Image item in multi-record block - PLEASE SOMEONE HELP !
Hello everyone.
I have a multi-record block with an image item that is not in teh table, is populated in the post-query trigger with a read_image_item, from a gif file. This block is child of another block. The problem is that the first records of the block, the ones that fit on the screen, are not showing the image properly, the image appears grey, distorted. In reality, the image dont adjust to the size of the item, as it is especified in the properties. When i scroll down, the rest of records show the image perfect, but this ones still are distorted.
Forms is 6.0.8.22.1, over oracle 9i. Thank you all in advance.

ToolTip_Text not working in multi - record block - Please Help!!
Dear Friends & Gurus,
I'm using Forms Version 6.0.8.21.3 (due to many reasons) in C/S mode. Now I have a multi record block in which I am showing the Employee No. My customer's requirement is when I place the mouse on this Emp no., the emp. name must be displayed. I thought of achieving this by ToolTip_text. For this I'm having a Database function which returns the name (as I use this functionality in many forms), in the When-New-Item-Instance block level trigger I'm calling that function with passing the emp code as below
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(:SYSTEM.CURSOR_ITEM, TOOLTIP_TEXT, FUNC_DIS_EMP_NAME(:SYSTEM.CURSOR_VALUE));But it is working only when I point the mouse in the first record. When I click on 3 or 4 record and then point to the first record, I'm getting the 3 record's name but in the first record.
Please help me - I searched through the forum and I find no accurate answer. It is urgent - please help.
Thank you.
With Kind Regards,
Perumal Senthil Alagu.Dear Safwan Bhai,
As salaamo alaikum Rahamatulla hi burakathu!!
Actually I'm having a multi record block in which all the emp no., days of attendance, etc will be displayed when I click on the search button. My requirement is when point the mouse over the emp no, the emp name must be displayed as a Tool tip text. My fields are non-editable, so Post-Change is not working. I placed the coding in the When-new-item-instance - in this case the emp name is displayed, but only for the first field, when I move the mouse to second and third fields, the empname of that particulart field is displayed as a tool tip but in the first field only.
Any other suggestions?
Anyway I would appreciate your help.
Thank you.
With Kind Regards,

Re-sequencing records in a multi record block
I have a multirecord block with sequence No field which is unique no and other fiels which is showing from the values which I have stored in a table say sequence No from 1 to 10 along with other fields.If I change the record which has the sequence No say 6 to become seq no 2 ,then the record with seq no 2 should become seq no 3 and the rec with seq no 3 should become seq no 4 and rec with seq no 4 should become seq no 5 and rec ord with seq no 5 should become seq no 6.This should automatically happen when the user changes say
seq no 6 to seq no 2 .User may change any seqq no like this.
We will provide 2 text box serialNo from and Serial No 2 and a button click should swap the records in between this two seq no and show it on the screen in the multi record block.Please help me to code this.
Regards
Jayshree SureshUser455091,
1- You can add a non based checkbox item to your block. To resequence a record, you may have to check the record you want to change and then, check the position you want to change it for. Example: if you want to change the 6th to seq 2, you check the record 6 and check the record 2 right after (you can choose any logic to implement your sequence change. this is only an example).
2- When you check the first record, set a global variable "seq_from" with the value of the sequence field (or :system.cursor_record if the block is ordered by this sequence)
3- When you check the 2nd record, set a global variable "seq_to" and proceed to the resequence.
4- Manage the change down and change up (if "seq_from">"seq_to" or "seq_from"<"seq_to")
5- You have to change the values of all the record fields for all the records between seq_from and seq_to. by doing a loop between seq_from and seq_to. You may have to use previous_record or next_record depending on if it is a change_qown or a change_up.
6- When the resequence is done, reset all the variables to blank, and don't forget your checkbox!
This seems difficult, but only think about it. It is easier than what you expect. This method is more user-freindly but, just think about it.... -
Get the first item value of previous record in a multi record block
Hai,
I have a multi record block with four items.I should get the first item value of the previous record so that I can increment its value in the current record.
Thanks.........If you want a distinct value in each row or to be able to retrieve the records in the same order they were written then you should use a sequence.
If you want to retrieve the records in the same order they were created in the block then you will need a diffferent solution to the one you outline here since a user could enter a new record between two others.
I posted this a while back in response to someone who was using a sort_key item and resetting it for each row when a new record was inserted:
If you make the sort_key bigger then you have much more room to insert new rows in between existing rows without having to reset all the sort_keys.
Eg. you have rows with sort_keys of 129282000000000000 and 129283000000000000 (you can have more zeros if you want) and you want to insert a row in between. if you're using oracle forms then the user would have to click on the first of these rows and then do 'insert'. in your insert process you would store the sort keys of the current record and the one below, create a blank record in between and set the sort_key of that record to the average of the other two. you will be able to insert many new rows in between the original 2 before running out of space in the sort_key field.
the method above is not sufficient, there are some other cases to consider:
1) when the user is on the last record of the block then you will just create a new record with sort_key set to a greater number than the row before. you can have the sort_key defined as number(38) and to safely allow you to enter 1000 rows each new row would normally be 10E33 greater than the previous one.
2) when the user is entering the first record then just set the sort_key to 10E33.
3) on the off-chance that you do insert a great number of records and cannot insert another in between then you would need to alert the user, process the records so that the sort_keys are evenly spaced and requery the block. this processing could be scheduled nightly to make this eventuality even less likely.
4) make sure the user cannot run the default 'clear_record' procedure. this would break my method as well as yours!

