"Timer" might be one topic to research.

Although, if you want to do it once in a form (i.e. your users don't work overnight shifts so noone is there at midnight so that he/she needs to be warned about change of a date), this piece of code could be put into the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger:

IF TRUNC(SYSDATE) = TO_DATE('25.01.2009', 'dd.mm.yyyy') THEN
   MESSAGE('It is 25.01.2009!');
END IF;

Not unless I Google for it (which you may do by yourself) or open Forms Online Help System and read about it there (which you can also do by yourself).

Work fine because sysdate gets server date not client date,

But What the point is to Change your System Date today by your own? Nobody gonna change the Sysdate of your system or server untill unless its not placed publicaly.Why dont you give it a Try later you can find and sue the person whoever change your System Dates.

Then don't change the system date?
Because if someone does that you're going to have far bigger problems than when your message is displayed.

@ Above

Thanks for reply

Basically the Reason behind this is that when i give my module to any one he will know at particular date to his pending works or what ever i need to write in trigger

For Example when 15-jan-09 Arrive The message of "Submission of Sales tax Return"

But some one else or any one change the date of system then the message will come before the particular date

So i need when actually 15-jan-08 come the massage automatically Display at 15-jan-08

Hope you guys Understand my problem

Thanks

I suggest supplying a cricket (baseball) bat to your client and instruct them to use it around the back of the head of the person who is changing the system date of their PRODUCTION computing machine.

It is not worth the effort to try and write this type of stuff unless you intend accessing a web-service and reset the date/time yourself. Google 'atomic time date update' and get a date time updater and install it on your client's machine.
