     rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
     repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT2');

You can use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT with CACHE type, and WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to view the document on the screen.
In the Forms help you should find examples.

Here you go..Just follow these steps blindly and you are done.
1) Create a year prompt with presentation variable as pv_year
2) Create a report say Mid report with year column selected 3 times
- Put a filter of pv_year presentation variable on first year column with a default value say @{pv_year}{2008}
- Rename the second time column say YEAR+1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)+1
- Rename the second time column say YEAR-1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)-1
Now when you will run Mid Report, this will give you a records with value as 2008 2009 2007
3) Create your main report with criteria as Year and Measure col
- Change the fx for year column as CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)
- Now put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = greater than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report
Use values in Column = YEAR-1
- Again,put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = less than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report (incase it doesn't allow you to select then select any other request first and then select Mid Report)
Use values in Column = YEAR+1
This will select Year > = 2007 AND Year < = 2009. Hence the results will be for year 2007,2008,2009
This will 100% work...

How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file.

How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file if the report has more than 1000 pages.
I tried with previewer option File --> Generate to file --> Delimited file, but the report engine is crashing.Not generating .TXT file.
I observed that this option is not working for more than 400 pages.
I am using Oracle reports 6i version.
Plz suggest me to generate .TXT file from Report previewer.

You can specify a delimiter (a character or string of characters) to separate the data (boilerplate or field objects) in your report output in either of the following ways:
On the command line using the DELIMITER keyword.
In the Delimited Output dialog box or DelimitedData Output dialog box (displayed with File > Generate to File > Delimited or File > Generate to File > DelimitedData) in Reports Builder.

How can print a report from form 6i, when I press a button?

hi Friends,
How can print a report from form 6i, when I press a button?
When i press a button from Form 6i, the report should print through printer.
I have done it by using report parameter DESTYPE Printer but problem is that when I press a button printer dialogue box appear and then I give command Print to printer, I don’t want to show Printer dialogue box.
I want when I press a button form Forms 6i , printer will print my report directly.
Please send me the solution of this problem.
Best regards,
Shahzad

Hi
If You are using Client server application then to passing to Add all Print Parameter in the Host Command.
Means Print command in unix to Host(lp.............) and Other Parameter to file name of the report to print.
If You not Use Client Server Application the Also Passing a Host Command in Button-Pressed Event and Run.

How to access Oracle Apps 11i forms using Vmware Player?

Hi,
I have installed Oracle Apps 11i on native OS OEL5 Server and guest OS Windows XPP using Vmware Player.Now how to access Oracle Apps 11i forms from Windows XPP using Vmware on my OEL5 Server Desktop?
Thank's
Regard's
Rerry

Hi,
If you mean how to access eBusiness Suite from within the Virtual Machine, then you just navigate to the same URL you normally would. You may need to put the machine alias in your hosts file if you are referencing it via machine name rather than IP address.
If you mean that you want to load the form in forms builder (for example) then you need to FTP the form from server to client (as you normally would) and then open it in your client (XP virtual machine).
If you want to use Workflow Builder (as per your original requirement) then you need to ensure that the TNSNAMES.ora file in the Workflow Builder home has an entry for your instance on Linux, and then you should be able to connect to the database directly.

How to run Oracle Report in new window

Hi,
There appear to be many threads regarding this issue, but so far I've been unable to piece together a solution to my problem.
My requirements are quite simple really.
- Invoke an Oracle Report from an HTMLDB page
- Pass parameters form the page to the report URL
- Run the report in a new window
I have created a simple example at:
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=36506:1
Page 1 contains the following HTML Header attribute
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function callMyPopup (url){
w = open(url,"winLov","");
if (w.opener == null)
w.opener = self;
w.focus();
</script>
The URL i wish to invoke is
http://myappserver/reports/rwservlet?test/test@test+report=test.rdf+&P1_PARAMETER.
My question is, where would I put the code to invoke the URL? I'm trying to use the following code
javascript:callMyPopup('http://myappserver/reports/rwservlet?test/test@test+report=test.rdf+&P1_PARAMETER.');
I've tried putting this in a branch but I get a 'Page can not be displayed' error.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Andrew

Hi,
I'm trying to invoke an oracle report through a button in apex2.2. Please let me know how to display the report in a new window.
I have put the URL as of now in the branch of the button, and the report is getting displayed in the same window.
I've read some of the posts and put the URL as the target of the button instead of a branch and also used the javascript:popupURL(), but it still doesnt work for me. The URL works fine without the javascript.
I have put the URL as of now in the branch of the button, and the report is getting displayed in the same window.
Thanks in advance,
Priyanka

