XML Publisher report default output in Excel format.

Hi,
We have defined one concurrent program whose output format is text, this concurrent program executable is PL/SQL and in this PL/SQL program we are generating XML data and displaying XML using below fnd_request.
l_conc_id := FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST('GMP','GMPPDROP','', '',FALSE,
p_sequence_num,chr(0),'','','','','','','','','','','',
We have also defined template for this.
Using below fnd_request we are choosing template and data is getting generated in PDF format. Now our requirement is to display the output by default in Excel format.
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST('XDO','XDOREPPB','', '',FALSE,'',
l_conc_id,554,G_comb_pdr_temp,
G_comb_pdr_locale,'Y','RTF','',scale_report,'','','','','',
When i saw XML Report Publisher concurrent program, there is one parameter for Output Format and i tried passing 'Excel'/EXCEL/excel to this parameter but output is still coming in PDF format.
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST('XDO','XDOREPPB','', '',FALSE,'',
l_conc_id,554,G_comb_pdr_temp,
G_comb_pdr_locale,'Y','RTF','Excel',scale_report,'','','','','',
I have also tried giving Default Output to EXCEL in template definition but this is also not working.
Your valuable suggestions highly appreciated.
Thanks
Vijay

Hi;

Reports with output to excel - special characters not displayed correctly.

Hi,
I have a portal with data from 5 continents. In many places special or national characters are used in names. My portal can show most of these characters correctly and so can my version of Microsoft Office Excel. When text with these characters are copy/pasted from the screen to an excel sheet, they are also shown correctly in excel. The problem arises in portal reports, where output is set to Excel, then special characters are often displayed as strange double characters, for example á is shown as Ã¡ . Does anybody have a solution to that?
Thanks
Arne

No answers have been posted yet and now I have found a solution myself. The portal report is run and output set to Excel. The resulting file is opened, and a new row is inserted in the top of the sheet. In the first field in this row is written the characters *\xEF\xBB\xBF*. It is called a UTF-8 BOM, and when written in the start of a text file, it will tell the program that opens it, that UTF-8 encoding is used. 
The file is saved with the file type CSV (semicolon separated) (*.csv) and excel is closed. When you click on the CSV-file, it is opened by excel, and now all characters with accents, circumflexes and umlauts are shown correctly. 
The solution was found here: http://www.roosmaa.net/importing-utf-8-csvs-in-excel/

The best way to get reports 6i output into Excel 97

Hi there,
I have a number of graphical reports that have a few group levels. These generate HTML or PDF output ok.
I want to get the output to look as close to the HTML/PDF output from Report Server or Runtime into Excel 97.
Outputting as HTML and importing into Excel does not work very well as Excel places all the horizontal data into one cell! This works perfectly in Excel 2000 but our client does not have this licenced so it is not a solution.
I have thought about outputting as delimited output. This has the effect of placing all the parent group information on each detail line (it is like the group by clause has been removed if you did something similar in SQL*Plus) along with all the prompts and it looks a real mess and takes up many columns in Excel 97.
What is the best way to approach this?
Cheers,
John

If this is a client/server app, then you could use ole or dde to put the data directly into Excel.

Just check the program. The code given in bold is what you have to use.

Report Builder: output to Excel removes leading zeros

I'm trying to use the Report Builder to output a numeric
field to EXCEL , but on numbers that start with zero EXCEL removes
the leading zero's. ex. 00123 becomes 123.
Is there something that I can put in the expression builder
on the field to overcome this.
I've tried concatonating a single quote on the front of the
field but the single quote shows up on the output. I've tried this
on both the SQL and on the expression builder.
I've read on some of the posts where people have tried using
'mso-number-format:"\@'" within a TD tag but I can't seem to get
the syntax right inside the Expression Builder.
Has anybody got any suggestions?

Excel will remove leading zeros in a numeric field because it is treating the column as numeric. Putting a ' in front of the number forces Excel to treat the column as text.

Report 10g output in excel problem

Dear Members,
I am using forms 10.1.2.0.2. I am calling the report from Forms parameter. I have passed the report_desformat=SPREADSHEET. But when i run the report it shows nothing and no out put is generated.
Please help me to find out the problem.
Parameter forms code is as under.
PROCEDURE rep_call (p_rep in char, p_param in paramlist) IS
report_id report_object;
mJob_ID varchar2(200);
mRep_Status varchar2(200);

 else

end if;
END;
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
1- Are you getting a blank output? or nothing is happening when you call the report from Forms?
2- What is the status of the report job in Reports Queue manager?
3- Try to run the same report with the same parameters from the browser URL and compare behavior.
e.g
http://hostname:port/reports/rwservlet?report=<report name>&server=<reports server name>&destype=cache&desformat=spreadsheet&paramform=no&userid=user/pass@db&any_other_parameter=value ....

SQL TASK OUTPUT IN EXCEL REPORT

Hello all,
I need a help ...
I create a sql task . From sql task I call a SP and i think its work well as there is no error show.
I need to use that output result in a excel sheet.But i can't find any variables use place in excel connection manager where i can revive that variable output.
or there any other way to call a sp and report that output in excel.I am also try to use that variable in OLE DB Source but its not work there .
I m using ssis 2010 version.
Thanks for help

I am not 100% sure what you try to overcome, but seems you only need some general guidance.
If you are unfamiliar with SSIS start with a simple tutorial like: How to Export Query Results to Excel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wF_Bd-4yWr0
In your case the stored procedure acts like a query.
Good Luck!

Hello,
If your question is about the format spreadsheet, it is not possible from Reports Builder :
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/topics/htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs/rwwhthow/whatare/output/output_a_simpleexcel.htm
Restrictions
It is not possible to generate spreadsheet output directly from Reports Builder. Instead, on the command line, you can run the report using rwrun or Reports Server clients (rwservlet, rwclient, rwcgi), with DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET. You cannot store DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET as a system parameter value in the report definition (.rdf file).

Sending report output to Excel

Dear buddies
I'm using OLE Object in my report to send its output to excel. I find this way from an example at the same forum. But I feel that this example is for very small sized reports which have to send a few cells to excel because in this method we've to map each boiler plate and data field to excel like this.
function B_DEPTNOFormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
RPT2XLS.put_cell(1, 'DEPTNO', FontColor => 10, FontSize => 8, FontStyle => RPT2XLS.BOLD);
RPT2XLS.new_line;
return (TRUE);
end;
In this way its very hard to map large reports to excel which have more than 50 or 60 data fields and labels. So is there any short way to send its output to excel. Be careful that I also dont wanna use Delimited option coz Delimited file has also to be formatted while importing to Excel. Is there anyway that OLE Object should automatically detect all my Report Labels and fields or some other solution in yours minds???

If you are using 10g reports you can use the latest parameter desformat=spreadsheet

Hi,
I can't answer to all your questions, however I can tell you that:
2) The directory where to put the report file is specifiend in a file named
<serverName>.conf
in the sourceDire property
<property name="sourceDir" value="/directory/dove/mettere/i/report"/>
that you can find under ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf
3) The URL is
http://<server IAS address>:<port number>/<jsp file path>/<repName>.jsp?server=<report server name>&userid=<user>/<pwd>@<DB conn string>[&<param>=<valore>[&...]]
5) In IE you have only to set the previous URL in the address bar.
Hope this helps you

I have reports which output is coming in HTML format & the same I want to use in Excel.
So tell me how I can covert the same in Excel.
Thanks
Sudhir

hello,
in your case, you might want to make the following :
a) use DESFORMAT=HTML
b) use MIMETYPE=application/vnd.msexcell (or whatever mimetype your excel application is bound to)
i am nor sure if excel will understeand our HTMLCSS (which is actually HTML4.0 using layers for best possible rendering of the paper page in the browser).
