Building reports into word document from web application

Is there any package that allows easy report generation into microsoft word from any part of ur application.
thank yuo

Microsoft Word uses a proprietary format that doesn't play well with others. You may try looking at Jakarta POI if you truly need a Word document, but I'm not sure their Word conversions are as advanced as the Excel.
Good luck.
P.S. UR information

Convert rdf report into Word document.

Hello,
I am using Developer 2000 from designing reports.
I nees to convert one of my report(rdf) in word document.
How can i do that??
Thanks..

Hello,
You cannot convert a RDF into a Word Document but you can generate a RTF file from a RDF file.
Example with reports 6i runtime :
rwrun60 report=test destype=file desname=c:\temp\output.rdf desformat=rtf userid=scott/tiger@db

Insert SAP ICONS into from SAP into Word document (OLE)

Hi ,
I want to Insert SAP ICONS into from SAP into Word document (OLE) .
Please let me know how can I do it? I would really appreciate it.

Hello,
Try this out:
(1) Copy program DD_ADD_PICTURE into your own version called ZDD_ADD_PICTURE. Make sure
you select all the checkboxes (including GUI Status and screens).
(2) Paste the modified code at the end of this reply into your ZZ_ADD_PICTURE program.
(3) Run ZZ_ADD_PICTURE for a range of Icons (e.g. enter Icon name ICON_IN* on the selection screen)
(4) When you get the result list, type in ok-code EXPO directly in the ok-code
field (you could also add a button for this function in the GUI status).
(5) Download all the displayed icons as .gif files into a Windows folder
that you have created to hold the icon .gif files (e.g. C:SAPICONS)
(6) Now you can work with the icon files as you would any .gif file. (e.g. In a Word doc, use menu path
Insert -> Picture -> From file.)
Here is the code:

Create/Edit Word documents from Form 6 in the web

How can I create/edit Microsoft Word documents from a form running under IAS.
In client/server I can do it using OLE2.

On the Web the OLE2 option would still work if your Forms server is on a windows machine with word on it. The files will be created on the server and you can get them to the client with the web.show_document built-in.
If you want to create them on the client machine directly you need a Java bean that will activate the COM interface.

Attaching Office Documents from web

We understand attaching documents other than text is only available from GUI planning. Has anyone built a solution to do it from web application?

Yes William,
Go to transaction SE80>MIME repository>public--> BW there you can create a folder. RMC on the folder and then "Import MIME object". Import your word file.
Now in WAD go to your query and insert this small line in your html tab page. You can do some html thing so as to arrange the link where you want. I had given it the name as REPORT.
<A href="/sap/bw/Mime/public/Customer/YOUR FOLDER/YOURFILENAME.doc">YOURLINKNAME</A>
In the above process the path is important. Let me know if does not work.

