Layout and euro sign in reports 2.5

Well my problem is that I can't get a good layout of my reports when I use
different printers .My developing printer is a Xerox DC 220, and I use also a
hp laserjet4 plus driver . I can't get a Standaard layout for printing my
reports.I am daying to layout each report for each printer and as we have many
customers it's not smart to make many layouts for each customer .
Is there any way or method to make a Standaard reports layout for differnt
printers?? another problem is I can't get an Euro sign when I print my reports
I got a patch from Microsoft site just for Euro (on windows NT 4.0)but it
doesn't work !!!!!
I am using reports 2.5 release(2.5.5.2.7) on a windows NT 4.0 ,build nr(1381)
service pack (6.0) my oracle database is 7.3.4
My printer is Xerox DC 220 and hp laserjet 4 plus driver
Well the main problem is the layout I can't get a WYSISWYG layout !! it's
really annoying to get something on my screen or preview and when I print it
I see something totally different ...
when I get a proper layout from my printer and send it to my customer they get
something else as layout .. I am using a default prt file in all my reports.
we have using a windows NT 4.0 with a service pack 6.0 and an euro patch from
microsoft but still doesn't work !! however when i use windows98 it works just fine !!
null

Double-click on the field on the layout and write something like:
if <condition> then return false;
in the field 'Format trigger' to the bottom of the dialog.

Currency SEK and EURO in ME23N report are appearing as EURO values in BI

Hi Experts,
The currency Values like Swedish Krone (SEK) and Euro in ME23N report in ECC are appearing as Euro values and the amounts are aggregated to total amount in EUROS in BI report.
I have checked the Multiprovider, Infocube and DSOs, all levels have the same amount value in Euros as in BI report.
There is not currency conversions in either transformations or in the report level.
I have checked the ECC tables EKKO, EKPA nad EKBE regarding the extractor 2lis_02_scl, its Euro currency in the tables also.
Can anybody advise from where does ME23N get data as client wants the same SEK and Euro currency as in ECC in BI report.
Thanks in advance...

Apostroph and euro sign not read corectly from txt file

apostroph and euro sign not read corectly from txt file.
my code is like this:
FileInputStream fis= new FileInputStream(x+".html");
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fis,"UTF-8"));
String Line="";
while ((Line = br.readLine()) != null) result+=Line;
br.close();
fis.close();
I use UTF-8 because the file contains also French characters.
What's the problem?
THANK YOU!

Euro sign in Report Query (RTF file)

Hi all,
I configured XML publisher as report server for report queries.
All seems to work well, except printing of euro signs.
When designing a template locally in word, everything works. When the RTF file is uploaded to apex and tested, the euro sign is displayed as a "?".
All charactersets are WE8MSWIN1252 (Database + modplsql), but I'm not able to find any NLS setting in XML publisher.
Anybody have experience with this?
Regards Guido

Guido,
I agree with you that this is a BI Publisher problem. The problem does not only appear with ApEx, for example see
Problem with symbol euro
I guess you are running BI Publisher on a non Windows machine, so you have to register the true type font. To do this, refer to BI Publisher documentation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10091_01/doc/bip.1013/b40017/T421739T481157.htm#4535419
(section External fonts).
I haven't tried myself, but it seems that the only things you have to do is (copied from the docs):
Place the font on the server.
Place the font in a directory accessible to the formatting engine at runtime.
Set the BI Publisher "font" property.
You can set the font property for the report in the BI Publisher Font Mappings page, or in the configuration file.
To set the property in the configuration file:
Update the BI Publisher configuration file "fonts" section with the font name and its location on the server. For example, the new entry for a TrueType font is structured as follows:
<font family="MyFontName" style="normal" weight="normal">
<truetype path="\user\fonts\MyFontName.ttf"/>
</font>Regards

