Set number format in report.

Hi guys,

I have a problem regarding the format of the number columns in my report.

I have a form in Oracle Applications where the user will enter some different information. When the user is done he/she clicks on the button “Generate report”. The button looks on the users input and generate a web address with the right parameter and opens a new window with the APEX report.

The parameter also contains the username, user id, etc.

Now; I want the number columns in the report to be in the format that the users have specified in their preferences (NLS_NUMBER_FORMAT).

My idea was to use the APEX_CUSTOM_AUTH.POST_LOGIN to login the user. Execute the query and then receive the right number format. Would that even work?

When I try to use the APEX_CUSTOM_AUTH.POST_LOGIN I get the “Page cannot be found” error.
Is there a better way to accomplish my goal?

Thank you in advance
Kenneth Kristoffersen
