    1. Introduction
    Oracle SQL Developer provides a set of reports that you can run, and also the ability to create
    your own specific records. In this How-To we only look at a few reports, to introduce you to
    what is available.

    2. Software Requirements

    Oracle SQL Developer

    Oracle Database 9.2.0.1 or later

    Access to the Sample User Account HR (See Step 2 of this Getting Started:
    Oracle SQL Developer Guide)

    3. Using Available Reports


    SQL Developer offers a number of reports with the product. In this section you'll look at how
    to run these reports.

    1 Switch to the Reports tab in SQL Developer and expand the


    . Data Dictionary Reports node.

    2 You can learn basic details about your database by selecting the
    . About your Database node and expanding that.

    Click Version Banner and you will be prompted with a Select


    Connection dialog, select a connection from the drop list.
    3 To complete this exercise, you can select any report and run it.
    . As an example, there is a report which lists all the primary keys
    for the tables in your schema.

    Expand the Table -> Constraints node and select Primary


    Key Constraints
    4 On selecting the node, a window pops up. This window allows
    . you to restrict the query to a certain criteria. In this case you can
    only restrict the query on Table Name. By immediately clicking
    Apply, you select all records.

    To restrict your report, type e into the field for Table Name.

    Click Apply.
    5 The resulting report shows all the tables, for the schema HR,
    . that have Primary Keys.
    4. Adding User Defined Reports
    SQL Developer offers the ability to create, save and run your own reports. You just need the
    SQL! Your reports can be simple or complex. In this exercise, you start with a very basic
    report.

    1 Collapse the Data Dictionary Reports node and use the context
    . menu to add a new report.
    2 You can add any query here. As an example use the following
    . query:

    select object_name, object_type


    from user_objects;

    You can give the report a name and a description. An example is


    provided:
    Click Apply to create the report.

    3 Select the newly created report. SQL Developer prompts you


    . for a connection to the database. You can use HR, as you been
    throughout the exercise, or pick another connection, if you have
    one.

    Click OK.
    Notice that you can identify which connection you used, when
    you ran the report.

    4 Finally, you can take the query and use it in the SQL Worksheet
    . by clicking the Run Report in SQL Worksheet button.
    5. Additional Resources
