How do I generate a report in text format

How do I generate a report in text format and send it to both a file and to a printer?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I run a series of tests on multiple stations and I need to generate a report, both electronic and one to be printed for a DHR (device history record), for each station. If I use file i/o as you suggested is the preferred approach to generate an electronic file and make the report from that, or generate both the electronic and hard copy report from arrays as the measurement data is acquired. Note that the electronic data is more detailed than the data in the hardcopy report.

SSRS reports in text format

hi
how can i save a report in text format using ssrs 2008 R2

Hi Gourav,
By default, SQL Server Reporting Services render a report to .CSV File Extension with CSV rendering extension. While device information settings for the CSV rendering extension allow us to change its format from .csv to .txt format, we can modify FileExtension
setting in the RSReportserver.config file as below:
Please navigate to RSReportserver.config file: <drive:>\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\RSReportserver.config.
Backup the RSReportserver.config file before we modify it, open the RSReportserver.config file with Notepad format.
In the <Render> section, modify the code for the CSV extension like this:
<Extension Name="CSV" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering">
 <OverrideNames>
 <Name Language="en-US">TXT (Pipe Delimited Text File)</Name>
 </OverrideNames>
 <Configuration>
 <DeviceInfo>
 <FileExtension>TXT</FileExtension>
 </DeviceInfo>
 </Configuration>
</Extension>
Save the RSReportserver.config file.
For more information about CSV Device Information Settings, please see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155365(v=sql.105).aspx
If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

How can we generate the reports in html or text file formats?

Hi,
Is there any package that can help in creating HTMLDB reports in .txt files or .html files? (Similar to TEXT_IO in Oracle Forms)
How can we generate the reports in html or text file formats from HTMLDB?
Thanks in Advance

Hello all.
Bi Publisher is great, but has a very high price tag. It's even more expensive than Forms & Reports Services. We are considering APEX to replace Forms & Reports on the web, but the reporting limitations are still a problem.
I wonder if there is another option.
Thanks

How can we generate the report of backup,tablesapcefrom OEM / RMAN

How can we generate the report of backup status,tablesapce(usedf,free space) for all the databases from OEM / RMAN
1.)we need generate the report of tablespace used,free, archive...
2.)How can we generate the Backup status report also

1.)we need generate the report of tablespace used,free, archive...There are DBA_* views that expose the necessary information. They are documented in the Reference Manual.
2.)How can we generate the Backup status report alsoThere are rman commands that give that. They are documented in the Backup and Recovery User's Guide.
=================================================
Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to [url tahiti.oracle.com]tahiti.oracle.com.
Locate the link for your Oracle product and version, and click on it.
You are now at the entire documentation set for your selected Oracle product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab (for 10.x) or the "Master Book List" link (for 11.x) you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Is the Design in Character Units set to Yes?
How are you viewing your layout in report editor? Are you viewing with Grid?
If it is Yes and with grid, try to fit your layout objects within the Grid.

Generate Portal reports in PDF format

How can I generate Portal reports with the output in PDF format and send it as an attachment using email (UTL_SMTP)?
Best

Portal itself does not have the facility (unless they've added it recently but that would seem to me to make no sense). Use a report writer (the run-time library for Oracle Reports is part of the 9ias install) which have such facilities and allows the resultant file to be saved on the reports server which you can then send as an attachment using a proc you write with utl_smtp package (although, some report writers may already have that facility built in). If you don't like that option, Adobe sells packages that provide APIs to convert files into PDFs (you write the file to the server using the utl_file package assuming the db is Oracle, you could also write to the client's FSO but that's bad form). Or, if your really over-ambitous, you can attempt to write your own application to convert the file but then you'd need to know the PDF internals (and don't re-invent the wheel anyway). As above, you'd need to write an smtp-based package to pick up those files.

How to create a FSG report in pdf format

How to create a FSG report in pdf format?
Thanks In Advance

Hi,
There is an enhancement request at user group review to create FSG's in PDF format. However, I transformed the FSG output by using ascii2pdf shareware software (do a search on google.) I created a shell script that did the transformation and emailed the report from Oracle Apps. It seems to work ok.

How can i save a data in text format

Message Edited by Tikoy on 04-14-2010 11:30 PM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
If your data is in an array, the easiest way is to use the ArrayToFile function.
It automatically creates a file and puts your data in it according to the format you provide.
If you have individual samples that you need to write once in a while, you can either collect them into an array and then use ArrayToFile or open a file with fopen and write them as they are acquired with fwrite.
Hope this helps,

Hi ,
One 'simple' way is by using the DBMS_SCHEDULER db package and the procedure CREATE_JOB(....) using as job_type the value 'EXECUTABLE'...
Read for further info in 'PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference'.
If you have access to OEM ... you can configure this there using wizard.....
Other way is to use the External Procedure call capabiblity of Oracle DB Server...:

How to generate one report in multiple formats with FOP or BIP?

Hi all,
Is it possible to generate multiple formats of one report in a single "call" using Apache FOP or BI Publisher? (something similar to reports bursting).
Right now I can only select one format at a time.
Thank you,
Ana-Maria

Hi Ana-Maria,
When you enable printing on a report region or add a button to download a report query to your application, then you get a single document download. How would you see this working with "multiple formats"? Given that APEX is a development environment, you can pretty much implement anything you like. The built-in printing capabilities in APEX come with an API that allow for customization of the default functionality, e.g. you can use apex_util.download_print_document to dynamically assign report layouts at rumtime or to use you own XML data sources or XSL-FO style sheets. More relevant to you question though, there's also apex_util.get_print_document. What that allows you to do is to generate report documents inside the database and e.g. store them in database tables or email them out to a list of recipients. You can call this API as often as you like to, requesting any combination of available report formats.
The API function is documented here:

Generate a report in text file format

Hello Experts,
I need to write a program to generate a report in a text file format which is later saved on a directory in the application server. I have the fields with the sources defined and also the filters, selections, rows and columns. For example:-
0company code (US) as the filter, 0CALDAY as the selection, CUSTNAM as the object in the row with sources coming from BUKRS and ZSD_CCUST. Can someone initiate or direct me to an already existing forum or throw some light on the issue.
Thanks,

Hi,
As mentioned above, the Open Hub service allows to extract data from an InfoCube/ODS/InfoObject and then store it a database table or flat file stored in the application server. You can start in transaction RSBO and create an InfoSpoke there.
To schedule an extraction using an InfoSpoke, you need to place it in a process chain.

How can we generate a report in master data?

hi,
can we generate a report in master data,if yes pl give me the procedure, i am un able to get it.
thanks & regards
venkat

Hi,
Once we make the MAster infoobject as the data target, then we can create the report on the master data. to make the IO as Data target , you just need to mention the tick mark for Infoprovide check box in the MAster data /Texts tab page of the IO.
help says that:
InfoProvider:
This indicator specifies whether the characteristic is an InfoProvider.
If you want to use a characteristic as an InfoProvider, you have to assign an InfoArea to the characteristic. The system displays the characteristic in the InfoProvider tree in the Data Warehousing Workbench. You can use the characteristic as an InfoProvider in reporting and analysis.
You can only use a characteristic as an InfoProvider if the characteristic contains texts or attributes.
You can define queries for the characteristic (more precisely, for the master data of the characteristic) if you are using a characteristic as an InfoProvider. In this case, on the Attributes tabstrip, you are able to switch-on dual-level navigation attributes (navigation attributes for navigation attributes) for this characteristic in its role as InfoProvider.
