***URGENT**** DESIGNER 6i and Report

I am trying to generate reports out of Designer 6i. I have two problems that I cannot resolve.
1. How do I get the current user to print on the report?
2 How do you create a title page, header and footer for the report through Designer? If not in Designer, how do I create a template? I have invoke Report Builder and cannot seem to add a header or footer section if the file opened is a template.

See my update on your earlier question.
As for running 6i and 10g on the same machine, yes you can do it. You just have to install them in separate Oracle Homes, and be careful when you tell them which version of EXP and IMP to use. There is one MAJOR caveat, however. They cannot use the same Designer Repository - 6i client won't talk to a 10g repository and 10g client won't talk to a 6i repository. You can upgrade a 6i repository to 10g with the RAU, but take a backup before you do - the only way to go back is to restore your backup. Besides, I think that if you upgrade to the last supported version of Designer 6i (you should be able to get it from MetaLink) you will get the Publish Diagrams utility.
Frankly, my opinion is that there is only one reason to stay on 6i - if you need to generate and support 6i client/server Oracle Forms. If you don't use Oracle Forms, or if you have moved on to Web Forms with the middle tier Forms Server, I'd recommend an upgrade to Designer 10g and Developer 10g.

  • How to design insertion and report for customers

    I develop a web application in which I provide a web interface for inserting a customer. I model this customer as a class and provide its attributes. I have functions like addCustomer that inserts a customer's details in DB and getDetails() that returns a customer's attributes as an array. I have designed this for dealing with a single customer.
    Now I want to list all customers from DB. I think another class should be created with a listing function that has multiple references(multiplicity) for the customer class. It is a easy task to retrieve all customer using a query and display it. But I don't know how to model this. I don't want to create one object for all available customers and display the details of each customer. Then How to model this and how to implement this using classes.
    Can U tell me a resource or article that handles similar task.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Create a POJO called customer ( plain java object which represent the persistant data ) and a Customer manager which is reponsible for retrieving a list of customer.
    So the Customer manager will deal with retrieving the customer list.

  • "Unable to find report specified by URL,Please verify that both Server URL and Report URL are correct". Performance Point Dashboard Designer (SP 2013), SSRS 2012 Report.

    Hello Everybody,
    I am using Sharepoint server 2013 , SQL Server 2012 SP1, PerfomancePoint and Reporting Services in SharePoint integrated mode.
    I built one report in SSDTusing an Analysis Services Cube. This report has 3 parameters. So the idea is use Dashboard Designer to use this SSRS Report and connect it with some PP Filters.
    The issue is that I am always obtaining "Unable to find report specified by URL,Please verify that both Server URL and Report URL are correct".
    I have the following settings in the PP Report:
    Server Mode: SharePoint Integrated
    SharePoint Site: http://MySharrepointSite:PortNumber/sites/bicenter
    Document library : Documents (selected from drop down, my report is deployed to document library)
    Report : report.rdl
    When I select the report from drop down list its giving the error in a pop up message box as "Unable
    to find report specified by URL,Please verify that both Server URL and Report URL are correct".
    I have tried to use the most simple report, only with one parameter, but is always displaying the error above.
    When I open the report directly from documents library its working fine and even it is working fine (
    when I deployed the report) but the issue is parameters are not showing.
    Any idea? Please help.
    Thanks in Advance.

    "Unable to connect to the server at CALYSTO\ReportService.
    Hello Tom,
    It should be "ReportServer" in the URL, not "ReportService".
    In "Reporting Service Configuration Manager" look up the correct URL. Open Internet Explorer with right-mouse click => "Run as Administrator" and open the URL, this should work. Navigate to "Side setting" (on top right side),
    go to tab "Security" and add your account with role "System Administrator". Afterwards you should be able to open the URL without running IE as admin.

  • Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control and Visual FoxPro

    Hello everyone, I have a problem adding CRXI Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control in the run-time. When the following line is being executed, an "Insert Object" dialog pops up. ThisForm.AddObject( "oleDesigner", "olecontrol", "CrystalReports.EmbeddableCrystalReportsDesignerCtrl" ) The control, however, is available in the list, and when selected is added to the form. The above problem does not exist when I add ActiveX ReportViewer. Can anyone help me with this issue? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Paul

    Good morning,
    I am using  "Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control"  Crystal Report 11 with Visual Basic 6.0.
    There is some way for disable the tab "preview the main report"? THis is including in "Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control"
    or
    There is some way for update the tab "preview the main report" loaded after other report? Because, the preview is not refresh.
    Thanks
    Buenos días,
    Les comento, estoy utilizando el control "Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control" (CRDesignerCtrl11_5) del Crystal Report 11 en un proyecto de Visual Basic 6.0
    Cuando cargo un reporte dos veces, se presenta la "vista previa de informe principal".  Sin embargo cuando vuelvo a cargar otro reporte no se actualiza la "vista previa de informe principal" sino que se queda con la información cargada anteriormente.
    Quisiera saber si existe una forma de acceder al control para actualizar la "vista previa de informe principal", ya que a pesar de dar clic derecho y elegir actualizar no toma los datos del nuevo reporte cargado.
    Y si es posible en todo caso desabilitar la "vista previa de informe principal" o hacerlo invisible para que únicamente se presente la pestaña de "Informe Principal".
    De antemano agradezco su ayuda.

