Setting ENABLED to property_false for combo box list item does not alter the prompt foreground color

Using Oracle Form Builder 10.1.2.3.0, I have a List Item of type Combo Box with a Prompt and next to it in the same Block is a CheckBox.
When I disable these two items with
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('block.item', ENABLED, PROPERTY_FALSE);
the CheckBox and its prompt go gray but the prompt portion of the List Item does not change. This makes the form and its developer look ridiculous.
Is this a bug?
To accomplish what I want I have to execute these when the List Item's enablement changes:
set_item_property('block.item', foreground_color, 'r150g150b150')
set_item_property('block.item', foreground_color, 'r70g70b70')
And these are just guesses because the color meter app is not perfect.
Half of the problem would "go away" if I could use a visual attribute but the form builder app complains about the "gray" color not being named.
Surely there is a better solution. Maybe playing with the LAF? But I have yet to figure out LAF customization.
I would not expect the prompt to change, but the edit area where text is entered will change. There is one exception. If running with colorScheme SWAN or BLAF the text edit are will always remain white unless you explicitly change the color. This is expected behavior.
If you are using SWAN or BLAF, which EBS does, by setting readOnlyBackground=true you can cause the edit area to go from white to a non-white color (the exact color will depend on the colorscheme in use). Because this parameter is not in the config by default it would need to be added manually and also added to the html template file.

Changing background colors of table cells (Visual Studio Reports 2008)

I have a report in Visual Studio Reports 2008.
I created datasets to select values from ReportParameter (Place).
Selected data from ReportParameter (Place) is used for displaying the report.
How can i change background color of table cells which equals to selected value from ReportParameter (Place)?
This is easily done by setting the Background property on the cells you wish to highlight.
While in design mode, select the cells you want to highlight. In the Properties pane, look for the Background property, and set the Expression to something like the following.
=IIf(Fields!Place.Value = Parameters!Place.Value, "Yellow", "White")
The field name will vary, depending on what you have named yours. This checks to see if the current Place value is equal to the selected parameter value, and sets the Background to Yellow if they match, White if they do not.
This should work in any version of SSRS.

Access 2010: How to open an Oracle linked table field in new window

I have some Oracle tables linked in Access 2010. Is there a way to open a field value in a new window (or dialog)? Something like when you double-click on a long string field in Toad (the value is opened in a window, in order to edit it with comfort).
Note: I want to do it in a linked table, not in a form nor a query.
Shift+F2 works in most objects (forms, tables etc) to open a zoomed window for a field / column.

How to change default control values in Visual Studio?

Is there anyway to change the default values of a control so that next time if I drag drop them, they have the new values.
For example if I change the default size and font of a text box and next time I drag drop, it has those new values.
There is no way to set default (as I know), but you can copy existing control. Drag and drop while holding Control key, or usual copy/paste. New control will be exact copy of existing one, with name identifier differing by a number added to existing name.
You can also clone several controls at the same time, by selecting them all before the copy.

How do I view results as text, as opposed to worksheet view in Oracle SQL Developer?

I can only get results from running SQL queries in the worksheet view. I want to view it as text. I know this was possible in past releases.
I think you want the "Run Script" (F5) command rather than the "Run Statement" (Ctrl-Enter) command.
Here's a workaround
To get a text copy of the Worksheet View including Headers.
Click on any cell in the worksheet view.
Press CTRL-A then CTRL-SHIFT-C
The contents of the worksheet view are now presents as text and can be pasted elsewhere.
