Record group/list of values question

Is it possible to assign one record group/list of values to multiple data items on a canves? If so, how is it done.
Thanks

Thanks for the replies..
What I have is this... I have a db record with 3 currency code fields, three different types of codes, displayed on the canvas. When the user mouse's over to any of the currency code fields, I wanted the lov to pop up and the user pick one of the selections. The lov has 2 columns, country and currency
Ex: France | Euro
U.S. | Dol
I built this as a static record group. If I'm in the second currency code field and pick a value, the first currency code field gets overlayed with the new value.

but haw i can pass a parameter (the value of a field) in the query that have the ' ' ??
i try this

ok , thank's work very well, but i have a little problem :
the first time that i choose a value from the first list the second become populate very well, but the second time and over, the second list don't change and remeber the first choise.
rg_id := Find_Group( rg_name );
VAR_SQL := 'SELECT USER_ID USER_ID, TO_CHAR(USER_ID) USER_ID2 FROM USER_LIST WHERE USER_AGENZIA = ''' || :B0.USER_AGENZIA || ''' ORDER BY 2';

may be the populate_group ??

Strange Problem in dynamically list population with record group

Hello Room,
I am dynamically populating a single list with 2 record groups. I am having a strange problem. All the code are written in 2 seperate buttons. The code of every button is given below.
Button 1 code:-
DECLARE
rg_reports RECORDGROUP;
rg_name VARCHAR2(40) := 'REPORTS';
vTemp NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- Pls make sure Group doesn't already exist
rg_reports := FIND_GROUP(rg_name);
-- If it doesn't exist then create it and add ur query to it
IF Id_Null (rg_reports) THEN
rg_reports:=CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name , 'SELECT companyname,to_char(co) from companymaster order by companyname');
end if;
--Populate the Record Group
vTemp:=POPULATE_GROUP(rg_reports);
POPULATE_LIST('REPORTS.EXAMPLELIST', rg_name);
Delete_Group( rg_reports );
END;
Button 2 Code:-
DECLARE
rg_reports RECORDGROUP;
rg_name VARCHAR2(40) := 'REPORTS';
vTemp NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- Pls make sure Group doesn't already exist
rg_reports := FIND_GROUP(rg_name);
-- If it doesn't exist then create it and add ur query to it
IF Id_Null (rg_reports) THEN
rg_reports:=CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(rg_name , 'SELECT accountname,to_char(co) from accountmaster order by accountname');
end if;
--Populate the Record Group
vTemp:=POPULATE_GROUP(rg_reports);
POPULATE_LIST('REPORTS.EXAMPLELIST', rg_name);
Delete_Group( rg_reports );
END;
The code is same here only the sql is different in these 2 buttons. Now the problem point.
when i press button 1, I get the list populated ok. when i try to click on the list item and keep the button pressed the list gets scrolled properly.
when i press button 2 after that i get account names well populated in the same list item as well, but this time, when i keep the button pressed the list does not scroll below as in button 1. It does not even allow to select different item from the list of button 2 code.
I tried to clear cache, cookies, exit browser everything and try to run the button 2 first, but still the problem in button 2 code.
Following are my system details.
windows 7 professional edition.
Oracle database 11g on windows 7
Oracle forms 10g patchset 10.1.2.0.2 on windows 7
Browser Netscape Navigator with oracle jinitiator 1.3.1.22
But this form is run by a client side html file where oracle forms 10g is not installed on windows xp. html file is just referring server url to run the module. The file is run on Netscape navigator browser with oracle jinitiator 1.3.1.22
My question is that is this a bug ? if button 1 gets the list item scrolled, why is the problem with button 2 even though i press it first. Here I am deleting the record group also. after the code is over. Initially I thought this may be the character length problem so I took the maximum character length for that list item as given by the 2 columns in database.
Why is the list scrolling not happening in button 2 but in button 1 with same codes on both ?
Anybody please help me.

