Changing file name produced by Reports

Does anyone know where you can change the default file name generated when you specify an output format of Excel for a Portal Report.
The default I am getting is schema.reportname.show which is not .xls as I expected.

Jenny,
The solution is to have a filename something.xls. i.e the url is http://myserver/pls/portal30/something.xls
you can create a procedure called xls in
the package generated by your report. The
procedure doesn't do much, it just does
a redirect to the report (w/p_format_out = EXCEL').
that should do the trick. The problem w/this
approach is that now you have a maintenance burden

Run report from forms - Cannot change file name in report node

I am running a report (9i) from forms (9i) and I changed the name of the report in the filename field in the report node (in object navigator).
I noticed that I get the error FRM-41214 on the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT line when I run the form, if I've changed the filename from what it originally was. e.g. It was originally rep44.rdf and I changed it to rep55.rdf, but I get this error unless I keep the rep44.rdf filename. Why? Is there somewhere else I should change this filename?

To view the reports queue open this URL:
http://<server>:<port>/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?server=<repserver>
Also, try running the report stand alone, not from Forms.
http://<server>:<port>/reports/rwservlet?server=<repserver>&report=rep55.rdf&userid=<un>/<pw>@<db>&destype=cache&desformat=PDF

ADE changes file names

The book I downloaded has each chapter as a seperate .pdf, each with it's own unique filename. ADE has retitled every chapter (.pdf) to the name of the book. Now that all the chapters have the same name, I can't transfer them to my Kobo. How do I change titles or get ADE to stop changing file names?
Thanks

Dimitri,
          As usual, thanks for the simple but informative explanation!

Change file name with oreilly servlet

I am using oreilly servlet package and I want to change the file name to the file I am uploading, is this possible ?
How ?
Thanks.
here I post the servlet code:
package com.reducativa.sitio.servlets;
* DemoParserUploadServlet.java
* Example servlet to handle file uploads using MultipartParser for
* decoding the incoming multipart/form-data stream
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;
import com.oreilly.servlet.multipart.*;
public class DemoParserUploadServlet extends HttpServlet {
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
response.setContentType("text/plain");
out.println("Demo Parser Upload Servlet");
File dir = new File("f:/");
if (! dir.isDirectory()) {
throw new ServletException("Supplied uploadDir " + "f:/ " +
" is invalid");
try {
MultipartParser mp = new MultipartParser(request, 10*1024*1024); // 10MB
Part part;
while ((part = mp.readNextPart()) != null) {
String name = part.getName();
if (part.isParam()) {
// it's a parameter part
ParamPart paramPart = (ParamPart) part;
String value = paramPart.getStringValue();
out.println("param; name=" + name + ", value=" + value);
else if (part.isFile()) {
// it's a file part
FilePart filePart = (FilePart) part;
String fileName = filePart.getFileName();
if (fileName != null) {
// the part actually contained a file
long size = filePart.writeTo(dir);
out.println("file; name=" + name + "; filename=" + fileName +
", filePath=" + filePart.getFilePath() +
", content type=" + filePart.getContentType() +
", size=" + size);
else {
// the field did not contain a file
out.println("file; name=" + name + "; EMPTY");
out.flush();
catch (IOException lEx) {
this.getServletContext().log("error reading or saving file");
}

Hi there,
I am facing the same problem that you have stated in your Feb 26, 2002 10:28 AM message regarding "change file name with oreilly servlet", I would like to change the file name to include a unique identifier upon upload, did you ever find a solution to your problem?
Thanks!

Is it possible to change file name policy in the JRE cache folder?

We are getting calls from our clients complaining of slowdowns in loading our Java applet. The reason is a virusscanner. If a virusscanner is in the middle, it can drastically slow down the download process, and therefore cause some high delay before the user can work on the our product as expected.
On this csutomer's side, it may take up to 10 min (the first time it is ran) instead of 1 min. JRE 1.6 is in use.
They dont want to exclude from antivirus scan all files from Sun\Java\Deployment\cache folder.
Question:
Is it possible to change file name policy in the JRE cache to make it less unique?
Thanks,

I suggest you solve the real problem - big files.
There are two scenarios
1. Initial download
2. Updates.
The first takes as long as it takes. No way around it.
The second means that you can't use one jar. Otherwise every single update requires downloading the entire application every time. Multiple jars means only the one that changed is downloaded.

Hello,
Did you try the builtin SRW.GET_REPORT_NAME built-in function ?
Example
function AfterPForm return boolean is
my_var varchar2(80);
BEGIN
SRW.GET_REPORT_NAME(my_var);
SRW.MESSAGE(0,'Report Filename = '||my_var);
RETURN (TRUE);
END;

Is it possible to change the name of a report thanks to the report painter

Hello,
Is it possible to change the name of a report thanks to the report painter GRR2?
Thanks!
SB

Hi,
First of all, it's possible to change a report description(title), if that what's you mean. If you want to change a code(name), then indeed you have to copy your report under a new name. To delete the report, first delete it from the report group (via GR52) and then you will be able to delete it.

How do I reconnect media after changing file name?

