Hi
Can you pls send me the solution for the following requirement.
Currently we are using Oracle Application Server9i on HP-UX11.0 using Developer6i as front end/browser.
1. I woulsd like to create/generate a report in PDF format and store it in a particular directory. This i have tried using HOST. But i am unable to create.
2. Once i create the PDF report, i would like to open from the browser(IE or Netscape). How can i do that.
It is very urgent. I will be looking ahead for your response.
Regds,
Scott

yaa u can use runproduct builtins with detype parameter. it will create file in any physical directory on web server then u can use web.show_documet built_in to display the document on browser.
ur when button pressed trigger like this
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'File');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'desname',TEXT_PARAMETER,'C:report.pdf');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'desformat',TEXT_PARAMETER,'pdf');
Run_Product(REPORTS,'file.rdf',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,PL_ID,NULL);
web.show_document(url/report.pdf,_blank);
