Layout unit setting on Oracle Form 6.0.5

Hi,
I have a master form which holds master objects whose size are in inch (eg. 0.24 x 0.24). But when referred as subclass in other form (Oracle form builder environment), their size auto-resize as 240 x 240. Eventhough I tried to setting layout units by inch (menu Format\Layout Options\Layout...), I can not re-configure their size to origion by property setting (issued error FRM-10050: Valid vale must be entered). Anybody help me.
Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't have thought there was anything to stop you using capitals in the key mapping definition. You should be able to define ctrl E to do the same as ctrl e.
The problem is you have to use oracle*terminal to define it on client/server.
You can define functions for alphabetic characters combined with a modifier key such as control. You cannot use alphabetic characters on their own as that would conflict with their use for normal typing.

Converting Unicode to UTF-8 character set through Oracle forms(10g)

Hi,
I am working on oracle forms (10g) where i need to load files containing unicode character set (multilingual characters) to database.
but while loading the file , junk characters are getting inserted into the database tables.
while reading the file through forms , i am using utl_file.fopen_nchar,utl_file.get_line_nchar functions to read the unicode characters ...
the application server , and database server characterset are set to american utf8 characteset.
In fact , when i change the text file characterset to utf8 through an editor(notepad ++,etc) , in that case , data is getting inserted into database properly,(at least working for english characters) , but not with unicode ...
Any guidance in this regard are highly appreciated
Thank you in advance

Setting system variables for Oracle Forms at runtime

Hi,
I've read somewhere that a user can set some Oracle Forms system variables
like SYSTEM.MESSAGE_LEVEL, SYSTEM.DATE_THRESHOLD, SYSTEM.EFFECTIVE_DATE, SYSTEM.SUPPRESS_WORKING
at runtime.
Does anyone know how?
I want to use the same fmx file with various settings, so do not want to
hard code any values for these variables.
TIA,
Sam

Frequently I modidied
:system.message_level := 0 let's say.
For other system variables I cannot help you.

Can I create a dynamic cursor in a program unit on oracle form....

Hello folks,
can I create a dynamic cursor on client side ( in a program unit on the oracle form), is it possible, I Know how to create it on server side using Ref cursor, but on client side i got this message (can't be created on client side or something like that).... please if someone can help

> select count(*) from t_comsis
<p>But when you put that select string into a varchar2 variable, it won't compile. Which makes it hard to create anything "dynamic".
<p>In Forms, you can create and populate a record group dynamically, which is ok as long as your select will not retrieve too many (more than several hundred) rows.
<p>Or, your other option is to use the Forms Exec_SQL dynamic sql package.

JUNIT in Oracle Forms 6i

Hi
We are using Oracle Forms 6i to develop Oracle Applications form extensions.
Wanted to know if we use JUnit in Oracle Forms for testing?
Thanks
Rahul

Hi there
Thanks for the response.
I was thinking of Forms Data Loader to use as an option for unit testing in Oracle Forms since it does capture the events like button submit , but I dont think it does any verification of data like JUnit.
Please let me know what do you think of same.
Thanks

Is there any way to set a calendar event in MS Outlook from Oracle Forms

I need to set and delete events in MS Outlook from an Oracle Form (version 10gR2).
Is there any way to accomplish this?
Thanks

You will need to use OLE on the client, which would further require the use of WebUtil. Here (below) are a couple of MS examples that you would need to convert to pl/sql. There are a variety of Oracle notes which discuss reading and writing to MS Word and Excel. These can likely be used as a starting place to talk to Outlook. There is a WebUtil demo which includes an example of how to write to MS Word. It can be found on the WebUtil home page:

Oracle Forms Server 6i Patch set 11

Hi,
Can any body send me patch set 11 for oracle forms server 6i? I need it to test deploment in XP.
Take care,
Tarek

Unfortunately, patch 11 will not certify XP. Patch 12 might, but it is not promised. There are some issues with XP which are out of the control of the Forms group. It has to do with the 8.0.6 RSFs so we are all waiting for those issues to be resolved.

How to set connection between oracle forms and DB?

I have installed win xp,
oracle database 10g in c drive ,
oracle forms and reports 10g in d drive ,
how do i set the connection between forms and DB ?
i know its an old question but i am very new to this !
thanks in advance.

You didn't mention the versions or whether you are using Developer Suite or Application Server. I guess it really doesn't matter in this case, but please provide complete information in the future.
In order to connect the F/R home to a db you will need to make the appropriate configuration entries in tnsnames.ora found in the F/R home (\NETWORK\ADMIN). The entry you add will be similar to the one found in the tnsnames.ora for the db which is found in a similar directory in the db home. The entry will look something like this:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myMachine)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = myMachine)
)

Setting Oracle form on Portal

Hi All,
I'm developing oracle form on portal that will be used for 38 branches. Every branch has their own data (using the same table) but the same form, the different is only selecting their own data. I have no idea how to implement this other than creating 38 form for each branches. so 1 changes on a form should be replicated to 38 branches. Can i configure 1 form for every branches?
best regards,
~Diko~

Seems to me like implementing VPD in your database would be your best bet. By setting a context, you can ensure that each branch will see only the data relevant or specific to that branch.
Hope this helps

To set access key for push button in oracle forms 11g

Dear Team,
I have following setup:-
We are using oracle database 11gR2
Oracle Forms & reports : 11.1.2
O.S : Windows 7 Professional
We have migrated oracle forms version from 6i to 11g
In oracle forms 6i in save button's property palette we set access key as 'S', so when we press alt+S cursor move to save button, same is not working in oracle forms 11g.
What changes I have to made in new version so that after pressing alt+S cursor will move to save button.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

You will need to define your custom key map in the key mapping file you use. Typically fmrweb.res or fmrpcweb.res. Edit the file in a text editor and take a look to figure out where you need to make the change.This is wrong! The OP is talking about the Access Key (key mnemonic's) of a button. This has nothing to do with the mapping of keys in the frmweb.res, etc., files.
@parapr, You don't mention the Java version installed and you don't mention if your OS is 32-bit or 64-bit. Likely, this issue could be related to an incompatible Java version. We use Access Keys in our 11g R2 application and they work just fine. Our Java version is 1.6.0_31. If you are using Java 1.7.0 - this version is not yet certified with Oracle Forms and I would recommend you downgrade to 1.6.0 (latest version).

How to change image resolution in oracle forms.

Hi Experts,
I am working on oracle forms 10g (Windows7 OS). Can we get the image resolution of an image item in oracle forms? Can we resize the image in terms of resolution?
I have a requirement where user can upload only 1280x720 size images. Either i have to validate the image resolution and give them a message saying 'Only 1280x720 size images are allowed' or simply i have to convert the image to be upload to 1280x720 size and save in the database. If someone could give the solution for the above problem that would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Pramod SR

1. You need to resample.
2. You can automate the process.
1.
Open one of the images.
Go to Image > Image Size
Set the units to Percent (100)
Change the resolution to 300 ppi (not cm!)
Make sure Resample is checked
2. automation
Test the above steps to make sure it works.
Record the steps as an action.
Make a droplet from the action.
Drag the folder with the images to the droplet.
