Excel Layout by Report Builder 6i

Hi All,
I am getting blank lines in the excel output of my report. Three blank lines
are coming together and are repeating after every 40 rows in the excel sheet.
Can somebody please guide me over this...??

That should be because one of your frame (main or repeating or any field) will be of fixed elasticity both vertical and horizontal.
Make all the fields,frames elasticity to variable (both vertical and horizontal) and then compile and run the report again and check the output.
Also compress the frames,field size in the layout model and make it smaller and compressed.

Querying Excel file in Report Builder 3.0

I set up an ODBC connection in Report Builder 3.0, connected to my Excel sheet as my data source, and I can set up a data set that queries one sheet at a time fine. But can I join two sheets in a data set query? I always get "Syntax error in FROM
clause." I thought I could use basic SQL syntax in the query and it would be fine. Is there a certain syntax or trick, or can this just not be done?

Hi (datasci),
You can create a linked server in SSMS, then create a procedure to join three sheets. Then you can call the procedure in a dataset.
As we tested in our environment, we create a linked server and the procedure like below:
--linked server
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = 'ExcelServer',
@srvproduct = 'Excel',
@provider = 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0',
@datasrc = 'c:\Book3.xls.xlsx', -- the path in the server where SQL server locates
@provstr = 'Excel 12.0;IMEX=1;HDR=YES;'
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'ExcelServer', 'false'--, 'sa', 'Admin', null
go
--procedure
CREATE PROC proce2
as
SELECT a.Name,a.Amount,b.PtNo,b.value,c.Gender
FROM ExcelServer...[Sheet1$] as a
left join ExcelServer...[Sheet2$] as b on a.Name =b.Name
left join ExcelServer...[Sheet3$] as c on c.PtNo =b.PtNo
Then we call the procedure in the dataset, we get the expected result:
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Dynamic Report layout issue - Report builder 10g

Hi all,
I try to implement a dynamic report that have:
1.my_header - variable elasticity
2.my_footer - variable elasticity - the bottom it is anchored to the bottom of my_report frame
3.my_body - variable elasticity -must fit between the header and footer - the top it is anchored to the bottom of my_header
All these frames are inside a main frame my_report(same height and width as body section).
The issue is that when my_body (I have another frame and a repeating frame inside it) has more than one page, the data overrides the footer data.
I don't want to put header and footer on margin.
It will be great if you can give me some hints, or if it is possible to implement such a report
Thanks,
Gicu Buimaga

What exactly do you mean? Are you running out of space on the page when running the report? That can only be resolved by modifying your layout.
Or are you running out of space in the Layout Editor? In the layout editor you can make a page as long as you want. One physical page is not limited to be designed between the page boundaries you see in the Layout Editor.
The frames you are using have to have a Variable Vertical Elasticity, though.

Column Heading in Excel layout coming to Second Line

Hi All,
I am doing an excel Layout using Report Builder 6i. There in excel layout output,
the cloumn headings are coming in two lines. I mean headings for few last columns are getting wrapped to second line, though corresponding data is coming
correctly.
Please help me over this if anyone had faced the same problem...
Thanks in Advance

You need to make sure that your column headings in Reports have no 'returns' in them. The text should be all on one line and the text in the layout editor should be no 'taller' than 1 line. Your frame around the column headings should also be no 'taller' than 1 line.
Hope this helps!!

CF Report Builder and Excel format

Hi Everyone,
I was trying to display a report in excel format in report builder. It shows the data, but I do not find the print button options, whereas I can see it with other formats. Is this the way it is, or do I need to format anything more within my report for showing up the print button option?This is only happening for excel format
Thanks

Hi Keiko,
Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
reports.
Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
Report Builder and you can judge then.
I am sure you will have fun with CF.
Thanks

Need help adding a second page on reports builder, paper layout.

