Text item consumption values

Can we know the total consumption of a text item in a bom over a period of time.
Or can we know the consumption values of a phantom assembly
Or is there a bom item which is not to be stocked , but thier quantity in bom multiplied with the order quantity could be displayed over a period of time.

Text items and phantom items are never consumed and hence you will never see it in any consumptipon report. You may have to build custom report if needed ( or change the item to be standard).

Is there a way to obtain the text item's value when the mouse pointer at?

Hi,
Is there a way to obtain the text item's value when the mouse pointer at? Mouse pointer may be located somewhere out of current record and even out of current block.

There is a when-mouse-over trigger and that works fine in client-server mode for Forms 5/6/6i, but that is less indicated when deployed using Application Server.
In that trigger you may write whatever code is necessary, restricted package procedures.
Still, I think, for your case, if you do not have to deal with a multi-record block, you should use the HINT property for that item and set_item_property with the HINT argument for that item in order to set the hint to the item's value - this should set_item_property should be called on the when-new-record-instance .

Form text item initial value not taking effect

Hello,
Sorry for the simple question, but I'm at a loss.
I'm trying to present a system date on my form using $$DATE$$ as the initial value of a text item. The form will not display it. Am I running up against a bug, or is there a block setting that might be getting in the way? Possibly an OAS issue? The item is in a control block, and the form is insanely simple. It makes use of menu as well.
Any help is appreciated,
Jim

I tried setting the initial value to $$DATE$$ in a control block item in Forms 10g (9.0.4), and it worked fine. I think the online help is referring to creating a record in a block (not the database), which happens in a control block as well as a base table block.
Not sure what version of Forms you are using, but in the unlikely chance that you're still on 6.0, there are some bugs (1046279, 2970983) filed on 6.0 about the initial value not displaying when the text item is subclassed from an object library. If that's what you're experiencing, you should be able to fix it by upgrading to 6i.

How can i back to Text Item ???

i have TextItem
. in Post_Item Trigger i am Checking the value in Text Item
With Value in DataBase and Get Other Data Related by this value into another Text Item.
if value not Found in dataBase how can i came back to Text_item to change the value .
like text item contain code and return Name into another TextItem
if code not found do not leave TextItem.

First of all, do NOT do validation like that in a post-text-item trigger. You are needlessly running validation every time the user tabs through the field.
You should be putting validation ONLY in a when-validate-item or when-validate-record trigger. They only run if the value has been changed.
And any time you issue an error message, it must always be followed by RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;

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.

Multiple values from database on a single text item

i am trying to do the following
on a single text item in a form
(under form property pallete->records->number of items displayed is 5) run a triger "when-new-block-instance" with the following pl/sql statement
declare
menu_item VARCHAR2(35);
begin
select label into menu_item
from menu_options;
end;
however, once i run the form it gives me
WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger raised unhandeled exception ORA-01422
however, if in the pl/sql statement contains only
begin
execute querry;
end;
then it works fine
The problem i beleive is the fact that the first querry retreives multiple values or recordset instead of A record.
How can i go arond this and allow the form to list all the values in this form. Eventually i will need to add conditional SQL statments and that is why just execute querry will not work.
Also, is there a way to dynamically assign a number to "number of records shown" property?
All help is very much appreciated!

Hi, Marko
I teach Forms, and I usually find a bad idea to use SQL statements directly (in particular when you can "make" Forms to do what you want).
Inside PL/SQL, a SELECT..INTO statement is supposed to select a single row, otherwise an error occurs.
EXECUTE_QUERY works.
If by "conditional SQL statements" you mean restricted (filtered) queries, you don't need to write SQL to do this.
You can set the DEFAULT_WHERE block property to a different value before using EXECUTE_QUERY, like:
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('your_block', DEFAULT_WHERE, 'where menu_id > 100');
And the answer to your second question is no, you cannot dynamically change the number of records a block is displaying.
You can limit the number of records your block queries from the database table using Maximum Records Fetched block property (available in Forms 6 and above, not sure about Forms 5). However, this will only work as expected if you set Query All Records to Yes.
Hope this helps,
Pedro

