Can we Edit #BOX_BODY# Substitution String?

In apex 4.02 all templates #BOX_BODY# substitution string are used, I need to modified that string.
Outer #BOX_BODY# if I add anything like Font size, table format and anyting html function not accepted that template string. Can any one help for this how to change that format?
Thanks in Advance

Page Template Body (1. items below region content)
Page Template Body (2. items below region content)
Page Template Body (3. items above region content)
and thus <tt>#BOX_BODY#</tt> can't be "modified". Make changes in the relevant regions.

Presentational elements like <tt>font</tt> have been deprecated for many years and are now removed from the language. <tt>table</tt> elements should be used to structure tabular data, not for page layout. Use CSS to control presentation.

How to edit #BODY# substitution string?

Hi All,
I have an issue where I would like to set the border="1" in region where I have placed some select lists and buttons.
In the region template I can see:
<td class="t10RegionBody">#BODY#</td>
From the HTML source of the output page I can see that this is resolved to something begining with:
<td class="t10RegionBody"><table class="formlayout" summary="" >...
Now how can I add or change the table definition which seems to be a part of #BODY# substitution string?
How can I view the contents behind #BODY# string?
Regards,
Pawel.

That "HTML Table attributes" in the Region Template might be what you are looking for.

Can substitution strings be used for table name references?

Hi,
I was wondering if it's possible to use substituion strings for table names in SQL queries. This would allow for me to edit all references to a table at one location. For instance, if a table name or dblink changed, I could edit the substitution string or application item to ensure all the queries reference the new table.
For example:
select * from &table1.
table1 would be the substitution string for the actual table name
I know this is possible if I used a pl/sql function returning a query, but I would much rather use a substition string in a SQL query.
Thanks in advance.
Brian

i think not
because how create the fields of * in this case
in the other because all is dynamic, i think that you obtain only an error

Report template substitution strings? (APEX 2.2.0)

Hi all,
I am trying to customize a report template. I would like to know if there is a way to get the sort link that goes into the column headers. The next page and previous page links have the #LINK# substitution string. #COLUMN_HEADER# doesn't give me enough flexibility.
Would I have to use a named column template for this? (I don't have much idea what that is. I read about it on Scott Spendolini's blog entry on "Click in a Row".)
Cheers!

Hello,
>> I could using JavaScript rewrite the column header to be what I want after the page renders, but I'd rather it show up the way I want in the first place
Can you be more specific about what is it that you want? The report engine allows you to use custom headings. Can’t that feature help you achieve what you want?
>> Is there a list of the substitutions strings that are available to the column header?
The substitution strings you see on the templates populated by the APEX engine with snippets of code you can’t control. You can define your own substitution strings, in the application definition page (under shared components), set them with the code you need, and use them throughout the application, including in templates. The way to use them is a bit different – instead of the “#STRING# syntax, you need to use the “&STRING.” Syntax.
Regards,
Arie.

Using substitution string

I know you can refer to a substitution string by doing *&string.*
Can you refer to it by doing *:string* also
Howard

Howard
You can use the :item_name syntax as a bind variable in Sql and pl/sql within an APEX application.
APEX substitution strings are described here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e11838/concept.htm#insertedID6

Can substitution strings be changed at runtime?

I need to deploy my application such that it can run with different sets of tables, which are otherwise identical in design.
My client has multiple versions of the tables. For instance, they may have
CHICAGO.EMPLOYEES
CHICAGO.DEPARTMENTS
or
LONDON.EMPLOYEES
LONDON.DEPARTMENTS
or even
CHICAGO.EMPLOYEES_V01
CHIGAGO.DEPARTMENTS_V01
I can of course create a separate installation for each one of these, but this is neither elegant nor efficient.
Is there I way I can have a UNIQUE APEX application installation and then use substitution strings to switch between variants?
Ideally, I should modify the LOGIN screen adding two new fields, Location and Version and then designate the tables as
$LOCATION..EMPLOYEES_$VERSION.
$LOCATION..DEPARTMENTS_$VERSION
This means that I need to retrieve the two variables at login and then use them to help point to the right tables.
I know about substitution strings, but as far as I am aware they can only be changed statically during the development. Is it possible to change them at runtime? If yes, how?
I would greatly appreciate any response.
Mike

Hello Mike,
If your location is equivalent to the parsing schema you can use the APEX built-in substitution string *#OWNER#*.
You still need to resort to Peter’s advices where dynamic table names are concerned. Bear in mind that in this case, you won’t be able to use the APEX built-in DML processes, and you’ll need to write your own fetch/insert/update/delete processes, which might be a lot of work. Working in a multi-user environment adds the complexity factor of concurrency control (lost updates).

