Let me know whether it is possible to print a hard report rom sql*plus Yes. SPOOL is a command to get SQL*Plus screen results to disk real-time.
and how.A "report" is such a generic term, that you will have to get started with at least some reading :)

(search for: "How Can I Learn SQL*Plus")
You may also address specific questions about the SQL*Plus product (that are not really Database SQL and/or PL/SQL related) via the [Technologies>Tools>iSQL*Plus] forum rather than here.
waiting That's up to you! Dig in!

Query based Report (Reports From SQL Query)

Hi All,
I am facing a problem with a report. I need your help.
I am creating a Report From SQL Query (Portal) with some arguments passed at runtime. I am able to view the output, if the query returns few rows ( arount 1000 rows). But for some inputs it needs to generate >15000 records, at this point the page is getting time out (i think!) and showing error page. I am able to execute query from the SQL Plus console ot using TOAD editor. Here the query is not taking more that 2 mins time to show the result.
If i am executing from Portal i observed that, once i give the appropriate input and hit submit button a new oracle process is getting created for the query on UNIX (I am usign "TOP" command to check processes). The browser page will be shown error page after 5 minutes (i am assuming session time out!) , but on the backend the process will be executed for more than 30 mins.
Can i increase a timeout of portal page, how i can do this?
The data returned as a result of the query is sized more than 10 MB. Is caching this much data is possible by the browser page? is the returned data is creating any problem here.
Please help me to find appropriate reasone for the failure?

Can you post the URL that is giving you the page not found error ? I am not sure if I can be of much help though.
In order to increase your chances to get a reply you should also post your question in the Portal Forum - Oracle Application Server Portal

There could be a variety of reasons for the delayed processing of this report. That includes parameter settings for that page, cache settings, network configurations, etc.
- explore best optimization for your query;
- evaluate portal for best performance configuration; you may follow this note (Doc ID: *438794.1* ) for ideas;
- third: for that particular page carrying that report, you can use caching wisely. browser cache is neither decent for large files, nor practical. instead, explore the page cache settings that portal provides.
- also look for various log files (application.log and apache logs) if you are getting any warnings reflecting on some kind of processing halt.
- and last but not the least: if you happen to bring up a portal report with more than 10000 rows for display then think about the usage of the report. Evaluate whether that report is good/useful for anything?

File- Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13

File->Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13.
I downloaded sqldeveloper-1.2.1.3213.ZIP and extract to a local directory. From the extracted directory I ran ..\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe from Windows XP sp2. The program itself seems to run just fine but File-Print doesn't do anything. In Help-About, Java Platform is reported as 1.5.0_06 and Oracle IDE is 1.2.1.3213. I'm not sure where to look for what is causing the problem.
Thanks

I hadn't tried CTRL-P before but I did today. On the first attempt, I saw a small jump in the memory usage for sqldeveloper.exe as reported in Windows Task Manager. Otherwise, there was no change. A second CTRL-P in the same session produced a further bump but subsequent attempts in the same session produced no further change in CPU or Memory Usage.
Using Task Manager to monitor this further, I tried File->Print again and saw that sqldeveloper would periodically climb to 1 or 2 percent CPU and consume a little more memory. After a minute or so, though, all activity stops again.
I do not get a print dialog box from SQLDeveloper using either CTRL-P or File->Print

Calling stored proc (with 2 IN and 3 OUT) - from SQL Plus

This is the signature of my stored proc:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE myschema.myproc
   p_usr_name     IN VARCHAR2,
   p_send_tmstmp IN DATE,
   p_ret_value    OUT NUMBER,
   p_err_code     OUT VARCHAR2
)If I need to call it from sql plus, how do I need to pass the arg?
This is what I am doing
execute myschema.myproc('abc123','02-MAY-2008');
What is wrong here? If someone could help. Thx!

Try something like this
var usr_name    varchar2(30)
var send_tmstmp varchar2(11)
var ret_value   number
var err_code    varchar2(10)
begin
:usr_name    := 'abc123';
:usr_name := '02-MAY-2008';
myschema.myproc ( p_usr_name           => :usr_name,
                  p_send_tmstmp        => TO_DATE( :usr_name, 'DD-MON-YYYY' ),
                  p_ret_value          => :ret_value,
                  p_err_code           => :err_code);
end;
print ret_value;
print err_code;

Print a report from Application Express direct to a CUPS Printer

Hi all, I'm new to this technology, is it possible to print a report from Application Express directly to a CUPS Printer? Can someone tell me in laymans terms how to do it? I find the terminology and documentation less than helpful.

Jeremy,
BI Publisher handles submitting reports directly to a CUPS printer. However, the APEX integration doesn't currently integrate with that portion of BI Publisher.
Here's an options:
Use the Java API of BI Publisher to build a custom Java program that would do this for you. Delivering to CUPS is part of the Java API.

Print Message Report from Mobile

Hello...
We need modify standard mobile infrastructure java code...
We need print some report from Mobile Front-end.
Is possible to print all MESSAGE data that we can see from front-end of mobile infrastructure 2.5 ???
thank you very much
Stefano

I haven't really done much enhancements on MAM 2.5, but Im sure sami will let you know where to add the code, or you can review the MAM enhancement guide on the CD.
In regards to printing the PIOS API is pretty simple. If you are using a laptop to print to a normal printer then you can just use the Win32 Drivers..(installed via driver addon from web sap console.)If you are using the handheld you will need to find the appropriate drivers.
Here is some code I used in one of my applications:
 Connector conn = Connector.getInstance();
 DriverInfo[] driverInfo = conn.listDrivers(ConnectionType.PRINTER);
 PrinterParameters params = new PrinterParameters(driverInfo[0]);
 params.setPrinterMode(PrinterParameters.GRAPHIC_MODE);
 GraphicPrinter gp = (GraphicPrinter) conn.open(params);
 File myImage = new File("c:
smalllogo.bmp");
 if (myImage.exists()) {
 float x = 0;
 float y = 50;
 try {
 String[] sFonts =
 gp.getFontConfigurationManager().listFontNames();
 PrinterFont pf = gp.getFont(sFonts[0]);
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 25,
 "TO For Delivery # = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(arrayItems[0], "VBELN"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 for (i = 0; i < arrayItems.length; i++) {
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 y,
 "Delivery Item # = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(
 arrayItems,
 "POSNR"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 y = y + 10;
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 y,
 "Material # = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(
 arrayItems,
 "MATNR"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 y = y + 10;
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 y,
 "Quantity to Pick = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(
 arrayItems,
 "LFIMG"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 y = y + 25;
 gp.doPrint(1);
 gp.close();
 } catch (Throwable tFile) {
 tFile.printStackTrace();
 }
This should give you an idea, you should also read through the MDK documentation for the printer API (PIOS). Its quite easy to pick up and as long as you have the driver and connector installed it prints right away.(You could also use the Peripheral emulator in
NWDS to test the code first)
Hope this helps,
Wael..

Adding update and delete buttons to a Report from SQL Query

There is an option when creating a QBE to add update and delete
links which i find quite useful, but this option doesn't seem to
be possible on a Report from SQL Query. Do i need to do
something special to add them? is the option located in a
different place?

Hi,
You can only add Update ,Delete in QBE Reports,
there is no option in Portal which can be used to
have these buttons in the Reports from Query Wizard or
Report from SQL Query.
Thanks

Getting zero-sized reply error when running report from SQL query

Hi,
I have a Report from SQL Query in Portal. When I select Excel in Output Format and then run the report, it works properly, but when I select HTML in Output Format, the report works if the rows returned are not so many (I've been able to display the report for up to 701 rows), but when I try selecting a value from the LOV that selects many rows, I get the following error:
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: <data suppressed>
The following error was encountered:
Zero Sized Reply
Squid did not receive any data for this request.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Why does the number of rows returned affect the report this way?
Thanks,
Lorena

Problem comes when any of the filter is applied in any one of the cases selected from the GUI.Do you mean that the problems only shows when you run the report in your browser via 9iAS?
Which version are you using?
Can you post the before report trigger?

Width of field in Report From SQL Query

I have created a report from SQL query with 15 columns being selected. However, no matter what column width and column type (pixel, char, percent) I enter in the column formatting tab of the report, I cannot get the report to format the column to the width I desire. It is always a fixed width. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Martin

Hi,
Char (used for ASCII format)
Displays the output in the specified number of
characters per line. For example, if you enter 20
in Width, the report displays 20 characters of the
column data in each line. If the number of
characters per line exceeds the specified
number, the remaining characters are wrapped
to the next line.
Pixel
Displays the output in the specified number of
pixels per row. For example, if you enter 10 in
Width, the column data displays 10 pixels of
data per line of the displayed table.
Percent
Displays the output in the specified percentage
of the table. For example, if you enter 25 in
Width, the column data displays in 25% of the
displayed table.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Can Portal Report from SQL Query use where column IN (:bind_variable)

I would like to create a portal report from sql query with IN (:bind_variable) in the where clause. The idea is that the user would enter comma-separated or comma-quote-separated values for the bind_variable. I have tried this several ways but nothing seems to work. Can this be done?
Trenton

Hi,
Which version of portal are you using. This is a bug. It has been fixed in 30984.
Thanks,

Report from SQL Query -Excel format only show the first page

Hi,
I have some Reports from SQL Query. In the display options, I choose Excel as default format. The Excel documents only show the first page. If I choose HTML as default format, it shows every rows.
Please advise on how to have a complete Excel document as HTML format does.
Thanks a lot.
Lina Han

I beleive when you export Oracle reports to Excel it is the Data that is transferred along with Column Names.
You cannot export the variables defined on the report.
Hence you will not be able to export the Footer to excel. (Still looking into it will let you know if i find anything interesting)
