Passing disablemail = yes to Reports from Forms

I am using Forms 4.5 and Reports 2.5 on windows nt 4. Basically, I would like to disable the menu button in the previewer. I read on Metalink that if I pass "disablemail ='Yes' that it would disable the button. Could someone look at my code and let me know what I am doing wrong. My parameter list passes all the other parameters correctly except the "disablemail" parameter. Both the button and the menu item are still enabled.
DECLARE
          REP_LIST PARAMLIST;
          LNAME VARCHAR2(20):='AGENCY';
          WHERE_SQL VARCHAR2(1000):='';
          FROM_SQL VARCHAR2(500):='';
          AL_ID ALERT;
          AL_BUTTON NUMBER;
          SITE_ID VARCHAR2(10) := '';
          ACODE VARCHAR2(20) := '';
Code where I add disablemail to the parameter list
ADD_PARAMETER(REP_LIST,'Disablemail',TEXT_PARAMETER,'Yes');
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'agency',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,REP_LIST,NULL);
Any help is appreciated

I think the metalink note specified Reports 3.0. Can you tell me if this is possible in Reports 2.5? Your help is appreciated.

Passing parameter list to Report from form

Hi all
How can I assign values that are written in a form, and haven't save to the database, into variables?
The form layout style is tabular, and it has two fields: parameter_name and parameter_value.
I want to assign the value the user wrote in the filed parameter_value for each row.
thanks

Hi,
if you built the tabular layout in a control block, then you can loop thorugh it using next_record; built-in. The value to read this is
variable_name := controlblock.parameter_name;
variable_value := controlblock.parameter_value;

PASSING PARAMETERS TO CRYSTAL REPORTS THRU FORMS!

Hi! all,
Is there someone who passed parameters to crystal reports from
forms 5.0?
The problem is when I call the report executable from the form,
its giving a login prompt again which is not desirable as @ this
stage the user has already logged in once. So is there a way to
pass this as a parameter to crystal or may be any better way???
Thanx for the solution,
Hima

Passing parameter to report from form using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT method

Will you please let me know how to do this. I tried using run_product but it is giving error as too many declarations. So I decided to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, but no help is provided how to pass paramters to this routine from FORMS to REPORTS.

If you just want to change the heading of a column dynamically, you can go with any of the two options. For both the options, you need to remove the static text and replace it with any dummy field (ensure the reference of field w.r. to repeating frame)
1. Use the Format Trigger and change the heading to either "school" or "college" based on your field value.
Ex.
If :<field_name> = 'S'
then :dummy_field := 'School'
Else
:dummy_field := 'College'
End If;
Return (true)
2. Another option is similar to this and uses a CF.
(I would prefer CF).
Warm Regards,
Raja.

Thank you for your replay.
The problem have solved.
This my step :

2. Install Jinit version 1.3.1.28.
3. Create report server
3. Compile form, report and pll
4. call report from from with this procedure :
PROCEDURE Call_Report (vFILENAME varchar2) IS
report_id                Report_Object;
ReportServerJob VARCHAR2(100);

Running report from forms

hi,
I am having problems in running report from form.
I am using oracle 9i on windows 2000 server and no 9iAS at the moment. On client side, i have windows xp and 9iDS installed. I want to run report from forms in 9iDS testing environment.
my forms are running ok but now i need to run report. so what i have done is that i have created a report object in form and following are enteries present in it at the moment.
Name REPORT7
FileName D:\Projects\IBMR\forms\soil_water_quality_data.rdf
Execution Mode Batch
Communication Mode Synchronous
Destination Type Cache
Report Server 9irep
and in when_button_pressed trigger
DECLARE
Report_Id REPORT_OBJECT;
Report_Job_Id VARCHAR2(20);
Report_Status VARCHAR2(80);
Report_Svr VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
Report_Id := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT7');
Report_Svr := '9irep';
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE, BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id,REPORT_FILENAME, '\projects\ibmr\forms\soil_water_quality_data.rdf');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id,REPORT_COMM_MODE, SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'PDF');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id,REPORT_OTHER, 'paramform=no');
Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id);
Report_Status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(Report_Job_Id);
WHILE Report_Status IN ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
Report_Status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(Report_Job_Id);
END LOOP;
IF Report_Status = 'FINISHED' then
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(Report_job_id,instr(Report_Job_Id,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=9irep','_blank');
else
message ('report server failed with error message '||report_status);
END IF;
END;
i have installed report server with following command
rwserver -install 9irep
i have changed entry in rwservlet.properties like
SINGLESIGNON=NO and i have removed the following entire block of 9irep.conf, which i have read from some documentation

i get the following error message when i run my form
frm-41214 Unable to run report
and then next message is
frm-41217 unable to get report job status
i debugged the report id and it is
9irep_0
returned by Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id);
When I checked the Report Queue Manager
it is showing status like
(9irep)Terminated with error
and detail it shows is
Unable to connect to the specified database.
Now I am wondering what to do next.
any suggestions???????

