  • 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,

  • Not able to edit the report created on different data source.....

    I have a query regarding Report in OBIEE - reports developed from BI Publisher are specific to data source on which they have been created ??
    i have a sample report that was created on different data source, i have the corresponding RPD also. I changed the data source according to my DB and when i try to update/edit the report,
    on Analytics for adding a new column, it is generating a seperate new Query from QueryBuilder for that additional cloumn rather than adding up the new query with the previous one(existing report query). Is it because of mismatch of data source on which report had been created and on which it is being update ?? if it is the case, where do i need to make changes related to JDBC connection or others ??
    when i try to create a new sample data set and try to update it, it adds up the extra edited things to original query and works perfectly fine. can ny 1 help me for the same ??

  • How can I run the report for different input values at the same time?

    Reports version: Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1
    Oracle version: Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.0.0
    I want to run the same report for different input parameter values and spool each o/p to different file and ftp to a server. For this, as a first step, I am spooling different input values in to a file, reading those values through a loop and calling the report for that input values. Each report run/execution is taking 15 minutes. Total report execution is taking approximately 4 hours (assuming 16 different input values) to complete. So I have to wait 4 hours to see ALL outputs.
    I would like to run the report parallel for ALL the input values and I should be able to see the ALL outputs with in 15 or 16 minutes.
    In my shell script, I added & symbol at the end of the report call to start/run the job in the background. Due to this the control passed to the next step after the report call. At this place I have an ftp command to send the output file to a different server and it is giving error some thing like “o/p file is not available/created yet". This is due to the fact that report writer is NOT yet completely started/initiated or it is NOT completed the spooling.
    How can I run the report at the same time for all the input values and save the time?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kishore.

    Increase the number of server engines running right now it seems there is only one engine running ,increase it to 4 or 6
    and then atleast 4 or 6 reports will run simultaneously.
    For FTPing the output add to your sript to check whether it is locked and if not then only try to ftp .
    Also for more better functionality read the document (chapter 15 ) for 10g reports for its new fuinctionality.

  • Can not see the report in report manager/admin tab

    Hi,
    in 8.49 on Win 2003 some users can not see the reports in report manager/admin tab. PS user can see them.
    Should we add some grants in user profile ? Which ? Any query to compare that user profile with PS ?
    Thank you.

    On the administration page, you will be able to see "View Reports For" header on the top.
    Under that header you will see the following fields:
    User ID/Type/Last/Status/Folder /Instance
    Above values will be used by PeopleSoft to filter and display the list of reports
    If the user has selected Status as Processing and saved the page, PeopleSoft will only show reports which are in Processing status.
    If user runs a report and it has been posted, it will not show up in report manager coz the filter value is set to Processing.
    Hope this helps. I dont think Permissions has anything to do with this since user is able to view the page.

  • Can I edit the size of my photo when setting up an email signature?

    Can I edit the size of my photo when setting up an email signature?

    Not sure what you mean by "photo screen?" Do you mean your Photo Stream?
    In the Photos app there are several ways to view the photos. Tap on Albums. Your Photo Stream is one Album but there may be others including the Camera Roll, albums made on the iPad with photos from the Camera Roll, and albums of photos copied to your iPhone by syncing with your computer.
    To remove albums from the Camera Roll, tap on the Camera Roll album to see the small thumbnails of the photos there. Tap on Select, tap on the photos to delete, then tap on the trashcan. The photos will then be moved to another album called Recently Deleted. They remain there for 30 days to allow you time to reconsider whether you really want to delete them or not. After 30 days they will automatically be deleted from your iPhone. But if you are sure you want the photos deleted from your iPhone delete them again from the Recently Deleted album.
    Albums created on the iPad with photos from the Camera Roll can be deleted in the same way.
    To delete albums copied to your iPhone by syncing with your computer running iTunes are deleted by doing another sync. But before you click on Sync deselect the albums in iTunes. Then when you click on Apply or Sync the albums will be removed from your iPhone but they will remain on your computer.

  • How can I put the report generated by a program into a File?

    Hi all,
       How can I put the report generated by a program into a File?It can be in TXT format or excel format which ever is possible.
    I need to export this file to memory,How can I do that??
    Regards,
    Shashank.