Read this article in order to get an idea about Java Stored Procedures.
Oracle Developer JAVA STORED PROCEDURES
Simplify with Java Stored Procedures
By Kuassi Mensah
Use Java stored procedures to bridge SQL, XML, Java, and J2EE and Web Services.
Stored procedures allow a clean separation of persistence logic that runs in the database tier from business logic that runs in the middle tier. This separation reduces overall application complexity and increases reuse, security, performance, and scalability.
A major obstacle, however, for widespread adoption of stored procedures is the set of various proprietary, database-dependent implementation languages that different database vendors use. The use of Java-based stored procedures fixes this concern. Oracle has implemented ANSI standards that specify the ability to invoke static Java methods from SQL as procedures or functions. This implementation is called simply "Java stored procedures."
In this article, you will learn how Java stored procedures help simplify and increase the performance of your business logic and extend database functionality. I'll show how Oracle enables the use of Java stored procedures within the database. I'll also look at how Java stored procedures access data, and show how to create a basic Java stored procedure.
PL/SQL or Java
When you think of Oracle stored procedures, you probably think of PL/SQL. Oracle, however, has provided Java support in the database since Oracle8i, to offer an open and portable alternative to PL/SQL for stored procedures. I can hear the $64,000 question: "How do I choose between PL/SQL and Java? Should I forget all the things I've been told about PL/SQL and move on to the greener Java pastures?"
Both languages are suitable for database programming, and each has its strengths and weaknesses. In deciding which language to use, here's a general rule of thumb:
Use PL/SQL for database-centric logic that requires seamless integration with SQL and therefore complete access to database objects, types, and features.
Use Java as an open alternative to PL/SQL for database independence, but also for integrating and bridging the worlds of SQL, XML, J2EE, and Web services.
OracleJVM Lets You Run Java within the Database
Since Oracle8i, Release 1 (Oracle 8.1.5), Oracle has offered a tightly integrated Java virtual machine (JVM) that supports Oracle's database session architecture. Any database session may activate a virtually dedicated JVM during the first Java code invocation; subsequent users then benefit from this already Java-enabled session. In reality, all sessions share the same JVM code and staticsonly private states are kept and garbage collected in an individual session space, to provide Java sessions the same session isolation and data integrity capabilities as SQL operations. There is no need for a separate Java-enabled process for data integrity. This session-based architecture provides a small memory footprint and gives OracleJVM the same linear SMP scalability as the Oracle database.
Creating Java Stored Procedures
There are a few steps involved in turning a Java method into a Java stored procedure. These include loading the Java class into the database using the loadjava utility, and publishing the Java methods using a call specification (Call Spec) to map Java methods, parameter types, and return types to their SQL counterparts. The following section shows how to do this.
I'll use a simple Hello class, with one method, Hello.world(), that returns the string "Hello world":
public class Hello
public static String world ()
return "Hello world";
The Loadjava Utility
Loadjava is a utility for loading Java source files, Java class files, and Java resource files; verifying bytecodes; and deploying Java classes and JAR files into the database. It is invoked either from the command line or through the loadjava() method contained within the DBMS_JAVA class. To load our Hello.class example, type:
loadjava -user scott/tiger Hello.class
As of Oracle9i Release 2, loadjava allows you to automatically publish Java classes as stored procedures by creating the corresponding Call Specs for methods contained in the processed classes. Oracle provides Oracle9i JDeveloper for developing, testing, debugging, and deploying Java stored procedures.
The Resolver Spec
The JDK-based JVM looks for and resolves class references within the directories listed in the CLASSPATH. Because Oracle database classes live in the database schema, the OracleJVM uses a database resolver to look for and resolve class references through the schemas listed in the Resolver Spec. Unlike the CLASSPATH, which applies to all classes, the Resolver Spec is applied on a per-class basis. The default resolver looks for classes first in the schema in which the class is loaded and then for classes with public synonyms.
loadjava -resolve <myclass>
You may need to specify different resolvers, and you can force resolution to occur when you use loadjava, to determine at deployment time any problems that may occur later at runtime.
loadjava -resolve -resolver "((* SCOTT) (foo/bar/* OTHERS)
(* PUBLIC))"
Call Spec and Stored Procedures Invocation
To invoke a Java method from SQL (as well as from PL/SQL and JDBC), you must first publish the public static method through a Call Spec, which defines for SQL the arguments the method takes and the SQL types it returns.
In our example, we'll use SQL*Plus to connect to the database and define a top-level Call Spec for Hello.world():
SQL> connect scott/tiger
SQL> create or replace function helloworld return
VARCHAR2 as language java name 'Hello.world () return
java.lang.String';
Function created.
You can then invoke the Java stored procedure as shown below:
SQL> variable myString varchar2[20];
SQL> call helloworld() into :myString;
Call completed.
SQL> print myString;
MYSTRING
Hello world
Java stored procedures are callable, through their Call Spec, from SQL DML statements (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT, CALL, EXPLAIN PLAN, LOCK TABLE, and MERGE), PL/SQL blocks, subprograms, and packages, as well as database triggers. The beauty of Call Spec is that stored procedure implementations can change over time from PL/SQL to Java or vice versa, transparently to the requesters.
Call Spec abstracts the call interface from the implementation language (PL/SQL or Java) and therefore enables sharing business logic between legacy applications and newer Java/J2EE-based applications. At times, however, when invoking a database-resident Java class from a Java client, you may not want to go through the PL/SQL wrapper. In a future release, Oracle plans to provide a mechanism that will allow developers to bypass the Call Spec.
Advanced Data-Access Control
