Creating a spreadsheet report in 10g

I am trying to use the desformat=spreadsheet option. Does this open the reports directly in excel. After doing a little research it seems to only work if you write it out to a file and then open thta file with excel. Can you tell me exactly how it is supposed to work?

Hello,
If you execute the reports with the Reports Servlet :
http://server:port/reports/rwservlet?server=..&report=..&destype=cache&desformat=spreadsheet&...
the output will be opened in Excel automatically ...
regards

Adobe Reader error with PDF reports created using AS Reports Server 10g

Hi,
Recently when trying to run reports in our system (which uses Oracle Application Server Forms & Reports Services 10g - 10.1.2.0.2), sometimes when we try to run a report in PDF format the following happens:
1. A new window appears as expected
2. This window hangs/appears to try to load for a couple of minutes
3. Eventually an Adobe Reader error message appears saying the following:
*"There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again".*
I have noticed that this problem only seems to occur when the client has Adobe Reader 9.3 installed (8.2 works fine).
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a known workaround or is this a known issue?
Many thanks,
Chris

Does anyone have any ideas on this or has anyone encountered the same problem?
thanks

How to create dynamic web report in 10G Grid Control

Hi experts..
In OEM 9i, it provides a OEMgenerationServlet servlet to generate dynamic Web reports, my company uses the servlet to generate many OEM report, those reports cal also take parameters, such as dabatase name. the generated web reports are viewable to public end users. I am looking for a similar function in 10G Grid control...
Does anyone have the similar requirement, any suggestion will be highly appreciated..

Hi,
Thank you for the reply. I read about Clear and Purge from Oracle Doc about 10gR2, but nothing about R1. I drilled down all the way, can't find any thing to click for clear and purge. And I can't find anything from Oracle Doc, either.

How can I modify column width in a spreadsheet report without using an Excel template

I currently use the LabVIEW Report Generation toolkit in LabVIEW 2011SP1 to create simple spreadsheet reports that I can build/print without having Microsoft Office products installed. I really like being able to do this, and it allows me to generate nice on-demand data reports - I'm also not tied to having Office installed on the system I'm using, so this works on just about any test fixture I can install the software on.
I recently have a requirement that I must have variable-length columns in my report. I currently use the VI "Append Text Table to Report" in order to create a text table, but the column width requirement is that all columns must be equal width UNLESS I use an Excel Template file to define my column widths.
My questions are:
Is it possible to create a text table and define per-column widths without using an Excel Template? If so, how? My report mainly has a lot of small numerical values for the columns, but some columns contain system names or status messages - I really hate the longer text blocks wrapping and taking up so much real-estate when if I could control the column widths I can get all my data on a single line.
I'll admit I haven't tried this myself yet, but if I use an Excel Template will that require me to have Excel installed on the PC in order to print/generate reports?
Is there a recommended way (with an example) of generating a text table in a report with or without using the "Append Text Table to Report" VI that allows me to have custom column widths that doesn't require me to manually build a custom print page? If I do have to create a custom print page, what would be the most straightforward approach?
Thanks!

Sure, I'll provide a pared down example that demonstrates my use-case:
I have a control to the VI that takes in a 2D array of strings representing the data I want printed in a table. I am generating a standard report, adding a table to the report, and printing it. The first VI is "New Report.vi", the second VI is "Append Table to Report.vi", and the third is "Print Report.vi", all found standard in the Report Generation palette.
Note that the "Append Table to Report.vi" has an input parameter "Column Width" with a default value of (1). This input parameter is a single input parameter, which defines the column widths of ALL the columns in my table - hence, with the VI the way it is, all my columns will be 1 inch wide.
I find myself needing to be able to define per-column widths, not just a single global column width parameter.
The only way I have found to do this is by using an Excel template file. The "New Report.vi" takes in a "template" parameter, and if used, the report generation toolkit can be set to ignore the "Column Width" input parameter on the "Append Table to Report.vi" by setting the width value to -1. Instead it will launch Excel, open the template file provided, build the table using the template, will close Excel, and will attach the generated table to the report. However, I have a strict requirement that Microsoft Office NOT be required to be installed on the computer.
So, without using Excel, is there a way to generate a table in a report and define the width of each column individually?

