Pdf file view in report builder 10g

I store pdf file in database 10g using webutil_doc form ,now I need to view this file in report builder 10g is it possible

By all means feel free to post your question as often as you like!
In webforms DDE runs on the middle tier; it might do what you want against your local OC4J now, but it surely won't open a thing when you run it against an application server.
Maybe you should enlighten us with your requirement, maybe there is a better solution for your problem.
cheers

Generating .pdf file from Reports Builder 10g

Hi,
I made a report in Reports Builder 10g and every label and field I set, but when I print the report throw reports builder field are displaced randomly, i.e. they are not where I set them in paper layout. In print preview everything is OK, but when I print it everything(fields) is in the mess. Please help.

APEX doesn't output PDF natively, so you have to use an external report server for this. There's a link on apex.oracle.com entitled PDF Printing that discusses the options.

Using DDE package in report builder 10g

Hi,
I use this code in form 10g to edit a ms word and its work properly:
DECLARE
APPID PLS_INTEGER;
CONVID PLS_INTEGER;
DOCID PLS_INTEGER;
SYS_DATE CHAR(8);
BEGIN
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MM/DD/YY') INTO SYS_DATE FROM DUAL;
APPID := DDE.APP_BEGIN('C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\WINWORD.EXE',
DDE.APP_MODE_MINIMIZED);
CONVID := DDE.INITIATE('WINWORD','SYSTEM');
DDE.EXECUTE(CONVID,'[FileOpen "c:\bin_test\exp.dotx"]', 10000);
DOCID := DDE.INITIATE('WINWORD','c:\bin_test\exp.dotx');
DDE.POKE(DOCID,'BOOKMARK1', SYS_DATE,DDE.CF_TEXT,10000);
DDE.EXECUTE(DOCID,'[FileSaveAs "c:\bin_test\output.doc"]', 10000);
DDE.TERMINATE(CONVID);
END;
when I put this code in the afterreport trigger in report builder 10g and call the report from form;
a blank document word is opened withoud any changes as well as the report result in pdf format.
what can i do to let this code work in report builder??
best regards,

I use this code in form 10g to edit a ms word and its work properlyI very much doubt that. Calling DDE from Forms this way would result in trying to open Word on the <b>server</b>.
the report result in pdf formatThe report result format is determined by how it is called. Looks like you call it with desformat=pdf.

Issue is TEXT_IO application API is not working in report builder 10g.

Issue is TEXT_IO application API is not working in report builder 10g.
TEXT_IO application api is working in report builder 6i. (Not working in upgrade from Oracle EBiz 11i to Oracle Ebiz R12)
I saw that details in some forums, client_text_io is available for form builder 10g.
Is any other api available for report builder 10g?
If it is available what steps we need to do?

All the CLIENT_% procedures are part of webutil in Forms. Forms uses the Java applet on the client PC to perform actions on the local PC via webutil. This is not possible for Reports.
You can still use text_io on the server, but you need some other way to copy the files to/from the client PC.
I wonder how you used the functionality in EBS R11. Even R11 uses web reports, so text_io already worked on the server, not the client PC.

Report Builder 10g does not start on Windows 7 (stays minimized)

When i run the report builder 10g in my Windows 7 machine, the splash screen appears for some time and then it minimizes to the task bar. Thinking that it has loaded and gone to task bar, if i click the icon on task bar, it shows another splash screen and loads another copy of Report Builder, which also minimizes to same icon.
On right-clicking the icon there is no maximize button. I tried running it as administrator and also fix the compatibility, but nothing worked.
This issue starts only after some days of installing the developer 10g. It worked ok for some days and then it started behaving like this. Seen this twice now, both times on re-installing the developer suite the issue goes away.
Is there any way to solve this other than re-install the Oracle Developer ?

Hello,
Did you check the files cagprefs.oar and cauprefs.ora ?

Creating a PDF-File from a report within a service

Hello,
I have to create PDF-Files from a report within a windows service.
My source is as follows (quick and dirty) using Microsoft Report Viewer 2012
Imports Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms
Dim reportViewer1 As New Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer()
Dim objRDLC As New Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.LocalReport()
reportViewer1.LocalReport.ReportEmbeddedResource = "MyApplication.MyReport.rdlc"
Dim deviceInfo As String = "<DeviceInfo>" & _
"<OutputFormat>PDF</OutputFormat>" & _
"<PageWidth>21cm</PageWidth>" & _
"<PageHeight>29.7cm</PageHeight>" & _
"<MarginTop>0.7cm</MarginTop>" & _
"<MarginLeft>0.7cm</MarginLeft>" & _
"<MarginRight>0cm</MarginRight>" & _
"<MarginBottom>0cm</MarginBottom>" & _
"</DeviceInfo>"
objRDLC.DataSources.Clear()
'Fill Report with data
reportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources.Clear()
reportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(New Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportDataSource("dsInfo", dt))
reportViewer1.RefreshReport()
'Output Report as File
Dim byteViewer As Byte() = reportViewer1.LocalReport.Render("PDF", deviceInfo)
Dim newFile As New FileStream("MyFileName", FileMode.Create)
newFile.Write(byteViewer, 0, byteViewer.Length)
newFile.Close()
'Clean up
newFile.Dispose()
objRDLC.DataSources.Clear()
objRDLC.Dispose()
reportViewer1.Dispose()
In most cases everything works fine.
But the service crashes after some/many reports (e.g. after 270 reports or after 1.400 reports). There is no fix number of reports that causes the service to crash.
The service crashes with the following error:

Unfortunately, it is not a piece of code that I can send. The SQL would be embedded inside Oracle Reports tool, and you would have the option to save the output of the report in PDF format.
Once you have the Oracle Report developed, you can execute it from command line prompt and save the output to a pdf file. In your case, the cursor would be embedded inside Oracle Report

Generate PDF file from a report using greek characters

Dear all,
I tried to generate a PDF file from a Report having greek characters on it.While in previewer I could see everything OK, when PDF file was generated all greek characters had been substituted by symbols...
Any ideas, suggestions and workarounds are welcome.
Thanx a lot!

hi Kiriakos,
which version are you using ?
please test this with reports 9i since PDF support
has been enhanced there.
to test i would suggest to run the report from rwclient
as well and specify desformat=pdf and to a generate to
file within builder to see if the same behavior occurs.
if this problem reproduces there as well i suggest
to contact oracle support to log the problem.
regards,
christian

Generated pdf file from oracle reports show bad characters

Hello all,
Iam fighting with a problem with generated pdf file from oracle reports which show some bad characters. I was searching for some information but it didnt help...
I have Oracle Database 11g R2 (or 10g R2) on Oracle Linux or Windows, Oracle forms and reports 6i (i know that is very old and not supported with 11gr2 but we are in this scenario).
NLS parameters are set like this
server:
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_TERRITORY AMERICA
NLS_LANGUAGE AMERICAN
client:
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_TERRITORY SLOVAK
NLS_LANGUAGE SLOVAKIA
When I run Oracle Reports it show perfect in display and when I try to print them, they are all good with good characters, but when I try to generate pdf file, some characters like č,š,ľ are not displaying corectly... This happen only when try to generate to pdf...
I try to work with uifont.ali on client side but without any result. Fonts for reports were installed on client and server side... Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much for every advice.
Martin

Hi Sergiusz,
Thank you for your reply. I look at what you wrote and try to make some test...
1) For first I download FontForge, which can generate type1 font from true type. So I open FontForge and open my Arial.ttf font and use "Generate Fonts" to save my Arial.ttf font to pfb and pfm (whoch are need to set in uifont.ali). I have to change encoding, because my font has 2byte encoding so I reecondode the font from ISO10646-1 to ISO8859-2 and generate to pfb.
2) Then I navigate REPORTS_PATH from regedit to my *.pfm and *.pfb files.
3) I add these lines to end of my uifont.ali
[ PDF:Embed ]
Arial = "Arial.pfm Arial.pfb"
ArialNarrow = "ArialNarrow.pfm ArialNarrow.pfb"
4) Then I generate my report but nothing change... I check "Font used" in my pdf file, but there were not my fonts embedded I guess..
I also try PDF:Subset, but it doesnt change anything... I try PDF aliasing to see if my uifont is working - this work very well, but I dont need to change font...
Any other advice? Thank you so much to everyone!

Reports Builder 10g hanging while printing

Hi all,
We have a printing issue with our Reports Builder 10g. When I run a report, select FILE and PRINT and click o.k, Reports Builder hangs where it trys to format page one. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike

Strange, my ReportBuilder works with File/Print but hangs when printing from the print icon.
ReportBuilder is not a robust product. It hangs and crashes frequently. Little has been done to correct. Except for the auto-save/crash-recovery feature - that is a job saving addition to the product.
That said, lots-o-features get added from one release to the next, but precious little attention seems to be given to improving stability.

ORACLE reports Build 10g - Data Model - query - If statement in Alias ?

I have the following select statement. It has the alias Survivors, Deaths and "All
With the ORACLE reports Build 10g - Data Model - I have the following query statement. I require the alias to change. Can the following be done.
Cases". Is it posible to use :P_LANGUAGE variable to say that -- IF :P_LANGUAGE = FRENCH THEN alias are Survivants for survivors, Décès for Deaths, Tous_les_cas for All Cases. Please advise
SELECT ALL T_NTR_MULTIBAR.CAT, T_NTR_MULTIBAR.NUM_CASES_LEFTBAR AS Survivors,
T_NTR_MULTIBAR.NUM_CASES_MIDDLEBAR AS Deaths, T_NTR_MULTIBAR.NUM_CASES_RIGHTBAR AS "All Cases"
FROM T_NTR_MULTIBAR
WHERE INSTANCE_NUM = :P_INSTANCENUM
order by ORDERS

It is no problem, you can automatically change the complete query before the report is running, which delivers you different kind of values. But the alias names does not change in the group of the data-model, although two query are running with different alias names at different times. In the data model you see the alias names of the first implemented select statement, which are the column fields in the layout.

Dynamic Order By on Report Builder 10g

Hi,
How can I do a dynamic order by clause using user parameters on Report Builder 10g? I need to set dynamically the column and the direction on the clause.
Thanks.
Bruno Galletti
Brazil.

Hi Bruno / Rainer,
I am implementing the same solution, and after adding the lexical parameter reference in the SQL statement and calling the report from Oracle Forms the report failed with the following error on the report server:
Terminated with error: <br>REP-300: missing expression select wcsr_no , wcsr_date , wcsr_rec_week_zone , wcsr_loc_house_num || ' ' || wcsr_loc_pre_dir || ' ' || wcsr_loc_street_name || ' ' || wcsr_loc_street_type || ' ' || wcsr_loc_post_dir || ' ' || wcsr_loc_unit || ' ' || wcsr_loc_city || ' ' || wcsr ==>
No change has been done to the SQL statement except adding the &p_orderby parameter at the end of the query.
Any suggestions? Are all parameters defined as "bind" parameters on the Repotr Object Navigator.?
Thanks
