Report output through Oracle Apps
Hi,
I have a report using Euro(€) as a currency symbol. I am using chr(128) to get € symbol.
The report being executed through concurrent program. I set destination format as PDFin conc program.
When I run the report through Conc Program, the ghost view is showing the symol € and if I give print from ghost view the symbol € is printing But If i opt printer in applications
then report is not printing. It appears to me something like the Pl/sql code is printing.
If I set post script format in conc Program the symbol € is not printing in both ghost view
as well as report output.
I am using reports 6i in oracle apps 11i.
can any one analyse the problem please.

Please once again go through the described problem .
1. I already said i am using chr(128) fro that symbol.
And I also mentioned the report is being printed through ghost view in athe applications.
Hence Reports 6i Euro support, Windows, Printer support ....can be ruled out.
My problem is If i directly print through concurrent program in the application the report is
output is not printed .
I am thinking the problem lies rughly with areas like PDF format, concurrent programme and Unix. I don't know exactly where the problem lies. I appreciate if any one give the right direction.

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
From Reports 6i Release Notes on Euro support:
13.1.3 Euro Currency Symbol Has Limited Support
There is limited support in this release for the Euro currency
symbol.
To enable a limited use of the Euro symbol in this release, you
must do the following:
1. If you are using Windows 95 or NT, update that operating
system with the appropriate Euro-related patch from
Microsoft.
(Windows 98 already contains the Euro support.)
2. Install Microsoft TrueType fonts that contain the Euro
symbol.
3. Verify that your database and client NLS_LANG character sets
both support the Euro symbol. If you will print the Euro
symbol, Euro support on the printer is also required.
Microsoft has reserved hexcode 0x80 for the Euro symbol. To
enter the Euro symbol on keyboards without an explicit Euro key,
click the NumLock key to enable the Numeric Keypad, then click
Alt + 0128.
