[Quoted] [Quoted] Recently started working in Oracle Forms 6 with Oracle 8i database.
I would like to create either a dynamic menu or selection list, based upon the user login name (maintained in a table), which will present the user with only the choices he/she is able to access. The form names called and access levels are also maintained within tables we have set up for this purpose.
Currently I have been able to implement what I want using a view of the various tables needed along with a LOV; however, there is very little that I can do to customize the Look of the LOV.
Is is possible to create a menu "on-the-fly" as is possible in either Delphi, VB, etc.??
Or, if possible, how would one go about creating a selection list for this purpose using a view or table?
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have over 10 years experience with Oracle, PL-SQL, and numerous development platforms; however, just recently started working with Oracle Forms. Somewhat different than what I am used to.
Again.... any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
