Adios..

The best location to find anything related to forms & reports id the help itself.
U wont find many books in market on forms & reports,the reason is ,the help is so good(thanks to Oracle Corp) that we dont need any external material.

  • Using OCX, OLE or DDE with forms

    Hi,
    In the near future, I will have to interface with a program written in Visual Basic. This program will have to send me a command to a form already open. My form will have to capture the parameters and do an action (ex. calling another form).
    If someone had experience with something like this, it will be gentle to send me information about that.
    Thanks

    You can access the Oracle Forms demos from the "Sample Code"
    icon at the top of this page.
    http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/forms/index.html
    (look for the demos for the 6i version).
    There are also some notes on http://metalink.oracle.com about using OCXs.
    Note that those won't work when you move your Forms application to the Web.

  • Import OLE methods in Oracle Forms 6i

    Hi,
    I am experiencing some problems to import OLE methods in Oracle
    Forms 6i.
    In Forms 6i, I select Program->Import OLE Library Interfaces
    menu option. After the Import OLE Library Interfaces dialog box
    appears, I can see the OLE Class that I would like to access
    but none of its methods or events.
    Why the methods and events do not appear?
    Thanks in advance.

    If all you want to do is extract the documents from the Long Raw columns, you can use UTL_FILE to extract the binary content to the file system. You would have to loop through the records in your table to extract each file. Take a look at article Export BLOB Contents Using UTL_FILE that I googled. Granted, this article discusses exporting a BLOB not a Long Raw, but the concept is the same and you should be able to modify the code sample in the article to work with your Long Raw columns.
    Hope this helps,

  • WebUtil and DDE-package

    Hello,
    does anybody know, if there will be something like a CLIENT_DDE-package (related to the old DDE-package of forms) in webutil. The first announcements of Oracle about WebUtil told so, but now there is nothing left about it.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you in advance!

    In forms 9i, which is on web architechture, does DDE work ?
    i.e. if I want to read a .xls located on a network drive, and load that data into a table, is it possible using DDE in forms 9i.
    Thanks

  • OLE2 and DDE package books

    Hi All,
    I need to fully understand OLE2 and DDE package. Pressing F1 provides very limited help for me. Anyone here have or know some links of any reading materials(e-books, documentation)?
    Please share... I'm drowned with my tasks here.
    Thanks!

    DDE is seriously outdated and should only be considered as a last resort. As for OLE2, concern yourself not with learning the OLE2 package, but instead, with understanding OLE automation. The OLE2 package is just a wrapper that makes it possible to manipulate OLE automation servers from PL/SQL. Once you understand OLE, using OLE2 should come easily.
    I learned OLE automation as a Visual Basic developer, before ever working with Oracle, and found it to be fairly straightforward. The easiest and cheapest way to learn OLE automation is by using Microsoft's Visual Basic for Applications IDE -- an Office component. Search this forum using keywords VBA and Tutorial, and you will find information that should hopefully prove helpful.
    As for Mark's assertion that XML provides a simpler solution, there are important differences between the XML and OLE approaches. The XML approach involves simply creating a document, whereas the OLE approach involves instructing the OLE server application to create a document. XML might be perfect, for example, if you wish to create Word documents on a *NIX server.  On the other hand, when your environment permits it, OLE makes it possible to leverage application functionality, like Excel's data analysis functions.

  • Hw to use OLE  and HOST

    Hi ,
    According to my prj requirement.I have to devlop a form in Oracle 10g.A textbox and button is there .After entering a value in text box and on pressing the button.It should execute a perl script and after perlscript is executed it creates a textiles and stores it in its server.After that I want to diplay that text file in the form.In form 6i it was possible to do it through OLE.
    So hw can we achieve there 2 jobs.
    1.To iteract with perl script and execute it.
    2.Finally display the text file in Form.
    Thanks in advance.

    to execute an .exe file or a script we use HOST in forms6i and CLIENT_HOST in forms 9i/10g.
    If you are familiar with OLE2 in forms 6i then just replace it with CLIENT_OLE2 for forms10g.(but first attach wbeutil.pp to your forms10g)
    chek this demo of forms9i webutil:

  • How do I synchronize a table of employees with and employee update form?