Java stored procedures can be used to control and restrict access to Oracle data by allowing users to manipulate the data only through stored procedures that execute under their invoker's privileges while denying access to the table itself. For example, you can disable updates during certain hours or give managers the ability to query salary data but not update it, or log all access and notify a security service.
Sharing Data Logic Between Legacy and J2EE Applications
Because legacy applications and J2EE applications both invoke stored procedures through the Call Spec, the same data logic can be shared between J2EE and non-J2EE worlds. Thanks to Call Spec, this data logic can be shared regardless of the implementation language used (whether PL/SQL or Java).
Autogeneration of Primary Keys for BMP Entity Beans
When using BMP for EJB entity beans, a bean instance can be uniquely identified by the auto-generated primary key associated with the newly inserted data as a return value for ejbCreate(). You can retrieve this value within ejbCreate() in one database operation by using a stored procedure that inserts the corresponding data and retrieves or computes the primary key. Alternatively, you could insert the data and retrieve the corresponding key (or ROWID) in one SQL statement, using the RETURN_GENERATED_KEYS feature in JDBC 3.0. However, the stored procedure approach is more portable across JDBC driver versions and databases.
You can implement this pattern with these three steps:
Create the Java stored procedure, defining a public static Java method insertAccount() within a public GenPK class. This method will insert data, compute a unique key (by passing out a sequence number), and return the computed key as primary key.
Define the Call Spec.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE insertAccount(owner IN
varchar, bal IN number, newid OUT number)
AS LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'GenPK.insertAccount(
java.lang.String [])';
Invoke the stored procedure within ejbCreate().
Public AccountPK ejbCreate(String ownerName, int balance) throws CreateException
try {
CallableStatement call = conn.prepareCall{
"{call insertAccount(?, ?, ?)}"};
return new AccountPK(accountID);
Custom Primary Key Finders for CMP Entity Beans
Finder methods are used for retrieving existing EJB entity bean instances. Primary key finders allow you to retrieve a uniquely identified EJB instance. For CMP entity beans, the EJB container automatically generates the primary key finder findByPrimaryKey() method, based on declarative description. In some situations, however, you might need more control; for example, you may need a specialized finder such as findByStoredProcKey(). In these situations, you can use Java stored procedures in conjunction with an object relational framework (such as Oracle9i Application Server [Oracle9iAS] TopLink) to implement a custom primary key finder method. After you define the EJB finder as a REDIRECT or NAMED finder, TopLink will generate the SQL query for retrieving the bean instance.
Data-Driven EJB Invocation
In a data-driven architecture, business logic invocation can be triggered as a result of database operations (such as inserts, updates, or deletes). A Java stored procedure implementing the data logic can be declared as a database trigger to invoke EJBs running in a middle-tier J2EE application server. You can make EJB calls by using either standard remote method invocation (RMI) over Interoperable Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP), using a J2EE 1.3 compatible server, or RMI over a vendor-specific transport protocol (such as ORMI with Oracle9iAS/OC4J or RMI over T3 with BEA WebLogic). Each application server vendor has its own optimized protocol while providing RMI over IIOP for interoperability. Oracle9iAS supports both RMI calls over IIOP and ORMI protocols.
Data-Driven Messaging
Oracle9i Database embeds Advanced Queuing (AQ), which is an integrated, persistent, reliable, secure, scalable, and transactional message-queuing framework. Oracle exposes AQ features to Java developers through the standard Java Messaging System (JMS) API. Java stored procedures can invoke AQ operations through the JMS interface to allow fast, intra-session, scalable, data-driven messaging.
Java stored procedures can use JMS to invoke AQ operations. You can implement this pattern in four steps:
Create and start the JMS Queue (to do so, embed the following operations within a SQL script):
execute dbms_aqadm.create_queue_table(queue_table =>
'queue1', queue_payload_type =>
'SYS.AQ$_JMS_TEXT_MESSAGE', comment => 'a test queue',
multiple_consumers => false, compatible => '8.1.0');
execute dbms_aqadm.create_queue( queue_name => 'queue1',
queue_table => 'queue1' );
execute dbms_aqadm.start_queue(queue_name => 'queue1');
Create the Java stored procedure (a code snippet is shown):
public static void runTest(String msgBody)
try
// get database connection
ora_drv = new OracleDriver();
db_conn = ora_drv.defaultConnection();
// setup sender (cf online code sample)
// create message
s_msg = s_session.createTextMessage(msgBody);
// send message
sender.send(s_msg);
s_session.commit();
// receive message
r_msg = (TextMessage) receiver.receive();
r_session.commit();
// output message text
String body = r_msg.getText();
System.out.println("message was '"+body+"'");
Create the Call Spec:
create or replace procedure jmsproc (t1 IN VARCHAR)
as language java name 'jmsSample.main (java.lang.String[])';
Invoke the stored procedure:
call jmsproc('hello');
Database-Assisted Web Publishing (Cache Invalidation)
One of the common issues application architects must face is how to cache database information reliably to increase overall system performance. JCACHE is an upcoming standard specification (JSR 107) that addresses this problem. It specifies an approach for temporary, in-memory caching of Java objects, including object creation, shared access, spooling, invalidation, and consistency across JVMs. It can be used to cache read-mostly data such as product catalogs and price lists within JSP. Using JCACHE, most queries will have response times an order of magnitude faster because of cached data (in-house testing showed response times about 15 times faster).
In order to track all the changes to the origin data and refresh the cached data, a Java stored procedure is attached to a table as a trigger. Any change to this table will result in the automatic invocation of this stored procedure, which in turn will call out a defined JSP to invalidate the JCACHE object that maps its state to the database table. Upon invalidation, the very next query will force the cache to be refreshed from the database. Next Steps