How i can assign multiple values to tabuler text item (Help)

HI
IM PROGRAMMING ONE FORM AND I PUT THERE TABULER TEXT ITEM
I WANT ASSIGN 63 VALUES TO THIS TEXT ITEM ONE BY ONE BY CODE I MEAN PUT FIRST VALUE IN THE FIRST TEXT ITEM ROW THEN SECOND TO THE SECOND TEXT ITEM AND LIKE THIS UNTIL I REACH TO THE LAST
I MAKE LOV PUT I CAN ASSIGN ONE VALUE BY ONE VALUE EACH TIME DOUBLE CLICK ON THE TEXT ITEM ASSIGN ONE VALUE THEN DOUBLE CLICK ON THE SECOND ROW PUT MY BOSS WANT ASSIGN ALL VALUES 63 FROM ONE CLICK ON BUTTON

Then you will have to create a when-validate-item trigger with a cursor based on your selection of your LOV . Loop through that cursor assigning the next in the next record by using the built-in function next_record. (put you selection for you value in a hidden item for example.
something like this:
Declare
cursor c is
select returnValueFromLOV
from <yourtable>
where yourdisplay value = :hidden_tem;
begin
for r in c loop
next_record;
item := r. returnValueFromLOV;
end loop;
exception
when no_data_found
your error handling;
end;
Hope it put you on the road to reach what you want

Assigning LOV return Value to multiple text items

Hi all
I have a custom form on which i have 10 text items
text item 1,text item 2 ....text item10
I have a table xx_querywith fields
text_item,query
i have inserted into the xx_query table
insert into xx_query(text_item,query)
values(text_item1,'select sysdate from dual');
insert into xx_query(text_item,query)
values(text_item2,'select sysdate-1 from dual');
I have created a record group dynamically and i am getting the query from the query column of the xx_query table into the record group(say test_rg)
I have created a LOV test_lov and thr set_lov_property i have populated the test_rg query into the test_LOV
is it possible for me to set the return item of the LOV dynamically so that i can get the LOV on the item which i want to ?
thanks

Hi All
thanks for your responses
I have Created a control item and assigned the return value of the LOV to the control item
and i have assigned the LOV to the text item that i want
Currently when i navigate to the text item the LOV is visible
but when i select a value from the LOV the value is not getting populated into the text item
I have assigned the value of the control item to the text item
but i am not sure in which trigger to write the code so as when i select the value from the LOV the value should be shown on the form populating in the text item
Thanks

How to show value of COUNT_QUERY in a text Item?

please tell me how to show value of COUNT_QUERY in a text Item?

If you look a bit further down the thread Rosario posted, you might find the method DanielLiang posted to be easier to implement for you.
you can use calculation:
example :
Database Data Block: block1 ( Query All Records : Yes )
not Database Data Block : block2 (Single Record : Yes)
block2 has a text item (number) ,it calculation property :
calculation mode : summary
summary function : count
summarized block : block1
summarized item : item1(block1's item)

New lines created in excel when displaying multi-line text item value

Hi all,
I put the value of a multi-line text-item into a csv file :
DECLARE
file_filter VARCHAR2(256) := 'Export Files (*.csv)/*.csv/All Files (*.*)/*.*/';
fExp VARCHAR2(256);
in_file Text_IO.File_Type;
linebuf VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
fExp := get_file_name ( directory_name, file_name, file_filter, NULL, SAVE_FILE, TRUE);
IF fExp IS NOT NULL
THEN
set_application_property(cursor_style,'BUSY');
in_file := Text_IO.Fopen( fExp, 'W');
linebuf := NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.LIBEL_TRAITE,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.NUM_ANFR_ID,'') || ';' ||
                         NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.ver_fiche,'') || ';' ||
                         NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.titre,'') || ';' ||
NVL(to_char(:com_bnc_possibles.date_creat, 'dd/mm/yyyy'),'') || ';' ||
NVL(to_char(:com_bnc_possibles.date_valide, 'dd/mm/yyyy'),'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.LIBEL_STATUT,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.label_reg,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.nom,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.prenom,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.nom_societe,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.comp_bnc,'') || ';' ||
NVL(:com_bnc_possibles.motifs,'') || ';' ;
Text_IO.Put_Line( in_file, linebuf);
Text_IO.Fclose( in_file);
set_application_property(cursor_style,'DEFAULT');
END IF;
END;
And when I opened the csv file then the remaining lines , that is from the second line , of the column "motifs" are displayed through the column A of excel. The "motifs" multi-line text-item has 500 as its Maximum Length property value, and has a Char Data Type property value.
So how to display all the motifs' lines through the same column M without displaying the remaining lines in column A ?
Or are there tips to remove CHR(13) characters from a multi-line text-item ?
Thank you very much indeed.

