Saving a report to a file on a client PC?
I would be grateful for a quick sanity check!
When calling Oracle 开发者_开发百科Reports 10g from Oracle Forms 10g, is it possible to run an Oracle Report and save it on the users PC to a specified directory? (I know that if an Oracle Report is run in such a format as PDF the user can save the report to x location). To call the Oracle report I am using the Oracle Forms built-in "Run_Report_Object".
I don't think it is (but would be happy to revise my opinion!) and to obtain such functionality I would have to implement something similar to what is discussed in this thread
I have amended my question to include the fact that I am using the Oracle Forms built-in "Run Report Object" to call Oracle Reports.
There is a Oracle Report parameter: DESTYPE which can accept a value called LOCALFILE which saves the output to the client machine using the file name specified by DESNAME, however as I'm using "Run_Report_Object" it is not possible to use the value LOCALFILE.
One solution is to follow the steps given here.