    WHAT i AM TRYING TO DO:
    Create a page with two areas. The top will contain a sortable, filterable list of employees. The bottom of the page will contain all of the details on a selected employee.
    WHAT I HAVE DONE:
    1. Created a DEPT_EMPLOYEES view with just some basic department and employee information.
    2. Created Entities and View Objects based on the DEPT_EMPLOYEES view and the EMPLOYEES table.
    3. Created a View Link between the DeptEmpROView (source) and EmployeesUView (destination)
    3. Created a page with a panel splitter an dropped the DeptEmpROView in the top as and ADF Table.
    4. Dropped the EmployeeUView on the bottom part of the pages as and ADF Form.
    WHAT HAPPENS.
    1. When I open the page the list of employees is displayed on top, and the first employee is displayed below.
    2. When I click on another row in the table the form below does not change. I had expected it to.
    3. If I right-click on a row in the table and select "reload" from the options the page is re-drawn and the bottom form is populated with the data that matches the row I clicked on.
    WHAT I WANTED
    When you click on an entry, to have the bottom part of the page refreshed to match the selected entry.
    QUESTIONS:
    1. I thought I had followed all of the steps to prepare a master-detail setup. Do this not work with a table as the master? Or did I miss a step? Or am I using components in a way they were not intended?
    2. When I look at the ViewLink I see in the Destination that the where clause :Bind_EmployeeId = EMPLOYEE_ID will be appended to the query. I would then guess that :Bind_EmployeeId is not set when I click on a row. Is there a way to make that happen?
    3. I notice in the af:table documentation there is an org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.SelectionEvent defined. Can I somehow intercept this and set the bind variable then? If so, how to I tell the form to refresh?
    5. Another clue. When I run the page I get some warnings. One is "Reference selectedRow not found" . Double clicking on that gets me to a line selectedRowKeys="#{bindings.DeptEmployeesROView2.collectionModel.selectedRow}"
    6. Another warning message "Reference makeCurrent not found" gets me to selectionListener="#{bindings.DeptEmployeesROView2.collectionModel.makeCurrent}"
    It sure seems like these last two must have something to do with it.
    Any clues would be appreciated.

    Shay,
    Thanks for pointing me to that tutorial. The synchronization is now working.
    For anyone else that might find this discussion:
    To make it work I selected the af:paneFormLayout that held the EmployeeUView.
    In the properties there is a PartialTriggers property in the Behavior section.
    I highlighted this property and selected the Edit option.
    This allowed me to navigate the component tree and pick the table holding the DeptEmpROView.
    That was it. Now clicking on the table changes the details displayed in the form.
    There are questions, but they are more followon:
    1. The tutorial surrounded the "list table" with a panelCollection. I did not do that. I don't know why or why not to use the panelCollection.
    2. The tutorial made a point of setting the ColumnSelection attribute to single for the List table. I did not find this changed the behavior in any way and was wondering why.
    3. The tutorial also made a point of changing the ContextMenuSelect for the list table to "clickToEdit".
    3a. I did not see how this changed the behavior
    3b. Why "clickToEdit" on a read-only table?

  • Should I erase and replace my former internal hard drive?