How to run Oracle Reports 6i

Can any 1 pls help how to execute the report from plsql or scheduled job and not from a form
I have a report that works fine, The concern now is that somebody will have to manually run this process. It should be something automated, wherein it will run on it's own
Some batch job which will trigger automatically as per the pre defined schedule
Thx in advance
Imran

Hi Imran,
If the job is to be scheduled on unix... do you have an report server rwrun60 on your unix machine? (in other words can you deploy your reports on unix?) If so it will be a lot easier not to use dbms_job but just schedule it with the unix scheduler CRON.
Then you can create a shell script (.bat is used in windows , on unix it should be , actually you even don't need an extention, .unx or .sh)
eg for your script
#!/bin/ksh
ORACLE_HOME=<path to your oracle home on unix>
ORACLE_SID=<SID of the instance your report needs to run on>
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
WORKINGDIR=<your directory where your reports are
export ORACLE_HOME PATH ORACLE_SID WORKINGDIR
cd WORKINGDIR
# if you want more than one report to run at the same time you can use this loop
for i in `ls *.rep`
do
rwrun60 module=$i userid=..... destype=printer (you can of course use other parameters too)
done
*If you want just a single report leave the loop out and put name of report afeter module=
if you save the file ask your unix admins to make it executable and to schedule it with cron on the unix machine
That's all
I have several hundreds reports running this way (on Linux with 10g report server)
Hope it helps
Erwin
In answer to you latest question to run from pl/sql it can but you need to be able to run a "host" command from your database
one way to do it with java class
install these two java sources on your instance
(you can leave the FEP1_ out of course)
CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "FEP1_CaptureStream" AS
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
class FEP1_CaptureStream implements Runnable {
private final InputStream is;
private final String type;
private final OutputStream redirect;
private boolean redirected = false;
FEP1_CaptureStream(InputStream is, String type, OutputStream redirect)
this.is = is;
this.type = type + ">";
this.redirect = redirect;
FEP1_CaptureStream(InputStream is, String type)
this(is, type, null);
FEP1_CaptureStream(InputStream is)
this(is, " ", null);
public void run()
try {
PrintWriter pw = null;
if (redirect != null) {
pw = new PrintWriter(redirect);
redirected = true;
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line=null;
while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(type + line);
if (redirected) {
pw.println(line);
if (redirected) {
pw.flush();
pw.close();
br.close();
isr.close();
} catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace();
second source
CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "FEP1_ExecOSCmd" AS
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class FEP1_ExecOSCmd {
public static void main (String args[])
int rc = 0;
if (args.length < 1) {
System.out.println("USAGE: java ExecOSCmd \'cmd\' ");
System.exit(1);
try {
String cmd = args[0];
FileOutputStream fos = null;
if (args.length == 2 ) {
fos = new FileOutputStream(args[1]);
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = rt.exec(cmd);
FEP1_CaptureStream err = new FEP1_CaptureStream(p.getErrorStream(), "ERR");
Thread e = new Thread(err);
/* NOTE we do not join the error thread. If there was no
Error it may never return. We would wait forever for it to
return thus janging this process */
e.start();
FEP1_CaptureStream out = new FEP1_CaptureStream(p.getInputStream(),
"OUT", fos);
Thread o = new Thread(out);
o.start();
try {
rc = p.waitFor();
/* Handle exceptions for waitFor() */
} catch (InterruptedException intexc) {
System.out.println("Interrupted Exception on waitFor: " +
intexc.getMessage());
if (fos !=null) {
o.join(); // need to wait for the output to finish.
fos.flush();
fos.close();
System.out.println("ExitValue: " + rc);
} catch (Throwable t) {
System.out.println("ExitValue: " + rc);
t.printStackTrace();
Now create a package or standalone procedure to wrap this code
PROCEDURE EXECUTECMD
(CMD VARCHAR2
IS
LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'FEP1_ExecOSCmd.main(java.lang.String[])';
put security ok and then you can use this procedure in a another
eg
EXECUTECMD('/mybin/start_reports.sh');
this will start the sh script
or
eg
EXECUTECMD('/Oracle/bin/rwrun60 module=.....');
or create a string with all your params and pass it to the command
Be aware that this command executes on the server where your instance is running!

How to call a report in forms?

Hello
I want to call a report in forms, but it always failures and I couldn't find any whitepapers or anything else on OTN.
I'm using reports & forms 10g release 2 and a standalone forms & reports service (release2).
I've created a simple report and store it as .jsp which based on view (already exist with data). In forms I create a button and I just want to show it on a seperate window (as PDF).
How does it work? And which set_report_object_property do I need?
Thanks in advance for any ideas or links
Remo

I put a pic on the web of my standalone forms&reports service.
I couldn't figure out, what is the problem there. Start time of reports service is not available!
http://ora.lausitz-elektronik.de/image/status.gif
I also got the error message which is already described in this thread
a binding error which I couldn't resolve :(
