Looking to take the results of an oracle report and inserting specific data from the report into a table after the report finishes running. Not sure where to start? I think I need to do something in the report triggers.

I'd say that you are right - triggers are capable of inserting data into a table. What data are you, actually, talking about? If it is some kind of logging information (for example, time when report was executed), no problem.

If you'd, on the other hand, want to insert result of report's query, whoa, that's something different as you'll have to execute the report twice - first time to create report output, and the second time to do INSERT INTO ... SELECT FROM. I'm not sure that this is something I'd like to do.

I was afraid that was going to be the answer. Definitely don't want to execute the report twice. I'll have to think of something else.

Thanks