Hello,
From your description, it seems like the report is faling due to a database authentication problem. When you run your report from Forms, Forms internally passes the its database connection information to Reports automatically. So ensure that you are connected to a valid database in Forms, before the report is called.
Please verify whether a simple report which does not require a database connection, for example, a report containing only a boilerplate text object, is running correctly. Also, in the trigger code that you have specified, you should add the following:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id, REPORT_DESTYPE, CACHE);
so that the report output gets generated to the server cache, and can be retrieved using rwservlet/getjobid.
Thanks,
The Oracle Reports Team.

Invalid Id when i run reports from forms

I am using 8I and Developer 6.0.

Any help is appreciated
Thanks
Fadi

Hello fadi,
if you are still getting the problem, even when every thing is fine, just do this one, you replace with full absolute path in the place of report name when passing arguments to the run_product, i have the same problem initially but now its working hope this works, if still your problem exists, just try to build new report with default settings, it might be vauge, just try out some things work out in this way only.
have a nice day.

Calling Report From Form To Many Destinations

Hi
I am calling reports from forms using SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY and then run_report_object.
I dont know the destination until runtime of the report which is ok as I can pass this in via my procedure, but if that destination is many ie mail and file what is the best way to distribute the report?
I could call my procedure for each destination but that seems a bit unefficient since the report would be created many times, is there another way?

what about adding a drop-down-list near your report-button where you can choose the destination?
when you click the report-button you simply read the value selected in the drop-down-list and send it to your reports-server too.

CALLING A REPORT FROM FORMS (PROBLEM)

MY PROBLEM IS THE NEXT:
I CREATED A MASTER-DETAIL REPORT CALLING 'ASUNTOS'WITH THE NEXT QUERY:
SELECT ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_P,ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_M,ABOGADOS.NOMBRES,
ASUNTOS.EXP_INT,ASUNTOS.MATERIA,ASUNTOS.GERENCIA,
ASUNTOS.EMPRESA,ASUNTOS.RECLAMA,ASUNTOS.PESOS,
ASUNTOS.DOLARES
FROM ABOGADOS,ASUNTOS
WHERE ABOGADOS.FICHA = ASUNTOS.F_ABOG
AND ASUNTOS.F_ABOG = :ABOGADO ;
-- ABOGADO = PARAMETER.
THIS REPORT WORKS FINE THE PROBLEM IS WHEN I TRY CALL THIS REPORT FROM FORM I'VE USE A BUTTON(WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED) WITH THE NEXT CODE:
DECLARE
LISTA PARAMLIST := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
BEGIN
IF ID_NULL(LISTA) THEN
LISTA := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'PRINTER');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER,'LPT2');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'ABOGADO',TEXT_PARAMETER,TO_CHAR(:ASUNTOS.F_ABOG));
-- ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'YES');
END IF;
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'ASUNTOS',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,LISTA,NULL);
END;
BUT THE REPORT NOTHING DISPLAY.
THERE ARE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CODE IN THE BUTTON

Roberto,
Does your report work when it is not called from Forms?
try the following:
[TOOLS_HOME]\BIN\RWRUN60 module=ASUNTOS destype=screen userid=<username>/<password>@<tns> ABOGADO=<some_valid_code>
where TOOLS_HOME is the directory where Reports is installed.
I can see nothing wrong with your code.
Maybe some error in the query?
Also, I would check for the existence of multiple ASUNTOS report definitions. Maybe Forms is calling an older one.
Hope this helps,

Calling a report from forms with a paramter form

Hello,
How do you call a report from forms and get it to display the parameter form. Where you can then call the report using this parameter form. I have been using paramform=yes. but it simply runs the form.
I saw on a a thread ages ago that this was a sample of this available for download. Is this true?
thanks

Here is my code sorry about posting twice. Please note that the parameter list has been created as described.
report_id := find_report_object('MENU_REPORT_NODE');
Tool_Env.Getvar('ReportsServer', reports_server);
Tool_Env.Getvar('ReportsFolder', reports_folder);
dest_file := reports_folder || :global.username || '\' || rep_name || '.pdf';
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_FILENAME, rep_name);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_SERVER, reports_server);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_COMM_MODE, SYNCHRONOUS); -- wait for the report to finish
-- SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_DESNAME, dest_file);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_DESTYPE, cache);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_DESFORMAT, 'PDF');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id, REPORT_OTHER, 'paramform=yes' || ' ' || 'mode=bitmap');

I am running Forms 6i on the web and attempting to call me report via RUN_REPORT_OBJECT. I am getting the same error as Jenny FRM-92100. I need to pass a parameter list so I don't think I can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. Any ideas???
Thanks,

Dear Jenny,
I am running reports from Forms 6i on the WEB. I did not encounter your problem. Nevertheless I would like to share the following with you.
RUN_PRODUCT doesn't work for calling reports ON THE WEB. Instead using RUN_PRODUCT do the following:
1. Install Oracle Reports Server
2. For WEB calls of reports use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
3. Learn how to pass parameters to the reports. It is a litlle bit strange, but it is explaint excellent in the documentation to the Reports Server.
I hope this will help you.
