IMAGE Blob from a View into an Interactive Report.

I am creating an interactive report from a view. Two tables of interest make up the view:
Customers (ID, Name, Logo, Mimetype, Filename, Last_Update_Date)
Projects (ID, Title, CustomerID)
The view combines them both into
QryProjectDashboard (ID, Title, CustomerID, CustomerLogo, LogoMimetype, LogoFilename, LogoLastUpdateDate)
I hope the joins and such are obvious.
In setting up the report, I add all the columns above from the view. In the Customer Logo field settings, I was trying to set up the BLOB Download Format Mask which asks for:
1. Format Mask=Download
2. Blob Table = QryProjectDashboard
3. Bob Column = CustomerLogo
4. Primary Key 1 = CustomerID
5. MimeType Col = LogoMimeyype
6. Filename Col = LogoFilename
7. Blob Last Udate Col = LogoLastUpdateDate
8. Content disposition = Inline
9. Download Link Text = DOWNLOAD
Btw, I use all caps in the views and input fields and double checked all the spelling.
Clicking Apply in the Mask format window is ok, but when I click Apply in the Column Definition window, it complains "QryProjectDashboard" does not exist. So it doesn't seem to like the view.
So is the problem with using a view? how do I wire up the Blob if the report is based on a view? All the foreign keys are set up and there are no known priv issues.

Thanks, that worked, but of course I don't like it... it just feels like a hack. I would prefer to keep ID name in my query to point to the main table instead of the child table.
Also, note that you need to use the function dbms_lob.getlength around the BLOB column to convert it to a number.

Download of saved views of an interactive report

Hi all
When I am on a saved view of an interactive report and choose 'Download', I always get the data of the actual worksheet but not that form the saved report.
Has anyone a solution of this problem?
best regards
Gerhild

Hi Dan
that posting contains a good deal of information about REPORT_ID of an IR on rebuild environment or updating application, but nothing about saving IRs to file.
But in the meantime I detect the following issues:
1. using the Repot Id Item of Advanced Attributes, you get the behavior I had described above.
2. if you keep Repot Id Itemr of Advanced Attributes clean, the current view of the IR is downloaded to the file.
3. Therfore I thing, that the given REPORT_ID in the Item set in Repot Id Item of Advanced Attributes is only saved once, when loading the page, but not when the current view is changed by asynchronous javascripts (AJAX function apex.worksheet.ws.pull). But the funktion for downloading data of IR (apex.worksheet.ws.download ? - body of function is emty) uses the content of that item obviously.
I had a look at that scripts, but don't found the link between a variable of javascript and the Repot Id Item. For this reason I wasn't able to check this by eding the javascript of APEX; but I think this will be the only way to get the expected behavior.
Best regards
Gerhild

How to develop a Chart from Actions button of an Interactive Report ???????

Hi
I am trying to implement a chart from Actions button of an Interactive Report through frond end. I am getting the Flash Security error for this. I know we have to change the HOST variable for this. But i am not sure where exactly I do this. For a normal Flash Chart , i know that we have to do in the Region Source but for a chart from Interactive Report what do I do??????????
Thanks
Shruthi.

Hi
It seems you are using EPG.
Replacing #HOST# works for flash charts which you create yourself but I don't think you can do it for the charts generated by Interactive Reports. To fix this issue you either need to update host variable of EPG or the best is to use Apex Listener.
I would recommend you to use Apex Listener as it will avoid further issues if you use a Reverse Proxy with your Apex Server such as Lighttpd or Apache and use multiple Virtual Hosts etc.
To install Apex Listener see http://download.oracle.com/otn/java/appexpress/1.1/docs/AELIG/E21058_01.pdf?AuthParam=1324310446_77b28dc5a93555586fc93c0c8804e8de
You can use Stand Alone mode with Apex Listener as it is easy to very configure.

Migration from Brio8 version to Hyperion Interactive reporting version11

Hi,
We are migrating from Brio8 environment to Hyperion Interactive Reporting version 11 environment. I am referring hs_migration.pdf version 11. I am using migration utility tool to do migration.
my question is if I am migrating artifacts from Brio 8 repository to Hyperion 11 reposotory. Will it migrate all the old UUIDS of all the reports to the new repository or will it create new UUIDS for the reports. If that is the case reports which were saved offline referring to webbased queries will work?

Hi.
We are just now attempting an upgrade from Brio 6.5 and the On-Demand Server to Hyperion 9.3. Are any of you able and willing to address questions as they come up? I understand the set up and security of the Brio product thoroughly .. and create reports and EIS sections. BUT ... the terminology change from Brio to Hyp 9 is daunting and I'm needing to know how to begin to construct what in Brio I think of as the "Catalog". I'm interested in keeping our initial Hyp9 implementation simple ... and not take advantage of all the options in Hyp 9 which are not part of Brio.
Thank you!

