Cannot insert a picture (image - BLOB) directly into a report field?

Hello
I am new to APEX and I am trying to create a table with an image together with an input form and an output report but I am having difficulty in displaying the image in the report field.
My work so far:
1 I am using APEX to generate a table with a BLOB, Filename and Last_Update_Date fields.
2 I have followed the article on the http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm.
3 The title is: 'Defining and Viewing BLOB Data in Oracle Application Express 3.1'
4 I have generated the table, form and report.
5 I have downloaded the image as an attachment and inline on the form Ok.
6 I have successfully downloaded an image on the report with the words image as a link in the report field. Note the http path is: http://glkas0892v.greenlnk.net:7777/pls/htmldbDEV/apex_util.get_blob_file?a=475&s=7094501042405784&p=3&d=1360784770040764381&i=1360783771822764369&p_pk1=123&p_pk2=&p_ck=2F17C4FBDE22B25A02026F67AB59D4F0&p_content_disposition=inline
7 I have unsuccessfully tried to insert the image directly into a report field itself. The report displays the picture as a symbol with a cross.
Note the http path is: http://glkas0892v.greenlnk.net:7777/pls/htmldbDEV/apex_util.get_blob?s=7094501042405784&a=475&c=1360779972416764351&p=2&k1=&k2=&ck=4BFA878ADD2028D2E9B127BB03F78B8D&rt=CR
7a I have reduced the size of the images to 20 by 30 pixels but no joy.
Conclusion
The only difference I can see is that in 6 the command in the path is apex_util.get_blob_file? But in 7, unsuccessful, the command in the path is apex_util.get_blob?
Please help me as there must be some one out there who has experienced the same situation.
Thanks
Brian

My colleague has found the answer. A known fault exists within APEX 3.1 in that the Blob declaration must be after the Last update declaration and then the image displays correctly on the report.

Localized symbols in keyword field in rules and queries

Hello!
Has anyone successful used localized symbols (not English ones) during rule or queries creating?
In User Guide I did not find any objection against it. I successfully created inspection rule. But when when I run a report on this rule it ends with PSOD.
Any help would be so great!
With best regards,
Maxim

Hi there. I think you need to move the casting statement before you assign the transaction number. So the code would be:
WA_ZHEADER TYPE table of ZTMW_HEADER_COM initial size 0
and i am using field symbols as header
field-symbols : <fs1_header> type ztmw_header_com
and then I am Assigning it
assign wa_zheader to <fs1_header> casting.
<fs1_header>-transaction_num = transaction_num.
append <fs1_header> to wa_zheader.
I hope this helps.

Can You Use A Report Field Value In A Hyperlink?

I have a report field that I would like to be a link to another application. Making a report field a hyperlink to a web page was nice and simple. However, I was expecting to be able to use the value of the field in the hyperlink something like...<a href="http://mywebsite/controller?action=servlets.ReportAlertDetailListAction&key={AlertSearch.ALERT_KEY">http://mywebsite/controller?action=servlets.ReportAlertDetailListAction&key={AlertSearch.ALERT_KEY</a>}...where AlertSearch is the table name and ALERT_KEY is the field name. Is there a way to use a report field in a hyperlink? Would using a formula allow it to be dynamic? The goal is to have each row of the report link to a URL with a different parameter. I can see eventually redoing it as a drill down feature but the detail I need already exists in a separate application.Thanks,Ed

Hi Ed.
I believe the conditional formula that you would use (don't just type in the text box - press the button for the formula first).
"[http://mywebsite/controller?action=servlets.ReportAlertDetailListAction&key | http://mywebsite/controller?action=servlets.ReportAlertDetailListAction&key]=" + {AlertSearch.ALERT_KEY}
The key is toÂ use the conditional formula feature of the hyperlinkÂ feature.Â
Enjoy!Â

Code for reports field

Hello,
In Administration -> Setup -> Business Partners -> Countries there is a field called 'Code for Reports'. Does anyone know what this field is for? I thought it was for possibly putting in a different variation of the country code, e.g UK instead of GB to be displayed on printouts however it is not being displayed when i print preview/print.
Any advice is appreciated.
Many thanks,
Kate

Hi Gordon,
I've tried displaying code on the print layout too but this does not get pulled through either. I would like to use the 'code for reports' field to display 'UAE' instead of 'AE'. 'AE' is the default country code for United Arab Emirates which cannot be changed however the users would like to see 'UAE' instead.
Kind regards,
Kate

Multiple report fields from single physical column.

Hi Experts,
I have a physical table like below. Multiple records for a single customer id. The no of Address_type may increase in future.
Customer_id     Address_Type         Address
101                  Primary                   abcdefgh
101                  Secondary               234oij3mb4
101                  Billing                      mdmnweoij4
102................etc.
My Requirement on OBIEE is to display report as below.
Customer_ID, Primary_Address, Secondary_Address, Billing_Address.
101                 abcdefgh            234oij3mb4               mdmnweoij4
Multiple report fields ( Primary_Address, Secondary_Address, Billing_Address ) are derived from same physical column ADDRESS.
I tried to duplicate the Address column on the report thrice and added conditions like Address_Type = Primary/Secondary/Billing for those three fields respectively.
But only of the field is getting correct data and rest of duplicate columns are null.
Tried FILTER function on OBI Answers, but the function fails saying it should be used only on measures.
Thought the alternative would be to define multiple logical columns at BMM layer. Created multiple alias for same table at physical layer and correspondingly created LTS for each on a single logical table. Defined Fragmentation/Where conditions.
LTS1 - Address_Type = PRIMARY
LTS2 - Address_Type - SECONDARY
LTS3 - Address_Type - BILLING
Created multiple logical columns from each LTS like Primary_Address, Secondary_Address, Billing_Address from LTS1, LTS2, LTS3 respectively.
This time, am getting data for all the fields on the report but getting cartesian result.
Can someone guide me whether my approach is correct or any other alternate best approach to achieve the desired result.
Note: I have the data Address on multiple physical rows for a customer, rather Not in a single row. which is causing me problem.
Thanks...
Ramchand.

