Calling 10g Report from 6i Form

A 6i client-server form has a call to a 10g report in the form of a URL.
The HOST command calls Internet Explorer and with the URL appended. This, however, keeps the form locked until IE is closed.
Is there a way around this or a better way to call a URL from 6i Forms?
Thank you.

Found an example. It seems to work fine.
I believe this is replaced in Forms 10g by web.show_document though.
win_api_shell.winexec(vcCommand, WIN_API.SW_SHOWNORMAL, FALSE);

hi
try something like this.
DECLARE
charWinHandle VARCHAR2(50);
numWinHandle NUMBER;
BEGIN Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'BUSY');
charWinHandle := Get_Item_Property('Control.Rep',Window_Handle);
numWinHandle := To_Number(charWinHandle);
:Item('Control.CrystalReport1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.WindowParentHandle
:= numWinHandle;
:Item('Control.CrystalReport1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.WindowState := 2;
:Item('CONTROL.CRYSTALREPORT1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.Connect
:= 'DSN=;UID=' || Get_Application_Property(UserName) ||
';pwd=' || Get_Application_Property(password) || ';dsq=;';
Crystal_CrystalCtrl.ReportFileName( :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').interface,
'C:\Sample_Rep.Rpt' );
Set_Window_Property( Forms_Mdi_Window, Window_State,Maximize );
Set_Window_Property( 'MAIN', Window_State, Maximize );
:reptitle := 'Report Preview Window';
numWinHandle := Crystal_CrystalCtrl.PrintReport( :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').interface );
Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'DEFAULT');
END;NOTE: Change the report name and path according to your required file name and path in
the "Crystal_CrystalCtrl.ReportFileName" method call. Also, the connection string shown
assumes that you will use the current USER and PASSWORD for the Form.
- To make the above Form generic so that you can run any Crystal report from it, then create
a parameter for the report name and pass it to the Form using CALL_FORM from any other Form.
Then just replace the file name with the passed parameter.
-. Run the Form
If its correct/helpful please mark it thanks.

**How to call a report from a form by passing a specfic value?????

Hi Expert,
I want to call a report from a form.My problem scenario like, a user is login to his account and there is a option called ADMIT CARD(Push Button).Now when he pressed the button a report will generate.I want that when he pressed the button the user id of the user will passed to the report and the report will generate corresponding to his details which was stored in the database.This scenario is like any online admit card.
Suppose I want a details report of employee whose employee_id=100.How could I pass this value(employee id) to report which will generate a report details.
Thanks,

Calling a Report from a Form

I have uploaded my form to the app server and compiled to Linux. I have copied my RDF file to the reports_path/demo directory. I can run the report via a link from our portal using the URL as follows:
/reports/rwservlet?report=IndRpt.rdf&desformat=pdf&destype=cache&userid=' target="_blank"
That opens the report in a separate window, which is what we want. So far, so good.
I can run the form via a link from our portal as well using the URL as follows:
/forms/frmservlet?config=bsc_ind
The config section hides all the form parameters very nicely.
In the portal, I created a Report Server Access portlet, REP_OMHAST2_MIDTIER, and use the following set_report_object calls in my form:
repid := find_report_object('IndRep');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'PDF');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_omhast2_midtier');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,ls_param);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
/*Display report in the browser*/
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://omhast2.omh.state.ny.us:7777/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=rep_omhast2_midtier ','_blank');
All that comes right out of the white paper.
Now here's the weird part, I have never seen this before. When I click my "Show Report" button in my form, the report seems to be running, but then I get a very strange dark grey, square icon superimposed over my mouse pointer. The icon has a small yellow "starburst" pattern with a tiny red exclamation point inside. The report does not appear on screen.
Incidentally, all of this works correctly when I run the same scenario on my workstation using the call to rwserver as: rwserver server=rep_omhast2_midtier. But when we port it to the app server, it does not run. I think it has to be in the way the form calls the report because the report will run as a stand-alone object.
Anything apparent to anyone out there?

Well, it looks like I stumped the band. And with good reason. Sorry for the error. The problem was that the user running the form and the report had a pop-up blocker that was blocking the report. The form and the report ran from another machine. I allowed pop-ups from the report's URL and that enabled the report to appear.
So, here we have another example of how to call a report from a form. Again, I am sorry for any angst this may have caused.

Calling Crystal Reports from Oracle Forms 10G

Hi everyone,
I am trying to call a crystal report from Oracle Forms 10G.
I have a button on my Form which when clicked calls a Crystal Report which the uaser then wants to save as a PDf file.
Can someone please send me the code to do this and also the exact steps that are to be followed.
Thanks
Fm.

Hi Andreas,
I am trying to call the crystal report from an Oracle Form using a URL. No batch file is being used here.
I am looking for a peice of code similar to run_product or run_report built in in Oracle which calls an Oracle report from an Oracle Form.
Also I dont want to display the report on a screen or a window in Oracle Forms. I would like it to run just as we run an Oracle Report from an Oracle Form.
Is that possible ? If yes please let me know the steps to do this.
Thanks

Can we call 10g Report from Form-6i???

