[CLOSED] Active Reports- Limitations?
Hi
I am trying to use Active Reports component in WebFOCUS 7.1.4. Before I go ahead into report development, I just wanted to check whether any limitation exists WRT using Active Reports in WebFOCUS. for eg. is there any limit to the no. of rows/recordsets which can be displayed in if we use this feature?
Any related content/material would be of great help.

Warm Regards
Syed

I discussed this issue at Summit with some technicians and found that the number of rows in the latest version also in IE has been increased to 20K.
They showed us a lot of other interesting improvements.

Hey Frank
Just found your post as I was not accessing my inbox all this time. This is good news for people working on Active Reports component. Can you share any document/website where we can find the rest of the improvements which you mentioned in your post?

that's a bit difficult, I think your local sales rep can help you in this much better.

Hi Frank
No issues. I'll try lay my hands on some material.
1 small query- Can we avoid showing (or somehow suppress) the 1st two rows which come as default sections in the Active Reports, i.e.
File.......View
n of n records (Page 1 of 1).

Syed

I don't know, I have seen the product and played a bit with is, but these details ???

In fact you can do the same things on building the report as you can in a normal HTML report but now save it as a AHTML.
Can you suppress the first two lines in a normal HTML report? I do not think so.....

The active report will be very slow if the number of records are more than around 250.

when using active reports the used browser is important, but also your computer memory.

IE can handle much less records compared to Firefox.