Arie.

Can't find the variable used in Apex using Substitution String #

Hi,
Someone put in a substitution string for a user defined variable. #variable#. I can't find it. Looked through the shared components. Any advice? Thanks.

Export your application and use a good text editor to search on that string and you will find it if it is there.

Hi Patrick,
The version info is: wwv_flow_api.set_version(p_version_yyyy_mm_dd=>'2009.01.12');
This should be wwv_flow_api.set_version(p_version_yyyy_mm_dd=>'2012.01.01');
... but this error is due to a manual modification of the export file.
We parameterise some values, so that the we can use the old-school DEFINE variables in our deploy process via SQL/plus.
One of the developers made a copy-paste error when doing that ...
So there is no bug !
Thanks for the tip !!
Kind regards,

Variable or Substitution String in Interactive Report Filter

Background: I have an application that has a number of customized Interactive Reports where the Filter on the reports is set to a custom company name. When I install the application, I do not want to go through the reports and change the filter for the new company's name. The filters I need to change are all set by LOVs.
Question: Is there a way that I can do one of the following:
- associate a Filter with a Variable or Substitution String such that I can set that variable or string on login and then the user always sees the correct Filter displayed in the Interactive Report?
- or is there a code method to update a sql apex table behind the scenes to reset the Filter to the new value. So that I could run that after installation as part of a customization / set-up time?
System Info: 4.1.0.00.32
Thanks,
Stephen
I used the IR_FILTER function, and while it allowed for a new filter to be set. It did not save the filter after logout or for other users accessing the Primary report. I could not find a SAVE Interactive Report function. So, my question still stands on looking for a method to set and save Filters programatically.
Edited by: slsmith on Apr 19, 2012 8:07 PM

Hi,
I don't have access to an Apex 3 environment to check this, but I think that the Apex 4 Interactive Reports save the filters slightly differently and an attempt to mimic that functionality using IR conditions would fail.
The only alternative I can think of right now is to have an additional column that returns 0 or 1 - eg:
SELECT FIELD1,
FIELD2,
FIELD3,
CASE WHEN (FIELD1 IS NULL OR FIELD2 IS NULL OR FIELD3 IS NULL) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END INCLUDE_NULLS
FROM YOURTABLEand then apply a filter to INCLUDE_NULLS = 1

Substitution strings not working in URLs for web service references (bug?)

We have an environment where the url for our BPEL server is read from a variable. I've created an application item and a corresponding application-level computation. I'm using the ampersand-followed-by-dot (&BPEL_SERVER.) syntax as well as the hashmark syntax (#BPEL_SERVER#) and am unable to get this working.
Is there a way for me to debug web service reference calls other than whether a call was successful? Is this a bug?
edit:
Here is the error message I get when I try to use a substitution:
ORA-20001: The webservice was unreachable because either the URL you supplied was invalid, your environment requires a valid proxy server address for HTTP requests, or a wallet needs to be configured for HTTPS requests.

