Changes Since Previous Version Changes since the version dated 2003/11/01: o Update subscribe/unsubscribe instructions for new version of list server software. o New URL for "brio-l" mailing list. 2. Introduction 2.1. sqr-users Mailing List The sqr-users mailing list was created to enable discussion related to the SQR database language from Hyperion (and to other products in the SQR product suite). Note: SQR used to be published by SQRIBE Technologies, which was merged into Brio Technology on August 3, 1999. Brio Technology changed its name to Brio Software in October 2001. On October 16, 2003, Hyperion acquired Brio Software. SQR and related applications have also been called "Brio.Report" and "Brio Reports". The mailing list is provided as a service of Ray Ontko & Co. A searchable archive of past postings to the mailing list is available from the SQR Users Group web site . 2.2. sqr-users Hints and Guidelines Document This document gives various hints and guidelines about the sqr-users mailing list. It will be posted approximately monthly to the mailing list so that new users can see it (and existing users can find it easily). An HTML version of the document is always available at http://www.sqrug.org/sqr-users/sqr-users-hints.html. If you have comments or suggestions about this document, please contact me directly at the address listed in the title section. This document is Copyright (C) 1999-2004 by Ray Ontko & Co.

To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "briolist- subscribe@yahoogroups.com". 3. Interacting with the list server The sqr-users mailing list is hosted using the Mailman list server package. All of the Mailman functions described below are accessed from the sqr-users List Info page, "http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users". 3.1. Subscribing to the list To subscribe to the mailing list, enter your e-mail address in the box at the top of the "Subscribing to sqr-users" section on the sqr-users List Info page, then choose a password to assign to your subscription and enter it in both "Password" boxes. This password is used to allow you to securely make changes to your subscription over the web. This password will be e-mailed back to you at varous times, so you should not use the same password as you are using elsewhere. Once you have filled in the password, click the "Subscribe" button. You should soon receive an e-mail message from the list server requesting confirmation of your subscription request. Once you have replied to this message and your subscription has been processed, you will receive a "welcome" message giving you more information on the list server, and as well as a reminder of the subscription password you chose. 3.2. Unsubscribing from the list To unsubscribe from the list, go to the sqr-users List Info page, enter your e-mail address in the "sqr-users Subscribers" section near the bottom of the page, and click the "Unsubscribe or edit options" button. You will then see the "member options" page; fill in your password at the top of the page and click "Log in". (If you have forgotton your password, see the ``Obtaining your Password'' section, below). This will take you to the "membership configuration" page. In the middle of that page, there will be an "Unsubscribing from sqr- users" section; simply turn on the "Yes, I really want to unsubscribe" checkbox and click the "Unsubscribe" button. You should get a page back saying that the removal was successful (as well as a confirmation email message). The removal will take effect immediately; there is no need to send in a confirmation e-mail message. If you don't know your password, you can choose to unsubscribe using e-mail confirmation. Instead of entering the password on the "member options" page, just click the "Unsubscribe" button found just below the "Log In" button. You will then see a page noting that a confirmation e-mail has been sent; once you follow the confirmation instructions in that e-mail your removal will be complete. 3.3. When your email address changes If your e-mail address changes -- for example, if your company changes names, or if your mail administrator changes the way your name is spelled out or abbreviated -- you will need to update your subscription to match your new address before you can post to the list (see the ``Posting'' section, below). To do this, simply log in to your "membership configuration" page (see the directions for logging in to this page in the ``Unsubscribing'' section, above). At the top of that page you'll see a "Changing your membership information" section. Fill out the text boxes and click the "Change My Address and Name" button. You will be sent a confirmation e-mail, and once you have responded to that e-mail your subscription will be updated and you can begin posting from your new address. 3.4. Digests You can request to get your messages in digest form (one large message containing all of the posts made each day). To do this, log in to your "membership configuration" page (see the directions on doing this in the ``Unsubscribing'' section, above). At the bottom of the page, you will see a section titled "Your sqr-users Subscription Options". Change the "Set Digest Mode" option (the second option in the list) to "On" and click the "Submit My Changes" button at the bottom of the page. You actually have a choice of two different digest formats, "MIME" or "Plain Text". The MIME format sends each individual list message as a separate MIME attachment to the digest; the plain text format consists of one large text message, with all of the individual messages run together. Which format you will want to use depends on your mail- reading software (and personal preference). If you are not sure which format will work best, you can just leave the default setting of "MIME" and see if the next morning's digest is easy to read in your mail reader -- you can change to the other format at any time using that same web page. If you use digests, you should not just "reply" to the digest mailing. Instead, be sure your message's subject header matches the subject in the original posting to which you are replying, and that you don't include a quoted copy of the entire digest in your post. To restore normal distribution, simply follow the above instructions choosing the "Off" setting for the Digest option. 3.5. Obtaining your password You will not be able to change your subscription options without your password. If you have forgotten your password, simply click the "Email My Password to Me" button on the "member options" page and your password will be emailed to you. You will also be e-mailed a copy of your password at the beginning of each month, as part of a "mailing list memberships reminder" message from the Mailman software. 3.6. Problems If the above instructions do not work, please contact the list manager at "sqr-users-manager@sqrug.org". (Do not send a message to the list itself -- no one there can help you with your problem!) Please include a description of what you were trying to do and what exactly happened when you made the attempt. 4. Posting to the sqr-users List In order to post to the mailing list, you must be subscribed to it (see directions above). More specifically, in order for Mailman to recognize that this message was sent by a subscriber, the return address on your message much exactly match the addresss you used to subscribe -- if you have more than one address you will need to be sure that you are sending from the correct one. (See the ``When you email address changes'' section, above, if your e-mail address has changed since you subscribed.) 4.1. General Guidelines For any message you send to the list, please: o make sure your mail software is not requesting a "Return Receipt". (If a "Return Receipt Requested" message is sent to the list, several dozen receipt messages will be sent out to the mailing list as other subscribers' mail systems repond....) o do not send messages in HTML or other special formats. (These are not usable by many subscribers, especially those who receive their messages in digest format.) The list server will delete these special attachments from your message and send you a warning notice. Also, if you are trying to send (for example) SQR source code files, make sure your mail-reader software is assigning proper MIME types to your attachments or they may not be distributed. o keep in mind that over 500 people will receive your message, and that it will appear in the list archives. Try to keep your messages on-topic and relatively short. Consider sending your message directly to particular people if it won't interest many of the list's subscribers. o ignore abusive and inappropriate messages that get sent to the list, rather than getting drawn into a debate. The very nature of these messages will cause most subscribers to automatically discredit them -- no "response" is necessary. To the contrary, any response will only "add fuel to the fire," prolonging the controversy and further interupting the normal conversation on the list. 4.2. Posting a Message Once you are subscribed, you can post to the list by sending a message to "sqr-users@sqrug.org". Be sure your subject heading describes your specific problem or question (i.e. don't just use "SQR Question"). In the body of your message, please include the following information: o SQR product name and version number (see notes below) o Operating system name and version number o Database name and version number o Application name (i.e. PeopleSoft) and a version number, if any Also, include a short code sample whenever possible. It's much easier for other people to understand what you are trying to do when they can see the actual code. (At the same time, be careful not to post confidential or proprietary code, since the posting will be placed in a public web archive.) Note that your question should relate to SQR or other Brio Report product in some way. Don't ask questions about PeopleSoft, for example, unless you are having SQR-related issues. (For PeopleSoft- specific questions, see other lists mentioned in the ``Related Mailing Lists'' section.) In 2001, PeopleSoft purchased from Brio the rights to the source code for SQR and began releasing its own line of SQR. PeopleSoft's SQR version numbering is different from Brio/Hyperion's, so it's very important to mention whether you are using Hyperion's "SQR" or "SQR for PeopleSoft". (This info is included automatically if you include the full SQR version-id string as described below.) To get the version-id string for your copy of SQR, you can run the following program: begin-program show $sqr-ver end-program This will produce a line that looks something like this: SQR/3.0.15/Intel/SCO Unix R3.2 V5.0/Oracle 7.2.2.3/Sep 25 1996 Include the full line of output in your message. Note that the oper- ating system and database version numbers listed here are the ones under which this copy of SQR was compiled, so you'll still need to include this information for your own environment. In a command-line environment (Unix, etc.), you can also get this version-id string by saying sqr -id 4.3. Replying to a Message Messages sent out on the list have a Reply-To header pointing to the list. This means that you should be able to simply use your mail reader's "reply" function to send a reply to the list. Generally, all answers to questions sent out on the list should be public replies, so that other subscribers can benefit. In those cases where a private reply is appropriate, be sure to over-ride the default Reply-To address. If your message is not actually a reply to the earlier message, please do not use the "reply" function. Instead, address a new e-mail message to the list as described in the previous section. (This is because the list archives will incorrectly show the new message in the original thread if you use "reply".) You should quote enough lines from the original message that later readers can understand your answer even if they missed the original question. At the same time, you should remove any unnecessary lines from the quote in order to make your message shorter and easier to understand. (Remember that some people read the mailing list in digest form, and the digests become much larger if unnecessary lines are quoted.) 5. Job Announcements Please do not post job announcements on the sqr-users list, but use the sqr-jobs list instead. (See ``Related Mailing Lists'' for more information on this list.) A large number of sqr-users subscribers do not want to receive job announcements (for various reasons) and such posts tend to cause a lot of disruption of the discussion on the list. _______________________________________________ sqr-users mailing list sqr-users@sqrug.org http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users From sqr-users-bounces+sqrusersarch=sqrug.org@sqrug.org Thu Jul 01 13:56:57 2004 From: "Mark Hall" Date: Thu, 01 Jul 2004 13:54:03 -0500 Subject: [sqr-users] (SQR 5543) Specify the Oracle DLL name in the SQR.INI One of my users ran into the following error running sqrw.

