Oracle Support Requesting Forms Webcast Topic Suggestions

Question

<p>Every other month, Oracle Support has been broadcasting, via Web Conference, presentations which provide a variety of Oracle Forms related topics.</p>
<p>We would like to solicit your ideas for new presentation topics for future Advisor Webcasts. The topic should broad enough so as to be of value to most attendees. The presentations are limited to approximately one hour, so the topic should not be overly complex. Please also avoid overly simply topics, as well because these will likely not be of interest to a large enough audience.</p>
<p>Please refer to Metalink Note 423317.1 for a list of previously presented Webcasts. Replays for these Webcasts are also available from this note. This note will also provide details which allow you to register for upcoming events.</p>
<p>Although we cannot guarantee that your topic will be presented, all will be considered. The above mentioned note will be updated as new topics are added.</p>
<p>Please feel free to post your suggestions in this thread.

Matt,
Thank you very much for your feedback. Great idea!
The Forms webcasts are presented by the Oracle Forms Support team from around the world. These engineers primarily Support the Forms product line and therefore have limited exposure to the EBusiness line. Although we will definitely discuss your suggestion within my team (Forms Support), I would also recommend that you refer to the WebCast main note which has more information about other lines of business and their presentations. Schedules for Ebusiness and other products are also listed in that note. See note 398877.1 and its references.

That said, most of the content presented in the Forms webcasts has been somewhat generic. Meaning that it applies to most versions of Forms - past to present. Some exceptions might be in situations where we may have been discussing core Application Server features like SSO or EM. In the case of WebUtil, although it was designed and tested to work with Forms 9.x and newer, the basic idea of having a Java Bean or PJC (which is what WebUtil is) in Forms is generic regardless of whether or not you are using EBusiness. If you are using the latest versions of EBusiness (Version 12), it is based on Forms 10, so many of our Forms webcasts may apply, including WebUtil.

Again, thank you for the feedback! I will be sure to pass you idea on to the EBiz team.
