Pls Help: View Crystal Report Via Oracle Form Builder

Hi!!
I want to know how to view the .rpt report (report made from Crystal Report) via Oracle Form Builder. I've to do it in my project. If you know, please tell me.
Thanks in advance,

I don't know how does crystal reports work, and I would guess you should ask the crystal guys to help you with this. find out if they have a command line interface that you can invoke from the host command in forms.
We can help you do it with Oracle Reports though :-)

  • How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing p

    How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing parameter to it.
    how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.

    how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.This would entirely depend on crystal reports and you might find informations on crystal reports related communities more likely...I for one have seen crystal reports the last time about 12 years ago. And even back then I simply acknowledged it's existence instead of working with it.
    Maybe crystal reports can be invoked via a URL call which would make it simple as you'd need simply build an URL and show the report using web.show_document. But that's pure speculation. Also you might not be the first with this requirement, so the solution to your problem might be right under your nose and just a little google search away ;)
    cheers

    hi
    try something like this.
    DECLARE
    charWinHandle VARCHAR2(50);
    numWinHandle NUMBER;
    BEGIN Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'BUSY');
    charWinHandle := Get_Item_Property('Control.Rep',Window_Handle);
    numWinHandle := To_Number(charWinHandle);
    :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.WindowParentHandle
    := numWinHandle;
    :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.WindowState := 2;
    :Item('CONTROL.CRYSTALREPORT1').OCX.Crystal.Crysta lReport.Connect
    := 'DSN=;UID=' || Get_Application_Property(UserName) ||

    Set_Window_Property( 'MAIN', Window_State, Maximize );
    :reptitle := 'Report Preview Window';
    numWinHandle := Crystal_CrystalCtrl.PrintReport( :Item('Control.CrystalReport1').interface );
    Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'DEFAULT');
    END;NOTE: Change the report name and path according to your required file name and path in
    the "Crystal_CrystalCtrl.ReportFileName" method call. Also, the connection string shown
    assumes that you will use the current USER and PASSWORD for the Form.
    - To make the above Form generic so that you can run any Crystal report from it, then create
    a parameter for the report name and pass it to the Form using CALL_FORM from any other Form.
    Then just replace the file name with the passed parameter.
    -. Run the Form
    If its correct/helpful please mark it thanks.

  • Is it possible to call a Crystal Report from Oracle Forms.

    Hi Everybody,
    I got a Dout about Crystal Reports. Is it possible to call Crystal Reports from Oracle Forms.

    Hello,
    That depends are you running Forms via the WEB or client/server. I will assume you are running client/server since you are running crystal reports. The answer is yes. All you will have to do is use the HOST command or the win_api_shell to run the report. Look in the Forms manual for information on the commands and what else you may need.

    Hi Andreas,
    I am trying to call the crystal report from an Oracle Form using a URL. No batch file is being used here.
    I am looking for a peice of code similar to run_product or run_report built in in Oracle which calls an Oracle report from an Oracle Form.
    Also I dont want to display the report on a screen or a window in Oracle Forms. I would like it to run just as we run an Oracle Report from an Oracle Form.
    Is that possible ? If yes please let me know the steps to do this.
    Thanks

  • RUNNIG CRYSTAL REPORTS FROM ORACLE FORMS (for oracle report team too)

    I WANT TO RUN CRYSTAL REPORT FROM THE ORACE FORMS 6i how can i
    run this if any one has syntax or any detail please send me
    or reply
    thanks

    Ask the Crystal support forum how do you invoke their tool from
    a command line.
    You can then use host command from forms.
    You can also try and find out if they have an OLE2 interface and
    then work with the OLE2 package in forms.

  • VB/Crystal Report vs Oracle Form/Report Developer

    Hi,
    Are there any comparative marketing figures for their popularity? Any advice?
    Thanks & Best Regards, HuaMin Chen. In Hong Kong, China.

    Those products cannot be compared with each other, it will be like comparing a bicycle with an F1 car ;-)
    an advice, don't make your choice according to market value, consider environment, performance, scale of deployment and IT team knowledge, sales people most of the time make the wrong choice.

  • Can we launch Crystal Report via Browser?

    Hi, Experts
    I have created a Balance Sheet report (T-Style) with the help of BOBJ-Crystal Reorts.
    But I wanna to consume this report via Browser, neither email with PDF/Excel attached, nor Crystal Report 2008 designer.
    Is there any solution/tool to make this happen?
    How can I implement it?
    Thanks a lot.
    Peter Zhou

    You are able to view Crystal Reports via a browser in a few ways.
    1. Report is published to Enterprise and you use Infoview to browse to the report and view.
    2. Report is published to Enterprise and you use a custom application written in .NET/JAVA to view the report, loading it from your enterprise server.
    3. Report is stored on disk and you use a custom application written in .NET/JAVA to view the report.
    For viewing in a custom application please visit [diamond.businessobjects.com|http://diamond.businessobjects.com/]
    The documentation for the SDK's can be found in the Developer Library, and sample code can be found under the Sample Code.

  • How to print BIP reports from Oracle Forms?

    Hi all,
    I have a question in regards to printing BIP reports from Oracle Forms... We are aiming for a server installation of BIP with integration to Oracle Forms using SSO to handle security. We use Forms built-in web.show_document to render and view the report in PDF/Excel etc... We would like to by pass the viewing and print some of these reports directly to the printer.
    Any idea/suggestions how we can go about this?
    Thanks in advance for your time.
    Yahya

    Yahya,
    via HTTP it's not possible to send a report directly to the printer. You had to go via the Scheduler, which is able to do that. With the WebService API you can call a report with the Scheduler and Execute Immediate.

  • Calling reports from oracle forms 9i

    Hi
    I succeded to call reports from oracle forms but for I have a problem for only one report so I can't call it. this a part of the code I'm using :
    declare
         pl_id2 ParamList;
         pl_name2 VARCHAR2(30) := 'liste2';      
    v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
         rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
    begin
    pl_id2 := get_parameter_list(pl_name2);
    if (Id_Null(pl_id2) )THEN     
    pl_id2 := Create_Parameter_List(pl_name2);
    IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id2) THEN     
         add_parameter(pl_id2,'mois',TEXT_PARAMETER,:mois);
    END IF;
    end if;
    IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id2) THEN
    if(:mois is not null) then
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT('My_report',pl_id2);
    message(v_rep);
    rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
    WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
    rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
    END LOOP;
    IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
    WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repserver','_blank');
    ELSE      
    message('Error when running report');
    END IF;
    end;
    the problem I've remarqued is that the function message(v_rep) is always returning the value :'repserver_0'.
    so when I execute the previous code I'm getting the 2 messages : 'repserver_0' and 'Error when running report'.
    Rq: the report my_report is running very well in report builder.
    does someone see where is the problem so can help me??
    thanx.

    Hi,
    This usually happens when the report fails on the report server. To obtain details on why a particular report has failed, use the showjobs page :
    http://server.domain:PORT/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?server=repserver
    and check the detailed error occured.
    This is logged as Bug:3017948. It is marked to be fixed in version 9.0.4 (Reports 10g) and also has one-off patches for version 9.0.2.3 on Windows platforms. If you need further assistance about patches, please raise a Service Request (SR) with Support via Metalink (http://metalink.oracle.com).

  • Calling Report From Oracle Forms

    Hi
    I am calling this one report from oracle forms, I am using global temporary table to run that report. I am first inserting data into the temporary table through oracle form and then i am calling report in that form to view the data in that temporary table. The problem is, we can not view the data of an other session if we are using temporary table. When i call report from that form a new session get created due to which i can not see the data. Is there any method of calling report from oracle form that a same session is used to run the report?
    Thanks.

    As you mention Forms and Reports do not share the database session. I had the same problem and resolved it using record groups and DATA_PARAMETER to transfer data from Forms to Reports. You could also read the Note 110495.1 on Metalink to find useful information regarding this issue.

  • Deplying Crystal report on Oracle Appliaction Server

    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    You need to understand the potential pitfalls of you process first.
    First I'll assume that you have joined the two datasources on some field, something that you should include in your post. Please state in your next posting.
    When you do so, then all of the processing related to joining the data happens within Crystal, and it is NOT a fast database server.
    So it can take a looooooooooooooong time to do this, depending upon the number of rows and the joins involved. You haven't posted anything about the amount of rows returned by either query form Oracle or SQL Server, so we can't speak to that. Instead you say that you did it with Oracle and Access, which is pretty much meaningless here. The Access or Oracle table could have had only a few rows, this isn't a matter of Crystal slowing because certain types of connectivity or databases are used, it is a matter of volume.
    I would consider linking the Oracle tables into the SQL Server database, or as many do, LINK (not import) all of the tables into an Access database and then do the queries in Access and expose a query as the source for the Crystal Report.
    In either case, something will need to do the processing, and having Crystal do so is probably the slowest of your options.
