Coldfusion report builder download has no help included

I just downloaded both the CF Report builder versions for 8 and 9 and there is no English language help file included.
Does anyone know where or how I can download this?
Clicking on help just gives you a warning saying 'MS Html Help is not installed on this PC.'

I found MS html help version 1.4. When attempting to install it, the installer indicated that I already had the newest version installed. Yet, CFRB continues to indicate that "MS Html Help is not installed on this PC". I am running on Win 7 64 bit platform. Any support would be greatly appreciated.
Hmm, that is strange.
If there is no shortcut to the help file in the Windows menu, use the Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder where CFRB is installed, (default is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\ColdFusion Report Builder") and double click on the "CFReportBuilder.chm" file.
If it loads successfully, then create a shortcut to it in a location that is convenient for you.

  • Receiving Error Message in Coldfusion Report Builder

    I have installed Coldfusion Report Builder. I connect to my
    RDS server and attempt to run the Query Builder and get the
    following error:
    Object: TDataPanel, gbFields
    Exception:'2) when evaluating instruction Ret($0' is not a
    valid integer value
    See error log for stack trace
    Has anyone seen this before? Does anyone have any idea what
    the problem is?
    Thanks

    Whatever version came with MX7. When I run it and go to help
    and about, it just shows the version info for cold fusion server.
    Not the report builder. I know it is the latest version however as
    I also downloaded and installed the latest version from
    online.

  • Can Coldfusion Report Builder Lock .MDB Files?

    I have been seeing an issue where an .mdb file will be locked into a read only mode state. There is no .ldb lock file on the object, but when I open the DB up a banner pops up at the top stating it is in read only mode. While it is in this mode it cannot be queried by CF pages and nothing on the site works.
    If I rename the same file to soemthing else it works find. If I rename it back to its original name it says it is locked and will not respond. I have been trying to figure out what has a hold o f the .mdb file when this is happening.
    Yesterday afternoon I was working in the coldfusion report builder and was connected to the datasource .mdb through the rds server. I am now wondering if it is report builder that is locking the DB.
    Has this happened to anyone else? Has anyone ever seen issues like this?

    I have never found a solution. It is a problem specific to report builder and PDFs. If you output to flashpaper it will work fine. If you output in coldfusion directly to pdf, it is fine as well with Cyrillic. I have just given up and used flashpaper for a little while longer though would prefer going to pdf for longevity and ease for the users of saving the documents.
    May not hurt to post a bug report specifically for this one. I didn't know this tool existed. It does seem like a bug because the fonts that I have tried to use have Cyrillic available, it just can't deal with them.

  • How Do I Print my reports Horizontally using Coldfusion Report Builder

    Hi-
    I want to print my reports Horizontally rather vertically using Coldfusion Report Builder. I am using a very simple query
    SELECT
          Zones.Zone_id,
          Zones.Zone_name,
         Count(employees.cnic) as Employees
    FROM Zones, Employees
    WHERE Zones.zone_id=Employees.zone_id

