Multi Language support in Oracle forms

I have a form with 2 text fields
1 text field text can be entered in english
another text field text will depend on the region the user has logged in from.
lets say user has logged in from Japan, in 2nd text field he has to enter text in Japanese , if he is from Russia in Russian , so on.
Can i implement something like this ?

  • Languages Supported in Oracle Forms

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me which languages are supported in Oracle forms ,or with UTF8 characterset i can make forms6i to work for all languages.
    Please correct me ...
    Regards,
    Sandeep

    I don't think this feature is feasible for forms.
    Quoting the documentation from
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28310/manproc002.htm
    Database Resident Connection Pooling (DRCP) provides a connection pool in the database server for typical Web application usage scenarios where the application acquires a database connection, works on it for a relatively short duration, and then releases it.
    Forms keeps a permanent connection to the database, so a connection pool isn't gonna help you in any way.
    cheers

  • Regarding Multi Language Support in Oracle Custom Table

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement that i have to create Custom table to catch the data.
    The custom table should support multi language.
    Ex. PER_OBJECTIVES (seeded table) Suppose i select the language as Arabic then table should able to insert Arabic data. If English is selected English data should insert.
    How i need to design the data base table(similar to PER_OBJECTIVES). What are the mandatory column to support multi language.
    Thanks,
    UMA.

    Uma,
    You will need at least two custom tables. The typical way that Oracle supports MLS/NLS is to have two tables - the first to hold an id or code of the object and the second (table name is typically suffixed with TL) which holds the descriptive translations of the object in the needed languages. A good example to follow would be to look at FNDRESPONSIBILITY and FND_RESPONSIBILITY_TL tables. The first table stores the responsibility short_name or code and the second table stores the actual description of the responsibility in the various languages that are enabled in your instance. The tables are joined using the responsibility id or code. At run time, the appropriate description of the object is retrieved from the TL table based on the users session language. If an entry is not found, then the US translation is substituted. ML Doc 333785.1 describes how all of this is achieved.
    Since your tables are custom tables, you will have to provide your own translations for your objects.

  • Multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms

    multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms
    Instead of creating multiple forms, 1 in each different language, for the same service, is there any workaround?

    Hoan - is your question what are the considerations when creating multiligual catalogs? If so, I can tell you that at other clients I have seen them use a single catalog for one or two languages. For the two langugages, such as Spanish/English, you can create a single catalog with both of them. Once you get to more than two languages, the catalog would get unweildy and is therefore not suggested.

  • How to enable Multi-record select in Oracle Forms

    Hi
    we recently upgraded to R12 -- 12.1.3.
    we have a requirement in which I should let the users select multiple records in a tabular Form (custom form).
    Currently we have a custom form that displays Open sales orders with credit holds. After selecting the record, the user can release the hold on the order by clicking on a button. The requirement is for enabling selection of multiple records and release.
    We have a similary functionality in 'Quick Sales Orders' form. In this form, multiple lines can be selected by pressing 'CTL' and clicking on the records.
    I read about using APP_MULTI for this. But I couldnt figure out how to enable the multiple selection.
    If someone could throw some light on this, it would be greatly helpful

    See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3291758/how-do-i-use-the-app-multi-package-to-support-multi-selection-in-my-oracle-form for steps/sample code.

