Placing buttons in a region displaying an Interactive Report

Hi,
I have a page on which I am displaying an interactive report.I would like to place buttons on this region where the report is displayed-
- The first button right of the search bar of the interactive report
- The second button right of the first button.
- The third (exactly ) below the second button (still right of the search bar)
I am aware that if this where an HTML region,then I would have had the flexibility to place the third button in a new line without a problem,but can I achieve this in a region displaying an interactive report?
Is there any way to do this?
Regards,
Priya Jetley

Create the buttons as region buttons in the IR region, with the following properties:
Button Position: Right of Interactive Report Search Bar
Button Alignment: Left Right
Enter *style="display: block; float: right;"* in the Button Attributes of the third button.

Changed back as the slight glitch in FF2 is preferable to not working in FF3 and Safari

Adding radio button to each row of an interactive report: possible or not?

First of all let me explain what the point of this application is.
I'm making an application that allows a user to select something out of a drop-down select list. This list is a list of categories for food. Let's say the user selects "Fruit".
Then the page refreshes and shows an interactive report with a list of food that belongs to the category of fruit.
Here's where I want to change things:
I want the user to see the interactive report, but in this interactive report I want to add a radio button for each row.
Then, when a certain type of food is selected (let's say "Strawberry") via the radio button, a text field should appear underneath the interactive report. In this textfield, the user can then add the weight of the food item, and then it will calculate how many carbs there are in the strawberry.
All I really want to know is:*
How do I add a radio button to each row of the interactive report, and how do I link this radio button to the value of that particular row?*
Additional information:
The item "P17_FOOD_CATEGORY" contains the following LOV:
select FOODCATEGORYNAME as display_value, FOODCATEGORYID as return_value
from FOODCATEGORY
order by 1
The "Food" region contains the following source:
select a.FOODID, a.NAME, b.FOODCATEGORYNAME, c.STANDARDAMOUNT, c.NAME Unit
from FOOD a inner join FOODCATEGORY b
on a.FOODCATEGORYID = b.FOODCATEGORYID join FOODUNIT c
on a.FOODID = c.FOODID
where a.FOODCATEGORYID = :P17_SET_CATEGORY
EDIT:
PLEASE! Even if you don't know a good answer or if you are unsure about your answer, do post! Even suggestions would be welcome! I really need all the help I could get, even if it's not much.

Hi there!
I tried to change my code to your version, but then I get an error message:
Error Unable to change Interactive Report query.
ORA-12899: value too large for column "APEX_040100"."WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_COLUMNS"."DB_COLUMN_NAME" (actual: 32, maximum: 30)
I don't quite know what this means. After doing a quick search on the internet, I know that this message should mean that the length of the value for the columns named "APEX_040100", "WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_COLUMNS" and "DB_COLUMN_NAME" is too long. But, I don't have these columns. I searched for them in my object browser, and they can't be found in any table related to my application.
I'm sure your answer is the solution, but do you perhaps have an idea on how to solve this error? I checked the allowed maximum length for any column value that is related to my application, but they all have "50" set as the maximum value...
Thank you for your reply. ;)

Conditional Display of Interactive Report Based on Field Above

Page one has simple text box entry for a Vendor # with a button that branches to a page displaying information for that vendor. In a region below, I would like an interactive report that displays all of the item and description that vendor provides to our company. I have tried to use the Conditional Display to disply only items in the report but have been unsuccessful. Your help is appreciated!
Thanks.

Hello user2961006 (please tell us your name),
I understand your question to be, "how do I make a report on page two only show rows related to an item entered on page one". Putting a condition on a region isn't the answer here - you want the report to always display, but just with different rows depending on the vendor number entered. A condition on a region is used to either display the region or not.
What you need to do is put a WHERE clause on the SELECT statement that your report is using to get its data. For example, if the item holding the entered vendor number is P1_VENDOR_NUM, the SELECT statement for your report would look something like:
SELECT item, description
FROM my_items
WHERE vendor_num = :P1_VENDOR_NUMNote my_items is a fictitious name. This will tell the DB to only retrieve rows where the vendor number is the vendor number entered by the user.
Hope this helps, I'll gladly accept reward points if it does ;-)

Newly added column not displayed in Interactive report

Hello,
I have a tableA with 3 columns.In the application i am displaying as Form with Report region as Interactive report(Oracle 10g Application Express 3.2).
I added one column to tableA.Now when i am refreshing the report by adding that column in the select query,the new added column is not displayed in the application.
How can i do this so that the added column can be displayed.I dont want to delete the whole thing and redo it again.
Thanks
Siya

Hi Siya,
The Interactive Report will not show you the newly added columns by default. You have to select those columns from the actions menu and when all the required fields are displayed then save it as the default report.
Then you will be able to see all the columns.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks,
Satish.

