Oracle Discoverer 4i called from Form 6

I call discoverer 4l from Form 6 in Web. It's possible cript password when write URL?

Are you saying you are having issues with a database link between 8i and 11g (pl post exact versions to 4 digits) ? If so, it should be expected as database links between these two versions are not supported. Is there a reason you cannot upgrade the portal database to at least 10gR2 ?

4.5 to 6i migration or report calling from forms in XE???

Hi Friends,
I really appreciate your helping tendency. Let me explain the whole scenario.
My application basically consists of
Forms [32 Bit] Version 5.0.6.8.0 (Production)
Report Builder 3.0.5.8.0
Oracle Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
Now we migrated our database into Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production. After the migration all the existing forms and report individually were running without any problem. But there was a huge problem. Whenever I tried to call any report from any form the report engine appeared and then stopped responding. So report calling from forms was not possible after the database migration. I was suggested by someone from OTN forum to migrate my forms and reports into 6i. I have started doing the migration using ifcmp60. WIth forms 6i, reports can be called from forms. But I am facing problem in every other steps. There are many things are not working after the migration though the migration log shows no error. For example, COMMIT_FORM, EXECUTE_QUERY (for detail table), LOV, TOOL.GETVAR lots of things are not working.
My application has 200 forms and 250 reports.
Please help and advise on:
How to call reports from form when the database is XE Or
How to overcome the stated migration problem
Rgds,
Luther

Dear Mark:
I have two choices. I can either migrate to 6i or I can go with the existing 4.5. If I go with 4.5 ......the reports are not being called from forms. This problem is happening after I changed the database from 9i to XE. Please advise what to do so that I can keep my forms in 4.5, database in XE and can call reports from forms.

Reports are not called from form in browser plz help

Hi,
I have installed 9iAS+8.1.7 database on the same machine with NT4 server.My system's forms(.fmx) are running well but my reports are not running from my main form.i call reports from the
from as,
Run_Product(reports,'..\iReports\xglrxx12.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null);
Actually want to know the report's setting when calling from the from in a browser(environment variables,virtual paths etc.).
My database is installed in drive E:\8idb_home\ and 9iAS is on
G:\9iAS_home\.My systems .fmx & .rep files are in "iforms" and "ireports" folder respectively.
Plz help!
Many thanks!

Hi,
First of all thanks to Vincent Botteman for solving the prob.
Yes when i changed my call of run_product by excluding the path i have specified when calling from form it then makes a result.
Also specified the entry of your reports .rep files by giving path in reports60_path registery variable as,
Run regedit-->Hkey_Local_Machine-->Software-->Oracle here give the full path of your .rep files as an first entry in reports60_path variable.And finally not mention the path when calling reports from form as,
Run_Product(reports,'xglrxx13.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null);<--- Correct way.
Run_Product(reports,'..\iReports\xglrxx13.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null);<--- Wrong way.
Regards!

Here's my question, I am able to execute a stored procedure but hasn't figured
out a way to execute a function which defined in a package. The syntax goes
like this: sql execute procedure <PackageName>.<FunctionName> ( input
input_parm, output output_parm). If anyone EVER successfully execute a

You'll need to provide a column alias for the function call:

Calling discoverer 3.1 from forms

I want to invoke a .dis file from Forms 6i.
I have discoverer 3.1

Are we talking web or C/S ?
In C/S discoverer has a command line interface that you can use to pass parameters such as workbook name and call it with host from Forms.
On the Web you can call the workbook with URL and parameters by using web.show_document in forms.

ON-LOGON does not fire in Form B, called from Form A

We have a situation like this. We are using Forms (Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)).
We migrated this application to Forms 11.2.0.1.0. Problem is that the ON-LOGON trigger does not fire in the 2nd level forms. Our application work like this.
(a.) User double-clicks URL icon.
(b.) Form A is opened without asking for un/pwd. We put a NULL; in the ON-LOGON of A.fmb.
(c.) This is the main form of the application. This has a canvas with 6 buttons. Each button will launch it's own separate application with it's own menu.
(d.) Now user presses button in A. This launches Form B. We use
Run_Product(FORMS, 'B', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL); (e.) Now, in Form B, in the ON-LOGON trigger we have put code to show the logon screen and login to the DB.
Problem is, this works in 10g Forms. But we had to replace the RUN_PRODUCT with a CALL_FORM after migrating to 11g since RUN_PRODUCT is not supported in 11g.
Problem is that when you use CALL_FORM to call Form B, the ON-LOGON of the Form B does not fire. We tried OPEN_FORM and NEW_FORM with different parameters, but the behavior is the same. i.e. ON-LOGON does not fire.
What is the solution or workaround for this please.

Michael Ferrante (Oracle) wrote:
If you need to open another form you should use CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, or NEW_FORM. In these cases, ON-LOGON will not automatically fire because the connect info is passed from the calling form. If you need to login from the called form then you need to need to programatically cause that to occur. Refer to the LOGON and LOGON_SCREEN built-ins in the Builder help for more info. You can fire these from almost any trigger you like, for example in a WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger or where ever is appropriate for you application.Michael, we tried using the CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM & NEW_FORM.
Also, there is NO connection to the DB, when B is called from A since we don't login to the DB in A (ON-LOGON has NULL;).
So, if there is no DB connection when B is called, shouldn't the ON-LOGON in B fire?
We tried firing the LOGON_SCREEN and LOGON in the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE. But, for some reason, the we don't get the menu (we get a menu not found error). We tried correcting the paths and other things but still no solution.

