Oracle Forms running against multiple databases?

Maybe that's a stupid question, but Oracle Web Forms can run into other databases (SQL Server, Access, etc...)?

This isn't a stupid question, but the answer is no. Forms is specialized and highly optimized to run against Oracle

  • Dblink Oracle to sql server, multiple database on the same server sql under a dblink

    Hi, we managed to set up an Oracle dblink to sql server and retrieve data.

    The user of sql server have been using via dblink has access to multiple databases on the same sql server

    But the question is how in oracle (if possible) prepend you the SQL access to this?

    For example:

    Sqlserver_prod has the user sqlserver_user which seems to be set up as default database sqlserver_db1

    But we have select access to sqlserver_db2

    all work well as sqlserver_user

    Select * from table_fromdb1

    Select * from dbo.table_fromdb1

    Select * from sqlserver_db1.dbo.table_fromdb1

    as does

    Select * from sqlserver_db2.dbo.table_fromdb2

    more in Oracle

    Oracle_db a dblink sqlserver_prod. World connection sqlserver_user

    everything works fine

    Select * from 'table_fromdb1"@sqlserver_prod '.

    Select * from 'dbo '. "table_fromdb1"@sqlserver_prod

    But how to (if possible) access from oracle

    sqlserver_db2.dbo.table_fromdb2

    without having to create a new sqlserver_db2_user referenced in a new dblink

    If oracle for oracle would be

    Select * from remote_oracle_schema.table@remote_oracle_db

  • Oracle forms running with the Windows frame

    Hello

    We are migrating our existing Oracle Forms 6i to Oracle forms 10g applications. The existing application is the server version of the client and we run the request transformed inside the browser. The current forms are designed to fit the current screen resolution. But the converted forms are at the origin of the scroll bars that little space is consumed by the menu bar and toolbars in the browser.

    Is it possible to run forms such as pop up window in the browser. Something like forms on Oracle Ebiz, where she launched as a separate browser application.

    Thank you and best regards,

    S R Prasad

    The idea to run a Forms application removed from the Explorer is possible by using the separateFrame parameter. Simply set the value true (separateFrame = TRUE). The setting is defined in the formsweb.cfg file.

    If you decide to not use this setting and keep the application in the browser, you can also do the following that is often useful (once again, in the formsweb.cfg):

    HEIGHT = 100%
    WIDTH = 100%

    Thanks for your time.

    In general, we don't document what we do not support. In most cases, we will document only what "do us" certify and support. See customer management representation statement forms for the list of browsers certified on the client and Java execution environments.

    For Forms 10.1.2:

    http://www.Oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gR2/clientsod_forms10gR2.html

    To the best of my knowledge, there is no plan to certify the forms on any scaled down of Windows platforms (for example, Tablet) or mobile devices.

  • Unable to connect Oracle Forms to my Oracle Database 10g

    Hi guru,.

    Could you guys help out me on below? I've been running Oracle 10 g XE and developer Sql on Windows XP personal edition. I am able to connect using TNS as connection type when I connect to my SQL Developer in my database.

    Today, I installed Oracle Forms, form builders. I chose to connect and provide information
    username: my username
    password: password
    Database: XE

    I got ORA - 12154 TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified.

    Everyone I have something wrong?

    Hello

    What is your version of forms (tnsnames.ora location is different for 11g). ?

    As mentioned Baig, you must first create an alias in the tnsnames.ora file, as

    mydb =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS_LIST =
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = )(PORT = ))
        )
        (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ))
      )
    

    Then, from forms that you connect as

    username: my username
    password: password
    Database: mydb<== this="" is="" the="" alias="" you've="" created="" in="" your="" tnsnames.ora="" as="">

  • How to install and run on 64-bit windows8 oracle forms?

    Hi all

    I am a newbie in Oracle forms and I want to install oracle forms in my laptop with the aim of learning and training.

    I tried installing Oracle forms 10 g 2, but am not able to run the forms because I'm stuck at the frm-92101 error which I am not able to delete even after many changes made to the formsweb.cfg file (as suggested by the bias on the internet). Recently I learned that this version of forms is not certified (or compatible, I suppose) with windows 8.

    So I would ask all the people of genius out there that what should be the version of things so that they work on windiws8 64-bit following:

    (a) in oracle forms

    (b) jinitiator

    (c) java

    (d) browser(preferably firefox)

  • encrypt/decrypt in Oracle Forms BEFORE you call an SP or the database DML statement

    Hello.  I'm working on an application where we need to encrypt information before it is sent to the database.  I know that the database has a great set of stored procedures to manage the encryption and decryption.  The only challenge here is the fact that I would need to send information unencrypted in the database "in the clear".  Ideally, I would like to encrypt the information in the form and send it to the database.  On recovery, recover the information and then have the application forms decipher encrypted information.

    Whoever did this as a package within a PLL without all calls to a package DBMS_?

    Thank you

    BradW

    OK, I think I have the solution.  We are going to import a java class that we create to do this for us.  We then import it in forms in a library of PLL.  Problem solved!

    I have a single column of field Field1, button, in the form TEXT_ITEM1.

    Please suggest

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Afzal.

    Forgive me if I am oversimplifying this, but why not just base your block of data to the table: XXTABLE.  Then, you just put your form in design query (F7). Enter the value of 1122 in the area of the INVOICE_NUM and selects Execute Query (F8).  Then forms does all the work to extract and display the records without having to write code to do this.  This saves you having to write the code to perform and DML as well because the forms will take care of the Insert, Update and Delete automatically when your users click on save or press F10 (if I remember correctly).

    If you must absolutely query and display your data manually, then you cannot use the standard SELECT INTO method because it will only show 1 record.  You need to loop through your recordset and to manually edit the records in your block after you assign a value to the line.  For example:

    
     /* Sample Button Code */
    DECLARE
      v_invoice_num NUMBER := BLOCK.TEXT1;
    
      CURSOR Get_Items (p_invoice NUMBER) IS
      SELECT INVOICE_NUM, ITEM_CODE
      FROM XXTABLE
      WHERE invoice_num = p_invoice;
     BEGIN
      GO_BLOCK('BLOCK');
      CLEAR_BLOCK(NO_VALIDATE);
    
      FOR rec in Get_Items(v_invoice_num) LOOP
      :BLOCK.INVOICE_NUM := rec.invoice_num;
      :BLOCK.ITEM_CODE := rec.item_code;
      Next_Record;
      END LOOP;
     END:
    

    I really don't like this method, but it could work.
