Hi,
When I give PCHOLD my PDF file format, it calls WFSERVLET (say http://172.25.35.181/ibi_apps/...PG_File=cutnupki.pdf
)?
How does WFServlet call occur internally and from where do we pass value for PG_File?
Can someone explain this functionality?
Will WFservlet be called for PPT format also?

Thanks,
Suji.

Suji, are you just trying to display a previously generated and saved PDF? If yes, the URL should look something like this:
http://webserver/approot/dirname/pdffile.pdf

Ginny,
I want to know how WFServlet works and how different reportformat files(.pdf,.ppt,.xht) are picked up by WFservlet?

Thanks,
Suji.

Why?

How the servlet works? You'd better be calling IBI for that piece of info. You probably need to ask a more specific question, as dhagen says, to let us know exactly what you're looking for. The URL you posted is simply the redirect for a generated PDF report. It will not cause a fex to be executed. When redirection is used (as specified in the client configuration) the file is generated and stored on the webserver and then a browser is sent to that location. You can turn redirection on or off for each specific type of output file. I believe that that default is on for all types.

If you're wanting to point to an existing saved report, follow Ginny's direction. If you're wanting to know how to form a URL to execute a fex, try creating a simple report and publish it. Then you can see the layout of the call. There are also numerous posts on the topic.
