How to create a link to a unix document in interactive report??

on the same UNIX server where APEX 4.2 is installed I have a directory with pdf documents - /d01/apex/docs/mydoc.pdf for example.
How can I create a link in APEX interactive report to point to the document and allow users to view or download on their PC's?
Thanks.

Hello,
In your report source, you should use something similar to:
Select empno , ....., '<a href= "#IMAGE_PREFIX# ........" >' Download from server '</a>' as "Download" from empWhere #IMAGE_PREFIX# stands for Static resources "i" in your web server. it should be in your case (for Windows):
C:\apex\imagesYou may need to use CASE Clause for multiple Docs
Please see this example:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=63066
worksapce: somefeto
user: test
pwd: test

Fateh

How to create a linked data source with document libraries based on the same template?

I use SharePoint Foundation 2013, SP Designer and Visual Studio 2013 to my needs. But there are several things which i don't get.
I have a number of libraries which use the same template. I want to create a linked data source, that would contain them all, and if I add a library based on this template, the library would be added to the data sorce. Is it possible?
I tried creating linked data souces, but the view that it brings by default is limited(no sorting, etc.). How can it be modified?

I am planning to do my project on Linux with J2EE,Oracle technologies.You don't need to set up a DSN. Just use a JDBC connect string such as jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:xe

How to create a link in a keynote document towards an iCloud keynote document

Hello everyone,
I want to create a keynote presentation (located in iCloud) and make a link to another Keynote presentation, also located in iCloud.
Apparently, this is not possible, since when I create a link, the only possibility is to link to another file located on my physical drive.
If anyone has any ideas how to bypass this...
Thanks in advance.

Note that there's currently a bug in the way annotations work on an OCG. The link will disappear but the bounding box of the link will remain an active hotspot. In your case however the bug may be useful, as if two link objects partly overlap on the page and one isn't on an OCG, turning off the OCG does indeed disable the hotspot.
Follow this process to see what it can (and cannot) do:
From the Tools > Print Production Panel, open Preflight
Select 'single fixups' - the third icon
Click the "Layers" section just so things will go in a logical place
Click "options" then "Create new Preflight Fixup"
Name it "Put all links on the Links layer"
Click the "Layers category" and scroll in the right-side list to choose "Put objects on layer"
In the "Objects identified by a check" menu, choose "Annotation is of type Link"
In the Layer name field, enter "Links"
Click OK to save your new check.
Assuming you have a document open, select your new Fixup and press the Fix button.
You'll be asked to save the file with a new name, then you'll get a message about the layers being modified and instructing you to close and re-open the file (that's a limitation in Preflight, until you do the new layer won't show up).
To understand how the overlapping OCG-nonOCG bug works, now you have a link on the Links layer, create another one using the normal tool (which will not be on the layer). Half-overlap them and see what happens when you turn the layer off and on.
The simplest way to test is to create a blank document and add a "go to a web page" link with a visible rectangle - then when you migrate it onto a layer, you can probe for the hotspot by hovering your mouse and looking for the URI tooltip.

How to create more than one default view on an interactive report

Hi Guys
This links to a previous thread of mine, but is a new specific question.
When you create an interactive report, you can select loads of columns, and then define one default report, containing only certain columns and filters etc.. The user can then continue and create their own saved reports, but these are only available for the specific user.
I would like to be able to create multiple of these "default" reports, that are available to all users, but run of one interactive report dataset.
I hope this is clear.
Thanks
Marissa

Limitation of interactive report...only one per page.
So you need to create multiple pages and in each page you can have one report. Depending on the condition /criteria you can show the
page and for the end user your appln is dynamic. Make sure to create all pages of same/similar look.

