Launch a URL Using Form Personalization

The following example will present the setup required to launch a URL from any Oracle Forms
using Form Personalization. For this example, we will use the Purchase Order window. We will
define a new Menu Item “Google” to help us open a new browser window to the Google main
page. Use the same principles to achieve this in any of the windows within the Oracle Forms User
Interface.

Navigate to the Purchase Orders window using the Purchasing SuperUser responsibility.

Enter the Form Personalization form. (M) Help > Diagnostics > Custom Code > Personalize.

Rule Seq: 10
Description: Create Menu Item Google
Trigger Event: WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE
Context: User and set the value to your user name
Select the Actions tab

Save your work, exit all Form Personalization as well as the PO window. Re-enter the PO Form
and test your solution.
Upon re-entering the PO form, you will now see under the Actions menu, the new menu item
“Google”. Click on it and a new browser window will launch to Google’s main page.
