UTL_FOPEN is not working in 10g forms.

Hi...
I am using following code to open a file in write mode in forms 10g.
mfile_id := SYS.UTL_FILE.FOPEN('PERFDATA','text.txt','w');
( PERFDTA is a directory object.)
When i run form this gives the error, ORA-04067.
But same code works in pl/sql.
Can any one help me regarding this.
Thanks in advance,
Kumar

uhm...why using utl_file?!? Is there any special circumstance why u have to use this? This package is for use in stored procedures only...You don't even use dbms_sql instead of exec_sql in forms either, huh?
* Files which are on the database server and should be read by pl/sql packages => utl_file
* Files which are on the Middle Tier and should be read by Forms => text_io (syntax is similar to utl_file)
* Files which are on the client => webutil...
if you want to read files which are on the database server in forms, you can just put the logical part into a pl/sql package on the database and use this...???

Christian

Update process does not work on Tabular Form

Hello,
I have 2 tabular forms on one page, which are using manual update processes.
First form is created using wizard, and therefore works perfectly.
The update process is as follows:
DECLARE
lc_string VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_f01.COUNT
LOOP
     lc_string := lc_string|| '[' ||APEX_APPLICATION.G_f*03*(i) || '|' || APEX_APPLICATION.G_f*04*(i) || ']';
END LOOP;
--Database processing using the concatenated string here
END;Second form is created manually, using the following code:

                           '#ROWNUM#',

END LOOP;
--Database processing using the concatenated string here
END;Also, both forms are opening in a modal pop-up dialog window.
I use a Dialog Region plug-in for that.
Please advise, what is causing a problem with update?

Sloger,
if this is your tabular form
SELECT apex_item.checkbox (30,
...and this is your update statement
FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_f*30*.COUNT
...Then you will only ever update records that have been checked. Unchecked checkboxes are not passed back in the global array. You need to have a hidden column with the ID's for the record and loop through that when you are updating/inserting. That is why the built in tabular form has a MRU and a MRD. the MRU loops through the hidden ID column. The MRD loops through the checkbox.
Thanks,

Form is not working of multiple form check boxs, source posted. HELP.

Form is not working of multiple form check boxs, source posted. HELP.
I'm trying to have golive form be able to check one, two or all of the options in Graphics field.
As is it will only post results from the last checked box.
Here's the page
http://www.perfection-press.com/Pages/ContactForm.html
Here's where source in golive has scanning,design,filesupplied.
[code removed to fix forum topic display]

Since the checkboxes all have the same name, the values are over-writing each other when being passed to the PHP script. The best way to fix that is to add a pair of empty square [] brackets after the checkbox names, so make the names "graphics[]" instead of "graphics". That tells PHP that the values are being passed as a list (an array) instead of a single value. As long as your processing script knows what to do from there (and it does), should solve the problem.
By the way, I noticed that two of the checkboxes were named "graphics" and the other was "graphic" (singular). You'll want to fix that too so they're all the same.

F11 (query mode) not working in payment form in AP

Dear All,
F11 function not working in Payment form in R12.
I made a payment and quit the form. Whem am trying to query the payment invoice to void it. F11 functionality is not working.
Could anyone tell me the solution?
Regards
Deeps.

Hi Ivruksha,
Thanks for your response.
This issue is due to personalization done in payment form to default the payment date. First we defaulted the payment date once we open the form and faced issue in Quering a payment.
Now we did a change in personalization to default after selecting the Trading Partner and rectified the issue.
Regards,
Deeps.

Oracle Forms 10G not working as Oracle Forms 6i

Hi everyone,
I have a form which gets called from another form through a list of value. The called form(second form) has a group of tabbed canvases which get displayed depending on the parameters passed from the first form.
The Form is working prefectly fine in Forms 6i but when I converted the same form in to forms 10G it does not seem to work the same way. The tabbed canvasses are not getting displayed. I am manually having to press the execute query to get data displayed in the tabbed canvasses. I checked the parameters that are being passed and they are the same as that in Forms 6i.
Please let me know where my 10G Form is going wrong. Appreciate your help, please send me an email on [email protected]
Thanks

:System.message_level has nothing to do with how you check the flow of execution, or whether you use the Message statement. :System.Message_Level is a Forms variable that can be set to a numeric value. If you set it > 0, it hides error messages, which you should NOT do. Is there anywhere in your form where it is set? If there is, make sure it is set to zero while you are testing.
<P>Since you are using regular message statements to debug (Re: Zdebug -- Download a Forms debugging message tool), you should determine if the process that sets up the tabbed canvases is being executed.

