Webutil OLE2 in Forms 12

Alexis BAug 26 2020 — edited Aug 27 2020

Hi All

I am migrating an oracle forms 6i application to a forms 12.1.2.4 application

In forms 6i, I have the screen that generate an xml file

pastedImage_0.png

and display it in an OLE Object (Excel.Sheet.8) in a forms 6i screen

pastedImage_1.png

Is it possible to display an xml file with the same way in Forms 12c? Else I will open directly the XML file with Web.Show_Document, not a big problem i know do this.

BUT before this I have the problem to generate the XML file

In forms 6i Library OLE2 was used. I tried to replace OLE2 library with CLIENT_OLE2 package from library WEBUTIL

But when I execute it I got the following error message :

When trying to execute the following line :

application := CLIENT_OLE2.create_obj('Excel.Application');

I know that my Webutil is correctly configure as I can use the following webutil function withouth any error :

WEBUTIL_FILE.FILE_OPEN_DIALOG

Any Idea why this error occurs?

On my PC I have Microsoft Office Professionnel Plus 2016 installed

On the Application server Excel is not installed. Could it be the cause?

Thanks,

Best regards,

Hi All,

Is there a sample demo packaged apps made in Apex for a document management system? Just like the demo ARIA or Bug tracking systems.
There was, but it has been removed as it "no longer followed recommended coding practices and security". However it appears that these recommendations on coding practices and security do not apply in China as the packaged applications are still available from Oracle's Chinese site.

@Oracle: 2271362. These apps are out there and (if Arie's comments are correct regarding what are now perceived to be outdated about them) they still constitute a largely useful resource. Why not make them officially available again through the relevant previous version archives?

I can't login to your app. The username / password does not work.