    Hello Shashank,
    Please ignore my previous answer... Ofcourse it works...
    There are several ways to do this...
    two of them are
    1. List -> Save -> File and press enter..
        it will ask for the format, then path where to save it. Just give the path.
    2. Using function module 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'.
    I'm giving the example bellow which explains the usage of both GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD.
    To do this... you need to have folder with name 'TEST' and a .txt file in it with name 'test'. And contents of it are :
    TEST1             ,BOT 
    TEST2             ,BOT 
    TEST3             ,BUT 
    with spaces.
    REPORT zssr_bdc .
    DATA: BEGIN OF g_t_itab OCCURS 0,
            matnr LIKE mara-matnr,
            maktx LIKE makt-maktx,
          END OF g_t_itab.
    DATA: g_t_bdcdata TYPE TABLE OF bdcdata.
    DATA: path TYPE string,
          path1 type string.
    path = 'C:\Documents and Settings\ssr3kor\Desktop\TEST\test.txt'.
    path1 = 'C:\Documents and Settings\ssr3kor\Desktop\TEST\test1.txt'.
    *contents of test.txt    *
    *TEST1             ,BOT  *
    *TEST2             ,BOT  *
    *TEST3             ,BUT  *
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
      EXPORTING
        filename = path
      TABLES
        data_tab                      = g_t_itab.
    LOOP AT g_t_itab.
      WRITE:/1(18) g_t_itab-matnr, 20(40) g_t_itab-maktx.
    ENDLOOP.
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
      EXPORTING
       filename = path1
       filetype                      = 'ASC'
      TABLES
        data_tab                      = g_t_itab.
    Now you will get one .txt file with name 'TEST1.TXT' in the TEST folder.

  • Can I redistribute the Adobe AIR Runtime as part of a native installer or with my product's installer?

    Hi to All,
    Can I redistribute the Adobe AIR Runtime as part of a my
    product’s installer? So that if users don't have Adobe Air
    runtime installed then the Adobe Air runtime should be installed
    first and then simultaneously my adobe air application should be
    installed on single click, removing the difficulty of downloading
    each installer seperately.
    So is there any way so that I can package both Adobe Air
    runtime and my application into a single installer file.
    Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!.
    Thanks in Advance...

    You need to apply for it. See the details on how to do this

    Hello all.
    Bi Publisher is great, but has a very high price tag. It's even more expensive than Forms & Reports Services. We are considering APEX to replace Forms & Reports on the web, but the reporting limitations are still a problem.
    I wonder if there is another option.

  • How Can we improve the report performance..?

    Hi exports,
    I am learning the Business Objects XIR2, Please let me know How Can we improve the report performance..?
    Please give the answer in detailed way.

    First find out why your report is performing slowly. Then fix it.
    That sounds silly, but there's really no single-path process for improving report performance. You might find issues with the report. With the network. With the universe. With the database. With the database design. With the query definition. With report variables. With the ETL. Once you figure out where the problem is, then you start fixing it. Fixing one problem may very well reveal another. I spent two years working on a project where we touched every single aspect of reporting (from data collection through ETL and all the way to report delivery) at some point or another.
    I feel like your question is a bit broad (meaning too generic) to address as you have phrased it. Even some of the suggestions already given...
    Array fetch size - this determines the number of rows fetched at a single pass. You really don't need to modify this unless your network is giving issues. I have seen folks suggest setting this to one (which results in a lot of network requests) or 500 (which results in fewer requests but they're much MUCH larger). Does either improve performance? They might, or they might make it worse. Without understanding how your network traffic is managed it's hard to say.
    Shortcut joins? Sure, they can help, as long as they are appropriate. [Many times they are not.|http://www.dagira.com/2010/05/27/everything-about-shortcut-joins/]
    And I could go on and on. The bottom line is that performance tuning doesn't typically fall into a "cookie cutter" approach. It would be better to have a specific question.

    1.)we need generate the report of tablespace used,free, archive...There are DBA_* views that expose the necessary information. They are documented in the Reference Manual.
    2.)How can we generate the Backup status report alsoThere are rman commands that give that. They are documented in the Backup and Recovery User's Guide.
    =================================================
    Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
    Go to [url tahiti.oracle.com]tahiti.oracle.com.
    Locate the link for your Oracle product and version, and click on it.
    You are now at the entire documentation set for your selected Oracle product and version.
    <b><i><u>BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION</u></i></b>
    Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab (for 10.x) or the "Master Book List" link (for 11.x) you will find the complete documentation library.
    Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
    Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> of information is available there.
    Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
    Do the same with the Utilities manual.
    You don't have to read the above in depth. They are <b><i><u>reference</b></i></u> manuals. Just get familiar with <b><i><u>what</b></i></u> is there to <b><i><u>be</b></i></u> referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
    Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
    - Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
    - Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
    - Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
    - When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.

  • How can I edit the file name of the home page?

    How can I edit the file name of the home page?
    Gr Ammani

    I have a similar issue with regards to the filename...
    When I navigate to my website, it doesnt work unless I actually type the filename at the end of it. Example: type in "www.whitelion.com" (this is my real domain name) and it doesnt work. When I type in "www.whitelion.com/index.html" then it works.
    This is obviously inconvenient because my clients will never know to add the filename to the end of the site.
    Is there any setting or way to get the page to appear by just typing the original domain name without adding the extension?
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    If you don't have an entry like "SQL Server Reporting Services (InstanceName)" in Windows Service Manager (Services.msc) then because SSRS service not installed on that machine. Install it, then you will see such an entry.
    Olaf Helper
    This is not an SQL issue it's a SC Service Manager issue. Reporting Services is installed and running on the SQL side. The problem is that as I am now aware I cannot get the Data Warehouse Server to register in the Service Manager consoles to connect that
    with the canned reports and turn on Reporting Workspace. Any thoughts?