In some file systems I run into this limit when I am doing an export of an Oracle database. But certain file systems are, as I said, "large file enabled" and they except files sizes greater than 2G. Talk to your Unix system administrator. That is, if you are processing this file on a Unix box. It may just be that you need to use a different file system.

You might need to trim out the and tags. But, I'm guessing that your question has to do with rendering HTML in the context of -printer:pd, -printer:ht, or -printer:ps. If that's the case, then you'll want to _interpret_ the HTML and invoke the appropriate PRINT commands depending on the HTML content. We've developed such an HTML interpreter (that reads a string containing HTML and then executes the equivalent print commands) that also uses our proportional font library. We get pretty good results for a useful subset of HTML. We have a substantial investment in our proportional font and HTML rendering libary. We haven't quite decided on an approach for allowing others to use the library. Contact me at rayo@ontko.com if you'd like to persue this further.

Then you can use the new-report command to close the file and call SQRWP to convert the SPF to any format you want. This definitely works in Windows. Basically, Begin-Program !fred.sqr do some_stuff new-report 'dummy.lis' call system using 'sqrwp.exe fred.spf -printer:pd' #x call system using 'sqrwp.exe fred.spf -printer:hp' #x End-Program You can use this approach to generate any number of output types. Alternatively enclose the SQR in a script and call SQRWP in the script. Whichever will be more supportable in your business.

I have tried it and it works as shown, however, the subselect I am trying to do is a "sum" and it looks like SQR doesn't like that. i.e. begin-select A.DATE (select sum(amount) from TABLE_X where NAME = 'FRED') &ID By the way, the reason I'm trying to do this is so that I can ORDER BY A.DATE, &ID. I know I could call separate procedures to go and get this information, but then I am not able to sort the data unless I build some sort of temp table or views. I wanted to be able to just return everything I need in this one select and sort accordingly and then print. Any further thoughts?

Call this procedure from a begin-program procedure. If it's bonafide SQL, it should work in SQR. Sometimes it is simpler to do the work of a subquery in another paragraph that you call from within the original select: Begin-select A &a_var B &b_var C &c_var do the_other_procedure =46rom some_table Where something =3D somethingelse and etc....

If you open the csv file in notepad.exe, it should look exactly the same as it does in html. Excel just changes the formatting to what you are seeing now. In fact, if you click on any date cell and look in the formula bar, it will show up as you wanted. In order to change the view in Excel, select the date column, select formatting from right click menu and change the formatting to how you want it.

Once I made the following changes my results were more acceptable. However I still determined that SQR can not truly distinguish between a column containing an empty string and one containing a NULL value. Obviously I can get around this using the database function ISNULL instead of SQR's function so I shall not dwell on this.=20=20 However, can anyone explain why the below sections of code produce different output??? Originally my code which I thought was printing the appropriate ISNULL results was as follows: let $line3 =3D 'isnull(&ENTITY) expected: 01 actual: <' || edit(isnull(&ENTITY), '09') || '>' print $line3 (+1,1) Result "isnull(&ENTITY) expected: 01 actual: <00>" After receiving 'the dragons' email I suspect the edit function was not working as expected and changed it to: let #null =3D isnull(&ENTITY) let $line3 =3D 'isnull(&ENTITY) expected: 01 actual: <' || edit(#null, '09') || '>' print $line3 (+1,1) Result "isnull(&ENTITY) expected: 01 actual: <01>" Btw - We are using some tables that are not created in PeopleSoft and thus may contain NULL values.

Try the new-report command before you do the call system. Brio, or whomever they are called this week, has an excellent sqr reference manual you can order on CD, I think, and if you do a search on sqr at www.amazon.com or www.half.com, you can find reference books. peace, clark 'the dragon' willis PSA: Salary <> Slavery.

H= owever, you are on SQL Server, and I'm not sure if that allows nulls in cha= racter fields. I am not exactly sure what the definition of 'empty string' is, but in your= third example, you seem to be showing a null value. Perhaps when the mess= age was posted, a space somehow was stripped out, but when I put my cursor = in the string, there is no space between the quotes. That is a null value,= and would be treated as such by the isnull() function. If there was a spa= ce there, then I agree that isnull() should not be true, although isblank()= would. Denise M.

I have 2 specific questions for this group: Is there a way by which I can provide a menu option on the SPF Viewer itself, like "File-Save As Excel Report" or is there any other workaround (any kind of triggers) where I can provide some means by which I can allow the users to select a folder location on their local drives where they can save my Excel export? If this is feasible, then how do I interpret the return values? Saving the excel export to C:\Temp\filname.xls does not work, 'cos this file gets wriiten to the virtual local area of Citrix.If the above is not feasible, then is there any means by which I can pass the right parameters (knowing this would be the key) to force the excel export to a local temp folder on the user's PC, as opposed to the virtual local area within Citrix?I would greatly appreciate your input.

Evidently, Gina has informed me, in sql-server they have two different constructs - an empty string and a null. I may be wrong, but I do not think this construct of the empty string exists anywhere but sql-server. In Oracle the empty string '' (two ticks side by side) results in the value of null being inserted into the table.

If you are using Oracle, and retrieving Plant_Id as part of your select, it may be easier to use the DECODE expression in Oracle to create a variable when this condition is met.

When the command line interface was dropped from the Windows distribution the thought was not to mess with customer scripts. What does it matter what the name of the executable it away? Look at Microsoft Word ... why is it called WINWORD.EXE rather than just WORD.EXE? 3) The T is for "SQR Execute" or "SQR Runtime" depending on the company. Originally SQR could be packaged as a complete package or just the runtime component which allowed people to run reports (.SQT) but able to create them from the source (.SQR). Great for turnkey systems and configuration control. SQRWT.EXE is not an alias for "SQRW -RT" but rather a complete executable in itself. It accepts a subset of the command line flags that SQRW.EXE accepts.

If you are on version 8.x find the output file label "Message Log". This is the output from an intermediate program, PSSQR.EXE, but it will include the SQR command line that is generated. There are probably more parameters here than you need, but you can use this as your initial template. In general, for PeopleSoft Application that you run from your desktop you will need -i, -o, -f, and -zif and optionally you might want to use -cb and -ziv. I hope this helps.

