HELP: Column not shown in Interactive Report

I have an Interactive Report setup, I have added a new column to the report.
But the new column doesn't show by default, for anyone to view this new column they need to use the GUI click the gear... and then click columns and add the column to the view.
I noticed that "default report settings" under "interactive report attributes" the new column isnt listed in "Selected Columns section"
is that the problem? how do I update this list without rebuilding the report from scratch.
Thanks Jade

sure, so there actuall instructions in the item half way down the page of the item configuration.
anyways so what you do it log into the application as the devloper login, so if you have a custon autorisation scheme you will need to set it back to apex, then when your logged in to you app... goto the page with the report, click the cog icon and there is a selext/adjust columns option... when you have finished click cog and save report... you will have an option to save as default... when you save the report your done, and all users will see you changed, remeber to change autorisation back to you custom one if you changed it.
sorry im on my phone so spelling is prob bad and I dont have apex handy so I have to do it from memory. :)
thanks jade, hope this helps... should work mint... ask again if you have problem's and I will update this when I have a pc and apex around.

Newly added column not displayed in Interactive report

Hello,
I have a tableA with 3 columns.In the application i am displaying as Form with Report region as Interactive report(Oracle 10g Application Express 3.2).
I added one column to tableA.Now when i am refreshing the report by adding that column in the select query,the new added column is not displayed in the application.
How can i do this so that the added column can be displayed.I dont want to delete the whole thing and redo it again.
Thanks
Siya

Hi Siya,
The Interactive Report will not show you the newly added columns by default. You have to select those columns from the actions menu and when all the required fields are displayed then save it as the default report.
Then you will be able to see all the columns.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks,

Changed column order not applied to interactive report

Hi,
I've changed column order for interactive report.
But it is not applied.
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks,
Guy

Hi Guy
It depends on where you have changed the column order. If you change the column order using the 'Select Columns' function when you click on the 'Wheel of Magic', then it should work.
If you are changing the column order from the Interactive Reports Attributes page then this will only affect the column order for non displayed items and the single row view.
I hope that helps

Substitution string not working in interactive report

Hi all,
I am using a substitution string in the no data found message of the interactive report. But instead of the actual message, &my_message. is displayed when there is no data found. I noticed that this problem is also occuring when a substitution string is used in the column headers of the interactive report. In the non-interactive report it is working as it should. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?
Hope anybody can help me. Also when you have a workaround for my problem.
Many thanks in advance!

Default Style Column Breaking in an Interactive report

In a normal SQL report there are two types of column break formatting:
1) Default Breaking Format e.g.
aaa 123
456
bbb 789
123
2) Repeat Headings e.g.
aaa
123
456
bbb
789
123
Interactive reports seem to only implement Repeat Headings . Is it possible to break columns in an IR report using "Default Breaking Format"? If so how?
thanks

Oracle Application Express (APEX)
As interactive reports lack the HTML Expression feature of standard reports, the simple way to do this unfortunately requires violating the separation of concerns and generating structural (a <tt>span</tt> element) and presentational (an in-line style sheet) aspects in the query:
select

           else
             '<span>' || to_char(calling_date) || '</span>'
         end calling_date
⋮For number/date columns to be properly sortable, the leading edge of the column must be an HTML comment that provides the required sort order using character semantics, as shown here.
The Display As column attribute for such columns must be set to Standard Report Column.
This method has side effects: some IR filters won't work; aggregate calculations can't be applied to the column; and report exports contain the HTML rather than the expected value.
Other approaches involve using Dynamic Actions/jQuery/JavaScript, or using the built-in highlight as suggested above, then saving the highlighted report as the default.

I simply want to change the color of the text depending on whether a column has a value (eg. Error or Problem).

Lowercase first letter in column name of non-interactive report..Again

A couple of days ago a posted a question on how to make the column name in a non-interactive report
come out as lowercase. (original post: Lowercase first letter in column name of non-interactive report
I am using Theme13, which is probably the only theme that forces the first letter
of a column name in a report to uppercase.
Anyway, I received several responses including the answer which I applied to my page.
Then I went back to make the column sortable and that negates the CSS override and
the first letter in the column name is back to uppercase...arrrggghhh!
Are there any further suggestions on how to force this to lowercase with theme 13 and a sortable column?
Thanks
Donna

Hi,
Try style to page HTML header
th.t13ReportHeader,th.t13ReportHeader a:link,th.t13ReportHeader a:visited{
text-transform:none!important;

POP LOV in classic Report not in a interactive Report

My oracle version Oracle Express Aplication 11g
Dear Forum
We need a CLASSIC report where i can define what information my report will show.
For example:
My Report contain
ID NAME DATE
In Drag and Drop layout I create two data pickers cause I need to choose information between Date_picker_1 and Datepicker_2. both of them correspond to DATE
In my region source in classic report I write something like this:
Select id, name where DATE between :Date_picker_1 and :Datepicker_2 then Ichoose the months but nothing happen.
I know that in the report interactive you can do that, but my boss doesnt' like interactive report (I dont know why) so my problem is in the Classic report.

