PDF Problem in Reports6i

Hi,
I have problem with pdf format in reports6i,
i'm usually using pdf in my reports, but i have problem with it. When I print a reports in PDF format it's always shown my old data that i have open previously, this is cause by the cache on Browser. I have to clean the cache to see the new data. But if I clean the cache, when i open the forms it'll be takes a long time, because forms downloading the jars again.
Any body ever meet this problem, by the way i'm using IE5.
Please Help.

Problem in reports6i parameter form customization

I am calling report developed under reports6i using rwservlet from j2ee web application. I was able to successfully customize the parameter form internal to report using Report Escapes properties, Before Form value and After Form value. I am using header.htm and footer.htm to render header and footer related html. I am able to use style sheet file also. Everything is working fine with this file. But when I try to repeat the same changes to another report (rdf), it is not taking the changes. No matter what I do, report is taking the settings from parameter form builder tool. When I run the report outside of web ie., from report builder, it is showing the parameter fields and labels I have made changes to, but when I run as web report it is taking the parameter fields and labels that report builder tool has. I am frustrated and do not understand, everything working fine with one report is not working with the other. Is that a bug? or am I missing something? Please help. I really appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance,
Raju

Thanks Philipp for the response. Yes I verified whether server picking the changes. That's how I found its only picking from the parameter form builder. Whatever changes I made to the actual parameter form I was not seeing. But I was seeing whatever changes I made in the parameter form builder. I do not want to use parameter form builder wizard. It's kind of weird and that's why I do not see logic behind what's going on? I am wondering is it a bug in the reports developer tool. I am using oracle reports6i (Report Builder 6.0.8.11.3).
Thanks,
Raju

Does this query bring back the correct results outside of reports in SQL*PLUS or another tool?

Using stored function in the Report Trigger

I have faced this problem in Reports6.0.
When a stored function is called in the after form trigger as
below
val := func1(abc,def);
the report is hanging
If I write like this i.e.,
select func1(abc,def) into val
from dual;
it is working fine . Is this a bug ? Or Is there any reason
behind it . Please Clarify !
ThanX in Advance !

Hi,
You can define your own PF-STATUS and in that assign the function code for BACK button anything except 'BACK'.
The code would somewhat look like this:
SET PF-STATUS 'TEST'.
write : itab-col1,
itab-col2.
in the PF-STATUS 'TEST', assign the function code to BACK button as 'BCK'.
Now in your program you can use the event AT USER-COMMAND.
In this you can handle the functionality of BACK button.
Hope this helps.

Himanshu

hello,
there are no known issues with reports and this setting. did you check your database ? maybe there is a problem on the database side or you have defined limits that would cause call to report to initiate a new session.

Though I'm not aware that I use this setting, I also have a similar problem with Reports6.0. Randomly, while running a report from a Form using the RUN PRODUCT built-in, I see the database logon Form! Would looding my connection while the report was running cause this same thing?

Problems with a query in Reports6i

Hello,
hope someone can help me with this issue. I have a query like this in my reports:
select c_id ,dat_tim,glo,utr
from ce_pro
where c_id IN ('X1200', 'X1210')
and glo not like 'null' or utr not like 'null'
group by c_id, dat_tim,glo, utr
having dat_tim between '11-JAN-2001'
and '29-JAN-2001'
order dat_tim desc,c_id asc;
If X1200 and X1210 have glo or utr like null, then this query give me other c_id(for example X909 and X880) values different from X1200 and
X1210 because they have glo not like null or utr not like null.
What I like to get is this:If X1200 and X1210 have glo and utr values like null, then my query shall only return
X1200 and X1210 with glo and utr like null. It seems like
the condition glo not like 'null' or utr not like 'null' decide the outcome of my query and not the condition c_id IN ('X1200', 'X1210'). Hope someone can help.
Best Regards

Well I can tell you this - Unless you physically store the value 'NULL' in the database, that is the reason you are not pulling back the values you expect.
If a column does not have a value, then its value is null. You can NEVER use =, <>, or like with a null value. The null value does not exist, so saying like 'null' is useless.
And besides, why are you using like in this case? Since you dont have the % % wildcards, like in this case would be equivalent to =. Both of which are not valid with null.
Hopefully this will help you a bit - if not, post the table descriptions and some sample data to show what the query is bringing back. I think you should work on the null/not null part first.

We are facing some probelms with reports6i

hai,
I am facing some probelms with reports6i.
1.when i try to mail one report it is coming in the 'eps' format.how
can i open this format.
2.we are calling the report using the command line method not
run_product.for these reports 'Generate to File' menu is not working.It say
an error like Umimplemented Error (rep-0999)
3.In one report we are using clob field.but when we take the print output of
this field some of the characters are missing in paper.the problem what we
think is that, there is no entre key padding when a word wrap is
occuring.We have to give it manually which is not applicable in all
cases.Please give some methods to solve these probelms.
Please treat this as an urgent matter.
thanking you,
dilip

If you have not set desformat you will get a file format determined by the driver of your default printer (even though you are not printing !). The file extension always seems to be .eps regardless of whether it is actually an eps (postscript) file.
You can get other formats eg. pdf by setting desformat.
If you do want to work with eps files you can download 'Ghostscript and GSView' which can display and convert them.

In Reports6i is "srw.do_sql" still applicable?

Hi guys,
I just want to know if in Oracle Reports6i the "srw.do_sql" still applicable? In report trigger afterform i have problem with this line.
srw.do_sql('create table owner.tablename (column1 char(6), column2 (varchar2(50))');
Can anyone help me solve this problem. Thank you.
Regards,
Lala

I think you forgot to write tha actual owner name !!
or does your user has the rights for DDL statements ??
SRW.DO_SQL ('CREATE TABLE ' || :owner||'.'||:tname || ' (COL1 NUMBER
NOT NULL, COL2 NUMBER (10,2))' );

Excel output in Reports6i

Hi,
I am having problem in generating excel output. I am using reports6i and i am generating output from web. While generating,i am getting the output in excel. But my problem is, in my excel output i am having a field called barcode which is a varchar2 type and having values like (7889999677)number data. So if i generated the excel output file automatically it is showing that data in excel as right aligned data cell. I want that particular cell should be left aligned since it is varchar2 type. Can anybody solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
M.C. Meenakshi

I guess that you are using DESFORMAT=DELIMITED. If so, you don't have any control over formatting etc. Remember that a delimited file only consists of data and a delimiter like 2.4;1.6;6.3;1.1;1.2!
If it's possible, install Oracle Reports10g (part of Developer Suite 10g) and use the new way to generate an Excel Report.
Metalink Note 24819.1 describes how to make a report template in MS Excel. This will be opened and customized in Oracle Reports. When running the report, MS Excel will be automatically started (or via Excel browser plugin) and display the data. Quite nice!!!

Statusformat=xml in Reports6i

Reports9i servlet has a parameter statusformat=xml which allows you to get back jobid and some statusinformations after starting them over web.
Are there any plans backport and incorporate this in a current Reports6i patch?
This would help us a lot!
Cheers, Stefan

nhmm ... what a pitty!
That makes Oracle Reports6i pretty unflexible to integrate with it!
I am looking for a generic way to handle delayed/asynchronous printing from our application ... but of course monitoring the whole process in an administration screen.
So the only way to get back a reports internal jobid to access the reports api tables for checking status is by using run_report_object in Oracle Forms. No other way (Reports OCI doesn't return anything, and websubmit also doesn't return anything).
statusformat=xml would solve our problems (and a lot of other peoples). Any chance this feature can get implemented in a upcomming patch?
Cheers, Stefan
