ORacle reports 10g conditional formatting

ORacle reports 10g
Trying to hide a txt field without losing the line
If I hide the field depending on a condition, all lines below move up - I do not want this to happen
Any suggestions ?
XML is out of the question at this time on this report.

If possible, change the vertical elasticity of the item to 'Fixed'. If it is not feasible, then do you have any other items on left or right of the hidden item, which you do not hide? If you enclose all the items (including the item which is in question) within a frame. And change the line color of the frame to transparent. Vertical elasticity as 'Variable'. If that is also not possible, then create a boilerplate text (type . there), next to the item. Change the color of the '.' to white and font size to 2. So it is not visible. When item is hidden, '.' will be there and lines wouldn't move up.
Hope this helps.

How to get an effective EXCEL Spreadsheet as output for Oracle report 10g

Hi All,
I am a newbie in Oracle reporting. I am using 10g. I have an oracle report whose output format is PDF from the user interface. User asked for Spreadsheet output. I changed the JAVA CODE "desformat" = Spreadsheet and got the report in Excel. But this report is not as expected as it has many blank cells, misplacements etc and looks really ugly. so Is there anyway to get an excellent spreadsheet as output.
If anybody needs any more information on this, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much Marwim. Your suggestion is very helpful. But I have some other Oracle reports which have only one .rdf file giving output in both pdf and Excel. This doubt might be silly. Almost same features were existing for the rdf what I am working now. For the remaining reports, it was given that DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET , what this report lacks. I googled and found these links http://docs.oracle.com/html/B13895_01/orbr_paptoexcel.htm &
http://docs.oracle.com/html/B13895_01/orbr_paptoexcel.htm#CIHFDJAJ . But they are not intended for excel output. they generate only web layout in spreadsheet form. Could you please suggest any other ways to achieve this.
Thank you in advacne.

How to add Oracle Graphics 6i charts (OGD) to my Oracle Reports 10g

Hi,
Is there any possibility to add Oracle Graphics 6i Charts (.OGD) to Oracle Reports 10g
(OR)
If not possible, Can you please provide steps to migrate OGD to any format that is supported in Oracle Reports 10g.
Regards,
Swethan

Oracle Graphics and its OGD image format are no longer supported. Reports built with previous versions of Oracle Reports containing Oracle Graphics charts will continue to run in Oracle Reports 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) if the Oracle Graphics 6i runtime is installed on the same machine in a separate ORACLE_HOME. However, this is not a supported configuration, and Oracle will not fix bugs that result from this configuration.
Re-create all Oracle Graphics 6i objects using the Graph Wizard

How can i convert oracle report in excel format using 8i

hi,
I want to convert oracle report in excel format using 6i reports. please give the solution with emp table.
millons of thanks in advance.

You'll have to use the destype DELIMITEDDATA to render your Report in CSV format. Then set the mime type to Excel. I don't know the exact syntax, so please do a search in metalink for "reports excel" for examples and more info.

Oracle report 10g vs Oracle Forms 11g

Hi,
My application run on Oracle 10g with Oracle Forms&Report 10g
I have to modify a report file which was saved by oracle report 11g.
When I open the file with Oracle Report 10, I have the following warning : "Avertissement ! Ouverture d'un rapport enregistré avec une version plus récente. Risque de perte de fonctionnalité. Continuer ?" (translation : "The file opened was saved with a more recent version of Oracle Report. You may lose some information. Continue ?").
What kind of information I may lose ?
Can I modify my file on Oracle Report 11g and compile it in Oracle Report 10g ?
Or
Can I modify my file on Oracle Report 11g and compile it in Oracle Report 11g and run it on Oracle Report 10g ?
Thanks a lot.

Michel,
Question 1 - the file will no longer be useable with Reports 10g - you will loose everything.
Question 2 - No, newer versions of Oracle Forms and Reports are not backward compatible with older versions.
Question 3 - No, see answer to question 2.

