What are you trying to do? This is a new one on me.

Is this an accidental post? Did you figure it out or did the thread cut off your question?

Are you sure you're not referring to the row set or column set? On page 4-107 of the GL User's Guide (11i) there are some advanced options described and the column set is not far away. The do allow percentages of values. I'm not very functional but if this doesn't give you what you need...

There aren't really advantages or disadvantages, it just depends on what you want to do. Can you narrow it down a bit?

Thank you jmoscari, I'm not sure how to close a thread. The HPLJ5 series printers work great, but this 8100 is sooo close that it took some additional detective work. Someone was testing with "exact copies" that apparently weren't so exact. Be forewarned. When I asked to talk to...

In front of your init string AND in the reset box of the printer driver screen you need the reset sequence for your printer. Do you have that? For an HP it is /eE, I don't know what it is for your printer. Other situation I've seen is where people are trying to print through an NT box from...

Somebody dropped a laptop with NT into my lap and the error message is The Control Registry Key denied access to SYSTEM account programs so the Service Control Manager took ownership of the Registry key. Suffice it to say that the laptop is not feeling well and we cannot get the modem to...

Go to help/index/set_item_property and you should find it. Whenever you [set_item_property, enabled, false], Oracle Forms automatically also sets required false, updatable false, insert allowed false and some others. When I am changing a record from false to true I also set insert allowed to...

When you set item property enabled to false, you can't just set it back to true, you have to fix the updatable and some others. If you look under the set_item_property built-in in the help file it has a propa gated changes section at the bottom!

Yes all my styles and drivers and initialization strings are correct but the new Payables 1099 form prints the information on the bottom line (the line going through the information) instead of in the little boxes. It seems to me that the report is a bit off but I am not getting much help...

why does it say set echo on instead of set echo off?

hope this helps. Did you pull this command out of an existing script? Breaking it down - it calls sqlplus and the -s is -S[ILENT] Suppresses all SQL*Plus information and prompt messages, including the command prompt, the echoing of commands, and the banner normally displayed when you...

Found a script with the following comment - hope this helps. Its the most similar thing I could find since I was curious and echo on also displays on the screen. # Note: To diagnose problems in the following PL/SQL script, change the # following sqlplus invocation line to: sqlplus $USERPW...

Are you fluent in SQL*Plus and PL/SQL?

Can you print the file from the OS (prepend your request output with your initstring and send it to the printer from the OS)?

This may sound stupid at this point, but I have let it slip by a few times wreaking havoc, but, you did make sure you took away all the default break order settings from your fields right?

Hello mbrent, I've been out of the office and you have been having some fun. First, my favorite resource for forms is actually just the help reference that comes with forms. After seven years of working with forms, it has served me well, but the most important thing is to look at the...

The "On" Triggers, especially for beginners, should be left alone until you are more familiar with how things fire. You should put your code in a pre-insert or post-insert if you want this code to run when a record is inserted by the database. The when validate trigger fires when a...

First - "when a field in another table changes" do you mean "when someone changes the form item"? I sincerely do not think you mean to be using an ON-INSERT trigger here. What is sounds like, and correct me if I am wrong - is that you need a when validate item trigger so...

I don't know anything fancy that forms provides, but you could put a global variable into all your code.
