Exclude column from interactive report when exporting data

Hello!
Is it possible to exclude column from exporting (using bi publisher) in interactive report, but having in report. So in report it is, but in export result it isnt :). I know, that I can just not to select this column in "Action" menu before exporting, but then to select it to view in report. But is it possible not to export this column, but having it in report result?
I Just have a checkbox in report, and I dont need to see it in export result.

Empty CSV exports of data from interactive reports.

Currently using version 4.2.1.00.08 of APEX. My application has interactive reports; when I try to export data to CSV file, it is empty. Tried HTML, that just has the control widget for the report. I could swear this used to work. Thanks for any help.

Hi!
Check that the RFC is set as a trusted connection and it uses the current user for the connection.
Check that you use the same user in RSCUSTV3 as in the source system you have set up in RSA1 for the REP and the BI client.
Check that the user you use for this is configured as follow
- On the tab Logon data select System as User Type, SUPER as User group and also enter an initial password; use password welcome.
- On the tab Roles assign the roles SAP_BC_USR_CUA_CLIENT and SAP_BC_USR_CUA_SETUP_CLIENT (Valid From and Valid to should be left empty). In addition, assign the profiles S_BI-WHM_RFC and S_BI-WX_RFC on the tab Profiles.

Download data from interactive report

Hi all. I'm on apex 3.1.1.00.09.
I have this problem: when I download data from interactive report I can download only in CSV and PDF. If I try to download into pdf it creates a file of only 1 KB.
I would know if I must configure my apex in order to download correctly in pdf and if I must configure it in order to download in doc and xls format.
Thanks all for collaboration,
Fabrizio

Thank you for your reply.
I am able to download the csv file, but my problem is: I don't want the column headings to show.
Is it possible to download only the data, not the column headings?

Need to fix the width of a column in interactive report

Hi,
I have a column named 'Comment'. Its have a huge data due to which the lenght of that column in interactive report get increased. I need to fix the length to a desired value.
I used following code in Region Footer:
<style>
table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td[headers=COMMENTS] {
_width: 300px;
min-width: 50px;
max-width: 300px }
</style>
Its solved the problem by fixing the width of the column but the column is not showing the full data now. It is hiding most of its part to fit it in that column.
Please give some idea.
Thanks,
Chandru

Hi,
I believe you will want to add a height specification to allow for multiple lines. And you may want/need to specifiy how you want lines to wrap.
Add (for example):
height: 60px;
white-space: nowrap;
word-wrap: break-word;
There are defaults and several options for white-space and word-wrap. You may want to look them up and give them a try for comparison.

Is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten when importing data via xdp-file?

In an pdf-form designed with LCD everytime the form gets merged with an xdp-datafile content of all fields get overwritten, regardless which data-binding (normal, global, none) is assigned to the fields and regardless if the fields are exluded in the xdp-datafile. Is this normal behavior and is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten?

The xdp-file is first exported from Acrobat Professional 8 (export data as *.xdp) to get the complete structure. Then in the xdp-file some fields are removed manually and other fields are filled with data. When the modified xdp-file is opened again with Acrobat Professional 8 it grabs the original pdf-form and merges the manually filled fields into the form. With the merge all other fields in the form are overwritten, even if they are not defined in the xdp-file. And that is what I want to avoid. I want to merge the xdp-file into the form and keep the data in fields not defined in the xdp-file.

Questions when export data to excel

My platform
Windows2000(Chinese version).
Oracle 9i R2 charset ZHS16GBK
Patch 2323002,2632931,2499827
JDev903 + BI Beans 903a
There are two problems
1. Everything goes well. But when the project is deployed, the Export function will return a error page.
2. When export data to .csv or .txt using BIB control "ExportOptions", it appears that the chinese fonts all are displayed as "????"

We need more information on issue #1. What information does the the
error page contain? If it contains a stack trace / BI Beans error, then
please post it. If it does not, then please look for an exception
stack / error in the servlet log. And finally, does the export work
when running the project in JDeveloper?
Issue #2 can be resolved by setting the export character encoding.
What type of application are you trying to deploy (
JSP, UIX, or Generated Servlet Application )? The mechanism for
specifying the export character encoding is different for each type of
application. UTF-8 encoding works on most systems so that is a safe
default, but the Chinese version of Windows may require a more specific
character set, such as WINDOWS-936 ( Simplified Chinese ), BIG5 (
Traditional Chinese ), or WINDOWS-950 ( Traditional Chinese).

Can we exclude column from well configured streaming

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to exclude some columns from a table level replication?If yes , how ??
Any help is highly appreciable.
Thanks,
Neels

Hello,
Yes you can using rules based transformations to exclude columns from LCRS.
Depending on the version you can us Declarative Rule_Based Transformations as
per
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14229/strms_transfom.htm#STRMS106
or you could come up with an alternative if you are on an older version.
Thanks

Date issue when exporting data to Excel from SSRS report, where date is less than 1/1/1900

Hi,
I am using SSRS report to display the data from database. In that data, One of the column is DATE. when I am exporting to Excel all that dates are displaying fine except 1/1/1800 12:00 AM. Instead of 1/1/1800 12:00 AM it is displaying XXXXXXXXXXXXXX values.
Please help me to fix the issue.
Please let me know if more clarification required.
Thanks In advance.