Mouse Scroll Not Working in oracle forms

Hi,
I Created a master and detail block.. In Detail block following Properties i set
No. of Records to be displayed : 10
Scroll bar : no
Without having the scroll bar i wannt to check all the records in the detail Block.
for this i created key_scrolldown trigger in form levl called thye builtin
SCROLL_DOWN;
i'm using Oracle 10g.. JIniator for Running Oracle Forms
applying this Coding this function is not working..
Can anybody tell this How to oversome from this...???
Cheers.

What version of Oracle Forms are you using? You should always include this in your posts. :)
Mouse scrolling is only enabled in Web runtime of Forms - so you must be using Forms 9i or higher.
Does JRE Support mouse scrolling function?If memory serves, Mouse scroll was first introduced in Java 1.5.0. Therefore, if you want enble the mouse scroll wheel in Forms, you must be using JRE 1.5.0 or higher. I strongly recommend you use Java 1.6.0_33 or higher - but do not use Java 1.7.0 as it has not been certified with Oracle Forms yet.
In order to use the JRE over the Jinitiator, you must modify your configuration to enable use of the JRE. Please take a look at Oracle 10gR2 Forms Services – Using Sun's Java Plug-in. This Oracle White Paper is for Forms 10g Release 2, but the instructions are basically the same for 9i and 11g as well.
Hope this helps,

Conditional formatting in the chart does not work after 10g to 11g upgrade

W e have upgraded from 10g to 11.1.1.6.8 recently. For all the reports conditional formatting for charts is not working for us which used to work in 10g.
While researching , i have found that advanced xml needs to be modified. So i changed xml where there is 'untypedLiteral' to 'decimal' and saved the report. Inspite of saving , xml wouldnt change . It still shows as untypedLiteral.
I also tried to delete the conditional format and recreate again. But still it wouldn't work.
Please advise.

SQl loader is not working in 10g but working in 9i

In My PC i have installed both 9i and 10g. could you please tell me why it is not working

"SQL loader is not working" is rather like "my car won't start" http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/06/how-to-ask-questions.html
The 9i Oracle Client install includes sqlldr. The 10g Oracle Client install does NOT include sqlldr. You'd have to do a "Custom" Install and specifically select "Oracle Database Utilities" to install.

GET_FILE_NAME NOT WORKING IN ORACLE FORMS 9I

PLEASE HELP THIS COMAND WORKING IN FORMS 5 BUT NOT
WORKING IN FORMS 9I TO OPEN THE DAILOG BOX AND GET IMAGE FILES
TO SAVE ON FORMS 9I PLEASE HELP.
declare
salfile varchar2(255);
begin
salfile:=get_file_name('C:\emp\',NULL,'JPG FILES (*.JPG)|*.JPG|','IMAGE LIST');
read_image_file(SALFILE,'ANY','ISLAM.EMP_IMAGE');
END;
THANKS & REGARDS.
M.Z.ISLAM

Forms 5 is a client/server application, so it looks for files on your local c: drive.
Forms 9i is a web application, so in principle it will now look on the server's c: drive.
However, get_file_name is not a standard Forms procedure. My guess it that it is one of your own procedures and it uses the d2kwutil library. This library won't work in a web environment.
If you want to do something with files on your local PC in a web envirionment, you will have to use webutil.

Command_link does not work outside of form

if command_link is outside of form, it is rendered without a warning notes, but does not work correctly.

Sorry, you did not get my point again.
Currently, I check how JSF RI helps developer to recognize his/her mistakes.
In case of command_link outside of the form, RI says "Everything is all right. Spend the next couple minutes (couple hours or days, depends of developer qualification) to find this trick.
