[SOLVED] How to call a fex in the Content area with a URL
I'm running the sample html from page 156 of Developing Reporting Applications 8006.pdf. It's called csales.htm in the Calling the Servlet From a Hyperlink section. Using this example I can run a report from the Application area of Developer Studio, but I can't figure out how to run a report that is saved in the Content area. When I try I get an error message that says "(FOC227) THE FOCEXEC PROCEDURE CANNOT BE FOUND: procedurename".

Thanks for your help,

Hi,
Hopefully this is what you need. For example in WF8+ you create URL file in the Content area and paste following as the "URL"
 views.bip?BIP_REQUEST_TYPE=BIP_RUN&BIP_folder=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/<PATH to the folder>&BIP_item=<fexname>.fex 


It does not have to be .fex file - it can be HTML aswell.


Release: WebFOCUS 8104, AppStudio: 8105
OS: Windows
Output: HTML,Excel,Active Reports
