RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (merged 2) [message #519021]

Hello there,

I'm using the following piece of code to run reports from Oracle Forms 11g.

DECLARE
  repid REPORT_OBJECT;
  v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
	 
BEGIN
  repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REP_TEST_R');
  v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);           
END;

On execution, the screen does not respond. Is there anything I'm doing wrong here? Do I need to use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT along with RUN_REPORT_OBJECT? If yes, then why?

Thanking you in anticipation,

Using the Oracle FormsWeb.Show_Document() Built-in to call Oracle Reports on the Web is an alternative to the Run_Report_Object() Built-in.

For more detail pls read this documentation.

Dear,

Using the Forms RUN_REPORT_OBJECT() Built-in to call Oracle Reports that contain a parameter form requires code changes in Forms to run on theWeb.
The reason for Reports parameter forms not working, when called from Forms using the RUN_ REPORT_OBJECT Built-in, is an empty action attribute in the generated Reports HTML parameter form. Because RUN_REPORT_OBJECT() calls Reports directly on the server, Reports cannot access theWeb environment
to obtain the information required to populate the action attribute when generating the HTML parameter form.

Regards,
Irfan