What is the best way to display a Interactive Report having 20 columns

Hi,
I am having a Interactive Report having many columns (around 20).
What is the best way to display that report...by default we have to scroll it horizontally to see all the columns.
I want to avoid Horizontally Scrolling.
Thanks,
Deepak

Hello Deepak,
You mean apart from using a smaller font size or a bigger monitor?
You can think about combining / wrapping columns (so more data in one column).
Or hide some less important data and show that only on demand.

Setting default columns displayed in interactive report

Hi APEX community,
I recently created an interactive report based on an sql query as follows:
select
"STOCK_CLIP_ID",
"TITLE"
from "STOCK_CLIP"
After creating the report I added an additional column:
select
"STOCK_CLIP_ID",
"TITLE",
*"UPLOADED"*
from "STOCK_CLIP"
The new column does not display by default, I have to add it under Actions > Select Columns. I cant find any setting to add my new column UPLOADED to the default columns to be displayed so that when a user first navigates to the report they dont have to add that column in order to be able to see it.
Sorry this is perhaps a stupid question with an obvious answer, i'm new to the interactive reports.
Thanks!

Hi,
Login to Apex builder. Run page where is your interactive report.
Select columns you like to show default from Action menu. Save report default layout from Action menu.

Displaying an interactive report row using two lines

Is there a way to take a report row from an interactive report that has too many columns for one display row and display using 2 rows? This would minimize the amount of scrolling the user would then need to do.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I dont think we can show a single row as two lines in an interactive report but if you use a classic report instead of interactive then you can do that by creating your own custom report template from scratch and selecting templete type as Named Column (row template) and show the row in what ever way you need...any way if you find any solution for interactive report just post your solution here which will help me too

Displaying an interactive report differently depending on user connected

Hi,
I have an interactive report on a table which holds server information. This table has a column which is called "Restricted". It has only two possible values (Y or N). It determines whether or not a user has the privileges to view the server password of that server.
We are using database authentication for our APEX 3.2.1 application. We have 2 predefined roles, one with full privileges (Select, Update, Insert, Delete), and one with only Select privileges. When creating a database user account to access our APEX application, one of these 2 predefined roles is assigned to the user.
What i want to accomplish is to display the Server Interactive Report as follows:
If the user has full privileges, then they see the contents of the Password field regardless of the contents of the "Restricted" column (Y or N).
However, if the user only has select privileges, they will not see anything in the Password field if the "Restricted" column is set to Y. Either i will display a Null or a bunch of stars (****). Note: I cannot hide the Password column because i still want to display the password column for those records that have a 'N' in the restricted column.
I know how to create a condition which determines which level of privileges the user has and make the report display stars in the password field (I used a decode statement in the SQL statement generating the report which sets the Password field to **** if Restricted is set to Y). This only takes into account the role assigned to the user. The complicated part is factoring in the condition of wether or not the Restricted column is Y or N so that users with the right privileges will see everything whereas users without the privileges will see null or stars.
This is a major issue we are facing right now.
Thanks for any suggestions, advice.
Tim

Hi Scott,
Thank you very much, I just had not structured my case statement correctly and ommitted that second condition about the user.
I did this: CASE WHEN "RESTRICTED" = 'Y' and :APP_USER = 'NO_PRIV' THEN '****'
ELSE ORA_PWD END ORA_PWD, "RESTRICTED"
The report works fine now! :-)

Conditional Display of Interactive Report Based On Different SQL Query

Hello,
I have two drop down list on top of my page and below that I have a interactive report.
Based on user selection of values from drop down, interactive report should change based on different SQL queries.
Is it possible to have different SQL queries based on values from drop down and generate interactive report based on that?
Thanks

I am passing my drop down value to apex_collection like the following:
APEX_COLLECTION.CREATE_COLLECTION_FROM_QUERY( p_collection_name => 'IR_LIST',
p_query => REQUEST_VIEW(:P12_VIEW));However when I change the values from the drop down, :P12_VIEW is not getting the value from drop down even though I could see value being changed in URL. I have created page process for apex_collection
Process Point - OnLoad - Before Header
Run Process - Once Per Session or When ResetCould someone suggest as why I cannot get the values in function when drop down is changed?

Here is how it's been set up...
Display Point: Page Template Body (1)
20 Filters HTML

However I need to place a text fileld or select list or Date Field intead.
Any ideas? If a template needs to be changed could you please indicate which template? I affrid the date field does not allow an option to change its templates.....
I hope somebody would be able to help.
Thanks in advance
Ligon Gopinathan

Hi,
It will take some trial and error to get the positioning correct, but you can do the following:
1 - Create an HTML region that is positioned at the bottom of your page (that is, make sure that it is underneath all other regions). Set the region's Title to &nbsp; and the Template to "No Template"
2 - On your datepicker, in the Label/HTML Table Cell Attributes setting, add in:
nowrap="nowrap" id="P1_DATE_LABEL"(replacing P1_DATE with the actual name of the item).
3 - In the region's Region Source, add in:
<style type="text/css">
#P1_DATE_LABEL {position:absolute; top:40px; left:450px;}
#P1_DATE_fieldset {position:absolute; top:40px; left:500px;}
</style>P1_DATE_LABEL is the ID you set above and P1_DATE_fieldset is the ID of the fieldset created for the datepicker by Apex. Change the top and left settings for both as required for your page.
This outputs the datepicker in your region and then moves it to the top/left position you specify.