  • ColdFusion Report Builder 9 Using MySQL query's

    Hey Everyone
    I have been pulling my hair out for several days with this, I have all of the Adobe ColdFusion 9 dev books, and Google returns a cluster of information that doesnt seem to work. I was hoping someone could help me out here.
    So what I did was open query builder in Adobe ColdFusion 9 Report Builder, I clicked the icon at the top that says report query and placed the following mySQL information, which works fine.
    MySQL
    select name.soc_sec, name.last_name, name.first_name, nmcrs.course,nmcrs.crs_txt AS Course_Title ,practicl.day_cod,CAST(practicl.start_hr AS VARCHAR(2)) + ':' + CAST(practicl.start_min AS VARCHAR(2)) AS Start_Time,
      CAST(practicl.end_hr AS VARCHAR(2)) + ':' + CAST(practicl.end_min AS VARCHAR(2)) AS End_Time, nmcrs.section, nmcrs.sch_yr, nmcrs.sm_desc, nmattend.attend_txt,address.phone,address.cell_phone,
      address.e_mail
    From name
      --INNER JOIN  nmprg ON name.soc_sec = nmprg.soc_sec  
            INNER JOIN  nmcrs ON name.soc_sec = nmcrs.soc_sec
            Left Join crssect ON name.soc_sec = crssect.crs_id
      Inner Join practicl On practicl.sid = nmcrs.sid
            inner join nmattend on name.soc_sec = nmattend.soc_sec
            Inner join  address On name.soc_sec = address.soc_sec
    WHERE (name.camp_cod = 'California') AND (nmcrs.sch_yr = '201213')and (nmcrs.semester = '1') and (nmattend.attend_txt = 'SP') and
      (nmcrs.section not like'w%')
    group by name.soc_sec, name.last_name, name.first_name,nmcrs.course,nmcrs.crs_txt,practicl.day_cod,practicl.start_hr,
       practicl.start_min, practicl.end_hr,practicl.end_min,nmcrs.section, nmcrs.sch_yr,nmcrs.sm_desc, nmcrs.grade,
       nmattend.attend_txt, address.phone,address.cell_phone,address.e_mail
    ORDER BY nmcrs.section, name.soc_sec
    Now I place my fields where I want them in the desgner, I double click the field to open the expression builder and all I have to type is something like query.Start_Time
    When I run the report it lists all of the start times that match my criteria.
    good
    So my trouble is, I would like to use an if statement to make something happen based on the start time and cant get it to work. I have tried using <cfscript> <cfif> <cfquery> if, IIF, nothing works, mainly because once I use one of those tags it no longer recognizes the query.Start_Time.
    I was wondering if someone could give me an example on how to do this like
    <cfif (query.Start_Time) IS '12:0'>
    query.Start_Time = '12.00'
    </cfif>
    or
    <cfscript>
    if(query.Start_Time == '12:0')
         query.Start_Time = '12:00';
    </cfscript>
    I mean I know thats wrong and Its probably not that simple but all I need is a simple example to work off of and one would be greatly appreciated. Or even an example in the mySQL info I provided would work too. Please Help
    Thanks
    Shawn

    Shawn, forgive me not focusing on the direct question, but I want to clarify first that this is not the right forum for that question, about the CF Report Builder. This forum is for CF Builder, the relatively new CF IDE (integrated development environment) for CF, based on Eclipse.
    Your question about the CF Report Builder should be directed to its own forum, the CF Reporting forum:
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/coldfusion/coldfusion_reporting
    I do understand the easy confusion (the name CF Builder is awfully close to the CF Report Builder). Also, the forum name “CF Reporting” may not have jumped out as a place for RB questions. (For any readers who may be interested, the list of all CF-related forums is at http://forums.adobe.com/community/coldfusion)
    That forum is not as busy, no, but then the Report Builder is quite a bit older, having come out with CF 7, and not really having been updated much since then.  Still, there are folks there who have replied to questions asked, including Adobe staff.
    Since I don’t read that forum myself, and won’t see your question asked/answered there, let me point out something else that may help (in case others there would not).  You say “I have all of the Adobe ColdFusion 9 dev books”, and that may mean various books like the CF Web App Construction Kit books that Ben, Ray, myself, and others have done.
    But did you know that there is an entire chapter on the CF Report Builder in the free online CF9 manual called “Developing ColdFusion 9 Applications” (a 1300-page manual which many miss entirely , as happened with the versions for CF8 and 7 as well). Many people never even know there is any such “documentation” from Adobe for working with the CF Report Builder. I’ll note also that we (writers of books) may not always get into all the detail that’s in those docs because, well, we don’t want to duplicate their effort. But I know even some writers/bloggers/forum respondents never even know of the manuals, as they are rarely referred to.
    In your case, with the CFRB, it’s especially important to be aware of its substantial chapter:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24 -6fc2.html
    For instance, you may already know about this but there you’ll learn that there is a QUERY attribute for the CFREPORT, whereby you can build the query dynamically (as any CFQUERY can be) and then pass that resultset to the report. That may suffice to solve the challenge for you, but if it does not, then you may want to at least take a moment to peruse that chapter before proceeding to ask the question in that other forum.
    And if the book doesn’t help (and I grant it may not) them one more suggestion before you may re-post the question on the other forum: it really may be best for you not to make reference to MySQL or CF9 in your subject, as you did here. There’s doesn’t really seem anything about your challenge that’s specific to them, but saying it in your subject may limit who would read/reply (if they don’t use with MySQL or are not yet on CF9).
    Hope something there’s helpful.
    /charlie
    PS If you may feel that this answers the question, please do mark it as such in the forum web interface, if you would please. Thanks.