When I last installed PeopleSoft, I ran SQRW.EXE for the first time and there were no flags. Somone told me some neat trick for populating them, and I've forgotten it. Can somebody please remind me of this cunning stunt (Spoonerism alert!) or tell me what flags I need if I'm doing it manually? 2. What does the W in SQRW.EXE stand for, anyway? 3. And how about the T in SQT? The most plausible candidate I can think of is "transaction" and that isn't very plausible at all. _________________________________________________________________ Don’t just search. Find.

Programmers often think since they have identified the LEVELS appropriately it should not matter what order the place the statements in the loop. This is not true.=20=20 begin-select ... TO_CHAR(SF_ITM_POST_DT, 'MM/DD/YY') &SF_ITM_POST_DT () on-break print=3Dnever level=3D1 after=3DDatetotal PSE_OPR_ID () on-break print=3Dnever level=3D2 after=3DIDtotal BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM () on-break print=3Dnever level=3D3 after=3Dsubtotal BURSAR_ITM_TYP_SHRT_DESC=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20 sum(BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT) &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT ... end-select Next, make sure your ORDER BY clause lists the level 1 break column first, level 2 second, etc. Note level 1 is the highest level break. In your case I would recommend using positional ordering since your highest level break is a function. ORDER BY 1, PSE_OPR_ID, BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM=09 I do not think you need to save the old values of your variables, instead use print=3Dchange/top-page to control the printing of the field values. If for some reason you do in fact need the old value of variable, use the save variables to hold the old value of the select field during the execution of your after procedures. SQR will maintain the old value of a select column in a save variable that can then be used in the after procedure. Once the after procedure executes, SQR sets the value of the save variable to the new column value so the $oldpid and &PSE_OPR_ID will have the same value after the AFTER procedure executes. Note the second level 3 break, I am assuming that BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM and BURSAR_ITM_TYP_SHRT_DESC break simultaneously. begin-select ... TO_CHAR(SF_ITM_POST_DT, 'MM/DD/YY') &SF_ITM_POST_DT (+1,...) on-break print=3Dnever level=3D1 after=3DDatetotal save=3D$olddt PSE_OPR_ID (0,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D2 after=3DIdtotal save=3D$oldpid BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM (0,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D3 after=3Dsubtotal save=3D$oldnm BURSAR_ITM_TYP_SHRT_DESC (0,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D3 save=3D$olddes=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20 sum(BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT) &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT ... end-select Your if statement is doing the work that should be left for your break statements and SAVE variables. I would recommend using three subtotal variables and three Counter variables. In your select paragraph include lines similar to those given below. Then in your after procedure, print the value of the appropriate variables and then move a 0 to reset them for the next grouping.=20=20 Begin-select ... add &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT to #Datesubtotal add &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT to #idsubtotal add &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT to #NMsubotal add 1 to #DateCounter add 1 to #IDCounter add 1 to #NMCounter ... End-select !----------------------------------------------------- BEGIN-PROCEDURE SUBTOTAL !----------------------------------------------------- print 'Total for Name: ' (+2,...) print #Nmsubotal (0,...) move 0 to #Nmsubotal move 0 to #NmCounter END-PROCEDURE SUBTOTAL After procedures call each other in descending order. For Example lets say your code breaks at the highest level (&SF_ITM_POST_DT), the after procedures will be called in the following order subTotal, IDTotal, DateTotal. Then SQR will clear the lower level breaks so that these procedures are not called again when there print statements are executed. Now your select paragraph ought to look like this: begin-select TO_CHAR(SF_ITM_POST_DT, 'MM/DD/YY') &SF_ITM_POST_DT (+1,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D1 after=3DDatetotal save=3D$olddt PSE_OPR_ID (0,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D2 after=3DIdtotal save=3D$oldpid BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM (0,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D3 after=3Dsubtotal save=3D$oldnm BURSAR_ITM_TYP_SHRT_DESC (0,...) on-break print=3Dchange/top-page level=3D3 save=3D$olddes=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20 sum(BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT) &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT add &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT to #Datesubtotal add &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT to #idsubtotal add &BURSAR_ITM_LN_AMT to #NMsubotal add 1 to #DateCounter add 1 to #IDCounter add 1 to #NMCounter end-select While processing the SELECT paragraph, when a break occurs on any column, events occur in the following order: 1. AFTER procedures are processed in descending order from highest LEVEL to the lowest LEVEL of the current ON-BREAK column.=20 2. SAVE variables are set with the new value. 3. BEFORE procedures are processed in ascending from lowest LEVEL to the highest LEVEL of the current ON-BREAK column. 4. Any breaks with the same of higher LEVEL numbers are cleared so they will not break on the next value 5. The current line position is advanced if SKIPLINES is used 6. The value is PRINTed, unless PRINT=3DNEVER To illustrate this, let's look at what happens when &SF_ITM_POST_DT breaks. 1. After procedures are processed (in descending order) subtotal (Level 3)=20 Idtotal (Level 2) Datetotal (Level 1)=20=20 During the processing of the after procedures the save variable, $olddt, has value of the previous column variable. 2. Save variables are given new values The value of &SF_ITM_POST_DT is moved to the save variable $olddt. 3. Before procedures are processed (in ascending order) None are defined 4. Clear higher level breaks The breaks on PSE_OPR_ID, BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM, and BURSAR_ITM_TYP_SHRT_DESC are cleared.=20=20 This ensures that the before and after procedures, Idtotal and subtotal will not be processed again when the print statement associated with PSE_OPR_ID and BURSAR_ITM_TYP_NM is executed. 5. n/a Skiplines was not used.=20=20 6. Print - or not Since print=3Dchange/top-page is used, the value of &SF_ITM_POST_DT is printed. Hope this Helps!

I've only just received the printer so I haven't gotten very far. In my case I am not using the Windows drivers, I will be printing directly to the printer at a network IP address, so I am starting from scratch and using the native code on the printer. By the way, the "^" character does not indicate an ALT value, you simply include the "^" as a character. Below are some of the codes used in ZPLII, the native code/script of the printer. You can download the manual from the Zebra website at http://www.zebra.com/SS/manuals.htm but they require you to register. I suspect that END_FORMAT is what you want but how to add that between records when using the print driver is unknown to me at this point. Perhaps I misunderstand how you are creating the batch file?

You might check on whether there is an option for a dictionary sort, and if so, how it works. A dictionary sort might just be case-insensitive, or it might be accent-mark insensitive. If there isn't a sort option that helps, you might create another field on the table (or use a view) that has only unaccented letters. Or you could read the (almost) sorted data into an array, translate the name to another field, removing the accents, and go through the array doing a "touch-up" sort that shouldn't take very long. -----Original Message----- From: Miller, Danika [mailto:MillerD2@ndu.edu] Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 1:37 PM To: 'This list is for discussion about the SQR database reporting languagef rom Hyperion Solutions.'

Ok, let me explain this.. We are supposed to print the Timecards for employees.All the data is printed Left to Right ( Just as we would expect it to print). Besides the data being printed Left to Right, we are also supposed to print the Employee ID. The employee Id is to be printed in the Left Margin of the page, from Bottom to Top. For example the number is 1300 , it would print like --------> (left to right) when printed horizontally. I want to print this like ^ | | | such that 1 appears on the bottom, with 3 on top, with 0 and the other 0 on the top. Basically, the text has to be rotated by 90 degrees. This is required to print the Employee Code in a bigger font . The cards are stacked Vertically, and hence this number would appear horizontal (in a bigger, readable font) to any one looking for his card. Because the mail group does not allow attachments, I can't send any to you. If you have an idea how to rotate the data by 90 degree, please let me know , and I can send you a scanned image.

CSV stands for comma-separated values, so Excel will only accept a comma as the delimiter.=20=20 If you want Excel to just open the file without any problems, use comma for a delimiter (and .CSV for the extension) or use tab as a delimiter and use .XLS as the extension (that's what I do - Excel opens it just fine).=20=20 You could also look into SYLK (I think) - that is a better solution but more complicated.

We have a case where a simple round statement returns two different values. round(#Aetna_Ded_Emp_Prem,2) In SQRW 3 / Oracle 7.3: 32.345 = 32.34. round(#Aetna_Ded_Emp_Prem,2) In SQRW 6.2 / Oracle 9i: 32.345 = 32.35 Any insight?

