Rearrange output pages with Oracle Reports

Hi
I'm using Oracle Reports Builder 10g and I need help on this subject:
I'm developing a report divided in sections that reference statistics of the partitions present in an IBM Machine. Each page in the first section appears also in the other sections of the reports, i.e. the first page of the first section (with data from partition A) has the same layout than the first page of the second section (with data from partition B in this case), which is page 14 on the final pdf report, and so on.
For each 'kind' of page in the final report I use a repeating frame that fills a whole page in the page layout in reports builder (the parameter is the partition), so I get n output pages for each page in the rdf file (n is the number of partitions). The problem: in the resulting pdf output file, the first page of first section appears first, then the first page of second section, and so on. I need the pdf to be arranged in the correct order.
Can someone help me on this subject?
Thanks and regards,
Alex

Error Handling On a Page with a Report

Hi guys.
I have a page with a report region on it. The report is based on an External Table.
If i load a file that does not conform to the format the External Table definition is expecting, I Get an 'ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH callout
ORA-30653: reject limit reached' error.
I am happy that an error is generated but my question is this?
How can I handle this exception and others when there is just a report region on a page.
I basically wish to capture 'ORA-30653: reject limit reached' and display an friendly error message to the user in the report region.
Any help would be most welcome.
Duncan

One way to handle this that I have seen is
a. configure your external table with REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED
b. specify a BADFILE badfile.txt.
c. Create another external table on that badfile.txt with the same access parameters as your original table but specify all the columns as VARCHAR2(4000), so nothing is rejected.
d. Create another report region on the external table on badfile.txt, call it "Load errors"
So, you would have 2 report regions on the page, one would read your datafile and the other would read the badfile.
Hope this helps.

Have a look at the reports help for the purpose header and trailer sections. Here is an exert:
"Report sectioning enables you to define multiple layouts in the same report, each with a different target audience, output format, page layout, page size, or orientation. You can define up to three report sections, each with a body area and a margin area: the names of the sections are Header, Main, and Trailer. By default, a report is defined in the Main section. In the other sections, you can define different layouts, rather than creating multiple separate reports. If you wish, you can use the margin and body of the Header and Trailer sections to create a Header and Trailer page for your reports."

12 Vertical panels per page in oracle report 10g

Hi,
I need to create a report which is having 12 constant pages (12 logical pages). So i changed the Vertical panels per page of the reports main section to 12 (50 is max supported by oracle). And in the paper layout i have to drag the main repeating frame to 12th page (i.e from 1st page to 12th page). but it shows 10 pages in reports paper layout without margin. If i on the edit margin then it shows 12 pages. But if i on the edit margin i can able to drap the my frame. So any way to do that.
Pls help me to short out this.

Hi
Thanks for your suggestion.
However we have conluded the answer with my manager' help.
Here is how :
After spending many hours, finally we didi as below :
Develop Data model with relevent query.
Develop report laoyout using reportg wizard with 'No Template'(do not make manual layout).
Now select the very first outer frame and extend this frame to three or four pages as per requirement.
(Do not change any other layout coordinae values)
Now run the report, the report will give expected output.

Easiest and/or best methods for generating XML output (not with a report)

Hi, several of our EBS customers (11.5.10) are converting their PDF reports to use XML/BI publisher to produce output. The data stream comes from a report that generates the XML output, and then the XML template is applied. This works great ... no problems, etc. From what I have read, however, Oracle intends to treat the traditional Forms and Reports Developers as legacy tools (although still supporting them, of course).
My question is if I wanted to ditch using Reports to generate XML output, what, in your opinion or in your current usage, is the easiest way of getting this data? In Reports, the data modeler is excellent in providing a method to write your queries, split them into different repeating groups, write formula and summary columns, link multiple queries, etc, etc. If one were to become Reports Developer free, what comparable tools are available to take its place? I would expect this tool to handle a mix of GUI and coding like the Reports data modeler. Please note that I'm not looking for an EBS-specific solution -- say for a custom application using regular Oracle 10g DB and iAS, with BI Publisher for reporting.
Thanks for your feedback,
Ryan

What I'm looking for is to not use Oracle Reports to generate the XML data output since Oracle's statement of direction is pushing BI Publisher rather than Oracle Reports as the preferred tool for reporting. That said, the data modeler in Reports provides a very flexible tool to construct and link multiple queries and to manipulate the queries into several levels of a master/detail relationship. Further, the mix of GUI and coding makes setting up the data model a lot more efficient. What I'm looking for (and I don't know if anything exists) is something comparable that can be used to generate XML output from the DB -- the idea being that I wouldn't use legacy tools, like Reports, for this task. I hope that is clearer.
Really, another way of answering my question is, aside from Reports and the APIs mentioned so far, what are my fellow developers using, if anything, to extract XML data in a way that handles the features i list above?

How to remove space between pages in Oracle Reports 6i?

Hi,
I have customized one oracle report (rdf). Earlier, the standard report was showing the ouput in pages i.e. there exists space beteen the pages. But I want my custom report in such a way that it should show me the result in one page i.e. there should be no space between the pages as user wants to spool the output into excel sheet (xls format) after getting the result output obtained from my custom report. Presently, when i spool the data into excel sheet, there is still the space exists between the pages like...few records will come then white space...then records.
How can I remove this space, so that user can easily spool the data into excel without existence of white space.
Any sort of help on this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Sumir Chawla

Hi,
My report is running on Unix. When I checked the output file in unix where it is getting generated, i saw ^L characters wherever the space appears when i see the output in apps (notepad) , like after every page where I am able to see the space in my output, there ^L is appearing in output file in unix, so how can I avoid this.
I tried to adjust the frames and repeatinf frames also, even i tried changing the properties also of main region (body), but nothing is working for me and still the same issue occurs. I am not aware of this. Please suggest me.
Thanks a lot!

Sumir