How to Create a Link to a Discoverer Workbook in Apps11i?-[solved]

I tried to create a link to a disco workbook in apps 11i using metalink document 278095.1. It seems to be working ok for discoverer which is installed on the same machine as the apps11i is on(because when I clicked on the link which I have created in apps11i, I see a default disco4i welcome page which got installed out of the box with apps11i). But we are using discoverer version 10g which is on a different server. Does anyone has ideas on how to create a link for a disco workbook which is on a different server other than apps11i.
Discoverer version is 10g
Apps version is 11.5.10.2
Thanks in advance

hi Rod,
I did as you said and it seems to be connecting to the right server. But I have one more problem. In metalink document it says I have to enter the following in the Parameters text field of Function form in apps:
workbook=<(workbook identifier from step2) &PARAMETERS=param_parameter name One~Parameter One Value*param_parameter name Two~Parameter Two Value*
But I dont understand what should I have in place of param_parameter name One~Parameter One Value. Is it the name of the parameter given in discoverer, if so can you give me an example of how to write it. Because when I typed the name of the parameter like &PARAMETERS=Client Id, where client Id is the name of the parameter, it is giving me the following error
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
Thanks for your help

How To: Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email)

I apologize if this is too basic of a question but I can't find any results after looking for several hours.
I would like to generate a URL in an email that points to the portal and a specific portlet in the portal. The portlet has limited access rights so the URL should cause the portal to go through the login page and then redirect to the portlet. Can anyone point me to the documentation that describes this or give me an example?
Thanks in advance!
Mike

Using the PTARGS might also solve another difficulty I've encountered passing (dynamic) querystring parms to portlets through the gateway. Your example seems to work great for portlets, but now trying to access a Community page containing a portlet to retain branding elements.
For portal pages, should the ObjectID be the pageID (i.e PageID=0 for the default page) or is the ObjectID for a community page some other value (where in PlumDB is this stored) ? I changed the ClassIDView to 514 which should indicate a Community Page but it's still not loading my page. Adding to my confusion, the PTCOMMPAGES table stores the PageID as a negative value.
Here's my example:
http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_0_201_0_514/http%3B/portletserver/ApplicationName/default.aspx?querystring=value
Any thoughts?
re: How To: Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email) Posted by Mike Beniston 5/5/05 9:45:40 AM It turned out that I was pretty close.
If anyone else is interested, here is one way that works.
The PTARGS are _0_userid(leave at 0)_objectid(of portlet)_communityID(if any)_0_ClassIDView(43 = view for portlet)
"http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_348_208_0_43/http://portletserver/ApplicationName/pagename?querystring arguments.

How to create a linked server to SQL in Oracle?

I am able to create a linked server to Oracle in SQL.. But I do not know the steps to create a linked server too SQL in Oracle.
How to create a linked server to SQL in Oracle? After creating the linked server to SQL, I would like to create triggers in Oracle DB to insert records into SQL DB.

There are 2 products in Oracle you can use to link to a MS SQl Server. The first one is for free and it is called Database Gateway for ODBC. With a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver you can connect to any foreign database. The second gateway is our commercial gateway and it is called Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server. It is designed for MS SQl Server connections and more powerful then Dg4ODBC. It know how to map a lot of Oracle functions to SQL Server equivalents and you can also use it to directly call SQL Server procedures or functions. This dedicated SQL server gateway is also able to participate in distributed transactions.
But again, this is a commercial gateway and you have to purchase a license for that second gateway, the Database Gateway for MS SQl Server.

Hi, I have Adobe Acrobat Professional. I need to know how to create multi-links on 300 page docs

I need to know how to create multi-links on a 300 page document, showing "return to main Menu". Ideally placed on the bottom right of each page. I have adobe acrobat Professional.

Import a picture to be a button, place it, activate HYPERLINK tool, draw a rectangle around the whole button, in the window popping up select the link behaviour, submit with OK.
Then copy & paste the button object to every page. I don't know whether pasting it on every of the 300 pages can be automated, but if not, it is still done quite fastly.

How to create a link which will redirect to a different iView?

Hello,
I have a certain iView, let's call it "myiView" which sits inside a certain Role, let's call it "myRole".
At the Homepage of the users I have KM navigation iView which shows a certain folder. I would like to create inside this folder a link to "myiView", this way when users will click on this link at the Homepage they will be redirected automaticly to "myiView". I remember reading once something regarding internal links perhaps this is solution but I'm not sure. Can anyone please show me how to create such link which redirects to another iView at the portal.

Roy

Hey Prakash,
I am creating a KM link to this target, where at this link I can write javascript? As far as I know it is only possible at the iView level no? And where do I take the PCD URL from?
Hey Ashutosh,
I think that your method will open a whole new browser since it is an external link, I woulk like to keep the current navgation at the same page, simply navigate the user to a different place at the portal...
