LOV with 3 record groups

I have two LOV s one in the mainform and one in the subform. If I select one category from the list in the mainform LOV. In the subform LOV has to change it's record group (3 record groups) depending on the category selected in the mainform LOV. Please help. I am pasting the code I wrote. I tried it in the NEW ITEM INSTANCE TRIGGER, NEW BLOCK INSTANCE TRIGGER (datablock for the 2nd LOV with 3 record groups) and in the NEW FORM INSTANCE TRIGGER. Please help. Thank you.

One LOV multiple Record Groups

Hi all
I have 2 text items text A and Text B
on text A i have a list with two items Say 'cricket' and 'football'
I have two record groups 'Cricket' and 'football'
If i select 'cricket' from text A then the LOV for text B should have the 'Cricket' record group attached
and if i select 'football' from text A then the LOV for text B should have the football record Group attached
Please tell me how to do it
Thanks in advance

Hi,
why don't you just create two LOV's and exchange them on the fly?
WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM Trigger on "A" :
IF( :A = 'cricket' )
THEN
set_item_property( 'B', LOV_NAME, 'Cricket' );
ELSIF( :A = 'football' )
THEN
set_item_property( 'B', LOV_NAME, 'Football' );
ELSE
set_item_property( 'B', LOV_NAME, NULL );
END IF;
Another possibility would be to create a KEY-LISTVAL Trigger on "B" use "show_lov" to switch between both LOV's.

Strange Problem in dynamically list population with record group

Hello Room,
I am dynamically populating a single list with 2 record groups. I am having a strange problem. All the code are written in 2 seperate buttons. The code of every button is given below.
Button 1 code:-
DECLARE
rg_reports RECORDGROUP;
rg_name VARCHAR2(40) := 'REPORTS';
vTemp NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- Pls make sure Group doesn't already exist
rg_reports := FIND_GROUP(rg_name);
-- If it doesn't exist then create it and add ur query to it
IF Id_Null (rg_reports) THEN
rg_reports:=CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name , 'SELECT companyname,to_char(co) from companymaster order by companyname');
end if;
--Populate the Record Group
vTemp:=POPULATE_GROUP(rg_reports);
POPULATE_LIST('REPORTS.EXAMPLELIST', rg_name);
Delete_Group( rg_reports );
END;
Button 2 Code:-
DECLARE
rg_reports RECORDGROUP;
rg_name VARCHAR2(40) := 'REPORTS';
vTemp NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- Pls make sure Group doesn't already exist
rg_reports := FIND_GROUP(rg_name);
-- If it doesn't exist then create it and add ur query to it
IF Id_Null (rg_reports) THEN
rg_reports:=CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name , 'SELECT accountname,to_char(co) from accountmaster order by accountname');
end if;
--Populate the Record Group
vTemp:=POPULATE_GROUP(rg_reports);
POPULATE_LIST('REPORTS.EXAMPLELIST', rg_name);
Delete_Group( rg_reports );
END;
The code is same here only the sql is different in these 2 buttons. Now the problem point.
when i press button 1, I get the list populated ok. when i try to click on the list item and keep the button pressed the list gets scrolled properly.
when i press button 2 after that i get account names well populated in the same list item as well, but this time, when i keep the button pressed the list does not scroll below as in button 1. It does not even allow to select different item from the list of button 2 code.
I tried to clear cache, cookies, exit browser everything and try to run the button 2 first, but still the problem in button 2 code.
Following are my system details.
windows 7 professional edition.
Oracle database 11g on windows 7
Oracle forms 10g patchset 10.1.2.0.2 on windows 7
Browser Netscape Navigator with oracle jinitiator 1.3.1.22
But this form is run by a client side html file where oracle forms 10g is not installed on windows xp. html file is just referring server url to run the module. The file is run on Netscape navigator browser with oracle jinitiator 1.3.1.22
My question is that is this a bug ? if button 1 gets the list item scrolled, why is the problem with button 2 even though i press it first. Here I am deleting the record group also. after the code is over. Initially I thought this may be the character length problem so I took the maximum character length for that list item as given by the 2 columns in database.
Why is the list scrolling not happening in button 2 but in button 1 with same codes on both ?
Anybody please help me.

The problem is the second query. I would guess that the TO_CHAR(co) is not unique for each account, but is the same for the accounts. And as the second item in the select-list is the listitems values, all your listitem-entries have the same value. therefore, of you select any entry, the list will always go the the first entry again.
Adjust your query.

Dropdown from record group?

I am new to oracle, i need to have dropdown value list from a database, i know LOV, but it does not support dropdown so i need some way from LOV or from Record group.
Please if anybody guide me that how can i make a dropdown linst using LOV or Record Group.
I am using 10g forms.
Kind Regards
Naveed

You can populate list item (if you mean list item) using record group.
Example: you can use create_group_from_query and populate_group built-ins to get the values from database into record group.
Then you can use populate_list to populate list item.
Also, have a look at Oracle Forms help for more information and examples on built-ins.

