Hi, I would really appreciate help on this. I have a script (s1.py) which I would like to call from another script (s2.py). No problem there. The first issue is that s1.py has a command line parser which I would like to keep but instead of fetching the information from the command line, I...

Thanks BJCooper, I will try your advice and let you know. What do you mean by anchoring the line to the text field. In fact I have two cases, both of which do not work. The first is the one outline in the first post:two fields, one for 'Amount', the other for '-----' both of which are right...

Hi, To make a long story short. I am working on a report that requires a PDF output. Now I want to left align a column say Amount so that: Amount --------- 100$ So naturally I have a field for text 'Amount' a field for text '- -...

Thanks Nargoni, You were right about the spasce and and the first page property. One thing that I needed to add is replace variable with expand in the property palette of my (only) field. You know, the more I work with report builder, the more I noticed that it is a terrible program...

I am working on a very simple report. The layout consists of a frame, a repeating frame inside the frame and a field inside the repeating frame. The fiels comes from a column formula I programmed. I have two issues. 1. I want to remove the empty space where the header normally goes. 2. The...

Does anyone have any idea where I am supposed to find a java bean container in a form open with forms builder? This is a really urgent issue here for us so I would apreciate ANY input and will explain more later..

I just figures it out..Exactly like word. Group and then strecth.. Thanks

Hi, Well what you said is exactly right. You can shrink the font from report builder and that will work. And you can also increase the page size and allow for enough space and that will work too and is also the more elegant approach. A quick question, is there a way to increase all of the...

Thanks nagornyi for another valuable post. I wil try this this after the holidays :).

Hi nagornyi, Thanks again for your reply! I guess I wasnt specific enough. We run all our reports from oracle applications (web based), and the *** are displayed in the actual file (pdf generated in oracle application) not the printed output. So, from my limited understanding of these things...

Hi all, We have a report that is currently ouptuted in text and I was asked to additionally provide a pdf output. The problem is that in the pdf output the font is automatically chosen as one or two points larger and hence there is not enough space for the data to be displayed within the...

In Layout, choose a displayed field, double-click or press F4 takes you to the Property Palette. There, under Column, there is a field or paramater called width. I actually fixed the original problem with a sort off patheric workaround. I created a formula column in DATA MODEL. The formula is...

The MODE is actually set to the Default in the Property Palette. The thing is this report is ran from Oracle Application. It is defined there as a concurrent program with an output to text (one has to chose one and only one type of output when defining the report in Oracle Application). So...

After some reseatching the issue, I noted that there are two parameter involved (system parameters) :DESFORMAT and :MODE I tried setting :DESFORMAT in afterformtrigger to either 'PDF'or'TXT' but it complains for 'PDF' saying: "Character mode runtime incompatible with DESFORMAT PDF" at which...

Just a general question, Is it possible to have a report setup in such a way that the users chooses whether the output will be in pdf or text. The way we have it right now is we have multiple copies of report such as: Report1--pdf Report1--txt and depending on the wish of the user he runs...

Ok. I did what you asked and thanks! I have it seems pinpointed the problem. Because the query ran fine in toad, I started looking at the layout of the report and there I see that the width field is blank and I believe this to be the root of the entire problem (i.e. of not having anything...

Hi again nagornyi, Thanks for bearing with me. I have been playing around with the code. Remember how I wanted lex_var := 'Statement I want' and to have Select &lex_var my_alias.... well lex_var has two possibilities: 1. A function, say lex_var= my_package.my_function() 2. A field, say...

Ok...I have a new problem now. The SQL query is accepted thanks to your help. Just a reminder. I am doing SELECT ... . ... &lex_var my_alias ... ... FROM ... GROUBY my_alias; Also, my_alias is likend to a column for display in the report. Now, essentially the new problem is that...

THANKS!!! I tried everything and have been trying for over 6 hours. It is exactly what you have said.