  • Report Builder Download

    I'm pretty new at this stuff, so I have a stupid question. I need Oracle Report Builder 6.0.8.10.1 to make a few changes in a already done report. I'm trying to find everywhere, and all links go to Oracle Developer Suite 10g. Is it correct ? Do I have to download the whole suite, just for the Report Builder ?

    Hello,
    You can download Forms & Reports 6i at :

  • Hyperlinks to new window in CF Report Builder

    I'm working in Coldfusion Report Builder, and I'm trying to include hyperlinks that target a new window. However the builder only allows me to input the URF and doesn't have any options. Any idea on how to get around this??? Please help!!!

    The Madness wrote:
    Seems like it should be doable.  I usually us a crosstab and it is relatively straightforward.  Any suggestions in Reprot Builder?  Thanks.
    A report will accept whatever data-set you provide it.
    The trick is to do the crosstab using your database engine. The result-set returned by the database engine can easily be used to create a report.
    It is worth noting that Report Builder is for creating fixed layout reports. It is not possible to have a dynamic number of fields generated at run-time. You have to explicitly place each field in the report.
    What this means is that your cross-tab query must always return the same number of fields, or at a minimum it needs to return the fields that appear in the report.
    If you have more questions feel free to ask.

  • Display issue with HTML formatted text in report builder

    I am using the FCKeditor in my application to allow endusers
    the ability to create formated text on reports. We curently are
    experiencing 2 issues: 1. If you copy and paste from MS Word
    2003/2007 it will not display the text correclty in the report; 2.
    If you use the FCKeditor toolbar to insert bullets or a numeric
    list it will not align the text correctly on the report. We are
    using Coldfusion 8 with Hotfix 1 and Coldfusion Report Builder's
    lastest build release.
    Has one experiences this same issue with HTML fields not
    printing correctly using the Report Builder? What other HTML
    editors besides FCKeditor might we use?

    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by fdenis:
    Hi Gavin,
    If I understand well, your HTML tags are coded directly in your fields in the database, right? Because if it was not the case, you could have use a format trigger checking for which destination you're generating your report...
    if UPPER(:DESFORMAT) = 'HTML' or
    UPPER(:DESFORMAT) = 'HTMLCSS'
    then
    -- insert your HTML code in the value
    -- of your field. something like...
    newValue := '<B>' | | :YOUR_FIELD | | '</B>
    srw.set_field_char( 0, newValue );
    else
    -- when generating to other format,
    -- you'd have to add the formatting as
    -- you want.
    end if
    return( true );
    Of course, if it's not acceptable to remove the HTML tag from your database fields, you could develop a procedure that would translate your HTML tags to the good formatting (eurk... ;-)
    Good luck... :-)

  • CROSSTAB Using Report Builder

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to create a crosstab report using Report
    Builder?
    Is so please suggest some references.
    Thanks for your time.

    Crosstab reports are not supported by the ColdFusion Report
    Builder and Print Engine.
    See
    this
    thread for more detail.
    You may be able to accomplish this using cfreport and
    leveraging the Crystal Reports engine. Crystal Reports has a
    crosstab report wizard.

