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.
If you have access to Metalink, have a look at Note:207396.1.

Hi,
I am a newbie in taskflow development world.
Having gone through the above answer, I am not sure on how it fits in my problem domain. I created a taskflow with few iinput parameter to it. Actually it's a polling application that displays a poll on the basis of poll id provided by user through taskflow input parameter. A new requirement came up to show a list of polls and user may click on a poll from the list and that poll should get displayed.
I have done the showing list of poll part, but when user clicks on a particular poll, even though I am setting the poll ID of the selected poll to the appropriate parameter, it's not being taken. While doing some R&D on this, I found there are two attributes called Refresh and RefreshCondition for taskflow refreshing. Initially the value of Refresh was set to 'always' which I modified to 'ifNeeded' and 'deferred', one at a time and it did not work. I have also tried binding a boolean variable to 'RefreshCondition' attribute, but while debugging, I have found, that the boolean variable is read only once while the taskflow is getting initiated, no matter what the value of 'Refresh' is.
I did not get much time to explore the meaning and applicability of 'Refresh' and 'RefreshCondition' attributes, but have a feeling that these are the ones that I have to tweak a little to get my work done. Can someone please help me on this?
Thank you,

Call oracle reports from MENU in oracle ebs

is it possible in oracle ERP EBS R12
how to call oracle reports from menu [any screen] in oracle ebs erp r12??
please help

you may do a few things from menus and by adding buttons, but this is not really standard.
You may add button on the form or web page that after a certain action or event. You'll have to do personalization / extension and everything is present in oracle for normal report submission.
Why this is not done thru normal submission ?

Calling SQL*Loader from Forms

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has called SQL*Loader from Forms?
What I am wanting to do is use Oracle Forms as the interface where you can specify a file that you can import into the database and it will use a set control file. Push the import button and SQL*Loader does the rest.
Is using Java code to call SQL*Loader from Forms a viable option, or is there an easier way to achieve the desired outcome.
Any ideas or guidance will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott.

Scott,
In forms, there's a HOST built-in command which is supposed to execute any o/s commands.
What you have to do is :
1. Bult up the string exacltly in the fashion which you will run in o/s
2. Call the HOST Built-in and pass in the string
Here's a example :
Declare
lOsCmd Varchar2(1000) := Null;
Begin
lOsCmd := 'sqlldr user-id=userid/passwd@connectStr '
|| ' control=c:\temp\abc.ctl log=c:\temp\abc.log '
|| ' bad = c:\temp\abc.log';
Host (lOsCmd, No_Screen);
End;

Graphics from Forms or Reports

When I am running graphics from forms or reports either using the chart wizard or by run_product built-in, I am getting error message OG-01603: UNABLE TO CREATE PL/SQL DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT CONTEXT
I am using Developer 6i.
Please help me out.
Thanks
Zulqarnain

I have tested on my pc it is perfectly working.
Please check before installations..
Is there any other oracle product is running in the same machine?
1. Are you installing Dev 6i in a machine where Oracle database(8.0 or 8i) is installed?
2.First shutdown the database. Stop the oracle services running.
3. Then start installing Dev 6i in a different oracle home.

CALLING A REPORT FROM FORMS (PROBLEM)

MY PROBLEM IS THE NEXT:
I CREATED A MASTER-DETAIL REPORT CALLING 'ASUNTOS'WITH THE NEXT QUERY:
SELECT ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_P,ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_M,ABOGADOS.NOMBRES,
ASUNTOS.EXP_INT,ASUNTOS.MATERIA,ASUNTOS.GERENCIA,
ASUNTOS.EMPRESA,ASUNTOS.RECLAMA,ASUNTOS.PESOS,
ASUNTOS.DOLARES
FROM ABOGADOS,ASUNTOS
WHERE ABOGADOS.FICHA = ASUNTOS.F_ABOG
AND ASUNTOS.F_ABOG = :ABOGADO ;
-- ABOGADO = PARAMETER.
THIS REPORT WORKS FINE THE PROBLEM IS WHEN I TRY CALL THIS REPORT FROM FORM I'VE USE A BUTTON(WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED) WITH THE NEXT CODE:
DECLARE
LISTA PARAMLIST := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
BEGIN
IF ID_NULL(LISTA) THEN
LISTA := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'PRINTER');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER,'LPT2');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'ABOGADO',TEXT_PARAMETER,TO_CHAR(:ASUNTOS.F_ABOG));
-- ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'YES');
END IF;
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'ASUNTOS',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,LISTA,NULL);
END;
BUT THE REPORT NOTHING DISPLAY.
THERE ARE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CODE IN THE BUTTON

