And when i enter the same data in next record i.e 3rd record it should not allow to checkbox for 3rd record.This should be the frond end validation in oracle forms .
My requirment looks like this
A B C --> columns in oracle forms
1 ab ab --> checkbox checked

hello
Change/ modify the properties of the check box item;
for the check boxes :
1. Make the data type of the check box as number;
2. fill the functional a.)value when check = 1 b.) value when uncheck = 0;
3. add new item to summarize the value of the checkbox;
change properties of the new added item
datatype number;
calculation summary
summary function :- sum
summarize block :- your block
summarize item :- your check box item.
used :----> when checkbox change trigger
if nvl(:item_summry,0 > 2 and //double entry of data then
your code......
.... message..
raise..
else
your code.....

Text Item Validation in Oracle Forms 6i

Dear All Seniors
Please guide that how to do validation on text fileds in oracle FORMS 6i.
I have form like that
table name= emp
columns:
Code, Name
Code is auto generationg and Name field manually data typed.
now if
code, Name
1 Asim
2 Asim // it should not take .
please help.

Hi,
You mean it should not take dupliate names or it should not take "//"
If you have a set of character that should not be there for this field try using instr function. You can check if the field contains any character you don't want to be included in the name field.
If instr(:name,'A') > 0 then
message('xxxxxxx');

Validations in Oracle Forms 6i

Hi,
Can anybody please let me know how do we use phone and email validators in Oracle Forms 6i for textitem.
and what is the format for phone and email and how do we create.

hi
you can validate the format of an email in the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger
by using a function stored in the db that checks if the format of the email is correct
for example :
FUNCTION is_valid_email(i_email IN VARCHAR2) RETURN BOOLEAN
IS
v_dummy NUMBER := 0;
BEGIN
SELECT 1 INTO v_dummy
FROM dual
WHERE regexp_like(i_email,'^[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+(\.[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4})$');
RETURN TRUE;
EXCEPTION
WHEN no_data_found THEN
RETURN FALSE;
WHEN others THEN
RETURN FALSE;
END is_valid_email;
you can also use regexp for the validation of a tel number
I hope that helps you.

Is LOV able to do real validation like Oracle Forms LOV?

Dear JHeadstart Team,
I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 and JHeadstart 10.1.3.2.52.
To simplify the situation, I explain the problem using scott schema.
I created a page on the emp table and used a LOV on the deptno and check the lov for validation for the lov. I changed the query of DeptLookupView (which lov uses) and added a where deptno <= 30 to that, so lov just showed the department with deptno <= 30.
Then, When I entered number 40 in the deptno field and pressed tab, the lov poped up with No rows found in that.I pressed the cancel button and the amount of deptno remained 40. I pressed Save and data successfully commited to database.
It seems to me a little strange. This capability exists in the Oracle form and when we use lov for validation in the Oracle form it does not permit us to enter a value which does not exist in the lov. I expected to see that functionality here too. Am I wrong or Is it a bug in JHeadstart?
If it is not a bug and this functionality is not supported in the JHeadstart, is there any way to achieve this functionality.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Navid

Navid,
It is not a bug in JHeadstart, it is intended behavior of ADF Faces. The ADF Faces valueChangesListener that we use to validate and display the LOV window only fires when the user-entered value changed, since the last time the listener fired. When you cancel the LOV and click the Save button the listener no longer fires.
Note however that you are implementing a business rule (deptno must be <- 30) in the view layer only, which is a bad practice. I suggest that you implement the same rule in Business Components and/or in the database.
This way, the user will get an error message when he tries to save a value > 30.

Decimal Point Validation in Oracle Forms 6i

One of my table has a column named interest. Data type of this column is number (4,1) so it can hold 99.9 and 100 both.
If user enters 9.99, oracle form accepts the values and rounds it to 10. When scale defined for this data type is 1 so user shouldnât be allowed entering 2 digits after decimal.
I would like oracle to give error stating that user can enter upto 1 decimal place only so 9.99 is invalid input. Is there any function in oracle form (D2k)that let you know how many digits user has entered after decimal?
Is there any function in oracle form (D2k) that let you know the length of input ?

Hi
Why don't u use Format mask property for the same,so it will not allow user for wrong i/p
alternatively use forms message to display pop-up .