Enabling Icon View in an Interactive Report

Hi all
I would have liked to add a screenshot to show what is exactly the nature of the problem, but since I cannot, I'll give as much details as I can.
So, any way, in Apex 4, I enabled the "Icon view" in the "Interactive Report Attributes" of an "Interactive Report". Once I ran the application, I switch the view of the report to "Icon View" and then deactivated the "Search Bar" (in the "Interactive Report Attributes") in order to restraint the user's view to the "Icon View". Everything worked just fine, I got the application to load the icons and to display them with a cute text... but then, even if the report is displayed as a horizontal "list", I remain stock with some of the report's view borders, + when I scroll my mouse on one of the icons, it highlight all the icons of the row like it will do for an interactive report's line. So what I will like to do is to completely hide the reports border and to disable the mouseover option.
I tried to resolve those two 'detail's by using the customizing options offered by Apex, but I couldn't find anything. I'm open to any suggestion...
Thx
Pierre

I guess there are not phone support... I cannot drag images from grid view into collections.

I have been trying desperately to fix this issue. I cannot drag any images from the grid view into collections. Can anyone help? I looked everywhere for a customer support number but I was not able to find one on Adobe Website.

Hi,
Only a couple of things I can think of:
1. Make sure it isn't a Smart Collection, and
2. Drag by placing the cursor on the actual picture NOT the grey area surrounding the image.

Bulk-copy from Sybase View into a File using Java Runtime...help !!!

The following is a bulk-copy operation, from a table in Sybase database into a file in Unix machine.
bcp view_name out file_name -c -U user_id -P password -S server_name
This bulk-copy utility is working fine when run from command line of a Unix machine, for any number of records.
But when I try to do it from a Java application for more than 1.84 lakh records in the view, the following problem occurs.
The file is created and from the view, 1.84 lakh records are copied into the file.
Then the program hangs.
The application waits for the bulk-copy process to be completed, which does not resume after copy of 1.84 lakh records.
No exceptions are thrown.
Even for just one record more than 1.84 lakh records, this happens.
The number of bytes corresponding to 1.84 lakh records many records are 11040060.
This is the bulk-copy portion of the application.
String strCommand = "bcp view_name out file_name -c -U user_id -P password -S server_name";
Runtime run = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = run.exec(strCommand);
int i = proc.waitFor();
I am capturing InterruptedException, IOException and the superset Exception also.
Pls throw some light on this.

Sorry to bother you, but I saw this topic you posted on the Sun Java Forum and was wondering if you were ever able to resolve it.
I am experiencing the exact same problem and was hoping to get it resolved soon.
Thanks in advance!

Drag image file from portfolio pdf into image field in reader

I'm new to the Adobe world and this is my first project. I'm not sure if this is even possible, but here's what I'm trying to do...
One document is a PDF portfolio with 200 images (jpg or tif). Each image in the portfolio will have a description. The second document is a PDF form created in LiveCycle. I want to be able to (from Reader with rights enabled) import the image from the portfolio into a field and have that image displayed along with the description all inside the form. Thanks so much in advance!

Bye , Rea

Probably a bit late, but I just got the same problem.
Oracle seems to instantiate a class which is not fully defined-
oracle.sql.BLOB. This class has abstract methods, and is therefore
an abstract class.
In short, Oracle are stupid fools. How they managed to instantiate
an abstract class in the first place should be of concern to the
Java gurus, however. Native code in the OCI driver perhaps?
If you still need help, you could try uning the Thin driver- or
a database with a JDBC driver which actually meets the spec. There
are third party Oracle drivers which might fit the bill- they
usually cost money, however.

Extract Data from a View into multiple columns

fairly new sql person here, I have a question on extracting data from a View that I have created and formatting it in a way that the user needs.
My View has the following columns:
Account
Department
Budget
Spent
Values would be such as:
Account Department Budget Spent
1 A 1.00 1.00
1 B 2.50 1.45
1 C 3.00 4.00
2 A 4.00 1.00
2 B 2.00 1.00
What I'm wanting to do is extract the data out in the following format:
<dept> <account> 1 <account> 2
<budget> <spent> <budget> <spent>
A 1.00 1.00 4.00 1.00
B 2.50 1.45 2.00 1.00
C 3.00 4.00
basically dept as a column and then separate columns for each accounts budget and spent values going across
thanks!

Search for pivot queries in this forum.
However, you need to have finite number of accounts in Account column, otherwise output will be, i must say, non-readable and the query to be written would be unrealistic.