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to create a paper layout using Reports Builder (10.1.2.0.2). This report will print out the following:
1) Invoice
2) VAT Slip (on a separate page)
So far I have created the invoice part and it is printing properly. Now I want to add the Vat slip. When I use the "Trailer Section" on the rdf report, I create a frame and inserted some text. The report ran just fine. Then in the same frame, I added a repeating frame. And now the report is completing with the following error:
APPLLCSP Environment Variable set to :
Current NLS_LANG and NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS Environment Variables are :
American_America.UTF8
stat_low = 86
stat_high = 0

Anyone have any idea why this is happening? Any help is much appreciated.
Or is there any way I can add a page that has to be printed after the invoice?
Thanks
-Nelly

If you have created your own template (but it sounds like you haven't) you will need to 'capture' that page so it repeats on following pages.
The whole process is described here:

11g Report behaves differently in Application Menu than Report Builder !

Hi,
I m working in 11g Reports and noted some objects, which shows different/no results when run from my application menu (through Web.Show_document & Run_Report_object), but these objects are OK when run in Report Builder (paper layout).
(1)
When I run report from my application menu, Formula Column shows no result i.e. 0 ,
but when same run from Report Builder (Paper Layout), formula column shows the right result.
Below is my Formula Column;
function RATEFormula return Number is
rt NUMBER(10,4);
Mt VARCHAR2(8);
begin
     Mt :=TO_CHAR(:FROMDATE,'RRRRMM');
if :RATETYPE='A' THEN
     LOOP
     SELECT (sum(nvl(amount,0))) / (sum(nvl(rect_qty,0)))
     INTO Rt
     FROM trhrect h,trdrect d
     WHERE TO_CHAR(h.v_dt,'RRRRMM')=Mt
     AND d.item_code=:ITEM_CODE
     AND h.unit=d.unit AND h.v_ser=d.v_ser AND h.v_no=d.v_no ;
EXIT WHEN RT >0 OR MT='201003';
     MT:=TO_CHAR(TO_NUMBER(MT)-1);
     END LOOP;
     end if;
RETURN NVL(Rt,0);
end;
(2)
Vertical Lines i.e. these lines are visible when run through Paper Layout in Report Builder, but these lines are not visible when run through my application menu.
Kindly advise me, its urgent.
Thanks/Regards
Dev.

1> Please check whether the same parameters are being passed to the reports(while running the report using the report builder and through the application). Apart from this there will be no issue.
2> Please check for any format triggers on the lines.

Getting a report in excel format from oracle report builder 10gDS release2

I want to get a report in excel format from oracle report builder 10gDS release2.
Is there ne method by which minimum effort is required for changing already made reports .
I have searched for it on internet :-
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/state/content/navId.3/navSetId._/vtTopicFile.htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs%7Crwwhthow%7Cwhatare%7Coutput%7Coutput_a_simpleexcel~htm/
Example, given in the last of the page opened from the above url, is not working.
Can neone plz explain the example and how to use it
Thanks & Regards
JD

Ok, for the release 2 its quite straightfoward, in your calling form you would have something like this code:
declare
     pl_id ParamList;
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
v_rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
v_repsrv     VARCHAR2(100):= 'yourreportserver';
v_serv varchar2(50) := 'yourservername' ;
begin
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
if not id_null(pl_id) then
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
end if;
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESTYPE' ,TEXT_PARAMETER,'Screen' );
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAMFORM' ,TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO' );
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('yourreport');     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER, v_repsrv);
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE );
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'SPREADSHEET' );
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid,pl_id);
v_rep := substr(v_rep,length(v_repsrv)+2,10 ) ;
end;
I have plenty of reports being formated to excel with this same method so it should work for you, the only diference with my previous code is this line.
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'SPREADSHEET' );
The rest remains untouched.
Hope it helps.

