Problem in creating file on local machine

Question

Hello everbody...
i m using forms and reports 6i
i m creating file out_file := Text_IO.Fopen(:filepath || '.csv', 'a'); using this command in before_report trigger. And closing file in after_report trigger.
here filepath is = \\IP address of local machine\d$\file name
now problem is that if i m giving IP address of local machine then its giving error ORA-39856.
And if i m giving IP address of server machine then it is going to create file on server machine from local machine.
Why its not creating file on client machine?
i think there r problems related to rights
can anyone has solution then please tell me

Answer 1

yes in report there is report output and with that it also creating file in coding by
out_file := Text_IO.Fopen(:filepath || '.csv', 'w');
this open stmt is written in before report trigger
Below lines r written for each row thats fetch by report main query.
str := rpad(:apt_bil_no,8,' ') || ',' || lpad(:apt_bil_dt,10,' ') || ',"' ||
               rpad(:supl_name,30,' ') || '",' || rpad(:supl_tin_no,11,' ') || ',' ||
               rpad(:aptvat_hsn_no,10,' ') || ',' ||
               lpad(ltrim(to_char((apt_amt2 - apt_vat_amt2),'999999990.00')),12,' ') || ',' ||
               lpad(apt_vat_amt2,12,' ') || ',' ||
               lpad(ltrim(to_char(apt_amt2,'999999990.00')),12,' ');
Text_IO.Put(out_file, str);
Text_IO.New_Line(out_file);
file is closing in after report trigger.
text_io.fclose(out_file);
now i wants to create this file on local machine.
yes using report server and its started window service.
can u have any idea?
