Problem executing form 10G

Hi Buddies;
I'm trying to execute FORM 10G, but when I choose Run Form, I get this error message;
Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer
A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused Internet Explorer to close this webpage.
Previously I could execute the form, but after some problems in my laptop and had to reinstall the OS.
Now I got this problem.
Have any idea how to solve this?
Also, I was trying using Firefox, but getting similar error message.
Suggestions are welcome.
Regards
Al

Hi,
You have to replace the JVM.DLL in the directory *<Program Files>\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.22\bin\hotspot* with the latest jvm.dll(2.2Mb) from here.
And if you are using Explorer 8, then do the following.
1. Open Internet Explorer 8
2. Go to Tools, Internet Options
3. Click on the Advanced tab.
4. Scroll down into the Security section and find “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks”.
5. Uncheck “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks”.
6. Click Ok and Ok again.
7. Reboot your computer.Regards,
Manu.

Unicode problem in Forms 10g

Dear Everybody,
Re : Oracle 10g DB for linux
Oracle Forms 10g for Windows/Linux

i need to put two chinese words on two column label in Forms. one is traditional chinese UTF8 and other one is
simp. chinese UTF8. it develop by Forms on windows and re-compile it on linux then deploy it on IAS on linux.
it is fine when i access from IE. i can see two difference chinese words in forms. but when i try to resize the fonts and make the fonts to bold.
it still same as before.
Why the fonts size no effect ?
i think the problem is cause by Jinitiator.
is it correct ?
The two chinese words as below : -
T.C : ç¹é«ä¸æUTF-å«é«
S.C : ç®ä½ä¸æUTF-å«ä½

The date item property was defined as:
data type: datetime
maxium length:17
initial value: $$DATETIME$$
format mask: DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI
changed to ->
data type: datetime
maxium length:30
initial value: $$DATETIME$$
format mask: DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS
It still does the timestamp switching for the record 1 and 2. If the record 1 and 2 are inserted more than a minute apart, then it works. Anything to do with database datetime setup?

How to put iconic button in forms 10g?

Hi All,
I've created a button with iconic property set to yes and icon file set to open. in forms 10g
But when I run the form, the button appeared without the open icon show!

In webforms, you have to put your icons in a jar file and put the jar file in a directory where Java can read from. the easiest place to put the jar file is the %ORACLE_HOME%/forms/java directory found in your Oracle installation directory
for instance if you have your devsuite installed in C:\devsuite10g put the jar file in C:\devsuite\forms\java.
check out [url http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/webicons.pdf]Webicons it has both detailed steps to deploy icons in webforms and an easy and fast way to do it.

RANK() function problem in Form 10g

I am using form 10g R2. I wrote codes inside a trigger of a button to select from one table, named test. The code is as follows:
select mm,pp,rr from test. The form can compile this code.
But when I write teh code select mm,pp, rank() over(order by pp desc) rr from test, the form can not compile. Itshows the following error:
Encountered the sysmbol "(" when expecting one of the following:
, from into bulk.
The table has only one record. It works in SQL environment but the form can not compile this RANK() OVER() function.
Do you have any idea to use RANK() OVER() function in Form 10g?

Some analytical functions do not work in client-side sql in forms, you'll have to encapsulate your logic in the database.

Font problem in Forms 10g

We are upgrading an application(forms and reports) from 6i to 10g. We are testing the application from 10gDev. Suite. The forms in 6i contains certain fonts like Arial Narrow (Western),Wingdings (Western),Arial(Western),Terminal,Tahoma,Fixedsys,Times New Roman (Western). When the form is ran from web, the fonts are not coming up correctly (font in layout is different from web version).
I followed the forums here and added the font mapping in registry.dat, but still the fonts are not coming up correctly in web. Can some one help me how to configure the fonts in 10gDS?
Foll. is the entry from the registry.dat file
default.fontMap.appFontnames=Courier New,Courier,courier,System,Terminal,Fixed,Fixedsys,Times,Times New Roman,MS Sans Serif,Arial,Arial Narrow (Western),Wingdings (Western),Arial (Western),Terminal,Tahoma,Fixedsys,Times New Roman (Western)
default.fontMap.javaFontnames=MonoSpaced,MonoSpaced,MonoSpaced,Dialog,MonoSpaced,Dialog,Dialog,Serif,Serif,Dialog,SansSerif,Arial Narrow (Western),Wingdings (Western),Arial (Western),Terminal,Tahoma,Fixedsys,Times New Roman (Western)
Thanks in advance.

