Thanks in advance

Well, for me, it looks almost the same. Can you please provide two screenshots so I can see exactly the differences? Anyway, I don't think you can achieve a IDENTICAL representation, but a very close one is possible.

  • Is it possible to set up a form with a submit button where the data in the fields gets added to an existing excel file, just like 'collect response' but without connecting to the internet?

    I have a form that I want to use to collect peoples information with a submit button. I am trying to get the data that gets inserted to be added to an existing excel doc when the submit button gets hit, the form then resets and someone else can fill in the same form, hit submit and his data gets added to the existing data in the same excel doc. It is basically the same as the 'collecting response' option but without having to be online. The form is going to be used at a boat-show and I am going to get people to fill it out on an iPad. Does anybody know if this is possible?

    You could connect a bunch of 3700s to each computer and do this . 
    Or...since you're the one who monitors the monthly limit, you could restrict an individual's internet access once you see that you guys are coming too close to the cap. 
    I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

  • Display report in PDF w/o save

    Hi,
    I want to display Report on xmii browser without saving , I tried PDF action but it is giving error when calling url "File doesn't begin with %PDF-". When using image saver for saving file it saved on given path successfully.
    I also used isBinary=true in url paremeter, which I found in forum for one of the reason of this error but still it didn't work.
    Steps I am following for test case:
    1. Create PDF document action block
    2. Create PDF page action block - link to pdf document
    3. Craete PDF text action block with some value - link to pdf document
    4. Assign output parameter of PDF document action to BLS transaction output of type string.
    5. call url:
    http://servername/Lighthammer/Runner?Transaction=TestBLS/TestPDF&OutputParameter=Output&isBinary=true&Content-type=application/pdf
    Please advise if I am missing something, I am using xMII 11.5.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Alok

    Muzammil - Indeed Runner works with 11.5 too and its the Key to trigger a BLS trx via URL.
    You can use Illuminator to execute Query templates so on via URL.
    Alok - Your URL looks good but still if you are getting same error "%PDF" then check whether you are providing exact Output parameter you have mapped in BLS trx.
    Also you can refer to below few threads on the same issue.
    [Thread1|Displaying PDF files created with BLS in xMII 12]
    [Thread2|Creating PDF]
    [Thread3|Stream a PDF using Runner ?]
    Hope this helps!!

  • Display of report in excel format.

    Hi,
      How to display a report in excel format?? I have the display details in an internal table.
        Is it possible for the output to come in excel format as soon as we  run the pgm other.than downloading from list or grid format..If so how to do it??Kindly help..
    Thanks..

    Hi,
    Once you have all the data in the internal table, just use function module 'Download' or 'WS_Download' and pass the parameters in function module like the below for example.
    if not i_list[] is initial.                          " i_list is an internal table  
    call function 'WS_DOWNLOAD'                          
          exporting                                       
               filename            = filename1            
               filetype            = 'DAT'                
          tables                                          
               data_tab            = i_list               
               fieldnames          = i_header     "i _header has the field names
          exceptions                                      
               file_open_error     = 1                    
               file_write_error    = 2                    
               invalid_filesize    = 3                    
               invalid_table_width = 4                    
               invalid_type        = 5                    
               no_batch            = 6                    
               unknown_error       = 7                    
               others              = 8.                   
    endif.
    Now, the excel will be created which has all the data.
    Hope this helps.

  • Substitution string used in custom Report column name does not display in PDF version of report

    I am using Apex 4.2.6.00.03, Apex Listener 2 via Glassfish4 and have set up all my applications and reports on this system.  We previously used Oracle 10.2, with Apache with a custom fopping document.
    My issue is that I have a report that has custom column headings using a substitution string to pull in the begin or end date for the report.  When the report is run and displayed, the column headings appropriately display the date.  However, when I try to set up the Print to PDF option, the column headings are not displaying correctly.
    Is it possible to use a substitution string in the column heading?  I am able to use the substitution string in the Page Header and Page Footer and those display correctly.
    In the Report Attributes setup I have set the "Strip HTML" to Yes and I have four columns that are using the &"ITEM NAME". string.  See below for actual display:
    The report column headings in APEX displays correctly (bold is the substitution detail): 
    Fund    Account Description          Balance 07/01/2014     Budget/Goal FY 14-15     YTD Actual 02/28/2015         Ending Balance 02/28/2015
    In the Print Attributes setup, when I get to the Report Columns section, the Heading column displays the headings as set up in the Report Attributes custom and I am not able to edit these names.  See below:
    In the version of the report that is Printed to PDF I get the following for display:
    Fund           Account Description           Balance %26amp;P347_BEGIN_DATE.     Budget/Goal %26amp;P347_FY.     YTD Actual %26amp;P347_END_DATE.     Ending Balance %26amp;P347_END_DATE.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Pat

