where :social_security.person_id = emp.person_id;

should be

where :PERSON.PERSON_DOB = Person.Person_dob;

Someone please help!

01403, 00000, "no data found"
// *Cause: No data was found from the objects.
// *Action: There was no data from the objects which may be due to end of fetch.

Please realize that we don't have your tables & we don't have your data.
Therefore we can't run, test or improve your posted code.

This for coursework so cant upload everything.
I have a table called person with the fields person_id, and Person_dob. In oracle server forms (online) when im entering these fields and then when i press a button i want it to flag and alert on oracle server forms, saying the user is under 17, or nothing if over. I believe the code is close to being right, but ovo just need a hint or pointing to something that can help my solve the problem.

HUH?

You can test the SQL independent of the form.

This query (from your first message):

select date_of_birth
into age
from emp	
where :social_security.person_id = emp.person_id;

didn't find any record in the EMP table where EMP.PERSON_ID is equal to data block's :SOCIAL_SECURITY.PERSON_ID value.

How to test? When you run the form, you see (on the screen) :SOCIAL_SECURITY.PERSON_ID value. Remember it. Now open SQL*Plus and run the same SELECT statement, but this time substitute data block's item name with the value you remembered a moment ago. Imagine that :SOCIAL_SECURITY.PERSON_ID was 12345. You'd run

select date_of_birth
into age
from emp	
where emp.person_id = 12345;

That query won't return anything, so Oracle told you that there was no data found.

Question is: what do you want to do now? The right way would be to handle that exception properly (in EXCEPTION section), alerting user that person with that ID doesn't exist. Something like this:

declare
  alert_button  number;
  age           date;
  ageless       number;
begin
  begin
    select date_of_birth
      into age
      from emp
      where :social_security.person_id = emp.person_id;
  exception
    when no_data_found then
      message('Employee does not exist');
      raise form_trigger_failure;
  end;

  ageless := months_between(sysdate, age)/12;

  if ageless < 65 then
     alert_button :=show_alert('ALERT_TOO_YOUNG');
     if alert_button = alert_button1 then
        clear_record;
     end if;
  else 
    go_item('SOCIAL_SECURITY.CATEGORY_ID');
  end if;
end;

While we're at it: note how my code is properly formatted, indented and easy to read. Try to format your code in your future messages.