Changes Since Previous Version Changes since the version dated 2003/11/01: o Update subscribe/unsubscribe instructions for new version of list server software. o New URL for "brio-l" mailing list. 2. Introduction 2.1. sqr-users Mailing List The sqr-users mailing list was created to enable discussion related to the SQR database language from Hyperion (and to other products in the SQR product suite). Note: SQR used to be published by SQRIBE Technologies, which was merged into Brio Technology on August 3, 1999. Brio Technology changed its name to Brio Software in October 2001. On October 16, 2003, Hyperion acquired Brio Software. SQR and related applications have also been called "Brio.Report" and "Brio Reports". The mailing list is provided as a service of Ray Ontko & Co. A searchable archive of past postings to the mailing list is available from the SQR Users Group web site . 2.2. sqr-users Hints and Guidelines Document This document gives various hints and guidelines about the sqr-users mailing list. It will be posted approximately monthly to the mailing list so that new users can see it (and existing users can find it easily). An HTML version of the document is always available at http://www.sqrug.org/sqr-users/sqr-users-hints.html. If you have comments or suggestions about this document, please contact me directly at the address listed in the title section. This document is Copyright (C) 1999-2004 by Ray Ontko & Co. It may be freely copied and distributed provided it is not modified in any way and it retains the original copyright notice. 2.3. Related Mailing Lists Here are some mailing lists that cover topics relating to SQR in some way. sqr-jobs : SQR Jobs This list may be used for posting SQR-related resumes, recruitments, job announcements, project announcments, help- wanted, work-wanted ads, etc. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "sqr-jobs-subscribe@yahoogroups.com". peoplesoft-fans : PeopleSoft Fans Moderated list covering technical and functional aspects of PeopleSoft.

To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "briolist- subscribe@yahoogroups.com". 3. Interacting with the list server The sqr-users mailing list is hosted using the Mailman list server package. All of the Mailman functions described below are accessed from the sqr-users List Info page, "http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users". 3.1. Subscribing to the list To subscribe to the mailing list, enter your e-mail address in the box at the top of the "Subscribing to sqr-users" section on the sqr-users List Info page, then choose a password to assign to your subscription and enter it in both "Password" boxes. This password is used to allow you to securely make changes to your subscription over the web. This password will be e-mailed back to you at varous times, so you should not use the same password as you are using elsewhere. Once you have filled in the password, click the "Subscribe" button. You should soon receive an e-mail message from the list server requesting confirmation of your subscription request. Once you have replied to this message and your subscription has been processed, you will receive a "welcome" message giving you more information on the list server, and as well as a reminder of the subscription password you chose. 3.2. Unsubscribing from the list To unsubscribe from the list, go to the sqr-users List Info page, enter your e-mail address in the "sqr-users Subscribers" section near the bottom of the page, and click the "Unsubscribe or edit options" button. You will then see the "member options" page; fill in your password at the top of the page and click "Log in". (If you have forgotton your password, see the ``Obtaining your Password'' section, below). This will take you to the "membership configuration" page. In the middle of that page, there will be an "Unsubscribing from sqr- users" section; simply turn on the "Yes, I really want to unsubscribe" checkbox and click the "Unsubscribe" button. You should get a page back saying that the removal was successful (as well as a confirmation email message). The removal will take effect immediately; there is no need to send in a confirmation e-mail message. If you don't know your password, you can choose to unsubscribe using e-mail confirmation. Instead of entering the password on the "member options" page, just click the "Unsubscribe" button found just below the "Log In" button. You will then see a page noting that a confirmation e-mail has been sent; once you follow the confirmation instructions in that e-mail your removal will be complete. 3.3. When your email address changes If your e-mail address changes -- for example, if your company changes names, or if your mail administrator changes the way your name is spelled out or abbreviated -- you will need to update your subscription to match your new address before you can post to the list (see the ``Posting'' section, below). To do this, simply log in to your "membership configuration" page (see the directions for logging in to this page in the ``Unsubscribing'' section, above). At the top of that page you'll see a "Changing your membership information" section. Fill out the text boxes and click the "Change My Address and Name" button. You will be sent a confirmation e-mail, and once you have responded to that e-mail your subscription will be updated and you can begin posting from your new address. 3.4. Digests You can request to get your messages in digest form (one large message containing all of the posts made each day). To do this, log in to your "membership configuration" page (see the directions on doing this in the ``Unsubscribing'' section, above). At the bottom of the page, you will see a section titled "Your sqr-users Subscription Options". Change the "Set Digest Mode" option (the second option in the list) to "On" and click the "Submit My Changes" button at the bottom of the page. You actually have a choice of two different digest formats, "MIME" or "Plain Text". The MIME format sends each individual list message as a separate MIME attachment to the digest; the plain text format consists of one large text message, with all of the individual messages run together. Which format you will want to use depends on your mail- reading software (and personal preference). If you are not sure which format will work best, you can just leave the default setting of "MIME" and see if the next morning's digest is easy to read in your mail reader -- you can change to the other format at any time using that same web page. If you use digests, you should not just "reply" to the digest mailing. Instead, be sure your message's subject header matches the subject in the original posting to which you are replying, and that you don't include a quoted copy of the entire digest in your post. To restore normal distribution, simply follow the above instructions choosing the "Off" setting for the Digest option. 3.5. Obtaining your password You will not be able to change your subscription options without your password. If you have forgotten your password, simply click the "Email My Password to Me" button on the "member options" page and your password will be emailed to you. You will also be e-mailed a copy of your password at the beginning of each month, as part of a "mailing list memberships reminder" message from the Mailman software. 3.6. Problems If the above instructions do not work, please contact the list manager at "sqr-users-manager@sqrug.org". (Do not send a message to the list itself -- no one there can help you with your problem!) Please include a description of what you were trying to do and what exactly happened when you made the attempt. 4. Posting to the sqr-users List In order to post to the mailing list, you must be subscribed to it (see directions above). More specifically, in order for Mailman to recognize that this message was sent by a subscriber, the return address on your message much exactly match the addresss you used to subscribe -- if you have more than one address you will need to be sure that you are sending from the correct one. (See the ``When you email address changes'' section, above, if your e-mail address has changed since you subscribed.) 4.1. General Guidelines For any message you send to the list, please: o make sure your mail software is not requesting a "Return Receipt". (If a "Return Receipt Requested" message is sent to the list, several dozen receipt messages will be sent out to the mailing list as other subscribers' mail systems repond....) o do not send messages in HTML or other special formats. (These are not usable by many subscribers, especially those who receive their messages in digest format.) The list server will delete these special attachments from your message and send you a warning notice. Also, if you are trying to send (for example) SQR source code files, make sure your mail-reader software is assigning proper MIME types to your attachments or they may not be distributed. o keep in mind that over 500 people will receive your message, and that it will appear in the list archives. Try to keep your messages on-topic and relatively short. Consider sending your message directly to particular people if it won't interest many of the list's subscribers. o ignore abusive and inappropriate messages that get sent to the list, rather than getting drawn into a debate. The very nature of these messages will cause most subscribers to automatically discredit them -- no "response" is necessary. To the contrary, any response will only "add fuel to the fire," prolonging the controversy and further interupting the normal conversation on the list. 4.2. Posting a Message Once you are subscribed, you can post to the list by sending a message to "sqr-users@sqrug.org". Be sure your subject heading describes your specific problem or question (i.e. don't just use "SQR Question"). In the body of your message, please include the following information: o SQR product name and version number (see notes below) o Operating system name and version number o Database name and version number o Application name (i.e. PeopleSoft) and a version number, if any Also, include a short code sample whenever possible. It's much easier for other people to understand what you are trying to do when they can see the actual code. (At the same time, be careful not to post confidential or proprietary code, since the posting will be placed in a public web archive.) Note that your question should relate to SQR or other Brio Report product in some way. Don't ask questions about PeopleSoft, for example, unless you are having SQR-related issues. (For PeopleSoft- specific questions, see other lists mentioned in the ``Related Mailing Lists'' section.) In 2001, PeopleSoft purchased from Brio the rights to the source code for SQR and began releasing its own line of SQR. PeopleSoft's SQR version numbering is different from Brio/Hyperion's, so it's very important to mention whether you are using Hyperion's "SQR" or "SQR for PeopleSoft". (This info is included automatically if you include the full SQR version-id string as described below.) To get the version-id string for your copy of SQR, you can run the following program: begin-program show $sqr-ver end-program This will produce a line that looks something like this: SQR/3.0.15/Intel/SCO Unix R3.2 V5.0/Oracle 7.2.2.3/Sep 25 1996 Include the full line of output in your message. Note that the oper- ating system and database version numbers listed here are the ones under which this copy of SQR was compiled, so you'll still need to include this information for your own environment. In a command-line environment (Unix, etc.), you can also get this version-id string by saying sqr -id 4.3. Replying to a Message Messages sent out on the list have a Reply-To header pointing to the list. This means that you should be able to simply use your mail reader's "reply" function to send a reply to the list. Generally, all answers to questions sent out on the list should be public replies, so that other subscribers can benefit. In those cases where a private reply is appropriate, be sure to over-ride the default Reply-To address. If your message is not actually a reply to the earlier message, please do not use the "reply" function. Instead, address a new e-mail message to the list as described in the previous section. (This is because the list archives will incorrectly show the new message in the original thread if you use "reply".) You should quote enough lines from the original message that later readers can understand your answer even if they missed the original question. At the same time, you should remove any unnecessary lines from the quote in order to make your message shorter and easier to understand. (Remember that some people read the mailing list in digest form, and the digests become much larger if unnecessary lines are quoted.) 5. Job Announcements Please do not post job announcements on the sqr-users list, but use the sqr-jobs list instead. (See ``Related Mailing Lists'' for more information on this list.) A large number of sqr-users subscribers do not want to receive job announcements (for various reasons) and such posts tend to cause a lot of disruption of the discussion on the list. _______________________________________________ sqr-users mailing list sqr-users@sqrug.org http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users From sqr-users-bounces+sqrusersarch=sqrug.org@sqrug.org Sun Aug 01 10:44:02 2004 From: "Krist Dewilde" Date: Sun, 1 Aug 2004 17:52:18 +0200 Subject: [sqr-users] eps Image in PCL file Hi, =20 We=92re currently looking for a possibility to print eps image on a LIS File.

