Hi,
i have set up a small test case on apex.oracle.com and I receive the same error if I use download format.
I have a table
test_blob (id number, name varchar2(10), blobcont blob)
If I create IR like
select
    id,
    name,
    blobcont
from test_bloband then I define download format I hit the error.
If you want this to work you have to change your query to
select
    id,
    name,
    dbms_lob.getlength(blobcont) blobcont
from test_blobAnd then again define download format for blob on blobcont column.

The number of display columns in the report reached the limit" Interactive Report

I get the error message of "The number of display columns in the report reached the limit" when trying to display less than 100 (100 is limit) columns when an aggregate has been created.   This does not happen when an aggregate has not been added to the IR report. It seems to happen because I have a control break on as well. When I turn off the control break it works but is not the result that we want. Interesting enough, if I filter the results down to 500 rows it works just fine. Does oracle treat aggregates as columns!? This is a really odd issue that I really need to clear up.

Hi Mala,
You can try out the following: Create a view on your query and in that view remove the Start Time char from the drilldown. Use this view as a data provider in the web template.

Adjust the width of a column in a report.

Hi,
How can we adjust the width of a column in a report.
We have a report with around 10 columns.
out of the 10 columns 1 column has a width of 500 char..
we want to display only the first 150 chars of that column with 50 char on first line,next 50 on second line and last 50 on third line.
i have tried using the the substr and <br> in the region source but it takes 3 lines by default even if it is not of 150 chars .I want to display it in 3 columns if it of 100+ chars.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Using the col tag is the more proper way of fixing the width of a column.
If you don't want to use the col tag, you should change your expression to:
<table style="width:500px">
Firstly, you should use the unit of length (ie, "px") for any non-zero value and secondly because we are being encouraged to use the style attribute whenever possible as, as I understand it, this will become the standard.

Need to fix the width of a column in interactive report

Hi,
I have a column named 'Comment'. Its have a huge data due to which the lenght of that column in interactive report get increased. I need to fix the length to a desired value.
I used following code in Region Footer:
<style>
table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td[headers=COMMENTS] {
_width: 300px;
min-width: 50px;
max-width: 300px }
</style>
Its solved the problem by fixing the width of the column but the column is not showing the full data now. It is hiding most of its part to fit it in that column.
Please give some idea.
Thanks,
Chandru

Hi,
I believe you will want to add a height specification to allow for multiple lines. And you may want/need to specifiy how you want lines to wrap.
Add (for example):
height: 60px;
white-space: nowrap;
word-wrap: break-word;
There are defaults and several options for white-space and word-wrap. You may want to look them up and give them a try for comparison.

I cannot sort my songs using the "plays" column (also known as the number of plays column). The number of "plays" is not increasing as a song finishes.

The "plays" column (also known as the number of plays column) is not saving not saving the number of plays (v 11.0).

My number of 'Plays' was not increasing anymore at some point after updating to Version 11. I had iTunes rev 11.0.1.12. Today I updated to the latest rev 11.0.2.26, and now the numer of plays is increasing, so they must have fixed the bug!

The cumulative balance displayed in FS10N does not match the sum of the det

Hello,
The cumulative balance displayed in FS10N does not match the sum of the details. For example, we have a GL disbursement account that has a ***. Balance of 8 million. The debit is 2 million and the credit is 10 million. But, when you drill down on the ***. Bal. for the current period, the sum of the details is 9 million. According to our users, the 2 balances should equal. I did a search in this forum and found 1 post stating they had the same issue and the answer was to run f.16. Has anyone experienced this and if so, how did you handle it? I'm not sure how f.16 functions. Do we have to run it for each consecutive year? I'm not a FI specialist. I'm responsible for data archiving and the users think it's related to archiving. However, we have a test system that was resynced with production prior to when archiving was done and it shows that this issue is pre-existing.
Thank you very much in advance,
Lourdes

Hello,
There is a possibility that you have activate line item display for some of the accounts at a later stage. Meaning that earlier postings were not be shown for the earlier postings but only totals will be made available. Therefore, obviously there is bound to be difference between line item report and totals report.
You need to identify which accounts are being changed with line item display at a later stage.
In case if you forget to keep GL Line item display for an account, but the posting are already made the following steps you would required to get the line item display retrospectively.
1. Note that you are NOT required to make the balance of that GL account to ZERO. Please do not confuse with Open Item Management.
2. Put the check box line item display for the account in FS00. Make sure you are entering right company code.
3. Block the account for posting in COA Segment and Company Code Segment in FS00
4. Go to SA38 and run program RFSEPA01 (Give correct GL Account and Company Code)
5. Now, remove the block you kept on the GL Account in FS00.
This will reset the line item display retrospectively.
Hope this will solve your problem.

Ravi

===Answer===
Comment on usual method and solution, by a forum Moderator.
As long as there are no confounding factors, such as certain extensions, or a user.jsfile the procedure is as follows
# Open a new tab and type "about:config" in the address bar.
# In the Search bar type: "newtab"
# Locate and double click "browser.newtab.url"
# In the "Enter String Value" box change "'''about:newtab'''" to "'''about:blank'''" and click OK.
# Verify that the value has changed and now all new tabs will be blank.

Have to say that I rather agree with Mark..all we want is a simple, unadorned clean page that doe not track and show usage!! WHY NOT!! Is it too simple for developers..we aren't all (nor do we want to be!) software experts! Come on Mozilla..tidy up and clean up..it might be a quicker programme too!!
