How to run reports thru menu in 10g

Hi,
I'm a junior oracle programmer and have already migrated forms 6i to 10g. Now I have to migrate the reports to 10g. I have read many documentations about running report from forms or menu, but the more I read, the more confused I get. Please note that I am very new to all this oracle stuff. So please bear in mind that I might not understand everything too well. Thats the reason I would like help from you experts out here.
We have a menu (mmb) which has two horizontal sub menus (eg. Forms & Reports). Now Forms and Reports again in turn hv couple of vertical sub menus. Each vertical submenu under Forms calls a form (for eg. submenu_f1 calls forms1, submenu_f2 calls forms2 and so on). Same thing for Reports (eg. submenu_r1 calls report1, submenu_r2 calls report2, etc). Now this is what we want for the Reports. Each of our report has parameters like Begin Date, End Date, Agency_Type, Year, etc. We want our user to have one more choice in the parameters "FORMAT" (pdf, excel, html, etc) . Now this is what I dont know how to do. I cannot use run_report_object here cause I cannot create a report object in menu (like how we can do it in forms). I tried web.show_document but the problem in this is that everything is hard-coded, so I cannot give a choice in the desformat.
I would appreciate if someone can tell me how to run my report thru menu and give the user the option for the format. The users mostly want the output in excel (but might want pdf, etc too).
Plus we want to schedule certain reports to run at certain times everyday or every month, how can I do that?????
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for taking your time to reply my query.

Hi,
cannot use run_report_object here cause I cannot create a report object in menu (like how we can do it in forms).
Create a generic named Report node in the forms that you reference from the RunReport object request. This way you can run Reports from a menu

How to run reports in Application Server 10g?

Run Report Through Menu in 10g

Hi Gurus
I am new to Development. I have managed to create a .jsp file using Report Builder in 10g. This report has user-defined parameter. I also have a Form with Menu. Now I want to add a menu item so that when user click on it the report that I just created should run on web.
I have installed DevSuite 10g wth typical settings on a single machine so I think both forms & reports servers are on the same machine.
Please help me!
Thank you all in advance

and also u need not give the report name . You shud give the name of the report object which u created in the navigator
I used the following code in the menu_item
declare
repid report_object;
v_rep varchar2(100);
rep_status varchar2(20);
begin
repid:=FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('ALL_STUDENTS_BASIC_REPORT.JSP');
v_rep:=RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
END;

I hope this example you can use it
PROCEDURE pr_reporte IS

The 'rep_lab02' is the name of the report that you give in the node reports
p_fec_uno and p_fec_dos they are the parameters in the report

Run reports thru form

hi
every body
i am trying to run report thru form.it's running fine but when i choose destype file
then it doesn't show printjob message
plz help me it's show or not
if yes plz help me
with thanx

Hi,
what do yo mean by that it doesn't show printjob message? If you use run_report_object() ain Forms, then the only feedback you get is through the returned status message. When running a Report from the Reports Servlet, then you get receive an acknowledgement in teh Webbrowser that the Reports was printed successfully (in case you mean this message). If you like to see this message shown when running Reports from Forms, then use web.show_document() in a call to the Reports Servlet.
However, using Run_Report_Object() provides you the same information about success and failure of a Report run.

How to run Net Configuration Assistant on 10g Forms and Reports server

I have a Windows 2000 server with Forms and Reports Services installed from AS 10g v. 9.0.4 (just the Forms and Reports install). According to the OUI, Net Configuration Assistant 9.0.4 is also installed. However I cannot figure out how to run the Net CA. There is no shorcut that I can find. Can anyone help?

Thanks for the reply Frank. I have looked all through the Start menu but see no "Configuration and Migration". I assume it's because I only installed the Forms and Reports option, so I only have Forms Services, Reports Services, and the Universal Installer. No big deal - I've already setup tnsnames manually. I just like to use the Net Assistant when I can.

Hello,
<p>You can inspire from this article<br>It is a sample dialog that allows to launch any report with 0 up to 10 parameters.<br>Open the sample dialog, then you can see how the Run_Report_Object() built-in is used in the Start_Report program unit..<p>

How to run report from context menu using XML Extensions?

I have found an example how to run SQL command from context menu:
<items>
<folder type="TABLE">
<name>UserDefined ContextMenus</name>
<item TYPE="TABLE" reloadparent="true">
<title>Create SYNONYM</title>
<prompt type="check">
<label>PUBLIC</label>
<value>PUBLIC</value>
</prompt>
<prompt>
<label>NEW SYNONYM NAME</label>
</prompt>
<sql>
<![CDATA[CREATE #0# SYNONYM #1# for "#OBJECT_OWNER#"."#OBJECT_NAME#"]]>
</sql>
<help>
This action create a SYNONYM (optionally public) for the selected table.</help>
<confirmation>
<title>Confirmation</title>
<prompt>SYNONYM "#1#" for "#OBJECT_NAME#" has been created.</prompt>
</confirmation>
</item>
</folder>
</items>
</prompt>
But instead of executing SQL command I need to show result page of report based on SELECT statement.

Hi dz_r-
Not sure exactly what you mean by "result page of report", but extensive documentation on the xml schema defining context menu actions is available at the schema location.