Export to Excel Error in SQL Server 2014 Report Builder/Viewer

Hi,
I am using the 2014 version of ReportViewer in a WinForm to display an RDL report.
The report was originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2), but has since been edited in Report Builder 3.0 (SQL 2014).
The report loads and displays OK, and even exports to Word and PDF. But when exporting to Excel and then opening the Excel document, the following error occurs:
"We found a problem with some content in <filename>. Do you want us to try and recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes."
If you click Yes, then a second message appears:
"Removed Part: /xl/styles.xml part. (Styles)
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part"
The Excel document then opens, and the data is there, but there is no formatting (no border columns, colours, bolds etc.)
The three interesting things are:
- When exported from SQL 2008 R2 Report Builder 3.0, which exports to .xsl instead of .xslx, it works
- A brand new report created in 2014 Report Builder 3.0 exports to .xslx great
- In Report Builder 2014, I stripped everything back and removed all rows and columns so the original table in the report only has one empty row and column it the export still errors - it is only by removing the original table and creating a brand new table
that export works OK
It appears to be a problem with the tablix, but ideally we don't want to have to recreate our reports from scratch to fix this issue.
Has anyone come across an issue like this before, and know of any potential resolutions to it?
Thank you.

Hello,
Based on your description, you render a report originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2) and export the report to excel with format of Excel 2007-2010.
Edit the report in Report Builder will not upgrader the report. In that case the report still with SSRS 2008 R2 RDL schema. Please try to upgrade the report by open the report in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) and then try again.
If you don’t want to upgrade the report, please try to export the report
with Excel 2003 rendering extension and check if the issue persists.
The SQL Server 2014 and SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Excel rendering extension renders a report to the native format of Microsoft Excel 2007-2010 with .xlsx as file extension. Only the Excel rendering extension is available by default.
You must update the Reporting Services configuration files to make the Excel 2003 rendering extension available.
For example, changing the value of Visible to
true in the following line in the RSReportServer.config:
<Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering"
Visible="true"/>

Hyperlinks in RTF and Excel reports using CF Report Builder

Has anyone gotten external links to work in RTF and Excel CF
Report Builder reports? The PDF report type works as advertised in
the help, but these other two have me stumped.

Could you please tell us whether you fllowed any special procedures
or made some specific settings to launch RTF reports ?Can't help much, I'm afraid. The report and web server settings were
all made before I got here, and are not visible to me.
We can get RTF from report builder/generate-to-file and when running
reports on the web. Our servers are all Sun/Solaris boxes, although
we display on DOS boxes. Excel we get from a program, not from the
report server.
Report builder 6.0.8.10.1, database claims to be 8.1.7.0.0.
Sorry I can't help much more than saying "yes, it can be done".

Report Builder: output to Excel removes leading zeros

I'm trying to use the Report Builder to output a numeric
field to EXCEL , but on numbers that start with zero EXCEL removes
the leading zero's. ex. 00123 becomes 123.
Is there something that I can put in the expression builder
on the field to overcome this.
I've tried concatonating a single quote on the front of the
field but the single quote shows up on the output. I've tried this
on both the SQL and on the expression builder.
I've read on some of the posts where people have tried using
'mso-number-format:"\@'" within a TD tag but I can't seem to get
the syntax right inside the Expression Builder.
Has anybody got any suggestions?

Excel will remove leading zeros in a numeric field because it is treating the column as numeric. Putting a ' in front of the number forces Excel to treat the column as text.

Web Layout different in Reports Builder to running in URL

When I go to Run Web Layout for a report in the Oracle Reports Builder, the columns are formatted differently to when I run the report from a browser (ie. font is smaller and the columns seem to wrap when they seem to fit nicely when running Web Layout in the Reports Builder). In fact, it looks identical to what is shown in the 'paper layout' in the report editor.
I have used 'desformat=htmlcss', so why does it look different? Can I make the browser version look like what is shown when running Web Layout in the Reports Builder? If so, how?
Thanks
Alison

I am too facing the same problem for quite a long time and left it unresolved. So what i am doing for now is changing the font size and adjusting the paper layout manually.

How to dislay other language font in Report Builder paper layout?

How to I display other language font (e.g. chinese) in Report Builder paper layout?
I have no problem displaying Chinese characters in web layout.

If your NLS_LANG is properly set to chinese character set and if you are choosing the right chinese fonts, in Reports builder, your report paper layout should display chinese characters properly.
If you are generating to PDF, then you might want to use PDF subsetting to display the chinese characters properly.
See the documentation on how to use PDF subsetting.
