Reports 10g: Where's my "Compile" menu choice?

Probably a stupid question but I don't know whats wrong.
I just installed 10g Developer Suite and have loaded my 9i report. I want to re-comile the report but the compile sub-menu is not there. Is there a new way to compile reports in 10g as opposed to 9i. I see nothing in the help.
Thanks,
Wes

hi,
I have the same problem with batch compiling using rwconverter.
Most developers say that in such a way we can compile any rdf files. But the
truth is that rwcompiler not allways automatically recompiles the report.
The cases when it does compile reoport.
Here is a bit of information from report builder HELP section:
"In some cases, rwconverter automatically compiles the report's PL/SQL as part of the conversion process. Provided that your conversion destination is not a .rex file, PL/SQL is automatically compiled under the following conditions:
converting to a .rep file. If there are compile errors, rwconverter displays an error message and the .rep file is not created.
using a .rex file as the source. If there are compile errors, rwconverter displays a warning, but the conversion continues.
using a report created on another platform than the source. If there are compile errors, rwconverter displays a warning, but the conversion continues. In all other situations, you must compile the report's PL/SQL yourself (ProgramCompileAll"
The work around i have discovered is the following:
First convert the rdf to jsp.
Second convert jsp back to rdf.
In this way the reports get compiled, but there are cases when the converter
ruins the report during conversion to jsp.

In Oracle 10g, How to call a report since an option of a menu (*.mmb)

Hello
In Oracle 10g, working since the browser, how to call a report since an option of a menu (*.mmb)? I know to call it in a form (*.fmb), therefore uses the fields bean area and the objects reports, but in a menu there is not neither canvas, neither fields, neither reports. Someone would be able to help me with that?
Kisses. Thanks.
Annie

I understand that you had sent me everything,
I sent for example to you that, no to insert it in your item's menu code,
then,You have to modify it.
... but
a menu (mmb) doesn't have to define him reports
objects... then, what parameter I send to the
function FIND_REPORT_OBJECT:
This is not true
Try out this, and then let me know
You do not need to have a report object defined in the menu. It is enough to have it in forms.
I tried to call a report from the menu in the folowing way:
I created a menu and wrote the following code in one item:
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
repid := find_report_object('report2');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE, RUNTIME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_COMM_MODE, SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'reportserver1');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESNAME,'C:\p.pdf');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
END;Then I created a form with a report object called report2.
I attached the menu to this form and while running this form, I was able to successfully run the report.
In your case, you have to make sure that you have the dummy report object in each form that will have this attached menu.
You can replace by the actual report name as you have written in the code.

Parameter Where - report 10g

Hi
I have a variable vsWhere.
vsWhere := 'WHERE TABLE.COLUNM1 = 1 AND TABLE.COLUMN2 = 3'
I have too the parameter :P_WHERE in the report

Bug report: Photoshop can't record an action where you insert the menu item "Tile all horizontally".

I am running CS6 beta on Mac OS 10.7.3
Photoshop can't record an action where you insert the menu item "Tile all horizontally".
Expected behavior: add the tile all horizontally action to your actions.
Behavior: nothing happens.
This does work for Tile all vertically.

Migrating Graphs from Reports 6i to Reports 10g

While migrating Graphs from Reports 6i to Reports 10g is there a possibility of maintaining the same graphs rather than recompiling them using the Graph Wizard of Reports 10g. I have hundreds of reports with graphs and will be an uphill task to re-draft all the graphs. Kindly suggest alternatives to overcome this dead-lock.
Thanx in advance
Sridhar

Hello Sridhar,
10g is not supporting Graphics builder. So you got to create/insert all these 6i graphs in 10g. Open the 6i report and compile in 10g. It will give you file not found error. Delete the graph area in the layout editor.
Then drag the chart icon and drop in layout. Redesign again. Offcourse it is not fun. But there is no way.
Also there are tons of bugs in 10g report Graphs. You won't find some cool features like Others % option in the pie slice provided by Graphics bulider. You got to change graph.xml file for some of the features. Even the graphs looks ugly in 10g. Migrating graph reports is really frustrating in 10g. But we have no choice. Recently we migrated to 10g. Becareful with matrix reports. 10g keeps on getting crashed when ever we develop matrix report. GOD knows the reason.
But 10g has some very very good features like Distribution
Cheers.