The original file name is 1001.WAV I changed it to Take1 . How do I relocate the files? I use Pluraleyes to sync all my files.
Cheers, Greg

Change it back. NEVER change file names in the Finder level if the media is in an FCP project. Change it BEFORE you import it into FCP...or change the name IN FCP. What you did was bad bad wrong wrong. Expecially since you already did things like sync it up with pluraleyes.
Change it back. Then change the name in FCP.

Changing Step Name in XML Report programmaticaly

I am trying to change the step name programmaticaly in TestStand to reflect in the XML report. The step is executed several times in a loop, and every time the loop runs I want the step to be named differently in the XML report. For example, the names will be something like this < Test1: Signal Name 1>, <Test2: Signal Name 2> ....etc. Any help on this will be appreciated .
Thanks,
Sam

Hi,
The best time to change the name is before you perform the test, then it will get inserted in the ResultList and hence into your report.
I have attached one way of doing this. You can also perform it after the Step you wish to change, in which case you would use the RunState.PreviousStep as a reference.
You could call the API method as part of your code.
Remeber, if you use a PropertyLoader to load Limits, and you have placed this inside the loop, then your Limits file for the Step Name must match the new step name not the old one that you see statically.
This is a TS3.5 example.
Hope this helps

Append date to exporting file name in SQL reporting service

When exporting a report to another format, say excel,PDF; the file name is always set to the report name. Our client has a requirement where whenever a user exports a report to pdf, the timestamp of when the data of the report was made should be appended in the filename. Is there a way to do this in Reporting Services as well as report builder?
example : Report name : Testreport
Exported file should be : Testreport-November-22-20076.pdf
please help me in this
Thanks

Hi,
I know it's been while since this question was posted. I am replying so that it'll be useful for other people when they come across this same situation.
If you have access to SQL Server Agent to create jobs then this idea will be helpful -
1. Connect to your Report Server from SSMS.
2. Note the ItemID for your report by executing this query
select *
from ReportServer..Catalog
where Path like '%NameofyourReport%'
3. Create a job in here with the name say "AppendDatetoxyzreport" and add a step in it with the code
UPDATE [Catalog]
SET [Path] = '/PathofyourrerportfromReportServer/ReportName_' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 112),
[Name] = '/ReportName_' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 112)
WHERE ItemID ='<ItemID>'
4. Create another job with a name like "RemoveDatexyzreport" and add a step in it with the code
UPDATE [Catalog]
SET [Path] = 'PathofyoureportinReportserver/ReportName',
[Name] = 'ReportName''
WHERE ItemID = '<ItemID>'
5. Now set your AppendDatetoxyzreport job schedule to execute first, then the Report's subscription and then the RemoveDatexyzreport.
By doing this the first job changes the name to include present date, then you get you report and the next job sets it back to its previous name.

RoboHelp changes file name to lowercase

I am using RH X5.0.2 (running on Win XP SP2) to import HTML files as topics. The primary layout is Microsoft HTML Help.
The original HTML file names are mixed case, but when the files are imported into RoboHelp, the file names are changed to all lowercase. For example, GL_Audit.htm is changed to gl_audit.htm. This is an issue because the topic title reflects the file name, and I need the topic title to retain the mixed case of the original files.
After I import the file, I have to manually change the topic title. However, RoboHelp does not like it when the title has an underscore. If I change gl_audit to GL_Audit and click OK, the change is not saved. But if I change gl_audit to GLAudit and click Apply, and then change it to GL_Audit, the change is saved.
I am using an existing project that was created by someone else a long time ago. Here are the steps that I am following:
1. Right-click the destination folder, and then click Import.
2. At the Import File screen, select the desired file, for example, GL_Audit.htm, and click Open. The file is imported as a topic.
3. Right-click the topic, and click Properties. Note that the Topic Tile is gl_audit, and the file name is gl_audit.htm.
4. In the Topic Title field, type GL_Audit, and click OK. Note that the Topic title is still gl_audit, and not GL_Audit.
5. Open the Topic Properties screen again.
6. In the Topic Title field, type GLAudit, and click Apply.
7. In the Topic Title field, enter an underscore between the L and the A so that the topic title is GL_Audit.
8. Click OK. Not that the topic title is saved as it was typed -- in mixed case.
If I can get RH to import the files without changing the original case, it will not matter that it takes two steps to change the topic title name.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Ashley

Hi again
Ashley, how are these HTML pages being created? I ask because I performed a small test. While the import process did indeed convert the file name to all lower case, it ignored the Topic Title. However, if I didn't have a Topic Title defined, it did create one that was all lower case.
I'm thinking that whatever tool that was used to create the topics you are importing didn't properly configure a proper Title Tag.
Cheers... Rick

Individual report path with defined file name from the report settings in Testsand 2012

Hi,
I have following task:
I want to test stand 2012 in each sequence to change the path of the report file. But the naming of the file is to be maintained as these settings can be made from TestStand into the report (DisplayName + _Report_ [<FileDate>] [<FileTime>] <unique>. <File Extension). I can not find now, however, the / callback parameter on which the components are assembled path and file in TestStand.
While I can read about the callback "GetReportFilePath" the path and file name, and with the expression: Parameters.ReportFilePath = "c: \ \ electro \ \ SHARE \ \ test protocols \ \ Test Logs \ \" change the path, but the file name will no longer be formed from the settings of TestStand.
I have the suspicion that I'm just not accreting at the right place. Can someone please give me a hint?
greeting Michael
