In my custom form when user enters enter the character data in the text item field which is of Number data type, i want the message to be displayed in the status bar (as like in standards forms).

i use standard form TEMPLATE.fmb and modified.

I searched in the forum & found one solution. in ON-ERROR trigger i written APP_STANDARD.EVENT('ON-ERROR'); at form level.

still i could not able to show the error message in status bar. Please help to fix the issue

Thanks,
amjadkhans

Dear just place "MESSAGE('you message')" command in ON-Error and ON-Message once and this is show your message in status bar.

But remember is "MESSAGE('')" command used twice, I mean like this

MESSAGE ('Hello World...1');
MESSAGE ('Hello World...2');

Then one message will be showed in status bar and the second message will be showed as alert.

You cann't trap an error or a message by simply typing MESSAGE('') command.

Please check the ON-Error and ON-Message help in developer.

i tried like this in ON-ERROR and ON-MESSAGE triggers
DECLARE
errnum NUMBER := ERROR_CODE;
errtxt VARCHAR2(80) := ERROR_TEXT;
errtyp VARCHAR2(3) := ERROR_TYPE;
errortext varchar2(80);

BEGIN
Message(errtyp||'-'||TO_CHAR(errnum)||': '||errtxt);
Message(errtyp||'-'||TO_CHAR(errnum)||': '||errtxt);
RAISE Form_Trigger_Failure;
end;

still it does not show the message in status bar. i also tried with fnd_message.hint

Dear most of the errors or messages generated by Oracle forms are trapped like this. I have also done this.

OK, but was there a reason for Forms to raise and error and, consequentially, fire ON-ERROR or ON-MESSAGE trigger. If "nothing happened", there's no chance for you to see any message.

The easiest way to test it is to put the MESSAGE statement into the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger. It will always fire (i.e. you won't have to wait for (or cause) an error).