  • How to hide a report builder field if it is zero

    I am using Coldfusion Report Builder. If the value of a feild is zero, how can I hide it or show a blank. Keep in mind this field is a DollarFormat() field.

    scottnweber wrote:

    When you click on the field in Report Builder, look near the bottom of the Properties window, in the "Print Control" section.
    You will see an entry labelled "Print When Condition". Put an expression next to it that returns true or false.
    For example, in your case, you would put something like the following:
    MyField neq 0
    Where "MyField" is the name of your field. This expression will only allow the field to be printed when its value is not zero.
    Since you're targeting the value of the field you don't have to worry about the formatting that you used next to "Expression" in the "Data" section of the Properties window.

  • Rwrun60.exe - only with complete Report Builder Installation

    Hello,
    what has to be installed in order to run rwrun60.exe
    in a "standalone" modus. does a complete report builder
    environment has to be installed ? or can rwrun60.exe
    somehow run on its own ?
    Thank you
    Thorsten Lorenz

    I think you have to install complete report builder. If you install only report runtime it causes problems while running reports.

  • Reports Builder has encountered a problem and needs to close.

    Hi All,
    The report builder in my system is behaving weirdly. If I open a report, which is having a normal browser output, it allowing me to see the data model, layout model and everything. And if I open a report, which is having a PDF output, it's not allowing me to open the Layout.
    Here the output is in context of Oracle Applications front-end. And as I know it shouldn't be a problem with Report Builder.
    It errors out with the following message.

  • Need help understanding MS SQL Server 2008R2 and Report Builder 3.0 and user access / priviledges.

    Having Problems with connections and access.  I have spent the last 2 days reading various threads regarding SQL Reporting Services pertaining to access and connections.
    First, let me explain what I have done to date.
    1)  I am using Windows 7 - Home Premium.
    2)  I downloaded and installed MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.  This was successful.
    3)  I downloaded Report Server 3.0 - This was successful.
    4)  In IE, I tried logging onto http://servername/reports, but this failed.  After logging into IE
    via ' Run Administrator', I was able to access URL.  
           Next, I updated the security / trust sites as explained in the
    threads
    Next, I went to Folder Setting and added my user name and granted all roles (Browser,
    Content Manager, My
    Reports, Publisher and Report Builder).
    5)  Now, I can log into Http://servername/reports using my normal windows 7 user account.
    6)  Next, I opened Report Builder 3.0.  However, I am having trouble connecting to report  
    server.  I tried connecting with
    http://servername/reports, but this failed. 
           However, If I change URL to http://servername/reportserver, it works.  BUT NOW, I have
    another problem.  When I
    execute the RUN button to create report, I get a  permission
    error.  "PERMISSION GRANTED TO USER ARE
    INSUFFICIENT FOR  PERFORMING THIS OPERATION".
    7)  Finally, I can not save reports to http://servername/reportserver when I select "Recent
    Site and Servers".  ERROR
    MESSAGE:  UNABLE TO OPEN OR SAVE REPORT
    8)  In my Reporting Services Configuration Manager:
    Web URL = http://servername:80/ReportServer
    Report Manager URL = http://servername:80/reports.
                What is strange, the Report Manager URL works for IE URL and WEB URL works for
    Report Builder connect (Even though it really does not work). 
    THREE QUESTIONS:
    1)  What URL should I use to connect in Report Builder.  
    2)  How do I update my normal Windows 7 user so I can run reports when I connect to report
    builder.        
    3)  How can I save my reports so they are displayed in IE Reporting services.  Note:  I was
    able to save report to
    documents folder and import into IE Reporting Services.
    4)  And finally, is it possible to add report builder 3.0 as a tab in my IE Reporting Services.  I
    save seen samples of Reporting Services screens where the instructor has Report Builder
    tab.
    Thanks
    Dan

    To answer question 1... it should connect through /ReportServer
    http://bretstateham.com/reporting-services-architecture-diagram%E2%80%A6/
    Report Builder 3.0 is not a web application, it is a client side application can be used using the click-once or downloaded from Microsoft's website.  If you are having issues, you might download and install it and try running it as an administrator.