Extending Database Functionality
One of the great things about running Java code directly in the database is the ability to implement new functionality by simply loading the code or library and using the Call Spec to make the entry points (public static methods) available to SQL, PL/SQL, Java, J2EE, and non-Java APIs. Oracle9i Database customers can easily extend database functionality. Oracle itself leverages this capability for new utilities and packages such as the XML Developer Kits (XDKs).
Bridging SQL, PL/SQL, Java, J2EE, .NET, and XML
The Oracle XDK is written in Java and exposes its public methods as Java stored procedures, extending the database's XML programmability. SQL, PL/SQL, Java, J2EE, and non-Java (.NET) business logic all have access to the XML parser, the XSLT processor, the XPath engine, and XML SQL Utility (XSU).
The XML parser is accessible through the xmlparser and xmldom packages. XSU is a Java utility that generates an XML document from SQL queries or a JDBC ResultSet, and writes data from an XML document into a database table or view. Using XSU, XML output can be produced as Text, DOM trees, or DTDs. XSU is exposed to PL/SQL through the dbms_xmlquery and dbms_xmlsave packages.
Conclusion
The integration of the Oracle database with a Java VM enables the creation of portable, powerful, database-independent data logic and persistence logic. The loose coupling of business logic that runs in the middle tier with data logic that runs in the database tier improves application scalability, performance, flexibility, and maintenance.

