hi all,
I have table
create table cdofshps(
rngcode varchar2(3),
shcode varchar2(6),
cd_tdate date,
cd_tqty number(6,3) default 0,
cd_ttyp varchar2(1) default '-',
constraint CDPK primary key (rngcode,shcode,cd_tdate),
constraint CDFK foreign key (rngcode,shcode)
references shops
)
which is created successfully.
I wrote a simple query in forms6i which is as follows:
insert into cdofshps (rngcode,shcode,cd_tdate,cd_tqty) values
('SKP','T.S 32','02-aug-2007',0);
it gives me an error ora-01400: cannot insert null into
"my_schema"."cdofshps"."rngcode", although i have not given
any null value to rngcode.
This query executes without any problem on Sql Plus console.
PLz Help
Thanks
Blaklite

Please at least read the list of forums before posting.
There is a forum for Forms.

I'd say that it is not the INSERT statement that causes the error, but committing block record which contains empty 'mgcode' item.

Forms, usually, don't need an explicit INSERT statement; usually, you'd fill in items' values and save (commit) changes you have made.

Also, you have declared 'cd_tdate' as a DATE column. Why do you insert a STRING ('02-aug-2007') into it? It is a pure luck it didn't throw an error - don't rely on current NLS settings, always take control over dates and insert DATE into a DATE column, i.e. TO_DATE('02-aug-2007', 'dd-mon-yyyy').