Also the subject of this thread—POP LOV in classic Report not in a interactive Report—doesn't appear to be relevant the question asked. There's no mention of a Pop-up LOV here?
My oracle version Oracle Express Aplication 11gAlways state full version numbers, and include
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)

In my region source in classic report I write something like this:
Select id, name where DATE between :Date_picker_1 and :Datepicker_2then Ichoose the months but nothing happen.Always post code wrapped in <tt>\...\</tt> tags. And always post the actual code or a realistic reduced test case: that query is not valid SQL.
I know that in the report interactive you can do that, but my boss doesnt' like interactive report (I dont know why) so my problem is in the Classic report.Nothing to do with the report type. It's because all APEX items are actually VARCHAR2s. For proper comparison semantics with NUMBERs or DATEs in SQL explicit conversion is required:
select id, name
from foo
where bar between to_date(:date_picker_1, 'DD/MM/YYYY') and to_date(:date_picker_1, 'DD/MM/YYYY')Where 'DD/MM/YYYY' is the format mask used in the datepicker items.

Regular Expression functions not supported in Interactive report filters ??

I'm using APEX 4.0.2 and I'm trying to create a row filter in an interactive report which uses regexp_instr and regexp_replace functions and I'm getting the message:
Invalid filter expression. regexp_instr
The code runs fine in SQL Workshop
select cytogenetics from z_patient
where regexp_instr(regexp_replace(cytogenetics,'(\,+|\"+|\s)',''),'(^46XX$|^46XY$|^46XX\[..\]$|^46XY\[..\]$)')=1
CYTOGENETICS
"46,XX [20]"
"46,XY[20]"
"46,XX"
"46,XY[20]"
"46,XY[30]"
"46,XY[26]"
"46,XY [33]"
"46,XX[32]
etc...
my filter is just the where clause above i.e.
regexp_instr(regexp_replace(cytogenetics,'(\,+|\"+|\s)',''),'(^46XX$|^46XY$|^46XX\[..\]$|^46XY\[..\]$)')=1
*Are regular expression functions just not supported in interactive report filters?*
thanks in advance
Paul P

Hi Paul,
regular expression functions are supported in interactive report filters, but it looks like that REGEXP_INSTR hasn't been added as valid command. Only REGEXP_SUBSTR and REGEXP_REPLACE are valid commands for computation expressions and REGEXP_SUBSTR, REGEXP_REPLACE and REGEXP_LIKE for row level filters.
I have filed bug# 12926266 to fix this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Bug in details view: index columns not shown correctly, stops at 4th column

I do have two indices on a table which are shown in the details view. In the column 'columns' only the first 4 columns are shown that belong to the index.
If I choose an index in another detail view, all columns are shown correctly.
Where to report this bug?

I just realized this was an issue today.
Once one knows that only 4 columns are shown in the summary and that you have to click on the index name for any index that shows 4 columns to see if there are more, well that extra click is pretty simple and not a big deal.
The problem is BEFORE one knows of this. For weeks, when reviewing some indexes created by others, I was under the wrong impression about some indexes because I thought they only had the 4 columns shown. I didn't know at that time that I had to select the index and look at the detail section.
It wasn't until I just happened to click on one of them and saw more columns listed that I realized there was a bug. And yes, as far as I'm concerned, this is a bug not a feature.
At an absolute minimum, there should be something done so users know they have to look at the details. Perhaps the heading could be changed to "Columns (up to 4)" or the ellipsis or (more) could be added as someone else suggested. Even just an additional comma would help. I can't imagine why it was written to stop at 4 anyway - why does that make any sense?
This is the first time I've come to this forum so I'm not sure how to request an enhancement. I'll read a few other threads and see if I can tell.

Order by not working on Interactive Report

I have created an Interactive Report. My select statement contains an ORDER BY. When the report displays it is not in the correct order. How can I control the display order of an Interactive Report?

hi Alfred,
Where can I define the sorting order ? I would like the first call of the report already have a sort.
I know the user can customize the sorting in the report but not at the first call!
I hope it is understandable ;-)i think when the page upload u want to sort the report.
then
in report attributes>column attributes >edit the each column>column definition>remove the tick on sort all >apply changes and give order by i n your query

After commenting set-PF ststus '100' event at line selection is working.
Ii want at to use at-user command and at line-selection both to work with set pf-status.
Please help me out.

Hi,
You can use these events together but in case while
creating your GUI status for your program you have
to give Function Code 'PICK' with F2 short cut key
because for at line selectino double click 'PICK' function

Help on print button for interactive report

Hi,
I have created an interactive report and have also added a print button on the button of the report (unfortunately forgot how I did it). Say my column on the reports was Col_No, Col_First_name, Col_Last_name and a print button when I pressed a would get to choose open or save a pdf file, if I opened or saved it, I would had the same info on my pdf report as above.
Since I have changed the column order meaning I have Col_No, Col_Last_name, Col_Start_Date, Col_First_name and that is working fine but when I click on the print button I will get the pervious columns.
I noticed I have created a branches to print the report, basically after processing, when button was pressed an action with f?p=&APP_ID.:0:&SESSION.:PRINT_REPORT=6259824360775969936:&DEBUG.::: is present.
I need help to fix this and I do very much appreciate any help or suggestions

'gReport' is null or not an object - Interactive Report

I'm getting a "'gReport' is null or not an object" error when attempting to use the Search bar in an Interactive Report. Based on googling and searching this forum, it seems likely that the Javascript on the page is interferring w/ the Interactive report somehow. I don't know enough about APEX and Javascript (I snagged the code from another application, and made some changes) to debug it, so I was hoping you guys could help.
Here's the Javascript on my page:
