Can the user download the report file to their own destination?

Hello,
I want to have a report run that will take a destination as provided by the user and save the report output there. Is this possible? (Its a delimited file.)
Thanks,
J

You can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to do this.

  • Allow users to create reports based on their own selection of fields

    Is there a way to allow users to create reports based on their own selection of fields?
    And if there is a way, then how?
    In access we retrieve all demographic info on one screen and on another screen user can be able to choose specific fields from a list box to import data into file.

    Hi,
    This can be handled in various ways - but the principles are the same.
    You need to apply conditional displays to all of the columns that your user can select and base the display of a column on the value of a field on the page.
    You can have a series of Yes/No options - one for each field and base the display on the corresponding field being Yes. Or you can use checkboxes.
    However, if you wish to use a multiselect list (which is probably easier as you can dynamically generate the list of field names), you will need to have hidden fields that will store either Y/N or 1/0 (I use ones/zeros) and have the conditional displays watch these fields instead. Populating these hidden fields is a bit more tricky than just having fields on the page that the user can control, but is doable:
    1 - Create one hidden field for each field in the report that you want to show/hide. Put these fields in the same region as the select list in a region above the report
    2 - Set conditional display values to "Value of Item in Expression 1 = Expression 2" and use the appropriate hidden field for Expression 1 and in Expression 2 enter in 1
    3 - Create a page process that runs on submit, and create PL/SQL code something like:
    DECLARE
    lFields HTMLDB_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.VC_ARR2;
    vField VARCHAR2(1000);
    BEGIN
    :P31_SHOW_EMPNO := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_ENAME := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_JOB := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_MGR := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_HIREDATE := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_SAL := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_COMM := 0;
    :P31_SHOW_DEPTNO := 0;
    lFields := HTMLDB_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE(:P31_FIELDS);
    FOR i IN lFields.FIRST..lFields.LAST LOOP
    vField := lFields(i);
    IF vField = 'EMPNO' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_EMPNO := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'ENAME' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_ENAME := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'JOB' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_JOB := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'MGR' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_MGR := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'HIREDATE' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_HIREDATE := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'SAL' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_SAL := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'COMM' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_COMM := 1;
    ELSIF vField = 'DEPTNO' THEN
    :P31_SHOW_DEPTNO := 1;
    END IF;
    END LOOP;
    END;
    4 - Finally, add a button that generates the report - this just needs to submit the page and branch back to the same page
    I've used the standard EMP table for this example and my hidden fields are P31_SHOW_fieldname. The code resets the hidden fields to 0, checks if the user has selected the field from the list (P31_FIELDS) and changes the hidden fields value to 1 for all those selected. When the page is re-rendered, the report hides the columns where the hidden field value is 0 and displays those where it is 1. The export option will then only export those fields that are displayed.
    You can see an example of this here:

  • I am running 4 ipod classica through one computer and one itunes account/profile.  The ipods belong to me, husband and 2 kids.  How can the kids now get their own accounts but keep the stuff I have already downloaded for them?  They have their own laptops

    I am currently running 4 ipod classics through my own account/profile on itunes.  They belong to me, my husband and 2 kids. 
    The kids are getting older now and have their own laptops.  I would like them to have their own itunes accounts as they will be away from home much of the time and will want to make their own puchases. 
    How can I set them up so that they are independent from my account, but not lose the content that I have downloaded for them over the years?  (A lot of content).

    You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that.  Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card.  Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account. 
    Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud.  Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account.  To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
    Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.

  • Can two users work on different files of the same project?

    Sorry if this has been asked already...but can two users work
    on different files of the same project? How would that work? Would
    it work something like this?
    1. From RoboHelp 7, user A checks out the entire project.
    2. User A checks in the files they are not working with.
    3. User B checks out the project but can only 'edit' the
    files that have been checked in by user A.
    Is this how the source control works?

    That's the basic idea. User A doesn't actually have to check
    out the whole project, though. RSC will selectively check out only
    the files that are actually getting changed. Both writers will have
    a complete copy of the project on their local machines, but the
    files are read-only until they are literally checked out, which is
    on an as-needed basis unless the writer explicitly checks them out.

  • Can the XML style sheet be embedded in the report file?

    My customer would like to be able to share test reports with several locations. The problem is that sending just the XML report file is not enough. The report file points to a style sheet that must exist at the specified path on the destination PC. It creates problems when one simply wants to email over a test report. I have customized the style sheet slightly to make things easier to read. So, can I embed my custom style sheet in each report file?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    The XML style sheet should not be embedded into the report file. Since XML would represent raw data, you would not include information on how to interpret it. However, there is a way for you to easily reference your style sheet, even when it is on another computer.
    1) Go to Configure >> Report Options in TestStand, and change the style sheet file to your style sheet.
    2) Uncheck the "Store Absolute File Path" box.
    3) Make sure the style sheet is in the same folder as your report.
    You can view this on any computer, and now a relative path is now being used to reference the file.

  • Once CC Apps Downloaded can the install file be copied to each mac for reinstall - have 5 to do?