Euro-sign (and Greek) doesn't work even with nchar/nvarchar2

This is something that has been blocking me for a few days now, and I'm running out of ideas.
Basically, the problem can be summarised as follows:
declare
    text nvarchar2(100) := 'Make €€€ fast!';
begin
dbms_output.put_line( text );
end;And the output (both in SQL Developer and Toad) is:
Make ¿¿¿ fast!See, I was under the impression that by using nchar and nvarchar2, you avoid the problems you get with character sets. What I need this for is to check (in PL/SQL) what the length of a string is in 7-bit units when converted to the GSM 03.38 character set. In that character set, there are 128 characters: mostly Latin characters, a couple of Greek characters that differ from the Latin ones, and some Scandinavian glyphs.
Some 10 other characters, including square brackets and the euro sign, are escaped and take two 7-bit units. So, the above message takes 17 7-bit spaces.
However, if I make a PL/SQL function that defines an nvarchar2(128) with the 128 standard characters and another nvarchar2(10) for the extended characters like the euro sign (the ones that take two 7-bit units), and I do an instr() for each character in the source string, the euro sign gets converted to an upside-down question mark, and because the delta (the first Greek character in the GSM 03.38 character set) also becomes an upside-down question mark, the function thinks that the euro sign is in fact a delta, and so assigns a length of 1.
To try to solve it, I created a table with an nchar(1) for the character and a smallint for the number of units it occupies. The characters are entered correctly, and show as euro signs and Greek letters, but as soon as I do a query, I get the same problem again. The code for the function is below:
function get_gsm_0338_length(
    text_content in nvarchar2
) return integer
as
    v_offset integer;
    v_length integer := 0;
    v_char nchar(1);
begin
    for i in 1..length(text_content)
    loop
      v_char := substr( text_content, i, 1 );
      select l
      into v_offset
      from gsm_0338_charset
      where ch = v_char;
      v_length := v_length + v_offset;
    end loop;
    return v_length;
    exception
      when no_data_found then
        return length(text_content) * 2;
end get_gsm_0338_length;Does anybody have any idea how I can get this to work properly?
Thanks,
- Peter

Well, the person there used a varchar2, whereas I'm using an nvarchar2. I understand that you need the right codepage and such between the client and the database if you use varchar2, which is exactly the reason why I used the nvarchar2.
However, if I call the function from /Java/, it does work (I found out just now). But this doesn't explain why SQL Developer and Toad are being difficult, and I'm afraid that, because this function is part of a much bigger application, I'll run into the same problem.

Flat file and encoding of euro sign

Hello,
I have a problem with a flat file which contain the euro sign. The file is encoding in ISO-8859-15.
I try to send the contain of the flat file in a DB2 database and it works fine. All characters are well encoding (é,è,û, ...) except for the euro sign.
When I execute the following request :
SELECT HEX(SUBSTR(FIELD,1,1)) FROM TABLE
where the first character of FIELD is the euro sign which is malformed, I get '80'.
In the topology, I tried with this :
jdbc:snps:dbfile&ENCODING=ISO8859_15
and this : jdbc:snps:dbfile&ENCODING=Cp1252
but the result is the same... :-(
Could you say me how to solve this problem please?

Sorry I did a mistake. I didn't considered the good topology...

Report Layout and Report Query APEX tables

Does anyone know a quick way to delete report layouts and report queries from the APEX tables that they are stored in. We currently have to go into the shared components area and delete them one by one using the builder. If we could just get the table that they are stored in and delete them by name, that would be extremely useful. Oracle does not support this type of data manipulation.
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi,
There are Top and Bottom – Left and Top and Bottom – Right.
I suppose that you have something wrong in the SQL Query or in the report.
Make a new report using the wizard. Then use Report Template – Standard and Top and Bottom – Left.

Report attributes - layout and pagination

When you set the pagination scheme to Row Ranges X to Y(with next and previous links), Number of Rows to 15 and Max Row count to 1000, I need to know what happens with the query. When the user selects the next (or previous) 15 records, does the region's query fire again and query all 1000 (or more) records?
I hope this makes since. I just need to know if the application is selecting all the records over and over as the user move through the report.
Thanks

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.
That is indeed the point I am trying to make.
My report is a SQL Query (PL/SQL Function body returning SQL Query) and is based on information provided in several PopUp LOVs. The more LOVs used, the more information provided to the WHERE CLAUSE, and therefore the less data returned to the screen.
When the End User produces a small report, they are likely to want to sort it.
But when they bring back huge amounts of data, they don't want it sorted. Especially not automatically sorted.
In most cases, this is happening when we are joining two or three tables with say 10 million rows on each table. The join condition is good (meaning there is not a Cartesian Product) but the resultant data is 10 million rows - something you not likely want to sort. Even with a limit on the number of rows returned (Report Attributes - Layout and Pagination - Max Row Count) to something reasonable, like 500, the 10 million resultant rows are first being sorted and then the first 500 returned.
So, yes, a "sort-enabled" report should NOT automatically sort. Which is what is happening.
Of course, it might be a good thing to have some sort of Variable that we could set on a page to decide if we want automatic sorting. On most pages, an automatic sort is great - as the amount of data returned will always be small.
On the pages where I have this problem, it would be great to do the automatic sort when one or more of the PopUp LOVs are populated. So, within a "After Submit" process I might want to turn automatic sorting on.
Hey, if we are going to ask for an enhancement/change, we might as well ask for something really flexible.

