Thanks Francois!
Your info will be useful to me, as my customers were complaining about it.
I didn't give attention or did any R&D on it because I thought for us main challange is to make ERP work on web first.

Dear users....One of the big difficulties users facing in my 10g forms applications is that its Function Keys have totally changed like that of Enter-Query or Execute-Query. In forms 6i user was habitual of working with F-7 & F-8 for this purpose but in 10g its quite different. Can u tell me that how can I match the functionality of these Function Keys in 10g to that of Forms-6i???

Hey Arun...I've read urs recommended post, I wish to give u 10 pts if u give me the answer for this question too ;) Can I use my newly created fmrweb.res in my own application? I mean other users should keep on using the default fmrweb.res file but I should use the file compatible with 6i shortcut keys. Is there any configuration for this in formsweb.conf file?

How to enable tracing in Oracle Forms 10g

Hi Friends,
I am interested to trace my running oracle forms application. When I googled it, I got below useful information. But theory and practical has mismatch somewhere, I am not able to create the trace file(s).
**************************** Some Notes ****************************************************
How to Enable Tracing in Oracle Forms 10g
Enable Tracing from the url by adding the following to your forms url:
&record=forms&tracegroup=0-98,100-199 (note: item 99 causes some issues, so we are skipping it here. See the Oracle documenation for a description of what is being traced for each item.)
for example
[http://machine:port/forms/frmservlet?config=myConfig&record=forms&tracegroup=0-98,100-199]
You will get a trace file in the following location:
%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace\forms_xxx.trc where xxx is the forms session ID.
Open dos window and do the following:
set ORACLE_HOME=
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdk\bin;%PATH%
set CLASSPATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip;%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\java\frmxlate.jar
java oracle.forms.diagnostics.Xlate datafile=%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace\forms_xxx.trc outputfile=%ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace\html_xxx.html outputclass=WriteOutHTML
you will get a file html_xxx.html in your %ORACLE_HOME%\forms\trace directory.
I need information beyond this to make this practically successful.
Thanks in advance,
Amol Naik

How to convert 6i function keys file to 10g

Hi,
is there any way how to migrate 6i Forms binary resource file with function keys to 10g Forms text-based resource file with function keys (e.g. fmrcsw.res -> fmrweb.res)?
Thx.

this is a manual way of migration you have to do, as I know. Extracting from Oracle Terminal and importing in fmrweb.res is not supported

Functions Key like forms 6i in 10g

Hi, i want to set the key functions F7= enter query, f8=execute-query in forms 10g like forms 6i. I don´t like F11 and ctrl-f11
Regards

Hi,
You can change the key mappings by changing the file fmrweb.res in the *<dev_suite_home>\forms* directory. If you want to change all the key settings as in 6i, then make a copy of the fmrweb.res file for a saftey and rename the file fmrpcweb.res as fmrweb.res.
Regards,
Manu.

How to use a function PIPELINED in Forms 10g?

Hi guys,
When I tried to use a function PIPELINED in Forms, I received the message:
- PL/SQL function called from SQL must return value of legal SQL Type
FOR rec_dev IN (SELECT *
FROM TABLE(p1196.f_executa('01-aug-2010', -- pdDataInicial
'30-aug-2010', -- pdDataFinal
5, -- pnCodAdm
NULL, -- pnCdsCod
NULL, -- pnAdmsSrvCod
NULL, -- pnAcao
NULL)))
LOOP
vnQtdeEstornos := vnQtdeEstornos + rec_dev.qtde_estornos;
vnVlrTotalCredito := vnVlrTotalCredito + rec_dev.valor_credito;
END LOOP;
Can anyone help me?
Cris

You can't. One option would be to wrap your pipelined function in a view, or you could write a stored procedure which returns a strong ref cursor instead.
cheers

How to use LDAP with Oracle forms 10g on Oracle application server

Hi,
I need some help on this. I have developed oracle forms 10g on application server 9iAS. The client want to use the existing LDAP authentication to the software we wrote. I do not know how I could configure to use the existing LDAP authentication . If anyone know how would I use the existing LDAP on different server to use when they logon to our menu in 10g to validate the user. Do I need to add any varibales in formweb.cfg or any other method. Please help.
Thanks
Luksh

I am not quite sure if this works out of the box. According to an Oracle FAQ:
4.2 Can I use LDAP to authenticate Forms Services?
Not directly. However, Oracle Login Server is able to authenticate against a LDAP directory and thus a Forms application can take advantage of this in a SSO environment. But you cannot use access control information stored in a LDAP directory with Forms.

Possible to redefine function keys via Ansi ESC sequences in terminal?

If it is possible, I would be be very grateful if somebody could be so kind as to show me a couple of examples.
BACKGROUND:
I want to reconfigure my function keys in terminal,via ansi-escape-sequencenses from
a script, before invoking the "screen" utility, to make it less cumbersome to use.
It's really nifty, if you want to see som manpages, without ending up with a zillion of terminalwinwindows, and you can name the windows too, so you can easily see the difference between
terminfo and bash for instance, - but the keypresses for invoking screen is quite cumbersome.
I will try do it by ansi-sequences, but I haven't managed to do that yet.
I want to store other keypresses, like [^A"] on functionkey F2 for instance.
I have no intention to restore the keys, as i just close the window when I'm finished using screen.
I have configured my function keys in terminal, and I think that writing new values for them in the defaults database, and be able to use the new configuration from within terminal is a little to much to expect.
If anybody has a solution not including ansi sequences, I'm open for that as well.
Sincerely
mc Geek

Thank you. That wasn't what I had in mind, but thats what I'll go for, as I can't seem to figure out how to send and ansi escape sequence that does it, and creating a new terminfo file with the new settings, exporting it, and and creating a new subshell is just too much work. "Screen" runs fine now, with some function-key bindings.
sincerely

How to create business charts in Forms 10g?

In the old days, before and in 8i, we can still create business charts using Graphics Builder with the following graph types. How can we build business charts in forms 10g?
Column: Shows discrete values using vertical columns
Bar: Shows discrete values using horizontal bars
Gantt: Shows task or project scheduling information using horizontal bars
High-Low: Shows multiple Y-axis values for each X-axis point
Line: Shows data values as points connected by lines to show trends
Mixed: Combines a column and line chart
Pie: Shows how individual data values contribute to an overall total
Scatter: Plots 2 sets of potentially related data to identify possible trends
Table: Shows text data in a table
Double-Y: Shows a column or line chart with multiple values for the same X-axis value

On the samples page on OTN there is a piece on how to use BI beans to achieve business charts. Search for "BI bean Graphs in Forms".