Help to create complex graphs in oracle 10g reports

As my company has migrated from 6i to Oracle 10g, but as graph ogd files are obselete in Oracle 10g , I am trying to create new graphs in Oracle 10g.
But problem I am facing that I cannot give axis value 'LABEL' or define my own scale or draw any lines on chart or inshort plot graph as I need. Moreover no way to read objects on Chart. In forms 6i it was easy to read object with command "OG_GET_OBJECT(OBJECT_NAME)". Helps tell me to use graph.dtd but I am unable to use it or I don't know how to use it. No documentation available anywhere how to use graph.dtd syntax.
Is it possible to achieve my above goals or any other tools to customize charts.

Hello FormsEleven,
First of all very Thanks for reply. Thanks for your valuable time given to me.
I don't have any error in my java/jinit console infact latest jinit is running and web browser start with message applet are being loaded and Oracle forms service installed successfully. All other forms details are very well displayed on browser form, only bean area remains empty. Following are my formsweb.cfg details. Note on below [bigraph] section I have commented some lines but that also done after my form did not work.

Creating backup report OEM 10g

I have installed OEM 10.2.0.5 and i am trying to figure out how to create a custom report for all backup jobs.
Unfortunately this new and "improved" version of OEM doesn't have a single report like that.
Can anyone tell how to write a script in OEM that will give one master report for all successful backup jobs?
Thanks.

Hello,
build a standard report using REPORT BUILDER (Oracle 10g Release 2)
set
DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET

No Excel Controls for desformat=Spreadsheet report output

I created a report in 10g and ran the report from Reports Server with desformat=sppreasheet option. But, the spreadsheet is not having any excel controls(menu items, toolbar etc) like how we see a regular Excel spreadsheet. Can some one help me if there is any setting to make the Excel controls appear in o/p generated via reports server.
Thank you.

When we select the SPREADSHEET Option in 10g, either I will have the output generated as Free Flow Text in the Internaet Explorer(Where you right click and take Export to Excel) or the Report will be generated in the Excel Format(Specify the desname=<Filename>.xls with no Grid Lines...

Logfile Generation utilizing "Excel" (Creating and Appending Report)

All,
As always, thanks for the help you have given me in the past....especially the Vets. I have tried to figure out a solution to my issue from the message board, but no solution seems to fit what I am doing.
Here is my situation...... I am using Labview to test my product one unit at a time. I have always used Teststand and report generation from there, but this time it is strictly Labview. This is my first attempt to create a logfile with Excel that appends one xls file everytime one unit is tested.
The way my test is set up now, I test and collect the data in an array for when I created the logfile generation VI. I took several stabs at it, looked at examples, but cant figure out the direction I need to go to create this. Here is the parameteres necessary for the logfile (spreadsheet).
-All UUT's will go into one spreadsheet and the spreadsheet will be appended by adding new data in next available row.
-Data is imported to spreadsheet in array format.
-Test data that passes will be green, test data that fails will be red (I can figure this out, but this is why I need to use Excel)
-I want to use Excel so I have more flexibility for graphs and things of that nature in the future.
It seems rather simple, but not for me.....lol. If I go to the Report Generation Toolkit, i see "Create Report" and "Append Report"....but Append Report still wants the "report input" node wired. What do I wire that to? For example, if I have an excel spreadsheet called hangover.xls, do I somehow wire hangover.xls to the input? I am having trouble finding answers. I would really appreciate a simple JPG or VI so I can understand the setup for what I want to do.
Comments and links to threads/help appreciated!
Ryan