Hello,
We can use Cstr() function to convert the Date type data to String data. Suppose we have a field named DateTime, please refer to the expression below:
=Cstr(Fields!DateTime.Value)
Then we can get a string type data. There is an article about SSRS expression, you can refer to it.

If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

ORA-20876 in csv export from interactive report = Possibly a bug?

Hi Apex team,
yesterday i tried to download data to csv from an interactive report. The resulting csv file contained a "ORA-20876: Stop APEX Engine" only and no other data. I played around with other reports in my application and had no problems with exports.
After some investigation i found out that the buggy report contains a column of display type "Display as text (based on a LOV, escape special characters)". When I changed this column type to "Standard Report Column" for example, the error didn't appear anymore and the csv export contained complete data.
Maybe this is a bug? The environment is Apex 4.1.1.00.23 on 11g (UTF-8). Is there a workaround available?
Regards,
Jens
Edited by: j.gauger on 06.02.2013 14:10
Additional Information
The problem seems to occur only if a Shared Components LOV of type "Static" is referenced in the IR column.

Hi,
what happens if you take the query from IR report and create a new classic report?
On this report enable csv export and then try the export.
Maybe that (format) data are causing export to fail.
Try to export just one row in your IR report (and classic report), so that you add where rownum < 2.

Column headings are mismatched when export to excel (Data Only)

Hi All,
We have an old Crystal Web Portal designed using CE10 in VS 2003.   The crystal viewer shipped with VS 2003 exports to excel (Data only) in correct order where all the columns headers are matched with the corresponding data.
We have re-written the entire new web portal in VS 2008 with using CE10 on windows 2003 server. Everything works we can view the report, page navigation, export to PDF, export to MS Excel 97-2000.   However when export to MS Excel 97-2000 (Data only) option, the column headings are mismatched with the corresponding data.   I don't understand what changed between VS 2003 Crystal Viewer and VS 2008 Crystal Viewer.   I think this has to be the crystal viewer problem because I'm exporting from the viewer tool bar.
Here is the API referencing in the code:
In Visual Studio I'm referencing all CE10 10.0.3300 version api's. Howerver since Crystal Viewer with VS 2008 is newer and has 10.5.3700 version I'm using CrystalDecision.Shared and CrystalDecision.Web are version 10.5.3700.   These seems to have no problem. The entire web portal works fine.
More about Web Portal:
-User is validated upon login with CE10
-use selects the report from the list
-Report ID is then passed to reportdocument
-reportdocument API loads the report and
-Viwer.reportsource= reportdocument.reportsource
We cannot update Crystal Enterprise 10 right now.   I'm in the middle of deploying new web portal with VS 2008.   I have to resolve the Export excel (Data only) option and have the column headers matched with the data in excel.   I have tried everthing.
Can some help here.
thanks

Hi,
The report saves the printer information and if it can connect to the exact same printer then the print options will get passed to the printer.
If the report is being sent to a different printer, Crystal doesn't know if this new printer will support the same settings, ie. duplex or color. In our case we were setting the report to print duplex printing and landscape. When our application went to print it actually crashed because some of the printers didn't support duplex.
What we did is disable the print button on the viewer and added the PrintDialog control to our form. Use the ReportDocument.PrintOptions method to set the properties for the PrintDialog control.
var printDialog1 = new PrintDialog();
printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
printDialog1.AllowSomePages = true;
if (myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings != null)
     printDialog1.PrinterSettings = myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings; //Use any saved printer settigns
     printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Copies = Convert.ToInt16(copies);
     dr = printDialog1.ShowDialog();
     if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
     myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings = printDialog1.PrinterSettings;     //Save the latest printer settings
     nCopy = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Copies;               //Get the number of Copies
     sPage = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;               //Get the number of Start Page
     ePage = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;                    //Get the number of End Page
     myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterName = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;     //Get the printer name
     myReport.PrintOptions.CustomPaperSource = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSource;
     if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Vertical)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Vertical;
     else if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Horizontal)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Horizontal;
     else if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Simplex)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Simplex;
Hope this helps,
Brian

Column Headers are Jumbled when exporting to 'Excel Data only'

Hi,
When I am exporting a report to 'Excel Data only' the column headers are jumbled in the output,where as the data field are exported in the same order as it is in the report .
They are being exported as
Header:F3   F2    F1
Detail   :F1   F2    F3
Instead of
Header:F1   F2    F3
Detail   :F1   F2    F3
Is there a way I can over come this issue.

Can you explain how exactly the report was designed? Is it happening for every report or only for this report?
Regards,
Raghavendra

Error in exporting from Interactive Report to PDF format

Hello,
i am using APEX and from an Interactive Report i am trying to export using Download | PDF format. The table and corresponding report has only text fields. Database character set is UTF-8. Up to now i haven't been able to get a PDF file that can be open from Adobe Acrobat Reader. Every file fails opening with message like "Adobe Reader could not open filename.pdf, because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). This happens for every report i have tried up to now. If i export report in CSV format all are ok.
Is there a known bug with PDF download of APEX?
TIA

See this link: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/configure_printing.html
FOP & Cocoon are free (just need to install the software and configure) Bi Publisher I believe works only for Standard Reports and no Interactive reports at this time.. If you have the $$ BI Publisher is worth the investment!!
Also, it is rumored that APEX 4.0 will have the PDF generation built in as apposed to the current model where you need to bolt something on..
Thank you,
