SRW.RUN_REPORT_OBJECT 10gR2 from Forms

Dear all,
I describe my situation :
I have an application Forms 9 installed in a server A.
I have a report server instance 9 running in server A.
I have a report server instance 10gR2 running in server B.
The report of the report instance of server A run succefuly when i run them from the Application Forms.
I want to run a report from the application Forms using SRW.RUN_REPORT_OBJECT in the server B . Haw can i precise to use report instance of the server B in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT.
It's possible to do that with SRW.RUN_REPORT_OBJECT ?
Should i pass the IP of the server or use tnsnames.ora ?
With rwservlet i can precise the IP of the Report Server in the URL Haw to do that with SRW.RUN_REPORT_OBJECT ?
Many thanks for your urgent help.

Hi Frank
Actually, today it looks like I was wrong. Now I CAN reproduce the problem - and now... the interesting part comes:
It doesn't seem to have anything at all to do with the number of reports in the "Past Jobs". Instead, this problem seems to occur each time, that I run the application in "DEBUG MODE" - you know, "?debug=yes". I have 2 machines - a test machine (T) and a development (D) machine. To clarify, here's what I did:
1. On T, I start up a WebForms session without "?debug=yes". The report runs correctly without any errors.
2. On T, I close the Forms session and start it again with the "?debug=yes" parameter.
3. On D, I connect to the debug session with the port number provided.
4. On T, I now try to run the same report as before. Now Forms fails with "FRM-41213 Unable to connect to the Report server rep_(servername)" and after that, as mentioned "REP-56033: Job 0 does not exist"
I have logged a TAR under "DENMARK AND ICELAND" with ID 2507245.995, if you want to assist the support analyst.

FRM-92101-Did any one migrate to 10GR2 from Forms 6 generated by Designer 6

I am using designer 6 PLLs . We are migrating to 10GR2; Recompiled all plls in 10GR2 and it is throughing FRM92101 for all Tabbed forms. Upon debugging it is breaking at the OFGTAB.pll.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks.

oops!!
Kindly excuse me i totally missed the error code.
Did you compare designer plls for 10GR2 designer?
It is possible that some procedures/packages are obsolete.
I would recommend to use 10g Designer plls.

Run_Report_Object -- Calling report from Form

Hello:
Where can I find a technical notes on VALID combination of system parameters in calling report using run_report_object from FORMS in 10G?
Not sure what are valid values and combinations. Do we HAVE to pass a REPORT SERVER along with run_report_object? what formats are valid along with destype etc?
Thanks

Passing parameter to report from form using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT method

Will you please let me know how to do this. I tried using run_product but it is giving error as too many declarations. So I decided to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, but no help is provided how to pass paramters to this routine from FORMS to REPORTS.

If you just want to change the heading of a column dynamically, you can go with any of the two options. For both the options, you need to remove the static text and replace it with any dummy field (ensure the reference of field w.r. to repeating frame)
1. Use the Format Trigger and change the heading to either "school" or "college" based on your field value.
Ex.
If :<field_name> = 'S'
then :dummy_field := 'School'
Else
:dummy_field := 'College'
End If;
Return (true)
2. Another option is similar to this and uses a CF.
(I would prefer CF).
Warm Regards,
Raja.

How to use parameter forms with run_report_object from Forms?

Hi,
I would like to run a rep report from Forms 9i. I have 9iAS R2 with a rep_<maschine_name> report server.
Untill now I run reports with run_report_object and then used web_show_doc to display the PDF output. Now I have to display a parameter form first and only then can I run the report. Currently I am a bit lost and do not know how to do this? Could some one please point me to some examples or docs?
Thanks in advance.

