I want to display the live stock market value in cognos 10.1.1 report studio.  any suggestion is welcome


Cognos8

Cant we do without any JAVA script?

You could use Virtual View Manager to link to a web service to consume the live stock data (assuming you can find a provider offering access via a web service). You can then connect to VVM via its ODBC from Cognos 10.

hi,

Virtual view manager is a separate installation ?
will it  act add on in report studio reports?
do u have more details abot VVM?

VVM is a seperate installation - but is included as part of your IBM Administrator license.
It will allow you to model a web service that returns your live stock value feed.
Once modeled you can expose the data as a 'Virtual Database' that you can model via FM.

thinking in another way also.. pls help if u have an idea..
is thr a way to bring RSS feed or RSS viewer in report studio as add on or HTML?

If i take any stock market website, should i able to find some java coding to include it in cognos? some codings are there but will it be helpful ?

RSS feed is just XML data - so long as you wrap this with appropriate HTML tags / scrip then yes !.
