IE11 - Crystal Reports - PrintMode ActiveX now displaying PDF prompt (instead of printer prompt)

I asked this question over at stackoverflow and am now taking it here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20672254/ie11-crystal-reports-printmode-activex-now-displaying-pdf-prompt-instead-of
It's a simple straight-forward question. IE11 is breaking the ActiveX plug-in used for printing from the Crystal Report Viewer. All the pretty pictures are in the link I provided. But the jist is that for my ActiveX Print Mode reports, the PDF dialog is presented now instead of the normal Printer dialog (unless I use Compatibility Mode)
Other details:
I am using the Crystal Reports that comes with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. For the life of me I can't remember how this got installed on one of my browser's (maybe an install from Visual Studio?) ... but I've been deploying the Crystal Print Control 10.5 (32-bit; version: 10.5.1.2285).
And as mentioned in the stackoverflow post I have all ActiveX settings enabled and ActiveX Filtering off.

Hi William,
Moved your post to the .NET SDK forum.
CR for VS 2008 was included in the installer of Visual Studio, you can remove it from Add/Remove Programs.
Unfortunately the CR Basic that comes with VS 2008 only had one patch released and that's it. IE 11 was not released when it came out so we could not support it.
Currently there are no versions of CR or our SDK packages that do support it.
Crystal Reports Developer for Visual Studio SP 9 will support IE 11. You can get it from the Overview Tab and then on the left side. But it requires VS 2010 or above and SP 9 will support VS 2013 and IE 11.
In VS you could select either ActiveX or PDF:
I don't have IE 11 but to change the PDF go into the Add-ins menu:
See this link for supported OS's and VS's:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/b4JiAw
Also, IE 11 is likely on Windows 2008 Server or possibly Window 8.x.
Best thing to do is upgrade VS and then download the CR installer into VS so it supports current OS's and Browsers.

How to hide the preview section in the crystal report viewer activex cntrl.

Dear All,
I am using the Crystal report viewer ActiveX to display the Crystal report. When the report opens in the Crystal report viewer ActiveX control, a preview section comes at the left hand side of the panel. How can I hide the preview section from the Report viewer control.Is it possible to customize the the report viewer control. Awaiting for your suggestions.
Thank you.
Regards,
Rahaneef

Just to get the terminology correct. I believe you are meaning the Group Tree(?).
Vb Code:
CrystalActiveXReportViewer1.DisplayGroupTree = False.
Also, do consult the developer help file;

Sure, I receive another date (01.02.2013). Just one thing is strange here - why do I receive only one extra date (I should receive ALL dates in Oracle table when I perform query without any WHERE clause).

Cannot display Crystal Report with ActiveX Viewer

I am using SmartViewerActivex.asp in a classic ASP website to display Crystal Reports and the report will not load.
I get a blank grey screen with only the toolbar showing but able to export out with data intact.
I am using CR9, running in Windows Server 2012 R2 IIS 8.5.
I've already spent about 2 weeks and have not found an answer. Please HELP!

Unfortunately, no help available. I suspect when CR 9 released in 2002, Win Server 2012 was not even a twinkle in Bill's eye. E.g.; you are looking for CR 9 to be 10+ years forward compatible. In other words, it is not supported on WIN server 2012.
Possible option is to upgrade to CR XI R2 (v. 11.5). There you have a weak prayer and hope. With luck it may work. Note that CR XI r2 was the last version of CR to include the AcitiveX viewer. And CR XI R2 has been out of support for over 2 years now.
Best bet: CR SDK for VS .NET or CR SDK for Java. This would mean a new app...

