Search in Oracle forms

Dear professionals,
How to perform a search in oracle forms using the toolbar: (press enter query key + press run key) using the following criteria:
1. the value in the date element is less then some (e.g. date_item < 01.02.2011) photo
2. how to find NULL values in date and no items date (IS NULL does not work)

It is not the problem of dynamically set these criteria: set_block_property ('block_name', default_where,'date_item IS NULL "") OR set_block_property ('block_name', default_where,'date_item < ' 01.02.2011 ").

There is a useful link to get advice from oracle forms research?

THX in advance,
Adnan

You can do this by using

#IS NULL

-- or

#IS NOT NULL

Be aware, that your text object accepts values is more than limit set in search mode. So it cannot accept the channels above if the length of the column is less.

Another way may be to use replace colon (:) in all areas and it will appear in a search window where you can type your condition (so you can put the like condition - YourColumn IS NOT NULL, etc) and it will be increased to current blocks where clause.)

I hope that helps!

  • On the date ranges in search of oracle forms

    I use service number, name, type person and date as search criteria in the custom form ranges.
    When I enter the employee number, press the search button, I get the exact info in the block of result.
    Result block contains
    name of the employee, personid, emp numbed, org, start_date.
    Similarly when I enter the employee number, dept, I get the correct values.
    My question is, when I enter the date range. IAM unable to filter the data.
    When I enter START_DATE between nvl(:BLOCKNAME.) Start_date, 1 January 1901 ') and nvl(:BLOCKNAME.) End_date, 31-DEC-4712') where block clause in the result. I had data for the range of dates also.

    If I give condition in where clause results take so long when I search with the name of the employee, number, dept, person type.

    If I have a query with the date, the persormance is good.

    Think you know everything, how it prevents START_DATE between nvl(:BLOCKNAME.) Start_date, 1 January 1901 ') and nvl(:BLOCKNAME.) End_date, 31-DEC-4712') when look us with the employee's name, number, dept, person type.

    So leave the WHERE clause of your empty block and put something like the following in your search button:

    IF    :BLOCK.START_DATE IS NOT NULL
       OR :BLOCK.END_DATE IS NOT NULL THEN
      SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('YOURBLOCK', ONETIME_WHERE, 'START_DATE between nvl(:BLOCKNAME.START_DATE,TO_DATE(''01-JAN-1901'', ''DD-MON-YYYY'')) and nvl(:BLOCKNAME.END_DATE,TO_DATE(''31-DEC-4712'', ''DD-MON-YYYY''))');
    END IF;

  • Oracle Forms - "DEFAULT_WHERE" is lost when used an apostrophe

    Hi all

    I faced a problem with Oracle Forms for a long time and I have no idea of what is happening so far.

    I have a block based on a stored table. I used the following statement to set the WHERE clause for this block:

    set_block_property ('MTI', default_where, l_where);

    Variable l_where has the following form:

    l_where: = ' WHERE art_nr IN (')

    || "SELECT the md5 ma_nww_ww_dat art_nr."

    || 'WHERE trunc (sysdate) BETWEEN md5.gueltig_ab AND md5.gueltig_bis'

    || ' AND UPPER (md5.art_bez_altern) AS "' | : gi_intern.txt_match_name | '%''';

    The problem arises when the user tries to search for an article, using the MATCH_NAME an apostrophe (for example, GRANT). In this case, the where conditions are lost and all records are returned as a result.

    Could you help me understand what the problem is?

    Thank you very much!

    Raluca

    I think you should put the link reference inside the clause, instead of its value.

    I mean: If you set the where_clause ' like mycol. "' | : my_item |' % "'

    you to hard-code the value of: my_item at the time of the set_block_property.

    I could do this instead (simplifying):

    l_where: = ' upper (md5.art_bez_altern) like: gi_intern.txt_match_name | » %'' ';

    Thus, the: my_item value will be assessed at the moment execute_query, and I think that forms will address the apostrophe in the variable to better link if hardcode you just what you do in your example.

    It is, forms will treat it in the same way it would if you were query mode enter and entering a filter: with variable binding.

    In fact, I think that this kind of filter you can even enter at the time of the design (with single apostrophes)

    In addition, liaison is supposed to be better for the performance of subsequent queries.

  • Hi I am new to Oracle forms and reports I want to know the differences between the Enter query mode and Normal mode?

    Hi I am new to Oracle forms and reports I want to know the differences between the Enter query mode and Normal mode?

    Welcome to Oracle Forms!  Out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'new '?  You are a student or new to an organization that uses Oracle Forms?  Or just play with Oracle Forms to learn something new?

    Let me start by saying that many of your questions designtime can answer by searching in the help of the constructor of the form library.  It's accessible, like most of the other products in the Builder menu > help.

    Regarding your question, ENTER QUERY mode, as the term implies, is when it is in a State where it is accept input for the execution of a query.  When in this mode, there are various restrictions.  Yet once, it will find more details in the Builder Help.  In this case, search help for these two subjects, "SYSTEM." MODE'and "built-ins comments that are not allowed in the input query Mode".  There are many other pages that contain information about the ENTER_QUERY method, but these two should help you get started.

    Normal mode, as its name implies, is when it is in a State of 'normal '.  Basically to do nothing in particular, but also not in ENTER QUERY mode.  In this State, you can move the shape, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, documents, etc..

