In case of alerts Can any one tell me how to display a large text in multiple lines
MESS:= ( 'Created By : '||arr(0)||
chr(13) ||'Created Date : '||arr(1)||
CHR(13) || 'Updated By : '||arr(2)||
CHR(13) || 'Updated Date : '||arr(3));
Set_Alert_Property(alert_id, alert_message_text, mess );
al := Show_Alert( alert_id );
I want the messages to be in new line (in 4 lines) but in forms 6i it works properly
currently im using 10g

Try chr(10), if that doesn't work then try chr(11), chr(12), and perhaps the good old CR-LF chr(13)||chr(10).
We use a couple of simple forms which takes a 'header', that is display in bold and left justified, then up to 5 other parameters (unfortunately, maximum length of 53 or 71 depending on whether it is the 'small' or 'big' display form - unfortunately you do the splitting yourself) which are displayed on a series of lines that are indented.