Updating a value of a text item in a multi record block based on a change
Hi,
I need to change the value of a text item in a multi record block based on a change to another item's value in the same block.
Suppose there's a text item in a multi record block called dt1 which is of type date, which is changed in a particular record. I want to change the values of the another item in the same multi record block, for all other records by running a loop through all the records in multi record block. I dont want to do it on the press of a button, it should do automatically on change. Help me resolve this issue.Hi,

About populating a non-database item in a multi-records block
Hi, all
I have a problem about populating a non-database item in a
multi-records block. This block is set to database block with a
controlled item which needs to be populated after query. so I
create a post-query trigger, but my problem is when the records
listed in this block are less than 10 ( the record number is set
to 10), the trigger fires no problem. but when the retrieved
records are greater than 10, the error message is 'post query
trigger raised unhandled exception ora 01403'. anyone can help me
fix this problem?
Thanks in advance
DianaDiana,
When you have an unbound item in a block and want to fetch
some data into it you need to write a post-query trigger.What
you have done is right.But it seems that u are getting a No data
found error.I am sure about how u r populating data into that
field.If u have written a select statement to fetch the data in
post-query trigger, kindly handle an exception and find out the
problem.Having a look at ur code(pos-query) would be much more
helpful for giving a better solution.Try this a let me know.
Thanks

