(Urgent) Extract Code From form 4.5

I would like to know if there is any way of extracting or exporting the code from a form created in forms 4.5, into text format.
The form is in the executable format .frx.

Antony,
If the form is in fmx format, there is absolutely no way you can retrieve the code.
Fmx format is a final format. No reverse is possible.
Good luck,
Pedro.

Retreiving all SQL source codes from forms

Hi,
Does anyone know how to retrieve source codes ( trigers,
procedures, etc.) from forms to put into a txt file ? I know I
can use the export option from the PL/SQL editor for individual
triger or procedure, but is there a way to retrieve all SQLs
from the form just at one time ?
Your help is very appreciated.
Thanks
Jessica

U can get a document of the Form in a text file. This will
contain all Objects properties, Triggers etc.To do this:
1. Open the Form Builder and the Form u want to document.
2. File - Administration - Object List Report.
Hope this helps.

How to extract code from text box in html format

"I have a text box. When the form is submitted I need to extract the data in html format. i.e. a string type variable needds to hold all html tags alongwith[b] the data."

A textbox submitted in a form delivers a String. What's inside is no issue. If you want to process it further, pick the tool of your choice, like an HTML parser.

DB-link is not connected from Forms 10g

Hi,
I have created the db-link(visdev) from mytest schema to APPS schema -- created successfully
->Login to mytest schema and ran the query: select * from all_objects@dblink -- Return values.
-> I have used the same dblink with below code from Forms 10g (Datablock - Pre-insert trigger)
cursor_handle := dbms_sql.open_cursor;
dbms_sql.parse(cursor_handle, 'select decode(object_type,''TABLE'',''T'',''VIEW'',''V'',null) col1 from all_objects'||'@'||db-link, 1);
dbms_sql.define_column(cursor_handle,1,col1,30);
execute_feedback := dbms_sql.execute (cursor_handle);
execute_feedback := dbms_sql.fetch_rows(cursor_handle);
dbms_sql.column_value(cursor_handle,1,col1);
Its throws error in Pre-insert trigger : select decode(object_type,'TABLE','T','VIEW','V',null) col1 from all_objects@db-link ---- Not return values -- error out
I found this error using log message.
Can you please help us... its very critical for us.

In terms of trying to debug this why don't you login to your schema and create a view:
create view testview as select * from all_objects@dblink
and deal with that instead?
(You would need to grant permissions to that view.)
I mean as a way to keep the complex dbms_sql out of the loop and look
more to permissions and schema issues. In the long term the view hard codes the structure and is
not a good solution if the structure changes. I just mean as a test.
BTW you know there is an all_objects already? Didn't know if you meant that literally or not.
You could not use that name.

Stripping out html from form submissions

My web developer is using the attached code to strip/disallow
html code from form submissions in an effort to prevent someone
from posting dangerous scripts or code via a form or blog.
Problem is, I DO want to at least allow people to post url
links to external content like youtube videos, their own webstes,
images etc.... Basically if it is something hosted AND viewed on a
site other than mine I would like to give them the ability to link
to it. How could I edit the code to allow links of this nature or
is there a better way to do this?
My developer has basically told me there is no other way. It
is either disallow it all or open it up. I disagree with this and
am looking for a 2nd opinion.

url links are not html.
Regular expressions are not my strength, but it looks like
that function is simply replacing sets of angle brackets with empty
strings.
In other words, if your users submit
http://somesite.com, that will not
be affected by the function. However, if they submit <a href="
http://somesite.com">, it will be
transformed to href="
http://somesite.com". In either
case, it will be text, not a link.

VERY URGENT!! How to Pass a "% " symbol from form to Report

Hi
I am using oracle 10g and passing a symbol "%" as a parameter to the report from a form. But it shows error as follows:
REP-52006: Failed to decode the specified URL PARAMETER1=%.
But it is working when it runs in the Report directly.
Then Why we can't pass the symbol "%" to the report from form.
Please reply me as soon as possible. IT IS VERY URGENT !!

Hi,
Try using a lexical parameter(&parm_1) for a string of values or a bind parameter(:parm_1) for a single value

I Need Help to Access The Source Code From A Form to Know the Calculation Formula

Hi,
I Need Help to Access The Source Code From A Form to Know the Calculation Formula. The application is a windows form application that is linked to SQL Server 2008. In one of the application forms it generates an invoice and does some calculations. I just
need to know where behind that form is the code that's doing the calculations to generate the invoice, I just need to get into the formula that's doing these calculations.
Thank you so much.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. This is a view and [AmountDue] is supposed to be [CurrentDueAmount] + [PastDueAmount] - [PaidAmount]. The view is not calculating [PaidAmount] right . Below is the complete code of the view. Do you see anything wrong in the code ?

Need to pre-populate and Extract data from static PDF form

Hi Jasmin or Jayan or anyone else that can answer.
I have a requirement to use Digital Signatures. Because of that, the forms must be static PDFs and the form variables will be “document form”. I want to pre-populate the form via an SQL query and custom render process and render it as PDF so that the submitter can apply a digital signature when he/she is done and ready to submit for approvalSubsequent approvers will also digitally sign the form. I know that I will specify the custom render to render only once and thereby preserve the signature(s) on the form. I do, however, need to extract data from the form to control the business process. I cannot access the data in the form the same way I do with an xdp and I also cannot pre-populate the same way I do with an xdp.
Any suggestions on how to attack this?

