Which trigger should be used?

Hi exports,
I have a multi records tublar data block. there is a colum called expiry_date. The logic is:
1 In sert mode, this colum is protected and null values will be saved into the database.
2. In update mode, when user click "Expiry_date" colum, this colum is automatically populated with system date
Could you advise what's the best way to code this logic?
Thanks in advance for the help!
Michael

If Expiry_date is anyway not to be entered by a user then why do you need it on the Form as displayed/enterable item? It should be hidden. And you should write a Before Update For Each Row trigger on the table to set :NEW.EXPIRY_DATE := SYSDATE.

  • In which trigger can i use go_item() in oracle forms 6i?

    Hi,
        I have a problem with go_item.
    I tried executing go_item() in triggers like key_next_item, pre_text_item, post_text_item & when_validate_item.
    But none of them seemed to be working.
    I searched for other possibilities in the site, where i found a solution of using trigger ' when_timer_expired ' with ' when_validate_item ' ,
    but when i tried to create trigger, i did not find that trigger (when_timer_expired)  in the list at all.
    I'm using oracle form builder 6i.
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production.
    A trigger with go_item() must be created when tab is pressed.
    In which trigger can i use go_item() ??
    Thank You.

    from help:
    Restricted Built-in Subprograms
    Restricted Built-ins affect navigation in your form, either external screen navigation, or internal navigation. You can call these Built-ins only from triggers while no internal navigation is occurring.
    Restricted Built-ins cannot be called from the Pre and Post triggers, which fire when Oracle Forms is navigating from object to another.
    Restricted Built-ins can be called from the When triggers that are specific to interface items, such as When-Button-Pressed or When-Checkbox-Changed. Restricted Built-ins can also be called from any of the When-New-"object"-Instance triggers and from key triggers.
    Unrestricted Built-ins do not affect logical or physical navigation and can be called from any trigger.
    The Built-in descriptions include a heading, Built-In Type, that indicates if the Built-in is restricted or unrestricted.

  • I am a student and need to do my assignments in word. Which application should I use as I have to save all of them in older word version like 2003 to send it to my teacher?

    I am a student and need to do my assignments in word. Which application should I use as I have to save all of them in older word version like 2003 to send it to my teacher?

    You could use Microsoft Office for Mac, but I would recommend iWork! It's a better set of applications for a much better price. I have used both and I prefer it over Office. And Pages can not only open Word documents, you can also save documents in Word format. My brother and I both used iWork as an Office substitute when we were in college (I graduated a few years ago and he just graduated last night) and haven't had any compatibility issues.

  • I have down loaded Aurora,Beta4,firefox. Which one should i use

    I have down loaded Aurora,Beta4,and Firefox. Which won should i use.'

    That is up to you to decide. For some details about the different versions see https://developer.mozilla.org/devnews/index.php/2011/04/07/new-development-channels-and-repositories-for-rapid-releases/
    If you have not used to testing software you should stick with the release version (Firefox 4.0.1).

  • Which CPU should I use

    Hello,
    our company want to buy new computers for the developers.
    We have to use Windows XP as our OS because of third party products.
    We develop J2SE + J2EE.
    So my question:
    Which CPU should we use?
    I searched at google but didn't found any usefull sides about benchmarking an J2SE VM or J2EE VM.
    Intel or AMD?
    Are there some issues to be regarded?
    Is the behavior of the VM different if you use an Intel or an AMD? (X86)
    Our AppServer is JBoss 3.2.3.
    Has Intel ore AMD some magic improvements for the SUN Java VM?
    Any answer would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Oliver

    Olli_ger,
    Thanks for asking. To add more to the question, what about dual- and
    multi-processors, such as Opteron 2xx and 8xx processors?
    That is, can, and to what extent, does the Java compiler and the JVM
    utilize multi-processors? And how is this done? Threads parceled out?
    Using what algorithms? Are there "best practices" for writing code
    that can exploit these chips?
    Given the recent emergence of dual-core processors from both AMD and
    Intel I would think Sun would have a white paper on this, but I've not
    been able to find anything.
    As I'm about to build a new system, and am looking at a dual processor
    board that could take two dual-core chips, I'd really like to know.
    Thanks again for opening the issue.

  • Which listener should be used for JTextArea

    Hi,
    I need to add a listener for JTextArea particualy when
    the text in the jtextarea is changed. I don't think
    mouse listener is enough, since the user can use tab to
    get to the jtextarea and edit the text. In this case,
    which listener should I use. Sample code would be
    helpful.
    In addition, I have a problem with the jtextarea that
    when user uses tab to go to different gui components,
    such as jtextfield, jcombobox, jtextarea, jlist, etc, the
    tab stays in the jtextarea and keeps appending to it. It does
    not go to next component, such as jlist. How can I make it
    work?
    Thanks in advance,
    Pin

    It doesn't work. Are you using 1.4 or 1.3? I am using
    1.4.
    In the 1.4 API, it says that isManagingFocus is
    "Deprecated".
    Here is what I have:
    JTextArea descrptArea = new JTextArea() {
    public boolean isManagingFocus() {
    return false;
    descrptArea.setRows(3);
    descrptArea.setLineWrap(true);
    descrptArea.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
    public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
    // DO SOMETHING
    I found the following code which says it will do it.
    However, I got the exeception:
    java.lang.ClassCastException:
    n: javax.swing.KeyStroke
    at java.util.TreeMap.compare(TreeMap.java:1081)
    at java.util.TreeMap.put(TreeMap.java:459)
    at java.util.TreeSet.add(TreeSet.java:205)
    Set forwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
    forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke('\t'));
    forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEven
    .VK_TAB,
    InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
    textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys
    (KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
    forwardTraversalKeys);
    Set backwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
    backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEve
    t.VK_TAB,
    InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK));
    backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEve
    t.VK_TAB,
    InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK |InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
    textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys(
    KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
    backwardTraversalKeys);
    Any idea???
    PinI'm not using 1.4 but the class cast exceptions look like they come from : Set forwardTraversalKeys=new TreeSet() etc
    try : TreeSet forwardTraversalKeys=new TreeSet()
    you cant cast from a Set to a TreeSet because a TreeSet is a Set but a Set is NOT a TreeSet.
    hope this helps.

  • Which situation should we use the text item with the item category TATX

    Dear experts!
    Thank you for your attention!
    I am confused with text item (TATX).
    which situation should we use the text item with the item category TATX????
    Someone told me that the text item is dummy and should be used as a manual of certain standard item. But the manual may be a book or several papers and it also takes up some inventory not a dummy.
    So, could some body tell me what the text item (TATX) exact is and what function it has.
    Best regard!
    Tangdark

    Hi,
    you can use TATX if you like to enter a text and to print some information between the item lines.

  • Which object should i use ?

    Hi,
    I have a methode that returns several values of different types. Which objet should I use to return these values ? I thought of Vector but somebody told me that there is a better object than Vector.
    thanks for your help !
    Tex

    First, always use an interface over an object if it exists. So, your code should always declare the instance variable as List, not ArrayList or Vector or LinkedList. This allows the implementation to be optimized for the task at hand (e.g. LinkedList for arbitrary insertions or deletions of data, ArrayList for better Iterator performance, etc.) while using the interface for the common List methods (e.g., get(), add(), remove(), iterator(), etc.)
    Second, avoid Vector. Sun specifically states in the Collections tutorial that ArrayList is preferred over Vector.
