- Redefining key mapping for forms
Key Mapping in Oracle Forms 10g and Forms 11g | Shortcut keys
Key mapping or key binding defines how an application should respond whe
n mapped key is typed.
Usually application executes some function in repose.
For example in Forms 6i, when user types F9, List of value is displayed
to the user.
It means that key F9 is mapped to function List of Values .
In oracle Forms this key mapping is defined in fmrweb.res file.
Oracle provided a tool named Oracle Terminal in Forms 6i to customize key
mapping.
In Forms 10g and Forms 11g this file is directly editable.
{DEV_HOME}forms\fmrweb.res
In Forms 11g this file can be located at following location
$Instance_home/config/FormsComponent/forms/admin/resource/US
In Forms 10, frmweb.res can be located in \forms directory
As you know, in Forms 10g and 11g List of values is mapped to Ctrl+L key.
Following section explains how to change List of values to F9 key.
Let have a look at the following line in frmweb.res file which maps List
of values to Ctrl+L key
76

: 2 : Ctrl+L

: 29 : List of Values

it very important to understand the syntax.

76: is the key code of
L character
2: means that it will be accessed with Ctrl
0 is used to access it stand alone
Ctrl+L: it is the key used to access

key, 1 is used for Shift

key and

List of values: it is function called when the Ctrl+L is type

To re-map List of values from Ctrl+L to F9 key, we need key code of F9 key
which is 120.
A complete list of key codes can be view at following link

wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001136.html

Now edit key mapping for List of values as under

120 : 0 :

F9?

: 29 :

List of Values

To test it, restart your forms application. Now List of values is availa
ble with F9 key.
similarly if you want to use Shift+F
for List of values, use following ma
pping
120 : 1 : Shift+F9?

: 29 :

List of Values

and use following mapping to access List of values with

120 : 2 : Ctrl+F9?

: 29 :

Ctrl+F9?

List of Values
