Download Link in Interactive Report isn't Showing

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but I have an interactive report which allows users to download the report (under the Actions menu).
The download formats that were used previously were HTML, Email and PDF, and it worked perfectly fine. However, I want to remove PDF as one of the options so I unchecked it... but now the Download link won't appear at all.
Does anyone know how to get the Download link to appear again? Thanks in advance!

If I turn on everything except PDF it works.
Also PDF off and CSV off, still works.
PDF off, CSV off, RTF off it works.
Only HTML and EMAIL on, it breaks.
HTML on, EMAIL on, RTF on it works.
Sounds like there is a bug here and it's a matter (for now) of finding the most acceptable combination to you and your business needs.

Display image for BLOB Download link in Interactive Report

I have a table containing BLOB data and am displaying the table in an interactive report. I would like to replace the "Download" text link with an icon that represents the MIME type of the BLOB, but can't seem to find a way to make the substitution. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks.
-Jeff

Hey Ben,
Thanks for the suggestion. I understand what you are saying, the problem is that when you have an interactive report that includes a BLOB and you use the built-in method for displaying a download link, it only gives you the option of using a text link. The method is outlined in the online help under:
Home > Advanced Programming Techniques> About BLOB Support in Forms and Reports > About BLOB Support in Reports
This is done by using the following syntax in the Number/Date Format of the column attribute of the BLOB:
DOWNLOAD:CC_DOCUMENTS:CONTENTS:ID::MIME_TYPE:FILENAME:UPDATED_ON::attachment:View
Where the last parameter is the link text. The only problem is that there is no option for substituting an image rather than the link text. That's what I'm trying to work around. Sorry if you new all of this already, but I wanted to explain what I've already done. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Download data from interactive report

Hi all. I'm on apex 3.1.1.00.09.
I have this problem: when I download data from interactive report I can download only in CSV and PDF. If I try to download into pdf it creates a file of only 1 KB.
I would know if I must configure my apex in order to download correctly in pdf and if I must configure it in order to download in doc and xls format.
Thanks all for collaboration,
Fabrizio

Thank you for your reply.
I am able to download the csv file, but my problem is: I don't want the column headings to show.
Is it possible to download only the data, not the column headings?

Substitution for DB link in Interactive report

Hi,
Is it possible to use substitution strings for DB link in Interactive report in same way like it works in Classic reports (by choosing Generic column) or in any other way.
Currently when i'm trying to put SQL like :
select empno, empname from emp@&DB_LINK.
I receiving the error •Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found)
APEX 4.1, Oracle 11.2

It is possible. We have an application that uses the same code set (pages) where the user can select which target instance will be used at run time.
The trick is that the DB link substitution variable must contain the "@" character. So your query looks like:
select ...
from my_table&TARGET.
where...
&TARGET. must be something like "@my_database" .
At compile time, &TARGET. will be null, and the table name can be resolved, if there really is a table, my_table in your parsing schema, or a vaild synonym.
You can have a synonym available at "compile" time, when you save the page source. For example, the synonym my_table equates to my_table@your_database, which has to exist.
There several other things that must be done, but this should get you started.

HI,
For example your model node is CountryModelNode and the value node binded to table is CountryValueNode then:
int sizeCountryModelNode=wdContext.nodeCountryModelNode().size();
for(int iCount=0;iCount<sizeCountryModelNode;iCount++)
   if("IN".equalsIgnorecase(wdContext.nodeCountryModelNode().getCountryModelNodeElementAt(iCount).getCountryCode())
   || "US".equalsIgnorecase(wdContext.nodeCountryModelNode().getCountryModelNodeElementAt(iCount).getCountryCode()))
    IPrivateCountryValueNode.ICountryValueNodeElement element=wdContext.createCountryValueNodeElement();
    element.setCountryCode(wdContext.nodeCountryModelNode().getCountryModelNodeElementAt(iCount).getCountryCode());
    element.setCountryName(wdContext.nodeCountryModelNode().getCountryModelNodeElementAt(iCount).getCountryName());
   wdContext.nodeCountryValueNode().addElement(element);
Note: Bind CountryValueNode to the table:

Show File name as download link in a report

Hi people,
In an application (APEX 4.2.1) I have a reprot whith a file donwload column. I implemented the download as a BLOB column with "DOWNLOAD" as Format Mask. This works fine, I can download attachments, no probs so far. However, I want the Download Text to show the name of the actual file instead of a static text "Download".
Any suggestions on this?
Kind regards,
Vincent Deelen

Hi fac586,
Thanks for your reply.Actually, my first thougt was to use #FILE_NAME# reference, I tried it again, but it doesn't really work for me. I end up with a download link that reads exactly "#FILE_NAME#".
I've put up an example in my demo app to show:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=vincentdeelen:31:0:::::
I've included screenshots of the page setup in the report.

