Problem with NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on different machines

We have 5 machines here in our workgroup which have the same state regarding security patches and other system updates. We recently found out that there is a problem with the NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on the different machines.
If I would open the VI on MachineA the control could be loaded. If I would open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineB to MachineA and open the VI the control could not be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineA to MachineB and open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. MachineB could load the version from MachineA and MachineB but on MachineA only the own version will load. I have seen that both versions have the same GUID for the Microsoft Webbrowser but are different in some other aereas.
Since printing HTML Reports is part of the application which will be distributed as application I want to know if someone else have seen such a behaviour or has got problems distributing an application.
Also I want to know which additional information is stored in an Active-X container about the control beside the GUID.
We have Win XP Prof SP2 with MS IE 6.0.2900.2180 on all machines in the workgroup.

Hi Tom,
this is the VI <vi.lib>\Utillitiy\NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi copied from a machine that can load and run the VI and it will print. On this machine the control in the VI is white.
This VI will give the "Control could not be loaded" message on my machine.
The file shdocvw.dll is 2006-10-23 16:18 size 1.460 KB and I verifyed that both machines have the same version of this file.

Printing wedding invitations using PDFs purchased from Etsy.

I am trying to print wedding invitations using PDFs purchased from Etsy. What program should I be using, and how can I get four of the the RSVP cards to print on one sheet of paper? Thanks!Pr

Thanks for your prompt reply. I know this sounds dense, but I can't figure out how to get the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th copies to populate....I can get the one to print the correct size on 1/4th of the sheet if that makes any sense.

How to print out answers using the form I created

I created an application form for my company. People have submitted their applications, but I do not know how to print them out.
Is there a way to copy the answers into the form and print that? Or something like that?
I cannot just print the answers because it's over 100 pages and would be disorganized.
I basically just need to know how to print out the form I created with the respondants answers.
Thanks

Here is what you can do...
Open the form file
Go to the View Responses tab
Select the View menu in the upper right corner of the UI
Select the Details View menu item on that menu
The Details View pane will open on the right side of the window
At the bottom of that pane there is a set of buttons
The first button let's you print the detail view of the currently selected response
The last button labeled Export will create a PDF file of the selected response
Is that what you were trying to accomplish? I'll admit that we need to make print and export to PDF more discoverable and easier to get to - that was too many steps

Printing OSHA reports using CG54

I am printing OSHA reports(OSHA_300 & OSHA_300A) from CG54 using Period-Based Accident Reports report category. I specify a period range and work area. When the report is sent to WWI gen server, I look at the parameter values for the report in CG54 and see an entry for the period range but not for the work area. Any Idea why? Is this a bug?

In order to make the work area to show up as the parameter values, you need to have defined the work area with a parameter symbol (02) in the template.

How to make it repleatedly printed out by using timer??

Dear Friends:
I have following code to run, When I press R to repeat println, only 1 line print out,
But I hope to make it continueously print out.
How to make it repleatedly printed out until I press CTRL + C key ??
Thyanks
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.io.*;
public class CertainAndRepeatTime{
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{
    int delay = 1;
    Timer timer = new Timer();
    ActionListener actionListener = new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
          System.out.println("Hello World Timer");
    System.out.println("What do you want (Certain time or Repeat time)?");
    System.out.print("Please enter \'C\' or \'R\' for that: ");
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
    String ans = in.readLine();
    System.out.print("Please enter ans=" + ans + " IsTrue= " + (ans.equals("R") || ans.equals("r")) +"\n");
    if (ans.equals("C") || ans.equals("c")){
      //System.out.println("This line is printed only once start...");
      timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){
        public void run(){
          System.out.println("This line is printed only once.");
      },delay,1);
    else if(ans.equals("r") || ans.equals("R")){
      timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){
        public void run(){
          System.out.println("This line is printed repeatedly.");
      },delay, 1000);
    else{
      System.out.println("Invalid Entry.");
      System.exit(0);
    System.exit(0);
}

The Timer is working fine, but because it runs in another Thread, your program is ending before the Timer can repeat.
The simplest way to make your program wait until it is force-quitted as you describe would be to make an infinite loop (although this isn't very good practice), like this:
    else if(ans.equals("r") || ans.equals("R")){
      timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){
        public void run(){
          System.out.println("This line is printed repeatedly.");
      },delay, 1000);
    while(true){} //This will make your main thread hang.
    }A better way, though, would be to listen again with your System.in reader until they enter a letter that means quit.

