How to generate a report to a file calling it from report client

Hey there,
I am pretty new to the whole Oracle world. I have found very little technical books about Report Builder or Report Designer (whichever you prefer to call). Therefore I am unable to figure this out. I know I can generate my report to a certain number of file types if I am running it from the Report Designer 6i, but my user are calling from a application trough the Report Client. I would like to know how I can let them choose whether to preview on screen or to send to a file (a .html file would do). If anybody out there can help me out I will really appreciate.
Thanks a lot,
Gleisson Silva

Thanks a lot ! ! ! This was easy enough ! Now I only have a problem, when I run the report with the output file as a html file, my columns lost their default layout. For example, column which is 10 characters long becomes like 8 characters. As opposed to any other file type. Is there some configuration that I need to do?
Once again thanks!
Gleisson Silva

How do you delete [empty] a single file or folder from "Trash"?

How do you delete [empty] a single file or folder from "Trash"?
Can you "securely delete" just 1 item?

A dangerous and incorrect shell command has been posted in this thread.
NEVER empty the Trash in the shell (Terminal.) NEVER put anything in the Trash unless you intend to delete it immediately. If you do put something in the Trash and change your mind about deleting it, move it out or use the Put Back contextual menu item. Then empty the remaining items in the Trash as usual.

I used the utility, MozBackup.exe, to create: Firefox___.pcv and Thunderbird___.pcv. How do I import or use these files to update from AutoCADGuru to ProCADGuru

Firefox Team,
I used the utility, MozBackup.exe, to create:
Firefox 3.6 (en-US) – 2013-02-10.pcv
Thunderbird 13.0.1 (en-US) – 2013-02-10.pcv
How do I import or use these files to update from AutoCADGuru to ProCADGuru?
Thanks in Advance,
Kenny

You are giving conflicting information
Your question started with "How do I import or use these files to update from AutoCADGuru to ProCADGuru? "
Then you said:
"Autodesk's legal department threatened me with a law suit, because my domain name had “AutoCAD in it. So I change it to ProCADGuru. I created” Firefox 3.6 (en-US) – 2013-02-10.pcv and Thunderbird 13.0.1 (en-US) – 2013-02-10.pcv to back everything up. Now I need to know how to use them to restore all of that saved data and update it to my new domain. "
Then you said:
"How do I import or use these files to update from www.AutoCADGuru.com to www.ProCADGuru.com?"
So all that you have explained so far has been about closing down one webhost and moving to another, which has nothing to do with Firefox or Thunderbird.
Then today you say:
"I need to know how to use these to restore all of my Address books, email books, sent, saved, and settings for both Firefox and Thunderbird. "
What is the problem you are trying to solve here? is this about transferring Email settings in Thunderbird, Bookmarks in Firefox, moving a website from one host to another, or something totally different?

How to get file input stream from the client machine by JSF Fileupload API?

Dear Friends,
How to get the file input stream from the client machine by JSF HtmlFileupload or fileupload API. At present, if i execute the file upload code in the client machine, it is able to get the local path of the file and looking for the file in server machine. So i am getting FileNotFoundException.
E.g., If a file is located at client machine at following location means "C:\Test\Test.txt",
uploadClass.getFileuploadComponent().getFilename().toString() returns "C:\Test\Test.txt". But it is looking for that file in server and throwing FileNotFoundException.
Please post your replies soon.
Thanks,
JP

Depends on which version of JSF you're using. If JSF 1.2, I wouldn't even bother trying to hack this into JSF itself unless you can use something like Seam 2 or richfaces.
http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_3_3_X/en/devguide/html/rich_fileUpload.html
http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.2.1.CR3/reference/en-US/html/controls.html#d0e29259 (look for s:fileUpload)
But if I were you, a simple non-jsf form with a servlet works best for taking file uploads.
As for JSF 2.0, there are other ways of getting it done.

Calling Forms from Reports

Hi...
We can call Reports from Forms using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT or RUN_PRODUCT. Can we call Forms or any other product from Reports? If so, how can we do it? If anyone can help me in this...

Hi Gayathri
As such there is no product integration for calling Forms from Report. You can call 6i graphics from Reports 9i if you are running a 6i rdf file with OGD object in it and if you have a 6i home set in the same machine where Report s9i is running. For Form, if you wish to run it as an independent request, in Reports 9i, you can always import a java class in Reports and then call that class method in any of the triggers which in turn send out a Forms request to Forms servlet.
Thanks

How to drill down the cause of "SQL*Net message from/to client"

Pretty frustrated with my tune up using suggestions from many papers for Oracle 10g R2 on AIX 5.3 L system. My users told me that the system (including Baan 5c) still responds slowly in some processes, some even worsen.
Using both queries such as
SELECT sid, schemaname, status FROM gv$session ORDER BY 2;
SELECT inst_id, seq#, event, p1, p2, p3, wait_time FROM v$session_wait_history WHERE sid=<sid from above>
INST_ID SEQ# EVENT P1 P2 P3 WAIT_TIME
1 1 SQL*Net message from client 1413697536 1 0 6419
1 2 SQL*Net message to client 1413697536 1 0 0
and others similar, I found very large numbers (almost 97%) of the sessions have events as “SQL*Net message to client” and “SQL*Net message from client” on their wait_time even the sids are in inactive status. After checking the meaning of those messages in Oracle Performance and Tuning document, the document states that mainly they are probably network problems. So How can I drill down to what status of network from my client (the users) to server by Oracle or AIX? In Baan, it has its own parameter sets in its db_resource file controlling the connectivity. In average, there are 4000 “opened cursor current”, but most of them inactives.
So my colleague asked me rollback all th changes I did on OS level such as minperm%=5
maxperm%=90
maxclient%=90,
lgpg_regions lgpg_size,
sys0 maxuproc=512,
aio0 maxservers='260'
and many ioo parameters to system defaults.
I even removed the mulitplex copy of the redo log.
I tried to proof them that there maybe the problem of the Baan/Oracle connectivity, ie due to message above,

