Need Greek language on oracle report

Hi,
I digged up a lot of stuff on how to get a report to be displayed in diffrent languages.
I tried a lot of stuff, change font setting to Greek in Oracle Report Builder , still this doesn't show greek characters ,
for example,
έγγραφο μεταφοράς
(Ths english equivalent for the above text is 'transfer document')
This field is read from a DB.
In the DB we are able to store it in the greek language itself,
έγγραφο μεταφοράς
So, now when I run the report, on the paper layout which is generated,
i get this ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ instead of the έγγραφο μεταφοράς
Any one can help me out.. with this..
if you could point to some link where there are steps , I can follow the same..
Thanks..

An additional quote string ' character with the number field will solve this problem but if u want to display this field in report then it will look ugly
'''||yourfield from table; check ur regional settings also
plz mark it helpful correct if it is

  • Word and oracle reports

    I want to print a report along with a word document embedded in that. When i print the report and the embedded word document i am getting the print of oralce report and only one page of word document, rest part of the word document is not getting printed. My requirement is that i need to print the oracle report along with full word document, which is embedded.
    If i double click the embedded word document on the report, it opens in a new window and i can give seprated print there. But i dont want the user to do that. In a single click both the oralce report and full word document should be printed.
    Thanksm,
    sekhar

    Frank,
    Is there any work around for this to do this task. We had two options in mind
    (1) Running a batch file which will print the document as a background process. But this will work fine if the printer is a local printer, i mean gives problem when the printer is in network.
    (2) Calling a DLL from PL/SQL. This options i bit tedious because we need write some code for this and that tooo this option has some limitations.
    Do u have any ideas for this.
    Thanks,

  • How to install Oracle Report Services in Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1

    My project is running on Oracle Application Server(OAS) 10.1.3.1, and I need to develop some Oracle Reports for my client.
    But I find out there is not "Oracle Report Services" component in OAS 10.1.3.1 like OAS 10.1.2.
    Is there Oracle Report Services for OAS 10.1.3.1? How to get it?

    Max Yuan wrote:
    You mean I need to install 2 OAS(10.1.2 for report, 10.1.3 for my project), or deploy my project to 11g? For the Reports reporting project, you'll need a version/edition that includes AS Reports Services.
    In "10gr2" that means AS 10.1.2.0.2 (plus Patch set): AS Infrastructure + AS BI&Forms installation (enterprise edition) or the standalone Forms and Reports installation (EE or separate licensing). You also need the Developer Suit (Reports Builder). OFM "11gr1" suite has some version of Reports Services but I don't know the available packages and installation types.

  • Help needed for MySQL 5 database DSN less connection with Oracle reports

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle Develper Suite and java (J2EE) for my application. I am using MySql 5 as database tool. I want to use Oracle reports of Oracle Develper suite. I have created some reports by first creating system DSN for MySql database and then connect Oracle reports to that DSN by "jdbc:odbc" connection string provided in Oracle Report developer wizard. This is working fine.
    I want to generate reports without creating system DSN (DSN less) so that i can use my application on any computer without creating DSN for Oracle Reports. I am deploying my application on OC4j as "EAR" file.
    Help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
    Regards.

    Using an 8i client, you will need to configure the tnsnames.ora file with appropriate connection information if you are using local naming. If you are using host naming or something like an Oracle Names server to resolve TNS aliases, you can skip the tnsnames.ora configuration. A default installation of the Oracle client, though, will probably be using local naming.
    If the tnsnames.ora file is configured, or you have configured an alternate way of resolving TNS aliases, you should be able to use the connection string
    DRIVER={Oracle ODBC Driver};DBQ=<<TNS alias>>;UID=system;PWD=managerIf you wanted to move to the 10g client (the 10g Instant Client could be useful here), there are some streamlined naming methods that could be used instead of configuring the tnsnames.ora file.

