Records Blocked

          Hi,
          I have an Entity Bean and a state-less session Bean with the deployment descriptors
          given below. State-less SB has some business methods to add/update/delete records
          in Oracle table thru' entity bean. Now the problem is, if a record is modified
          externally (say using SQL*PLUS) and not committed, the beans are hanging until
          the record is committed. Sometimes transactions are timing out. Session bean is
          not able to both read and write to entity bean. I am using WLS 6.0 & SP2 on Solaris.
          I thought READ_COMMITTED will not block concurrent transactions for reading records.
          I am wondering if some other parameters need to be set to accomplish this.
          Thanks

Hello Alvaro,
Yes I think that is possible, but I dont remember how now and dont think that hardcoding is a good practice. Anyway I'd recommmend you adding the subtype to the selection screen, then assign a standar variant in SQ01 with this specific absence (hidden maybe) so that the user cant change it
Please remember closing the thread when you got the answer,

Updating a value of a text item in a multi record block based on a change

Hi,
I need to change the value of a text item in a multi record block based on a change to another item's value in the same block.
Suppose there's a text item in a multi record block called dt1 which is of type date, which is changed in a particular record. I want to change the values of the another item in the same multi record block, for all other records by running a loop through all the records in multi record block. I dont want to do it on the press of a button, it should do automatically on change. Help me resolve this issue.

How to do it in multi-record block

Hi all,
i have 1 text items in a multi-record block number of record displayed 10
and i have values like 100 , 50, 30 in first 3 records and in 5th record i want to put some value like
20 then i want to calculate all values like 100 + 50 + 30 +20 = 200 and i want to put the total value in a single record block.
but my problem is i cannot able to calculate all the value because for the totale value i have to
write a for loop to loop through the record
but go_block() is not working in post_change .
if any solution is there plz suggest.......

Hi zeeshan
my problem is i cannot able to calculate all the value because for the total value
put the total value in a single record block.
First pls the following...
Guidelines for Working with Calculated Items Calculated items_
1- They are display-only control items.
2-Calculated items cannot be database items.
3.While you can set a calculated item's Enabled, Mouse Navigate, and Keyboard Navigable properties to Yes,
you cannot set the Insert Allowed or Update Allowed properties to Yes
Second Keyword: TOTAL is a reserved oracle key word... pls read the Details...
go_block() is not working in post_change .well u can use timers but no need for it u can reference block item but first u have to accumulate the values per record in WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM TRIGGER in the last calculated item which is inserted by the user and assign it to the display item in ur current multi-record block :*block_name.total_item*.. as follow...
:block_name.total_item := :item1 + .... ; Then u create a second display item > no of records property = 1 , named e.g. final_summarized_totals
In order to summarize this total values accumulated in the multi-record display item named e.g. block_name.total_item
Finally using PRE-INSERT , PRE-UPDATE,PRE-DELETE Triggers to assign the value calculated into the display item * block_name.total_item* into the db_item into the previously mentioned Trigger Block-Level Off-course.
:block_name.total_db_tem := :i:block_name.final_summarized_totals ; Hope this helps...

How can I create a loop in a multi-record block (on the background)

I have a multi-record block.
In one item I change a value.
Upon this change, in the when-validate-item I would like to
change other records in the same block.
I planned to loop the block with go_record and to do my things
in each record. Unfortunately the go_record built-in is
restricted and cannot be used in a wvi-trigger.
Another approach can be to update the records in the database
and to perform an execute_query after this change. Also this
procedure cannot be used in a wvi.
How can I easily loop in a multi-record block???

You can try to put loop with go_record in KEY-NEXT-ITEM on that
field.
Or if you change something and then press KEY-COMMIT you can
update another records in database and after commit do again
execute_query. Something like :
on KEY-COMMIT:
update_another_records;
commit_form;
execute_query;

Get next value in a Multi Record Block

Hi,
I've a Multi Record block with 2 items like below.
pos width
1 7
8 5
13 5
18 2
ie pos in next item is sum of pos and width of previous item.I've already implemented this.
The problem is if the user changes width in a particular record,I want to change next records pos automatically.
To achieve this,I wrote a when-new-record -instance-trigger as follws:
if :system.cursor_record=1 then
:pos:=1;
elsif :system.record_status='changed' then
:pos:=:pos+:width;
end if;
but even Though I change column width of block,:system.record_status still remain 'INSERT'.
Pls can u pls tell me how can I acheive this?
Prashanth Deshmukh

