Questions concerning BIRT & Howto... [message #129066]

Hi ..
got a few quite grave questions:
Is there any way to transfer an amount of data out of a database (Oracle)
into a report and then 'afterselect' (don't know the right word! In
German: Daten nachselektieren) other attributes/data and display them (in
the same report?.. a new report?)?

Could any appropriate developer give me a HOWTO?

Continuing:
How do one add parameters to a report if i retrieve it in the browser
(with tomcat)? And is there a maximum limit?

Got a few other probs with using BIRT, but couldn't express it in words
that well...as you can see above :-/ .

I hope you did understand my questions/requests and be able to help/answer
me... any help would be appreciated!

thx
Nicole

Nicole,

I am not sure I understand the initial question, but BIRT allows multiple
datasets in a report.

Once you add parameters to the report in the URL you specify the
parameter_name=value.
The only restriction is the length of the URL.
Take a look at
http://www.eclipse.org/birt/index.php?page=deploy/viewer-use .html

Take a look at the BIRT newsgroup, you should be able to get your questions
answered.
