTER record navigation. This can be controlled by creating a flag (global variable) and setting
    its value and thus preventing the user from navigating to the next master
    record. Do the following : 1) In the KEY-EXEQRY trigger of the detail add the following :global.control_master := 1; 2) Create a KEY-EXEQRY for the master and add this : :global.control_master := 0;
    EXECUTE_QUERY; 3) Create a KEY-DOWN in the master with the following in it: IF :global.control_master <> 1 THEN
    down;
    END IF; Declare all the global variables before running the Form. RELATED DOCUMENTS

  • How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?

    How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?
    it drives me nuts having to emove all the other websites when I want to upload one. 
    Sparrow

    For iWeb, I like to do only one site per domain file.  I move domain files out of the Application Support folder and place them inside project or client folders, or in DropBox. Once you duplicate a domain file and begin customizing it, it will load and behave as a separate project/site.
    I publish each iWeb domain/project direct to a server via FTP. Sometime I publish to a folder, then upload via FTP manually.
    iWeb is a remarkable tool, especially when you work from scratch with blank tamplates
    Here are a few of my iWeb sites:

  • This is my first mac i have 2 hard drives installed how do i move photos or documents from one to the other

    i just bought my first imac i have 2 seperate drives on it. how do i move photos and documents from one to the other.

    This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
    You can move your iPhoto Library to an external or secondary internal disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust one and then have to copy and paste this length.

    Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust a text clip and then have to copy and paste this each time. Ideally, there should be something in User Preferences but there is not. Thanks.

    Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project.  And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip.  Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad."  When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as. 
    I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software.  

  • I'm creating a book format in Pages. I want the page count to be 1 on the first page of chapter one after the title page, table of contents, etc.. How do I do that?

    I'm creating a book format in Pages. I want the page count to be 1 on the first page of chapter one after the title page, table of contents, etc.. How do I do that?

    That is not the issue.
    Pages/OSX does not save files with crop marks and bleeds.
    It also by default saves transparency, which is involved in a lot of Pages' better features, at a rubbishy 72 dpi resolution.
    It also makes it extremely difficult to maintain mono-color like black only text, has no spot color and makes color management opaque.
    It really is only meant for amateur publishing and printing to your desktop printer.
    A commercial printer who is willing to use and print from Pages may have better results but at the cost of considerable micro-management which defeats the point of this "cheap" solution.

  • How do I resend an invite email for one of the user in my Aruba Central account?

    Q: How do I resend an invite email for one of the user in my Aruba Central account?
    A: Aruba Central allows administrator to create multiple user of different access levels to help manage the system.  As new uses are created by administrator, an invitation email is sent to the user's email address to activate the account. 
    In certain situations, these emails get into spam or junk folders with no visibility to end-user. These are cases, where re-sending an invitation email is of much helpful.
    Follow these steps to resend invite email to a specific user:
    Login to Aruba Central and click on "All Groups"
    In the left-menu, click on "Maintenance" and then "User Management"
    Clik on "Resend Invite email" and mention the email address you wanted to send the invite again:

    By default, the Menu Type option for menus is set to Top Level Pages. You can change this behavior by choosing Menu Type > All Pages from the menu options. The steps to do this are described in Adding a Horizontal Menu widget

  • How to get the Output File Name as One of the Field Value From Payload

    Hi All,
    I want to get the Output file name as one of the Field value from payload.
    Example:

    Please suggest me on this.
    Regards

    Hi,
    There are couple of links already available for this. Just for info see the below details,
    The Output file name could be used from the field value of payload. For this you need to use the UDF DynamicFile name with below code,
    //       Description: Function to create dynamic Filename
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
    conf.put(key,a);
    return "";
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
    conf.put(key,a);
    return "";
    With this udf map it with the MessageType as
    (File Name field from Payload) > DynamicFileConfiguration>MTReceiver
    Thanks