It sounds to me like you are using "&" variables in your heading procedures, but by the time it fires (the heading fires at new-page and when the report is "closed") those values are for the *next* key. Try saving the values you use in the heading to "$" and "#" variables (remember to declare any that are dates) after the "New-Report". Then use those variables in your heading procedures instead of the "&" versions.

An array is a data structure in memory; a table, temporary or otherwise, is a file structure. Databases (and table accesses) are pretty fast these days but there is always some overhead related to the db structure and file i/o. Often, though, the real table access burden is due to location of the table on a remote machine and the network overhead involved in transferring the data. In truth, some disk i/o (swapping) may be involved with the use of arrays if they are large or not accessed all at once. This last point is something I always pay attention to. If I can load and/or access the array all in one fell swoop, I do. Not always possible. If your program is being executed on a server, even an array will experience network data transfer costs. Kind of tweaky but fun, no? Another reason programmers need to know how it all works.

An array is a data structure in memory; a table, temporary or otherwise, is a file structure.

Certainly, reading the same thing over and over from an array is faster than reading it over and over again from a networked disk drive. But are you reading the same thing over and over? Or are you reading each thing once, but inefficiently? The slowest part of most SQRs, and the area with the greatest potential for improvement, is the SQL statements. You should strive to to execute the fewest, simplest SQL statements possible. The advantage of an array, or a load-lookup statement, is that you can replace 100,000 single row selections with one selection of 100,000 rows. We could probably give you all sorts of specific advice if you tell us more about the program. -----Original Message----- From: Bartlett, Dwain [mailto:dbartlett@state.mt.us] Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2004 9:30 AM To: 'This list is for discussion about the SQR database reporting languagef rom Hyperion Solutions.'

In our case, we generate a PDF file, then our fax software converts it to a TIF format and faxes it out. In some cases, the conversion fails even though we can open the PDF file in Adobe and view it. My coworker ran the PDF through some kind of optimizer, and then the TIF file could be generated. We think there are some extra characters or some kind of funky ones inside the PDF that causes this. |---------+--------------------------------------------> | | "Penny J.

Image file report .pdf format printer-type=pd layout=layout7 end-declare This file is then picked up by another process, and emailed to a recipient. Occasionally, the file received by the user is unable to be opened by Adobe Reader, with an error "Unable to open file, file has been corrupted". If we rerun the SQR program to generate the file again, the emailed file works this time. Since my manager has handled this in the past and not gotten me involved, I haven't had a chance to look at the file before it gets rewritten to see if it's corrupted on our server before it goes out in the email or if it's corrupted by the email/by sending the email/by receiving the email. I've made sure he knows that I want to see the file before it's replaced the next time this happens, as it's entirely possible this isn't an SQR issue, but an email issue... however, he wanted me to ask for feedback from the user group in case someone else has encountered this. Additionally, if the recipient has a Yahoo mail account, that software treats the attached file as part of the body and displays the binary data in the body of the file. I'm 99.9% certain that has nothing to do with SQR nor the content of the file, but the way the file is attached. It's been a problem for some other email programs, but, for example, works fine consistently on Hotmail. The program that actually identifies that there is a file to be emailed and generates the email is a custom application built by a coworker using ASP running on Windows 2000, and interfaces with Microsoft Exchange to create the email from data stored in a flat text file that contains sender, recipient, subject, body, and if there is an attachment, the file path for the attachment file. SQR version is 8.0, running on RedHat Advanced Server Linux box. Has anyone else had issues like this or any ideas of a better way to do this?

They are tricky to debug because the symptom only happens occasionally. If I recall correctly, the problem was that our automatic processing of the PDF started before SQR was completely done generating the file. If you are running the SQR with the "-printer:pd" the final rendering of the PDF file seems to happen asynchronously. Try running the SQR with the "-nolis" option and then explicitly calling sqrp to generate the PDF file. Hope this helps, Eric Penny J.

The begin-select loop opens an Oracle cursor. Commit and rollback close all open cursors on that connection. You may have to select the data you need into a temporary file or array if you really need to do commits/rollbacks while processing.

Heeren" Actually this is pretty similar to how we USED to send our emails using UUENCODE. We didn't have anything hard-coded, but would instead populate everything from various values in tables or based on certain logic. However, we were having issues when the attachments weren't always getting the 'close' (crlf . crlf ?) indication, so the recipients email server kept waiting for the last piece of the email to indicate that it had the whole file and would time out. Wouldn't happen all of the time, but about 10% of the time we would get a response back from the other email server that the email 'timed out' and did not get delivered after a couple of days. Since then, we simply created a text file with the header and body of the email and a line 'attachement file:' with it's path. And the ASP email program we're using opens the file, and creates the email with the attachment and sends it. Now we've got about a 99% success rate with only a few issues with a 'corrupt' PDF. -----Original Message----- From: Hins, Thomas D.

Subject: RE: [sqr-users] PDF Files created by SQR I just wrote an SQR and from Unix I email files to different users. The trouble is I hardcoded the email addresses, I didn't like that but I would have liked to make a small table and load the filename, email address to receive it and retrieve it from there each time but didn't take the time to do that. That way I could just update the table and not change the sqr, add recepients if I want etc. Here is the email code I used. I'll probably change it in the future to use a table to get who receives the different files. You are also suppose to be able to have a subj line, etc and I found I could have a subject line and no attachment or an attachment and no subject line, played around for awhile and couldn't get both to work if someone else has experience and wants to share that would be appreciated.

One way I know of is to call an external sql script with the call system using SQR command, the external script can select the image and write it to a file, which your SQR program can then access.

LONG RAW shows up as a hexadecimal string in SQR. On some versions of SQR on some platforms, the maximum string length is 32K, so the longest number of bytes represented by a 32K string would be a 16K LONG RAW. You'd have to write a routine that converted the the hex to integer values, and write these to a binary file, byte-by_byte. With CLOB, the story is different. What I have done here is to use PL/SQL code to retreive the CLOB and break it into smaller pieces, which I return to SQR as separate variables. I then assemble these into a bigger string, up to 32K. Due to a limitation in SQR, I think I was limited to 1999 characters at a time, so I had to pass the value in 17 variables, but it worked fine. If the data were stored in a BLOB instead of a CLOB, you could probably blend the two approaches: use PL/SQL code to get the values and convert the BLOB into a hex string, pass it in pieces to SQR, and then convert from hex to binary to write a file. There are probably easier ways with PL/SQL to tell oracle to write a blob or clob or long raw to a file.

The easiest way to check this is to turn on job factory debugging (set jf_debug=true in the startup script). Then the job factory will keep the sqr command it used to run the report. This is kept in the .../server/JFxxxxxxx/tmp directory. You might either see the problem straight away, or you can rerun the SQR command (sqrexec.bat or sqrexec.sh) outside portal and debug that way.

If you are on Tools release 7.5x or earlier, both type definitions called the SQR compiler directly, but the type definition for SQR Processes did not include the parameters Operator ID and Run Control ID (it was left up to the individual process definition to determine if they were necessary); the type definition for SQR Reports did. As of version 8.x, both type definitions call the utility program PSSQR.EXE (not the compiler) and the two definitions are identical, with both containing the Operator ID and Run Control ID parameters. So as of version 8.x, it makes absolutely no difference which one you use, you will get the exact same result. From a Philosophical perspective, SQR Report should be use for any type of report program that you create, whereas SQR Process should be used for any type of interface or database update program.

You'd have to do this in a Begin-Select rather than a Begin-SQL clause, which is normally bad news, but you seem to be doing that anyway. The last time I had the misfortune to work on a DB2 (rolls eyes and looks down nose) site, I asked an old hand what you do without rownum, and he said you just have to take it on a case by case basis. _______________________________________________ sqr-users mailing list sqr-users@sqrug.org http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users From sqr-users-bounces+sqrusersarch=sqrug.org@sqrug.org Wed Aug 18 14:43:38 2004 From: Bob Stone Subject: RE: [sqr-users] question on rownum Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2004 14:41:06 -0500 the rownum line wont work, i'm pretty sure. the 'and rownum < 2' is oracle syntax, and sqr is database independant. so the solution you should use is Begin-SELECT loops=1 lvl.DeptId lvl.DM_Dept_Lvl FROM PS_dept-tbl lvl WHERE effdt = (Select Max(Effdt) from PS_Dept_tbl lvl2 where lvl2.deptid =lvl.deptid and effdt<= Sysdate) AND lvl.DM_dept_lvl < = '11' End-Select ...but make sure that you do an ORDER BY to grab the one you want, or be sure that there's only one row. -----Original Message----- From: sqr-users-bounces+bstone=fastenal.com@sqrug.org [mailto:sqr-users-bounces+bstone=fastenal.com@sqrug.org]On Behalf Of subrahmanyam Uppuganti Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 1:25 PM To: sqr-users@sqrug.org Subject: [sqr-users] question on rownum Hi all, Does the following syntax work in sqr..else can some suggest me an alternative, I need to get only the first row Thanks subbu Begin-Select lvl.DeptId lvl.DM_Dept_Lvl >From PS_dept-tbl lvl where effdt = (Select Max(Effdt) from PS_Dept_tbl lvl2 where lvl2.deptid =lvl.deptid and effdt<= Sysdate) and lvl.DM_dept_lvl < = '11' and rownum = 1 <-----???????????

You have to use "call system" to pipe an "ls -l" command into a file, then read and parse the directory listing. Unix will show the date in different formats depending on how recent the datetime is. -----Original Message----- From: Yuri Lakef [mailto:lakef250@yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, August 30, 2004 8:05 AM To: sqr-users@sqrug.org Subject: Re: [sqr-users] check datetime stamp on file RESEND: Anyone know how to determine datetime of a file programmatically?

The Peoplesoft application is HR/Payroll version 7.51 running on PeopleTools 7.61. Our database is MS SQL Server 2000 version 8.00. My question is : Can you execute a command inside an SQR program that will initiate MS Outlook, take a report file, and email to a specified recipient? If the answer is yes, what is the structure of the syntax, or do you have sample code? Thank you very much. Regards, Alan Lim California Water Services, Inc.

Before each record is loaded, there are two monetary fields that should be checked and possibly edited before being loaded into the temp table. If the fields are either negative or null then, their values should be changed to 0. SQR does not like the syntax or something. It abended complaining about the = sign after the fields that should be edited. Here is the SQL I'm using. By the way, I ran the SQL in SQL Server and it worked fine! I use SQR Server v.6x and MicroSoft SQL Server 2000 v.8 -- begin-SQL INSERT [$Temp_NetContrib] SELECT WDI_01.ID, WDTA_01.netcontribtot, WDTA_01.edit_netcontribtot = (CASE WHEN netcontribtot IS NULL THEN cast(0 as money) WHEN netcontribtot < 0 THEN cast(0 as money) ELSE cast(netcontribtot as money) END), WDTA_01.netcommit, WDTA_01.edit_netcommit = (CASE WHEN netcommit IS NULL THEN cast(0 as money) WHEN netcommit < 0 THEN cast(0 as money) ELSE cast(netcommit as money) END) FROM [$wk_dyn_IDList] WDI_01, [$wk_dyn_tbl] WDTA_01 WHERE WDI_01.id *= WDTA_01.id _______________________________________________ sqr-users mailing list sqr-users@sqrug.org http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users From sqr-users-bounces+sqrusersarch=sqrug.org@sqrug.org Thu Aug 26 13:19:23 2004 From: "Dinesh Bhandary" Date: Thu, 26 Aug 2004 11:16:34 -0700 Subject: [sqr-users] question How can I reference to built in function like -ZIV or -printer:HP.

(perhaps it should be $credit_class ;-) You can mix in the query the SQR variables and the SQL statements. That possibly one of the reasons why SQR uses '$', '#' and such identifiers for the variables : it allows the interpreters to recognize the SQR and the SQL variables. I hope I did answer correctly...

You could also use DECODE (with Oracle) or maybe even order by (salary>30000), empname, addr1 [I didn't try this] which would be treated as a logical variable, with other databases. The ORDER BY clause is evaluated BEFORE the sql is executed ... before any rows are fetched. Your logic seems to be attempting to change it with every row fetched. That won't work. The solution you used is a good one because it does what you want: converts the salary value to a binary expression. Note that you CAN say order by [$type], empname, addr1 but $type still has to be set before the query is started, and changing its value as rows are fetched will not have any effect. You can also say let $orderby = 'order by ''' || $type || ''', empname, addr1' ... begin-sql variables ... from ... [$orderby] This is handy when you might have a different number of variables in the ORDER BY from run to run; it permits you to include or exclude the necessary variable and its associated comma. I suspect from your question, and especially your use of different types and comparisons for &sal and $sal, that you are new to SQR. It would be of great help to you, and would probably save you a LOT of debugging time in the future, to ask your supervisor or mentor to explain the variable types, and what happens inside Oracle or other database systems when you try to mix columns and variables of different types.

Changes Since Previous Version Changes since the version dated 2003/11/01: o Update subscribe/unsubscribe instructions for new version of list server software. o New URL for "brio-l" mailing list. 2. Introduction 2.1. sqr-users Mailing List The sqr-users mailing list was created to enable discussion related to the SQR database language from Hyperion (and to other products in the SQR product suite). Note: SQR used to be published by SQRIBE Technologies, which was merged into Brio Technology on August 3, 1999. Brio Technology changed its name to Brio Software in October 2001. On October 16, 2003, Hyperion acquired Brio Software. SQR and related applications have also been called "Brio.Report" and "Brio Reports". The mailing list is provided as a service of Ray Ontko & Co. A searchable archive of past postings to the mailing list is available from the SQR Users Group web site . 2.2. sqr-users Hints and Guidelines Document This document gives various hints and guidelines about the sqr-users mailing list. It will be posted approximately monthly to the mailing list so that new users can see it (and existing users can find it easily). An HTML version of the document is always available at http://www.sqrug.org/sqr-users/sqr-users-hints.html. If you have comments or suggestions about this document, please contact me directly at the address listed in the title section. This document is Copyright (C) 1999-2004 by Ray Ontko & Co. It may be freely copied and distributed provided it is not modified in any way and it retains the original copyright notice. 2.3. Related Mailing Lists Here are some mailing lists that cover topics relating to SQR in some way. sqr-jobs : SQR Jobs This list may be used for posting SQR-related resumes, recruitments, job announcements, project announcments, help- wanted, work-wanted ads, etc. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "sqr-jobs-subscribe@yahoogroups.com". peoplesoft-fans : PeopleSoft Fans Moderated list covering technical and functional aspects of PeopleSoft. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "peoplesoft-fans-subscribe@yahoogroups.com". psusers : PeopleSoft Users For questions related to any aspect of PeopleSoft (including PeopleSoft-specific SQR issues).

To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "brioportalusersgroup- subscribe@yahoogroups.com". brio-l : OpenITx Brio List List for technical and functional discussion of all Brio products (but most messages are currently about Brio Intelligence). To join, follow the link above. briousers : Brio.Enter- prise Users List for discussion of the Brio.Enterprise (now called Intelligence) product. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "briousers-subscribe@yahoogroups.com". briolist : Brio List List for discussion of Brio Intelligence. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "briolist- subscribe@yahoogroups.com". 3. Interacting with the list server The sqr-users mailing list is hosted using the Mailman list server package. All of the Mailman functions described below are accessed from the sqr-users List Info page, "http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users". 3.1. Subscribing to the list To subscribe to the mailing list, enter your e-mail address in the box at the top of the "Subscribing to sqr-users" section on the sqr-users List Info page, then choose a password to assign to your subscription and enter it in both "Password" boxes. This password is used to allow you to securely make changes to your subscription over the web. This password will be e-mailed back to you at varous times, so you should not use the same password as you are using elsewhere. Once you have filled in the password, click the "Subscribe" button. You should soon receive an e-mail message from the list server requesting confirmation of your subscription request. Once you have replied to this message and your subscription has been processed, you will receive a "welcome" message giving you more information on the list server, and as well as a reminder of the subscription password you chose. 3.2. Unsubscribing from the list To unsubscribe from the list, go to the sqr-users List Info page, enter your e-mail address in the "sqr-users Subscribers" section near the bottom of the page, and click the "Unsubscribe or edit options" button. You will then see the "member options" page; fill in your password at the top of the page and click "Log in". (If you have forgotton your password, see the ``Obtaining your Password'' section, below). This will take you to the "membership configuration" page. In the middle of that page, there will be an "Unsubscribing from sqr- users" section; simply turn on the "Yes, I really want to unsubscribe" checkbox and click the "Unsubscribe" button. You should get a page back saying that the removal was successful (as well as a confirmation email message). The removal will take effect immediately; there is no need to send in a confirmation e-mail message. If you don't know your password, you can choose to unsubscribe using e-mail confirmation. Instead of entering the password on the "member options" page, just click the "Unsubscribe" button found just below the "Log In" button. You will then see a page noting that a confirmation e-mail has been sent; once you follow the confirmation instructions in that e-mail your removal will be complete. 3.3. When your email address changes If your e-mail address changes -- for example, if your company changes names, or if your mail administrator changes the way your name is spelled out or abbreviated -- you will need to update your subscription to match your new address before you can post to the list (see the ``Posting'' section, below). To do this, simply log in to your "membership configuration" page (see the directions for logging in to this page in the ``Unsubscribing'' section, above). At the top of that page you'll see a "Changing your membership information" section. Fill out the text boxes and click the "Change My Address and Name" button. You will be sent a confirmation e-mail, and once you have responded to that e-mail your subscription will be updated and you can begin posting from your new address. 3.4. Digests You can request to get your messages in digest form (one large message containing all of the posts made each day). To do this, log in to your "membership configuration" page (see the directions on doing this in the ``Unsubscribing'' section, above). At the bottom of the page, you will see a section titled "Your sqr-users Subscription Options". Change the "Set Digest Mode" option (the second option in the list) to "On" and click the "Submit My Changes" button at the bottom of the page. You actually have a choice of two different digest formats, "MIME" or "Plain Text". The MIME format sends each individual list message as a separate MIME attachment to the digest; the plain text format consists of one large text message, with all of the individual messages run together. Which format you will want to use depends on your mail- reading software (and personal preference). If you are not sure which format will work best, you can just leave the default setting of "MIME" and see if the next morning's digest is easy to read in your mail reader -- you can change to the other format at any time using that same web page. If you use digests, you should not just "reply" to the digest mailing. Instead, be sure your message's subject header matches the subject in the original posting to which you are replying, and that you don't include a quoted copy of the entire digest in your post. To restore normal distribution, simply follow the above instructions choosing the "Off" setting for the Digest option. 3.5. Obtaining your password You will not be able to change your subscription options without your password. If you have forgotten your password, simply click the "Email My Password to Me" button on the "member options" page and your password will be emailed to you. You will also be e-mailed a copy of your password at the beginning of each month, as part of a "mailing list memberships reminder" message from the Mailman software. 3.6. Problems If the above instructions do not work, please contact the list manager at "sqr-users-manager@sqrug.org". (Do not send a message to the list itself -- no one there can help you with your problem!) Please include a description of what you were trying to do and what exactly happened when you made the attempt. 4. Posting to the sqr-users List In order to post to the mailing list, you must be subscribed to it (see directions above). More specifically, in order for Mailman to recognize that this message was sent by a subscriber, the return address on your message much exactly match the addresss you used to subscribe -- if you have more than one address you will need to be sure that you are sending from the correct one. (See the ``When you email address changes'' section, above, if your e-mail address has changed since you subscribed.) 4.1. General Guidelines For any message you send to the list, please: o make sure your mail software is not requesting a "Return Receipt". (If a "Return Receipt Requested" message is sent to the list, several dozen receipt messages will be sent out to the mailing list as other subscribers' mail systems repond....) o do not send messages in HTML or other special formats. (These are not usable by many subscribers, especially those who receive their messages in digest format.) The list server will delete these special attachments from your message and send you a warning notice. Also, if you are trying to send (for example) SQR source code files, make sure your mail-reader software is assigning proper MIME types to your attachments or they may not be distributed. o keep in mind that over 500 people will receive your message, and that it will appear in the list archives. Try to keep your messages on-topic and relatively short. Consider sending your message directly to particular people if it won't interest many of the list's subscribers. o ignore abusive and inappropriate messages that get sent to the list, rather than getting drawn into a debate. The very nature of these messages will cause most subscribers to automatically discredit them -- no "response" is necessary. To the contrary, any response will only "add fuel to the fire," prolonging the controversy and further interupting the normal conversation on the list. 4.2. Posting a Message Once you are subscribed, you can post to the list by sending a message to "sqr-users@sqrug.org". Be sure your subject heading describes your specific problem or question (i.e. don't just use "SQR Question"). In the body of your message, please include the following information: o SQR product name and version number (see notes below) o Operating system name and version number o Database name and version number o Application name (i.e. PeopleSoft) and a version number, if any Also, include a short code sample whenever possible. It's much easier for other people to understand what you are trying to do when they can see the actual code. (At the same time, be careful not to post confidential or proprietary code, since the posting will be placed in a public web archive.) Note that your question should relate to SQR or other Brio Report product in some way. Don't ask questions about PeopleSoft, for example, unless you are having SQR-related issues. (For PeopleSoft- specific questions, see other lists mentioned in the ``Related Mailing Lists'' section.) In 2001, PeopleSoft purchased from Brio the rights to the source code for SQR and began releasing its own line of SQR. PeopleSoft's SQR version numbering is different from Brio/Hyperion's, so it's very important to mention whether you are using Hyperion's "SQR" or "SQR for PeopleSoft". (This info is included automatically if you include the full SQR version-id string as described below.) To get the version-id string for your copy of SQR, you can run the following program: begin-program show $sqr-ver end-program This will produce a line that looks something like this: SQR/3.0.15/Intel/SCO Unix R3.2 V5.0/Oracle 7.2.2.3/Sep 25 1996 Include the full line of output in your message. Note that the oper- ating system and database version numbers listed here are the ones under which this copy of SQR was compiled, so you'll still need to include this information for your own environment. In a command-line environment (Unix, etc.), you can also get this version-id string by saying sqr -id 4.3. Replying to a Message Messages sent out on the list have a Reply-To header pointing to the list. This means that you should be able to simply use your mail reader's "reply" function to send a reply to the list. Generally, all answers to questions sent out on the list should be public replies, so that other subscribers can benefit. In those cases where a private reply is appropriate, be sure to over-ride the default Reply-To address. If your message is not actually a reply to the earlier message, please do not use the "reply" function. Instead, address a new e-mail message to the list as described in the previous section. (This is because the list archives will incorrectly show the new message in the original thread if you use "reply".) You should quote enough lines from the original message that later readers can understand your answer even if they missed the original question. At the same time, you should remove any unnecessary lines from the quote in order to make your message shorter and easier to understand. (Remember that some people read the mailing list in digest form, and the digests become much larger if unnecessary lines are quoted.) 5. Job Announcements Please do not post job announcements on the sqr-users list, but use the sqr-jobs list instead. (See ``Related Mailing Lists'' for more information on this list.) A large number of sqr-users subscribers do not want to receive job announcements (for various reasons) and such posts tend to cause a lot of disruption of the discussion on the list. _______________________________________________ sqr-users mailing list sqr-users@sqrug.org http://www.sqrug.org/mailman/listinfo/sqr-users From sqr-users-bounces+sqrusersarch=sqrug.org@sqrug.org Wed Sep 01 08:59:50 2004 From: "radhika reddy" Date: Wed, 01 Sep 2004 08:47:32 -0500 Subject: [sqr-users] Leading Zeroes in Excel file Hi, I want to display leading zeroes in excel file for a salary column.

All these are done by the Built-In Functions that are supplied by Hyperion SQRViewer ActiveX control. But my question here is, we have a requirement in our application that if a report is scheduled and generated for all region/counties in a state on the server, and if the user decides to select and retrieve either one or a group of counties within a state then is there a way to filter the data either in the SPF file or in the SQR Viewer ActiveX Control. I kind of looked into the manuals but I did not find any info on that. If any of you have implemented a similar kind of solution, I would appreciate if you could share the solution with me.

The new release allows you to run sqr program as normal or in interactive debug mode on remote server (e.g. Unix using Unix sqr) while enjoying existing windows GUI interface. Sqr developers interested in participating in this program may accept the invitation by responding to following URL: www.sritech.com.au/v7beta.html Details for new version will be posted on our web site (www.sritech.com.au) as we progress.

Then if it compiles and changes data in the way that looks like what you want, you're free to move it up to the actual database. Having a test environment is a good idea anyway.

Then incase you have inserts on the table and the this results in duplicates you can trap the SQL Error and choose to ignore that row being inserted. Else For time being change all the truncates to deletes and then Issue a Rollback in the end. Best is to always have a Test Environment. :) But I do understand some times things need to be fixed in production directly. HTH Datta. --- "Kaithi, Murali" wrote: > That's what my problem is.

When this is done, the program is compiled but not executed. If the compilation is successful, and sqt file is also created.

If you have defined variables either using DECLARE-VARIABLE directive or using #define dim $variable_name ... directive, SqrPlus compiler ensures that your program does not suffer from any hidden bugs that may be present due to mere typing error. You can run your program in debug mode and quit on the first statement. You get into debug mode only if your program does not have any errors.

I think that's what you want to happen. When you're ready to execute the program, remove the STOP. Alternately, you can make the first command an INPUT statement. Be careful that it doesn't read its value from your command line. When the program asks you for input, you can stop it yourself. The "-RS" option on the command line will try to compile your program and save the compiled version, but not execute it. That's another way to compile without executing. As you observed, ROLLBACK doesn't reverse TRUNCATE. It also won't reverse file operations, like overwriting an existing file. -----Original Message----- From: Kaithi, Murali [mailto:Murali.Kaithi@spencergifts.com] Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 6:24 AM To: This list is for discussion about the SQR database reportinglanguage fr omHyperion Solutions.

Any additional or specific help would be appreciated. I have been trying to set up a process to copy a table from a SQL 2000 Server database to an Oracle 8.1.7.3.0 database inside of an SQR running on SQL Server. The SQR is executed from the SQL environment and I have a database link defined to the Oracle database using Microsoft Ole db for Oracle. I have verified that the link works by running the delete and insert processes from SQL Query Analyzer. I tried using the following select to see if I can even get to the Oracle database from an SQR: BEGIN-SELECT ON-ERROR=SELECT-ERROR a.XXXX_XXX &xxxx_xxx FROM DDMDB..HRIS_DM.XX_XXXXXXXXX_XXX a END-SELECT DDMDB is the database link, HRIS_DM is the Oracle schema user and the remainder is the oracle table (standard 4 part name convention) This same syntax works from SQL Query Analyzer but causes the following error when executed from SQR. SQR 5528) ODBC SQL dbdesc: SQLNumResultCols error 7300 in cursor 20: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d01b].

Or, in other words, if you have ' || ' in a row in an expression, you can just eliminate of all four of those punctuation marks from your expression and the result will be the same. Following this hint, the above expression can be simplified to: let $output = ' j.action_dt between ''' || $FromDate || ''' and ''' || $ThruDate || '''' (This is completely unrelated to the syntactical rule in SQR that you put two single-quote characters together in a string literal in order to produce one single-quote character in the resulting string -- though in actual usage its pretty rare to see expressions like let $output = ' j.action_dt ' || 'between x.start_date ' || 'and sysdate' instead of just let $output = ' j.action_dt between x.start_date and sysdate' even though the principle is the same in that example and the one above [which is pretty common].)

First, the format should be "lastname suffix,firstname" as you say, but many Peoplesoft sites find that the users have been inconsistant. Also, we cannot assume that the suffix is whatever appears after the first space and before the comma. Some lastnames have spaces, and some data entry has an extra comma. Fortunately, PS_PERSONAL_DATA also has fields for first name and last name separately. You can hope that those fields are spelled the same as the firstname and lastname in the name field. Use those fields to strip away as much as you can from the name field, then search it for your suffixes. Search for longer values first. If you have a "III" or a "I I", you don't want to just pick up an "I". Also be prepared for mixed case; "Iii". -----Original Message----- From: Raj Srinivasan [mailto:raj.srinivasan@hccs.edu] Sent: Monday, September 13, 2004 9:30 AM To: This list is for discussion about the SQR database reportinglanguage fr omHyperion Solutions.

Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2004 08:01:41 -0400 This is pretty crude but I guess one way is to substring the first digit of $RCACd and then evaluate that. Something like let $First_digit = substr($RCACd,1,1) evaluate $First_digit when = '5' when = '6' break when-other break end-evaluate I'm not sure what other $RCACd values you have but I guess you could just work around that. :) Hope this helps! :) Thanks, Ma-an Sapitan * (632) 841-0111 loc. 4549 -----Original Message----- From: Shailesh Sugandhi [mailto:shailesh.sugandhi@patni.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2004 5:49 PM To: sqr-users@sqrug.org Subject: [sqr-users] Can I use like % with WHEN in SQR?

Writing into the CSV File 2. Reporting using comma delimiter using Print Statements. The second way has limitations with respect to the increase number= of reporting columns + rows, which enroute to environmental issues. If you want the output to be CSV, you better use the file concept= s and write into the same. This method would be safe and reliable. But then= you can't see the output on mere click of the DETAILS link in process moni= tor. Instead you should refer to the location where the output is stored. =20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20 With Best Regards, Murty MVS Software Developer +9144-28241970 Ext:233 (For Client Sun Trust) -----Original Message----- From: radhika reddy [mailto:radhika_05@hotmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2004 7:24 AM To: sqr-users@sqrug.org Subject: RE: [sqr-users] Output to Details Hi, I could get my output when i click DETAILS in process monitor.When i ran= =20 the SQR I selected the Type to be web and Format to be CSV, i get the outpu= t=20 in explorer in a different format.
