I have created a sysdate to display on my forms.
select to_char(sysdate,'Mon/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss') into :block.datebox;
However, what I needed the time to do is blink the seconds.
In other words, I want the seconds to update while the screen is open as opposed refreshing the screen to update time.
Can any good hearts tell me how to implement this?
A syntax would be great!
 
You need to create a timer by CREATE_TIMER and a trigger when-timer-expired. Read online help for details.
 
Thanks sem! It is working for me.
