Problem inputting Chinese characters in oracle forms

Hi,
We have a Chinese character: UCS2=7A4F (UTF8=E7A98F) If we try to input it to a control in a Forms application using chanjie (key sequence h-d-b-s-p) input method, it becomes "?", but if we input it using same method in word or notepad, it shows correctly and can then be copy-and-paste to oracle forms.
Is there some sort of implicit conversion of Chinese character input done by Oracle Forms controls such that it is unable to decode this character properly? Or is there some sort of setup that can be done to bypass this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, hopefully as soon as possible.
Thank you very much.

Problem with List Item in oracle forms

Hello Experts,
                     I am new in oracle forms and i am using oracle forms 11g with weblogic 10.3.5 at windows 7.
I have 3 database tables say(tbl_city,tbl_state,tbl_address).
tbl_city
C_ID
C_name
S_ID
0
None
0
1
XYZ
1
2
AS
2
3
AXD
2
tbl_state
ID
s_ID
S_Name
0
None
1
XY
2
ASD
tbl_address
A_ID
A_Street
S_ID
C_ID
1
ABC
1
1
Now I have made an oracle form having data block tbl_address with base table name tbl_address. In the form there are two list: one(list_state) for State_Name & State_ID and another(list_city) for City Name & C_ID display.
Here I want when I set State_name to ASD then List item list_city should be populated with the values having State_NAME=ASD not of State_Name=XY or None.I have tried it to make but not succeeded.I have made a procedure to populate list_city list item as:
-- here item_nm-->List item Name, sel_val & sel_val2 for selecting C_ID and C_NAME,   tablNm---->tbl_CITY, whr for where condition,   mtch--->selected value of list_State(list item in form)
PROCEDURE list_item(block_nm varchar2,item_nm varchar2,sel_val varchar2,sel_val2 varchar2,tablNm varchar2,whr varchar2,mtch varchar2) IS
group_id RecordGroup;
group_name varchar2(10) :='abc';
status NUMBER;
query1 varchar2(350);
item_name varchar2(20);
match varchar2(50);
BEGIN
    match:=mtch;
    item_name:=block_nm||'.'||item_nm;
group_id := find_group(group_name);
if not id_null(group_id) then
delete_group(group_id);
end if;
--if whr='' then
--    match:='0';
--    end if;
query1:='select '|| sel_val || ',TO_CHAR('|| sel_val2 || ') from '|| tablNm ||' where '||whr||' = '||mtch;
message(query1);
group_id := Create_Group_From_Query(group_name,query1);
/* Select statement must have two column*/
status := Populate_Group(group_id);
Populate_List(item_name,group_id);
exception
    when others then
    message('error');
END;
I am not able to guess what trigger in oracle forms should be used to populate list item(list_city). Please help by giving useful suggestion.
Thank You

How to read StarOffice Spreadsheet using Oracle Form?

Hi all
I want to read StarOffice spreadsheet with few columns in Oracle forms.
I have done this with Microsoft Excel but not with StarOffice.
Does anyone have idea regards how to do this?
Rgds

We've done this using the OpenOffice 2.4 / LibreOffice UNO interface. There are a bunch of JAR files which are distributed together with OpenOffice: unoloader.jar, juh.jar, jurt.jar, ridl.ar, unoil.jar (in the %OPENOFFICE_HOME%/program/classes directory). You can find the documentation here (technically it's easier than OLE because OpenOffice provides a Java implementation of UNO. However, the documentation is far from being as good as Microsoft's Office API docs):

ORACLE FORM HELP

Hello all
I am pretty new to Oracle and I am wondering how do you edit the form layout in 9i. I mean, the default toolbar and color scheme etc. Where are the properties for this?
Thanks
M

It's been a long time since I used the tool but as I recall there is pretty good help text in Oracle Forms.
the default toolbar and color schemeNot quite sure what you're after here. If you meaning changing these values in an actual Forms module then you need to edit the inherited properties to use different items in the Object Library. If you mean you want to change the properties of the actual default toolber, etc then you need to open the appropriate template module and edit the items.
I am pretty new to OracleYou may find it more useful to ask Forms questions in the forum Forms rather than here, which is database only. Not many Forms developers visit these parts.
Cheers, APC

Problem in importing JavaClass in oracle forms

Hi gurus,
I
I am using
Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
     With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
Oracle Toolkit Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
PL/SQL Version 10.1.0.4.2 (Production)I am trying to import java Class into forms builder. I am doing this for the first time .
for this I have done...........
I made a simple class in jDeveloper for practice with simple output line
public class getSystem {
     public String var ="thistext";
     * @param args the command line arguments
    public String get_text() {
     return this.var;
    public static void main(String[] args) {
       System.out.println("this is test");
}then I made this file as SAM.JAR (using deploying methode)
set directory path of this SAM.JAR forms_builder_path in regedit,
then import this class in form builder using program > import java class
have the following code in program units
PACKAGE getSystem /* getSystem */ IS
-- DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - it is machine generated!
-- Constructor for signature ()V
FUNCTION new RETURN ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
-- Method: main ([Ljava/lang/String;)V
PROCEDURE main(
    a0    ORA_JAVA.JARRAY);

