Oracle Query in forms

select bleed_end_time
from units@qlab
where unit_id = 'W039712003127'
BLEED_END_TIME
1/17/2012 8:10:00 AM
from the system time I have to get the elapsed time (system time - bleed_end_time)
As the unit_id and product_code is entered, we find the bleed_end_time for the unit.
Considering the system time, get the elapsed time. If elapsed time less than 30 minutes from bleed_end_time, the time_from_collection has to display in red, 30 minutes to 7:59 will display in green, time greater than 8 hours will display in red. Need help in getting these conditions.
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('TIME_FROM_COLLECTION',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'VA_RED');
I need help in the if conditions.

Google (or really, any Internet Search tool) is your friend. What you really need is to figure out how to perform date and time calculations. A quick Google search gave me numerous hits. Here are a few:
Date/Time Arithmetic with Oracle
Oracle / PLSQL Date Functions
Operating on Oracle Dates and Date Functions
If these don't help, do an Internet search on "oracle date functions and calculations" for more options.

How to Implement KFF Range (Low and High) in query find form in oracle apps

Hi,
Please provide some sample script for using KFF range LOV (Low and High) in one of the query find form in Oracle apps R12.
I need to customize one of the standard form and add this range functionality for that search form.
Thanks,

Yuvaraaj,
Your request is unique to the Oracle Enterprise Business Suite (EBS). Please post your question in the General EBS Discussion forum. If you have a general Forms question, by all means, ask it here! ;-)

Query on Forms Personalization of Oracle Assignment Form

Hi All,
My customer has a requirement of personalization on the Assignment form. They would like to show the People group flex field segments but make them non-editable.
Since the People Group is a KFF, I am unable to figure out how to personalize this. If any of you has done this with any KFF, could you please let me know the steps to follow?
Thank you.
Regards,
Prathima.

We are migrating Oracle forms 4.5 to oracle 10g. We have following apporaches.
     1. Oracle 4.5-->6i-->10g, In this what are benefits of migrating into intermediate version.Oracle's migration path is 4.5, 6i, 10g it is more logical to migrate using this path and it is recommended by Oracle, the obsolete built-ins would be pointed out at compilation and fixes would be more automated and simple since Forms 6i was designed to accept migration from 4.5 and the internal design of the forms will be much more adaptable to later releases.
     2. if we migrating into intermediate version 6i, do we need to fix all the errors before moving to 6i.It would be better and easier to fix things in Forms 6i rather than 10g, you can leave them and than you'll have to fix them under 10g.
     3. if no, do we lose any functionlity while migrating to 10g.Functionality built on obsolete built-ins and commands will be lost, you are more likely to face bugs.
     4. Does Oracle support direct migration to 10g?Oracle's official migration path is 4.5 to 6i to 10g
     5. if we open oracle 4.5 form in 10g form builder, do we lose any functionality? do we need to lot manual replacement?It all depends on your application size and features. I suggest you migrate to Forms 6i first and than to 10g although you can do it directly to 10g since Forms 6i is no longer supported.
I personally rather follow the recommended path and use Oracle support in 10g migration.
For more Forms migration information check out [Forms Upgrade Center|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html] .

LOV & Query in Forms 10g not working

Hi All,
I have a strange problem with custom forms that i am developing using Dev Suite 10g (10.1.2) for Oracle AS 10g (10.1.2.0.2).
When i test the form in DevSuite the LOVs in the form are working properly, but after i deploy the form on the server and use the default config the LOVs stop showing up.
The same happens with Execute Query. There is no error message displayed either.
Since the jiniitator was downloaded from the same server, so that cannot be the problem.
The version of java used is also the same, 1.4.2.
I have no idea why the forms are behaving like this on the server. Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Arun

Is there any difference in oracle database and forms database

i want to know is there any difference in oracle database and forms 6i database
,if i import some file through oracle database then same data will exist in forms database or not
thanks

Oracle Forms is a Rapid Application Development (RAD) tool not a database. With Forms, you connect to an Oracle database to query and display data from the database as well as insert new or update existing data. Consequently, if exists in the database - you should be able to display it in a Form.

From Clause query with form variables

forms 9.0.4 rdbms 9.2
Is it possible to create a From Clause query with form variables generated from another block (but in the same form)? I am not having any success.
I searched Metalink. It appears that according to DOC ID # 69884.1, in Forms 6i, this is not possible. Metalink suggest in DOC ID 104771.1 implementating a dynamic From Clause, but when I duplicate the example on my system, I receive an Oracle error. Further investigation from the web form (DISPLAY ERROR) indicates that the system does not see the dynamic value.
Has anyone else run into this error? Has this been fixed in forms 9.0.4 and I am just missing something? Does a dynamic from clause query work? Can anyone point me to an example or post an example or offer any advise.
thanks in advance

As far as I know it is not possible to use block items in a from clause query in forms 9.0.4. Here is my solution for a From-Clause-Query via the 'Query-Data-Source-Name-Property':
To use the values of the block items in my from clause query I implemented a database package with getter and setter routines for the block item values I needed for the query.
In the Key-Exeqry-Trigger of the From-Clause-Query-Block I set the global package variables with values of the block-items I am interested in. In the From-Clause-Query I used the values in the where-clause via package functions which return the global package variables.
Hope my solution will work for your problem.

