In report layout, can format a long string display as Column mode?

Hi,
Just want to check in report builder any way can format a long string into a column mode?
Example: I have a field to hold 8000 character, and would like to print
30 character in each line, when reach 50 line, then print in column i/o to print next page?
Any idea ? Thanks a lot if you can share your experience with me.
best Regards,
Klnghau

hi let say your field name is x
then if your want it word wrap then it's simple just get one field and make it's vertical
elasticity variable. and asign the field to it..
but if you want your field to be displayed as
first colunm and then beside continuation of that column but in 2nd one...
then create 2 formula columns make your field legth been distributed half in each.
so cf_1 is:
decalre
t varchar2(1510);
begin
if length(:x) > 1500
t := substr(x, 1, 1500); -- as 30 x 50 = 1500
else
t := :x;
end if;
return t;
so cf_2 is:
decalre
t varchar2(1510);
begin
if length(:x) > 1500
t := substr(x, 1500, length(:x)-1500); -- as 30 x 50 = 1500
else
t := '';
end if;
return t;
and then in design view
field1 field2
for field1 source is cf_1 and
for field2 source is cf_2
that's all
Enjoy Oracle...

How to insert a very long string into a column of datatype 'LONG'

Can anyone please tell me how can I insert a very long string into a column of datatype 'LONG'?
I get the error, ORA-01704: string literal too long when I try to insert the value into the table.
Since it is an old database, I cannot change the datatype of the column. And I see that the this column already contains strings which are very long.
I know this can be done using bind variables but dont know how to use it in a simple query.
Also is there any other way to do it?

How to Export SSRS report into Excel format using query string

Hello all,
I am new to SSRS world.
Last night i was trying to add a hyperlink on the SSRS report (.rdl) file, by clicking which we can export the report into "Excel" format, but with no luck.
Can anybody tell me how to form the hyperlink, so that we can export the report with its current content ( I mean the report content generated by selecting some parameter values)

Hi Suman85,
Based on your scenario, you want to add a link on the SSRS report file, and then click it you can export the report into “Excel” format.
Just as kishan1901 said , you can add a textbox to your report and type in the words “Click here and export the report
to excel” .Then right-click the textbox and select Properties. Switch to Navigation tab, click the radiobutton of ‘Jump to URL’ and type in the expression ,here is just a example:
="http://vyof1884200/ReportServer$youhoo?/My+Adventure+Works/Product+Sales+and+Profitability+by+Month&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=excel"
Then preview the report ,you will see
Click here and export the report to excel
when you move the mouse to it ,the mouse will become a hand ,then left-click, it will jump out a dialog box to indicate user whether the excel file should be saved , opened or canceled.
I think this is what you want, if you have any further requirement, could you please describe it in more detail? We would give you some resolution or workaround.

HT5147 Can't see my track displays during performance mode. Help!

I have two loops for a music set I'm playing. When Mainstage is in Performance mode I can't see the track titles. It plays but can't see anything. Is there a way to turn on the track display in performance mode?

Hi
Sounds like you have not mapped Screen Controls (waveform display, parameter display etc) to the current patch (or set) Loopback (or Playback) plugs?

SAP B1 Collection Report's crystal report layout printing format

Hi all,
We're having an issue in Crystal Report fro SAP Business One - for the Collection (aged-debt) report.
The report is basically doing the following when previewing it in SAP Business One.
It prints the header information etc on the first page and then the detailed information filling up the page as expected - it then prints more lines (not filling up the page - maybe 10 lines or so) from the detailed section to the second page (without any headers etc) - then the third page contains headers again with the detailed line data and the fourth then has a couple of lines but without any header data - and so on...
We've checked the standard page settings - all looks fine.We've checked the section expert - again can't see anything particularly bizarre. It's as though Crystal thinks the page is actually ending someway down the second page!
Has anyone come across a similar scenario and what would be the solution to this sort of issue?
Many thanks,
Mohsen

Hi Mohsen,
You may check Selection Expert - Paging tab to see if they have been changed. What is the setting for Report header and Page header?
Thanks,

The BI report created by Query designer does not display all columns

Dear Experts,
I have created a BI report using the Query Designer.
When I execute the query, only 6 columns have been displayed.
The total columns are 12. I need to display all 12 columns at the first instance.
Could any one help me to resolve this problem?
Thank you very much!
Arthur

Hi Athul,
Thanks for your reply.
There is not marked for '.Supress Zero' in the Rows and Columns.
And I did not check for 'Hide repeated values' in the Display tab.
Any other place you could suggest to verify?