Editing record items in a multi-record block - 1 record at a time.
Hello,
I have the following scenario: Currently in my multi-record block, to edit an item of a record, the user has to double click on the record to enable the 'save changes' button. However, I want to turn the navigation to all other records turned off. The only way the user should be able to edit other records is save changes first, then again double click on the desired record to re-enable the 'save changes' button (at this time navigation to all other records should be turned off). ie., the user should be able to edit 1 record at a time (At any given time, I won't be having many records in the block which the user may have to modify).
How can this be achieved?
Thanks,
ChiruThat is pretty odd requirement, but this might work:
When the user double-clicks the record, enable the Save button, and set a value in any column of the record to its current value. This will cause Forms to set the record status to CHANGED, and will not permit navigation away from the record until the When-validate-record trigger runs successfully.
In the Save button, start a non-repeating timer to run maybe 20 milliseconds, then issue a Validate(Record_Scope); command. Check form_success then commit_form.
In the when-validate-record trigger: Do any record validation that may be necessary, and Raise Form_Trigger_Failure if anything is wrong. Then check for the existence of your Save button's timer. If it does NOT exist, issue a message like: "You must Save the changes first" and Raise Form_Trigger_Failure; If the timer exists, do not raise the error. -
Duplicate item value in a Multi-Record Block
Is there a way to chek duplicate value entered in multi record block?
I have seen some solutions in this forum however nothing has worked for me till now. (using the formula, creating hidden items & creating group etc)
Thanks in advance,To see if there are any other records in the block with the same value, use Kevin Clark's famous function to trap duplicates. You can find Kevin's function write up here:
Re: checking for same rows in a tabular
From Kevin's post:
Create a field PK_COPY in a control block.
Create program unit function COMPARE to compare two input params returning 1 if they match else 0.
Create a field in the datablock PK_MATCH, calculation property formula, formula COMPARE(:DATA_PK, :PK_COPY)
Create a field in the control block NO_OF_MATCHES, calculation property summary, summary type SUM, summarised
item PK_MATCH.
Also, your control block requires the Single Record property set to yes, and the base table block requires the Query All Records property set to yes.
WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM on DATA_PK
:CONTROL.PK_COPY := :DATA_PK;
if :NO_OF_MATCHES > 1 then
message('You have already used that one');
Raise form_trigger_failure;
end if; -
Query about multi record block
Abdetu
Please clarify this
I have a multi record group on the canvas, which displays 5 records at a time. The block is based on a table. All the items, except 3 items are displayed items.Now in the block I have a list item, in which I have two values "PO" and "TSF".. If user selects PO, associated text items will get enabled and user will be entering the values .. Same is the case with TSF .. And at the end user selects Ok button to save the record to the database
Now while fetching the records (based on query) ..once the records are fetched, control will be on PO/TSF list box, now the user can either change PO to TSF or TSF to PO ..or he/she may opt not to change also.. If user changes PO to TSF, only that particular record's TSF fields should get enabled .. The problem what I am facing is, when the control comes to PO/TSF list box.. since its multi record block, all the record's PO/TSF list box are getting enabled
In the sense, if control is in the 1st record of multi record block, only those fields should get enabled, once the user navigates to the text item which is the last of that particular record, then 2nd record should get enabled....
Can I know the solution
Regards

SeshuHello Seshu
ur case explanation should be in points 1,2,etc as possible leaving extra lines and spaces in between .. and the case should be more clear and summarized like:
1- I have multi-records data block.
2- I have a static list item with 2 values eg. (a and b).
3- Depending on selecting from the list some items r enabled.etc.
Kindly note that, this will facilitate ur problem to be more readable,recognizable and save time and effort of someone who wants to help u.
Here comes the confusion:
Now while fetching the records (based on query)
The problem what I am facing is, when the control comes to PO/TSF list box.. >since its multi record block, all the record's PO/TSF list box are getting enabled i think with the piece of code i have just posted to u this can't be happened since it disable all the record's PO/TSF.
if this didn't solve ur problem i suggest either u post ur code to help u or u try to put some validations with :
if statment inside the loop depending on the list item's values which will enable or disable related items to the list.
Hope this help u,
If any Questions pls let me know..

