Hi

I have a SQL* plus report which displays the changes made to the responsibilities assigned to the user. Basically is a Responsibility is added/modified to the user. Details are printed like :User Name, Responsibility Name, Assignment start date, end date so on. .. In SQL * plus reports the output shown is always tabular. But the user needs the output in vertical format. Something like :



===================================================================================================================================== ===============

The access to the following responsibility has been changed for user: User Name


Responsibility: Responsibility Name
Change Date: change_date


Assign.Start Date: start date
Assign.End Date: End date


===================================================================================================================================== ===============

Please help me in formatting this kind of output for SQL*plus report. Many thanks in advance.

My report code is as follows :

set head on
set pagesize 350
set linesize 350
TTITLE CENTER "XX 100 613 Responsibility Change Report" SKIP 1 -
Center "From Date: " '&&1' SKIP 1 -
Center "To Date: " '&&2' SKIP 1 -
Center "Run Date: " TODAY
column eol newline
SELECT DISTINCT
TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'MM/DD/YYYY hh24:mi:ss') "TODAY",
'The access to the following responsibility has been changed for user:'||resp_chng.employee_name eol,
'Responsibility:'||resp_chng.responsibility_name eol,
'Change Date:'||resp_chng.resp_last_update_date eol,
'Assign.Start Date:'||resp_chng.resp_start_date eol,
'Assign.End Date:'||resp_chng.resp_end_date eol,
'User Start Date:'||resp_chng.resp_creation_date eol,
'User End Date:'||resp_chng.resp_last_update_date eol
FROM xx.xx_rs_100_613_emp_resp_chng resp_chng, fnd_user fu_cr, fnd_user fu_upd
WHERE fu_cr.user_id = resp_chng.RESP_CREATED_BY
AND fu_upd.user_id = resp_chng.RESP_LAST_UPDATED_BY
-- AND TRUNC(resp_chng.resp_last_update_date) BETWEEN TO_DATE('&&1','YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS') AND TO_DATE('&&2','YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS')
ORDER BY --TRUNC('User End Date:'||resp_chng.resp_last_update_date),
'The access to the following responsibility has been changed for user:'||resp_chng.employee_name ;



Please help me in eliminating the EOL printing at the start of the report.

Many Thanks in Advance...

The junk characters still repeat even after following the code above. I noticed that as I'm printing 7 columns the junk character is printing 7 times at the begining of each page. Please let me know how to avoid.

Are you talking about the column headers?
You should make yourself more clear, instead of "junk characters".
If you really are talking about the headers, set heading off

And maybe you should read SQL*PlusĀ® User's Guide and Reference, chapter 6 Formatting SQL*Plus Reports and SQL*Plus Command Summary and no more rely on others to find answer to these SQL*Plus questions.

Michel
