Updating current record using SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY in a multi-record form

Hi,
I have a multi record form and am using the SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY method in the when validate trigger of an item. The problem is that it updates all records in the form instead of updating just the current record.
Any inputs to resolve this would be helpful.
Thanks

I cannot reproduce the issue here.
I have modified the sample dialog shipped with th article to have a block that displays 2 records
<p>See the screenshot here</p>
Here is the code in the When-Button-Pressed trigger:
Set_Custom_Property( 'BLZ.BEAN', 1, 'READIMGFILE', 'd:/coyote.jpg' ) ;
Set_Custom_Property( 'BLZ.BEAN', 2, 'READIMGFILE', 'd:/oracle_community.gif' ) ;So everything is ok for me.

Use value of multi record in LOV in same multi record

Hello,
I have created a multi record tabular form (report actually). Some fields are select lists with of course an LOV. I would like to use a value of each current row to use in the LOV to make it dynamic.
This is the where clause of the LOV:
and rda.tsr_code = :P1103_TSR_CODE (TSR_CODE is a column in the multi record)
But that is not working, it works when I use:
and rda.tsr_code = 'M' (but that is not very dynamic and I have to make numerous different LOV's...)
After reading several pages, I could not find a solution...
Anyone?

Hello Garcol,
Search the forum with Cascading LOV, Tabular Form. You will get lot of threads discussing on this.

SSIS: Merge Problem: the input is not sorted (for use in exporting a multi-record format file)

I am using the following useful article regarding exporting a multi-record file:
http://vsteamsystemcentral.com/cs21/blogs/steve_fibich/archive/2007/09/25/multi-record-formated-flat-file-with-ssis.aspx
I have created the 2 datasources, ordering each on a field commmon to both.
I have created the two derived columns headers and am now moving on to the merge.
It is failing with the following error:
"the input is not sorted"
And whilst I definitely have an order by on the query, when I look at the metadata between the datasource and the derived column, the Sort Key Position items displays "0" for all my fields, I was expecting the sort field to have a "1" in this column. What am I missing?
Any help would be most appreciated!

The thing to remember here is that the SSIS designer gets its metadata from the RDBMS - metadata like the column names, data types and sizes that describe the data being returned.
But the RDBMS metadata does not include anything about the sort order of the data.
If you have an ORDER BY clause in your source query, you need to accurately and appropriately set the IsSorted and SortKeyPosition properties in the Advanced Editor for your data source component. It is your responsibility as the package developer to ensure that you're giving SSIS the correct information. If you're not, you'll get the same errors you've posted here.

Cursor Jumping to last record when query mode for Multi-record block.

I have a multi-record block. the seq field has this validation to check that there should not be a gap

In the insert mode its working fine(unless you gurus feel to change to make it more perfect.
When I say enter-query and put 'IAS' in the s_type field and then do a execute query it brings all the records of 'IAS'.
Now as I want to update the records, and when I navigate across field(s_type,cer_dl,Seq,xyz) using tab and move the cursor down on second
record(IAS N 2 N), what happens is when I navigate to sequence field the cursor jumps to LAST RECORD( IAS Y 3 N ) of LAST field XYZ.
I am putting the sample record
s_type cer_dl seq xyz
IAS N 1 N
IAS N 2 N
IAS N 3 N
IAS N 4 N
IAS Y 1 N
IAS Y 2 N
IAS Y 3 N
The cursor moves to last record --IAS -Y -3-N when I tab across the second record.

When I say enter-query and put 'IAS' in the s_type field...For your validation to work you must not allow users to enter records in the middle of a block, clear records from the block or query specific records. If you allow the users to enter a query then you are allowing 2 of the rules to be broken.

Record level commit in a multi record block

Dear all,
i have a multi record block in my form (only one block)
after entring record the save buttons commites the form
if any error is raised then total commit processs stop for example if DUP_VAL_ON_INDEX is raised
what i want is that the form shoud act record level,i.e; it should commit record wise so that though a excepton is raised atleast record above that are commited.
thank U
Raj
mail : [email protected]

you can have non-database block and write "insert into <table>" statements for each row of block at when-button-pressed of 'commit' button. Commit after each row insertion. This will serve your purpose.

