Displaying both Hindi and Arabic numerals in Oracle 10g PDF report

Hi….
Oracle experts told us to ask “In how many ways we can do it in oracle?” instead of asking “Can we do it in Oracle?” , I need ONE way to solve the following problem, it toke to much time and I don’t know if it can be solved !
The problem:
Can we print in - Oracle 10g reports - a PDF report with BOTH Hindi and Arabic numerals?
Well, at design time everything is fine, you can use right-to-left, left-to-right and the print preview is showing BOTH Hindi/Arabic numerals fine, but when I tried to produce it as a PDF, unfortunately its not, means its either all Hindi or all Arabic numerals !
I tried everything possible, environment variables: NLS_LANG, REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM, and REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERLS, setting Digit substitution to Context in windows regional settings, uifont.ali is modified properly according to metalink note, but nothing solved this issue!
I noticed something, when I used the DESTYPE=printer and DESNAME=PDF995 (one of the PDF printers) , it worked fine , means the problem could be in the generic PDF generator of the Oracle reports server,
But even with PDF995 you still need to feed the file name, which is not suitable for multi-user environment that need the report to be displayed via web browser.
Does anybody face this before?

I want to display the both Hindi and English font in single text object

hi...
my problem is i want to display both Hindi and English font together in a single text object...
the data is retrieved from Database in detail section...
is there any font which supports both Hindi and English font for single text object...
help me...

hi Vinayak,
If I understand your requirement, your field has full length word.
Now we should split this field into 3 parts.
Please Create 3 formulas.
Part1
stringvar s1;
s1:= left({field}, InStr({field},"("));
s1;
Part2
stringvar s2;
s2:= Mid({field},InStr({field},"(")+1 ,InStr({field},")")- InStr({field},"(") -1);
s2;
Part3
stringvar s3;
s3:= Mid({field}, InStr({field},")"));
s3;
Now Place a Text box in required section. Drag these 3 formula fields into the Text box.
Right Click the Part2 and apply mangal font.
Right Click the Part1, Part 3 and apply Arial font.
I have tried this and implemented successfully. Please let me know if you still face any issue.
Regards,
Vamsee

hi,
Is your single Text object contains combination of two strings?
for example:
{State}{City}
If yes,
Right Click the 1st string object within the Text box and 'Text Formatting' specify the Hindi Font
Right Click the 2nd string object within the Text box and 'Text Formatting' specify the English Font.

When will Smartview support display both aliases and members?

In the Essbase classic add-in, users had the ability to display both aliases and member names. When using Smartview with Essbase, this isn't supported. Are there plans to add this back? Thanks.

I heard this is the most requested parity feature of the addin, that Oracle may be doing this sometime in 2010 since it is a complicated fix.

Thanks in Advance

Should display both Spanish and English lang. at a time in BEx analyzer

Hi All,
I need to display both Spanish and English lang. in Bex analyzer.
InfoObject is language dependent.
Ex: For material it should display description in Spanish and English at a time.
Am only able to display one at a time.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Sandeep.

Hi Sandeep,
As Kodandapani mentioned it’s not possible to display both languages same
time as its mapping to same T table where LANGU is part of key.
I recommend you to create an attribute or maintain another table for other
language to display at a time.
if anybody get any better ideas then pl share.

Porting data from Oracle8i to XML and from XML to Oracle 10g

Hai
I have a client database (using oracle 8i) and a server database (oracle 10g).
Due to lack of leased line connectivity i want to port these offline data from 8i to 10g
using a modem(dial up connection).Is there is any way to port data from 8i to XML
and from XML to 10g.
thanks in advance
dejies

Thanks Nicolas,
As per documentation, it seems to be difficult for export/import from Oracle8i to 10g. Is that any way to achieve this? I have to append the newly imported data with old or exisiting data into Oracle10g.

Display both company AND name in contacts, incoming calls, messages, etc

Is there no way to have both a person's full name, AND company appear on the display of contacts and incoming calls??
I have over 2,000 contacts in my address book, many from the same company, and many with the same (or similar) names.
When someone with a very common name calls or texts, it's impossible for me to remember who they are without listing their company as well. If I have both Sam Michaels and Samantha Mitchells in my address book, sometimes the only way to distinguish between the two is knowing that Sam works for Viacom and Samantha works for Universal.
I've heard that the only way to do this is to include the company name in the person's main "name" field. This is problematic because A) it would take me a million years to go through and personally edit all of my 2k+ contacts, and B) this is completely counter-intuitive of having the company/office/job title lines available as fields in the address book in the first place.
Does anyone know a way around this at all?? Apple really needs to find a way to fix this, as it's super inconvenient for business professionals. This is just another one of my many frustrations with Apple products being not intuitive for workers in the corporate world.

I'm not aware of a way to do this, however I'm certain that when my phone rings, it shows the person's name and company information that I have written in contacts. I've not taken time to check lately, but that seems to be the case for contacts that have a company name in them. Ones that do not have a company name show the person's name and then the label for the phone number they are using, such as home, work, mobile, etc.
Otherwise, feedback to Apple goes HERE, and then just click on the appropriate subject.

Bex Web Ad-hoc Analysis Template - Displaying both Data and Graph Tabs

Hello Everyone
I am asking this as I would not have belived this if I hadn't seen it for myself. I was showing somone a BW report using the standard Bex Ad-hoc analysis on the Web. They managed to display both the data analysis tab and the Graphical display tab on the same page, with the data at the top and the graph underneath. I could see that both of the tabs were highlighted at the top. It was great because as you manipulated the data in the navigation block, the graph changed at the same time.
I have looked in all my documentation and I have not found anything.
I have tried to replicate what this user did, but cannot. I have tried all the usual things like Shift control and alt, but it doesn't work.
Does anyone know how to do this, because the user loves it and I cannot explain to them how they must have done it!
Points will be awarded for the successful answer!!
Many thanks to you all
Gareth

Thanks Andrew
I am glad you understand what I mean, as I thought I was seeing things when I saw it!
I feel I am so close to the answer, but when I do the drop down on the Graphical display tab for "display as" it only gives me the options
Column Chart
Line Chart
Pie Chart
Bar Chart
Stacked Bar Chart
Do I need to do something else, or I am I in the wrong part of the report and I am running BW 3.5.
Thanks for your reply so far
Gareth

Locale values for the arabic db in oracle 10g

Please suggest me the locale values for the Oracle 10g client/server that can store arabic data.
Please also suggest me the best value for the "Database character set".
Note: Both my client and server will be installed on the Arabic version of Windows XP.

Possible character sets for Arabic are AL16UTF16, AL32UTF8, AR8ISO8859P6, AR8MSWIN1256, UTF8
I suggest to use AL32UTF8 as database character set.
so NLS_LANG at client side would be e.g. ARABIC_QATAR.AL32UTF8 ({NLS_LANGUAGE}_{NLS_TERRITORY}.{CHARACTERSET})
Check [Locale Data|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/applocaledata.htm] for other possible supported languages, territories, character sets. (you can even see recommended character sets in this page)
