New year and new resolutions (Excel-like javabean for Oracle Forms)

Posted on January 8th, 2010.

Fortunately, 2009 is now gone. Really bad year as far as I am concerned. I lost my father in October after an illness. That does not justify the lack of posts or the updates on the various forms components I have here. The mood was not there unfortunately.

However, I did manage to squeeze out a nice Excel-like javabean that can be connected to Oracle data sources from Forms. While that works, I am totaly at a loss of what can be done with it since I am not really a spreadsheet expert.

So, if you have in mind some nice business scenarios for such a bean, please let me know. That would include for example one or more tables and simple usage scenario for a spreadsheet usage within Oracle Forms. Send them to info [at] degenio.com

The one I have done was just to import the data from the table and from there do some charting within the Excel bean. It would be interesting to get some financial usage scenarios.

Hello Hafed,
Write the Bean, and be sure that someone will find a good application of it ;-)

Yes, that’s true Francois. However, I am interested in getting at least one case study to use as a showcase.

Maybe a kind of invoice with crossed calculation (line + coluum) ?

I would be more than happy to work with you on this, I have long been in search of something such as this. I would like to be able to have a dynamic interface to sort, rearrange and customize columns based on user specs that is easily implemented.

hi,
Please send me the sample. I have the requirement, that most of the
reports, we use view to display in forms. Many of the fields are very
lengthy and it is not fit in the screen, so if i get a bean which
have the flexibility like increase/decrease width, sort colum, etc.
will be very helpful.
thank you

If you could send through the bean/code I’d be interesed in trying it out/trying to make use of it. I can see some interesting possiblities in using this sort of bean for suppling budgeting/forecasting functionality.