  • Multi Language Support Setup

    Hi Gurus,
    We have currently upgraded from 11i to R12.1.2 and we have decided to USE MLS & NLS(Multi Language Support) for the very 1st time.We have 4 Languages (American,Spanish,French,Portuguese) so when we query for data in tl tables(apterms_tl,ra_terms_tl,fnd_responsibility_tl) we get four records for a single term_id because we are using 4 languages so we need to keep a language join. What I am doing is
    Select * from ap_terms_tl where agent_id = 5 and language = USERENV('LANG'); which returns only one row with US as the language. Here is a sceneario where I am struck I want to see data in a different language like Spanish or french or Portuguese so how can i achieve that. what i am trying to do is
    ALTER SESSION SET NLS_LANGUAGE = 'BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE'; and then querying for
    Select * from ap_terms_tl where agent_id = 5 and language = USERENV('LANG'); i get data in Portuguese. How can we achieve this from user level perspective. like when we register a Canadian USER and he wants to see American and vice -verse.
    here are the profile options for NLS & MLS
    PROFILE_NAME USER_NAME
    ICX_DATE_FORMAT_MASK ICX: Date format mask
    ICX_DATE_LANGUAGE ICX: Date language
    ICX_LANGUAGE ICX: Language
    ICX_NLS_SORT ICX: NLS Sort
    ICX_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS ICX: Numeric characters
    ICX_TERRITORY ICX: Territory
    I tried setting up these profile Options but didn't work. I am struck Here(like where to set these profile options to make the MLS work).Let me explain the sceneriao
    Here is what we are trying to achieve When a user from Canada login into Oracle Applications and runs a request set or a concurrent Program he has to see the output in Canadian Language Responsibility this should be done dynamically(changing the Language). You have give me a scenario like changing the preferences and setting the session languages can we dot it dynamically like as soon as the user logs in from Canada his session Language should be set to Canada Language.
    I am just waiting for some help from the gurus.
    Help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Hussien,
    I able to see the languages in the tables and when i alter the session and I able to see the data in that particular Language.Even i log-in into oracle applications and click on Preferences and change the session Language Other than US i can see the screens in a different Language.Is there anything we can't do dynamically instead of user signing into Oracle Applications and change his session Language.
    Like when the user logs-in from Canada then he can automatically see his country language.
    Thanks & Regards
    Krishna.

  • Multi Language Support implementation

    <span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black; font-family: Verdana">Hi,<br /><br />Iam currently working in Oracle 9i database configured for multi-language support.

    No I am using VB (ADO, ORAOLEDB) to insert the data. In my VB code I know the data that I have is unicode. I cann see it by doing val(ascb(midb(Comments,2))) * 256 + val(ascb(midb(Comments,1)))
    Also if I use sql plus editor to insert some data using insert into abc value nchr(64037), I can retrieve this data using my VB.
    While inserting I am using a stored procedure command and am specifying the type as 202 (adVarWChar).
    Does the client setting (NLS_LANG) need to be anything specific? I tried setting it to UTF8 as well

  • Multi Language Support in OBI

    Hi all
    I need to implement Multi Language Support in OBI Reporting(For Chinese Clients)
    We are using Oracle Apps as Source with Single Sign-On, so there will be only one logon screen for all, and it will first redirect me to Apps and from there it will connect me to OBI and there wont be any Login Screen for Answers and I cant select the Language option.
    I know the Externalizing Presentation Tables and Loading data through CSV file, but how to set the Language option from Apps Screen.
    Plz dont advice "Implementing Multi Language Support in Normal OBI"
    I need to implement it in Single SignOn
    ThanX in Adv.
    Anand

    Hi Anand,
    You should create an initialization block, in which you check the language of the logged in user. The user who logs into Oracle BI EE can be found in the fnd_user table. Then you should be able to verify the language of the logged in user.
    Good Luck,

  • Disco Admin multi-language support ???

    Hello,
    I am an Oracle University instructor. A student has asked whether the Discoverer Administrator client supports any language besides English. In researching, I found a few docs refering to multi-language support for Disco Viewer, but I have seen no mention of it for Plus, Desktop, or Admin. If you have any info on this, please advise.
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,
    Burt

    Hi Burt
    As far as I know, Discoverer Admin and Desktop are only available in English, just like they only run on Windows.
    However, both Plus and Viewer can be made to run in virtually any language in the world by selecting the appropriate language from the Locale box on the connection dialog.
    I hope this helps
    Best wishes

  • Win 8.1. Core language and multi-language support.

    HI,
    I've used a US developed program with multi-language support for years in Win XT and Win 7. As the program now supports win 8.1. I've upgraded to 8.1. and the new release of the program. However it will not work properly and the reason given is
    that my version of 8.1. has a different core language compared with what  the program uses and this version is not multi-language supported. Now I wonder if there are various versions of  the core language in 8.1. or is the core
    language unique, supported by various language packets for menu's, guiding texts, etc.  Why do I then need a multi-language supported program? Where can I put this question?
    Regards
    Sverre

    I'd probably try them here.

    Is multi-language supported in 3.0.6?

    Furthermore, I heard there are knowns problems with 3.0.7 language support.
    Is it worth waiting 3.0.8 or can we pretty safely use 3.0.7?
    Thanks

    In 3.0.7 we have still problems with multi language support.
    We are switching to 3.0.8 which seems to be solution of almost all our's problems. (Bugs and missing features)
