    Basing a block on a stored procedure

    Developer 9i I am trying to create a block based on a stored procedure. The stored procedure is returning a ref cursor not a pl/sql table. I used the wizard to create the block and everything seems fine. However, when I compile the form the QUERY-PROCEDURE is not created. No error message or...

    Error Using HOST builtin

    I guess what I don't understand is, if it is a permission problem why is user appltest able to create a zero byte file in the first place? If appltest does not have permission to create a file because oratest owns /u01 then appltest would not be able to create a file at all, right? How can I...

    Error Using HOST builtin

    :control.nbt_command is a text item on the form so I can type in unix commands to execute. All files and directories have been chmod-ed to 777. I have tried to execute the script with the full path. The user does have privileges to run the script and to write to test directory. Another odd...

    key-enter trigger

    Thanks, I found that but I want to display the LOV only when they use the Enter key not that Tab. So Tab for navigation, Enter for the LOV. Thanks again.

    key-enter trigger

    I am using forms 9i. In my form, I am using the mouse-doubleclick trigger to display LOVs. The users want to use the Enter key to display LOVs. I tried using the key-enter trigger but it does not fire at all. I think the default ctrl-L would work for them. But I would like to know: 1. why...

    How can I delay execution of a pkg until previous execs of the pkg

    Just to clarify the situation. insert_pkg starts on db1, db2, db3, db4. This package inserts data into table_hdr and table_dtl in my_db. When table_hdr.transmit_complete is updated, an after update trigger fires and calls my_process_pkg. I do not want my_process_pkg to run for all the dbs at...

    How can I delay execution of a pkg until previous execs of the pkg

    I have a package (process_pkg) called by a trigger. The trigger is fired when table_hdr is updated. The process that updates table_hdr is from other databases via a db links. So, db1, db2, db3 and db4 can update the table at the same time but I want only one occurence of process_pkg running at...

    When using the arrow keys to navigate records in a block, the value in the item is selected as if I want to copy and paste the value. How do I turn this off? Thanks

    Oracle 9i Forms - Disappearing Status Bar

    Figured it out. In case anyone has encountered the problem, comment out any Set_Window_Property(forms_mdi_window,window_state,maximize); That seems to be the problem.

    Oracle 9i Forms - Disappearing Status Bar

    My status bar (where the tool tips and record count is) does not show up in a called form. Form A calls Form B. The status bar is visible when Form A starts but does not show up in Form B. When I exit Form B the status bar does not appear in Form A. Any ideas?

    What is the most efficient way to loop thru a block?

    Thanks for all the responses. Using a pl/sql table was my initial thought. I just did not know if there was any advantages to using a pl/sql table over a record group.

    What is the most efficient way to loop thru a block?