Creation of Record Group and LOV at run time

Hello All,
I have been stuck by this...I have two text items on which LOVs have been placed.Selection of one depends on selection of other.I can dynamically create a record group but how to create a LOV dynamically to populate it with the dynamic record group been created.
For more visualization consider that filtering of data takes place in one lOV based on the other LOV been provided.
Revert ASAP...
Thanks and Regards,
Kapil Uppal

I don't think you can create a LOV dynamically, but you can repopulate a pre-existing one, which should allow you to achieve the same goal.

(urgent) Dynamic record groups and LOV

I have to create a record group and then add 2 rows to it manually.Following is the code.There are no values displayed in the lov.Please help.
PROCEDURE create_record_group IS
BEGIN
DECLARE
rg varchar2(40) := 'test_fips';
rg_id RECORDGROUP;
lov_id Lov;
err NUMBER;
gc_id1 GROUPCOLUMN;
gc_id2 GROUPCOLUMN;
counter number;
BEGIN
rg_id := FIND_GROUP(rg);
lov_id := FIND_LOV('LOV_FIPS');
IF NOT ID_NULL(rg_id) THEN
DELETE_GROUP(rg_id);
END IF;
IF ID_NULL(rg_id) THEN
rg_id := CREATE_GROUP(rg);
gc_id1 := add_group_column (rg_id,'col1',number_column);
gc_id2 := add_group_column(rg_id,'col2',char_column,40);
END IF;
/* adding static content to LOV */
ADD_GROUP_ROW( rg_id,1);
SET_GROUP_NUMBER_CELL(gc_id1,1,997);
SET_GROUP_CHAR_CELL(gc_id2,1,'MLAB');
counter := get_group_row_count(rg_id);
/* adding dynamic content */
FOR rec in (SELECT FIPS_CD COL1, LOCNAME COL2 FROM FIPS) LOOP
counter := counter +1 ;
ADD_GROUP_ROW( rg_id, counter);
SET_GROUP_NUMBER_CELL(gc_id1,counter,rec.col1);
SET_GROUP_CHAR_CELL(gc_id2,counter,rec.col2);
END LOOP;
SET_LOV_PROPERTY('LOV_FIPS',GROUP_NAME, rg);
END;
END;

I tried creating the group the way you suggested but it does not seem to work because of 'UNION' in the query.It says unable to create rcord group.Did you anytime use the 'UNION' option while creating record group.
While creating record group at design time also you cannot use UNION with dual.
This how I modified :
PROCEDURE create_record_group IS
BEGIN
DECLARE
V_RG_ID RECORDGROUP;
RG_NAME VARCHAR2(20) := 'TEST_FIPS';
V_ERRCODE NUMBER;
BEGIN
V_RG_ID := FIND_GROUP('TEST_FIPS');
IF ID_NULL(V_RG_ID) THEN
V_RG_ID := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY('TEST_FIPS', 'SELECT FIPS_CD, LOCNAME FROM FIPS
UNION SELECT 997,'MLAB' FROM DUAL');
END IF;
V_ERRCODE := POPULATE_GROUP(V_RG_ID);
MESSAGE('CREATED '|| V_ERRCODE);
SET_LOV_PROPERTY('LOV_FIPS',GROUP_NAME, RG_NAME);
END;
END;
Notice here 'MLAB' is char and I get compilation error if I use these quotes with MLAB.But is I remove the quotes the it compiles.
Thanks

Dynamically populate a record group on the fly uisng LOV

Hi,
I want to create dynamically populate a record group on the fly uisng LOV.
1. This is how the RG_BANKNAME Record Group object look like
Object : Record Group
Name : RG_BANKNAME
Record Group Query : SELECT NAME, SHORT_NAME FROM C_BANKS
2. I create the Push Button and when user click it will popup the LOV.
DECLARE
     rg_id RecordGroup;
     errcode NUMBER;
     status BOOLEAN;
BEGIN
     rg_id := Find_Group('RG_BANKNAME');
     IF Id_Null(rg_id) THEN
          Message('No such group: ',ACKNOWLEDGE);
          RAISE Form_Trigger_Failure;
     ELSE
          errcode :=POPULATE_GROUP(rg_id);
          SET_LOV_PROPERTY('LV_NAME', TITLE, 'My Own LOV');
          SET_LOV_PROPERTY('LV_NAME', GROUP_NAME, rg_id);
          SET_LOV_COLUMN_PROPERTY('LV_NAME', 1 ,Title, 'NAME');
          SET_LOV_COLUMN_PROPERTY('LV_NAME', 1 ,Width, 150);
          SET_LOV_COLUMN_PROPERTY('LV_NAME', 2 ,Title, 'SHORT NAME');
          SET_LOV_COLUMN_PROPERTY('LV_NAME', 2 ,Width, 100);
          status := Show_LOV('LV_NAME',10,20);
          IF NOT status THEN
               Message('You have not selected a value.');
               Bell;
          END IF;
     END IF;
END;
My question is do I need to create the LOV Object name call 'LV_NAME'? since I don't have this
create on my design times, because I thought it can be done dynamically on the fly.
The problem is compliant that the Lov Id is not valid.
Thanks
David

Hello,
You request is not clear. Do you need to display the LOV or not ? In other words, what is the goal of your record group ?