NiScope EX Multi Record vi program

Hi,
I have a question in niScope EX Multi Record.vi program. I was not explaining it well in my previous mail. That is why people can not answer my question. This time, I will explain clear.
Attached "abc" is my prgram with niScope EX Multi Record.vi prgram. This is my question. How come I can not get the waveform when I do the same action in the seond time? Here is how my prgram work. First, I press "reset" push button, the light will go off and press it again the light turn off. The prgram do nothing, just reset the value of the voltmeter and current meter. Second, I press the "enable" button, the voltmeter and current meter get reading since I have a subprgram under timeout in the event structure. Then, I press the "enable button" again to turn on the light. Third, I press the "bark button", my hardware will be shocked and output waveform, since I have a subprogram, niScope EX Multi Record.vi, I set the right parameter, I will get the "shock pulse waveform".
Everything looks good and working. Then I press the "bark" push button again to turn the light off. I want to do the same action the second time to see if the waveform of niScope EX Multi Record will generate again because normally I tried the same action the second time. the waveform will generate again. Here I am talking about I use the niScope EX Multi Record.vi prgram without anything and event structure and I did the same action as what I said in the above procedure. But, I did the same action in the second time in this "abc" vi program with niScope EX Multi Record. vi prgram, I could not get a new waveform, I don't understand why? could you please tell me what I did wrong? my niscope EX Multi Record.vi prgram is out of the event structure, what I see is like this prgram is alone just like the one I tried without event structure before. I am not sure if this single prgram mixed with event structure, it will be what? will it be different like I put two subprgrams in one block diagram even though I tried two subprgram put it together and it will work what it suppose to do. I am not very sure if ni scope EX Multi Record.vi prgram mixed with other prgrams with event struturem, what will happen? Will it be the same like two subprgram put it together? Could you please tell me exactly what if I put niScope EX multi record.vi with event structure including another program, what will happen? I would like to understand.

Hi Nyborn,
The changes of the graph color are controlled by the Waveform Graph property node on your block diagram. In the niScope EX Multi Record.vi example the Plot.Fill/PtColor value of the waveform graph property node is connected to a random generating number which changes the color on every execution. If you want to assign just one color, remove the random number vi and just wire a acii constant for the color you'd like. You can find listing of all acii color codes here.
I hope this helps.

Validity date of condition records (creation of info records using LSMW)

Hello gurus,
we would like to create info records using LSMW with one condition record (PB00). This works fine, we just are not able to influence the validity of the condition record, it's always "creation date until 31.12.9999".
We tried to maintain the fields BKONP-DATAB and BKONP-DATBI, but that did not change anything.
Any ideas on this?
Thanks
Alicia

Hello Jürgen
and thank you!
One additional question: When I import info records using LSMW, one condition record (PB00) is created automatically. Is it possible to change the validity of that condition record using LSMW, too? Or can I only create new condition records?
Thanks again
Alicia

Inserting record using form does not work. Please Help

I am trying to insert a record using INSERT INTO command in a form followed by commit.
I put the command in when-button-press trigger( I use a button to initiate insert into table command).
But it does insert the record into the table.
Then I try to ignore the INSERT INTO command and only use COMMIT, and it works.
But when I use control block, I can not use commit only to insert into table.
Is there anything that I have missed ?
PLease help. I had tried to solve this fora week.
Thank you, I really appreciate any response.

Setting your block as a datablock with source as a specified table and a number of items connected to specified columns gives you direct access to your table. Thus your commit alone will work. The second you change this to a control block, you cut your connection to the table. Thus you must use an insert into statement followed by a commit. By the way, when you use a commit statement, it processes exactly like a commit_form inbuilt function.
Hope this helps,
Dave

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

Saving the record in multi-record block while updating

Hi gurus
I have a table name PT . Its is master table where PT_TYPE IS unique
desc PT
PT_TYPE VARCHAR2(2) unique,
PT_CODE VARCHAR2(4),This is the detail table on which the form is being designed is meant for insert/update/delete.Insert and delete are working fine.
desc PST
PST_PT_type varchar2(2) unique,
PST_A_code Varchar2(3) unique,
PST_A_desc varchar2(10) The form layout is a multi-record form as below and based on PST table with PT_CODE as non-base table item & PST_PT_TYPE
not displayed but its there in the block.
FORM_LAYOUT
PT_CODE PST_A_CODE PST_A_DESC
ASD          AS          TESTAS
ASD          AD TESTAD
ASD DS TESTDS.
Now the problem is when I am querying record through enter-query mode (say by entering PT_CODE 'ASD') and
change one of the base table items(PST_A_CODE or PST_A_DESC) values and commit it. its says '1 records applied and save'
but when I change ONE OF THE PT_CODE(non-base table item) values it says 3 records applied and saved. as the 3 records
are currently displayed when querying