Our application too uses wingdings font as a label on button. Its displaying boxes and workarounds in metalink notes Note:243034.1 and Note:454102.1 are not bearing fruits. Does anyone have solution.
One alternative is to make the buttons iconic and create ico/gif file for the character placed as label, but the fact that our application has hundreds of forms is a matter of concern.
If anyone knows the exact solution to this problem, pls help out.

Icons in Oracle Forms 10g (10.1.2.0.0)

Hi,
How can I center my icons in a toolbar canvas. I'm migrating from Forms version 5 to Oracle 10g and have converted the icons from *.ico files to *.gif files.
Any help will be appreciated.
:@)))

... and beside of what Jan said, look at the following whitepaper:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/webicons.pdf
Note that all directory names and file names that have a "90" in it are now without or have a frm prefix instead.

How to create iconic buttons in forms 10g.

I am trying to create a iconic buttons, same I am able to do it in forms 6i but not in 10g. And also please give me a proper example of java bean items in forms 10g

dear sunny
are u able to do the iconic button on 10g forms i try but appear the icon on button I have alreay do the following
Runtime Configuration
1) Creating Jar file
i) Once you are ready with your GIF files or JPG files, create a folder called ICONS. You can create this folder anywhere. For e.g. you can create ICONS folder on a C drive under root directory or as a sub-folder under any folder.
ii) Assuming you have created ICONS folder as a root folder on C drive, now copy all your GIF files in this folder.
iii) Go to the DOS prompt and enter cd\
iv) At C:\ prompt enter the following command to create Java Archive File (JAR) called my_icons
Jar ?cvf my_icons.jar icons
(Note: If above command don't run then paste icons foled at C:\DevSuiteHome_1\jdk\bin.)
v) Copy this file in <Forms10g_Home>\Forms\Java folder.
Please remember that having the name of the folder holding GIF/JPG files as ICONS is very important. Because if the folder name is something else, icons will not be displayed in your form at run time.
2) Modify REGISTRY.DAT file
i) Open this file located in <Forms10g_Home>\forms\java\oracle\forms\registry folder.
ii) Append the existing parameter default.icons.iconpath as follows:
default.icons.iconpath=icons/
iii) If you are going to use GIF files as image files for icons, then leave the existing parameter default.icons.iconextension=gif as it is. If you want to use JPG files instead of GIF files, replace GIF with JPG as shown below:
default.icons.iconextension=jpg
3) Modify FORMSWEB.CFG file
This file exists under <Forms10g_Home>\Forms\Server folder.
Append the following existing parameters:
i) imagebase=codebase
ii) archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,frmwebutil.jar,jacob .jar,my_icons.jar
After doing above configurations, create a form and place an icon on the button. Set button's icon property = Yes and give name of icon.
NOTE: This icon shoul be in jar file. If u want to add more icons in jar file then u will have to create JAR file again. Also again place it in <Forms10g_Home>\Forms\Java folder.
pls if u have any solution send me

Timestamp problem in Forms 10g

In a 10g form (using 10g database, running on MS-W2000, Linux-Redhat)
Record 1 is entered and saved at 12-JAN-2006 13:20:49.
Record 2 is entered and saved at 12-JAN-2006 13:21:25.
Then, these 2 records have the timestamp reversed upon retrieval:
Record 2 12-JAN-2006 13:20:49.
Record 1 12-JAN-2006 13:21:25.
How can this happen? Any idea or suggestions? Please help.

The date item property was defined as:
data type: datetime
maxium length:17
initial value: $$DATETIME$$

Call_form problem in Forms 10g

I am using Developer 10g R2. I tried to call a form named form1 from another form. But it can not open the form and shows the following error:
FRM 40010: Can not read form form1.
Then I tried other functions open_form, Go_form. But it does not work.
I tried to find the solution from this forum, I found some posts but nothing helped.
Oracle relases complex version day by day. Can anyone please help me?

If you use CALL_FORM OPEN_FORM or NEW_FORM oracle needs to find the according fmx-file in the file-system. To not have to scan the whole servers file-system, you configure the directores where your forms are located in the env-file of your application (asuming you use forms10g). By default, this file is located in $ORACLE_HOME/forms/server/default.env (where $ORACLE_HOME is the directory you installed the developer-suite to). In tihs file, there is a setting FORMS_PATH. There you have to put the directory where your fmx's are located.
