Passing parameter to report from form using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT method

Will you please let me know how to do this. I tried using run_product but it is giving error as too many declarations. So I decided to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, but no help is provided how to pass paramters to this routine from FORMS to REPORTS.

If you just want to change the heading of a column dynamically, you can go with any of the two options. For both the options, you need to remove the static text and replace it with any dummy field (ensure the reference of field w.r. to repeating frame)
1. Use the Format Trigger and change the heading to either "school" or "college" based on your field value.
Ex.
If :<field_name> = 'S'
then :dummy_field := 'School'
Else
:dummy_field := 'College'
End If;
Return (true)
2. Another option is similar to this and uses a CF.
(I would prefer CF).
Warm Regards,
Raja.

Calling a report from form using web.show_document

Hi,
Used the method as below, But , error reprot not found,
Could anybody tell me how to get the server name from ny local machine as in the example servername ' Repsrv '
/* WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED */
DECLARE
vc_url varchar2(100);
BEGIN
vc_url:=‘http://<hostname><port>/reports/rwservlet?server='
||
‘Repsrv&report=reptest.rdf&desformat=htmlcss&destype=cache ’
||
'&userid=user/pw@database&p_deptno='||:dept.deptno||'&paramform
=no’;
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(vc_url,’_blank’);
END;
Thanks

If you are attempting to print a report from a when-button-pressed trigger from within a form, you do not have to explicitly specify the server (hostname) nor the port. You can just use what I've found referred to as a virtual path to the server as I have done here:
parm_string := '/reports/rwservlet?config=my_config&report=report_name'
 ||'&desformat=pdf&destype=cache'
 ||'&paramform=no&printjob=no'
 ||'&p_my_user_param1='||v_my_param1
 ||'&p_my_user_param2='||v_my_param2;
web.show_document(parm_string,'_blank');
You can specify a userid/password@connectstring within a named congifuration section of your formsweb.cfg file if necessary, e.g. my_config.
Hope this helps.

Unable to run reports from forms using run_report_object

Hi All,
I am unable to run a report(9i) from forms(9i) in client side.
I used the following code
Declare
     repid REPORT_OBJECT;
     v_rep varchar2(100);
     rep_status varchar2(20);
Begin
     repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('report4');
     v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
End;
I get the following error
FRM-41219 : Cannot find report:invalid ID.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Sanjay Hi
You have to create a report object within the form.
If you look at the Object NAvigator in the Form Builder right below Record Group
tou would see an option for Report. Create a new report object.
Set the following properties for that object
Filename - This should be the name of your RDF file you created from Report Builder along with the full path.
Set the Execution Mode, Communication Mode and Report Destination Type as per your requirements.
In the parameter for find_report_object() pass the name of the report object you created.
eg.
if the name of the report object you created is Report2 then
your call should be rep_id := find_report_object('Report2') .
You are calling the report object which has been created in your form builder and through that call you are running the report file specified in the Filename property of that report object.

     END IF;
END;
END;
The 'rep_lab02' is the name of the report that you give in the node reports
p_fec_uno and p_fec_dos they are the parameters in the report
repserver is the name of server created with rwserver

Calling Report From Form To Many Destinations

Hi
I am calling reports from forms using SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY and then run_report_object.
I dont know the destination until runtime of the report which is ok as I can pass this in via my procedure, but if that destination is many ie mail and file what is the best way to distribute the report?
I could call my procedure for each destination but that seems a bit unefficient since the report would be created many times, is there another way?

what about adding a drop-down-list near your report-button where you can choose the destination?
when you click the report-button you simply read the value selected in the drop-down-list and send it to your reports-server too.

REP 110 & REP 0110 .calling reports from Form 10g(10.1.2.0.2)

Hi All,
We are migrating form from Oracle form 6i to Oracle 10g(10.1.2.0.2). I am calling reports from forms
using Web.Show_Docment(). When we run reports in report builder 10g it works fine.
But when we try to run reports from Forms 10g it throws error which is given below.
We want to run reports from UNIX. After using this url to submit report we get error REP 110 and REP 0110
URL
http://GEM:7777/reports/rwservlet?server=rep_server&report=/u01/forms/QA_Forms10g/GEMREP.rdf+DESTYPE=CACHE+DESFORMAT=HTML+p_user_id=XYZ+p_client=2

I will really appreciate your help.

Hello,
You are mixing 2 separators in the URL : & and +
Use only one separator in the URL :
Example :
http://GEM:7777/reports/rwservlet?server=rep_server+report=/u01/forms/QA_Forms10g/GEMREP.rdf+DESTYPE=CACHE+DESFORMAT=HTML+p_user_id=XYZ+p_client=2

but i hav report in e:\ then why its getting?

Hi,
I suggest you not to use the "E:\" directory letter, but the REPORTS_PATH instead.

from the Online Help


On Windows, edit environment variables through the Registry Editor (Start > Run > Regedit).


On UNIX, edit environment variables by revising and running the shell script that defines the initial default values (reports.sh). If you do this, be sure to keep a backup of the original, unaltered reports.sh file.

How to call jsp web report from forms 9i

Dear fellows,
How can i call a jsp report from forms 9i.
Thanx
Mochoo

Use web.show_document instead of Run_Report_Object. If the jsp contains a paper layout you can still use Run_Report_Object, but you have to specify the filename extension .jsp along with the filename.

CALLING A REPORT FROM FORMS (PROBLEM)

MY PROBLEM IS THE NEXT:
I CREATED A MASTER-DETAIL REPORT CALLING 'ASUNTOS'WITH THE NEXT QUERY:
SELECT ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_P,ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_M,ABOGADOS.NOMBRES,
ASUNTOS.EXP_INT,ASUNTOS.MATERIA,ASUNTOS.GERENCIA,
ASUNTOS.EMPRESA,ASUNTOS.RECLAMA,ASUNTOS.PESOS,
ASUNTOS.DOLARES
FROM ABOGADOS,ASUNTOS
WHERE ABOGADOS.FICHA = ASUNTOS.F_ABOG
AND ASUNTOS.F_ABOG = :ABOGADO ;
-- ABOGADO = PARAMETER.
THIS REPORT WORKS FINE THE PROBLEM IS WHEN I TRY CALL THIS REPORT FROM FORM I'VE USE A BUTTON(WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED) WITH THE NEXT CODE:
DECLARE
LISTA PARAMLIST := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
BEGIN
IF ID_NULL(LISTA) THEN
LISTA := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'PRINTER');

-- ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'YES');
END IF;
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'ASUNTOS',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,LISTA,NULL);
END;
BUT THE REPORT NOTHING DISPLAY.
THERE ARE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CODE IN THE BUTTON

Roberto,
Does your report work when it is not called from Forms?
try the following:
[TOOLS_HOME]\BIN\RWRUN60 module=ASUNTOS destype=screen userid=<username>/<password>@<tns> ABOGADO=<some_valid_code>
where TOOLS_HOME is the directory where Reports is installed.
I can see nothing wrong with your code.
Maybe some error in the query?
Also, I would check for the existence of multiple ASUNTOS report definitions. Maybe Forms is calling an older one.
Hope this helps,
Pedro das Neves

How do you call a report from forms and get it to display the parameter form. Where you can then call the report using this parameter form. I have been using paramform=yes. but it simply runs the form.
