Margin Bug in CF8 Report Builder???

Build: 193563
When I set my left and right margins to .50 inches the generated report comes out with a .25 inch margin left and .75 inch right. After a couple of hours searching the web for a solution and playing with various combinations of margins, I changed my margins to .49 inch left and .51 inch right and the report is much closer to centered on the page.
Is this in fact a bug in Report Builder CF801? Is there something I'm missing or should I look somewhere else for answers?

This problem appears to be fixed in build 181436 of the
Report Builder

Does CF8 Report Builder work with CF7?

Title says it all. I have CF7 and I recently uninstalled CF7
Report Builder. I saw CF8 Report Builder on the adobe downloads
page and wondered if it works with CF7 (minus the new features of
CF8).

Hi Tarun,
The runtime distribution packages are for licensed users who have developed an application. As long as your app is for internal use only then there are no extra fee's. However if you are selling or installing your application outside of your company then please contact our Sales team to purchase a one time deployment license package.
As for making CR 2008 runtime work on and in 64 bit OS's, it won't happen. CR 2008 is 32 bit only. Next version of CR has both 32 and 64 bit runtime but it's currently beta only and should not be installed in a live production system.
Your other options are to use VS .NET 2008 and CR 10.5 runtime which does have a 64 bit runtime package but is limited as to which database types you can connect to and export types you can export the report to.
Thank you
Don

Dynamically passing text and url-based images as an input parameter to cf8 report builder

I'm unsuccessfully trying to dynamically pass text and url-based images to a group footer or the detail section via an input parameter or even hardcoded. The field has the attribute 'XHTML Text Formating' set to True. The following are failed samples of a simplified value:
"<img height=’300’ alt=’Document’ width=’300’ src=’http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif’ />"
or
"<img src=’http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif’ />"
This just results in the above text being output. The end result would have various text and images from a database as input by a user, thus the reason I cannot just use the hyperlink information attribute as I could if it were a single known image. I tried rtf and pdf report types. Ideas?

HTH,
Thanks. I'll keep that in mind, although I don't know how many images my user might need or what sizes so that might be tricky.
Since my target output is rtf so that MS Word can be used to edit the result, I added a pagebreak to a MS Word doc and used the resulting html source to replace the rich text editor source code for the page break, but that did not help either. The page break was so a user could add an image later. Something is wrong with the Report Builder related to intepreting XHTML, especially anything that has an attribute, including URL-based image links. I hope they try to provide another update before CF9. I doubt my client will be going to CF9 for some time, since they are just completing the migration to CF8.

CF8 Report Builder duplicates subreport parameters

I am experiencing this problem running Report Builder under
Windows XP:
1. Create a report.
2. Create a subreport that has input parameters.
3. Add the subreport to the primary report and define
subreport parameters.
4. Save and close both files.
5. Reopen the primary report file.
6. Look at the list of subreport parameters for the linked
subreport
I routinely find that in this scenario, any subreport
parameter that I originally defined has been duplicated, such that
if I started with:
varOne - #query.foo#
varTwo - #query.bar#
Upon reopening the primary report and insepcting the
subreport paramaters list I will see:
varOne - #query.foo#
varTwo - #query.bar#
varOne - #query.foo#
varTwo - #query.bar#
Which causes errors when I attempt to run the report.
What's the patch schedule for report builder?

version" (whatever that means) HTML?

How to Print Margin of subsequent template (Report Builder 6.05.32.0)

My report consists of 3 parts, part A, B and C. Each part is of different style. Therefore I use 3 templates, each for each style. Part A appears first, then B and C.
Part A (based on template A):
- Top margin is printed
Part B (based on template B):
- Only printed if part A has NO bottom (template) margin
- NO top (template) margin is printed
Part C:
- Again, NO top (template) margin is printed
- the whole part is not printed if part B is long
- NO bottom (template) margin is printed
Anyone has the same problems ? , got the solution and donot mind sharing ?.
I'd appreciate if some Oracle report expert out there share with me the report code using different templates.
Thanks

There is problem that I must resize all variants of pages and set field to exact place and this is difficult ...

Reports Builder has encountered a problem and needs to close.

Hi All,
The report builder in my system is behaving weirdly. If I open a report, which is having a normal browser output, it allowing me to see the data model, layout model and everything. And if I open a report, which is having a PDF output, it's not allowing me to open the Layout.
Here the output is in context of Oracle Applications front-end. And as I know it shouldn't be a problem with Report Builder.
It errors out with the following message.
Reports Builder has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
And the error report contains the following message.