    You will find additional information, as well as a lot of documentation on the product page of forms of OTN:

  • How can we replace Oracle form when you used by another user

    Hi Experts,

    Is it possible to replace Oracle form while in use by another user?

    Some time need deliver urgent fixes on the production environment, but it must wait for downtime, and the form does not use.

    I searched the Forum, but able to get the answer to this topic, I will be grateful if you could provide no alternative to do this.

    Env:

    Windows Server 2008 R2

    WebLogic Server 10.3.5

    Oracle form & report 11.1.2

    Hello

    For Production environment, it will be handled with tactics that led to minor maintenance work as well.

    You must have two physical directories (real and temporary) including the same fmx/plx/pll/mmx, files etc.

    and a file reference of in the FORMS_PATH in default.env, who have the latest version of the source.

    Copy the last source file into a temporary directory, when the user take the new session, it will access the new version of the source of the temporary path and who obviously last source version.

    Meanwhile, once the actual source published by the user version, you can copy the latest version of the source to the real directory and reset the FORMS_PATH with the actual path.

    In this way, you can solve your problem.

    First of all, there is no need to relocate the jdk system. Part of your problem is more likely the result of a known limit which is caused by the system path or the CLASSPATH containing special characters like the parentheses in (x 86). So, follow these steps:

    Before you begin, make sure that your computer has a static IP address. If it is not the case, you need to install the loopback adapter Windows. For more details, read the Setup Guide and system requirements.

    1. clean your installation attempts failed. Don't forget to also delete the folder C:\bea assuming that no other product does WLS.

    2 uninstall the 64-bit jdk and reinstall where you prefer. I would recommend its default location.

    3 log in Notepad and let it open as a place of detention to paste the following information.

    4. open system properties. Computer > right click > properties > Advanced System Properties > Environment Variables

    5. search for the path in the system variables and values cut into the Clipboard and paste them into Notepad session, that you opened above. Save this information for later.

    6. in the value of path, he has defined as follows, make sure the path to the jdk is correct for your installation:

    % SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%; C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_37\bin

    7. you need the 'generic' WLS download if you plan to run 64-bit. It is a jar instead of an exe file. Assuming you are using WLS 10.3.6, open a DOS window and start Setup as follows:
    java-jar C:\PathToJar\wls1036_generic.jar

    After completing the installation of WLS and FMw installation and configuration, you can reset your WAY to the way you want to.

  • Can we have pop up similar to Oracle Forms LOV LOV

    JDeveloper Version - 11.1.1.4.0


    My form is made up of empid, deptid, projectid. I have an InlputwithListofvalues for the project ID.

    I want to change the default functionality of the search popup that appears by clicking the search icon. It should work similar to Oracle Forms LOV. IIN pop up I need to have that one field, say the search field. On enter a value in the search field and clicking on the "Search" button, it should try to match the empid, projectid and deptid value. It should return all records whenever these values match.

    Yes, it will not work with VC (and when I think about it, once again, it was very bad idea :))

    So you can do the following (this time I tested app, so it works - or at least compiles :))):
    1. you don't need any ViewCriteria
    2. Add the new variable to link to your LOV viewobject (for example: "p_search") and change the data type and the label
    3. change the where clause in LOV view the object, something like this:
    EmpID =: p_search
    or projectid =: p_search
    deptId = or: p_search

    4. set Queryble = false on all attributes
    5 Add this VO as LOV your fields
    And, that is :)

    Because you define queryable = false at run time, you will see only the input field for the connection variable

    In this case, your question is probably best answered on the forum of the database. What forms is it sees tables according to the privileges of the logged in user has.

  • load: oracle.forms.engine.Main not found stuck at loading Applet Java class

    Hello

    I recently installed App Server 10.1.2.0 on a new machine.
    Copied all my forms on an appropriate directory. Implement formsweb.cfg to allow them to perform and attempted to run them.

    Unfortunately, I'm stuck at loading Java Applet and screen in the status bar at the bottom that it is said:
    load: class oracle.forms.engine.Main not found

    I took a peek at the Java Console, and the 2 things that jump out to me are that it seems to be looking for a directory of forms90, which seems odd since I use App Server 10.1.2.0.2, and meaning of Forms Builder 10.1.2.0.2 should it be looking in a repertoire of forms not forms90 should - not?

    And in addition, he mentions class without proxy, so now by browsing the forums it was suggested that put the details of proxy in jinitiator, what I did, but it made no difference either.

    Can someone suggest something else please?

    The Java Console log follows.

    Thank you very much

  • Console debugging Oracle forms 6i

    Hello

    where the Oracle forms 6i debug console?

    There is no 'Debug' menu, and I can't find the debug anywhere console.

    Forms 6i debugger is not the Debug Console with the form window values (for poster modules currently loaded and the item values and parameter),

    window spy (to specify the variables you want to monitor when your application debugging)...,.

    but we can get such information (in the ugliest way) in the pane Navigation Debug Forms 6i.

    We also use debugging triggers which are a general form of debugging action involving a block of PL/SQL code with a specific line within a program unit.

    See, for example. This using Forms 6i:

    Debugging triggers are particularly useful as conditional breakpoints.

    You can throw the exception of DEBUGGING. Break UP with a trigger.

    For example, the trigger for debugging below sets a conditional breakpoint on line 10 of my_proc, which will be achieved only if the my_sal local variable NUMBER exceeds 5000:


    PL/SQL > line 10 is

    + > IF Debug.Getn ('my_sal') > 5000 THEN