Oracle Report in PDF format

Hi,
After upgrading from 11.5.7 to 11.5.10 Oracle Report in PDF format is not working(it was working fine in 11.5.7). When change output format to TEXT it working fine.
Please advise?
Thanks
Dave

Hi,
Perhaps it is not clear about what are the invalid characters its is showing.....is it showing asterisks.....Well if it does show anything like that then all u have to do is go and change the dimensions of the particular field in which it is showing such characters.......i mean u r to change the rdf file in Reports Builder.....and try changing the length and width by dragging the edges of the particular field and then save it and after that convert it into .xml and .rep files and then run it.

Is the Design in Character Units set to Yes?
How are you viewing your layout in report editor? Are you viewing with Grid?
If it is Yes and with grid, try to fit your layout objects within the Grid.

[Secure Configuration] Oracle Reports 10g Email Configuration...

Hi Everyone,
In oracle Reports 10g, we have an option of sending mail as an attachment using destype = mail and desname = [email protected] For this to happen we have to add the outgoing mail server name in the <report server>.conf file. Once we configure this setting, end-users can send any report to any mail-id. So, how to make an secured configuration so that they can send only those allowed reports?
Note: We have already many reports which are already deployed. So we cant incorporate the validation or some logic within the each report.

hello dsegard,
Thanks for you help. I tried the way which you had said. I have incorporated the security tag in the conf file and included the XMLSecurity Project( Deployed the JAR file and done necessary configuration). Now, I dont know how to use it.
Is there any alternative way for this? Is there any way that we can remove the default options provided by the Oracle Reports under the Destype?

Can we add Basic Authentication for Oracle Report 10g?

As we know, Apache supports basic Authentication, and Oracle Report 10g bases on Apache, that means Oracle Report 10g supports Basic Authentication too?
Can anyone tell me the steps on how to configure Basic Authentication for Oracle Report 10g?
Thanks for your help in Advance!
P.S.
I tried to add the following content to the file "httpd.conf" under the directory "E:\OraHome_2\Apache\Apache\conf\" (I installed report under this folder), but it doesn't work well:
<Directory "E:\OraHome_2\Apache\Apache\htdocs">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Private Documentation Repository"
AuthUserFile "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\mypasswd"
Require user yangsun
</Directory>

Difference between deploying oracle report in RDF format and REP format

Hi All,
Good Day!!!
We are frequently encountering report failures in our production environment with the error message "REP-1247: There exist uncompiled program unit(s)"
But the report executes successfully in the next try and the issue is intermittant. In production the reports are deployed in RDF format.
So in our test environment we tried of deploying the reports in REP foramat and we cant find any errors.
Is there Difference in deploying oracle report in RDF format and REP format?
Is there any diffence in execution?
Your inputs will be much appreciated!!!
Thanks in Advance,
JK

Hi,
REP is to RDF what FMX is to FMB, MMX is to MMB, etc.
Only difference here is that if you deploy RDF, not REP, then the RDF is compiled at runtime by Reports Engine and then executed. In other words, if REP is deployed then it is straightway execute.
That should explain all your observations.
Cheers.
PS: Please post Oracle Report queries on {forum:id=84} forum.

Invoke oracle report 10g from database pl/sql package

Hi
Is there a way that i can invoke an oracle report 10g from the database pl/sql package? I am working on a requirement that needs to generate a report when one of the criteria is not met.
Please suggest me on this.

Thanks for the info.
I have a scenario where i need to fetch members details like name , email address and so on from the mainframes on the oracle database. Then on the oracle database i need to check if they have a email address or not. If yes then i need to generate a notice and mail it to them. If they don't have an email address, i'll have to print that out in a some centralized location.
By the way, the notice was developed using oracle reports 10g.
Now i am developing a pl/sql package which will do the address validation but i didn't know how to call a oracle report to generate the notice in pl/sql procedure.
As suggested i will try with dbms scheduler and see if that works for me.