Crystal Report 9 - Can't Display UTF-8 Data

Dear Sir,
I am using PHP with Crystal Report 9.2 and has problem displaying UTF-8 data from MSSQL field. It shows weird characters instead. I am very sure the data stored in database is in UTF-8 because when I ouput it into the web browser with encoding as UTF-8, it shows correctly. Currently is using ADODB recordset to pass data into CR. I tried using ODBC to connect directly to database and preview the data - same issue.
Now I wonder whether are there any settings need to be done in CR in order to display unicode correctly? From what I read, CR 9 and above should be able to support unicode.
Thanks
AL

To be honest, I have no idea if TTX files supported UTF-8... I kinda doubt it. I'd check, but the only person I knwo of that may have a clue is not in until September 28...
Re. ODBC, see if adding the following option to your DSN entry in the odbc.ini file will help:
stmt = SET CHARACTER SET utf8
Also, if I remember right, MS SQL does not install UTF-8 support by default (at least at one time or another it did not...(?).
Oh - one more thing. I've attached a non CR app that I'd like you to use to see what the data it returns looks like. Please give that a try.

Get blank report in Crystal Report Viewer when exporting to PDF

I have an application that creates reports in the CrystalReportViewer while at the same time exports a PDF of that report. I am having a problem in which
performing the export causes the report in the ReportViewer and the PDF report to be blank. They have the header and column labels but no data. If I
comment out the Me.Export(reportExportOptions) line at the end of the exportPDFReport method the report in the ReportViewer works fine, displaying
data on the report.
I have other forms that perfrom this same type of function on different reports and work fine. In fact they use the same exportPDFReport method. This leads
me to believe that a difference in the reports may be causing the problem. But I can't figure out why.
I am using .net 3.5 with Crystal Reports 2008 (CR2008) full edition in Visual Studio 2008. Although the reports that work were probably created using
VS 2005 and the VS 2005 edition of Crystal, and which have since been updated to CR2008.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you resolve it?
Thanks for any help!

Pretty much.
Seems I had at one time hard coded a record selection statement that I forgot to remove which caused the report to be blank. That solved my problem, but there still seems to be an issue in that the Crystal Report Viewer performed differently when I tried to export to PDF (no records displayed) then when I didn't (records displayed).

Crystal Reports 8.5 Export to PDF

Hi,
I am using 8.5 SP 3, crystl32.ocx, VC++ 6.0.
Here is the sample code:
CCrystalCtrl     m_RPT;
int iFileType=0;
    m_RPT.SetDestination(2); //print directly to file
    m_RPT.SetPrintFileName("C:
SAMPLE.PDF");
    m_RPT.SetPrintFileType(iFileType);
    m_RPT.PrintReport();
iFileType is only valid from 0 to 17 where 17 is the MS WORD format.
I can't get it export to PDF file.
Edited by: Al Koh on Jan 18, 2009 8:39 AM

Hello Al,
The OCX (crystl32.ocx) is quite old, and was last updated in version 6. The OCX does not support exporting to PDF in code. You can only export from the preview window when viewing the Crystal Report.
I found a Note that was migrated from an old Crystal Kbase article. Here's the content of the Note:
+++++++++++++++++++++
Symptom
An application uses the Crystal Reports ActiveX (OCX) control (crystl32.ocx) as the reporting development tool.
Is it possible (through code) to export to Portable Document Format (PDF) when using the OCX?
Resolution
Exporting to PDF (through code) is not supported with the OCX because:
· The OCX does not contain an export constant for PDF
· The OCX has not been updated since Crystal Reports 6
· Functionality to export to PDF was not fully supported until Crystal Reports 8.5
====================
NOTE:
You can export to PDF using the export button in the OCX preview window. The OCX preview window is able to detect and use the PDF export DLL (CRXF_PDF.dll).
====================
+++++++++++++++++++++
If you need to export to PDF in code you'll need to migrate to the Report Designer Component (RDC), which was available in CR 8.5. You should note that the RDC itself has been retired with the release of CR2008 (v12). If you migrate to the RDC with CR8.5 you won't be able to update your Crystal Reports past CR XI R2 (v11.5) if you migrate to the RDC.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

