  • SHOW STATUS BAR ON FORMS DISPLAYING ON OAS

    Hi when we worked with forms 6i an all of our forms we had the status bar at the bottom of the form that showed us any error that happend in the forms as the famous ora-xxxxxx.
    But when we migrated the forms to web we no longer see the status bar in the forms. This must be to some parameter in the formsweb.cfg file that we didnt set up right, so if anyone can point me to the right solution it would be really aprecciated.
    Thanks,

    If your form module includes a window for the console window, then I am wondering if maybe your the height and width that you have defined in your formsweb.cfg file is larger than the size of your window in forms. I just made the height of my formsweb.cfg three times the value that it was and you don't see the bar at the bottom unless you use the scroll bar to scroll way down, but it is still there you just don't notice it. Have you tried adjusting the width and height properties in formsweb.cfg? Is a scroll bar displaying in the browser?

  • Multiple status bars in forms 9i

    I have recently upgraded from forms 6i to 9i. I have removed some stuff (like the default menu). I am close to being done with this upgrade. I have one issue that I am having difficultly with. When I load my form, that form gets a status bar. I have a tabbed canvas and when I click on the next tab (which is a new form) the new form gets its own status bar. So, now I have a case where I have two status bars visible when I open a new form. The first forms status bar is still there after I load the new form. In forms 6i, I do not have this problem so it must be something new.
    Is there anything I can do about that? I really only need the status bar for the form I am using? When I exit the other form and return back to the first form, the status bar associated with that form goes away.
    Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated...

    clear the form level property called "console window".

  • User messgaes on status bar of forms

    Instead of the forms default messages lile

    Can anybosy help me in this.
    Thanks in advance

    You cannot suppress those messages, but what you can do is in the Forms property set the console window to null and create your own stacked canvas with a display_item or just a display_item in the main form and display your messages there. There will be a lot of coding required, but that is how you can do it.

  • Form path in call_form and compilation error and status bar.

    Dear all,
    what should be the path in the call_form?
    my forms (developed in form 6i) give error when i run it in forms 9i. i have already compiled. with the form 9i.
    the status bar is invisible when running in the browser.
    i am new to developer 9i.
    thanks
    Muhammad Nadeem

    Hi:
    When you call the forms in the subdirectories, you need to use the full path. Example:
    CALL_FORM('c:\forms\D1\some_form');
    Of course, you realize that this makes your forms less portable and could in the future cause more problems than it solves. Is there any reason you cannot just keep all your forms in one directory and possibly use a prefix to manage them if they belong to different sub-applications?

  • Forms 9i status bar?

    dear all,
    the form's status bar is invisible. when the form is started in browser from a remote computer.
    how to show the status bar?
    i want to show messages.
    thanks
    Muhammad Nadeem

    Hi, I found this on Metalink.
    Though your forms module contains Console_Window property set to a valid
    window but use of the Set_Window_Property and setting forms_mdi_window property
    to maximize causes this problem.
    Commenting out the following line of code will resolve the issue:
    Set_Window_Property(forms_mdi_window,window_state,maximize);

  • Forms status bar show BSC

    OAS : 10.1.2.3
    I've got a form with a menu attached and in the form status bar I see besides record : 1/1 also <BSC>
    Does anyone knows what this means ?
    I know I can hide the status bar by putting <null> in the console window, but I'll like to know where this comes from.

    Hi Hans,
    take your pick from these two Oracle explanations :
    How to Suppress in Statusbar [ID 252843.1]
         Modified 03-NOV-2006 Type HOWTO Status ARCHIVED      
    goal: How to suppress "< OSC >" or "< BSC >" in statusbar

    fix:

    What Are Acronyms , and That Appear On The Forms Status/ Message Line? [ID 1076485.6]
         Modified 28-FEB-2003 Type PROBLEM Status ARCHIVED      
    Problem Description:
    ====================
    What do the acronyms - OSC, BGM and DBG that come up in the Forms Runtime
    console window actually mean ??
    Problem Explanation:
    ====================
    When a form created with Developer 6.0 uses a custom menu, the console may show
    the following:
    <OSC> <BGM> <DBG>
    These are not displayed in Developer 2.1 or 1.6.1. They are not related to
    menu security, and so will appear even if no menu security is specified.
    Solution Description:
    =====================
    These symbols or lamps refer back to SQL*Menu version 5.0.
    The definitions can be found in SQL*Menu manual page 1-7.
    They are:
    <OSC> = Operating System Commands available.
    <DBG> = Debug
    <BGM> = Background Menu.
    This was logged as BUG:919591. The bug is now closed.
    These symbols have no meaning today and it is currently unknown why they have
    shown up in Developer version 6. For example, the Host pl/sql command
    has superceded the <OSC> menu macro.

    I have v. 3.6.8. It will display blank white pages at some site and not at others. I use safe mode and the access is reversed... what used to open doesn't and what didn't does. . .
    Is anyone trying to fix this problem - or are users just left to chasing their tails on this issue?
    Just curious ... in order to help me decide to wait for help or move on to something else...
    Until that time ... Earl J.

  • Status Bar and Title on Applet

    Hi,
    Is there any way I can get rid of the status bar from the applet that shows the form on the net ??? Also, I want to remove an oracle logo (title) which appears above the window. Anybody knows how to do it ???

    If you remove console window name from your forms property, you can get rid of the status bar from the applet.

  • Status bar in BUSY mode while displaying bean calendar

    Hi all
    Iam using 10g Forms running from 10gAS.
    We are using Java Bean Calendar for date picking.
    As bean components run from the client's applet, i suppose calling a calendar bean should not have any server communication.
    But while i call the calendar bean from my form, the status bar of the form window goes to BUSY mode until i select or cancel the calendar.
    I have to justify the reason for this to my client asap.
    So any help regarding this is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sriram

    Thanks Herbert, even i said the same to my client.But his question is "Whether the BUSY state just meant as waiting for user input or is there any middle tier communication that is happening from the form for the bean component.
    Tthanks again
    Sriram

  • STATUS BAR AT DIFFRENT POSITIONS

    Hi to all,
    i have the following problem:
    The first call to a form modul shows the status bar/message line at the bottom of the applet window.
    After exit_form and calling the same module again status bar/message line is shown at the
    bottom of the forms module window.
    In Forms 6i Patch 3a everything worked fine. Since Patch 9a and even in Forms
    9i i got this behaviour.
    In formsweb.cfg i use the following parameters:
    usesdi=yes
    HTMLbodyAttrs=TOPMARGIN=0 BOTTOMMARGIN=0 LEFTMARGIN=0 RIGHTMARGIN=0
    width=1000
    height=600
    separateFrame=false
    This parameters lets the forms applet window full fill the browsers window.
    In the first modul the console window is set to null, in the following one's
    the console window is set to the forms modul window(width=745 height=388). The
    canvas size inside the called modul is width=744 height=387. I tried with other
    sizes but still get the same behaviour.
    Does someone got the same error or may be a solution ?
    Thanks

    Hello Darryl.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