Attribute "Report Layout" is missing in the "Print Attributes" tab for IR

Hallo,
The attribute “Report Layout” is missing in the “Print Attributes” tab for an interactive report?
How to alter the report layout (xsl-fo) of an interactive report?
Has someone any idea where to configure this?
Btw, for the "classic" SQL Report the XSL-FO "Report Layout" can be cahnged in "Print Attributes" and this works fine for me. But I want to change the xsl-fo for the interactive report.
"If you do not select a report layout, a default XSL-FO layout is used. The default XSL-FO layout is always used for rendering Interactive Report regions. ... Unlike classic reports, the Interactive Report Print Attributes can only utilize the default XSL-FO layout and is initiated from the Report Attributes, Download section rather than directly from this screen. Once configured, these attributes only apply only to the current region and cannot be used outside the context of the region."
http://apex.oracle.com/i/doc/bldapp_rpt_print.htm
How can the "default XSL-FO layout" be changed?
Changing is necessary because the Apache FOP 1.0 reports the following error (for the transmitted default XSL-FO):
"fo:simple-page-master", "fo:region-body" must be declared before "fo:region-before"
http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#fo_region-before
The default report layout is not saved in:
select * from APEX_040000.WWV_FLOW_REPORT_LAYOUTS
Thx, Willi

I've found two workaround for getting Apache FOP 1.0 to work with Oracle Apex 4.0 for PDF printing of interactive reports:
1, Use an application process to set your custom layout for interactive reports:
[ ] grant all on APEX_040000.WWV_RENDER_REPORT3 to {YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME};
[ ] Create an Application Process e.g. "Custom Report Layout" with constraint for request 'PDF' and Process Text:
declare
v_xsl varchar2(32767);
begin
v_xsl := '<?xml version = ''1.0'' encoding = ''utf-8''?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
<fo:region-body region-name="region-body" margin-top="54.0pt" margin-bottom="54.0pt"/>
<fo:region-before region-name="region-header" extent="54.0pt"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>';
APEX_040000.WWV_RENDER_REPORT3.g_prn_template := v_xsl;
end;2, If you have some knowlege in Java change the sequnce of the the nodes in the apex_fop.jsp (or servlet), ie. changing the xsl before you use it for transformation.
The code depends on the solution you are using to parse the xsl string.
Hope this may help someone,
Willi

Dynamic Column Headings in Report Layout

I am using Report Query/Report Layout for a custom report in BI publisher. My Column Headings are stored in the database. On my pages, I am using the replacement format ' &FIELD_NAME.' to have them show up correctly. How can I do that on my Report Layout?

Hi -
1) Add Query just for column headings under Source Query (you can obviously pass in bind variables to select the correct column values if need be).
2) For layout, pull in the headers from data model (just like any other field) and use them to replace any existing "hard coded" headers.
Good luck.

Is there an easy way to convert a long string into an array?

I can convert a long string into a 1-d array by parsing and using build array, but I would like to know if there is a function to make this easier.
For example:
from/   aaaaaaaabbbbbbbbccccccccdddddddd         (string of ascii)
to/       an array that is 1-d with each element having eight characters
          aaaaaaaa
          bbbbbbbb
          cccccccc
          dddddddd
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try something like this:
(If you can guarantee that the string length is an integer multiple of 8, you an drop the two triangular modes in the upper left. )

ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG Classic Report

I am trying to create a report but get a ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column error. I am a fairley new to Apex and my SQL skills are far from expert level. I have 3 groups we will call 'A' 'B' 'C'. 'A' is the best group 'B' is the next best and 'C' is the lowest group. Let say there are 5 people they all want to be in group A but where they are placed is based on their audition score and the users selection.
Joe score is 50
Beth 40
John 30
Ken 20
Sally 10
The user selects that he wants 2 people in group 'A' and 1 in group 'B' and 2 in group C. The SQL needs to rank Joe and Beth in Group A. John in group 'B' and Ken and Sally in group 'C'. The user does this type of selection for about 15 different instrument groups to make up group (band) for 'A', 'B', and 'C'.
Here is what I have come up with that gives me the error mention above when creating a report but works in SQL developer. There is probably a far better way to write this than what I have. I am open to suggestions. Band 'A' SQL example is for all instruments. SQL's for 'B' and 'C' are just a samples of the whole thing.

Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already).
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
You should also always post code wrapped in <tt>\...\</tt> tags.
I am trying to create a reportWhen asking a question about "reports" it's firstly essential to differentiate between standard and interactive reports. Which is it?
but get a ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column error.Where and when do you get this error? When creating the report? Or running it?
There's also an obvious bug (repeated many times):
and a.festival_year = ':P6_YEAR'
ORDER BY total, a.ID DESC NULLS LAST)
WHERE Stu_Rank <= (select hb_piccolo from festival_years
               where year = ':P6_YEAR')
...<tt>':P6_YEAR'</tt> is a literal string, not a bind variable reference. <tt>':P6_YEAR'</tt> seems an unlikely value for <tt>festival_year</tt> and <tt>year</tt> values. It should be:
and a.festival_year = :P6_YEAR
ORDER BY total, a.ID DESC NULLS LAST)
WHERE Stu_Rank <= (select hb_piccolo from festival_years
               where year = :P6_YEAR)
...or even better:
and a.festival_year = to_number(:P6_YEAR)
ORDER BY total, a.ID DESC NULLS LAST)
WHERE Stu_Rank <= (select hb_piccolo from festival_years
               where year = to_number(:P6_YEAR))
...if the <tt>festival_year</tt> and <tt>year</tt> columns are of type NUMBER. There's a possibility that this bug is in fact the source of your error...
Furthermore, this is a long piece of SQL. It may be that APEX can't cope with the length. However it's also very repetitive: we see the same SQL pattern repeated many times and UNIONed together. One way to reduce the length of the query would be to replace some (or all) of those repeating patterns. This will not only make the query more APEX-friendly, but it will probably be more efficient and easier to maintain too.
I recommend that you Re: 2. How do I ask a question on the forums? that will enable others to have a go at this. Reproducing the app on apex.oracle.com and posting guest developer credentials would also be helpful.

BI Publisher Report Layout Get Distorted when viewed in different format

Hi Experts,
I am facing issue while running BI Publisher Report.
The Report Layout work fine in one output format (PDF).
But when the same report is generated in different format it get distorted (HTML,EXCEL).
Could any one please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Is there any SR raised for this issue.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
I have faced a similar issue, Finally i created a different template for each output type, and tweaked each template through trial and error till the output it provided was what i was looking for in the specified output format, I had a different template for PDF and a different one for HTML. If I used the html optimised template for PDF out, there were all sorts of alignment issues, etc.and vice versa. As for the date format, you can set the parmeter correctly using the word date format properties.

Can't see Report Layout in IE

Hi All,
When i am executing the report in report designer, the report is executing but cant see the layout of the report in IE . I can see all tools and options except report layout at portal and even i m not finding any error msg also. plz help in this regards.
Regards,
Kaushik

Hi Kaushik,
1) Are you facing the same problem with any other reports you format on report designer ?
What changes have you made to your report output?
Report Designer is a new feature of BI 7.0 and I know only the theory of it. You said you have checked with WAD..have you tried using this report which is having problem in WAD as 'Report Web item'?
There might be a setting that you need to do in report desginer or there is some additional installation to be done in order to support Report Designer (remember this is a new feature so even Basis or Protal teams are new to it!)
See these two items from help.sap,
4. Executing the Report
You execute the report in the portal (Web). The report is displayed in the standard Web template for reports. You can set the standard Web template for reports in Customizing for the standard Web templates at SAP NetWeaver ® Business Intelligence ® Reporting-Relevant Settings ®BEx Web ®Set Standard Web Templates ® Enterprise Report.
You can also create a print version of the report directly in the Report Designer. The report is converted into a PDF document, which you can then print.
5. Publishing the Report
You can publish reports in BI roles or as iViews in the portal.
You can also call the BEx Broadcaster from the Report Designer and broadcast reports. More information: Functions of the BEx Broadcaster
Also see this.
Use
When you display a report in the portal (Web), it is automatically embedded in the standard Web template for reports. The report is displayed in a table on the Web. In addition, a date in the upper area of the Web template indicates how current the data is. Using the standard pushbuttons provided, Information, Send, and Print Version, and the link Filter, you can access the most common functions for navigating in and further editing your report.
Integration
When you have created and saved a report in the Report Designer, choose (Execute): The report is displayed automatically in the portal using the standard Web template for reports.
From a technical perspective, the standard Web template for reports is based on the 0REPORT_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE Web template. This Web template is set as the default for displaying reports from the Report Designer in the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide under SAP NetWeaver ® Business Intelligence ® Reporting-Relevant Settings ® BEx Web ® Set Standard Web Templates ® Enterprise Report. The standard Web template contains three pushbuttons, Information, Send and Print Version, and the link Filter to call the filter pane.
You can copy this Web template to make changes and set it as your new standard Web template for reports in the IMG. Note that to activate the changes in the SAP Reference IMG, you must start the J2EE Engine.
Here is the link.

All the best!