    First, the misspelled word is a test object and not data.
    Second, all data display correctly.
    Third, text object is displaying the old misspelled word.
    Fourth, I have eliminated the possibility that problems in of my pdf export routine cause this issue by exporting directly from Crystal Reports Viewer. I print the report to the crystal report viewer. The report looks good. The text object is spelled correctly. Then I click the Crystal Reports viewer's export button in the left upper corner and I export to both EXCEL and PDF. The excel export looks good. The pdf export is misspelled. All the export occurs internally in Crystal reports.
    Fifth, I found outthat all users who have this problem have the ADOBE PDF writer installed. I am just suspicious that ADOBE writer is interferring with Crystal export
    Sixth, I cannot recreate this problem on any of our development and test machines. It only happens on end-user laptops.
    Seventh, I changed the name of the report that had this problem and created a new version and installed on end-user laptop. The behaviour still persists. User saved the report as both RPT and PDF. RPT export looks good. PDF version has the spelling problem. Data on both reports is up-to-date and good. I copied the same RPT export to my PC and exported it to PDF, the pdf looks good. That is why I think something on the end-users laptops is causing the export to use some cached template.
    One more thing I did was to change the report name in VB.NET project, recreated a new package and installed on end-user's laptop. The same exact problem is still there.
    I have worked with Crystal Reports more than 15 years and I have never such a weird behaviour before. I know this sounds very weird. We are all baffled by what is happening.

  • CANNOT DISPLAY A WORD/EXCEL DOC IN BLOB FIELD INTO A PDF REPORT

    We created a report that should display several kinds of documents at one time.
    These documents are stored in BLOB columns in database. We had no problem to
    display txt, gif or jpeg, but we could not display doc, xls, pdf or html
    documents.
    In this report we set three different fields in which display different kinds
    of documents depending on mimetype. The first field has FileFormat property set
    to 'Text' in order to display 'text/plain' and 'text/html' mimetype documents.
    The second field has it set to 'Image', which allow to display 'image/bmp',
    'image/gif', 'image/x-png', 'image/pjpeg' mimetypes. The third field has this
    property set to 'OLE2', and here is where we would like to display other
    mimetype documents as 'application/msword', 'application/vnd.ms-excel',
    'application/pdf'.
    We run the report on the web using:
    http://<server>:<port>/dev60cgi/rwcgi60
    ?server=<report_server>
    &report=<rdf_name>
    &destype=localfile
    &desname=<report_name.pdf>
    &userid=<user>/<password>@orcl9i
    &desformat=pdf
    <6meters>
    I have already read a lot of notes in Metalink but I could not find any
    solution. Is there any way to display a Word/Excel document from database in a
    report?
    We tried to convert Word/Excel docs to html format, but when we tried to
    display an HTML document in the report, we found that Oracle Reports displays
    the source code instead of the HTML format document. So, this did not work.
    What can we do?
    We also read somewhere that a possible solution would be to convert Word/Excel
    documents to a common format like GIF, JEPD or PDF. If processed as gif or jped
    the file could be displayed in the report. If processed as pdf the document
    could be linked in the report.
    I tried to display a PDF in the report but a blank box is displayed. How can I
    do this too?
    Any solutions?

    Hi,
    I have the same problem. I need to show up a BLOB, word file(.doc), in a custom report. I made a simple query, extracting file_date( the column having the blog (.doc) file) from the database, in the report and placed it on a layout by assigning it to a field "F_1". I addressed the file format as OLE2.
    But when I run the Report in APPS, it shows up an error "REP-1814: Report cannot be formatted. Object 'horizontally and vertically' can never fit within 'F_1'.". I also played with the layout by changing its size but the response had no change.
    I am using Reports6i and the output format of the report is PDF. Is there a way to resolve the issue? Please share the solution if you have any for this.

  • Report to Form (in Update mode), update, "Close" back to report (just like QBE).

    Alright, I have been through the entire board and found bit and pieces here and there on how to do this, but I am not satisfied with the results. Answers to these questions will dictate whether we use this product or not.
    1) The QBE solution is great for the above EXCEPT I am unable (it seems) to make updates to the form portion of the Report/Form combination. I need to be able to lock off certain fields and disallow certain functions. Other's have asked whether this can be done. No answers issued forth.
    Is there some way short of hacking into the PL/SQL code of updating the form on a wizard created QBE?
    2) I was able to create my own report, link (via link object) to a custom form (update the form as I needed). Now I would like my users not to have to hit the query button (which is absurd in this case because they already have the proper record displayed). So I need to open the form in "update" mode. I have seen some different approaches to this on the board, and all kinds of code, but is there a simple way to do this (preferably from the tool, not hacking code)?
    I see the code in the various posting (including the FAQ), the question is where I put in in the context of my link from report to form (if it is in the native pl/sql, this is not an answer because we will not go that route; having code blown away by the tool and have to be reentered. It goes in in the context of the tool or we don't use the tool).
    Also, is there a way to utilize the "close" button from the QBE that so nicely takes you back to the report and does a refresh?
    This is the simplest app I could dream up to test this product and it looks like it falls short.
    In summation:
    1) Generate a report. (yes)
    2) Link to form (yes)
    2a) Link direct to record (no query click) (no, without hacking)
    3) update the form (yes, if after query click)
    4) Jump back to report at spot where you left, do automatic refresh (just like QBE) (No, without hacking)
    Again, this is the simplest and most common of apps, I cannot understand why it would be so hard to accomplish. What am I missing? Anybody on the board, please advise.

