FORMSIZE (RWCON60) 479 RWMTS60 480 x Report Builder Reference DISTRIBUTE (RWRUN60) Description DISTRIBUTE enables or disables distributing the report output to multiple destinations, as specified by the distribution list defined in the report distribution definition or a DST file Syntax [DISTRIBUTE=]{YES|NO} Values YES means to distribute the report to the distribution list NO means to ignore the distribution list and output the report as specified by the DESNAME and DESFORMAT parameters This is fundamentally a debug mode to allow running a report set up for distribution without actually executing the distribution Default NO Usage Notes n To enable the DESTINATION keyword, you must specify DISTRIBUTE=YES 530 Report Builder Reference DELIMITER (RWRUN60) Description DELIMITER specifies the character(s) to use to separate the cells in your report output Syntax [DELIMITER=]value Values Any alphanumeric character or string of alphanumeric characters, such as: , means a comma separates each cell means a period separates each cell You can also use any of these four reserved values: tab means a tab separates each cell space means a space separates each cell return means a new line separates each cell none means no delimiter is used You can also use escape sequences based on the ASCII character set, such as: \t means a tab separates each cell \n means a new line separates each cell Default Tab Usage Notes This argument can only be used if you’ve specified DESFORMAT=DELIMITED Report Builder Reference 531 CELLWRAPPER (RWRUN60) Description CELLWRAPPER specifies the character(s) that displays around the delimited cells in your report output Syntax [CELLWRAPPER=]value Values Any alphanumeric character or string of alphanumeric characters “ means a double quotation mark displays on each side of the cell ‘ means a single quotation mark displays on each side of the cell You can also use any of these four reserved values: tab means a tab displays on each side of the cell space means a single space displays on each side of the cell return means a new line displays on each side of the cell none means no cell wrapper is used You can also use escape sequences based on the ASCII character set, such as: \t means a tab displays on each side of the cell \n means a new line displays on each side of the cell Default None Usage Notes n This argument can only be used if you’ve specified DESFORMAT=DELIMITED n The cell wrapper is different from the actual delimiter 532 Report Builder Reference DATEFORMATMASK (RWRUN60) Description DATEFORMATMASK specifies how date values display in your delimited report output Syntax [DATEFORMATMASK=]mask Values Any valid date format mask Usage Notes n This argument can only be used if you’ve specified DESFORMAT=DELIMITED Report Builder Reference 533 NUMBERFORMATMASK (RWRUN60) Description NUMBERFORMATMASK specifies how number values display in your delimited report output Syntax [NUMBERFORMATMASK=]mask Values Any valid number format mask Usage Notes n This argument can only be used if you’ve specified DESFORMAT=DELIMITED 534 Report Builder Reference PAGESTREAM (RWRUN60) Description PAGESTREAM enables or disables page streaming for the report when formatted as HTML or HTMLCSS output, using the navigation controls set by the report developer using either of the following: n the Page Navigation Control Type and Page Navigation Control Value properties in the Report Property Palette n PL/SQL in a Before Report trigger (SRW.SET_PAGE_NAVIGATION_HTML) Syntax [PAGESTREAM=]{YES|NO} Values YES means to stream the pages NO means to output the report without page streaming Default NO Report Builder Reference 535 EXPRESS_SERVER (RWRUN60) EXPRESS_SERVER specifies the Express Server to which you want to connect Syntax EXPRESS_SERVER="server=[server]/domain=[domain]/ user=[userid]/password=[passwd]" Values A valid connect string enclosed in double quotes (") where server is the Express server string (e.g., ncacn_ip_tcp:olap2pc/sl=x/st=x/ct=x/sv=x /) Domain User is the Express Server domain is the userid to log into the Express Server Password is the password for the userid The server value contains four parameters that correspond to settings that are made in the Oracle Express Connection Editor and stored in connection (.xcf) files All four parameters are required and can be specified in any order The following table describes the parameters and their settings Parameter Description Setting sl Server Login -2: Host (Domain Login) -1: Host (Server Login) 0: No authentication required 1: Host (Domain Login) and Connect security 2: Host (Domain Login) and Call security 3: Host (Domain Login) and Packet security 4: Host (Domain Login) and Integrity security 5: Host (Domain Login) and Privacy security Notes: Windows NT uses all the settings Unix systems use only the settings 0, -1, and -2 See the Express Connection Editor Help system for information on these settings st Server Type 1: Express Server ct Connection 0: Express connection Type sv Server Version 1: Express 6.2 or greater Usage Notes n You can have spaces in the string if necessary (e.g., if the userid is John Smith) because the entire string is inside of quotes n If a forward slash (/) is required in the string, you must use another forward slash as an escape character For example, if the domain were tools/reports, the command line should be as follows: EXPRESS_SERVER="server=ncacn_ip_tcp:olap2-pc/sl=0/st=1/ ct=0/sv=1/ domain=tools//reports" n You can use single quotes within the string It is not treated specially because it is enclosed 536 Report Builder Reference within double quotes EXPRESS_SERVER with userid, password, and domain (RWRUN60) example rwrun60 userid=scott/tiger@nt805 express_server="server=ncacn_ip_tcp:olap2-pc/sl=1/st=1/ct=0/ sv=1/ user=orbuild/domain=tools/password=buildme/" report=exp.rdf destype=file desname=exp1.html desformat=html batch=yes EXPRESS_SERVER without userid, password, and domain (RWRUN60) example rwrun60 userid=scott/tiger@nt805 express_server="server=ncacn_ip_tcp:olap2-pc/sl=0/st=1/ct=0/ sv=1/" report=exp.rdf destype=file desname=exp1.html desformat=html batch=yes Report Builder Reference 537 (RWRUN60) Description is a parameter that is part of the report’s definition The value you specify is used for that parameter’s value Syntax =value Values Any valid value for that parameter Default Taken from the Initial Value property of the parameter Usage Notes n You can override the default value on the Runtime Parameter Form n Values of arguments may be in single or double quotes The effect of single or double quotes is operating-system specific n If you specify runfile(s) using the REPORT keyword, the PARAM values will be validated using the settings specified for each parameter (e.g., Input Mask, Validation Trigger) in the report(s) n If you not specify runfile(s) using the REPORT keyword, the PARAM value is not parsed, or validated, because the parameters may refer to those that have not yet been defined 538 Report Builder Reference Index Add property 274 Additional Hyperlink Attributes property 228