I have tried reinstalling the software a minimum of 10 times, but no luck. At last I got my system formatted and tried. For the first time it worked for me, then I installed Forms Builder... then again I am getting the same problem even though I have different homes for Reports and Forms.
Is it problem with my system or the Operating System or the version of the Oracle Developer?
Can anyone please help me out?
Thanks in advance,
Lakshman.

Bug in PDF generation with Report Builder CF8

Hello
there is a bug in the calculation of the left margin of a
page.
I upgraded from MX 7.02 to CF8. My "old" Reports worked fine,
but when I export them to PDF an print them the left margin is
different.
I'm using metric settings in the Report Builder. I created a
new Report with Left Margin 2 cm and a single Field with the left
Property = 1 cm (0.9879 cm). The printed paper with these poperties
where fine. I could measure appoximatly 3cm . But if I use Report
Left Margin = 1.27 cm and Field left Property = 0.35cm. The left
margin of the printed paper is only 1.1cm.
So it depends on the choosen Values of report left margin and
the left property of a field.
Does anybody else have the same problem?

I found this posting as I have now "rediscovered" this issue. I came to the same conclusion - edit ALT TEXT for every image.
However, I think it is confusing that these paths of image file are not considered Personal Information that can be removed using the Inspect Document feature (I tried - was not successful). The list of things to be removed using this wizard is quite extensive
- and some of them less visible than these file paths.
It would be interesting to know if this is going to change with future updates of Word. Why is an ALT TEXT included at all per default? I think using the file path in ALT TEXT should be made optional. Is there a way to turn off this default embedding of
the full path?
As the OP I also used Office 2013 on Windows 7 64bit.

Date Bug in Report Builder

Hi guys,
Problem / Bug
i have a very simple layout report on scott.emp table. i passes two parameters throught parameter form.
i have assigned the data type as well as the initial value.
Report paremeter form takes and on message shows a date which has not been mentioned / assigned any where. like (01/02/3021).
after parameter form having few conditions like if dates are blank then parameter P1 Gets first condition else it gets the second one.
but report builder runs the first condition each time what ever you do with it.
mean this is joke with a developer.
i have re-installed the developer6 no of times and also used tips from fellows to get the right results.
anyway i will appreciate if some body could resolve this problem.
Regards,
Kamal

Just a couple of things you could look at:
1) Is P1 null. In PL/SQL, equality comparisons against any null value will always return FALSE. You need to directly compare against null - "if (:p1 is not null)/if (:p1 is null)"
2) P1's format mask. If the input format mask is something like: 'YYYY' then the date will show up as '01-JUL-YYYY' regardless of the date you gave it (or subsequently set it to in the PL/SQL).

Bug in Report Builder

We are facing a problem with Oracle Developer Report Builder
6.0.5.28.0 . The Problem is as Follows.
When we print a report from the previewer of a
character mode report it is giving a GPF error and we are
unable to print the
Report but if the report is in Bitmap then it works
properly. The same character mode report if printed as
Detination
'Printer' then it prints properly.
When debugged using a VC++ Debugger we get the following
error
' Unhandled Exception RWRBE60.EXE(CORE40.DLL) ;
OXC0000005; Access Violation; and the system hangs.
Because of this we a facing a delay in the Release of Our
Product to our customers.
Requesting you to the needful and send me details
regarding this .

Oracle Report Builder Bugs

If the JSP file generated by Report Builder contains the statement,
<systemParameter name="DESTYPE" initialValue="Screen" display="yes"/>
you will receive the following error message when you try to run the report in Web Layout:
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: REP-56092: No class defined for destination type Screen
I found the only solution to be to remove the offending statement, or set its display parameter to no. (The statement can be found in the JSP file under the <data> tag.)
This statement displays the Runtime Parameter Form dialog which is intended only for Paper Layouts. Seems as if Report Builder is reading a Paper Layout statement from the JSP file when it is executing a Web Layout command.
Another minor problem occurs when you open a report and attempt to display it in Web Layout before connecting to the database. When the Connect dialog appears, the mouse pointer remains as an hour glass.
The Report Builder came packaged with Oracle Developer Suite 10g, but the Report Builder's Help About shows version 9.0.4.2.0. However, I noticed that other copies of Oracle Developer Suite 10g came packaged with Report Builder version 10g. I can't say whether the above problems apply to these later versions of Oracle Builder or not.

Hi,
There's a dedicated forum for Oracle Reports and I would suggest you to post your questions there to get answered by those who are experienced in Oracle Reports.
I did work with Oracle Reports a long time ago, so as I remember, you have to create a link between colb and colc fields. When colb is null then this link will pull over colc and print it in place of colb.
Hope this helps.