Crystal Reports XI - Error when displaying report

Hi Guys,
I'm using Crystal reports XI release 2. I'm attempting to get some data from an Oracle database and display it as a Crsytal Report onto a JSP. Tomcat 5.0 is being used.
At first I was using Crystal XI and than upgraded to Release 2.
Here's the error message I'm getting when report is rendering:
"Null page: Unable to create page from report source."
And the stack trace for the error is:
Exception at EPFPageFactory.getPage: java.lang.Exception: Error in EPFImapgeObjectInstancesBase.getInstanceProperties: null epfImage
At this point I have not found any references at all on the web regarding this issue. It's been a long time now since I've been trying to use Crystal - Java and I've hot succeed to do so. I only find an article which said There's a hot fix which solves this issue, I installed it but nothing really happened, I kept getting the same error.
Please , any help will be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Esteban

even i am trying the same if u get something pls do let me know

IE8 on XP shuts down on first print of Crystal Report using ActiveX Viewer

Environment:
u2022 Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 FP 3.5
u2022 Tomcat 5.5
u2022 Windows Server 2003
u2022 JDK Version: 1.6
u2022 Internet Explorer 8 - compatibility mode
u2022 client machines Windows XP Professional SP3
Issue:
The browser shuts down after last page is queued for printing upon installing ActiveX print control for the first time in all XP SP3 environments. Issue does not occur when using Vista or Windows 7. Subsequent printing works fine after ActiveX print control has been installed once.
Steps Taken:
-"Enabled memory protection to help mitigate online attacks" option in IE and turned on DEP on OS - this is mandatory for company security policies. Issue does not occur if this option is turned off.
-Not reproducible on my end under same environment
-PDF printing works, however this is not a feasible solution
-issue does not occur for IE6 and IE7 in XP, and IE8 on Windows 7
-disabling DEP via boot.ini also removes issue
-upgrading client workstation to Windows 7 also not a viable solution
-validated version of \Business Objects\common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12 \ActiveXControls\PrintControl.dll on the BOE server as 12.3.1.684
-on client machines, added to Trusted Sites the web site of report origin. Open internet explorer >Tools>Internet Options>Security Tab>Trusted Sites Security Zone >Click Sites> Add Site by typing the web site address---> Click Add -->OK then close the internet Options dialog box.
-not applicable solution, BO XI R2 - "Blank "Crystal Reports Viewer" window - attempt to print report

Hi Seb,
It's already been validated that turning off DEP works. however, DEP is mandatory for this customer.
I did come across the release notes for IE8 at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/dd441788, indicating the following,
Turn off Data Execution Prevention group policy
The Group Policy setting, Turn off Data Execution Prevention (Windows Components | Internet Explorer | Security Features), does not currently function as expected. While the Internet Control Panel option will appear to be disabled, Data Execution Prevention is still turned on. This is a known problem and will be corrected it in a future update.

How do I make Crystal report viewer navigation icons display

Visual Studio 8 accessing Crystal Reports Server 11 r2 using development web server.
Report renders just fine in viewer but none of the viewer icons seem to find their image - all appear as X.
Debugging shows the src for icons is "this.src='/crystalreportviewers11/images/toolbar/(gif name)" such as "this.src='/crystalreportviewers11/images/toolbar/export_over.gif'". I have such a directory\file in c:\program files\common files\business objects\3.0\crystalreportviewers11\images\toolbar\export_over.gif .
perhaps related or a different problem: I get java script error when trying to print or export the rendered report: "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this action" pointing to line: print = false;crystal_postback="<input type='hidden' name='__EVENTTARGET' value='myCrystalReportViewer'><input type='hidden' name='__EVENTARGUMENT' value='export'><input type='hidden' name='__LASTFOCUS' value=''><input type='hidden' name='__VIEWSTATE' etc.
I see that java src is in the same neighborhood as the missing images: "JavaScript" src="/crystalreportviewers11/js/export.js" and using same hierarchy as above, I find this java file.
Regarding missing images, how do I make viewer see these? Where do I copy the images or how do I point the viewer to where they are?
alan