How to do validation on multi record block at run time...
Dear Friends,
I have to do validation at run time on multi record block.
If user tries to enter and save two or more records in same multi record block with same data at run time, it should not allow it and display a message like, " error : Records are having same(duplicate) values. "
I already did validation with the data coming from database table using cursor. But confused about how to do at run time(on one screen only) ??
Please, give details about how to check duplicate records on form block before saving it to the table ????
Regarding details would be greatly helpful.
thanks,Hi...Pankaj
thanx for your reply..
I already did validation for the data coming from table....
but I need to do it on form only...at run time...
exa...
In one multi record block
record no : column 1 : column 2 : column 3
1 abc 123 hi
2 abc 123 hi
so it should check on the form itself, here I m not getting data from table...I am just
navigating from first record to second using down arrow.
so, may be 2 possibilities.
1) when user navigates using tab to third record, it should say like two duplicate records.(may be like when validate record or item)
2) or when user tries to save, it should say two duplicate records.
so, everyting should take place on form screen only.....
waiting for your reply,
thanx... -
Problem in displaying records in multi record block
Hi all,
I have a problem in displaying records in a multi record block in a form.
I have 1 control block and 1 data block(multi-record block).
Control block has one item CUSTOMER-ID. Data block has many other items related to customer.
when a value is entered in customer-id text item, all the relavant details should be displayed in the data block.
but, the records are overlapping in the same line in the data block, actually they have to be displayed one record per one line.
The code is,
IF :CUST_BLOCK.CUST_ID IS NOT NULL THEN
GO_BLOCK('XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS');
FOR C1 IN C
LOOP
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CUST_ID:=c1.site_use_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CAT_ID:=c1.ipc_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.MFG_ID:=c1.mfg_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.INVENTORY_ITEM_ID:=c1.inventory_item_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_BASIS:=c1.price_basis;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_FACTOR:=c1.price_factor;
END LOOP;
Please help me out..
Thanks in advance!
SumanHi Suman
IF :CUST_BLOCK.CUST_ID IS NOT NULL THEN
GO_BLOCK('XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS');
first_record;
FOR C1 IN C
LOOP
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CUST_ID:=c1.site_use_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CAT_ID:=c1.ipc_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.MFG_ID:=c1.mfg_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.INVENTORY_ITEM_ID:=c1.inventory_item_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_BASIS:=c1.price_basis;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_FACTOR:=c1.price_factor;
next_record;
END LOOP;
Try this. you are trying to show all the records in same line. so its overlapping.

Check duplicate data entry in multi record block,which is a mandatory field
Dear all,
I have a situation where i have to check duplicate data entry(on a particular field,which is a mandatory field,i.e. it cannot be skipped by user without entering value) while data key-in in a Multi Record block.
As for reference I have used a logic,such as
1>In a When-Validate-Record trigger of that block I am assigning the value of that current item in Table type variable(collection type)
as this trigger fire every time as soon as i leave that record,so its assigning the value of that current time.And this process continues
then
2>In a When-Validate-Item trigger of that corresponding item(i.e. the trigger is at item level) has been written,where it compares the value of that current item and the value stored in Table type variable(collection type) of When-Validate-Record trigger.If the current item value is matched with any value stored in Table type variable I am showing a message of ('Duplicate Record') following by raise_form_trigger failure
This code is working fine for checking duplicate value of that multi record field
The problem is that,if user enter the value in that field,and then goes to next field,enter value to that field and then press 'Enter Query 'icon,the bolth Validate trigger fires.As result first when-validate record fires,which stores that value,and then when-validate-item fires,as a result it shows duplicate record message
Please give me a meaningful logic or code for solving this problem
Any other logic to solve this problem is also welcome@Ammad Ahmed
first of all thanks .your logic worked,but still i have some little bit of problem,
now the requirement is a master detail form where both master and detail is multirecord ,where detail cannot have duplicate record,
such as..........
MASTER:--
A code
A1
A2
DETAIL:--
D code
d1
d2 <-valid as for master A1 , detail d1 ,d2 are not duplicate
d2 <--invalid as as for master A1 , detail d2 ,d2 are duplicate
validation rule: A Code –D Code combination is unique. The system will stop users from entering duplicate D Code for a A Code. Appropriate error message will be displayed.*
actually i am facing a typical problem,the same logic i have been applied in detail section ,its working fine when i am inserting new records.problem starts when i query,after query in ' a ' field say 2 records (i.e. which has been earlier saved) has been pasted,now if i insert a new record with the value exactly same with the already present value in the screen(i.e. value populated after query) its not showing duplicate.................could u tell me the reason?and help me out...............its urgent plzzzzzzzzz
