The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to write ref cursor query in Oracle Reports

Asked by vishal_singh in Oracle 9.x, Oracle 10.x, PL / SQL

Tags: Oracle Reports 9i

Hello Guys!!

I have a form in which you can select regions/divisions/locations etc by the use of check boxes. And the selected values will be inserted into a table, and based on the selected values of the table the report is run.
The issue I have is with the query inside the Oracle reports(attached to this file).
The query works fine until the last two EXISTS conditions.
IF a region exists In the table report_param then it works fine but if there are no divisions in it , then the query returns no values, which is not correct.

Someone has advised me to use a ref-cursor query inside reports tool, which I am not aware off. So, anykind of suggestions or advises are welcome. Please let me know about it as it is very urgent issue for me. Anykind of help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
Vishal
