Readonly table with where clause value from previous page

Question

Hi
I am using jdeveloper 10.1.3.
I have a globalhome page where the user enteres a reference number. i have a backing bean for the globalhome page that runs a method to run an sql that seraches for this reference number, if the reference number exsits the user is directed to a detail page.
this detail page should display details of this reference number.
i have set up a read only table to display this data based on a view object with a bind varaible in the where clause.
however i am unsure how to set this bind varaible value to the reference entered in the first globalhome page.
please can anyone advise how to do this.
regards

Hi,
You can follow following steps to achieve this
1) Write a custom method in your Application module like
public void executeMyVO(String bindVarValue)
MyVOImpl vo= getMyVo();
vo.setNamedWhereClauseParam(<bind variable name decalred in VO>,bindVarValue);
vo.execute();
2) Expose the above method to client. (Right click AM-->Client-->Shift method from left to right)
3) In the pagedef of globalhome page, create a method action for the aboce created custom method
4) execute the method action from your backing bean after you run an sql that seraches for this reference number.
Hope this help.
