Hi,
You want this report to run in oracle application. Then you have to develop a report using oracle reports and register the report. While defining a concurrent program you have option to select the output format, select pdf format there.
When user requests using submit request form they can see the output in PDF format.

How can i convert oracle report in excel format using 8i

hi,
I want to convert oracle report in excel format using 6i reports. please give the solution with emp table.
millons of thanks in advance.

You'll have to use the destype DELIMITEDDATA to render your Report in CSV format. Then set the mime type to Excel. I don't know the exact syntax, so please do a search in metalink for "reports excel" for examples and more info.

Hi,
Ordering the column first takes place from the Data Model Itself.
Please Check your column ordering in the report data model. If it is not ordered in a right way then Rearrange it.
Remove your order by in query...
If any issues... let me know

Call Oracle Reports from Forms ver 9i or 10g

Hi,
Can somebody guide me, how to call Oracle Reports from the Oracle form 9i,
Run_product is no more available into 9i & 10g, Run_report_object is not working with out put type "Screen" or "preview".
What is the best way to call the reports from the form ??? pls help...
Thanks in avdance.
Jitesh ([email protected])

You can use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT with CACHE type, and WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to view the document on the screen.
In the Forms help you should find examples.
If you have access to Metalink, have a look at Note:207396.1.

Plz help in calling of reports from Form in browser

Hi!
I am using 9iAS(1.0.2.2.1) + 8.1.7 database on the same machine with Win NT4.When i invoke report from my system's main form(oracle form6i) using parameter list as Run_Product(reports,'..\iReports\glrxx13.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null); against a when-button-pressed trigger error raised
"Error:0110 Unable to open the report '..\iReports\glrxx13.rep"
"Error:...Error while opening or saving a ducument '..\iReports\glrxx13.rep".
My Reports are in folder "iReports" which i put in the 9iAS's report60 folder & also in the report60 folder too. I dont know more about virtual dirves mapping & environment variables setting i.e what & where these should be put.
Kindly help!
Many thanks

hello,
their are only two ways of passing the report-name: only the name or the complete path (where path is the PHYSICAL path of the file).
the easiest way is, if you add all directories where you have RDFs in that you want to run, to the REPORTS60_PATH of your server environment. then you can simply use REPx.RDF and it will be run as long as it is somewhere along the reports path.

Migration steps in oracle reports and forms

Hi,
I want to migrate oracle reports and oracle forms from its curent versions to 10G.
current versions:
Oracle Report : 2.5
Oracle Forms : 4.5
any help would be appreciated.....
Thanks,
Ganesh

Hi,
there is the forms upgrade center on OTN. There is a lot of information about upgrading of forms. ou can find it here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html.
The way is (to my knowledge), go from 4.5 to 6i and then to 10g.
On the page you also find a link for Oracle Reports.
If you have more questions, I think you should ask your questions in the Forms Forum: Forms or in the Reports Forum: Reports There are the experts on the topic.

How to work Oracle report in Forms

Hi Everyone.
I am new to Oracle Forms and reports.
I just created i Oracle report based on emp table and saved as stud_rept.rdf and imported in forms under reports object namely 'REPORT2' in object Navigator and changed their properties as
file name: G:\Projects\emp_report.rdf
Execution mode : runtime
communication mode: synchronous
datasourceblock : null
report destination type:screen
then i created one datablock based on emp table, created one button then written a trigger code under when_button_pressed as
DECLARE
     repid REPORT_OBJECT;
     v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
     rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
     repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT2');
     v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
END;
when i click the button in browser i'm getting error as
frm-41211 integration error: SSL failure running another product

Help needed in Oracle Reports

I am creating an Oracle Report.Now there is one Repeatating Frame in the Report.
This Frame`s header title is also appearing on last page when there is no record for it ...
Please help how to Stop this to display at last page when their is no record in it.....

Hi,
First of all you are in the wrong forum. The report forum is
Reports
and for you problem it heppens because sometimes the detail records covers the complete page and for total or summary fields header/group frame goes to the next page. For this thing you can do one thing. There is Page Protect property in the header frame keep it YES and then try.

Create an Oracle Reports Parameter form application in HTMLDB

I am investigating whether I can satisfy following requirement using HTMLDB and if yes, then what are the steps to be followed.
The idea is simple. Store Oracle Reports name, parameter names, default values etc. in a table and write an application which will display a list of reports on your left, on clicking a report, use the param names stored in the table to display a form to accept values for each parameter and the submit button calls a URL pointing to the Oracle Reports Server.
This can be done easily using Oracle Forms but I am investigating if this can be done using HTMLDB since it's 100% thin client.
Any comments, hints etc. appreciated.
Thanks,
Manish

Thanks.
I had already seen the how-to article but my requirement was a little different since each Param Name, Value will be stored in seperate record. If a report has 4 parameters, then the table will have 4 records, one for each parameter. Here's a sample table structure that I am using.
rep_name varchar2(100)
,param_name varchar2(100)
,sort_order integer
,param_len varchar2(100)
,param_data_type varchar2(100)
,param_required varchar2(1) default 'N'
,param_description varchar2(100)
,default_value varchar2(1000)
,lov_sql varchar2(1000)
I was in fact able to achieve what I want by using a Tabular Form with the parameter description display only and default value updateable and it's submit button can be redirected to the reports URL with form fields substitution. I will use cgicmd.dat to map username/password so that it's not visible in the url.
My additional questions:
1. As per the table structure above, I have a lov_sql text field. Is it possible to create an LOV on the tabular form using this lov_sql?
2. Above the tabular form, I want to display a drop-down-list with a list of reports. When a user selects a list-item, I want to refresh the page with it's tabular form showing parameters for that report. Kind of parameterizing the Form display. Is this possible? If not what are the alternatives?
Thanks,

Oracle Reports Parameter Form trouble on SuSE Linux

I have the report compiled on AIX 5.2, everything's fine, the same source file I compiled on SuSE Linux 8.0, the format of parameter form is totally screwed up. I compared the HTML source of those 2 parameter forms, and found the code generated by Oracle Reports.
on AIX 5.2:

<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=379>
<tr><td width=8><td width=9><td width=59><td width=9><td width=33><td width=22><td width=17><td width=119><td width=33><td width=45><td width=21><td width=1><td width=3>
<tr><td colspan=13 height=19>....
on Linux:

<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=4>
<tr><td width=1><td width=1><td width=1><td width=1>
<tr><td colspan=4 height=0>...
As you can see the setting width=4 in the table tag on Linux squeeze up the table a lot.
Where do I configure to prevent this happened?
thanks,
Jess