Roberto,
Does your report work when it is not called from Forms?
try the following:
[TOOLS_HOME]\BIN\RWRUN60 module=ASUNTOS destype=screen userid=<username>/<password>@<tns> ABOGADO=<some_valid_code>
where TOOLS_HOME is the directory where Reports is installed.
I can see nothing wrong with your code.
Maybe some error in the query?
Also, I would check for the existence of multiple ASUNTOS report definitions. Maybe Forms is calling an older one.
Hope this helps,

Calling a report from forms with a paramter form

Hello,
How do you call a report from forms and get it to display the parameter form. Where you can then call the report using this parameter form. I have been using paramform=yes. but it simply runs the form.
I saw on a a thread ages ago that this was a sample of this available for download. Is this true?
thanks

Here is my code sorry about posting twice. Please note that the parameter list has been created as described.
report_id := find_report_object('MENU_REPORT_NODE');
Tool_Env.Getvar('ReportsServer', reports_server);
Tool_Env.Getvar('ReportsFolder', reports_folder);
dest_file := reports_folder || :global.username || '\' || rep_name || '.pdf';
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_FILENAME, rep_name);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_SERVER, reports_server);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_COMM_MODE, SYNCHRONOUS); -- wait for the report to finish
-- SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_DESNAME, dest_file);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_DESTYPE, cache);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_DESFORMAT, 'PDF');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_OTHER, 'paramform=yes' || ' ' || 'mode=bitmap');
report_job := run_report_object(report_id);

Connect to Oracle 8i from Forms 6

I have installed Personal Oracle 8i and developper 6 in a NT. I got the error when tried to connect to the Oracle 8i from Form Builder. "could not resolve service name".
I did enter the database name.
Any ideas?

This is a tnsnames problem...check the entry in tnsnames.ora and make sure
its
point to the right DB...there will be a tnsnames.ora under Network and also
a
tnsnames in the developer directory ..FORMS will use the tnsnames under
developer..
Supply the connect string with and without the domain to see if
that works
You can find the domain name in sqlnet.ora file.

Regarding tutorial of how to call Oracle Reports from APEX

Hi,
I'm trying to call Oracle Reports from APEX using this tutorial.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
But in the step of 'Create the Oracle HTML DB Application', 'OE' doesn't appear in the LOV of Existing Schema, even though the sample schema exists in the schema and they are unlocked. And when I type 'OE' directly without using LOV, and press Next, the message 'Schema is reserved or restricted' appears.
How can I create the workspace based on OE schema?

Hello Shohei,
I know your following the tutorial, but if you want to call oracle reports from apex it is quite easy though if your working with oracle reports 9i or higher. Just create an html region and put in the source the html code for referencing an url like to_report
Or reference the same url from a button placed on the HTML region
(you can create a package that would create the whole URL and returns it as a string, easier for scalability)
Hope this can help you to (tutorial is good but try and learn from scratch is also good ;-) )

How to call Oracle Reports from APEX

Dear All,
I am new to APEX. My first job assignment is "calling oracle reports from apex".
Can any one help me on this? Is there any online examples / tutorials from OTN site?
TIA.

Hi Joe,
the how-to is still valid for APEX 3.0. Calling an Oracle Report from APEX is still the same, it's basically the URL you build for the report call and Oracle Reports hasn't changed that format.

Calling an EXE from Forms 4.5

How do i call a windows Exe from forms. Whats the exact syntax to do that? Code sample would help.
Thanks!

Client/server mode calling an EXE from Forms 4.5
The following is a Foreign Function Interface that I employed to launch an outside program in its own asynchronous window. It was a great alternative to the HOST command.
The disadvantage to the HOST command was that the launched program would have to be closed before you could return to the form. With this method the the launched program
could be minimized etc. and you could switch back and forth between forms and it.
