Dear, I am a started in this forum and a novice in the Or.forms.
I am using Forms 6i,Oracle 10g.
In a form I created, I have 3 blocks, first is a toolbar type with buttons to save, exit etc., other two are one master and detail data block.

Pls someone tell me how to get the default Oracle toolbar with the buttons, save, delete etc. I dont get in my form.

When the cursor is inside the detail block and then I click on an EnterQuery button in the first block, how do I clear the detail block, using the on btn press code.

What happens when I click the Enter Query button, is that the cursor and current block becomes the button block and when I run the command ENTER_QUERY, no use.

I need to set the block in which the cursor is to be cleared for query, whether it is master or detail, by pressing the button on the first block.

Can someone pls help me.

Thanks
Biju

You need to sort out the toolbar and then the other issues go away automatically.
Unfortunately I don't know how having never had to set it up myself but some others around here should.

Hi bijuandenb,

"Pls someone tell me how to get the default Oracle toolbar with the buttons, save, delete etc."

In my knowledge i don't know there is something exists in forms like you mentioned above.may be using some procedures..

if you want to clear the block while entering the master details use execute_query,show_view,go_block,clear_block.

may be , i don't know! is this you really meant for?.

how to get the default Oracle toolbar with the buttons

Open form's Property Palette window and put "DEFAULT&SMARTBAR" into the Menu Module property.

Does it mean that EVERY block has its own toolbar (or, at least querying buttons)? If so, that's kind of strange.

Anyway, entering query mode in any block will ... well, put that (current) block into a query mode (clear its contents and wait for you to enter some values and, finally, execute query). So, if you are currently in a detail block, ENTER QUERY will put DETAIL block into a query mode. If there is a value in a master block, you'll be able to query only that master record's detail records.

I'm afraid I don't understand the question.

I don't know how to get forms to use the default toolbar (now I do). The forms project I used to work on had standard templates for forms that sorted that out for you. I assumed it was automatic.

I'm not talking about that, but your sentence ("how having never had") ... Eh? How having what?

I thought that you were editing that line and forgot to fix it before submitting the message.

Ah, does an extra comma or two help?

Unfortunately I don't know how, having never had to set it up myself, but some others around here should.

Oh yes, that's much better (at least for me, a non-native speaker). Thank you!
