I am using Form6i on 10g.My Form trigger has code as:

args := ole2.create_arglist;
ole2.add_arg(args,rowcount);
ole2.add_arg(args,2);
cell := ole2.get_obj_property(worksheet,'Cells',args);
ole2.destroy_arglist(args);
ole2.set_property(cell,'Value',:item_block.item_code);
ole2.release_obj(cell);

Problem is , whenever :item_block.item_code start with '0' the Excel column cuts off the '0' and gives the numeric part of data only.
Eg: Form data '009856' converts to Excel as 9856.
How to fix this as same as Form output ??

Hi all...
I found the solution myself. By adding a '' as prefix.
The code looks like this :-
args := ole2.create_arglist;
ole2.add_arg(args,rowcount);
ole2.add_arg(args,2);
cell := ole2.get_obj_property(worksheet,'Cells',args);
ole2.destroy_arglist(args);
ole2.set_property(cell,'Value',''''||:item_block.item_code);
ole2.release_obj(cell);

May be it was far too simple for me to find it.!! Laughing

thanks
