A Forms procedure of the same name as a procedure in the database will be fired. The same named procedure in the database will NEVER be fired.

IF you have a forms procedure 'read_data' and a database procedure 'read_data'. Only the forms procedure will be accessable from that form. Except if you use the 'owner.read_data' form of the call at which point you should get the database copy.

@azamkhan

What do you mean by 'event'? Are you saying that you can access the 'same named' database procedure from a form without using the 'owner_id'?

I'm afraid you are the first one who ever mentioned triggers in this topic. In other words, you've missed the point.

I said from the point of view that when you execute a procedure there must be an event that will trigger a code whether it is forms or database.

But you meant to say if you want to check the performance of a database and forms procedure then it is obvious that it is the database procedure which will execute fast then a form procedure. But again it depends on the contension on the server.

As you know that when ever you execute any statement or database procedure or function it is placed in the buffer cache so that it can be reused if that same piece of code is executed again but if to many procedure are called at database level then this might cause the buffer cache tobe flashed and this may raise the issue of reducing the performance of Oracle database server.

But simply saying to your question it is database procedure or function or statement that give you best performance then form.

But this doesnt mean that we should try to keep all code on database to get optimize performance.

The original question is:

Quote:

Which procedure get fired first
Database procedure or Forms procedure

Please note that the key word is 'FIRST' not 'FAST'. The question has nothing to do with speed or performance but order.

I am assuming that the procedure is called on same event through form and database. Again it depends on your piece of code which you are using in your procedure.

I mean if it has SELECT queries or cursor then database procedure will run fast than Form.

But if your procedure has loops, conditions etc I mean no or very few select then of course if will run fast on Forms.