Hi Evan,
Thanks for the other examples....I thought I was going to be able to manipulate them into what I want, but ended up spending about 6 hours playing with it and up to 2am. I am getting so frustrated with this. This is new ground for me, I never have experimented with logfile creation. I am sorry to keep bothering you with this but I am ready to pull my hair out. I attached a couple Vi's....Spreadsheet import is the main VI and report.vi is the sub.....i need to rename them better but haven't got there.
First off, that VI you posted that I couldn't open, could you just take a JPG of the block diagram? That would really help.
I need to create a spreadsheet with logfile data in rows. The spreadsheet is to be appended for each unit under test. Each unit under test gets one row and all data is written at the end of the test. If you look at the spreadsheet_import.vi, I am basically taking a bunch of 1D arrays of data to create one long 1D array for one row.
Every month a new spreadsheet is created (so log file data is divided into months) , and that is what the report.vi does....it looks to see if the filename is already created and if not, sends a boolean to the write to spreadsheet file to append. I reverted to "write to spreadsheet" because for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to use the worksheet portion to do this. I would think this should be pretty simple, but I cannot figure out and its not for lack of trying.
If I use "write to spreadsheet", I am going to run into problems because I ultimately want to use a excel template with formulas but if I can figure it out, this will have to do.
All I really want to do is to create a spreadsheet if one doesnt exist or append if it does, combine all my 1d array data, and create one row with this data. The other issue I ran into before is I cant figure out how to tell Excel where the next row is.......UUGHHHH! This is definitely stressing me out as I have a deadline and I will gladly sent a case of beer to Norway for the help received.
Dying Here,
Ryan

Creating a crystal report using excel

I have an excel spreadsheet that I would like to access to create a crystal reports. But it seems that I have to first save it as an access or other database file. But this information changes frequently so I it would be more efficient to access the excel file directly. I tried using the crystal wizard addin in excel, but then when I run the report I get the error message "Server has not yet been opened". Any other ideas on how to create report of excel data directly?

Hello Guys ,
I have something similar problem ,but not exactly.
our requirement is We are scheduling one crystal report to generate excel and sent to FTP location.This Excel file (in FTP) should be the input of new Crystal Report using ODBC (RDO) connection.
I am able to create the ODBC connection,but that ODBC connection is not showing me the selected excel sheet in the Crystal Report ODBC Connection.I tried with Remote as well as local drive Excel also.
I tried on different machine (thought ,it could be Driver specific),but all machines does have same issue.
Is there any settings or driver upgrades require for CR XI R2 /2008 in order to use ODBC (RDO) for EXCEL FILES.I didnt find any comments /resolution in Google too.
My steps -
1) Create a sample Excel file - only few records
2) Created a System ODBC connection pointing this excel file say "TEST1"
3) Opened A Blank Crystal Report
4) Create a New connection
5) Select ODBC RDO
6) Create new connection and selected the newly created SYSTEM DSN "TEST1"
7) check the selected excel is displayed in ODBC RDO connection??
If it is a Crystal Report issue or ODBC Driver issue ,please let me know if anyone have came across similar issues.
thanks in advance.

How to create a standard report that allows filtering?

Hi Guys and Gals,
Sometimes, the standard report is great because it gives the user the feeling of a grid. i.e. All of the values are editable on one page, kind of like a spreadsheet. That is sometimes very useful. But if there is a lot of data, a filtering mechanism is necessary.
So will one of you Apex gurus please tell me how to create a standard report that also allows data filtering?
Allowing the user to specify the number of rows displayed would be peachy-keen too.
Thanks,
Kim
P.S. I'm running Apex 4.1 with Oracle 11g.

Your idea sounds very promising, but I apparently need a nudge in the right direction. From "Create Page", I clicked on "Form" and then "Tabular Form". Why would you do this? The advice given was
create a standard report page using the Create New Page wizardi.e. go to Home > Application Builder > Application > Create Page and click Classic Report, this was suggested because the original post said:

Nothing about forms. Tabular Forms, Tabular Forms. Despite many enhancements over the last few versions, tabular forms still cause problems, especially for novices trying to go beyond their own competence and the built-in capabilities of wizard-generated tabular forms.
More good advice: Re: Newbie question-how does the tabular form work? How to populate prim key? and—if based on decent database design—out of the box you have a usable and robust application. Use an Interactive Report or a custom report template and add some CSS and you can get something a lot more powerful, flexible and better looking than any tabular form. Spend the time you haven't wasted on frustrated hacking of tabular forms adding more features and enhancements to your app.

Calling a Web Service in Oracle Report Developer 10g?

Hello,
Does Oracle Report Developer 10g supports Web Services (calls) or XML files as a Data Source?
If yes. From what version?
Thanks.

ok, so you have at least 2 solutions:
1. you get the data into a loop through your Java array.
2. you use the EXEC_SQL package function to create a dynamic SQL cursor
Select ... from the_table where code in ('c1', ..., 'cn')Francois