You cannot use Record Status like that.
You need to create a procedure that loops through your entire block, keeping track of the pos and width of the prior record to calculate the new pos of each record.
Your procedure would need to do something like this:
Declare
    v_Pos pls_integer := 1;
Begin
Go_block('B1');
First_Record;
Loop
    Exit when :System.record_status='NEW';
    :B1.pos := v_Pos;
    v_Pos := v_Pos + :B1.width;
    Exit when :System.last_record = 'TRUE';
    Next_Record;
End Loop;
First_Record;
End;

How to call a report with a bind variable from a multi-record block

Hi,
I have created a report using the BI Publisher functionality. I did all the integration, created the SQL Query and uploaded the template. Up till here everythings fine!
My SQL Query has 2 bind variables.
I will call my report from a multi record block, at the end of each record an icon is shown which the user can click to open the report.
I created a column link for this item (PRINT_REPORT=Inschrijvingsformulier) but I do not manage to pass the parameters to my report. The parameters I want to pass are 2 columns in this Multi Record block.
I created 2 hidden fields on the page P9_PARAMETER1, P9_PARAMETER2 with the same names as my bind variables and fill this in with the values #PARAMETER1#, #PARAMETER2# from the multi record block.
It seems it does not work as my report stays empty. (also XML file stays empty).
Am I trying the wrong way?
Thanks for any advice,
Kris

hi khadeer,
create one report program and write the required code,and call this function module 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME' and give your smartform name and also when u activate ur smart form u will get one function module call that function module also and specify any tables used...
i think this solves ur problem...
any queries revert back..
pls reward points if helpful,

How to do validation on multi record block at run time...

Dear Friends,
I have to do validation at run time on multi record block.
If user tries to enter and save two or more records in same multi record block with same data at run time, it should not allow it and display a message like, " error : Records are having same(duplicate) values. "
I already did validation with the data coming from database table using cursor. But confused about how to do at run time(on one screen only) ??
Please, give details about how to check duplicate records on form block before saving it to the table ????
Regarding details would be greatly helpful.
thanks,

Hi...Pankaj
thanx for your reply..
I already did validation for the data coming from table....
but I need to do it on form only...at run time...
exa...
In one multi record block
record no : column 1 : column 2 : column 3
1 abc 123 hi
2 abc 123 hi
so it should check on the form itself, here I m not getting data from table...I am just
navigating from first record to second using down arrow.
so, may be 2 possibilities.
1) when user navigates using tab to third record, it should say like two duplicate records.(may be like when validate record or item)
2) or when user tries to save, it should say two duplicate records.
so, everyting should take place on form screen only.....
waiting for your reply,
thanx...

Check box Item property in mutiple record block

Hi,
I have migrated a number of forms from 6i to 10g. All seems to be working apart from a problem with the display of check boxes that are part of a multiple record block. The item property for the checkbox has font weight set to bold and this works fine on the 6g version. On the 10g version it is displayed as normal font weight.
Any other items in the record, text items etc are displayed in bold correctly.
As this seems to affect a lot of forms is there some patch/fix that I should have applied or is this just the way it is?
I am trying to use set_item_instance_property to set them manually but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
Thanks in advance and Happy Christmas/New Year.

Problem solved following response from Oracle support desk -
UPDATE
======
Hi Dave,
When using lookandfeel=generic, the colors for different Windows items (e.g., menu, check
box, window background ...etc) are taken directly from the Operating System
(OS) user settings. I tested the issue with lookandfeel=oracle and with
colorScheme set to different values, and check box tick in this case takes the
same color as the color scheme used.
I suggest then using dark color scheme to give you a similar effect as it was in Forms 6i. for example:
colorScheme=Titanium

I have two data Block the master block is single Record block and the 2nd data block is Multiple Record data Block.
I am inserting the fields like category,and post_no for partiular job in single data block
Now in second Multiple Record Data Block,i am inserting the multiple record for above fileds like no. of employees work in the position

Please Guide me
Thanks in advence

As you do a loop over all the records in the block, of course every record is updated.
Also, what you do is not the way is intended to be used. In general, you base a block on a table,then there is no need at all for writing INSERT's or UPDATE's. Forms also know's then, which records to be updated and which not.