    If your report is created using ‘Reports From SQL Query’ then you can modify it using the following to achieve this:
    1. Remove the link from ‘Column Formatting’ section of the report object.
    2. In the SQL of the report , use custom link to the column where you want to provide link using the syntax
    select a.empno,’‘||a.ename||’‘ ename_link,a.deptno
    from scott.emp a
    Order by a.empno
    and the form will always open in ‘INSERT’ mode with passed values filled in.

  • Exporting CRM 2011 SSRS 2008 report to excel uses old Excel 1997-2003 version

    The Notes field is appearing cut off on the exported excel spreadsheet. I am wondering if it is related to the version of excel when exporting from CRM report. The only option is MS Excel 1997-2003, when in fact we have MS Office 2010 installed. How can
    I get the report export to excel to use the 2010 version? Will this clear up the issue of the excel cell from being too small to dispay the entire field? Any help would be appreciated, Thank you, Mark A M

    Hi Mark A M,
    In SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services, the Excel rendering extension renders a report that is compatible with Microsoft Excel 1997-2003. This is the unique renderer for Excel renderer in SSRS 2008. Since SSRS 2012, the default Excel renderer is the version
    compatible with Microsoft Excel 2007-2010. So we cannot export the report to excel use Microsoft Excel 2007-2010 version in SSRS 2008. This is by design.
    As to your issue, please note that the width of the column in Excel which inherit the width in the report. So we need make sure the cell width is sufficient to display the Notes field in report.
    Reference:
    Exporting to Microsoft Excel (Report Builder 2.0)
    Hope this helps.

  • Can i use excel at iPad just like what we do at Mac? Please advise what is the best app. even  paid.

    I don't know whether iPad had any app to work just like excel programme?

    There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that can be purchased separately. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go,  Quickoffice and Office2 HD. None have all the features and functions of Excel.
    If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.

  • Creating INCLUDE, just like REPORT prog.?

    Hi Experts,
    One simple question, pls. clarify ma that,
    In the process of VA01-Sales Order creation, I need to do not allow to create/save that doc. if PO#, MATNR, Batch r already existing in DB! in this case, I need to write logic in SAPMV45A, I found the corresponding User exit, so, I wanna insert my code as INCLUDE my_prog_code.
    So, to write INCLUDE, Is it just like Report prog.? like, SE38>my_name>create--->Type->INCLDE selection?
    Or any other things I hv to consider, to write a INCLUDE?
    thanq

    That is correct way to create an INCLUDE program. Just make sure that you correctly call the routines in the user exit and give reference of this program.
    Here is a pseudo logic.
    FORM USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAK.
    perform validate_DATA(<your include program name>).
    ENDFORM.
    Your code for routine VALIDATE_DATA will be placed in the include program.

  • I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this   الس    but they always appear like that ا ل س

    I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this   الس    but they always appear like that ا ل س

    MS Word for Mac has never supported Arabic.  You have to use other apps.  Mellel is best, but Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, or Open/LibreOffice should work OK.
    Sometimes you can make Word for Mac do connected Arabic if you are editing a document created with Windows Word.

  • Crystal Reports version 10  error when displaying report

    Hello: New member here, been lurking around for a while. A lot of good information here.
    I do hope this is the right place to ask this first question.  I have a customer that has a Crystal Reports 10 installation and cannot display reports since he upgraded from Crystal report 8 to Crystal reports 10
    The error he gets is pop message:
    CRAXDT error Occurred on Server Error Number: -2147221005 Error description: 006ASP 0177Server
    CreateObject Failed~800401f3
    Connection to the database is good we checked with query using SQL.
    Let me know what you think I should check next.
    I appreciate it.
    Thanks
    Damon

    1212487 - Error: "CRAXDRT Error Occured on Server. Error Number:-2147221005"
    Symptom
    A report is called through the Active Server Pages (ASP) Report Server to be displayed in the Report Viewer for ActiveX. However, the report is displayed with blank pages and when the viewer is switched to the Report Viewer for HTML the following error is displayed:
    "CRAXDRT Error Occurred on Server. Error Number:-2147221005 Error Description: 006ASP 0177 Server.CreateObject Failed~Invalid Class String"
    The same ASP application returns the report correctly when it is called from a client computer with the full version of Crystal Report 8 Developer Edition installed.
    Resolution
    It was found that the file, Emfgen.dll, was not installed and registered on the web server computer during the installation of the Crystal Reports ASP Reports Server. The report could be displayed correctly on the client computer, without Crystal Reports Developer Edition installed, after this file had been installed on the web server computer.
    For more information on installing the Crystal Reports web components please search for and download Scr8_WebManualInstall.zip from our website at:
