REP-0999 Unimplemented Error

430018Jan 3 2005 — edited Jul 15 2009
I was pointed to this forum for a possible solution to my problem. I have an Oracle Forms v. 6.x.x.x.x application that calls an Oracle Reports v. 6.x.x.x.x report and passes a lexical parameter to the report. When the user attempts to send the report output to an RTF via the Report Previewer, they get this REP-0999 error.

They can send the output to a MS Doc, but the output is not in a very friendly format ... i.e. the output doc is formatted like a MS Doc table and it requires considerable manual editing to be put into a useable format.

I had hoped that the RTF option would be a work around, but users with newer machines get the REP-0999 error and users with some older machines are usually able to perform the task.

My questions are:

1. Will upgrading our version of Oracle (8), forms and reports v6, help with this issue?

2. Can anyone suggest a way for me to give users a convenient way to output report output into an editable format using Word, Textpad, Notepad, etc?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If this is not the right place to ask (i.e. not the right form) please tell. Thank you

If the application has not changed, the server or servers might have changed. You are sending data to a different server which might hav ebeen updated (or a security patch has been installed) which influences the used protocol. As you are using a very old version of JDev and OC4J every change n the operating system can brake something.

The problem is that there aren't  too many people around here using this old software or even know the version.

As you didn't disclose how you send the data it's hard to help or tell if this is the right forum.