Apex 4.1 different font text in Reports Region and Interactive reporting

Hi everybody,
In my APEX 4.1 page, I have two regions using the same ''Reports region" Template but font text are different. Why The first region is an interactive reporting. The second it's a report. I know that each one has his own data for sure but the same region template .Spaces between colons are different. Is it normal ? I want to have the same font text for the two regions.
Thanks in advance. Bye.

Theme 13 is not an APEX 4.x theme ? How I can know that is one of this serie ?
Legacy themes are flagged with a "*" in the theme gallery. Standards mode themes are not. (I don't have access to APEX 4.1 at present to be able to identify specific themes.)
Properties of interactive report components, is it possible to take a look on this properties or it's a "black box" ?
You can either look in the global APEX style sheet, or (probably more usefully) use a browser web inspector to examine the CSS properties of the IR components in the page.

Set Form Values From Interactive Report Row

Using Apex 4.2.
I have two tables: T1 and T2
Table T1 contains five columns: CT11, CT12, CT13, CT14, CT15
Table T2 contains 4 columns: CT21, CT22, CT23, CT24
I have a page with two regions. Region 1 is a Form on a Table using table T1. Region 2 is an Interactive Report ( IR ) on table T2.
The SQL for region 2 is: select apex_item.RADIOGROUP(p_idx => 1, p_value => CT21) "Choose", CT22, CT23, CT24 from T2;
When the user clicks a radio button for a row in the Interactive Report, I would like the values in the IR cells CT22, CT23, CT24 to populate the CT13, CT14, CT15 fields in the table form in region 1. If a user clicks another row radio button, the values should update.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
As per my understanding ur requirement is as below.
When the user clicks the 'Link Column' it should redirect to another page with the value of id, Day, Start Time, and End Time.
Hope all the cloumns are from the same table.
As Denes said, it is enought to pass the ID value to the link column as of below.
ie., u can modify ur query as of below.
SELECT Last Name,First Name,Day,Start Time,End Time, ID as "Link Column"
FROM t.
Now u can pass the value as #Link Column# which will pass the ID value to the next page.
Hope my understanding is correct.

"no data found" message wrapping in interactive report

I've looked around and can't figure out what's going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have an interactive report which, when no data is found, displays the "no data found" message wrapping very tight. I have uploaded a screenshot of it to TinyPic for you to see what I see.
The HTML generated around the "no data found" text is the following.
>
<DIV id="apexir_DATA_PANEL">
<TABLE summary="">
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<TABLE id="12352007490697832" class="apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA" border="0" cellSpacing="0" summary="" cellPadding="0">
<SPAN class="fielddata">
No submissions were found in the system.
</SPAN>
</TABLE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</DIV>
>
I've looked through the HTML code that is generated for that page, but can't figure out why the words are wrapping. Any thoughts?
Shane.

Well, my problem is back again. It is only doing this in IE 8, not FF. When I run IE 8 in "IE 7" mode, the error message shows up fine, all on one line. I actually have two span tags now so I can have some spacing around the "no data found" message. I cannot get the "span" tags to show up in the HTML code. The software for this discussion forum seems to be filtering it out or the web browser is interpreting it when it should not. I will replace the SPAN tags with square brackets so you can see them. I also had to change "style" to "st_yle" so the software did not filter it out. It sure looks like a jumbled mess now.
>
<DIV id="apexir_DATA_PANEL">
<TABLE summary="">

<TD>
<TABLE id="12352007490697832" class="apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA" border="0" cellSpacing="0" summary="" cellPadding="0">

</TABLE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</DIV>

Since I am using an interactive report, I do not believe I have any report template I can alter to adjust how the report and/or "no data found" message are being drawn up. I do have the region of the interactive report set to "Reports Region 100% Width", but the HTML in question is not being generated by that template.
I wonder if the problem is specific to how IE 8 might be interpreting the inside TABLE tags when it does not have any TR or TD tags within it. Any further thoughts on the matter?
Shane.

Interactive Report - search does not work when using custom authentication

Apex 3.2.x
I can authenticate fine with my custom authentication and all of my pages work okay except for one page that uses the Interactive Report feature. When I click 'Filter' then enter the column name, operation (contains, =, like, etc.) and the expression, then click the 'Apply' button, the page just re-displays and my filter information is missing?
If I first login to Apex, select and run my application, the Interactive Report features work just fine. What's missing?

More information:
After login into my Apex workspace (development environment), when I display the Interactive Report and click debug I see this debug message:
"using existing session report settings"
When I login using my application's custom authentication and click debug I see this debug message:
"creating session report settings as copy of public saved report"
Based on this, it appears that my session info in not set correctly when using custom authentication... but I'm not sure what needs to be set.
