Default Reports 10g and packages - 04-25-2007 , 09:54 PM






I am in the midst of converting a few reports from Crystal Reports to Oracle
10g reports. I have built a package to hold my code in the first report and
the calling functions to get a ref cursor returned and such. However, when
I try to move the code (package definition and body) into the database I am
running against, reports seems to not know where the package I am calling
is..

I have read the online docs and such and do not see anywhere that it is
posted that you can't move the package code and type definition of the ref
cursor out of the report.

Any help here?

Oracle 10g Reports running on a Windows XP desktop machine. Attaching to an
Oracle 10g database on a AIX box.

Thank you,

'Seems not to know' is too vague and calls for crystal balls.
Obviously, those have worn out over the years.

Sorry Sybrand, I was too vague there. What I found is I needed to attach
the package code to the report and then build a small sql function to call a
function in the package to return the required data via a ref cursor (not my
desire, specs given by another)...

Thanks!
