Lowercase first letter in column name of non-interactive report

I have a report from this query:
SELECT DISTINCT
v.isotope, v.location,
v.activity_in_ucuries as "uCi"
FROM inventory v
where v.location = 'IN PROCESS'
and v.activity_in_ucuries > 0
Note 'as "uCi"' - when the report displays the lowercase u is displayed as an uppercase U
In the column attributes , I have set the column heading as lowercase. In the report attributes I have Heading Type set as custom
and the column heading shows lowercase. I have also tried using the a heading type of Column Names. With all of these changes the
report still comes out with an uppercase U.
Is there a way to prevent the automatic set of the first letter to Uppercase or alternatively, force the first letter to lowercase?
Thanks
Donna

I am using theme 13. I don't have any experience changing the templates, so the report template has the following in Column Headings:
<th#ALIGNMENT# id="#COLUMN_HEADER_NAME#" class="t13ReportHeader">#COLUMN_HEADER#</th>
Can I make a change in here to prevent the transformation of the 1st character to uppercase? (I would also love to change the u to mu!)
I do have a test application in theme 3 that seems to preserve whatever case I enter it in...I suppose I can change themes, but I would like to stick with theme 13 if possible.
Thanks for any additional help.

Lowercase first letter in column name of non-interactive report..Again

A couple of days ago a posted a question on how to make the column name in a non-interactive report
come out as lowercase. (original post: Lowercase first letter in column name of non-interactive report
I am using Theme13, which is probably the only theme that forces the first letter
of a column name in a report to uppercase.
Anyway, I received several responses including the answer which I applied to my page.
Then I went back to make the column sortable and that negates the CSS override and
the first letter in the column name is back to uppercase...arrrggghhh!
Are there any further suggestions on how to force this to lowercase with theme 13 and a sortable column?
Thanks
Donna

Hi,
Try style to page HTML header
th.t13ReportHeader,th.t13ReportHeader a:link,th.t13ReportHeader a:visited{
text-transform:none!important;

Column name change in Interactive Reports

Hi,
I am new to Interactive reporting. We have a report that is resulted from Essbase query. Now in the report, we want to change the column names which are basically the essbase dimension member name. Is it possible to chang ethe names per our requiremnet?
Please help.

Hi again,
I think that you may have posted your question in the wrong forum. This one is for Oracle Application Express and maybe that is the reason why you didn't understand my response. If your issue involves Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio or Hyperion reporting in general then you should ask in this forum instead:

Non-Interactive Report Break Formatting

I have a non-interactive report that is very large and I am trying to use break formatting to provide subtotals. It works, but is quite ugly. Can anyone tell me where I might find a list of the various substitution strings that can be used for controlling the appearance of the breaks? For example, right now when it breaks for a change in "Payor Name", the subtotal row is labeled "Total for Payor Name". It would be much friendlier if the row label said "Total for Aetna" when Aetna is the Payor Name and "Total for Cigna" when the Payor Name is Cigna, etc. For example
[Parent Name|http://ndhoast.tsh.mis.mckesson.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=123:75:720425469268847:fsp_sort_1_desc::RP&fsp_region_id=27444927281350588|Sort by this column] [Payor Name|http://ndhoast.tsh.mis.mckesson.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=123:75:720425469268847:fsp_sort_2::RP&fsp_region_id=27444927281350588|Sort by this column] ClaimType ST [RH Payor ID|http://ndhoast.tsh.mis.mckesson.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=123:75:720425469268847:fsp_sort_5::RP&fsp_region_id=27444927281350588|Sort by this column] [Naic/EmdPayor Id|http://ndhoast.tsh.mis.mckesson.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=123:75:720425469268847:fsp_sort_6::RP&fsp_region_id=27444927281350588|Sort by this column] LOC TRX [TRX Count|http://ndhoast.tsh.mis.mckesson.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=123:75:720425469268847:fsp_sort_9::RP&fsp_region_id=27444927281350588|Sort by this column] [TRX Dollar Amt|http://ndhoast.tsh.mis.mckesson.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=123:75:720425469268847:fsp_sort_10::RP&fsp_region_id=27444927281350588|Sort by this column]

This has been an area in need of some attention for quite a while, in my opinion.
Re: Formatting of Reporting Totals
Re: Report Break Formatting
I've just looked at 3.2, and the help messages are the same – not at all helpful – ones I remember from 1.6.
I'm seem to recall this was raised on one of the enhancement request threads, but it doesn't seem to have been touched...