  • Need to solve serious security problem with Oracle Reports URL

    As mentioned repeatedly on this forum, Oracle Reports allows serious security breaches that allow users to see reports that they did not generate -- it's easy to guess a legal URL by changing the getjobid parameter.
    I've reviewed the JavaDocs to part of the rwrun.jar file and reviewed some of the example report plugins. This shows promise in helping to solve this security problem but critical pieces are missing.
    1) The javadocs are accurate for only 10g (9.0.4) but not correct for 10g (10.1.2+), which we are currently using. I need access to the updated version of this javadoc.
    2) Even with the updated version of the JavaDoc, I haven't found a class from which to inherit that would give me the opportunity to generate random jobid values, which then would effectively prevent users from guessing other jobid values, and thereby gaining access to other's reports (which in our cases, may contain sensitive information.
    3) We have found that we can send the parameter=value of EXPIRATION=1 which helps protect such information, but this requires that every program which invokes a report be modified to add this parameter. It would be far better for the report server to be configured to use a java class we write that inherits from some rwrun.jar class that would by default, add the EXPIRATION=1 parameter.

    Hi,
    Thanks for our replies. I will ask to an administrator about this security problem, now I know it depends of a security parameter.
    But I would know if it could be possible to hide the technical name of the query in the url. It could improve the security level of our reports in a first time in this way.
    Thanks a lot,
    JW.

  • Stand alone oracle report - need help asap

    Hi,
    We are in ORACLE Apps 11i. We started using ORACLE BI Publisher to create templates for the Oracle Reports. How we are doing reports now is
    1) create data definition XML which has all the queries embedded.
    2) Create Data definition in XML Publisher Admin responsibility.
    3. Attach the Data definition XML to that.
    4. Create a concurrent program definition for the report with XML Type and run the report and save the data file with tags.
    5. Create the template ,rtf in Word and export data using ORACLE BI Publisher. 6. Create template definition in the XML Publisher Admin responsibility and attach this .rtf to that and run the report.
    Now I have a requirement stating that the REPORT SHOULD BE AN ORACLE STAND ALONE REPORT AND THE REPORT NEEDS TO BE RUN THROUGH CONCURRENT PROGRAM SCREEN. I am planning on doing the following steps.
    1. I have to create an .rdf using report builder.
    2. Create concurrent program executable and definition for the report.
    3. Create data definition in XML Publisher admin responsibility.
    4. Run the report in apps.
    5. Create the tempalte .rtf in word and export data with the XML Data file with tags,
    6. Run the report.
    Am I correct? Any help is appreciated asap.
    Thanks
    Akil

    You said,
    standalone report ?? is that mean without using bipublisher ??
    1st method.
    create concurrent program, output xml,
    create data template, create datadefintion , attach Datatemplate.
    run the cc pgm, get xml, design RTF , create template definition , attach RTF,
    run the cc pgm, you get the pdf output.
    2nd method.
    create rdf,
    create concurrent program, output xml,
    run the cc pgm, get xml, design RTF ,
    create datadefintion , create template definition , attach RTF,
    run the cc pgm, you get the pdf output.
    , both requires, cc pgm, rtf, data defintion , template definition.
    only differnece is , how do you get the data, i mean, xml...
    data template or RDF.

  • For Persian Language show wrong (generated by Oracle Report Server)

    Hi,
    When Oracle Report Server (10.1.2) Generate PDF output show persian characters wrong.
    persian language(Use in Iran , Azarbayjan , Tajikestan ,... ) has 4 characters more than Arabic (cp1256) . this 4 characters is (پ  ,ژ,گ,ج) .
    when come (this characters ) in duration word appear a space  between word.
    for example word is پشتو But show in PDF پ شتو .
    in HTML format we don't has this problem only accrue in PDF output .
    This Persian characters :
    U 067E PEH
    U 0686 TCHEH
    U 0698 JEH
    U 06A9 KEHEH
    then now i dont know this problem related to Oracle report server or Acrobat Reader viewer ?
    when we copy پ شتو of Arcobat reader and paste to windows notepad show correctly (پشتو ).
    i think this is relare to /Encoding /WinAnsiEncoding insite pdf file becouse :
    Windows code page 1252(Arabic encoding) but Persian is 1256 , often called the “Windows ANSI”
    encoding. This is the standard Windows encoding for Latin text in
    western European languages.
    Please help me how i can solve this problem ASAP.

  • Need guidline to attach Date picker in Oracle report

    I need to take the input from the date picker in oracle report (in runtime parameter form). Pls. help me if any one can

    Do not use the built in parameter form, but create your own. If you are calling Reports from Forms, create a Form where you can enter the parameters. For the date parameter, you can create the Forms field with a date picker.