Oracle Forms - need to update multi-record block - Help needed asap

Hi,
We are using Oracle apps release 11i - Oracle forms 6i.
I have a field "project_start_date" in project_block in a custom form. There is another multi-record block called role_block in the same custom form and it has a field named start_date. Requirement is when ever I make change in the project_start_date in project_block, that should reflect in role_block.start_date. I tried different means and could update only the very first record of the multi-record block - role_block. I need to update all the records in the role_block with the same project_start_date. Used looping and several other methods. But could not achieve. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks

How to change the Height of item....!!!! in multi record block

Here is the problem I want to change one item height in multiple records block..
I tried to do the following
set_item_instance_property(:system.mouse_item,:system.current_record,height,50);
But this didn't work as the property for height couldn't be used with this built in..
Can any one tell me any other suggestion to move around
Thanks and best regares

If you just have two sizes to display - e.g. normally the item is 1 line high but in the current item you want to show more information and want to make it say 2 lines high, then you can use a Mirror item to do this.
Create another item in the block - set the Synchronize With Item property to the base item you want to "Resize".
Set the Records Displayed property to 1 for this extra field.
Put this field on a stacked canvas that is just big enough to hold it.
The in your When-New-Record Instance trigger you can pop the stacked canvas up over the normal version of the field.
That should do the trick.

Problem in displaying records in multi record block

Hi all,
I have a problem in displaying records in a multi record block in a form.
I have 1 control block and 1 data block(multi-record block).
Control block has one item CUSTOMER-ID. Data block has many other items related to customer.
when a value is entered in customer-id text item, all the relavant details should be displayed in the data block.
but, the records are overlapping in the same line in the data block, actually they have to be displayed one record per one line.
The code is,
IF :CUST_BLOCK.CUST_ID IS NOT NULL THEN
GO_BLOCK('XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS');
FOR C1 IN C
LOOP
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CUST_ID:=c1.site_use_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CAT_ID:=c1.ipc_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.MFG_ID:=c1.mfg_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.INVENTORY_ITEM_ID:=c1.inventory_item_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_BASIS:=c1.price_basis;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_FACTOR:=c1.price_factor;
END LOOP;
Please help me out..
Thanks in advance!
Suman

Hi Suman
IF :CUST_BLOCK.CUST_ID IS NOT NULL THEN
GO_BLOCK('XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS');
first_record;
FOR C1 IN C
LOOP
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CUST_ID:=c1.site_use_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.CAT_ID:=c1.ipc_category_id;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.MFG_ID:=c1.mfg_category_id;

:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_BASIS:=c1.price_basis;
:XBSI_CONTRACT_PRICE_FACTORS.PRICE_FACTOR:=c1.price_factor;
next_record;
END LOOP;
Try this. you are trying to show all the records in same line. so its overlapping.

Check box in a multi record block

I have a multi record block that has a check box. I need to be able to go to the first record on the block, go through each row and check to see if it's selected. I will then get all the rows that were selected and passed it as a parameter in a package.I have already declared a global variable in the package to get all the rows selected.
Can anyone please help.

Hi
This is my solution for your problem. If I understand correctly as you have to post the selected records from form to journal entry (a server operation). What you need to do is in your Oracle Forms multi record block construct a loop which goes from first record to last record of your data block, capture the selected records (wherever the check box is CHECKED ON) into a PL/SQL table structure (PL/SQL table is quite simillar to Oracle Forms RECORD GROUP structure, but more versatile as it can be recognized on the back end too).
Once you populate the PL/SQL table with the selected record, pass the PL/SQL table itself as parameter to your package.
Open the PL/SQL table in your destination code and do further processing with those selected records !!
Hope this will work !!

