How to upgrade 6i form to 11g forms which includes OLE container ?

The migration assistant has no upgrade for that. You need to get a Javabean or PJC:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e10394/items.htm#sthref207
I don't know what kind of OLE files you have, but if it's just Word and Excel, I would you use browser functionality instead and get the doc's via web.show_document. That, however, doesn't give you update possibility.
You can also use webutil file transfer to get the file to the PC, modify it there, and transfer back to the database.
Then you still have a problem. Documents uploaded via Forms OLE container are actually modified by Forms before they are stored in the database. So, don't throw away your 6i version yet.
You need to get all the stored documents out via Forms 6i and save them as a normal document on the file system. Then you can store them back in the database using some other tool, like dbms_lob or webutil's file transfer.
There are some related discussions on his forum, so just use the Search option, e.g.

Adobe form Error "Memory protection fault in OLE container control"

Hi,
I am getting the error "Memory protection fault in OLE container control" while trying to open the layout tab of adobe forms.
I am getting this error for all the adobe forms.Please let me know the solution.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Nuthan.

I can reproduce this error consistently.. This is how: Install Microsoft SQL Server 2008.
As soon as I remove SQL 2008 the error went away. Adobe LiveCycle Designer was invoked via OLE2 interface. Apparently SQL Server 2008 (as in my case or some other applications in your case) modified the way OLE2 behaves and therefore causes this error.

How can I download CS5 to a computer which does not contain an optical drive?

I am considering purchasing a 8GB Ultrabook (Sony or Dell) and was wanting to install Adobe CS5 onto it. I purchased Adobe CS5 suite last year via disc and have only realised Ultrabooks do not have a DVD drive. Is there a way I can install my purchased copy via an Internet download using my registration/security key or do I need to purchase an external DVD RW drive to install the software?
Will a 8GB Ultrabook be sufficient to run Adobe CS5 on?

Deeselle you can download CS5 from http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html. Please make sure to complete the Very Important Instructions section prior to scrolling down the page and clicking on the download links.

How would I digitize a hand drawn logo (which includes letters and other drawings) using photoshop cs6?

@

Scan or take a clear photograph (with good lighting). Import in Photoshop. Clean it up, remove noise, etc. Straighten, etc.
Then decide whether Photoshop is the best tool for this job. It depends mostly on the logo design. In most cases Illustrator would be a far preferable choice for this type of work. Import the image in Illustrator, and start tracing the lines with the vector tools (pen tool). After finishing the line work, start adding the colours.
Done.

How to upgrade Forms 11gR2 to use JAVA 7 after it was installed with JAVA 6

I recently installed Forms 11gR2 on a development server. We are trying to have the latest versions of everything to migrate from Forms 10g and assure we have support for the next few years.
Our platform has the following software configuration:
Solaris 10 (Update 19) SPARC 64 bits
Weblogic 11g (10.3.6) that was installed with Java JDK 1.6.0_38
Forms 11g R2 (11.1.2.1) that was also installed with
Java JDK 1.6.0_38
I tried to install Weblogic and Forms using the latest Java 7 JDK (1.7.0_25) but I got an error in the final steps of Forms setup, when I was configuring the domain. I searched online and found a couple of tips but nothing worked. The installation was stuck at the
Creating Weblogic Domain step. So I decided to try the installation process with the Java 6 JDK that we are using right now for Forms 10g, and it worked perfectly. I have now two options but I don't know which one might be the better path:
Uninstall Weblogic and Forms 11g completely, and try to re-install them again with Java 7, trying to fix the error that I got at the end of the configuration process.
Try to upgrade the current Forms 11g installation from Java 6 to Java 7. I found a blog that might suggest it is possible, but I don't know if it may cause additional issues along the road. http://pitss.com/us/2013/02/20/how-to-use-java-7-with-oracle-forms-11g-in-an-oracle-supported-environment/
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have, or if any of you has experience installing Forms 11gR2 with Java 7 it might be great to know how to fix this error. It might be worth mentioning that when I installed Forms and Weblogic with Java 6 I used exactly the same values, ports, options and paths. The error appears like this in the installation logs and the process hangs there:

Well if I got it to work with java 6 I'd leave it alone, to say the least. The elephant in the room is the certification matrix.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/overview/index.html
there's 2 issues, what jdk does forms on the server want? Bigger question, what JRE is acceptable on the client?
You would surely want the jre to be 7 on the client. Regarding the jdk on the server, you could leave it as is IMHO.
Note that there was a patch to 11gr2. In conclusion, be sure to check the cert matrix regarding what is certified for the jdk for the server.
I think the matrices are saying that if you have forms 11.1.2.1.0 that you can use the jdk 7. but like I said the big issue is what can the client use?
As I read the matrix I think it is saying you have to have 11.1.2.1.0 to use the jre 7 on the client.
So I would say if you have 11.1.2.1.0 on the server you are good because it's not a problem to have the jdk 6 on the server, if not you have to apply the patch in order to enable the jre 7 on the client.