Report Called from FORMS having Printing Problem

Hi all
Guys i have a report problem in reports 6i.
I am calling a report from my FORM 6i directly to printer (a dot matrix printer).
I have set
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DesType',TEXT_PARAMETER,'printer');
The report is actually a confirmation report and i have given its layout height equal to 3.7 . But when i send it to printer it ejects the paper equal to 11 (equal to height of a portarait report).
How can manage this ejection from Form or Report Side.
NOTE : This problem occurs even if print the report from report preview(means not printed directlty from FORM).
Kindly help me with this if any.
I need it urgent.
Thanx.

Hello All
The furthur detail to my previous problem is given as follows:
I am getting problem
with the Oracle reports. I have a dot matrix printer (Epson LQ-300, which is a
tractor feed printer). While printing a report which is always not more than half a
page, the printer does not stop after printing the report(the half page). It stops at
the end of the page. I mean that half the page is printed and the rest half is blank.
I want that the printer should print only at half a page. On the blank half it should
print another copy of same report.

Qaiser Qayyum Malik.

Can report created with BIP be called from forms?

Hello.
We have many forms.
And now we ned complex reports. With BIP we can create them.
But is there a way to call them from forms, like reports created with Report builder?
Can we transfer parameters from forms to BIP reports, so data can be queried on that form parameters?
Thanks.

Hi,
yes, there are several ways you can do this.
DejanH, we discussed at the BI Publisher Forum, here just for the others.
The document you're looking for is here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/docs/Forms_BIP_v21.pdf
or here
http://www.oracle.com/global/de/community/forms/documents/Forms_BIP_v21.pdf
Jan,
it's a new version of the mentioned paper at the OTN-Forms-Side and the old one was removed.
The document describes the way, how to integrate BI Publisher via Web Services into Forms. There are other ways available like
- using HTTP calls via show_document
- using the JavaAPI of BI Publisher and import the needed classes to Forms
Regards
Rainer

Is it possible to call diff report queries when called from form

hello all
I want to know if it is possible to call different report queries when called from oracle 9i form .
i tried to use he
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(REPORT_QUERY = 'q_diff' )
option and actualy called the report name
but it dint seem to work !!!
also is it possible to chng the title of the browser at runtime

Sandeep,
this property is used with passing Record Groups as data parameters from Forms.
Passing the query name indicates that the values contained in the record group substitutes the result of the named query. This may work in client/server Reports, but it definitively doesn't work on teh Web because you can't pass a Record Group as a data parameter in this environment.
Te problem with changing a Reports query is that you must meet the same number of columns and column types as they exist in the Report. I didn't spend much time with XML based runtime customization in Reports. I think that you can change the Reports query through this feature. In Forms you would create the XML file using text_io and the merge it with an existing Reports. I never did this before. So it could be that all I am saying does not work in the end. Before following this idea, you may better ask in teh Reports forum on OTN if it is possible to use the runtime customization feature to modify the Reports query.

DB connection in JavaBean called from Forms 6i

Hi, after going through a lot of documentation, I still can't find a proper solution for connection issues to the database within a javabean called from Oracle Forms 6i patch 13.
I developed a javabean which will download (export) a BLOB field from the database to the local file system. Everything works fine and the file gets downloaded to client machine. My only concern is that, to access the data within the bean, I need to connect to the database again from the java code(I believe there is no way to keep the connection between the forms session and the bean). For this I use the jdbc oracle thin driver. This works fine if the database is visible over the internet (for the client to see it), but the only machine I would like to expose is the application server (which is also my web server) running Apache / Jserv with forms listener servlet. The database is visible from the app server.
If my client machine is X and my app server is Y and my database server is Z, can anyone give me an answer how to connect from X to Z with Z only visible to Y and Y visible to X (www).
I assume using servlet code which executes on Y might be an option, but how do I implement a servlet to be executed from forms?
This is the only bottleneck I have before rolling out my system to the client, I will appreciate it if anyone can assist me regarding the above.
Best Regards,
Jacques Rossouw

There is no way to see the Forms Conenction from within the JavaBean as you point out.
There are a couple of approaches to this problem both of which I've used:
1) Use Java Code on the App server to read the blob from the database and dump it to a file in a location visible as a virtual directory on the app server (you can use the Java Importer to hook this into Forms).
Then in your bean have something like this:
URL src = new URL(sourceURL);
if (src != null)
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(src.openStream());
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(localFile,false);
etc.
2) You can read the Blob in PL/SQL using DBMS_LOB and base64 encode it into a string. then send the string to the bean using Set_custom_property (probably in chunks!) and re-assemble and de-code in client side java.

Connection Dialog Box Pops Up When a Report is Called From Forms

Hi ,
Some times when calling a report from forms using RUN_PRODUCT, a connection dialog box is popped up. We are using forms6i (Version 6.0.8.8.0) client-server.This behavior occurred on a specific pc while many other pc work fine.
I found a relevant document in metalink (docid:156232.1 https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:4126992859688402901::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,156232.1,1,1,1,helvetica ) saying that the database user must have the ALTER_SESSION privilege.In out case user has that privilege through CONNECT role.
Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance
