I have been working on the below (needs some tweaking and tested thoroughly) seems like its kinda giving me what I am looking but yet again those last two columns are difficult to calculate since the DATE_COMPLETED_DCPS field can change from NULL to a date value at any time during the...

oradba101 - I don't know enough about Crystal Reports. I am guessing they are similar products made by two different companies. Actuate allows Drag and drop reporting. Connecting to a database and choosing a data source ( I use pl/sql stored procedure). Also allows the user the ability to...

thargtheslayer - this is what I am stuck on. "modify it to work for a different month" I can't figure out how to get the results I want for the last to columns in the query to work for 12 different months. I can only get it to work for a single month.

I forgot to mention that I did make a suggestion, but the higher ups shot it down, was to run a batch job either weekly or monthly to accumlate the required record count TOTALS and save this information to a table in the database. Then when the user chose to generate the report the information...

Santa Musfa - my without success options are many but I can describe a few that I have tried. The big problem is getting the correct results for the last two SUM columns OUT_PLUS_2 AND OUT_LESS_2. These are record counts of what records are outstanding greater then 2 weeks or less then 2 weeks...

LKbrwnDBA - this won't work for the last two totals OUT_PLUS_2 and OUT_LESS_2. These fields represent outstanding record count (not completed) older then 2 weeks within each month and outstanding record count (not completed) less then 2 week old within the same month this is done by using the...

I'm stumped...I have researched and tried different ways to resolve this without success. Hopefully someone can give me some ideas because I'm all out. I am trying to populate a REF CURSOR in a PL/SQL stored procedure so that Actuate 8 reporting software can access to generate a report. I can...

I didn't think that at all .... [smile] Just wanted to let you know where I was coming from. I know that I could create a different function in the NewCompClass that would retrieve data from the database based on the sorted column selected by the user but I would rather not if thats what you...

Thanks for responding. The NewCompClass sets up private variables and public properties as well as performing all database functions such as getting (GetRecords below), inserting, updating and deleting records from the Oracle database. Public Shared Function GetRecords() As NewCollection...

I am new to VB.NET. I am working with VS 2003. My issue is that I want to sort the current binded datagrid without going back to the database to obtain the records based on the new sort criteria selected by the user. Upon intially loading the datagrid was binded using a collection. Public...

Thanks.. I will try that...

It seems since we have upgraded to 10g (version 10.2.0.1.0) When executing batch jobs (to execute PL/SQL packages via SQLPLUS)the Oracle messsage ORA-28002; the password will expire within XX days is no longer appearing in the output log. I have done some research and the SQL*PLUS release...

Thanks everyone, I signed up to learn HTML on http://webdesign.about.com. I have not started yet but it looks like they send you a weekly syllabus and give you weekly lessons to practice what you have learned. I learn better by doing not just reading. This class also will discuss XTML. Upon...

Thanks monksnake, thats what I thought. I started reading the XML tutorial on W3C schools website and after the DTD section I quickly lost the picture.

I am interested advancing my career and becoming more marketable. I would like to start developing websites. I previously developed in COBOL now I am using PL/SQL. What do you suggest I learn first HTML, XML, or some other language?