Write to word document from oracle plsql

Hi,
Please provide methods to create and write to a word document from ORACLE PLSQL.We tried using UTL FILE package but it writes as ascii text.

Divs wrote:
The server m/c operating system is unix.so we need to invoke the procedure from Unix Os.In that case - not possible. For Windows COM (Component Object Model) to work, Oracle database need to be able to call and load the COM dynamic link libraries.
Not to say that it is not possible. Have never used DCOM (the Distributed COM interface), and not exactly sure what it requires. Assuming that DCOM is not usable from a Linux perspective, you can still provide a manual interface. You create a NT tcp/ip service that exposes the COM interface calls that you need - in a secure fashion (even better - you can provide a higher level abstraction layer for the COM interface that does the specific job you need to be done).
From Oracle you can then use PL/SQL's UTL_TCP package to open a connection to it and via this service craft a Word document on that Windows server.
Are there web services for MS Office? I know Google is pushing that aspect hard (and embroiled in lawsuits with the US government and Microsoft about tender awards in this aspect). Now if Microsoft has "+office-on-the-web+", then one can create a Word document via a web browser. This means that there is an underlying web service - and that this can be called and used. The Evolution (Open Source Mail Reader) project for example uses the MS Exchange web service interface to provide a seamless interface to Exchange mail accounts (have used this everyday for a number of years now).
The real question I would however ask is why Word specifically? Why not a more common format like PDF? You can even consider generating XML instead. Both Microsoft and Open Office and others are supporting XML formatted word processing documents (as oppose to older proprietary and binary formats).
And why not use a Report Writer? I'm a big fan of doing as much as possible in Oracle (using PL/SQL most of the time). But certain things, like generating Word-style documents would be better done (and more flexible too) using a Report Writer.

Am unable to insert table and graphs into word document in labwindow/CVI? can any one help me ?

Am unable to insert table and graphs into word document in labwindow/CVI? can any one help me ?

Are you using the Word Report Generation instrument? You can find it in toolslib\activex\word\wordreport.fp under the CVI directory.
The instrument comes with a sample project that shows how to include table and graphs in a Word document: see samples\activex\word\wordrpt.cws in the samples foder of your CVI installation.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw doesn't print Microsoft Word documents from PC

Hello.
I've recently bought a brand new HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw printer. The functions seemed really nice and the price was acceptable. I've brought it to my home, installed it following the manual, connected it to Wi-Fi etc. It generally works fairly well. PDF files are printed perfectly well, the scaning function works and it's generally a nice piece of technology.
The only problem is that it just doesn't want to pring Microsoft Word documents from my PC. It prints it perfectly when I try to print .docx from my smartphone using the app, but it doesn't respond when I try doing it from the PC.
My Office version is 2007 Enterprise. Do you have any idea what I should do?
Thank you in advance

Thank you a lot for a quick reply, Cbert. It's fantastic to see HP actually reading their forums and trying to help!
I'll try plugging it into the wall and directly to the PC with a USB, we'll see if it works out.
About Word, i've already tried reinstalling Word, even installed a 2003 version to check if it works with that. Well it doesn't. And as i've written before, I tried turning some .docx files to .pdf using a converter, but it still doesn't print them.
Anyway, i'll try the first two points and keep you updated, thanks!

Issue with receiving response from web application

Hi,
I have configured B2B with business protocol as 'Custom document document over Internet', document exchange protocol as AS2-1.1 and transport protocol HTTPS1.1 to invoke a web application deployed in Oracle Application server. B2B is able to invoke the web application with HTTPS request which contains an xml.
I have set the acknowledgment mode as 'Sync' and 'Is acknowledgement handled by B2B' as true. But while receiving the response from web application which is an xml, B2B is showing the error as
Description: Unable to identify the document protocol of the message

I am able to see the HTTP response in b2b_dc_transport.log. In transport log it is not showing any error. Please help me to fix this issue.

Hi,
Request and Response should be part of same agreement. I hope you are not confused between Acknowledgement and Response. Acknowledgement can be received in the same session (sync mode) but Response will always come in a different session and will be treated as a different document. If, for request, party A is initiator and B is responder then for response party B will be initiator and party A will be responder (as Requset and Response are two docs in case of Custom Document)
For configuring X-Path, please refer section 8.3.11 Configuring the XPath Expression for a Custom XML Document at below link -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/integrate.1012/b19370/busact_coll.htm#sthref784
Please let us know whether you are trying to receive a response or Ack?
Regards,
Anuj