    Recently my computer started booting slowly, or just hanging during regular activities. If I shut it down, I couldn't always get it to boot up again. When I could boot to my Recovery HD, I ran Disk Utility and repaired both permission and disk errors, but I still had issues with the machine starting up. At a Genius Bar appointment, I was pretty much told point blank that my hard drive had failed, and as it was a non-Apple HD (I'd upgraded to a 750GB Seagate Momentus purchased from Other World Computing), I would have to talk to the reseller and/or manufacturer.
    I put the original Apple HD back in and still had issues booting up, but another GB appointment found other errors during a Disk Utility sweep (vs. a logo board error). The Genius seemed to recommend Erase and Installing Lion again, even though after the sweep, everything seemed to boot up fine: it got past the Apple logo/spinning wheel, and it booted onto my desktop without hanging as it had done before.
    I have everything current on a different Time Machine drive. The Momentus is now in an external enclosure, and seems to boot fine, but I already submitted a warranty request to Seagate and intend to send it back for a replacement--if I can manage to erase everything on it, first. The original Apple HD doesn't have nearly enough space for me, but I'm making do by trying to get it up-to-date OS wise and with my other software.
    My questions are as follows:
    Is there a way to verify the "failure" that the first Genius saw on my Momentus drive? Perhaps I can just erase and re-install Lion on that, and get my backup from my Time Machine. It's my understanding that I can't actually boot from a Time Machine backup; I can only restore from it during initial setup, similar to an iCloud backup for an iOS device.
    Should I Erase and Install my former Apple HD and try and restore my Time Machine onto that? I wasn't using nearly all of the 750 GB, just about 450. But the original HD was only 500 GB...
    If I do end up sending the Momentus back and replacing it with a new one from Seagate, is Erase and Install via Disk Utility to the best way to remove my data from it?
    Thanks for your time and assistance!

    If you have a time machine back up of your current drive you can do this
    Shut down your computer, install the new drive. While the computer is off plug in the external hard drive that you have your time machine back up on. Hold Option key while the computer turnes on, let go of the option key once you get a grey screen. Shortly after you'll see  a list of bootable drives, select the one that has your time machine back up on it and boot into that drive.
    From there go into disk utility, format your new drive too, osx extended journaled ( I think, double check that, its been awhile since ive had to do this), hit format
    Exit disk utility and then you can use time machine to copy all your exisit data to the new hhd and then your pretty much done.
    There is also a program called Carbon Cloner that will do esentially the same thing however I've never uesed it.

    I have purchased Adobe XI Pro and created a form for entering bowling scores to submit to newspaper for my high school team.  I can not figure out how to get pdf's into my documents folder on my iPad so that I can access the files in bowling alleys where I do not have a Wi-Fi connections.  I need to be able access files without going to acrobat.com.  Help!!!@

    Post the PDF files to a web site. The browse to them in Safari on the iPad.  When you Open the files specify the Open to occur in Adobe Reader.  Then you can have/Save them in your Documents folder on the iPad.   An iPad has limited access to files otherwise.

    I logged in to pay my bill via the app yesterday and my stored form of payment was gone. Since I wasnt at home I didnt have access to my checking account now nor a credit card. This is the first time in 14 years that my online account has had this issue and NO my stored card is not expired. My payment is now going to be late and i was going to get a new phone oin the Edge plan too. Am I going to get charged a late fee and does tgis affect my eligibilityafter 14 years of on time payments! And why did you wipe out my stored payment info?

    Ratwurkz,
    Oh my goodness! That is not what we like to hear. Were you able to log in online not through the My Verizon App? Did it show the card available in there? Is this the same card that you have used for past payments? Let's look a little closer.

  • How does one strip out all Live Cycle data from a PDF and rebuild the form fields in Acrobat?

    Someone in a different department built a bunch of forms in Live Cycle. We now need to make minor edits to these forms but we all have Macs and can't use Live Cycle. Currently our only option to change a date and a name on each form  is to buy a new Windows workstation, buy a copy of Live Cycle and train someone for it.
    I understand the Live Cycle technology and Acrobat technology for forms are somehow different but there must be a way to just strip out all the Live Cycle form programming so that I just have the bare PDF with the text and layout.  Then make the text edits and rebuild the form fields in Acrobat.

    It depends on your PDF. Is the PDF a static XFA or a dynamic XFA?
    You can check to see if the PDF is static/dynamic by clicking File=>Save As, and it should say static or dynamic PDF as file type.
    iText will work with Static XFA forms created in LiveCycle. Dynamic XFA forms are not supported.
    You can also submit XML data to a server side script and parse the XML data using C# system.xml.xmlreader.
    Another tool that may speed the development of the project is:
