Print report from form 9i

Hi All,
How do I print a report from a form? I have users wanting to print a report by pressing a button. They do not wish to see the report, but to print it directly to their default printer. I do not want to give any printer name, but rather form print to the default printer.
Any help is appreciated.
My environment is
Database: Oracle 9i
AS: Oracle Application Server 9i release 2
Forms: 9i
Reports: 9i
Thanks
-John

If You not Use Client Server Application the Also Passing a Host Command in Button-Pressed Event and Run.

Printing a report from Forms 9i

Hi all
I have to print a report from Forms 9i, but I can't do it directly, I have to execute it with desname = preview and then I can print it.
I use the following sintax
RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC(repid, v_server_name,'pdf',printer,v_path,v_report,'paramform=no'|| other parameter....,v_servlet)
where v_path is the name of the printer and run_report_object is a procedure to execute reports into forms
I try to set v_path with the printer name on my client and on the server.. but it doesn't find it...
Please help me,
Thanks in advance
Antonio

Printing a report from forms

I would like to print a report from forms without opening reports first. Is this possible and if so how?

From a command-line or .BAT file (assuming Windows and Developer6i) run the following (on a single line). It will go to your default printer.
<ORA_HOME>\bin\rwrun60 <report>.rdf userid=<user>/<pw>@<hoststring> destype=printer batch=yes

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,

Print Report from Web..

Dear All,
I have deployed my 6i reports on OAS Forms and Reports Services (9.0.4), by compiling 6i reports in 10 g report builder.
These 6i reports have the default parameters like
Destype=screen
Desformat=dflt
But in forms builder 10g in report object I gave
Destype=cache
Desformat=pdf
parameter to run the report from forms using Web.show_document().
So when take the print from web the format ( indentation, fonts,font size) of the report is little changed as compare to 6i reports format.
How can I got the exact format ( indentation, fonts,font size) of 6i while print from web(
by OAS Forms and Report Services)?
Thanks & Regards
Rana

How to call jsp web report from forms 9i

Dear fellows,
How can i call a jsp report from forms 9i.
Thanx
Mochoo

Use web.show_document instead of Run_Report_Object. If the jsp contains a paper layout you can still use Run_Report_Object, but you have to specify the filename extension .jsp along with the filename.