Making PLL library code amendments effective in Reports 10G

What is necessary to cause a change to a PLL library program unit that is shared by many reports effective in all the reports?
I have read:
*[http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1021116&page=13|http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1021116&page=13] +"to make changes available you need not only to save the changes, but to delete and reattach it in the Attached Libraries node."*
Is this correct?
If so, doesn't this make PLLs pretty useless for Reports common code ?
I am using Reports 10G.
Jonathan

You can have just pll files in the directory, but Reports has to compile the library every time you use it. Therefore it is better to deploy plx files.
When you deploy at a customers site, it is always better to give them the plx files, since they cannot change the code that way.
If you get an error message deploying the plx, it probably means that the database where you developed your pll and the database where you deploy the plx are not the same. See if there are any differences (in table structure, stored procedures etc.). Maybe you have hardcoded schema owner or something in you pll.

SRW package not working in Reports 10g (9.0.4)

Dear All,
I am using reports services 10g (9.0.4) for RHEL o/s.we are using SRW pkg in our reports heavily.But when we compile reports in Linux it is showing errors like SRW.message ,SRW.set_field_char,SRW.set_format_mask must be declared.
Though these functions are well written in reports help,it is not at all supporting these functions.
What is solution for this for successfull compilation of reports??

Your not seeing the built in package for some reason.
Maybe they are missing on your Linux machine.
Reinstall reports there? Examing your environment variables?
Is that rwrun.jar anywhere?

How do I get my .csf file setting to show up in the Convert to Profile or Proof as menu choices?

I received specific menu choices for Color Settings from a commercial printer I use. I went to Edit<Color Settings and saved them as a .csf file in User/Library/Applications Support/Adobe/Color/Settings. I named the .csf file after the printer. When I go back into Edit<Color Settings and open the Settings menu I am able to choose the settings I saved from the list of settings. Now I open an image in PhotoShop and go to Edit<Convert to Profile. In the dialog box I open the Profile menu, but the settings I saved in Edit<Color Setting are not one of the Profile choices. Am I confusing Setting and Profiles? How do I Convert an image file to the setting given me by the printer? I also wanted to proof as per the printer's settings. When I go to View<Proof setup<Custom I can choose Working CMYK Web Coated SWOP 2006 Grade 3 Paper, which is generally the profile this printer is using. But I can't choice my specific color settings saved under the printer's that I previously saved in Edit<Color Settings. In the Proof Setup dialog box when I press the load button I can navigate to the Settings folder where my .csf file is saved, but it is greyed-out so I can't choose it. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Please advise/help. Thank you.

"Am I confusing Setting and Profiles?"
Yes. A Color Settings File (CSF) will contain values for all the controls in the Color Settings dialog. One of these controls specifies the profile to be used for the CMYK Working Space. That profile will be used by default when you create a new CMYK document or convert an RGB (or some other colour space) document to CMYK.
The profile, not the CSF, will be at the top of the list of CMYK options in the Convert to Profile dialog, as "Working CMYK - <name of your CMYK profile>". However, you may want to skip that dialog and instead do Image > Mode > CMYK, which will simply raise a prompt asking you whether to proceed with the conversion to your CMYK Working Space profile.
In View > Proof Setup menu, item "Working CMYK" also will use the profile that's specified in Color Settings, then "Custom..." in the same menu will give access to options to simulate paper and black ink.

Report 10g server problem

When I run a report in web from report builder, it shows in the browser as follows:
C:\Temp\docroot\MODULE5006005276.htm.
I never find or get 'http://host:8889/reports/rwservlet/'..
If I want to use web.show_document, how can I find reports service? I am confused.
I installed developer 10g, where I can start Form service. But I never find Report server seperately.
What do I need to do?

Hello,
There are 2 types of reports server :
1 - in-process reports server : "execute " the URL : http://host:8889/reports/rwservlet/getserverinfo to start it and see its name
2 - Standalone reports server : It can be started with the command :
rwserver server=repservername

I am loging in SAP. Initial screen come where it display User Menu and Sap

Dear All,
When i am loging in SAP. Initial screen come where it display User Menu and Sap Menu, but User menu is in active not showing but T code are executing then what object i have missed.
can u help me?
Thanks,
Regards,
Sachin

Hi Sachin,
It doesn't care if you're using SAP_ALL or any of those profile. That is not relevant. I had that case a few days ago, I'm not using any of those profiles and I made it work with help of one post.
If you put the transactions in the tab "Menu" of the role in the PFCG, and if you activate parameters I mentioned in a prior post, then you should see the Menu.
Tables SSM_CUST and USERS_SSM. The first is global and the other is user-especific.
The link in one of the first post of this thread hace all the info.
That should work, that worked in my case.
What values the parameters have on those tables? The more the info the better.
Updating the parameters on those tables should help. If still doesn't work then you should check another parameter using transaction RZ10 or report RSPARAM.
If my info solves your problem, points are appreciated, if not, we will try...

HT5654 where is the help menu in itunes

where is the help menu on the itunes page

"The fact that people have to resort to searching on the internet just to find the help menu is a testament to the failure of iTunes"
Good point (though I wouldn't go as far as "failure"). It is surprising that Apple haven't followed the conventions used (for example) in Microsoft's Office products where Help (via the question-mark-in-a-circle icon) is always available in the UI irrespective of the user's choices of enabling/disabling the menu bar, toolbars, ribbon, etc. Having the menu bar default to disabled also seems counter-productive - Apple may see this as "simplification" but I can't imagine that any users, other than those who make the bare minimum use of iTunes, would not want to have the functions available via the menus available at all time.
https://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html allows you to submit feedback with respect to bugs, errors, omissions, and enhancements to the iTunes development team (though the degree to which this influences development is a matter of conjecture).

Image Problem in Reports 10g

Hi Gurus,
I am using an Boilerplate in the Reports 10g. In the Property Inspection I am passing
Source File Format : Image
Source FileName : &P_IMG_LOCATION
Where &P_IMG_LOCATION is the dynamic location which is fetched from the database
For Eg . &P_IMG_LOCATION will be \\oracle\logo.bmp
But It is giving accepting &P_IMG_LOCATION in the Source FileName.
Please tell me how can i pass the location???
Best Regards,

Yeah, you can't do that. Instead, in your data model, create a formula column that is populated from &p_img_location. Then, set the "Read from File" property to "Yes" and the "File Format" to "Image". In your layout, create a new field and use the new formula column as the source.

Can't set preferences, and other greyed menu choices

Cannot set preferences for iDVD 06, and most menu choices are greyed.
[Note: this is NOT the case with all other iLife 06 applications where all menu selections are active.]
Looking through this forum I tried deleting the files in the library, as seems to be a frequent solution to everythng. This did NOT work in my case.
This is the only program in iLife06 which has this problem. All the others have active menu selection. I can't even get "About iDVD" to work!
Thanks for your help. Very frustrated.

I would start by forcing AppleWorks to create new preference files.
Quit AppleWorks and go to the Finder.
In a finder window, go:
yourname > Library > Preferences
Locate and select the folder AppleWorks and the file com.apple.appleworks.plist
Drag both to the Desktop or to the Trash (but don't empty the Trash).
Relaunch AppleWorks to check for any change.
Regards,
Barry
NOTE: This will return all preferences to their default settings. AppleWorks will construct new copies of the plist, the folder, and the files in the folder as it needs them. If you have made changes to the Button Bar, and have had no issues related to the Button Bar, you can restore those changes (probably without issues arising) by dragging the Button Bar file from the folder you moved into the new one in Preferences when it is created.
B
Edit:
While your issue does not appear to be caused by the Recent Items bug referenced in Michael's post (after "Also perhaps..", there's no danger in clearing your Recent Items folder as discussed in the linked User Tip. This is a 'regular maintenance' procedure for me.