No problem - let me try to lay this out a little differently, perhaps I'm just missing something.
problem:
* we have separate development, test, and production servers for our database and bpel servers.
* The hostnames for these servers are stored in a table of key/value pairs
* This means that (by policy) the hostnames in URLs calling BPEL web services should be the value corresponding to BPEL_SERVER so that the appropriate bpel server is used to call the web service
attempted solution:
1) I created an application item named BPEL_SERVER
2) I have a before-header computation that sets BPEL_SERVER to 'http://bpeldev' using a static value assignment
3) I have a web service reference whose URL is either &BPEL_SERVER./orabpel/default/callNotification/1.0 or #BPEL_SERVER#/orabpel/default/callNotification/1.0
4) The web service reference is called in an after-submit process.
5) An invalid URL exception is thrown for this process.when submitting on the page containing this process
observations:
* for (3) - I can set the URL to http://bpeldev/orabpel/default/callNotification/1.0 and everything occurs successfully
* for (3) - If I use http://bpeldev/&BPEL_SERVER. then when I execute (4), I see a request for the exact string http://bpeldev/&BPEL_SERVER. in bpeldev's access logs
* for (3) - If I use http://bpeldev/#BPEL_SERVER# then when I execute (4), I see a request for the exact string http://bpeldev/#BPEL_SERVER# in bpeldev's access logs
* for (2) I've also used a function call RETURN get_const_value('BPEL_SERVER'); - same results for (5)
* the item value has ben verified before (5)
* for (1) and (2) I've tried defining substitution strings in the application definition instead - same results for (5)

Substitution string not working in interactive report

Hi all,
I am using a substitution string in the no data found message of the interactive report. But instead of the actual message, &my_message. is displayed when there is no data found. I noticed that this problem is also occuring when a substitution string is used in the column headers of the interactive report. In the non-interactive report it is working as it should. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?
Hope anybody can help me. Also when you have a workaround for my problem.
Many thanks in advance!

Modifying a Application Substitution String in Run-time

Hello all,
I have a substitution string defined in an application (under application definition) that needs to be different based on whether the application is on a development server or a test server. Is there a way that I can alter the value of that subsitution string on my test run-time instance after I've brought the application in from development? Perhaps an API call? APEX_INSTANCE_ADMIN doesn't appear to have anything for this.
Or do I have to either do a test in code and set an application item when the application starts up, or pull it from a database table or constant?
Thanks!
John

Shane,
SubVersion works with files, so everything you do has to be a file, including all of your PL/SQL procs / functions / packages. If you have "cowboy coders" editing packages in the database with SQL Developer or TOAD, that's the first thing that needs to change. I regularly export my APEX apps and check them in. I also make a DDL-only backup of any schemas I'm working on at major mile-stones or before upgrades.
There's a server and client component. The sever houses the repository and everyone checks projects out from and commits projects to the server. On the client-side, the TortoiseSVN client is by far the most popular Windows client. It perfectly integrates with Windows so you can right-click a file and lock, update, commit it.
To work on a project, you:
- check it out from the repository. you typically only do this once as you keep a working copy on your client pc.
- get a lock on a file you want to edit. This is optional, but it's my preferred method. Now you are the only one that can commit the file back to the repository.
- make your changes to the file, once you are happy, simply right-click and select commit. you can then enter comments on the file.
- now, anyone else who wants to edit that file will see your changes when they request a lock or issue the "update" command.
You can review every version of the file, diff versions, "Tag" a version of your code, and the list goes on.
After a few hours you'll be comfortable with the client process. I think the server component of it deters most people as you have a number of choices to make and it can be slightly complicated to install. For this reason, I STRONGLY recommend trying one of the hosting providers as then all you have to worry about is the client-side. Additionally, your code is now backed-up off-site.
I don't have any personal experience with these services, but here are a few reasonably priced ones. The first one has a free option which is where I would start with a test project just to get a feel for it.:
- https://www.projectlocker.com
- http://svnrepository.com/
For what it's worth, the APEX team uses SubVersion, as do many dev teams inside Oracle (not the DB dev team though). Also, the new https://samplecode.oracle.com uses Subversion as part of an offering from CollabNet. My 1st project hosted there is called logger . You can brows the logger subversion repository here: https://logger.samplecode.oracle.com/source/browse/logger/

Can I edit the rpt file & change the datasource before loading the report?