http://docs.oracle.com ... read them for configuration information.
http://tahiti.oracle.com ... read them for recommendations.
http://otn.oracle.com ... find the best practices docs.
http://metalink.oracle.com ... look for similar issues to yours.
People that change things, on production boxes, without first determining that metrics indicate they are a good idea, and then determining their impact on a test box, should be sold to zoos as leopard food.
PS: Slowly likely has absolutely nothing to do with anything you touched. First you tune the application. Then you tune the database. Then you tune the operating system. Get out of the way and make the DBAs do their job.

How to run a report to a file ascii in forms/report 10G

We have an application in form an report 6i and we are going to translate it in 10G dev suite.
We have a problem with any forms modules which run report to file ascii with particular format.
After these files are send to printer o machine with host comand (we use the webutil for the host comand).
How can we run tese reports to file ascii ?

Hi,
if you print a Reports to the file system then this happens on the server. Your options are
a) Run the Reports with destype=cache and have the user printing it from the Browser
b) Print the Reports to the file system as before and make the directory accessible on the Web so that you can call the file using web.show_document()
c) You use Run_Report_Object() and print the reports to a network printer next to the user
d) check otn.oracle.com/products/forms for orarrp (an unsupported utility but working)

How to make slicer to remember selected values while moving from report to another

I have Power View on SharePoint 2013 and OLAP Cube on SQL Server 2014 solution.
1) I select slicer values and graphs are updated
2) I move to next page on same Power View file and use slicers.
3) I come back to original reports. My slicer valuers are empty.
Is it possible to make slicer to remember selected values while browsing from reports to another?
Ken

Hi Kenny_I,
This seems to a by design issue. The selected values within a slicer will be stored in Memory. When we go to another report, the memory will be released.

Calling VA01 from Report,how to get the Sales Order No when Back.

Hi all,

did recording ...&
call transaction va01 using bdcdata.
but my problem is when back from that trasaction i have to get the sales order that is created . Is it possible to retrieve that value from va01 .i am unable to get . anyone pls share

Use the addition MESSAGES INTO itab with call transaction va01 using bdcdata.
Effect of MESSAGES INTO itab:
Using this addition, all the messages sent during batch input processing are stored in an internal table itab of the type BDCMSGCOLL from the ABAP Dictionary.
If the call transaction is successful then retrieve the last message from itab and then in any field among MSGV1,MSGV2,MSGV3,MSGV4 of itab u will get the document no.
And when doing the call transaction pl. choose update mode as 'S' or 'L'.

Calling BSP from report and return control back ?

Hi All,
      My requirement is as follows :-
1. I am calling a BSP from report using CL_GUI_HTML_VIEWER->show_url. The BSP page is displayed successfully.
2. Then, I perform some operations and want to return some data back to the main program (from where it was called - Report) and continue execution from there
How do I accomplish the second requirement (Control doesnt come back once I close the BSP) ?
Regards,
Ashish

how to generate events from html code in the html control back to your ABAP check out this demo program
SAPHTML_EVENTS_DEMO
say for example, in your case you are showing the BSP in GUI HTML control and on clicking a link you want to pass some data from your link to ABAP program and the ABAP should receive the value and process it and may be comeback to same BSP or go some to some other screen/transaction.
steps to follow:
after creating the html control
register event for call back and call the BSP url.
create object hviewer
             exporting
               parent = mycont.
    myevent-eventid = hviewer->m_id_sapevent.
    myevent-appl_event = 'x'.
    append myevent to myevent_tab.
    call method hviewer->set_registered_events
      exporting
        events = myevent_tab.
    create object evt_receiver.
    set handler evt_receiver->on_sapevent
                for hviewer.
    hviewer->enable_sapsso(
      exporting
        enabled    = 'X'
      exceptions
        cntl_error = 1
        others     = 2
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
    endif.
    call method hviewer->show_url
      exporting
        url = wf_url.
in your BSP the link should look like below
A HREF=SAPEVENT:TAGS?value to be passed to your ABAP> link text </a
when you click this link in bsp then you can then capture the value "TAGS" to know which link was clicked and the value passed after the ?
link is just one option, you can also send whole form data.
this type of link and form will only work when your BSP is invoked within HTML contro. if its invoked from standalone browser these wont work. so you amy want to dynamically show/hide "sapevent" links based on where it runs.
Hope this is clear. if not do getback.
Regards
Raja

Calling graph from Reports created in graphics builder?

Can you call a graph from Reports 6.0 that was created in Graphics Builder. I know you can call a graph from Forms. I tried creating my graph right in Reports with the wizard but for some reason it does not give me the fields I want to use in the available fields column, so I created the graph in Graphics Builder. Do you use a trigger of some sort. Any examples would be appreciated if this is possible. Thanks

Justin Beno:
Yes, you can call a graph from inside a report. All you need to do is select the button with the graph on it (not the icon with the wand, which indicates chart wizard). Then draw graph in the area of the report where you want the graph to display. After completing this, right click on graph, select Property Palette, Chart - Chart Filename (this is where you will type in the directory and filename of your graph that you created in Oracle Graphics).
