Hi,
I might be out here in the darkness...but if it is a web generated report there is always a search method in the browser I guess.
But I have a feeling you need something else.


Best Regards,
Lars

Hi,
OK, I get it, sorry.

I think that is what the parameter form is meant to support, to extract the data you really want to have.

I have never seen a search field in a report that is ready and already shown. But it might be able to do that, I do not know how.


Best Regards,
Lars

Hi,
For what it is worth, I have worked with Oracle Reports since ReportWriter 1.1 and never heard this demand from a user. Maybe there is a way to teach users how to find data in a more efficient way, and use search tools in stead of a report tool.


Best Regards,
Lars
