Open PDF/Word file

Env - Forms 10g, Linux OS
Is it possible to open PDF/word files which user selects (there is dailog box to search and open file) through Oracle forms 10g
Regards
Stan

Do you want to view the PDF/Word file inside Oracle Forms? If so then you would need a Pluggable java component. Have a look at [ http://mark-oradev.blogspot.com/2009/01/enhanced-html-browser-on-website-of.html|http://mark-oradev.blogspot.com/2009/01/enhanced-html-browser-on-website-of.html ] for an example.
Or do you want to show the PDF/Word inside i.e. Adobe acrobat or microsoft then you could use webutil.
If you want to use web.show_document you have to put an url inside the call. A file url like e:\forum\test1.pdf is at your client side and will not be known by your forms since the forms are running on the application server. If the application server knows a e:\forum\test1.pdf it might work.

    how do I open a Word file which was exported from a PDF file?

    Hi alansandy,
    You can find your converted Word file stored in your Acrobat.com account at https://cloud.acrobat.com. You can download your file from your account by selecting it and clicking the Download icon. Then, you can open it right up in Word!

  • Not opening pdf, word and spreadshee​t file

    I'm not able to open pdf, word or spreadsheet file that are saved on my media card. It's say "unable to open file..."
    I'm using a bb curve 8900, what apps can I download to solve this?

    I have Microsoft Office 2008. I am able to open them and create new files. It just seems to have trouble when opening the links from my school's website.
    When I click the link it pulls up another window that has this message: "There has been a problem with the page you are accessing. You may return to what you were doing by clicking the back button. If the problem persists, please contact the helpdesk." When I download the link it pulls up the same window.
    When saving the link/file? to my desktop and then trying to open a pdf with adobe, this message appears: "Adobe Reader could not open 'Skin Lecture Spring 2011.pdf.html' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    For a powerpoint, the first message is:“Acid Base foundations.ppt.html” is a web application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?" So, I select open, and the second message is "PowerPoint cannot read Acid Base foundations.ppt.html."
    For a document, the message is the same as the powerpoint's: “HERBALS AND DRUG INTERACTIONS.doc.html” is a web application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?" So, I select open, but for Word it opens a document that has the same exact message box that opens when I select the link from the website.
    I hope this is more helpful. Thank you!

  • Opening MS WORD files in Appleworks

    I never bought MS Word during the 30 day trial. Now it looks like I'll be getting a bunch of Word documents sent to me in the near future.
    I read somewhere here that Word files can be opened in Appleworks. I've had no success with it so far. Could someone please tell me how to do that?
    Or, If I do have to buy MS Word For Mac, is there a cheap way to do it? Like an old version or something other that the $250+ they're asking for the new one?
    Imac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   1.25 GHz 512GB RAM 80GB HD with 120 GB XTNL.

    You certainly don't need to buy Office. There are several options available.
    TextEdit that is included with OS X can open most Word files.
    One of the free Office clones - NeoOffice or Open Office for any Office file. Also, AbiWord, but only for Word files.
    icWord from Panergy Software - not free but the trial is fully functional. icWord also has the ability to save as AppleWorks. There is also icExcel. These are approximately $20 (US) each or $30 for both.
    Pages, part of iWork, can open Word files.

  • How to open damaged word file?

    I m trying to open MS Word Document file, MS word files are showing error message like word 2003 
    doesn't open file, I have important document file got corrupted, so How to open damaged word file? 
    If you have any answer please help assist me.

    When a Word document file is corrupted, then you can try several methods to recover it:
    1. First of all, you can try the recovery function integrated with Microsoft Word, as follows:
    1) On the File menu, click Open.
    2) In the Look in list, click the drive, folder, or Internet location that contains the file that you want to open.
    3) In the folder list, locate and open the folder that contains the file.
    4) Select the file that you want to recover.
    5) Click the arrow next to the Open button, and then click Open and Repair.
    You may find more information about this at:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/recover-the-text-from-a-damaged-document-HP005189610.aspx (for Word 2003)
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/893672/en-us (for Word 2007/2010/2013)
    2. If 1 does not work, then you may try third-party tools such as DataNumen Word Repair at
    http://www.datanumen.com/word-repair/
    It provides a free demo version so that you can try to see if the data you want can be recovered or not.
    Good luck!

    You want to just use Dropbox until the dust settles.  To use it from iWork for iOS (assuming you have the Dropbox app installed on your device), open the document in Keynote (for example), tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), choose Open in Another App, choose Keynote as your format, then choose Open in Dropbox and you will get an option to save it to your Dropbox account.  To open it from Dropbox in iWork for iOS, open the document in the Dropbox app, tap the share icon, tap Open in Keynote (for example).  It's a bit clunky, but works. 

  • Firefox crashes when opening PDF, Word and other files

    Recently, Firefox stopped being able to open PDF files within the Firefox program. It crashes whether one tries to have it open the file or just download it. The same occurs when trying to open a Word doc. It does this in safe mode too. Since I am studying for a college degree and use these features a lot, I've had to stop using Firefox. This is a problem, because my university uses Firefox for its classes and other programs aren't as compatible. I've tried EVERYTHING suggested on line, both in Firefox help pages and in user pages. Nothing works.

    Fix the [http://browser.iyogi.com/firefox/firefox-not-opening-pdf.html '''PDF not opening in Mozilla Firefox'''] issue by reinstalling Adobe Reader. You need to uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it to get the issue fixed. It is important to uninstall all versions of Adobe Reader that you may have in your system. Also, take care of installing the latest Adobe Reader for the browser.

  • "The File Format is Invalid" whenever I try to open a Word File

    Pages 3.0.2 consistently returns the 'format invalid' error when I try to open .doc files. These are mostly of kind Microsoft Word 97-2004. I get the same result whether I try to open the file from within Pages or drag the file to the dock icon (running or not) or even if I change the file properties to open it with pages. Opening a .doc file in TextEdit yields only gibberish, so that avenue is not open either.
    This is a new MacBook Air I'm setting up for my wife who wanted something lighter for the road, which required over a Gigabyte of upgrades right out of the box. At least Pages will run, unlike Word for Mac 2008, which after an upgrade aimed to fix an issue where Word quits 'unexpectedly' when one opens or uses the program still fails to start up. This means that I have no chance to re-save files until my wife returns with her old iBook G4 with a functioning copy of Word 2004.
    Short of installing OpenOffice* does anyone have any suggestions for 'unlocking the functionality' of Pages?
    *Next on my list, though I've used it and find it emulates Word all too well in sluggishness.
    Thanks.