Hi buddies.....Can we call a report developed in 10g reports from a 6i Form using Run_Report_Object???

Hi,
you can run the reports in 6i. There won't be any problem. I have checked with the RDF file.
I don't know whether the REP file which is generated in 10g can be opened in 6i or not.
Regards,
Manu.

Call 10g report from 4.5 form

Hi everyone,
Can anyone please tell me, how can i call a 10g report from a 4.5 form? Which are the implications on both sides?
thanks in advance,
MC
Please, can anyone help me?

All of these suggestions are limited because of the forms engine and plsql engine within forms. You will have to try them. And none of these configurations are supported by oracle.
Use the old run_product. You will have to install reports runtime on every client
RUN_PRODUCT(product, document, commmode, execmode, location,
list, display);Try to make a call to a package in the database that calls utl_http, which makes a call to your reports server via a url.
Maybe an OLE or VBX call out to IE?
All of these are stabs in the dark.
Try upgrading forms!!!

Calling a report from a form based on procedure

I created a form based on a procedure.
It is a entry form where the user is selecting or enters data then on submit I must display the report based on selected data.
I know I can simply create a report with all bind variable and do the job.
My question is what is the syntax to call the report from the procedure for the selected parameters values.
Thanks
Lawrence

If you want to display other HTML page after successful submission, you need to use
either go or call method.
I created a form on SCOTT.EMP and a report on SCOTT.EMP and the report accept a parameter for
the deptno. Here is my on successfull submission code:
declare
l_dept number;
l_url varchar2(2000);
begin
l_dept := p_session.get_value_as_number('DEFAULT', 'A_DEPTNO', 1);
l_url := 'scott.rpt_mask_1.show?p_arg_names=emp.deptno&p_arg_values='| |l_dept;
go(l_url);
end;

Call Oreacle report from Oracle form

Hi,
I need call a Oracle report from Oracle Form and found the the following procedure from this forum. I have 2 parameters 'start_date' and 'end_date' passing to called report. The following example just have onle parameter
'departmentno' passing. Is that mean I need to call add_parameter twice like the following?
add_parameter(plid, ''start_date' , TEXT_PARAMETER,:control.start_date);
add_parameter(plid, ''end_date' , TEXT_PARAMETER,:control.end_date);
In the following example:
add_parameter(plid, 'departmentno', TEXT_PARAMETER,to_char(:dept.deptno));
Thanks for clarification!!

How can we call a report from a form.

how can we call a report from an existing form.

Have you searched the Forms help system? It shows you how to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT

Calling a report from a form and outputting to the screen.

Hi all, I created a report from the Report node in Forms called Monthly_rep. It points to a .rdf file on the server that produces a monthly usage report. When run from Reports Builder both the web and paper version are fine.
I have a button on a form using the When-Mouse-Click trigger, here is the code:
declare
     report_id     Report_Object;
     report_job_id     VARCHAR2(100);
begin
     report_id:= find_report_object('monthly_rep');
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_COMM_MODE,ASYNCHRONOUS);
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE;
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_SERVER,'rskei015');
     report_job_id:=run_report_object(report_id);
     END;
When run, when the button is clicked, I get some disk activity and then nothing happens. If I change the "SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE" attribute to screen I get a FRM-41214 unable to run report message displayed.
I am not fussed if the report runs as a web style or paper style, I just want to get it to work ... for now LOL.
Do the "SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY" settings in the trigger override the settings in the report node ?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Kevin

You can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. See http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/10g/frm10gsrw10g.pdf
There you'll find a complete example of RUN_REPORT_OBJECT with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT.

Calling 10g reports from ADF_BC Application

Dear All;
Good day to you;
I have an ADF_BC application, and at the same time i have 10g reports compiled and placed on forms and reports server,
i want to call reports from my application as needed, i can put a hyperlink with the link to the report, and it is working fine,
but i want to know how to change the link to be dynamic, since the application is deployed on 1 application server, and the rerports on the other
in addition i need, to know how to send parameters
i am unable to change the properties of a hyperlink in the code, and i do not want to change it in scriplet
any idea, or tutorials will be most helpful
thank you
regards
halim

Hello John;
Thank you for your reply;
Yes i am using JSF, i am working on JDEV 10.1.3.30, i deployed my application to srvanweb2 a server we have, where the application server port is 7777,
and i have deployed my reports to srvanweb2 with port being 7778,
Report: http://srvanweb2:7778/reports/rwservlet?cmdkey=user_string&report=hrempr007.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=pdf
Application: http://srvanweb2:7777
my problem is, if i want to embed the link to the report as a common HTML hyperlink it would work, but if i want to set the value for this hyerplink dynamically to be able to add parameters on run time i would have to do it on the scriptlet level, and i can not do it in a bean, since i can not call the hyperlink set value, or even the get value, so my question what should i use to create a link which will change in a bean as you said and be able to call a differnet instance which is srvanweb2:7778, and send parameter
regards
Halim