The problem is the second query. I would guess that the TO_CHAR(co) is not unique for each account, but is the same for the accounts. And as the second item in the select-list is the listitems values, all your listitem-entries have the same value. therefore, of you select any entry, the list will always go the the first entry again.
Adjust your query.

Record group query question

Just wondering if we need to check :system.mode = query or normal in the query for record groups or oracle forms handles it automatically
Thanks

No, you should not check System.Mode in a record group query. But then, Forms does not do that either.
Your question makes me wonder what you are doing... Record groups are usually populated only when you need to see a list of values, or use an LOV to perform an edit.

URGENT,FRM-41337: Cannot populat the list from record group

Hi all:
Can anyone help me in that problem?
I have a database item in the block as a list item with combo box style and I use this code in WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE at the form module level to populate that combo box list:
DECLARE
     group_id RECORDGROUP := FIND_GROUP('group');
     list_id ITEM := FIND_ITEM('employees.job_id');
     x number;
BEGIN
IF NOT ID_NULL (group_id) THEN
          DELETE_GROUP (group_id);
     END IF;
          group_id := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY ('group','select name,TO_CHAR(id) job from cmn_jobs where job_type_id = 4720 ');
     x := POPULATE_GROUP (group_id);
     POPULATE_LIST (list_id, group_id);
     EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
null;
     END;
That code worked very well and without any problem, but when I change the list item from combo box style to poplist style then the forms give that error:
FRM-41337: Cannot populat the list from record group
And an additional null/blanke element appears in the poplist with original element that come from RECORDGROUP.
So can anyone help me to solve that problem please?

First, how I can assign a default or initial value DYNAMICALLY to my poplist.Set the default-value to a parameter like :PARAMETER.MYPARAMETER then you can assign the desired default-value to the parameter.
second, if I have popliste say X for example depend on another poplist say Y ,so when I put the code to populate popliste X on WHEN-LIST-CHANGED on popliste Y and make query then the >forms return FRM-40301 Query caused no records to be retrieved ,but when I have a copy for that code in WHEN-LIST-CHANGED and put it in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE at the form >module the form work and returns records, so is it any error or exception in what I did.Can't answer that, you should check :SYSTEM.LAST_QUERY to see why the query does not returnany records.
At the last, which better to put the code for popliste in PRE-FORM trigger at the form module or in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE at the form module.I would use the PRE-FORM-trigger

Frm - 41337 - can not populate the list from record group

Hi
I have created a form with 4 combo boxes. And i am trying to populate the 4 combo boxes dynamically.
Here is my table structure.

END;
Now the problem is i can able to get the values fro the first two colums. but the third column values are not populating.
i am getting an error frm - 41337 - can not populate the list from record group.
PLease help me in this.
Thanks in advance,

What is the maximum number of records in a dynamic parameter list of values?

In Crystal Reports Developer, I am attempting to add a dynamic parameter from a view. The view has 6773 total records. The field used for the parameter has 1819 distinct values, none of which are null.
I have the parameter set to allow multiple values, and I have added
field is equal to parameter
in the select expert.
However, when I refresh the report and tell it to prompt for new parameters, the list of values does not contain all the values, so about half of the records are dropped.
Is there a way I can guarantee that all 1819 (or an unlimited number) records show up in the List of Values?

Hierarchical Tree Data Query/Record Group Question

I need help with Hierarchical Forms right now. I'm currently trying to implement a hierarchical tree to display the different items in different categories. I have been reading up on it for the past few days, and i do not understand a few things.
What is the difference between a data query and record group? they seem the same to me.
How does the XX = prior XXX work? i understand that this is what connects the parent to the child.
How do you determine what depth the node is? its done in the record group/data query, but how do i decide what level it is dynamically?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Thanks! I am unable to create a table specifically for the tree because i am using tables that have been ported live and are in use. My question about levels is how do I know which depth the node is. For example, i have a category called Information Technology and a category item called Business Informatics. I want to know how to decide that the Category(information technology) is on level 1 and the Item(business informatics) is on level 2.
Information Technology
|_
Business Informatics
And i do know how the Connect By XX = prior XXX works in the data query/record group.
Thanks for your help!