Hi Craig,
Both below program unit is in the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM of NBT item PT_CODE
--this is to check that valid pt_code is entered
PROCEDURE val_pt_code IS
     cursor val_cur is
     select pt_code

     where pt_code =:pst.pt_code;
v_dummy varchar2(12);
BEGIN
open val_cur;
fetch val_cur into v_dummy;
if val_cur%notfound then
close val_cur;
     warn_alert('Error:The Product Code entered does not exists');
     raise form_trigger_failure;
end if;
close val_cur;
END;
--this is to check that particular pt_type value is for the pt_code is selected
PROCEDURE get_pt_type IS
     v_pt_type varchar2(2);

     where pt_code = :pst.pt_code;
     :pst.pt_type := v_pt_type;

Set "current" or "active" record in multi-record Report or Form

Im trying to use HTML DB for the following:
Display a multi-record Report (or Form);
Mark one of the displayed records as "active" or "current", saving its PK/UK or rowid into a variable/field;
After that, select a function/process to be performed on or on the basis of this "active" record.
This is very similar to what is possible in 10g Grid Control, when, for example, you dislay (Administration/Tables) a list of tables (in a schema),
"select" one of the displayed tables, and then request, for example, to view the data in that table.
The question is, how do I define/attach the "Select" field (single-valued radio) to each of the displayed record in my multi-record Report or Form ??

Dynamic update if multi-record list item.

I have a bunch of multi-record list items whose poplist I need to update with queried data at the WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE triggers,
At NEW-FORM-INSATNCE trigger I queried and filled all the poplists with no problem. The problem occurs at the WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE triggers.
I have a clear_list() before each add_list_element() from a runtime record group. The problem is that the poplists at the cursor record is updated correctly, when I click on the same list item at other records, the list repeats -- meaning (probably) it was not cleared before being populated. Is there a way to either (1) just populate the list item of the current record, or (2) clear all records of a list item before all records are populated.
I tried copy( NULL, current_ilist ) where current_ilist is the item name before add_list_element(), but I got errors because the list items are required fields. Besides, the item has queried data in it.
I'm thinking about changing the item property to optional, save the item value, set it to NULL, populate its poplist, restore it's original value and then change the item property back to "required'. I don't know if it would work but is there a more elegant way of doing it?
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

No base table multi record block...updation

hello all,
i have a multi record block with two fields order & datetime to capture the time of the order. but this block is not based on any table. and i want to update another table with the datetime based on the order captured.
how to do that...? there may be n number of records coming into the block at a time.
thx in adv.
Kris

the best way is make it as a database block .and palace your insert statement in pre-insert trigger when you are inserting the record and place your update trigger in pre-update trigger u can also place your insert and update statement in back end, "i prefer the backend triggers").I think this is the best way because if you are using the go_block and next_record, that may take lots of time time to traverse record by record.

Multi-record report: content LOV depending on value of current row

I have a multi-record report based on a query.
For each row in the report it should be possible to choose a value from lov.
The content of the lov is depending on a field in the current row.
Later on I will update a record based on the chosen value but that is not the
issue right now.
The problem I am facing is that I don't know how to refer in a list to a value
from the current row.
For example.
In the example below it should be possible to choose (from the lov) a best buddy for
an employee. The buddy should be an other employee working for the same department.
So in the lov I must refer to the deptno from the current row. How is this possible???
select empno
, ename
, deptno
, htmldb_item.select_list_from_query
( 1
, empno
, 'select ename, empno from emp where deptno = #deptno# '
) buddy
from emp

Hi Scott,
I've created this application "TestLov" at the site you mentioned.
Application ID : 800
Workspace Name : ANUWKSPC
The first page has an employee report with the solution as suggested by Raju Mattamal in this thread. That query seems to work fine without any errors...(I'm surprised why I'm getting errors on my application with the same query, even though data appears?! Is it to do with some setting?)
The second page has the report with my actual query. This is throwing errors.
On the third page I've tried to implement the solution you've suggested in Tips & Tricks section of HTML DB Studio(Simulating a correlated sub-query in report LOVs)
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=18326:54:2188928890822530056::::P54_ID:1282
This doesn't seem to work either.
I'm unable to figure out the problem.
Pls look into the application and let me know how I shld go abt this.
Thanks in advance,
Anu
