Reports 6i -- How to create an HTML form template before form processing

Hello Oracle Reports Gurus,
I'm using Oracle Reports 6i and trying to create an HTML form WITHOUT using the Oracle Reports 6i parameter form builder. The goal: to take a web page already in existence containing a form with checkboxes and radio buttons and make it 'transparent' to my users in hooking it to Oracle Reports. So far, I made my HTML page (with form and all) a "header" file for my Oracle report and didn't place anything in the parameter form builder. However, upon doing so, Reports 6i decided to be extra helpful and place form elements into the Parameter form builder.
So,
1) Is there a way to take a web page with a form and all and easily "plug it" into Oracle Reports 6i WITHOUT using the Parameter Form builder?
2) Is there another way to create an HTML form that will allow me to have radio buttons, checkboxes, etc?
Thanks in advance from this Oracle Reports newbie,

lee,
i am not exactly sure what you are trying to do. since you state you use HTML, i assume you are running 3-tier with the report server, right ?
if so, the easiest way to hook your parameter form up to your report is to just pass the URL to the report as the action URL for your form.
in 9i/10g we provide the Reports Web source, which is based on JSP and allows you to paste HTML into your report to create a highly customized HTML parameter form.
i am afraid in 6i, we don't provide a way to actually combine your HTML form ito the report. it needs to stay separate, but can link to the report using the way i described above.
thanks,
ph.

    Hi...
    Its better to create the Exchange Rates in a Data Form than in an Data Grid, so that you can easily Import and Export the form and even can feed the values easily....
    Select the POV like in Scenario-Actual,Year-Your particular year,Period-In Period Dimension do not choose any option so that it can be selected in Columns and Rows,View--the same as Period Dimension,Entity-[None],Value-<Entity Currency>,Account-Do Not select ,ICP- [ICP None],Custom 1-[None], Custom 2-[None], Custom 3-[None], Custom 4-[None]...
    In Columns Select Scenario -Actual,Period-{[Fourth Generation]},Currency-#USD(Default Currency)
    In Rows Select-Account-A#AVGRATE,View-w#Periodic,Currency-C2#EUR
    A#AVGRATE.w#Periodic.C2#CFA and so on for rest of the currencies....

  • How to create a dynamic link in a Form to link to a specific FOLDER

    Hello,
    I have created a reports of all employees of my department.
    This reports shows me the empno and ename
    When I clicked on a empno ( for example empno = 1 ) then then I got a MASTER DETAIL FORM about that employee(empno = 1) .
    Who he or she is and which course he or she had followed.
    I want create a dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM which shows me directly the folder of that employee ( in this example folder 1 ).
    If I clickt on the report with all employees of my department on an other number ( for example empno = 3333333) then if I click on the dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM I want to see the folder of employee 3333333 !!! You know what I mean ?
    What I want to know is, how to create a dynamic link that shows me directly a folder which is dependent on which empno I had clicked on in the report ( report with employee numbers and ename )
    Is there any way to pass some parameters into a link to a Folder ? Is this possible in Portal ? Does anyone know how to do this, or do you have a suggestion how to solve this problem ?
    Thanks a lot !!!
    Chu Lam

    Hi Chetan,
    I am glad that someone had replied on my question.
    I will explain it to you again.
    I have created a report that shows me all employees. If I click on a employee number then I get an MASTER DETAIL FORM on my screen with all the information(where he works now and which number I have to dial ifhow can I reach him by telephone) of that employee on which number I clicked on.
    I really like this mechanism. (You click on a number and the information that you see in the next screen is dependent of the number you clicked on ! )I have created all this. It works fine.
    What I want is to expand this example.
    Every employee has a FOLDER (yes, those ones in Content Area ) which they can insert text or image into that folder. The folder name is just the employee number. ( employee with employee number 3303, he owns a folder which is named 3303 and an employee with empno 9999, he or she owns a folder with the name 9999. )
    Every employee can tell more about himself in that FOLDER by iserting text and images. For example : What he likes, pictures of his vacation, something like this.
    What I want is this :
    If I click on the first report,which provides me all employees on screen, on a employee number 3303 then I get a Master Detail Form on my screen with all information about that employee with employee number 3303. And I want in this MASTER DETAIL FORM to create a link that shows me directly the FOLDER of that employee ( 3303), so I can learn more about employee with employee number 3303. But I don't know how to create this link.
    That link had to be dependent on the employee number. The difficult thing about this link is that this link had to be dynamic.
    I hope this will make it clear to you :
    (report all employees:)
    empno ename
    3301 john smith
    3302 peter clark
    3303 wilson jones
    If I click on a empno ( for example 3303) then I get a MASTER DETAIL FORM which provides me information.
    (MASTER DETAIL FORM )
    EMPNO 3303
    ENAME wilson jones
    department New York
    mobile number 98908763
    Company tel. no day
    AOL 097485838 monday till wednesday
    Oracle 04848584333 thursday and friday
    LINK
    (what I want is to create a link here )
    If I click on LINK in this MASTER DETAIL FORM then I want to link to the FOLDER of this employee ! ( In this example it is FOLDER 3303.
    BUT IF I CLICKED ON THE FIRST REPORT ON A DIFFERENT NUMBER ( FOR EXAMPLE 3301) THEN IF I CLICK ON LINK IN THE MASTER DETAIL FORM THEN I HAVE TO LINKED TO FOLDER 3301.
    I just want to know how to make a link like this ( create a dynamic link to a specific folder ).
    Thanks in Advance.

  • How to create a moving text in APEX forms?

    Hi
    Can anyone help me with the procedure and the code for creating a moving text in APEX.
    Thanks in advance.

    marquee was introduced with IE (Internet Explorer) and certain versions of Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari web browsers support it.
    tell me how do you want the text to work. the easiest way will be to create an HTML region and put the marquee tag code in it
    if you fear about the compatibility of marquee with browsers or have a browser version with which marquee does not work then use JQuery
    check the following

  • How to create a web version of XFA forms

    I have created a few dynamic XFA form using Livecycle designer. They work great and is getting quite popular amoung our users. But the problem with these forms are:
    a) A lot of user using Mac are having problem opening it from their Safari browser. Its a common problem and I get tired of troubleshooting a lot users asking the same questions over and over again.
    b) A lot of users are now preferring to use it on ipads and tablets and there is simply no way to open these forms in tablets.
    I was looking for other solutions and the only method I can think of would be to render a html version of these forms in the browser and then generate the pdf file in the end after the user have completing filling it in. I have been searching on the internet and I still havent figured out how will I go about with this.
    Can someone please guide me and show me the way on were do I get started and how can I create a web version of these forms and then export the completed form in pdf?? Is there a tutorial video on this somewhere in adobe tv or youtube? Please go easy with the technical terms since my level of knowledge is still a beginner.
    I have licycle designer ES. Any help will be appreciated!

    Thank you Jono.. I was worried no one was going to talk to me.
    I will have a look at the LiveCycle Forms server product. I wonder how much they cost. I couldnt find the price there. Also I wonder if it works on Livecycle Designer ES (since I havent got ES2 or ES3 yet).
    If I was to create a standard HTML form and then process the data into XML, how do I later import it into the pdf? If there any tutorial on the web where I can learn how to do this?
    Thanx Jono...

  • Crystal Reports XI - How  to create a new field using a formula field

    I'm quite new to CR, but have been learning quickly!
    I would like to know how to automatically create a new record/field based on another field in that row...
    I have a report showing the following data:
    Run Code     Start KM    Stop KM    Status 
    H2                 100            150           Partial
    H2                 150             155          Partial
    H2                 155             160          Partial
    S3                 120             150       Completed
    The status is generated by comparing the 'Start KM' and 'Stop KM' against fields in another table called 'Start Odo' and 'Stop Odo'
    In this example...
    H2 has 'Start Odo' and 'Stop Odo' values of 90 to 160, therefore there is still 90-100 to check.  The 'Start KM' and 'Stop KM'  is equal to the 'start Odo' and 'stop Odo' for S3, therefore it shows completed.
    My question is how do you create a formula field, which will add an entire row...displaying the values 90-100.
    I've been trying to use a conditional check in the 'Start KM' column, that sees if status is equal to partial than if start km is greater than start odo (Which is the reference km) then display the value of start odo in the new row. I'm stuck at how to create a new row.
    I want the final result to look like this...
    Run Code     Start KM    Stop KM    Status 
    H2                  90              100         Partial
    H2                 100             150          Partial
    H2                 150             155          Partial
    H2                 155             160          Partial
    S3                 120             150       Completed
    Any suggestions would be more than appreciated

    Hi Adi
    Looking at your examples it seems that you want to add a row to the existing recordset (rows fetched from the database).
    If it is the case (even if based on a formula) then you can not do it within crystal. Crystal is designed to display data and ideally it should not generate the new data.
    However, as per your requirement you can try to add this logic at database end. May be a command object within Crystal Reports can help you.
    Let me know if you do not understand anything.

  • How to create add-on of a system form in sap b1 9.0?

    Hi all,
    I have a problem related to the creation of a system form add-on of sap b1 9.0.
    I can develop some projects in visual basic, but about sap b1 add-on, I know how to package files of to install (.ard and .exe files) and I also know how to register .ard file in sap b1 9.0, So I tried to register all projects found in SDK sample folder that was correct.
    I tried to do an example of project found in SDK Help Center.
    But the problem I have to day related to the creation of system form add-on.
    The steps I tried to do are:
    1. I opened SAP B1 Studio for Microsoft Visual Studio
    2. Right click my project and add the system form (Employee Master Data)
    3 Connection string I used in Command line arguments   0030002C0030002C00530041005000420044005F00440061007400650076002C0050004C006F006D0056004900490056
    4. I added one field (CFL of BPCode) to Employee Master Data.  I did n't add any reference because when I add UI API Vission 9.0 to system form or user form of sap b1 it gives errors in Menu.vb. I do know why.
    5. I converted in 32 bit and build my project
    6. I re_opened new visual studio 2010 for creating new project with SAP B1 AddOnInstaller.NET Wizard
    7. From here I did every thing according to the video of Bryan Gomez
    Creating and Registering SAP Add-on - YouTube
    8. I registered my .ard file
    9. But when I start my add-on it gives error (Add-on connection timed out)
    The questions I want to ask,
    1. If you are creating the add-on of system form Is there any other thing needed to do more than the above  I explained?.
    2. Is it necessary to go in SDK code when you are using the system form like that?.
    3. If it is necessary to add reference of UI API  in project, how to handle error occurs when we add that the reference to the project which is using a system form?.
    Please anyone who has an idea he/she can help me.

    Hi pallavi p,
    That's good but as I said above when I add the reference of UI API Version 9.0 in the project which has the system form or user form of sap b1 it exactly gives errors in menu.vb of the project.
    So let me give you the way you can try.
    1. Open new project/ visual basic/ sap business one/ sap business one add-on project. and save it any where
    2. Right click on your project
    3. Add new item
    4. Sap Business One
    5. System form (Employee master data) or user form
    6. Add
    And then if your form is opened
    7. Go to add the reference of UI API Version 9.0
    8. Check errors found in menu.vb (or in OutPut)
    So if it's possible try to solve that problem.
    Please anyone can help me.