List item - Record Group Query - Alignment improper Order

Dear All,
When am trying to concatenate two columns using record group query and displaying in the list item, the alignment is not in proper order.
E.g; Below is the columns and data's used in process:
CODE_VALUE     SHORT_DESC     DESCRIPTION
ROLL1     Customer - Non accidental     Production, booking with other carrier, bad projection.
ROLL2     Customer - Accidental     L/C, B/L draft, Customs, Samples, AMS, LAR.
ROLL3     ABC - Lack of empty     Lack of empty units.
ROLL4     ABC CDE - Roll over     AGR RRR decision.
ROLL5     ABC XXX - Accidental     IMO or OOG refused, operational problems, Cut & Run.
ROLL6     ABC YYY - Fictive booking     Equipment buffer, dummy booking.
Below is the record group query used in forms:
PROCEDURE p_when_new_form_instance
IS
GROUP_ID recordgroup;
list_id item := FIND_ITEM ('BLK_CONTROL.LI_ROLL_REASON');
rg_name VARCHAR2 (20) := 'LI_ROLL_REASONS';
status NUMBER;
l_query VARCHAR2 (4000);
BEGIN
l_query :=
'SELECT rpad(short_desc,50,'' '')||'' | ''||description description, code_value code_value FROM codes WHERE code_value IN (''ROLL1'', ''ROLL2'', ''ROLL3'',''ROLL4'',''ROLL5'',''ROLL6'')';
GROUP_ID := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY (rg_name, l_query);
status := POPULATE_GROUP (GROUP_ID);
POPULATE_LIST (list_id, GROUP_ID);
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS
THEN
pl_common.when_others;
END;
Moreover i have my list item font property by default as ""MS SANS SERIF" and when i run in Forms Builder am getting the alignment as below.
Result:
====
DESCRIPTION     CODE_VALUE
Customer - Non accidental | Production, booking with other carrier, bad projection.     ROLL1
Customer - Accidental | L/C, B/L draft, Customs, Samples, AMS, LAR.     ROLL2
ABC - Lack of empty | Lack of empty units.     ROLL3
ABC CDE - Roll over | AGR RRR decision.     ROLL4
ABC XXX - Accidental | IMO or OOG refused, operational problems, Cut & Run.     ROLL5
ABC YYY - Fictive booking | Equipment buffer, dummy booking.      ROLL6
Above order is not the expected result as all the |(pipe) symbol should display in proper order as below.
Expected Result:
==========
DESCRIPTION     CODE_VALUE
Customer - Non accidental | Production, booking with other carrier, bad projection.     ROLL1
Customer - Accidental | L/C, B/L draft, Customs, Samples, AMS, LAR.     ROLL2
ABC - Lack of empty | Lack of empty units.     ROLL3
ABC CDE - Roll over | AGR RRR decision.     ROLL4
ABC XXX - Accidental | IMO or OOG refused, operational problems, Cut & Run.     ROLL5
ABC YYY - Fictive booking | Equipment buffer, dummy booking.      ROLL6
I tried with RPAD and LPAD still the alignment issue is there; i know the issue is because of invariable length of the font.
But is there any solution to override this it will be of great help.
So please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks..................
Regards,
Sunil.G

Hi Francois,
Thanks for your reply. I have tried changing the font to "Courier(Western)" it is working fine.
But as per the standards defined, it should be "Ms Sans Serif" nothing apart from that.So that is where the problem lies. :(

Populating list item with a record group

I'm trying to populate a list item (TList) with a Record group with a simple query: SELECT FRM_NAME FROM FORM
In the forms WHEN_VALIDATE_NEW_FORM trigger, I use POPULATE_LIST('FORM_LIST', 'RG_FORM_LIST');
Am I missing something? I get the error FRM-41334: Invalid record group for list population.

thanks, i've tried that, but still nothing. I must be doing something simple, but very wrong. I tried with oracle's default scott/tiger schema, created a simple form with a record group with 2 columns, and populating a manually made poplist (populate_list('LIST4', 'RG1'); Still get errors:
FRM-30191: No list items defined for required poplist.
List LIST4
Item: LIST4
Block: EMP
Form: MODULE5
FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output.