Default Style Column Breaking in an Interactive report

In a normal SQL report there are two types of column break formatting:
1) Default Breaking Format e.g.
aaa 123
456
bbb 789
123
2) Repeat Headings e.g.
aaa
123
456
bbb
789
123
Interactive reports seem to only implement Repeat Headings . Is it possible to break columns in an IR report using "Default Breaking Format"? If so how?
thanks

⋮For number/date columns to be properly sortable, the leading edge of the column must be an HTML comment that provides the required sort order using character semantics, as shown here.
The Display As column attribute for such columns must be set to Standard Report Column.
This method has side effects: some IR filters won't work; aggregate calculations can't be applied to the column; and report exports contain the HTML rather than the expected value.
Other approaches involve using Dynamic Actions/jQuery/JavaScript, or using the built-in highlight as suggested above, then saving the highlighted report as the default.

I simply want to change the color of the text depending on whether a column has a value (eg. Error or Problem).

Oracle 10g - Defining the column name in Non English

Hi Experts,
I have an exisitng application which is developed on Windows using ASP Technology and uses Oracle 10g 10.1.0.2.0.
The application is supported with an instance of Data Base within which multiple tablespaces are created for different clients. The application is developed in such a way that some of the tables arecreated dynamically and the columns are named using the data entered through the UI.
This application needs to be globalized now. The problem is, the column name entered through the UI can be in any language based on the client's settings and those values in turn will be used for naming the columns in the tables.
1) Can I have the column names to be named using non english characters in Oracle 10g DB? If so,
1.1) what should I do to configure the exisiting Oracle instance to support it?
1.2) To what level is that configuration possible, is it per DB instance level (or) can it be done at Tablespace level. I would like to configure each tablespace to host tables with columns defined with different languages, say for example, tablespace 1 will have tables with Japaenese column names and tablespace 2 will have tables with German column names?
2) What should I do to make my entire DB to support unicode data i.e., to accept any language strings. Currently all strings are declared as VarChar2, should I change all VarChar2 to NVarChar2 (or) is there a way to retain the VarChar2 as is and make some database wide setting?
Please note that I do not have an option of retaining the column in English as per the Business Requirement.
Envionment:
OS - Windows 2003 32 bit
Oracle 10g 10.1.0.2.0
UI forms in ASP
TIA,
Prem

1. Yes, you can.
SQL> create table ÜÝÞ( ßàá number(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert into ÜÝÞ values (10);
1 row created.1.1 and 1.2 and 2. You can choose UTF as your default character set. It allows the user of non-English characters in VARCHAR columns in your whole database. It is not per tablespace.
SQL> create table ÜÝÞ( ßàá varchar2(100));
Table created.
SQL> insert into ÜÝÞ values ('âãäçìé');
1 row created.

Count a distinct column value in an interactive report

Hi,
I'm struggling with this and would appreciate any pointers.
I have built a view here:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11189:1
The report can have duplicate column values. I'm tying to find a way using the interactive report functionality (i.e. without modifying the underlying SQL) to count a distinct column value. For example, in the example following the link I'd like to be able to count the unique customer_ids and return 7.
This may be fundametally impossible depending on the way the SQL is generated for the interactive reports. If this is the case can anyone confirm this?
Many thanks
Yog.

"Not modifying views is fair enough. But not wrapping a SELECT around them? Really? Why? And as I said, that's imposible, the IR already does it."
This is not a problem. However for the IR's it's a development decision to keep all reported columns ( and analysis on these columns ) as a seperate development process to be controlled centrally by a seperate team. The point to remember is that the app looks at hundereds of views and it was decided that modifying each report to fit each instance would become cumbersome to manage and to put it simply there are not the resources to do it.
again, I'm not here to justify any of that!
SELECT *" ? Every single time? Even when you want to populate a LOV with some names
No just the Reports. It is a very very simple app; a big list an a page for each report.
"I think you should always ask what you want, not less, not more"
I agree, and that should include select * from view.
"Why fetch data you don't want to see"
Some users will want to see some data from the view and other users will want to see other data, Over the whole user base someone somewhere will want to see all of it.
 Actually, there is something good in this, in the future, when you will be asked to check and try to improve the load time of some page, here is the first place where you should look
Brilliant! Like it!!
Does it by any chance fetch a bunch of 20 meg LOBS and then discards them
No, Thankfully a few varchar2 columns and a lot of numeric columns, nothing huge. The reports are acutally pretty fast at the moment...