Vincent

Edit Link on Interactive Report

I have an Interactive report with the edit link on each record to call a form. Is it possible for the edit link to show on specific records (instead of all)? I have a security requirement where the users shouldn't be allowed to edit (go the maintenance form) certain records.

I'm not sure if u're talking about default link?
If yes u can ignore that one and try to insert Your own image or link as ' a href=... text /a ' as Link
in a href U can use javascript, or write page url - it should work
and now answer about Your question - "text" can be inside decode or nvl (nvl2) function where u can combinate with all kind of sql functionality (as query) to specify when it should show text or when it should show null (when it's null U can't clisk on this.
edit: or as Roel wrote ;) - more easier way

Link to interactive report with filter values containing : or %

Hi,
I have an application written in PL/SQL. The application takes input from users, and then constructs a URL for an interactive report, concatenating the user input as filter values for the report. Sometimes, the input values contain characters such as the colon (:) or the percent sign (%). In these instances, APEX appears to ignore the rest of the URL beyond the first colon or percent sign in the filter values. For example, in the following URL, the first filter value is "Oracle Database 11g: Workshop I":
http://abc.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=129:8::::8,CIR:IRC_TITLE,IR_PROJECT_STATUS:Oracle Database 11g: Workshop I,Completed
The Interactive Report displayed for this URL shows all courses whose title contains "Oracle Database 11g" -- in other words, more records are displayed than should have been if the complete set of filters were applied in the query (i.e., TITLE = Oracle Database 11g: Workshop I, and PROJECTS_STATUS = Completed).
How should I construct the URL so that the colons (:) and percent signs (%) which may be part of the filter values are treated correctly?
Thanks,
Jenny

Thanks to Joel Kallman, here's the answer:
The ‘f’ procedure has a parameter named p_sep. This is the separator used for the arguments in the ‘p’ parameter in the call to the ‘f’ procedure. The default value for this separator is ‘:’, obviously.
If you have data values that contain the separator, then you can use a different character for your separator (you may need to manually specify the URL instead of using the declarative link attributes of a column in a report).
Using the pipe symbol ‘|’, I was able to take:
http://st-curr.us.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=129:8::::8,CIR:IRC_ROWFILTER:Database 11g: Administration Workshop I
and change it to:
http://st-curr.us.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=129|8||||8,CIR|IRC_ROWFILTER|Database 11g: Administration Workshop I&p_sep=|
which now works.

it was my mistake, i used the column name of the report instead the column name of the query, using:
'f?p='|| :APP_ID ||':1:'|| :APP_SESSION ||'::NO:1,RIR:IREQ_SERVER_LOCATION:HSV'
it works fine, but maybe someone can help me to have more than one "filter", how should the link look? i tryed:
'f?p='|| :APP_ID ||':1:'|| :APP_SESSION ||'::NO:1,RIR:IREQ_SERVER_LOCATION:HSV:IREQ_SERVER_TYPE:ORA'
but it doesnt accept the second filter
thank you

Link to interactive report with filters

I want to put a link to a page with an interactive report. But the link should setup a filter for the interactive report.
For example, if I'm looking at a client, I want a link that sends me to the activity reports, but filtered to show only that client already.
Is there a way to do that?
Thanks
Edited by: user1415525 on Sep 21, 2009 7:34 AM

Hello,
Set a parameter IR_<COLUMN_NAME_IN_IR> to #<COLUMN_NAME_IN_LINK>#
Example : Set IR_ORDER_ID to #ORDER_ID#
or for you
Set IR_CUSTOMER_ID to #CUSTOMER_ID#
(Of course you have to change the column names)

Need Help calling Dynamic Action from Link in Interactive Report

Hello I have an Interactive Report. I would like to have a Dynamic Action called when the user selects a row (Clicks a Link).
I am running Application Express 4.0.2.00.07 on Oracle 11gR1.
Any help would be great.

Hi VANJ,
Sorry for the poorly written original post. I will be much more specific.
I have a Interactive Report on page 40. That report has a column named X_UID that is a link back to page 40 and sets a text item named P40_X_UID in a Region we will call "Form X" with the value of the column. That page refresh also then calls a Automated Row Fetch process to fetch all the values needed for the rest of the page items in the "Form X" region. Also "Form X" region has a conditional display on to only display when P40_X_UID is not null.
What I would like to do:
When the user clicks on link in the IR for X_UID instead of the "Form X" region becoming visible I would like to become modal. I am trying to use a Plug-In named "ClariFit Simple Modal - Show". I have it working with a Dynamic Action when you click a Page Item. But I would like to to work when the link is clicked and the data populated.
I hope that helps some.