    Exactly what heading suggests.
    Once I have downloaded my apps from Creative Cloud for 1 mac, can the "installer" file/s be copied to other macs and simply be run from there for installing, rather than having to Download again for each Mac - very time consuming and puts a huge load on our Internet usage.
    Up for about a 4.5GB download x 5 macs - not good
    Gee, wish I had a disk for this . . .

    Does this apply for a TEAM  license (which I have) or only the ENTERPRISE license.
    Do you have a link for that page?

  • In the ReportDocument.Load method it tries to connect using the using the connection information embedded in the Report File

    Post Author: bhaveshbusa
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    In the ReportDocument.Load method it tries to connect using the using the connection information embedded in the Report File. When the application calls ReportDocument.Load(reportFileName). This
    tries to connect to the database using the connection information embedded in
    the "reportFileName". This was only realised on checking the ODBC Trace
    Log. The connection itself is not a problem. The problem is that the embedded
    connection information is related to OLD production system. And failed
    connections had raised some concerns.
    Note: I am using
    SetDataSource to populate the data for the report. So I don't need the
    connection.
    Is there any way I
    can disable this auto-connect?
    Thanks and
    regards,

    I need a help in answering one of the issue encountered last week.
    I have created a database link and tried to access the information from a table using the program written in another language. The password provided was incorrect for that user while creating database link. So we expected that,while retrieving the data, Database connection has to be errored out as password provided is incorrrect.
    But unfortunately, user account was locked out. When i checked with DBAs they mentioned that it tries to connect 16 ports with in a min of time.we were shocked as it STOPS another scheduled jobs with that user. and affects production badly.
    As per the program, it has to connect only one time and yesterday we tried to execute the program in DBAs observation and it errored out as expected. Didn't tried for multiple ports.
    Now the question is, WHY the database connection established 16 times last week and caused user account locked. DBAs are unable to answer it. Any EXPERTs opinion on this would greatly appreciated.
    I have verified managing ports in oracle documentation, it was mentioned that if one port is busy it will try to connect to another port in the range of ports mentioned during the installtion. DBAs verified ports related file and it was blank. and they are not agreeing with this reason. Please HELP me in finding the correct REASON for this.
    is it a NETWORK issue or issue with DATABASE SERVER only?
    Thanks

  • HT1766 Can the backup file for a IPAD be stored and accessed on an external drive?

    Can the backup file for a IPAD be stored on an external drive to free up space on a computer?

    There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.
    The Kingston Wi-Drive, which costs $50 for the 16 Gigabyte, and then $30 more for every 16 gigs more. It works by you turning it on and then accessing the files on it from an app that you download on your iDevice. You can access music, movies, and other stuff. No connections or anything, it works like a WiFi connection, you connect to it from the setting on the iPad under wireless networks.
    Then there is the Seagate GoFlex, which some would recommend over the Wi-Drive. But this one costs $199 and had 500 Gigabytes of storage. It works the sameway as the Kingston: no wires, runs over its wireless connection. You can actually fit up to 300 HD movies on it.

  • Can the Mail files be safe on a network drive?

    Can the Mail files be safe on a network drive? That way more than one computer (same user) can access the mail?

    Depends on what you mean by a "network drive".
    I have "external USB drives", I don't have a network drive.   I had no problems putting the .lrcat files on the external USB drives, and it would surprise me a lot
    if there were a problem putting them on network drives.   "In general", drives are drives, who cares.
    On the other hand, why would you want to?  I have all my photos on a USB drive, but I keep my catalogs (4 of them) on c:\ -- for performance reasons -- I see no reason to do otherwise.  They get backed up and the BACKUPS are then copied to 2 of my 3 external USB drives -- I see no REAL reason to put the catalogs externally or on a network drive -- does not buy me anything other than bad performance.

  • How to allow the user to upload a file from their desktop to MII Server?

    Hi,
    Is there a way for the user to specify a file on their local computer to upload to the MII server for processing?  We have a method that works for uploading from a shared network drive, but now the need/desire is to allow the user to upload a file from their desktop.
    Ideally, this would be a file browser that the user would click on to browse their local desktop and select the file and click "Upload" but not sure what's possible?
    This is using 12.1 SP4.
    Thanks for the help.

  • [LV - TS] How to execute a SEQ file, get the result (PASS/FAIL) and the report file ?

    Hello,
    I'm looking for the most obvious and simple way to, from Labview :
    1- Start the Teststand engine : DONE
    2- Get a list of SEQ files to execute : DONE
    3- Loop through the list to execute each SEQ file : <- found some examples but I have some trouble with the UIMessage stuff
    http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052N-01/tsexamples/infotopics/executing_sequences_using_api_labview/
    4- Get the result of the SEQ execution : <- unsure
    5- Get the XML path+name of the report file generated : <- obviously not easy

    However it remains unclear about how to get a simple
    answer from just running a sequence file out of any
    model so far (Simple Pass). Like I told you, all what
    I need, once the TS engine is started, is a VI with the
    following interface :
    INPUT
    1- TS engine reference
    2- SEQ file path (path or string)
    3- Sequence name to execute
    4- UUT string (optional, but yeah)
    5- error in
    OUTPUT
    1- Result boolean (PASS/FAIL)
    2- Path to XML report
    3- error out
    It would be so cool to just have this
    About the surrounding UI, I'm working on it. The LV

    a SEQ file that matters to me.