Parth, one problem with your approach is he will submit PDF and therefore you won't be able to put the PDF in a variable that's suppose to contain just xml.
The prepopulation should be the same. If you start off with an xdp, then you will call a render service that merges data with your xdp to create a PDF.
Now when you submit, you will submit the entire PDF back in the Document Form variable. In Workbench, you can use the FormDataIntegration service to extract data from that PDF that's being stored under Document Form var/object/document and put it in an xml variable. Then you can just use xPath to do your condition.
I'm assuming you'll just pass that same Document Form variable to the next step, because if you do any change to the PDF it'll brake the signature.
Let me know if I missed anything.
Jasmin

Extracting data from dynamic forms

I am new to using Livecycle and see the advantages of using dynamic forms for collecting data. I have designed several dynamic forms which include rows with 6 to 9 text fields and may be completed with 10 to 100 rows. I have had to use text fields for collecting numeric information as many of the references start with zeros (003456).
Whilst Acrobat Pro provides for Livecycle dynamic forms to be enabled for Acrobat Reader filling and saving is extracting to Excel the best option available if you do not have the Enerprise version of Livecycle?
One problem I have in using Excel is that whilst the completed PDF documents capture the leading zeros, when I view the Excel spreadsheet the lead zeros have been lost. I have experienced this problem in importing Excel files into Access. To overcome this I usually create five lead rows with characters in all the fields that I want Excel to define as text - otherwise it processes them as numerics.
Any better ways of extracting data from a hundred or so dynamic forms?

Hi,
your problem is not the exported data, it's Excel that drops the leading zeros by default.
You can use a custom pattern to keep the leading zeros.
0#### will display intergers with up to 5 places with a leading zero.
Value:           Displayed Value:
012               012
12345          12345
0045             0045
Here an example video for telephone numbers.

Data extract/convert from SAP system and load to Unix system - Urgent

Hi,
I have a requirement that I need to extract data from SAP and each data field will have some conditions and need to map/Load it to the Legacy Unix system.
there are four kinds of data objects of HR system, need to extract them individually and map those into Unix system.
Can anyone please suggest me step-by-step how to go about it....like
do we need to write a report for that?
do we need to use Function modules? etc.,
How to set mappings of that Data to a file?
How to map that file to Unix system?
Need to run those on daily basis and after first run, only changed data file need to be loaded. how to do this?
thanks
Alankaar
rewarded with the points.

Hi
I can't say this becouse I don't the problem, anyway u have to do it by yourself.
U should create:
- a document where u define the file format: data type, size and name of the field of the unix system;
- a document for the mapping: link between SAP fields and Unix system fields
Based on these document you'll create a structure on the report:
DATA: BEGIN OF STR_UNIX_SYSTEM,
             FIELD1 ...,
             FIELD2 ...,
             FIELDN....,
           END OF STR_UNIX_SYSTEM.
and the code to transfer the data from SAP to legacy:
MOVE: <SAP TABLE>-FIELD TO STR_UNIX_SYSTEM-FIELD1,
So all steps have to be defined in the report before downloading the file.
So I don't know which legacy system you're speaking about, after creating the file the legacy should read it in order to upload the data.
U can create a daily job for that report, if you need to transfer the changed data only you should read the change document table (CDHDR and CDPOS) but I don't know HR so I'm not sure these tables are available for HR.

Extracting data from a pdf form

Hi,
livecycle es2, workbench 9.0
I'm new to workbench and have a problem extracting data from a pdf form submitted to a short lived process.
I have set up the following very simple process :
default startpoint > ProcessForm > exportData > set value > set value > Write Document
The intention is to update the document and write it to disk. So far, each step works except for the 'export data' where I cannot get the pdf to extract to xml.
The Input to the 'export data' step is a variable (myDoc), Data Type: Document, created from the incoming PDF form.
If I write out myDoc it is an exact copy of the incoming document, so I guess the start and finish steps of of the process are OK.
The incoming (PDF) form I was given had no data schema, but I thought I could access the form data by exporting to an xml variable....
Service : FormDataIntegration / exportData
input (PDF Document)    variable : myDoc
output(Data extracted)     variable : myXMLData
Then in the next step (set value) access the xml element I am after ..
Mappings
Location: /process_data/@groupId      Expression: /process_data/myXMLData/xdp/datasets/data/form1/mainPage/groupId
This is did not work, so I got the incoming form, exported the form data to an xml file, and created a schema using Stylus Studio. I then imported that into the myXMLdata definition. ( BTW - Do I need to specify the root node after importing it ? )
Still not working !
Extra info : The XML view of my incoming form shows I have a minimal dataset definition- is this OK ??
<connectionSet xmlns="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-connection-set/2.8/">
   <?originalXFAVersion http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-connection-set/2.4/?></connectionSet>
<xfa:datasets xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">
   <xfa:data xfa:dataNode="dataGroup"/>
</xfa:datasets>
The schema created by stylus studio has none of the xfdf, xfa settings I have seen on other schemas - is this OK ?
Any help to get this fixed greatly appreciated
thanks
steve

hey thanks for the offer, but I am now sorted after I found a simple working example on line.
This is a similar process to the one I am working on, and is clearly described and easy to follow...