  • Rectangle box in designer lovs and in deski report where there is apostroph

    HI ,
    I have came across two issues with same scenario.
    Customer is using Sybase Adaptive server 12.5 when he is seeing rectangle box in designer lovs and in deski report where there is apostrophie.
    The apostrophie is of different kind, the normal one in our keyboard shows correctly.
    In bo 6.5 it was showing correctly, I found that when I use odbc connection it works fine but when I use Adaptive server client for creating a connection it shows junk character for those LOV's.
    I have compared the sbo and prm files of odbc and sybase and also of 6.5 and XIR2 but not found any peculiar difference relating to it.
    Can somebody help in this.
    For eg.
    CHILDRENu2019S = this shows junk character
    and
    CHILDREN'S = this works fine

  • Difference Between Web application design and Report Designer

    Hi,
    I have searched in the forum as well i Google it but still i am not clear the difference between Web application Designer and report Designer , why especially we go for WAD ? and  what is not possible in Report designer which we can do in WAD  Please some one explain me that would be great helpful to me. i am having lot of confusion in this issue.
    thanks,
    Gal

    Hi,
    The Report designer is completely for formating of your query and results. Here you have the flexibility to design your query(one/more) results in your own way.
    The WAD is for displaying various web items at one short for a single/multiple query. And here you have the flexibility to do the XML coding on the web items, but not as much you have the flexibility on Report Designer.
    But, Report designer will have more performance issues than WAD. So, generally it helps when you need extreme formating of your reports.
    Hope this clears your doubt.
    Regards,
    Srinivas.

  • Conflict between Forms server and Report server (Urgent)

    Hell to every body,
    I want to install oracle Forms6i and reports on my client.when i install Forms6i and after i run my forms on web they work well.but when i install reports server it install but when i run it on web it genrates error (the requested url was not found or cannot be served at this time. oracle report server CGI, Unable to communication with the report server.)
    with this message my forms server also stop to work.I have tryed to install it with same port and with different port but i receive the same message.Plz tell me what me have to do.I am wating for Ur reply.
    i have another question is that how i can install only the report server on client.

    You are probably overwriting your web listener definition when you install reports after forms.
    If you are using the webdb listener, then check out the *.cfg files in the listener\cfg directory. there you have the directory mappings and the CGI mappings keep a copy of this file before you install reports and then just add the missing lines to the file after you install reports.
    To know which lines to add check out the last message that you get when you install (the one with the [info] and [action] lines)

  • Designing a deski report

    Hi All,
    Need help in designing a deski report
    I have two variables;month and year.these two are database objects. month has values(1,2,3....12).And year has value 2007.
    Now i want to change this to a single variable which will give the value as jan,2007.
    Is it possible. Please help need this report very urgently.

    JK,
    If you want to solve the problem in the report itself you need to create a variable with the following formula (assuming that there is only one value for year and the type of year is a number)
    =If <month>=1 Then "jan,"+FormatNumber(<year>,"0") Else If <month>=2 Then "feb,"+FormatNumber(<year>,"0") Else If ......
    Note: the variable is a character and will be sorted as character so apr will come before jan. You can solve that using custom sorting.
    Cheers,
    Harry

  • Migration of forms and reports developed using Headstart  VERSION 3.4.1

    Hi,
    We have developed an application in forms 4.5 reports 2.0 based on repository 1.3.2 and Headstart
    Designer/2000 Template Package VERSION 3.4.1
    Now we want to migrate to Oracle 9i(web enabled)
    1)Is it possible to migrate only the forms and reports in 4,5 to 9i without the designer repository?Can the repository be left out?
    2)What about the templates and packages on the 2000 Headstart version.Is it necessary to migrate the same to 9i also?
    2)In case the repository has also to be migrated how do i go about migration to 9i??
    4)In case the headstart template/packages to be migrated how do i migrate to 9i?
    5)Where is the documentation available for headstart?
    Kindly help..

    Hi 23768 ( ;-) ),
    There is a whole wealth on information regarding upgrade/migration of headstart generated application systems.
    What you need is a licence on iDevelopment Accellerators and the Supplement Option (cso.oracle.com) to download this material.
    Contact your Oracle Consulting representative if you would like to know how to do this.

  • Getting error while creating form and report on webservice: ORA-20001: Unable to create form on table. ORA-02263: need to specify the datatype for this column.

    Please someone help to solve this as i need to fix it urgently.

    i exported the application from apex.oracle.com and imported it to our environment
    import went fine, but when I ran the IR page I got
    ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00904: : invalid identifier
    evidently the problem is a lack of public execute on DBMS_LOB, which is used in the generated IR source.
    while waiting for the DBA to grant privs on DBMS_LOB, changing the dbms_lob.getlength call to length() fixes the IR.
    however, i am not getting the download link on the associated form page... changed templates, that's not the issue -- we'll see if that's a dbms_lob issue as well