We are an ISV and our application has a lot of reports. Our reports use a SQL Server database as the data source and each SQL Server at our customer sites has a different name.
In our testing we have determined that ReportDocument.Load tries to connect to the SQL Server that is saved in the RPT. If it can't fine the SQL Server saved in the RPT the load take about 60 seconds while it is waiting for the SQL Server Connection to time out.
We are using the Visual Studio 2008 version of Crystal Reports. This did not seem to be a problem with VB6/CR8.5.
We would like to edit the RPT and change the data source to the appropriate SQL Server before we call ReportDocument.Load.
Is it possible to edit the rpt file and change the data source before loading the report?
Or is there some way to tell Crystal not to try connecting to the DB
during the report.load?
In our case we will NEVER use the data source that is saved in the RPT, we will always change the data source using ApplyLogOnInfo.
Thanks

HI Todd,
You Can Not edit the report document before ReportDocument.Load() because if you dont load the report then you dont have anything to Edit
But as far as changing the datasource is concerned you can change that at runtime.
For changing the datasource following code will help you if both databases have a same schema :
Code for changing the database
ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
crConnectionInfo.ServerName = "SERVER";
crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "DATABASE";
crConnectionInfo.UserID = "USERID";
crConnectionInfo.Password = "PASSWORD";
// Loop through the ReportObjects in a report and find all the subreports
foreach(ReportObject crReportObject in crReportDocument.ReportDefinition.ReportObjects)
     // Check the kind of the ReportObject, if it is a subreport
     // proceed. If not skip.
     if(crReportObject.Kind == ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject)
          // Get the SubReport in the form of a ReportDocument
          string sSubreportName = ((SubreportObject)crReportObject).SubreportName;
          ReportDocument crSubReportDocument = crReportDocument.OpenSubreport(sSubreportName);
          // Use a loop to go through all the tables in the main report
          foreach(Table crTable in crSubReportDocument.Database.Tables)
// Get the TableLogOnInfo from the Table and then set the new
// ConnectionInfo values.
TableLogOnInfo crLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo;
crLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo;
// Apply the TableLogOnInfo
crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crLogOnInfo);
// Set the location of the database. This value will vary from database to
// database.
crTable.Location = "DATABASE.OWNER.TABLENAME" or crTable.Locations;
The sample for doing this is available on support site.
Thanks,
Prasad

I have an Airport Extreme Base Station and have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now airport utility won't work with my base station so I bought a Time Capsule. For the life of me I can't make the substitution work and only see a blinking amber light.

The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
1) I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access. But do I have to change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
2) Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
N.Korean hackers.
[Edit] Whoops-- one more question: I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it. What do I need to do?
You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
Look at Q3 here.

Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

Footer navigation using pl/sql - substitution strings

Hi
I want to make a footer navigation (a BLAF like footer with the same captions and links that appear in the Tabs and the Navigation Bar) using a PL/SQL region. The code I want to use should work for any HTML DB application.
The procedure could be defined like this:
PROCEDURE prb_footer_navigation( p_application_id VARCHAR2
, p_page_id VARCHAR2
, p_session_id VARCHAR2);
p_application_id will be used to get the caption and links of the specific application and p_page_id will be used to know which tab is selected.
I'm using this query in the procedure:
SELECT t.tab_text caption
, t.tab_target link
, t.tab_sequence num
FROM flows_010600.wwv_flow_toplevel_tabs t
WHERE t.flow_id = p_application_id
ORDER BY t.tab_sequence
(the user has been granted select from flows_010600.wwv_flow_toplevel_tabs)
The problem is:
tab_target has substitution strings like '&XXX.' or '&PX_XXX.', so how can I get the real link with resolved substitution strings using pl/sql?
Something like function_resolve_string(p_string, p_session_id) would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance!

A.U.,
Have you considered looking at how the navigation bar gets onto your page by examining the page template? You'll find something like this in the body section:
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" summary="">
    <tr>
      <td valign="top" class="t1Logo">#LOGO#</td>
      <td align="right" valign="top">#NAVIGATION_BAR#</td>
    </tr>
</table>Just copy and paste that onto the end of the body section, or into the footer section of the template, although the footer might not support all the same substitution patterns.
If that's the kind of result you have in mind, do the same thing for the (html) tables that contain #PARENT_TAB_CELLS# and #TAB_CELLS#. I don't guarantee this will work, but it's worth experimenting with.
