How to Run Batch files from inside Reports.

Hi All,
I have 2 questions.
1) How to change the direction of the reports with Arabic orientation i.e Right to left Change without changing the registry.
2) How to execute a batch file from report or before execution of the report i.e before opening the report.
I want to set few environmental variables before opening the report. How do i achieve this?
Request the forum community to discuss and help me out on this issue.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Inol
Though my report is running NLS variable values given in the batch file is not getting picked.
Here is my batch file contents. My NLS Variables are not getting picked in the reports. I want that to be picked up and the reports orientation should change automatically as per the NLS variables given in the batch file.
Please go through my batch file code.
set NLS_LANG                   = AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
set NLS_CALENDAR            = GREGORIAN
set NLS_DATE_FORMAT      = dd/MON/yyyy
set FORMS60_PATH           =   <Enter Relevant Path>
set REPORTS60_PATH        =  <Enter Relevant Path>
set PATH=%PATH%;c:\forms6i\bin
set ORACLE_HOME             =   c:\forms6i
set TNS_ADMIN                 =   c:\forms6i\NET80\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA
rwrun60.exe d:\DOTNETORION17_bin\elist_rg1.rdf userid=scott/tiger@thai P1=10Please help me out in getting this value picked and run the report.

    You might improve your chances of getting help if you do two things:
    1) Explain what "not working" means.
    2) ChangeSystem.out.println(IOEx); to IOEx.printStackTrace(); (in the eventhat is in fact related to "not working").

  • Running batch files  from Java using exec method

    Hi,
    I want to run a batch file from my Java program like this:
    try {
    Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\Refresh.bat");
    catch (Exception e) {
    MessageBox.show(e.getMessage());
    Refresh.bat file contains two commands.
    First one unzips certain zip file.
    Second one refreshes a SQL Server database using osql utility.
    Problem is that when program is run it executes only the first command and hangs on the second one.
    Please help.
    TIA
    Ravinder

    From the FAQ:
    2. How do you launch an external program on a Microsoft Windows platform from a program developed on the Java [tm] programming language?
    The following will launch notepad in Microsoft Windows NT:
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c notepad.exe");
    To launch a program in Microsoft Windows 95/98 use:
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("c:\\windows\\notepad.exe");
    The Runtime class allows interaction between a program and its environment. The first string command instructs the command line interpretor, cmd to open up the calculator application.
    The exec() methods do not use a shell; any arguments must have the full pathname to the shell as well as the command itself.
    For example, to run a shell on the UNIX� platform, type:
    Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
    Process p = rt.exec("/usr/bin/sh -c date");
    To run a batch file under Microsoft Windows 95/98:
    Process p = rt.exec("command.com /c c:\\mydir\\myfile.bat");
    To run a batch file under Microsoft Windows NT:
    Process p = rt.exec("cmd /c c:\\mydir\\myfile.bat");
    where 'cmd' and 'command.com' are the command-line interpreters for Microsoft Windows machines.
    The Runtime.exec() methods might not work effectively for some processes on certain platforms. Special care should be taken with native windowing, daemon, WIN16/DOS process or some shell scripts.

  • How to run .cmd file from a Powershell script

    Hi,
    I would like to know how I run commands from a powershell script? how to use the invoke-command?
    This powershell script doesnt work for me
    Invoke-Command C:\setup.cmd -ArgumentList install-setupforced

    To run a batch file from powershell, just type its name with arguments. I'd recommend explicitly including the .CMD file type and, if it is located in the current folder, powershell rules require you to explicitly say so, i.e.:
       ./mybatch.cmd inputfile.txt outputfile.txt
    To run a single cmd.exe command, just prefix it with cmd.exe /c as Mike says:
        cmd.exe /c color 48
    to run a series of "&"- separated cmd.exe commands you need to enclose the complete command string in double quotes:
        cmd.exe /c "color 37 & dir"
    Beyond that it can get complicated due to various characters that are special to powershell and those special to cmd.exe. If you need to run a series of cmd.exe commands, your best short term bet is to put them in a batch file. The best long-term bet is
    to move more completely to the powershell way of doing things...

  • How to run batch file using trigger?

    Hi, i am trying run a batch file using a trigger on a table.
    say i have a table XYZ(col_1 varchar2 primary key, col_2 varchar2)
    the values of col_2 keeps changing and col_1 are constant
    whenever the value of col_2 in any row changes from "on" to "off" i want to run a batch file C:\Users\ABC\Desktop\test.bat
    i did some searching but couldn't find any solution. Thanks in advance
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production

    >
    the script will be started around 60-70 times a day
    >
    No - as marwim said the script will be executed every time the trigger is fired. And that trigger, depending on how it is written, might be fired several times for the same transaction.
    And if the trigger is fired the script will be executed even if the transaction that caused the trigger to fire issues a ROLLBACK.
    Triggers are non-transactional. You need to clearly define the business rules for when the script should run. Should it run only when the transaction is COMMITTED? Or should it run if the transaction executes even if the transaction performs a ROLLBACK?
    A trigger is the wrong solution for your problem.
    Please clarify what the business rules are that should control the execution of the script.

  • How to run batch files in the backround ??????

    please anyone tell me how to run the batch files in the background i dont want anyone to interfere the batch file..The batch file has to run for a long time even days so it will be safe if the batch file is running in the bachgroung somewhere ..
    please help me in this regards
    Thanking u
    Regards
    Santhosh

    The easiest way is to write a native application which starts the batch file in hidden mode (the target batch file could be an argument).
    Under Windows it would be done with the API call
    ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "C:\mybatch.bat", NULL, NULL, SW_HIDE);
    Then compile the native tool as windows application with no user interface. Now you are able to execute applications in invisible mode.