How to pass ITEM:VALUE pair in ICON view link of Interactive Report

When Icon View is enabled in an interactive report, you can display graphic images (blob data that are stored in the database) in 3 different views.
1) View Icons
2) View Report
3) View Detail
When you click on the displayed image in views 1 and 3 you navigate to a form to manage the row data and the image. By default it only passes the PK id of the row.
How do I pass additional ITEM:VALUE pairs when navigating to the detail form page? I want to pass &APP_PAGE_ID. to the form page as well.
There is an attribute under ICON VIEW called "Link Column" but if I put the "item:value" pair in the fields for this item's "ColumnLink" attributes, there is no effect.
Also for bonus points...
how do you make the ICON VIEW attributes, "HTML ALT Text" and "HTML TITLE Text" dynamic e.g. &ITEM. doesn't work here.
thanks in advance
Paul P

For your link column, parse a link column in your query like so
apex_util.prepare_url('f?p=M:53:'||:APP_SESSION||'::::P53_IMAGE_ID:'||i.image_id)Scott

Passing values w/special characters in URL into an interactive report

Hello,
I have a problem and Ive been all over these forums and reading/trying everything I can to get something to work. I have a page that has a field called Name Search. The field is a TextField with autocomplete type. If I select a company name that contains special characters, like 'Blue Shield of California Life *&* Health Insurance Company', when I click go button (using a branch), it is supposed to pass this value into the URL to populate IR_COMPANY_NAME on the interactive report page to create the report filter. However, when it goes to the IR page, it actually filters on 'Blue Shield of California Life *& amp;* Health Insurance Company' with 'amp;' instead of & and doesnt find any matches. In the page source it is actually 'value="Blue Shield of California Life *& amp; amp ;* Health Insurance Company." Here is the URL that it produces:
http://webtest2:7775/apex/f?p=102:IRCompanyList:995769774353901::NO:5,RIR:IR_COMPANY_NAME,P5_COMPANY_NAME:Blue%20Shield%20of%20California%20Life%20%26amp%3B%20Health%20Insurance%20Company,Blue%20Shield%20of%20California%20Life%20%26amp%3B%20Health%20Insurance%20Company
The interesting thing is that I have another page that has a clasic report that lists all compnaies by name and the company_name is a link that passes the company name into the exact same IR and it works fine. In the page source it is value="Blue Shield of California Life *&* Health Insurance Company" Here is the URL that this page produces:
http://webtest2:7775/apex/f?p=102:5:995769774353901::NO:4,RIR:IR_COMPANY_NAME,P5_COMPANY_NAME:Blue%20Shield%20of%20California%20Life%20%26%20Health%20Insurance%20Company,Blue%20Shield%20of%20California%20Life%20%26%20Health%20Insurance%20Company
I have modified every field involved changing between encoding, no encoding, changing display types (Standard Report Column, Remove HTML and escape special characters, etc). I have also attempted to encode the value myself prior to sending it to the next page. I have tried variations of the htf.escape_sc etc. I have also tried adding \&P2_COMPANY_NAME.\. I have also tried adding pl/sql to create a collection to store the values and then pl/sql to fill the values on the report page. It gives me the success message I setup, but it never actually fills the value.
I am also having problems with another field that has a comma in it. I will wait to address that one to see if I can fix this first with hopes that it can be resolved by whatever I do to fix this issue.
Any suggestions? I appreciate any feedback!
Jen

Thank you for your feedback!
Yes, I forgot to mention that. It does come from a table, but company_name is not unique in that table. Meaning, it wouldnt know which ID to pass. Perhaps I should seperate the name out into another table and then I could pass the id. I was just hoping to get this to work programatically since the links from classic reports actually work correctly. I am starting to think this is a bug. This issue appears to have been addressed to make the links from reports pass the & correctly, but not in the branching?
I have attempted to replace and then re-replace but I couldnt get it to work with IR_ fields as the filter fields are generated by the Interactive Report region. Do you have any insight working with those? Are there any tricks to it that I might be missing?

How to get the item name from a column in an interactive report?

I created an interactive report. Then on the same page I added a tabular form region. What I want to implement is that, when I click a column link button on a specific row, the name of the row will be passed to the tabular region, so that the tabular region can list the corresponding items that belong to that specific row. But I have no idea what the name it is. Any idea? Thanks!

Thanks! I've got it work! Now I can associate many product to a specific ProductNumber.
Another issue comes up: I want to be able to add more products in this category. But when I press the "Add Row" button, it generates a new line but with ProductNumber null. This results me in failing to insert the new record, because the rule is that ProductNumber can't be null, and also it can't be assured that the new record is associated with this category (ProductNumber). What can I do to make it automatically come up with the same ProductNumber for new records? I guess some kind of a trigger may be needed, but I don't know how to do it.
I made a screenshot here: http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/3051/98605982.png