Hi,
As I know info record w/o material number cannot be applied to a material even if the material groups (material group of the info record and material group of the material) are the same.
Info record without material number can be applied only to text items in your purchase order (ourchasing documents).

Now if I click the LOV can I show only those records currently I have retreived.
I have following trigger on button pressed.

I think that you have to use Create_Group_From_Query() instead of Create_Group():
rg_id := Create_Group_From_Query(rg_name);

Static record group and lov problem

hi all,
1)I created a form module
2)created a basic datablock based on empno and ename from emp table.
3) created a static record group ,where i specified the column name as col1,provided the values as 1 ,2,3,4,5 etc
4) created an LOV and assigned the above record group to the LOV
5) then assigned the lov to the emp.empno item in the datablock emp....
when i run the form .....i get the list of values message on the console (bottom end of the window) ....
but I am not able to see the LOV when i press the cntrl L or see it from the edit menu command ?
what must be the problem ?

Dear,
May be you don't set LOV's "Column Mapping Properties". After setting the properties correctly you will be able to display LOV.
Thanks.

Record groups and LOV

HI
I have a question regarding LOV's.
I have 2 fields dept_code which is a checkbox and field2 which is an LOV displaying the employee names based on the dept_code selected.
My record group has a query like this -
SELECT empname FROM emp WHERE dept_code IN(:parameter.P_dept_code). p_dept_code is char.
If the user enters multiple department codes then my p_dept_code should contain commas and single quotes for each department like this ('m10','m20')
In which trigger do I do this coding and how do I do it?
Thanks.

Hi
Thanks for your response.
The key-listval does'nt seem to firing.
When I run the form the lov comes up but displays the value 2 which is from the default record group(select 1 "dno", 2 "ename" from dual).
This is the code in my key-listval -
DECLARE
rg_name VARCHAR2(40) := 'name_rg';
rg_id RecordGroup;
gc_id GroupColumn;
errcode NUMBER;
BEGIN
rg_id := Find_Group(rg_name);

gc_id := Add_Group_Column(rg_id, 'dno',

Help with record selection/grouping

I am trying to create a report as follows, but am running into some problems with my selection/grouping:
Data Structure (each line is a separate record; each employee has 2 records)
Employee             TaskID      TaskStatus           Marker         Date Modified
1                               A                CLOSED             x
1                               B                OPEN                  N/A
2                               A                CLOSED              y
2                               B                OPEN                 N/A
3                               A                CLOSED             x
3                               B                CLOSED            N/A

Report Requirements
I want a report that displays only employee number and the date that Task B was completed for all employees, and I want these records grouped based on Task B's Task Status (no problem. I did this).
However, I want to sub-group these Task B records (within Task Status) by the Marker field for Task A records! (I can't figure this out? If I only pull in Task B records, how can I compare what the associated employee has as a marker for their Task A record?)
Again, I only want to display data from the employee's Task B record, while subgrouping on a field value from the empoyee's Task A record. The report would be structured as follows:
Task B (OPEN), with Task A - Marker (x)
                 {Date Modified}
Task B (OPEN), with Task A - Marker (y)
                 {Date Modified}
Task B (CLOSED), with Task A - Marker (x)
                {Date Modified}
Task B (CLOSED), with Task A - Marker (y)
                  {Date Modified}
Thanks.
Gary

The easiest way would be to use an SQL Command that returns both the Task A and Task B data on one record. Something like (MS SQL):
select b.employee, b.taskid as task_b, b.task_status_b, b.marker as marker_b, b.date_modified as date_modified_b,
    a.taskid as task_a, a.task_status_a, a.marker as marker_a, a.date_modified as date_modified_a
from table a, table b
where a.employee = b.employee
and a.taskid = 'A'
and b.taskid = 'B'

Populating list item with a record group

I'm trying to populate a list item (TList) with a Record group with a simple query: SELECT FRM_NAME FROM FORM
In the forms WHEN_VALIDATE_NEW_FORM trigger, I use POPULATE_LIST('FORM_LIST', 'RG_FORM_LIST');
Am I missing something? I get the error FRM-41334: Invalid record group for list population.

thanks, i've tried that, but still nothing. I must be doing something simple, but very wrong. I tried with oracle's default scott/tiger schema, created a simple form with a record group with 2 columns, and populating a manually made poplist (populate_list('LIST4', 'RG1'); Still get errors:
FRM-30191: No list items defined for required poplist.
List LIST4
Item: LIST4
Block: EMP
Form: MODULE5
FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output.