    RETURN JNI.CALL_STRING_METHOD(FALSE, obj, 'getSystem', 'get_text', '()Ljava/lang/String;', args);
END;
BEGIN
NULL;
END;----------------------------------------
I made a simple form having one button , on when-button-pressed trigger I wrote this code
declare
       Jvar ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
       Fvar varchar2(100);
       ex varchar2(5000);
       javaException ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;

       Jvar := getsystem.new();
       Fvar := getsystem.get_text(Jvar);
       message('this is outcomes from java'||Fvar);
EXCEPTION
       WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN THEN
         message('Java Exception');
       WHEN others THEN
         message(sqlerrm);
   END;---------------------------
it shows me message 'java Exeption' which means something is wrong ....
when I used this code taken from form builder's help
EXCEPTION
       WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN THEN
         javaException := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;
         -- Print out the Exception by using the toString()
            -- Method of the exception Object
         message(Exception_.toString(javaException));
      -- and clean up
      ORto catch the exception it shows toString must be declared.....
once I know how to get the value of java methods on forms I could countinue my practices using java on forms please guide me
thanks

thanks for you kind replies Sir,
Craig Sir now it's working very well for me , now I can get and set the values of variables and as well as methodes
the problem was solved ,
Andreas Weiden Sir your was right I didn't set the classPath setting in .ENV file , thanks a lot ..
these are the points I really wanna share for those who'll ever face the same problem..
(1) made simple class in Jdeveloper
public class getSystem {
     public String varibless ="thistext";
     * @param args the command line arguments
    public int get_text(int bc) {
     int a = 5;
     int b= 10;
     return bc+a;
    public static void main(String[] args) {
       getSystem var2 = new getSystem();
       System.out.println(var2.get_text(5));
}make it .jar file using deploying mathode...
(2) set FORMS_BUILDER_CLASSPATH in regedit..
(3) restart forms builder and go to progarm > import java class
(4) select the class name that you made
(5) press option button and check include get/set public fields if you wanna interact with variables in class
(7) now make simple canvas with button , us this code on when-new-button press trigger
declare
       Jvar ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
       Fvar varchar2(100);
       ex varchar2(5000);
       javaException ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT;
       --mn ORA_JAVA.JARRAY(10);
begin
       jvar := getsystem.new;
       Fvar := getsystem.get_text(Jvar,5);
       message('this is outcomes from java'||Fvar);
       ex   := getsystem.getvaribless(jvar);
       message('value of the variable in class '||ex);
          --- similerty change the value of variable in class and then get it again
         getSystem.setvaribless(jvar,'yournewvalue');
EXCEPTION
       WHEN ORA_JAVA.java_error THEN
         message( ora_java.last_error);
       WHEN others THEN
         message(sqlerrm);

Is it happing because i'm trying to upload .XLS file ???
My coding is as follows...........
OPEN DATASET p_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
    IF sy-subrc NE 0.
      IF sy-batch IS INITIAL.
        MESSAGE i001(zz) WITH 'Error opening file for upload'.
        EXIT.

Hi,
Check whether path ur providing to the open data set stmt is correct or not in debugging mode.
* File upload to internal table from UNIX Directory
    IF NOT p_i1file IS INITIAL AND NOT p_path IS INITIAL.
      CONCATENATE p_path p_i1file INTO v_file.
      CONDENSE v_file.
      OPEN DATASET v_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE MESSAGE v_msg.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        WRITE: / 'INPUT FILE CONTAINS NO RECORD :'(010), v_file.
        DO.
          CLEAR tbl_input.
          READ DATASET v_file INTO tbl_input.
          IF sy-subrc NE 0.
            EXIT.
          ELSE.
            APPEND tbl_input.
          ENDIF.
        ENDDO.
* Close Input File
        CLOSE DATASET v_file.
      ELSE.
        WRITE:/'Error uploading file: '(008),v_file.
        STOP.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
It should work.check the sy-subrc value and file value in debug mode.

Problem Multiple record navigation in oracle forms

I retrieve multiple records using cursor fetch command in the select query i have given condition to retrieve details of employee no.
For example if we are giving an input as empno:100 then it retrieves two records of same emp no(100).It displays 2/3 records in the task bar when i navigate using push buttons it displays an empty record in the interface provided.(ie 3/3 records).How to avoid third unknown record displaying in the interface.

most likely the problem is during the population of the block using the query.
i assume that you are creating one additional record after the last record from your query..
so this must be either with the CREATE_RECORD or NEXT_RECORD problem in the loop.so you should check in the loop first if the record exists, then do CREATE_RECORD or NEXT_RECORD.