Oracle forms standard/default menu - Record Delete option

Hi ,
Oracle forms provides a standard menu with the below options.
Action , Query , Block , Record , Help etc.
Under each of these Menu options there are sub options.
Eg: Under Record we have Previous , Next , Insert , Delete etc.
Can someone please tell me how to control this menu item options for different forms.
Eg: for 1 form i want to allow the Record - Delete option but for another form i dont want to give this option.
How to do this ??
Please help....
I tried to search for the solution but couldnt get the right answer. Hope someone will help me out here.
Regards,
SRT

Hello,
The Oracle Forms documentation states:
The Default menu is built-in to every form, and is not a separate menu module.
You cannot change the structure of the Default menu or edit the menu items it
displays.
If your application requires
unique menu functions, you must create a custom menu module and attach it to
your form.
If the internal default menu almost meets your needs, you can attach the
"menudef.mmb" approximation of the default menu to the form. You can then
rename and edit this menu.
You can download the demo version for 10g R2 and menudefs_10g.mmb is included with the demos.
http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/demos/Forms_Demos_10gr2.zip
You will get menudef_10g.mmb and menudefs_10g.mmb.
If needed check metalink note:
Differences between menudef.mmb and menudefs.mmb menu files. [ID 1081136.1]
Kind regards,
Alex

Opening a secure web page from oracle forms for credit card validation

Hi All,
I searched for the topic in the forms forum but couldn't find a solution.
Requirement: As per some compliance, our application cannot do a credit card validation from our forms application, instead we need to use a java code which a third party will provide ,it's an iframe (they say, i am layman when it comes to Java, don't know what is it), but they say that, within your forms application you call our iframe do the credit card validation over there get a token of response back from us and use this token as a confirmation in your application.
Problem: I could not find a solution anywhere wherein i can call a web page from forms. Now, this web page should be modal, i.e. unless i close this page i cannot access my forms application. Please guide me if anyone has done that.
Secondly if i could make it work, how will i communicate with this external web page, like getting back some token value and use it back in my forms application. I am completely clueless.
As we are using Oracle designer for generating forms, we cannot use a bean type thing as designer does not have the bean-item type defined!
Appreciate if anyone could provide me pointers for a solution to this problem statement.
We are on forms 9i -- Version 9.0.2.11.0
Edited by: the_wing_rider on Jul 8, 2011 5:10 AM

The simple way to do it is to use a PJC (java bean) + apache httpclient library..
If you have a webservice than you can use Axis library and wsdl2java to create java classes from wsdl.
also you can use httpclient library to simulate http protocol (request/response actions)..
(for example.. you have a credit card number.. you post this number to specified URL and then you parse the response from credit card validation server)..
Post here some documentation (specification) on how to call the credit card validation .. (maybe it's a secure webservice?)
Here you have a httpclient library documentation:
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/index.html
Also you can implement bean area in designer.. If you need help I can post here how we do it in our project..
also look here: Call webservice from PJC over https protocol

Null Validation in Tabular Form in APEX 4.2.2

Hi to all respected Gurus of this Forum!
Recently downloaded APEX 4.2.2. As we know that this version has some improved features and one is the best is i.e. *"Validation on Tabular Form".*
For test purpose I succeeded to apply validation on field of tabular form and I am not allowed to "SUBMIT" data as per Validation Rule.
But now, I want to customize that validation as per below logic.
If required field is null than a message-box should appear with two buttons , as under:
Blank field not allowed. Do you really want to submit? (Buttons should be = YES NO)
If user press "YES" then validation should be false and record should be saved
AND
If user press "NO" then no data should be submitted/inserted as per validation logic.
Please help. Your as usual cooperation is highly appreciated in advance.

Hello Sabine,
>> I read about enhanced validation in 4.1 and would love to get rid of g_f-programming.
The major “trick” is to associate the validation/process with a Tabular Form. On the first screen of both wizards, the first field is Tabular Form. You must select the tabular form on your page (currently there can be only one. In future versions this will change).
Another factor that might influence the behavior of Tabular Form validation/process is the new attribute of Execution Scope. Unfortunately, you must enter Edit mode to gain access to this attribute (i.e., it can’t be set directly from the Tabular Form create wizard). Set it according to your need.
The rest is very simple. You should treat your Tabular Form as a simple form, where every column header stands for a form item. The following is a very simple example of validating the SAL column:
if :SAL < 1500 then
return 'Sal Value is under 1500';
else
return null;
end if;In this validation I’m using the Function Returning Error Text type.

Arie.
