Migration Forms 6i to Forms 10g

[mdevf]

Personnel,

I am making the migration of a system built in forms 6i for developer 10g

The migration of reports in Bitmap mode are generated in .pdf Perfectly

But can not make printing in character in matrix printer someone

has passed through this and found a solution to this problem?

I am using:
Oracle 10g (10.2) OS: Linux Red Hat
Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2). OS: Windows Server 2003
Developer version (10.1.2.0.2).

Thanks.

I'm wanting to do the opposite: I want to save a version of a report developed in Reports 9i in Reports 6i. Has anyone ever done it? Do you have any idea what has to be done?


grateful,

RODCAPELLA, you will have to recompile your Reports with Dev 6i to be able to use it.
And as for another doubt, in theory should work. Have you seen environment settings?

Thanks Alrsilva.

I'll do this attempt next week when the project is approved. I hope to recompile him at 6i solves everything, because it will save me a long time. If it does not work, I think I'll have to create a new one at 6i, taking advantage of the already developed queys.

Personal,

The project was approved and I just performed the test: pick up the reports generated by Reports 9i and compile them at 6i and they worked right. This saved me a few tens of working hours, it was perfect !!!

These reports had only been generated at 9i, but they had no extra functionality in relation to those existing in 6i. Cool !!!

Hello RODCAPELLA

I am in the same migration process that you but I have a problem, when I put the Reports to the Screen or Cache font works perfectly.
I have a report that should run right into the printer ... and when I put Destype 'Printer' it generates a zipped file for download. I believe it is some configuration and I do not know where to change.

could anyone help me ??