How to create Lookup field in user form in OIM 11g - Urgent

Hi Experts,
How to create Lookup field in User Form - OIM 11g.
Pls. provide your support on priority.
Regards
Karan

Thanks all for your suggestion.
Our requirement, is we need to have a user defined field similar to how its there in "Organisation".
For example we need to create an user defined field like "Service Holding" which holds different services say like Service 1, Service 2, Service 3 etc.
Under each service there are multiple roles....
Eg:
Service 1 - Role 1, Role 2, Role 3
Service 2 - Role 4, Role 5
Service 3 - Role 6, Role 7, Role 8
Is there a way to store multi-valued attribute in OIM UDF? If so, pls. guide us
If its not possible we would need to create a Lookup field (something similar to Organization or Manager). User clicks on the button (lens button), which should invoke an API wherein he can select specific Roles and save in User. Eg. like Service 1 - Role 1#Service 2 # Role 5 and store in the backend database.
Is this possible. Pls. guide.
Regards,
Karan

How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing p

How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing parameter to it.
how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.

how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.This would entirely depend on crystal reports and you might find informations on crystal reports related communities more likely...I for one have seen crystal reports the last time about 12 years ago. And even back then I simply acknowledged it's existence instead of working with it.
Maybe crystal reports can be invoked via a URL call which would make it simple as you'd need simply build an URL and show the report using web.show_document. But that's pure speculation. Also you might not be the first with this requirement, so the solution to your problem might be right under your nose and just a little google search away ;)

How to debug a form module (Oracle 11G Forms) through URL

How to debug a form module (Oracle 11G Forms) through URL.
My server OS is Unix. So i could not able to do the Debug Forms from the Form Developer.
It is displaying a message that "Cannot find the module". Becuase the system is trying find out the module in Unix system instead of ma local system(Windows).
I need to debug ma module through URL.
I can place the fmb and fmx in predefined form path in Server.
Please help me out to solve this issue..

This is a little unclear. If your goal is to use the Forms Builder Debugger while running your form on a Unix machine, this can be done. However, the form must first be in running order. So before trying to attach the debugger you must first be able to start it without the debugger. For example:
http://yourServer:OHS_port_number/forms/frmservlet?form=yourFMX
Once this is properly running you can turn on debugging. If your form won't even start, then using the Debugger isn't going to help you because it is designed to troubleshoot coding problems and not configuration problems.
So, do this to use the Debugger:
http://yourServer:OHS_port_number/forms/frmservlet?form=yourFMX&debug=yes
This will display a dialog box with some information. Do not click on OK yet as you will need this information to enter into the Forms Builder. Now, open the Forms Builder and click on Debug > Attach Debug. You will be asked for the information displayed in the dialog where you attempted to start the form. Enter it here (in the Builder) then click on ok in both places. To display the Debugger (in the Builder), click on Debug > Debug Console. Then from its toolbar click on the buttons related to what you want to monitor. Including a break point in your application code is often a more helpful way to use the debugger.
Most of this information is explained in the Forms Builder Online Help
Forgot to mention...
To debug runtime issues, refer to the Forms Deployment Guide here (this assumes you are using 11.1.2):
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E38115_01/doc.111210/e24477/appa.htm

How to upgrade to Oracle Forms 9?

I want to know how to upgrade from Forms 6 to Forms 9! Is there any script delivered by Oracle which has this functionality? Please help me!

Axheim ,
There are some batch scripts.
But here what I did to upgrade Forms from previous version to the current version.
Install new version (9i DS) on the same box in separate oracle home.OR you can install in another box.
And opened the forms from the previous version in new Form builder (in ur case 9i). Save it, compile it and generate FMX.
Ctrl plus Shift plus K,
Ctrl plus T will generate FMX.
And you done.
Pl. remember once you opened fmb in latest version you can not go back.
So backup your old version.
I assumed each Form is compiled successfully in your previous version (6i), if not then you'll get errors in 9i also. Fix in 6i first and then move or fix in 9i.
Regards,
Diana