How to hide some column filter operators in Interactive Report

Hi,
I have an APEX 4.2 application what includes Interactive Report page.
Is there possibilty to hide or disable some filter operators in column filter?
But I don't want to disable all filter functionality for end users.
For example how to hide/disable operator "matches regular expression".
Some filter operators are too complicated for end users.
I have searhced but not found solution.

Erkki

I wouldn't really recommend this. Users will quickly recognise what works for them and avoid options that they do not currently understand. However, over time—through training or advice from more experienced users—they may come to understand and use all of the available features. Blocking access (especially in a non-standard way) to options that users may eventually need is likely to result in unnecessary development work now and at some (possibly inconvenient) time in the future.
That said, this really isn't difficult to implement using CSS. Use your browser web inspector to identify which filter types are to be blocked, using the value attribute of the filter Operator select list in the generated IR HTML. For example, in APEX 5.0 a filter operator select list looks like:
<select id="R70597672218719366505_STRING_OPT" class="a-IRR-operator" data-column-type="STRING" title="Operator" name="p_ignore_10" size="1">
<option value="=">=</option>
<option value="!=">!=</option>
<option value="is null">is null</option>
<option value="is not null">is not null</option>
<option value="like">like</option>
<option value="not like">not like</option>
<option value="in">in</option>
<option value="not in">not in</option>
<option value="contains">contains</option>
<option value="does not contain">does not contain</option>
<option value="regexp_like">matches regular expression</option>
</select>
The "matches regular expression" option has the value regexp_like, so the required CSS rule using the IR operator select list class and an attribute selector on the option value is:
.a-IRR-operator option[value="regexp_like"] {
display: none;
Additional selectors for other filter types can be added to this rule as required, for example:
.a-IRR-operator option[value="regexp_like"],
.a-IRR-operator option[value="is not null"] {
display: none;
to eliminate the "is not null" filter.
To implement this for all IRs in your application, create a custom CSS style sheet containing the rule, upload it to your workspace, and reference it in all of the page templates used for IR pages.
This is not a 100% foolproof solution. CSS is not an appropriate way to implement security restrictions. A web-savvy user could use their web inspector to disable the CSS rule and access the blocked filter(s). However there is little risk here as (1) it appears that your users will lack the required expertise; and (2) doing so will only allow them to further filter data they already have access to.

Add line break in name of an interactive report computed field

I have a computed field in an IRR and need the name of this field to be broken into 2 lines. In regular columns I can add "br" right in the column attributes but if I use that in the computed field name, the HTML "br" actually shows up in the field name. How can I do this?

Here is a threa dealing with a nowrap issue for an IRR, try making the nowrap setting in the css a wrap and see what happens..

How to highlight break column data in an interactive report?

Relates to an interactive reports V4.x :
In the break column area in an IR report, the labels and data seem to be very vanilla and hard to distinguish particularly if you break on more than one column. When I move a non-break column with a highlight defined (set on cell) into the break position, the highlighting disappears.
Is it possible to somehow retain the highlight colour on break column data?
Any hints?
thanks in advance

Thank you

Newly added column not displayed in Interactive report

Hello,
I have a tableA with 3 columns.In the application i am displaying as Form with Report region as Interactive report(Oracle 10g Application Express 3.2).
I added one column to tableA.Now when i am refreshing the report by adding that column in the select query,the new added column is not displayed in the application.
How can i do this so that the added column can be displayed.I dont want to delete the whole thing and redo it again.
Thanks
Siya

Hi Siya,
The Interactive Report will not show you the newly added columns by default. You have to select those columns from the actions menu and when all the required fields are displayed then save it as the default report.
Then you will be able to see all the columns.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks,
Satish.

Can i have more than 6 columns to sort in interactive reports in apex 4.1?

As of now on clicking on Actions->format->sort only a select list with six columns is displayed in an interactive report . Is there any possibility to add more number of columns in this ? Can anyone help?

Hey there. WELCOME to the world of Macintosh. You are in for a great ride with this machine and platform.
Some good news for you regarding cameras. The neat thing about iPhoto, and indeed, the Mac, is that there is no setup required for hooking your camera to iPhoto. In fact, ANY camera you plug into the Macintosh that it recognizes will automatically work with iPhoto!
I regularly use three different cameras with my iPhoto application. As soon as I plug into the USB port and power on my camera, the Mac figures out that it needs to start up iPhoto. iPhoto figures out how to talk to the camera, and gives me the option to import pictures from the memory card... no configuration, no extra software to install. I do this with a Canon camera, and two different Sony models.
It's painless!