Apex 4.1 Print IR Report to PDF

I wanted to see if I have it correct on Apex and getting data out in either printed form or to Excel.
Unlike previous dev tools like Discoverer which would make printing things out to PDF and paper almost an exact duplicate of what was done on the screen report,
Apex chose another route and making it harder to get things out.
Now if you have $150,000 laying around you can purchase BI-Publisher and get "Nicer" output that of which I have only seen in a demo.
What about those of us that don't have 150K to spend?
I have my FOP server up and running but this give the most basic output available.
So Far I see no way to get Break Groups, total amounts or anything even remotely approaching charts out using FOP.
Do I have this correct. I just want to make sure.
I wanted to use one tool to do my development from the Data Warehouse, and was led to believe that Apex was it.
What are the "Real" solutions in getting better formatted output to a printed page. Is there anything that can take the rendering on the page and print it out, or down load it for Excel and/or other output.
I am going to have to now go back to my supervisor and say I am going to have to code in discoverer as well as Apex to get viable printed output on our project thereby increasing my time and footprint and tools the user must use.
I am not getting a warm fuzzy feeling about this.
I know that I am going to have to open an SR to get a response on this from anyone even remotely connected to oracle, but I wanted to get some other thoughts out there, and see if I am missing something easy in the way of getting output and leveraging my work in apex to the printed page in anything that resembles what you see on the screen in apex.
Any help or advise is appreciated.

Sorry mate, Apex doesn't score well when it comes to generating reports out of the box - however it does integrate with other options.
BI Publisher - I thought the figure was more like $50k, but I guess it depends on your currency.

Effect of Adobe "print" settings when using PDF-Maker or printing to PDF

I have accidentally found that the fonts and ('microscopic') visual appearance of a document can change depending upon the setting of the option "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" which is accessed under Print > Properties > Adobe PDF Settings from within MS Word (2003). [Acrobat 9.1.0 Pro (trial)].
I had initially thought this was a difference between the print-to-PDF route, and the PDF-Maker route. There may be a difference, but the more important effect is the settings on the PDF printer, which you might not think to set if using the PDF-Maker. That is, the settings of the PDF printer affect the result of using the PDF-Maker.
Apparently it doesn't matter whether 'system fonts' are embedded in the document or not (for this example).
Examples follow.
—DIV
P.S. See my initial query at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/419516.

I am struggling a bit to make sense out of all the files, but a general comment on the process is this. PDF Maker is basically a preprocessor for the Adobe PDF printer. The settings in the PDF Maker preferences can override the settings in the printer. What PDF Maker does is to basically create PDF Marks in the PS file that the printer creates to allow for Distiller to create bookmarks and such. For a comparison, you need to see which job settings are used in each and the options that each job settings uses. Including the system fonts in the PS does not make any difference except to make the PS file smaller. The system will go get the fonts at the time that Distiller creates the PDF (at least that is supposed to be the process). The job settings file will make a difference about whether a font will be embedded or not. As I recall, there were different fonts embedded and used in various versions of your PDFs. The fonts can be viewed with the font tab of the document properties.
This does not answer the questions, but may give you some idea about the process and what to look for as you create these files. It may be that different job settings are used and such, causing a comparison of apples and oranges. I don't have time to look further now, but that might give you some things to consider. (I may not have helped much here since my comments are apparently similar to what I said in the other post).

Printing SAP Help (using PDF or anything except HTML)

Printing the HTML version of SAP help is time-consuming and the pages don't come out correctly. There used to be .pdf versions of all of the help files at help.sap.com/docuprint, but that seems to have gone away. How can I print SAP help topics quickly and conveniently?
Thanks for your assistance.

Hi,
if you have access to SAP Service Marketplace, you can download the CD/DVD image of more or less all of the documentation CDs/DVDs. All these CDs contain the SAP Library in HTMLHelp format which offers a functionality to print all topics starting from the selected node in the structure tree.
Proceed as follows:
1. Goto http://service.sap.com/swdc
2. In the tree, choose "Search for all categories"
3. In the search field, enter the material number of the desired CD (this is the only reliable way to get the desired results; searching for a string contained in the material name yields unpredictable results!)
4. If the image exists, you will be presented a link for immediate download, or you can assign it to your download basket.
HTH.