Hi!
To suppress Oracle Reports native Parameter Form just add:
add_parameter( pl_id, 'pARAMform', text_parameter, 'NO' );

Populating Record Groups Question

I am developing an I.T. recruitment system where a position can have many applications by candidates. If an application is successfull I want to select the candidate that got the job on the position form. The tricky bit is I only want to be able to select candidates that have applied. I have tried creating a record group like:-
select application.candidate_id, application.candidate_id
from application
where :application.position_id = :position.position_id
order by 1
It does not work. Can you even refer to form variables (:) within a record group,
or has anyone got an alternative way to populate my list item, referencing the form variables
as select criteria.
Many Thanks
Marcus Nye

You can populate individual records (not have to use query) - have a look at record groups in the on line help - there are examples.

Question on list of value for both of deski and webi

Hi,
I have two questions on list of values issue: (we are using boxir3.1)
1) on the deski, when I click on the Values on the 'Enter or Select Values' prmopt, the list of value it shows is not what it should be, it is pointed to other object, for expense, the value should show department code but the list of values shows the company name. I did refresh, and also refreshed on the universe side: restored default, automatic refresh before use. then export the universe, still doing the same. the only way to correct it I found so far is to change the prompt text which I don't prefer (we used userresponse in the report, it will be too much to change.
2) for the webi report, when I click on the 'Refresh Values' on the prompts page, it shows (No value). I also checked on the universe side, did restored default, automatic refresh before use. then export the universe, still doing the same.
Please help,
Thanks,
jt

Try a new universe on the same connection, build the same objects. Just something simple to test the LOV results. If it doesn't work, it could be a data issue, or a permissions issue as suggested.
You should check the SQL created for the LOV in the universe and verify that it's going to the right place.
You can check to see if there is another LOV using the same name and if so, change it. The LOV name is found on the properties tab. You can find the LOV in the universe folder as a sub-folder from your environment. In my case, I have a folder named @Dev and a folder for universes inside that, then a folder beyond that with the universe name that contains the LOV files. Find the one in question and delete it, ensuring that it gets recreated.
Try making sure that any unv and lov files on your server are purged. You may also need to test cache testings. The easy way to test if it's a cache issue is to reboot your system, which should clear the cache.

Read more than one attribute from list of values record

Hi,
I am using Jdev 11.1.1.3.0.
I have the following situation,
have defined a read only view (schools information) which is a list of values for schools information ( schoolId, school name and school code) , I have to execute Query for that view as an Invoke Action in the executable s of the page,
I need three attributes (A, B, C) in another view (name it student's school) to be set to the school information corresponding to a school chosen from a SelectOneChoice List
I could not define the schools information as LOV for the attributes in the student's school, as I have to execute it in the executable s,
I have an Iterator for the schools Information on the page and, bound the attribute A (from the student's school) SelectOneChoice as list to the school name (from school Information) , and then tried to read the current row of the schools Information Iterator like this inside a bean:
   Row tempRow = getIteratorBinding("CmnLookupPrevSchoolRegView1Iterator").getCurrentRow();
   currStdPrevSchoolRow.setAttribute("B", tempRow.getAttribute("SchoolId"));
   currStdPrevSchoolRow.setAttribute("C", tempRow.getAttribute("SchoolCode"));but referring to the data saved in the DB, the values stored for the attributes B and C are not corresponding to the chosen school name , but corresponding to the first row of the iterator. ( not the current chosen)
is there any suggestions, to have another approach to connect all the three attributes to the corresponding chosen values.
or maybe it is just some properties for the Iterators,
thanks in advance
best regards,

Hi,
Have a look here: http://blogs.oracle.com/jdevotnharvest/2010/12/reading_the_selected_value_of_an_adf_bound_select_list_in_java.html
If you read from a list binding then you get the row value from there as well - not from the iterator as lists don't change the current row