How to check old and new value for a text item attached to a lov?

Hi,
I am new to Forms.
I need your help in following.
I have a form which has a text item which is attached to a LOV. I want to track what changes are being done using that form. So i want to know what was old value and what is new value.
I can get the new value as it is there in form field. how can i know what was the old value.
Thanks
Prashant Pathak

This is wrong:
name_in(':' ||l_audit_block.field_name)
this is right and will get you the current value of the the item:
name_in('l_audit_block.field_name');
Assuming the name of you block is "l_audit_block" and the name of your item is "field_name".
Please note name_in() returns your current value for an item. In your case this may or may not be the "old" value. I define "old" value as the value it was when it was queried. If that is what you are looking for you need to use the get_item_property() call that Steve described above.

How to keep values in text items.

Hi,
I have created a tabular form with report.out of this form Two items are converted to LOV'S(TEAM_LOV,TYPE_LOV) i.e TEAM_LOV for P4_TEAM item and TYPE_LOV for P4_TYPE item.
TEAM_LOV := select team d, team_id r from teams;
TYPE_LOV := select type d , type_id r from types where team_id=:P4_TEAM;
1. For P4_TEAM item is select list with redirect .
2. For P4_TYPE item is select list.
Problem:=
When i create a new record and enter new values in the text items above the P4_TEAM item and then selects the list of values from P4_TEAM then the values from the above text items gets clears . How to prevent the clearing the item values.
If i use select list with submit. then i have validation on two items so i gives validation errors.
Help !
Thanks,
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
I had the same problems and solved it with AJAX. then only the second list is updated and no submit or redirect is needed.
Otherwise you could set a condition for your validation, i.e. only if item is not null.

How to insert values using pushputtons in text item & fetch data based on

Dear friends,
I want to insert values in the Text item using pushbutton e.g to insert 05CST884 into text item using pushbuttons '0' '5' 'C' 'S' 'T' '8' '8' '4' (alpha numeric buttons) in the layout editor and then fetch data based on the number entered with that of one in the table in the another text item2 in the layout editor.
Suggestions regarding how to develop and use effective triggers are welcome.

At the block level (for the control block where all your push buttons are, let's call it block1) create a WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger. Your [A-Z] and [0-9] buttons should be on a dedicated non-database datablock to reduce problems. As stated previously, this trigger should just contain the code:
:block2.text_item := :block2.text_item||get_item_property(:system.trigger_item, label);
Also on the pushbutton block, create a backspacve button with its own dedicated WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger containing:
if length(:block2.text_item) > 0 then :block2.text_item := substr(:block2.text_item, 1, length(:block2.text_item)); end if;
This will hopefully erase the last character entered.
block2 should be based on the database table (see Property Palette --> Database) you wish to query and text_item should be based on the database item which contains the code you entered. All the other database items you wish to displayshould also be added to block2.
Add another FIND push button to block1 with the code:
go_block('block2');
execute_query;
Without writing the whole thing for you, I'd suggest you get a decent Forms tutorial book to guide you through the basics (Oracle Forms Developers Handbook).

Spaces removed when inserting a value into a text item

Dear members,
(Forms 6i c/s)
I have a databased function returning a string of characters (varchar2). This value can have spaces at its end.
When I put this value into a text item in Forms, the spaces at the end are removed.
How can I avoid that ?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
There is no elegant solution for this. Metalink has a discussion of the topic in note nr 247715.1
