Repexpert is able to monitor the navigation portion of IE (Internet
Explorer).That means Repexpert 'knows' each URL IE want to navigate
to. Repexpert analyze the URL and determine whether the URL is link
to a file of report output. Call repexpert from oracle form step by step: |

| 1) | Use web.show_document(url, target) built-in to activate an instance of IE, The instance of IE will download a file generated by oracle report. I prefer to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(v_report_id,Pl_id) built-in to output oracle report to cache directory, then use a JSP program (example) to download the file. |