Out of the frying pan and into the fire... I offer the following for other novices like myself and hope that experts will correct any misconceptions.
My Crystal viewer control still does not display icons or print and now behaves badly when trying to display a report. I would appreciate any advice. Details follow.
We have a Crystal Reports Server XI r 2. I obtained the installation disks from tech support to install client tools on my development workstation. These disks installed version 11.0.3300 . After some research I have come to believe the following:
Crystal Reports XI r1 = 11.0 = Managed 3.0
Crystal Reports XI r2 = 11.5 = Managed 3.5
Crystal Reports 2008 = 12 = Managed 4.0
So I actually installed release one client tools. The disks I received were the only installation disks we have, but I believe the server was updated to release 2 via web. I could not find anywhere on web where I could download the release 2 client tools nor could I find any executable on server installation of release 2 to install the client tools to the development workstation.
However, I also hold a license to the full blown BOE server at XI r2 release I installed the client tools from these disks to my development workstation. This installed version 11.5.3300 . Based on other messages, I believe I need to get to 11.5.3700, but I am lost as to how to get this version. The differences in versions may be the sole cause of my remaining problems, but I doubt it.
To make sure I had no conflicts on development workstation, I removed all vestiges of Visual Studio and Crystal and then reinstalled VS2008, then Crystal designer, then Crystal Server client tools. I also installed all service packs for these. Tech Support tells me Crystal Reports Server has all service packs installed. I noticed that the release one toolset installation created needed .dll's in both a program files\business objects\common folder and a program files\common\business objects folder, but the release two installation created only the former, not the latter - don't know if that matters.
I had a Crystal viewer app at version 10.5 that worked fine for all reports except those that use the Server business view layer. I am creating a new web version that can handle all Crystal reports including those using business view layer. I am following the BOE SDK tutorial for creating a viewer. I am binding to Crystal Viewer with an infoObject cast as report per one of the tutoral ways of binding. (I wonder if I need to use a different kind of binding though the tutoral indicates this should work.)
When I was using release 1 tools with release 2 server, the report would render just fine but the navigation icons appeared as X's and the print/export buttons resulted in error of "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this action".
Per suggestions, I got everything in sync (to version 11.5.3300 which is only release two version I have available) - all references, viewer control, image handler. I did have to change the image handler type to "CrystalImageHandler.aspx" type="CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalImageHandlerPage, to get a successful build because type CrystalImageHandler (no "page" suffix) is not defined in Crystal Decisions.Web version 11.5.3300, I also had to add a reference to CrystalDecisions.Enterprise,PlugInManager for the constant CePictureState.cePictureThumbnail to be defined. This reference was not necessary with version 1 toolset and not mentioned in tutoral. Now I have the following symptoms:
1. When I bind to a very simple .rpt file stored in filing system of my workstation (displays a constant), the report will render in viewer but the navigation icons are still X's and print/export buttons still get JScript error message.
2. When I bind to this same simple report copied into Server folder using an infoObject cast as report (which used to render fine with release one client tools), I get the message: "The Page Server you are trying to connect to is not accessible. Please contact your system administrator." This same report in Server folder runs fine using my Crystal Designer client. I am able to display other attributes of the report object so I know I have a good report object. So, my upgrade to 11.5.3300 has now additionally broken the report render.
I would love to get to version 11.5.3700 and see what is still broken (I suspect there will still be some), but haven't a clue how to get this version of client tools. Upgrading server to 2008 is not an option. Downgrading Visual Studio to an earlier release is an option if VS2008 is contributing to the problem. If I have to downgrade VS, what release is recommended?
Any advice about any of these problems is welcome!

Crystal reports viewer activex and caching?

We are embedding the activex report viewer component in one of our pages. It then runs and renders a report. It would appear that it is hitting the database once to pull the full dataset, but is actually caching the dataset, and fetching a page at a time. Is this correct behavior? Can it be changed?

Hello, Henry;
In a web application all of the Crystal Reports files and data handling are on the server.
The ActiveX viewer will handle post back for the pages but all of the data is retrieved and stored on the server so preparing each new page will be handled by the server.
The behaviour is correct and cannot be changed.
A workaround would be to export to pdf on the server and redirect to the browser as one document.

Visual Studio 2013 Crystal Report V9 does not display in browser

Hello, I work with Visual Studio 2013, and was anxious for version 13.0.9.1312, glad you came. Well I installed the full version and the report usually opened in VS, but when it does not compile command displays. Published in a local and it worked, but the VS does not work, if you click with the right mouse button to display codes are the codes it, but does not show. I used IE, and nothing Chomo. How does VS2013 use IIS Express as a server. Have any solution for this?