Oracle Forms LAF Problem

Hi,
I've been working on Oracle Forms & the LAF project for the past 1 week. Im totally new to both of them.
Constantly, im getting problem in implementing CSS to oracle forms using the LAF project.
I downloaded the latest LAF package and followed the steps indicated in the LAF project site. But, when i try to run the oracle form, the CSS is not getting applied to the forms.
The whole window is shown with a white background, and the CSS gets applied only to the Grid Body part. The changes i do in the CSS file gets reflected in the Grid Body part, which means the module reads the CSS files successfully, but CSS is not getting applied to other things.
Even when i try running the sample programs provided in the LAF package its not running properly. The same problem exists. Only the Grid Body part is working.
And also, the fmb file i worked on seems to be working properly on another machine. Is it that im missing any configuration in order to make it work.
I've attached screen shots below. Please check it and help me with a solution.

Problem reading data from oracle database 11g using OleDbDataReader

Hi everyone I work with Visual Studio 2010 and C# programming language. I have a problem reading data from the oracle database. I created a WPF application with my main Window Xaml and class files and 1 more class called DataFiles. The thing I want is to read some data from the database on my grid in my WPF window. Problem is even though it connects to the database the grid is always empty. It isn't the connection string as I tested it and it connects to the database the problem seems to be in showing the LASTNAME (PREZIME in my native tongue) on the grid which is what it's supposed to do.
Here is the code:
Data Files Code
using System;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Data.OleDb;
namespace SQLKonekcija
    public class clsEmployee
        public string Prezime { get; set; }
    public class DataAccess
        OleDbConnection oleCon;
        OleDbCommand oleComd;
        public DataAccess()
            string connectionString = "provider=ORAOLEDB.ORACLE; data source=ORCL; password=****; user id=****;";
            oleCon = new OleDbConnection(connectionString);
        public ObservableCollection<clsEmployee> GetAllEmployee()
            ObservableCollection<clsEmployee> EmpCol = new ObservableCollection<clsEmployee>();
            oleComd = new OleDbCommand();
            oleComd.Connection = oleCon;
            oleComd.CommandText = "Select PREZIME from UPOSLENICI";
            oleCon.Open();
            OleDbDataReader Reader = oleComd.ExecuteReader();
            Reader.Read();
            while (Reader.Read())
                EmpCol.Add(new clsEmployee()
                    Prezime = Reader["PREZIME"].ToString()
            oleCon.Close();
            return EmpCol;
        }And here is my main window.cs code
public partial class MainWindow : Window
        clsEmployee objEmpToAdd;
        DataAccess objDs;
        public MainWindow()
            InitializeComponent();
        private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
            objDs = new DataAccess();
            dgEmp.ItemsSource = objDs.GetAllEmployee();And the XAML

                <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding PREZIME}" Header="Prezime"></DataGridTextColumn>
            </DataGrid.Columns>

    </Grid>
</Window>
The guys on the MSDN forums told me I should ask the question here so sorry if it's not your field.
Hope u guys can help, thanks.

I tried it, commented out the reader.read and have the following connection string
string connectionString = "provider=ORAOLEDB.ORACLE; data source=ORCL; password=****; user id=****; OLEDB.NET=True"
Unfortunately the result is the same.

Oracle forms upload crash

Hi, I downloaded the VM "Database App Development VM" from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html and executed, on this installation, upgrade to APEX 4.2.4.00 .08 through patches.
My problem is that converting an oracle forms with the appropriate utility and making the upload in the "migrations", the server returns an error "500 Internal Server Error". The xml file is correct because this is possible to reconstruct a forms (. Fmb) working and I've tried with various forms of varying size and complexity experiencing the same error. I realized that the problem also occurs on the system of "test / demo" http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex. For the test, I followed the directions to the letter of guidance conversion forms to apex.
Someone can 'help me or found the same error?
Thank you and greetings
Message was edited by: dparisi
We have tried also with a simply form, generated ad hoc, with one block....the server also crash with error 500

Thank you for your reply.
No unfortunately connecting didn't help =(
I think it's probably something to do with reading the form width/height so it can create the working area, but it fails there. The actual canvas has bigger height than my working area. Therefore I can't scroll down to see the end of my canvas. The crash happens when I click anywhere inside the working area or canvas or when i use wheel down on my mouse to scroll down.

We installed Oracle 11g What is this ? 11g is database ? If yes it is 11 XE or what version ..?
By the way, if you install 11g XE edition, it will not work with Oracle forms 6.0.8.13.

Can I use Oracle Forms Services 11g with Database 9.2.0.8.0?

Hi everyone.
My department is evaluating development tools in order to build new web applications, and also possibly to migrate current applications buit with Oracle Forms 6.0.5.34.0. Our database is Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit.
We have read that the newest Oracle Forms version is Oracle Forms Services 11g. Is Oracle Forms Services 11g compatible with Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit? or would we have to migrate our RDBMS to Oracle 11g?
If our database is compatible, what would we need to develop and deploy applications with Oracle Forms Services 11g?
Many thanks in advance.

Wheter it's compatible or not: Database 9.2.0.8 is in sustaining support which means you won't get patches for it. So even if it is compatible I'd opt to upgrade to a newer version, as I wouldn't feel comfortable having a not-supported product out in production.
Have a look at the certification matrix for supported configurations
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/fmw-11gr1certmatrix.xls
As for the requirements; most things can be found on the forms homepage on OTN:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/
or at the documentation:
