SQL query or view used internally by Discoverer Open Workbook from Database

Question

Hi Experts,
I am involved in developing a web application wherein I have to display the 'All Workbooks' similiar functionality in the 'Open Workbook from Database' dialog box of Discoverer. Can anybody provide me with the background query or view that Discoverer uses to retrieve this data for workbook listing? Please let me know if my question is confusing and requires more details.
Thanks
Thomas

Hi,
If you just need the list of workbooks then you need to use the EUL_DOCUMENT table:
SELECT u.User_Name          Owner_Name
*,Doc.Doc_Name Workbook_Name*
*,Doc.Doc_Updated_Date Last_Update_Date*
FROM   Eul_Us.Eul5_Documents Doc
*,Eul_Us.Eul5_Eul_Users Own_Usr*
*,Fnd_User u*
WHERE  Own_Usr.Eu_Id = Doc.Doc_Eu_Id AND
To_Char(u.User_Id(+)) = Substr(Own_Usr.Eu_Username
*,2*
*,10);*
If you want the exact same list then you need to do the above along with the sharing :
SELECT DISTINCT
case when instr(disco_docs.doc_created_by,'#')=0 then disco_docs.doc_created_by
when instr(disco_docs.doc_created_by,'#')>0 and instr(disco_docs.doc_created_by,'#',2)=0 then (select fu.user_name from fnd_user fu where fu.user_id=substr(disco_docs.doc_created_by,2,5))
else NULL
end "Workbook Owner/Creator",
disco_docs.doc_name "Workbook Name",
disco_docs.Doc_Updated_Date  "Last Update Date",
case when instr(disco_users.eu_username,'#')=0 then disco_users.eu_username
when instr(disco_users.eu_username,'#')>0 and instr(disco_users.eu_username,'#',2)=0 then (select fu.user_name from fnd_user fu where fu.user_id=substr(disco_users.eu_username,2,5))
else (select resp.responsibility_name from fnd_responsibility_tl resp where resp.responsibility_id=substr(disco_users.eu_username,2,5))
end as "Shared Name / Responsibility"
FROM
eul_us.eul5_documents disco_docs,
eul_us.eul5_access_privs disco_shares,
eul_us.eul5_eul_users disco_users
WHERE
disco_docs.doc_id = disco_shares.gd_doc_id (+)
and disco_users.eu_username(+) NOT IN ('EUL5', 'PUBLIC')
AND disco_users.eu_id(+) = disco_shares.ap_eu_id;
* Change the EUL_US to your discoverer schema...
Then you will need to compare the current user with the sharing list or creator
Good luck
