Hi,

i already tried to look around the web but i didn't found anything,
so I'm here asking for your help.

My question is: Is it possible to save a report directly in a table instead of the typically destination? (file, cache,...)

Thx in advance for your help Smile

Ator.

No, as far as I can tell.

Why would you want to do that, anyway? Data is already stored in tables, you just use Reports to fetch these data and display them in a pretty manner.

You could, though, take all report's SELECT statements, "convert" them into "INSERT INTO ... SELECT ..." ones and run that script. However, it could be tricky if you used formula columns, functions, etc.

I need it because our program makes a lot of journal and someone is looong. So instead to generate the pdf in a specific location on AS, i thougth it would be better if there was a way to save it directly on db. I will find a way around then.
thx Smile

Why not saving PDFs in file system? I suppose that it is easier to access them that way, than storing them into the database. Backup them using your operating system's backup utility, instead of Oracle's one (RMAN?).
