PDF Reports in client machines

Dear all,
What are all the chances that a PDF report is not getting opened at the client machine.. all the user can able to print the same in their pc's .. in particular 2 clilent machines no PDF reports are opening..
Thanks
Yusuf

When View output is clicked, it opens the windows and closes immediatelyMost probably it is a pop-up blocker issue. Please verify that it is turned off (IE, MSN, Yahoo, Google, AOL, ..etc), and check then.
To verify, change the report type to PostScript, and check if you have the same issue with GhostViewer.

Running Reports from Client Machines in which the reports are residing on t

Hi Folks,
I'm using Developer 6i with Oracle 9i. I can run forms from the clients so that the FMX file is residing on a shared drive on the server, but when I try to run reports which also reside on the shared drive of server, I get error that unable to find the report. Do I need to install report server on the client machine/server or am I missing some basic step here?
TIA
Hassan

Hi,
There's a whitepaper on the topic of Forms/Reports integration for the web called "Oracle9iAS Forms Services and Reports Services Integration". This should give you the information you are seeking.

Urgent - Want a excel output from reports

I am giving DESTYPE = FILE
DESNAME
DESFORMAT = DELIMITED
I have break groups in the report . But the excel output comes out very ugly. Like it repeats the whole info and then it put heading horizontally.
here is the sample of the ugly file
Parent Rollup Id (TIER4) Parent name Revenue ID Name Source Type RevComp ID Rev Comp Name S2111 LINK PERIPHERAL PROCESSOR S2-LPP LINK PERIPHERAL PROCESSOR DMS250 FW
Parent Rollup Id (TIER4) Parent name Revenue ID Name Source Type RevComp ID Rev Comp Name S2111 LINK PERIPHERAL PROCESSOR S2-LPP LINK PERIPHERAL PROCESSOR DMS250 FW
well I have copied only two lines. BUt see how the whole info is being reporated. and the column heading are now row heading
any clue to port it into excel so that it looks like the the report builder output.

Hi,
Change the Desforamt as Delimited and give the File name as file.xls and run the report
you will get the Excel Output but the total will be pronted On RHS for every row.Hope this would help you to print the report in Excel File.
Thanks,
Vikki

Issue in crystal reports in client machine

my project is running fine on development machine where i have installed visual studio 2013 and i later installed CRforVS_13_0_10 to add crystal reports feature ... i developed an application and used sql server for database ...
when i run this software on client pc , my project is working fine except crystal report , when i want to view crystal report it gets busy in loading crystal report later it gives message
"Failed to open the conenction , Details : [Database vendor code: 17] temp_ ....."
on client machine i have installed CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_9

i think i caught my problem but could not able to solve yet , my issue is that in development pc i set database of crystal report by selecting proper database linked to sqlserver ...
later when i run my project in some other pc (i change pc name in my app.config file),
and then the project runs but not crystal reports
crystal report does not find database as its pc name is different , whereas pc name which is hard coded is the name of development pc ...
how to change this pc name ????

Saving PDF report on Client machine

Dear All,
I have one form where the user can select the path he want to save PDF report (generated by Report Bulder) to (I am using Webutil). I set that path as DESFORMAT before calling the repot but when the report is run, it is saved on server (Application server) if the same path exists on server (e.g; c:\temp), otherwise it gives error.
How i can do this?
Regards

Hello,
I would guess that all the pdf files you are generating in AS in c:\temp directory. Otherwise if files are in c:\temp\data then you will have to change in the webutil.cfg file. So, according to your webutil.cfg file the function call can be like this..
lResult := WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT_WITH_PROGRESS
               ('C:\TEMP\ABC.TXT',
                'C:\TEMP\ABC.TXT',
                'TITLE',
                'PLEASE WAIT...');Or otherwise if the files are in C:\TEMP\DATA then change the config setting to the below and try the function as below...
transfer.database.enabled=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.enabled=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.workAreaRoot=
transfer.appsrv.accessControl=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.read.1=c:\temp\data
transfer.appsrv.write.1=c:\temp\dataAnd function like this...
lResult := WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT_WITH_PROGRESS
               ('C:\TEMP\data'ABC.TXT',
                'C:\TEMP\ABC.TXT',
                'TITLE',
                'PLEASE WAIT...');Make sure that file is readable on the AS and the directory C:\TEMP is available on the client side.
Using example you can find in webutil demo. Check the below link.

Excel output from reports

Have used the 'mimetype code to output to excel in the browser using pl/sql
in the before parameter trigger, this trigger is still supposed to fire
but when no parameter form used the output defaults to html and not the required Excel
Does anyone know a way around this?

Hi,
Have you looked at the CGIcmd.dat? you have to make sure that desformat is not being set there. otherwise, whatever you put in your code will be overwritten.

Creating excel file on client machine using oracle pl/sql code

Hi All,
I have a situation where in i need to create an excel output file in my client machine, but using UTL_FILE i understood that i need to create the directory on server and i need to read and write on server itself.
Is there any other way where we can create a excel file other than oracle server, bcos this is used only once and there is no scheduler to execute on server.
Please do the needful.
Thanks,
Santhosh.S

The server should create the data set required by the client - do all the (intense) server processing that servers do well. This data set is then send to the client. The client is responsible for rendering that data set.. or saving it to the client machine storage if needed.
Within PL/SQL that is quite easy to do using the most common/standard client-server in use today - web based client-server.
The client is a web browser. It makes a call to the web server, that is serviced by a PL/SQL database procedure - a so-called web enabled procedure. It processes the request from the web browser, and returns a dynamic response. This response can range from HTML and XML, to video and image streams - and also CSV (Character Separated Values) data.
By default, most web browsers will use the local client spreadsheet application (like MS Excel) to open the CSV response received. Many web browsers will also provide an alternate option of saving that response as a CSV file (that can then be opened later using MS Excel).
Straight forward and basic client-server - and easily done using PL/SQL. Even easier done using (freeware) Oracle APEX (Application Express). APEX is a PL/SQL software suite that provides a web development system (only web browser required for development) and a run-time system to run the web application you have created.