On transaction FBL3N report change layout and save layout icons not activ

Hi,
The object F_IT_ALV has a field, the activity ACTVT, which can
contain four permitted values: 01, 02, 03 and 70.
Activity 03 corresponds to the minimum authorization, which is the
most restricted one: You can only select layouts which have
been configured already. In particular, all of the other functions
named above are inactive with activity 03.
I guess that your user-id have set activity 03 for this object.
The SAP notes 374656 and 409190 are recommended.
So, if the values 01 and 02 are not included, then
the user can't change and save layouts.
For the line item display in FI the authorization
object FI_IT_ALV has been created as an extra security check in addi-
tion to the ALV authorization object S_ALV_LAYO.
Please check note 374656 where you should be able to find
relevant info about this. Also note 637554 should be helpful.

Aidan

Hi colin the card,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you purchased your device in a different country than the one you reside in and want to change the currency symbol typed from the keyboard. The article linked below will provide details about changing your MacBook Airs region and currency format.

How to change currency sign in report

How can I change the currency sign in report like from dollar to pound sign. Any help and advice will be highly appreciated.

Sherry,
I'm stumbling my way thru the same question. we need to print the currency symbol based on the country defined in the data. here's the not-so-short answer:
we're looking into storing the currency symbol as a unicode value (NVARCHAR2 field) in the database by country and linking it to the data selected in the report. I have a select statement in the report sql that retrieves the correct unicode value per data row. the question then seems to become: do i want to display the field as a number with a format mask, or convert the whole thing to a string/char value?
Keeping everything as a number, in the report format field Format Trigger, i create a mask for each field and call a function to do the following:
v_format := q'{(}' || q'{"}' || p_currency || q'{"}' || v_format || q'{)}';
this gives you a mask with the parenthesis for negative numbers, the currency as literal string, and the v_format (NN,NNN,NNN,NNN,NN0.00) for currency amounts. we vary the # of decimal places and pass that value into the function (just to make things complicated.)
the 'uber complex' version of the function converts the number field to a string/char value. this allows you to change the decimal and separator values for an individual data row. we have not decided to implement this, but it works. you have to enter a 'bogus' character field in the report format and use srw.set_field to change the value at runtime. this keeps the value as a number in the sql for math, but a char to display. complicated. the function does this...
          v_format := '999G999G999G990';
          v_decimalplaces := MOD((p_decimalplaces * 10),10);
          IF v_decimalplaces > 0 THEN
                         v_format := v_format || 'D';
               FOR i in 1..v_decimalplaces LOOP
               v_format := v_format || '9';
               END LOOP;
          END IF;
          CASE WHEN SIGN(p_value) >= 0
               THEN
                    v_format := p_currency || TO_CHAR(p_value, v_format, 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '',.'' ');
                    ELSE
                    v_format := '(' || p_currency || TO_CHAR(ABS(p_value), v_format, 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '',.'' ') || ')';
               END CASE;
we would pass the values of NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS to the function.
the last 'hitch' is that not every UNICODE currency symbol displays properly. the euro (hex 20AC) is fine, but the korean won (hex 20A9) is not. the database character set is AL32UTF8, and the sql works fine in sql_developer. however, reports does not reliably display the symbol. i have a TAR into oracle at the moment, hoping for clarification. there seem to be many layers in oracle reports to get this to work (database character set, report server character set, font in developer, font on report server, etc.)
let us know how it goes...an often asked, but rarely answered question (IMO). hopefully this gives you some ideas.
thanks,
john

Inverted question mark (¿) displayed insted of euro sign (€)

Hi folks,
when I'm trying to open an existing report (created and built on colleagues machine) in my Report Builder (v 10.1.2.0.2) instead of euro sign (€) is displayed inverted question mark (¿).
When I open this report with other machine, everything is fine. So it looks to me, that something is wrong with my machine - some settings.
I compared Regional and Language settings within Control Panel,in register NLS_LANG (AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252) - on both machines and it is the same.
What can cause this problem?
Many Thanks,
Tomas

Yes I have, I checked character codes on my machines.
I reinstalled Oracle forms and reports (10gR2) and after re-installation it is working fine. I have no idea what causes this problem.
Thanks,
Tomas