Setting background color in multi record block

Hi all!
I've a table with around 150 records of colors with html-color-names and rgb codes.
I would like to have a sample item in my form 9.0.4 to display the color as a preview for
each record in a multi-record block when querying the table.
I would not like to create a visual attribute for each color. So display_item() is no choice.
(except: somebody show me how to create va's with the japi)
Somebody knows a way to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance and regards
Stauder

Here's a solution which should work :
1. Use a mirror item for the numeric item which has to
be displayed
using the format mask based on value in column1
The data type of the mirror item : Char
X and Y co-ordinates : Same as the item
on which it is
mirrored
Size and Height : Same as the item
on which it is
mirrored
2. On normal display, Mirror item is displayed
3. When Mouse-Click or Pre-Text Item trigger on the
Mirror Item :
- Use the Go_Item ('Actual Numeric Item');
This will bring up the Numeric Item and the Mirror
item goes in hiding
- A VWI trigger on Numeric Item should Then be :
If ( :col1 = 'A' ) Then
:Mirror_Item :=
To_char(:NumericItem, ',999,999.99');
Else
:Mirror_Item :=
To_char(:NumericItem, '99999999');
End If;
4. A key-Next-Item (On Numeric Item) or other trigger ??
should then
use Go_Item (:Mirror Item) to bring forward the
formatted numeric item

Check duplicate data entry in multi record block,which is a mandatory field

Dear all,
I have a situation where i have to check duplicate data entry(on a particular field,which is a mandatory field,i.e. it cannot be skipped by user without entering value) while data key-in in a Multi Record block.
As for reference I have used a logic,such as
1>In a When-Validate-Record trigger of that block I am assigning the value of that current item in Table type variable(collection type)
as this trigger fire every time as soon as i leave that record,so its assigning the value of that current time.And this process continues
then
2>In a When-Validate-Item trigger of that corresponding item(i.e. the trigger is at item level) has been written,where it compares the value of that current item and the value stored in Table type variable(collection type) of When-Validate-Record trigger.If the current item value is matched with any value stored in Table type variable I am showing a message of ('Duplicate Record') following by raise_form_trigger failure
This code is working fine for checking duplicate value of that multi record field
The problem is that,if user enter the value in that field,and then goes to next field,enter value to that field and then press 'Enter Query 'icon,the bolth Validate trigger fires.As result first when-validate record fires,which stores that value,and then when-validate-item fires,as a result it shows duplicate record message
Please give me a meaningful logic or code for solving this problem
Any other logic to solve this problem is also welcome

@Ammad Ahmed
first of all thanks .your logic worked,but still i have some little bit of problem,
now the requirement is a master detail form where both master and detail is multirecord ,where detail cannot have duplicate record,
such as..........
MASTER:--
A code
A1
A2
DETAIL:--
D code
d1
d2 <-valid as for master A1 , detail d1 ,d2 are not duplicate
d2 <--invalid as as for master A1 , detail d2 ,d2 are duplicate
validation rule: A Code –D Code combination is unique. The system will stop users from entering duplicate D Code for a A Code. Appropriate error message will be displayed.*
actually i am facing a typical problem,the same logic i have been applied in detail section ,its working fine when i am inserting new records.problem starts when i query,after query in ' a ' field say 2 records (i.e. which has been earlier saved) has been pasted,now if i insert a new record with the value exactly same with the already present value in the screen(i.e. value populated after query) its not showing duplicate.................could u tell me the reason?and help me out...............its urgent plzzzzzzzzz

FETCHING VALUES IN MULTI RECORD BLOCK FROM ANOTHER TABLE USING SELECT STATEMENT.

Hi,
I have one multi record block in which i want to fetch values
(more then one record) from another table using select statement
IN KEY NEXT ITEM.I am getting following error.
ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
Thanks in advance.

In your case I see no reason to use non-database block and to try to populate it from a trigger with a query, instead of using the default forms functionality where you can associate the block and the fields with table, create where clause using bind variables and simply use execute_query() build-in to populate the block. The power of the forms is to use their build-in functionality to interact with the database.
Also, you can base your block on a query, not on a table and you dynamically change this query using set_block_property() build-in. You can use any dynamic queries (based on different data sources) and you simply need to control the column's data type, the number of the columns and their aliases. Something like creating inline views as a block data source.
However, you can replace the explicit cursor with implicit one like
go_block('non_db_block_name');
first_record();
FOR v_tab IN (SELECT *
FROM tab
WHERE col_name = :variable)
LOOP
:non_db_block_name.field1 := v_tab.col1;
:non_db_block_name.field2 := v_tab.col2;
next_record();
END LOOP;
