How to call a report from Forms?..

Answer / arjun

in Forms 10g now there is RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(report_id,
parameter_list) is to use for run report
Use this Built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT to run a report from
within a form. You can run the report against either a
local or remote database server.
Before 10g we were using Built-in procedure RUN_PRODUCT.

Answer / fatima hussain

DECLARE
PL_ID PARAMLIST;
PL_NAME VARCHAR2(100) := 'PL_ACCCODE';
BEGIN

PL_ID := GET_PARAMETER_LIST(PL_NAME);
IF NOT ID_NULL(PL_ID) THEN
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(PL_ID);
END IF;

PL_ID := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST(PL_NAME);

(Add more parameter according to your need and also use the
additional line of code according to to your need)

ADD_PARAMETER(PL_ID, 'P_DATE1',
TEXT_PARAMETER, :CON_BLK.DATE1);
ADD_PARAMETER(PL_ID, 'P_DATE2',
TEXT_PARAMETER, :CON_BLK.DATE2);

ADD_PARAMETER(PL_ID, 'PARAMFORM', TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO');
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS, 'Report_Name.rdf',
SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM, PL_ID);

END;

Answer / muzammil sabir

The report can be run from the forms in simple steps... i will show you how to run report from forms by passing a parameter to the report :
1.Create a report with the desired fields which you want to show..now go to the reports and create a user parameter named p_serial_no.
2. Then create a print button on your form and then write this code in the WHEN-BUTTON-TRIGGER of the button. I have added comments to explain the code
/*
** Declare a variable of type ParamList to store
** the Parameter list ID
*/
DECLARE
temp_id paramlist;
BEGIN
commit;
/*
** Create a Parameter list named "V_A"
*/
temp_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('V_A');
/*
** Add two Parameters to the list to pass values for each
** user-defined Parameters defined in the target form; for each
** Parameter, specify its key, type (text or data), and value
*/
ADD_PARAMETER(temp_id,'p_serial_no',text_parameter,to_number(:e_fee.fee_id,'999999999999'));
/*
** Pass a Parameter into PARAMFORM so that a parameter dialog
will not appear
** for the parameters being passing in.
*/
ADD_PARAMETER(temp_id,'paramform',text_parameter,'NO');
add_parameter(temp_id,'MAXIMIZE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'YES');
add_parameter(temp_id,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER,'PRINTER');
/*
** Run the report synchronously, passing the parameter list
*/
run_product(reports,'F:\Education\feevchr2.rdf',synchronous,runtime,filesystem,temp_id);
destroy_parameter_list(temp_id);
end;
2.A..... Replace the name of the primary key field which you have in your form or any other field in the above code where :e_fee.fee_id is written
2.B..... replace the path of the report file which you created earlier in the above code where 'F:\Education\feevchr2.rdf' is written.

................That's it when you will click the print button on form, it will invoke the report which you have created and it will be according to the field of wich you have passed the parameter..................................