Error calling Report and unable to bind Report Server

Hi,
I use Oracle Database 10g with Oracle Developer 10.1.2, in Windows 2000.
I don't have nor use Oracle Application Server though.
I tried to call a report from a Form, using Run_Report_Object.
But the following error appeared.
Error FRM-41213 Unable to connect to Report Server rep_<computer_name>
I also tried to call a report, using Web.Show_Document.
It launch another web browser, but the following error occured
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep_<computer_name> failed
Based on the white paper of Oracle Application Server 10g - Integrating Oracle Reports in Oracle Forms Services applications.
I create my own report server using following command
rwserver server=repsrv.
Another java-based windows showed up. It shows that the server 'repsrv' is ready.
I do the following:
1. Navigate to http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet using web browser.
It showed OracleAS Report Services - Servlet Command Help page.
But there is no other window popup (The white paper stated that a 'in process' server
should be invoked when starting a report for the first time).
2. Navigate to http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?userid=PRACTICE/PRTC@MYDB&report=C:\PRACTICE\FORM\MODULE1.JSP&destype=cache&desformat=html&paramform=no&p_1=P1&p_1=P2
my schema is PRACTICE, password PRTC and database instance MYDB
the report path = C:\FORM\MODULE1.JSP
The following error occured
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep_<computer_name> failed
3. Finally, I tried
http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?server=REPSRV&userid=PRACTICE/PRTC@MYDB&report=C:\PRACTICE\FORM\MODULE1.JSP&destype=cache&desformat=html&paramform=no&p_1=P1&p_1=P2
The following error occured
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsrv failed
I don't understand.
It seems that the Report Service is not recognized although the java-based window state that the Report Server (repsrv) is ready.
My questions:
1. Does it means that my report server is not running?
Or it is running but the web browser didn't recognize it?
I use Internet Explorer 5 and Netscape 7, both of them showed the same error message.
2. The paper said there is supposed to be 2 type of server, 'In process' and custom server.
Both of them will create a configuration file in /reports/conf in DevSuiteHomeDirectory.
I can see the custom report server's configuration file which I create using rwserver
(repsrv.conf)
but I can't see the 'in process' server's configuration file (rep_<computer_name>.conf).
What am I supposed to do?
3. Is there any steps with I supposed to do after the installation?
Well, I didn't find any error during the installation, everything seems to be just fine.
Perhaps, I need to modify some files, specifya report server name,
create the 'in process' server manually.
Many thanks,
Imelda

Hi,
I have already tried your suggestion.
Since I am in Windows 2000 platform, so I do the first suggestion from the documentation.
If the host machine is not in a network (that is, it is a standalone machine).
Solution for Windows platform: Install the MS loopback adapter, as described on the Miscrosoft Web site (http:\\microsoft.support.com). Then, specify an IP address for your machine (either XP or Windows 2000), as follows:
1. On your desktop, right-click My Network Places, and choose Properties.
2. Right-click the MS loopback adapter, and choose Properties.
3. In the Properties dialog box, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and click Properties.
4. Select Use the following IP address, and enter a valid IP address. The subnet mask field will automatically populate. Do not use the local host IP (that is, 127.0.0.1). For example, enter: 198.162.1.1.
5. Click OK, and follow the instructions displayed.
There is also solution for UNIX platform.
But I do the Solution for Windows platform only.
But still I've got the following error message :
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep_<computer_name> failed
And in the command line of OC4J which I started, the following error appeared :
Not able to load oracle.reports.util.EnvironmentGlobal class
Using oracle.reports.util.Environment class
BTW,
I also tried to use the command lin rwrun :
rwrun report="D:\My Documents\TryReport\module1.jsp" userid=scott/tiger@orcl destype=file desformat=pdf desname="D:\My Documents\TryReport\module1.pdf"
And somehow a PDF file appeared.
It contains the output of the report I created.
It exactly the same as the preview of the web layout which is run from Report Builder (Run Web Layout CTRL-R).
Could this mean that the In-Process server is running?
Perhaps the browser did not understand how to connect to Report Server?
Is there anything should be done?
Should I also do the Solution for UNIX platform? (Mine is Windows)
And, why for Oracle Form (running as a servlet), everything seems to be normal?
Does the Oracle Form use different server from Oracle Report?
The problem is only when I tried to call report using a button inside Oracle Form.
(Run_Report_Object and Web.Show_Document)
Any light would be grateful.
Many thanks,
Buntoro
