Italian computer, English Oracle forms, how to ?

I'm an italian user and my computer settings are italians.
Also forms appear in italian, however help is in english and it's quite hard to translate back and forth from italian to english and vice versa.
Is it possible to start, in my italian computer, forms in english (it's easier for me to understand than the italian one) ? How ?
Tks
Tullio

Hi,
It's really simple to change your Forms language into english. Just edit your registry entry NLS_LANG of your developer suite into your preferred language. At the moment it may be ITALIAN_ITALY.[somewhat]. Change it into e.g. AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P15, that may help.

  • In oracle forms how to restrict creating new record

    I have a multi record block, I dont want to create new record. If I use the down key after the last record control is moving to next record. I dont want this to happen. I want to scroll between first and last record.
    Can anyone tell me ?

    Look up the Forms Help for 'system.last_record'.
    I'd code the KEY-DOWN trigger on the block as...
    IF :System.Last_Record = 'TRUE' THEN
    Bell;
    Message('You are on the last row');
    ELSE
    down;
    END IF;
    This avoids any processing or validation work being done on leaving the current record or creating the new record.

  • How to run database procedure in oracle form

    Hi,
    I have created a database procedure, it run successfully at server side, but I need to run it on oracle form, how I'll do ?
    Thanks
    Baloch

    Baloch,
    Essentially, you call your database stored procedure the same way in Forms as you do in SQL Plus. The difference is that you need to call the procedure in a Forms Trigger versus a SQLPLus prompt. The Forms user must have execute privileges to the stored procedure as well. The Forms trigger depends on when and where you need the procedure to run. For example, if you need the procedure run in conjunction with a button pressed in your form, you would code your When-Button-Pressed trigger to call the stored procedure. If the db user is different fro.m the Forms user, make sure you fully qualify the call to the procedure.
    Here is a small code sample to demonstrate:
    /* Sample When-Button-Pressed trigger */
    BEGIN
       IF <Condition is true> THEN
          /* Call Database procedure */
          SCHEMA.PROCEDURE_NAME(<any procedure parameters here>);
       END IF;
    END;This is a very basic example, but it should make the concept clear. ;)
    Hope this helps,
    Craig B-)

  • Does it exist a manual for learning to use Oracle Forms?

    What I'm looking for is a manual or tutorial for using Oracle Forms.
    Looking at Oracle Documentation link http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/documentation/10g-forms-091309.html I haven't found an user or developer guide.
    On the web I've found something like this https://sites.google.com/site/craigsoraclestuff/oracle-forms---how-to-s but I'd like to know whether it exists something official by Oracle explaining like creating a form and things like that.
    Thanks in advance!

    If you want Oracle official material for learning any product, you will need to refer to Oracle University:
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/ou_product_category.getFamilyPage?p_family_id=33
    That said, in most cases, whether you have a "Where do I find..." or "How to...." question, your answers are most often one search away. For example, a simple search in this Forum and you will find that your question has been asked and answered countless times:
    https://forums.oracle.com/forums/search.jspa?q=learn+and+forms&objID=f82&dateRange=lastyear&rankBy=10001
    Other search engines will offer similar third party solutions. Try google.com, yahoo.com, ask.com, and countless others.

    FANHow would you like your document to be attached??? What is the nature of your Document??
    If it's the records of another form like an invoice already typed in in your application, you can simply add a field that holds the ID/Number/Reference of your document, and have a button that drills down the data for you.
    If it's a scanned document you can use an image item, and display the document in an that item in your forms.
    Tony
    Alternative for images you can use BLOBs and other types of systemfiles

    Hello experts,

    In most cases you can copy the same entry found in the tnsnames.ora file used by the database.  In the database home, the file can be found in \network\admin.  Open the file and you should find something like this:
    yourAlias =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.100)(PORT = 1521))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
    So in the above, you would need to set the alias (this can be anything you like), the IP address or hostname of the machine where the database is running, the port number used by the db listener, and the service name used by the db.  Most of this will already be set for you if you are copying from the database tnsnames.ora.  So you should be able to just copy and paste.  More information about the tnsnames.ora file can be found in the db documentation:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/network.111/b28317/tnsnames.htm