Cannot query in forms when using headstart menu

When we Generate forms from designer6i and run them without a menu, we can
query in forms.
When we generate a menu from desinger6i and attach it to the forms we cannot
query in forms.
We have set back the original objectlibrary and generated again. This does not
help. May be it is some preference which is not correct.
Please help.

Daud,
Could you give more details on your problem?
- designer version
- developer version
- headstart version & additional patch numbers
- did you get the headstart demo up and running, does the problem occur there also?
- if not, can you generate the headstart demo components from designer to reproduce the error?

Notes:
1. When i put the cursor before "variable" (starting of the query) and execute the script i get an Error: ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement.
2. When i put the cursor just before "SELECT" i get a pop up.
a. it is a Toad window which displays the available variables (in this case :SYSDATE_UTS).
b. gives me a dropdown option to select the type (by default VARCHAR2 is selected).
c. there is a value field where i need to enter the value for the Variable.
d. the SQL statement shown in this dilog box does not include the 1st 2 lines
variable SYSDATE_UTS NUMBER;
exec SYSDATE_UTS := (sysdate-to_date('19700101','yyyymmdd'))*86400;
Q: is there something wrong in the syntax i am using?
Sven W. - I have been using your method all these days, which works just fine. i wanted to know how i could use a variable instead.
Business Requirement - My whole intent is to calculate the Age of an incident (Difference between "Reported Date" and current date) and to assign Age Groups (0-1 Days, 2-4 Days,....,20+ Days).

                  FROM(SELECT TO_DATE(&from_date,'DD-MON-YYYY') in_dt1,
                              TO_DATE(&to_date,'DD-MON-YYYY') in_dt2
                             FROM dual)
                  CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (in_dt2 - in_dt1)+1) qry1);
Now run the query it will prompt you for the inputs. You can pass the date values and check the result. Otherwise replace &from_date,&to_date with user inputs

Problems about deploying Oracle web application (Forms, Reports)

I am going to deploy Oracle web applications (Forms and Reports) and plan to use the same server machine for both Application web server and Database server.
1. How can I enable SSL (for data encryption) on Application web server for Oracle Forms ?
2. Since both Application web server and Database server will use the same machine, do I still need Oracle Advanced Security for data transmission between Application web server and Database server if data encryption for transmission is required ?
3. Can I user Oracle Forms to call Oracle Report on web as I did in Client/Server in the past ?
Experts like you may have come across such problems. Would you please give me some opinions/ideas ?
Regards,
Richard

1. check the paper about the Forms servlet architecture on otn forms section for SSL tips.
3. Check the reports and forms integration paper on otn too.

Hi Andreas,
Thanks you for your help. I am trying to implement third party external LDAP authentication for APEX and Forms.

The correct way to handle this is to use bind variables.
And use DBMS_XMLGEN instead of DBMS_XMLQUERY :
create or replace procedure temp (
p_mtr_id       in varchar2
, p_from_date    in date
, p_through_date in date
is
l_xml   CLOB;
l_query VARCHAR2(2000);
l_ctx   dbms_xmlgen.ctxHandle;
begin
l_query:= 'SELECT
    a.s_datetime DATETIME,
    a.downdate Ending_date,
    a.downtime Ending_time,
    TO_CHAR(ROUND(a.downusage,3),''9999999.000'') kWh_Usage,
    TO_CHAR(ROUND(a.downcost,2),''$9,999,999.00'') kWh_cost,
    TO_CHAR(ROUND(B.DOWNUSAGE,3),''9999999.000'') KVARH

Connecting oracle dev 2000 forms to oracle 9i database on another server

we have these oracle developer 2000 forms (in .fmx format) in a server and the data of these forms in another server.... the server with the data is very old and is very slow...so we decided to relocate the database(oracle 9i) to a new server..... also, we move the developer 2000 forms from the old server to another server which will serve as the front end to the new data server.
The problem is we can't figure out how to make the developer 2000 forms on the new front end server to point to the new database on the new data server. I would really appreciate if u cud gimme some advice on this... so we need to know how the forms find the data, where this "connection string" is for developer 2000 forms.

You have to create a Net Service from "Net Configuration Assistant". Or you can copy TNSNAMES.ora file from your old server to new server. You can find TNSNAMES.ora file in developer_suite_Home/Network/admin folder.

How to enforce index in oracle query

Hi all
how to enforce index in oracle query
Regards

Use INDEX hint to force Optimizer to use the specfied index.
You really need to investigate why Optimizer doesn't choose the index. Remember, INDEX SCAN are not always GOOD.