Unable to run reports from forms using run_report_object

Hi All,

Sanjay Hi
You have to create a report object within the form.
If you look at the Object NAvigator in the Form Builder right below Record Group
tou would see an option for Report. Create a new report object.
Set the following properties for that object
Filename - This should be the name of your RDF file you created from Report Builder along with the full path.
Set the Execution Mode, Communication Mode and Report Destination Type as per your requirements.
In the parameter for find_report_object() pass the name of the report object you created.
eg.
if the name of the report object you created is Report2 then
your call should be rep_id := find_report_object('Report2') .
You are calling the report object which has been created in your form builder and through that call you are running the report file specified in the Filename property of that report object.

Using destype=WEBDAV from FORMS - run_report_object

Hi,
I'm trying to get WebDAV as output for my reports, invoked from forms. Read on if you might have a clue for my problem...
Downloaded the plugin for Oracle 9i Reports (9.0.2) to send the output to a WebDAV location.
This works fine when I tested it with a reports server and a browser URL to start the report like:
http://<machine:port>/reports/rwservlet?report=a.rdf&destype=WEBDAV&desformat=pdf&desname=<DAV URL>/myreport.pdf&userid=<unpw>
Output is created on the DAV location i expected.
This also works when invoking this URL from within forms with a web.show_document.
But I definitely want to get this functionality up and running using run_report_object and that is where I kick against the wall: to specify the destype, I only seem to be able to specify it using:
set_report_object_property(v_report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,x);
where x stands for PRE-DEFINED keywords like CACHE, FILE etc. (without quotes)
Passing the value for destype using add_parameter(parlist_id, 'DESTYPE', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'WEBDAV'); doesn't work, FRM-41214 Unable to run report is displayed.
Anybody a clue?
Kind Regards,
Marc Vahsen

Marc,
this has been filed as a bug against Forms and will be fixed in Forms 10.0.3 (note that the upcoming Forms version is Forms 10g (9.0.4)).Not sure to this time if the fix can be provided earlier.

Report not working from forms.

Hi
we are beginners and please help us.we have installed in LAN database 11g on vista
and application server 10g on os 2003.
we are developing some applications from our developer pc in vista and using developer suite 10g.
we want to generate some reports and call them from forms.
This is the code in when button pressed.

-- host('c:\mtb-erp\ansu.lis');
END IF;
END;
we are struck and unable to proceed.Actually when we run the report from report builder it works.we are calling the report from application server.
Also if we replace the above web.show document with this statement it works but even though it gives FRM-41214 error.
web.show_document('http://ansuya.mtbnet.local:8889/reports/rwservlet?destype=cache&desformat=html&report=\\mbxserver\developers\emp.jsp&userid=scott/tiger@mbxsql&paramform=no');
One more doubt , is it possible if we don not want to show the report in a browser in case of client server locally in lan
but just generate the report from forms and save it in local folder like we do in previous old versions.If so please guide us.
Thanks in advance.

How to call jsp web report from forms 9i

Dear fellows,
How can i call a jsp report from forms 9i.
Thanx
Mochoo

Use web.show_document instead of Run_Report_Object. If the jsp contains a paper layout you can still use Run_Report_Object, but you have to specify the filename extension .jsp along with the filename.

vikas

Vikas,
So, is your code producing an error when your report is called? Also, it would be helpful to know your Forms and Reports versions. Is ":p_season_year" set up as a USER_PARAMETER (UP) in your report or is it a true lexical parameter (meaning you should reference it with '&' instead of ':')? If it is a UP, the typical way to pass a value to this UP from Forms is to use a ParamList object instead of the REPORT_OTHER parameter of the Set_Report_Object_Property built-in. For example:
DECLARE
   pl_id    ParamList;
   pl_name VARCHAR2(10) := 'REPORT34';
   v_rep VARCHAR2(1000);
   rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
   pl_id := Get_Parameter_List(pl_name);
   IF id_null(pl_id) THEN
      pl_id := Create_Parameter_List(pl_name);
   END IF;
   Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'P_SEASON_YEAR', TEXT_PARAMETER, :SALE_ORDER.SEASON_YEAR);
   repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT( 'REPORT34' );
   v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid, pl_id);
   ... rest of your code here ...
END;Hope this helps,
Craig B-)
