Oracle Form Builder R6: Controlling the User Interface Programmatically

Course Overview

This course is the fifth in a six-part Oracle Developer series based on Oracle Developer Release 6. This course enables learners to create Key triggers, to write code that responds to mouse events, to manage windows and canvases, and to use the Object Navigator. In addition, learners work with multiple form applications, record groups, and list items.

Learn To:

  • Identify the rules, types, and functions of Key triggers.
  • Create a Key trigger and write the code that associates the key triggers with the user interface.
  • Write code that responds to mouse events.
  • Write the code to manage windows and canvases by using built-ins and triggers.
  • Invoke multiple forms by using built-ins and pass data between forms by using parameter lists.
  • Work with record groups.
  • Control list items at design time and programmatically by using built-in functions.