Hi Srini VEERAVALLI,
I have lot many other fields in the same report coming from other tables.
Does the Pivot table option for above mentioned Address fields affect other columns?
If Yes, Can there be any other alternative? Am thinking of Opaque View at Physical layer to bring all Addresses on a single row.
Thanks...
Ramchand.

Crystal Reports Field Explorer not showing

Hi,
I am using Visual Studio 2003 with the bundled version of Crystal Reports. It has always worked fine until recently the Field Explorer tool bar does not show up anymore when I open a Crystal Report for development. I have uninstalled the entire Visual Studio and reinstalled the Visual Studio but it still will not show the Crystal Reports Field Explorer. However, if I install the Visual Studio on a completely different computer it works fine. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this problem on my main computer? Could it be a setting somewhere in the Visual Studio? I cannot find any information on this problem.
Thanks,
Razzle

Ok, I figured out what the problem was. It was something wrong in my Windows profile. So I deleted my Windows profile and created a new one and it is working now.

Dynamically set report field value

In my old classic VB project, I was able to set a report field value using the following simple line of code.
someReport.SomeField.SetText u201Cabcu201D
This was nice and simple, now with crystal reports .Net I do the following:
((TextObject)someReport.SectionX.ReportObjects["SomeField"]).Text = u201Cabcu201D;
Itu2019s simple enough but seems too elaborated compared to the good old VB6.
Not that is a big deal but is there a simpler way (Classic VB6 style) to set a field on a report without me having to create my own utility method to u201Csimplifyu201D things?
Thanks.

Perhaps using a formula?
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Dim Report As New CrystalReport1()
Dim FormulaFields As FormulaFieldDefinitions
Dim FormulaField As FormulaFieldDefinition
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
FormulaFields = Report.DataDefinition.FormulaFields
FormulaField = FormulaFields.Item(0)
FormulaField.Text = "[formula text]"
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Report
End Sub
Other than that, InProc RAS, but if the solution you have is complicated, you ain't seen nothing yet

To Display Currency /Currency Symbol in Report

Hi All,
Business Requirement:
Want to see Actual and Headcount in same column along with currency.
currently we have separate column for headcount and Actual as below. (Actual and headcount will not come in same row.)
Company
Actual
Headcount
C1
$ 1000
C1
10
C2
$ 1000
C2
20
C3
$ 2000
C3
20
C4
$ 3000
C4
30
To display both in same column , I have used NOT function in formula and displayed the report as Below.
Company
Act&HC
C1
1000
C1
10
C2
1000
C2
20
C3
2000
C3
20
C4
3000
C4
30
I have calculated the above column using NODIM, so we are not getting $ symbol in report.
But business want that symbol to appear along with Actual value ($ 1000).
Please suggest if there is any way to do this.
Thanks,
Jaya

Hello Jay,
I think Koen Hesters is right. If you use you currency from your unit-dimension you will be able to get currencies in a separate column but not with the figures attached.
The only thing is that you will get # or not-assigned for the headcount values. If you are using BO tools on top of this BEx report then there is a chance to display currency also in the same column for the Actual values.
Here check the sample scenario which i tried to develop by looking at your data :

Making dynamic links from report fields

Is there a way to make report fields link to differnt websites? I can't use the 'link' tool in 'editing' option of making the report because the link will not be the same for each record in the database. The field itself is actually the address of the website I want to be able to link to. So essentially, what I want to do is something like: ..but this does not work. Does anyone know if this is possible??
Thanks!

You can use SQL report to do this:
Suppose the column which contains the web addressed is called url_column, your SQL
will be something like
select htf.anchor(url_column, name) from the_table
Then in the Column Formatting page,
set the "Display as" for column url_column as HTML.
Run the report and the values form that column will be a url which links to other web sites

Summing up the report fields

Post Author: jehanzeb
CA Forum: Formula
Afternoon all,
Just wondering how can you summarise a report field. I have the total number of jobs field which displays the total number of jobs any person has done at any one time. Now in the report I want to add up all the jobs which has been done by all users.
Example:
Name - Total Jobs
James- 10
Andrew-11
Total = 21
The above example shows the total number of jobs both (James and Andrew) performed.
How can I achieve this?
*I have tried the formula field - however, it says "This field cannot be summarised".
Formula used " DistinctCount ({#Total Jobs}) "
Please help!
Many thanks
Regards
Jehanzeb

Not to worry I have resolved the issue.
I had to create the summary (E) type icon and choose the fields to summarise the report field. Sometimes you miss obvious things!! :-D
anyhow it has been fixed so closing this thread.

How Make the Report Fields Read only

Hi I have drop down selection in a Report field.After selecting a particular value and submiting it the field should become readonly.

Hi SanjayBala!
Create a conditional branch that will be executed if your select list submits (the branch must be conditional. The conditiontype is request = e1 and e1 is the name of your select list). This Branch ought to have a request (lets say select_list_ro). Create a read only condition for your select list (request = e1) that comes to use if the current request is select_list_ro.
Hope that helps!
yours sincerely
