Language of crystal reports

Anyone know how to change the language setting of crystal reports 2008 dynamically?

Hello Ludek,
Thanks for responding to my question. I ported already existed reports from CR 10 RDC to CR 2008 using .NET assembly for our client in the Netherlands. The client reported that the tooltips of the button and dialog boxes and even database fields of boolean ty are showing in Dutch, not in English. But in development machine it is showing in English. They needed it in English. My questions are:
1. How this is happened. Is this because Dutch is selected when they installed the CR. Is CR is dependent on regional settings of the machine.
2. Is it possible to change language dynamically to english. if yes how.
i would be grateful to you if this issue is resolved.

    V361:If you are not on product version 11.5.8.963 (help, about CR) you will need to download the latest hotfix, or R2 upgrade.  When you run that, it will prompt you for language as part of the process. I've installed R2 (upgrade). And when installing I selected the Englisch language. But this is de language the setup is in, this is NOT the language of Crystal Reports when it is installed completely.The language of my installation is still Dutch. My product version is now: 11.5.8.826

  • Change GUI Language in Crystal Reports XI

    How can I change the GUI language of a installed Crystal Reports XI? At the installation, I have choosen "English" but now the GUI is in German.
    As I found out, the GUI language depends on the regional settings in Windows. I have "Switzerland" as the default settings, so it seems the Crystal Reports sets the language to German. Is there a registry key or something else to change the language manually?

    Hi Stephan,
    When you install CR XI it should have the option to select all languages, I don't recall exact steps now, I don't have it installed any more.
    Try doing a Repair install in add/remove programs and select Custom to choose all the languages. It should then select your default local.
    CR 2008 now gives you the option in the Designer itself to set this option.
    You can also upgrade to CR XI R2 for free, use your XI Keycode to install it and be sure to select the languages you want to support.

    I opened  a support case at business objects. From what i have been told, this may have something to do with the localization settings. So most probably this has nothing to do with IE settings.
    I am going to keep you on track as soon as I have more information.

  • Crystal Reports XI: multi-language option

    I need to display in multiple languages reports .rpt  desing in Crystal Report XI,  that are called from a web application (Visual Studio 2008, c#).
    I need to translate all label to the report .How can  i do it ?
    in another forums,  I found that the solution is  create formulas  in Crystal (one per label), and assign its value (translation) from the web application (by language), but , Is there any option to generate language resources in Crystal?
    Thanks...

  • Crystal Reports in other languages ...

    Hi
    I'm new to crystal reporting my question is can crystal reports (v10 to be specific) present data in other languages like for example Arabic even though your data source is English language? More like translate this data to that language, Is it just a matter of choosing the font when designing or its more complicated than that?
    Thanks

    New since CR 9 is unicode support: http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/KanisaSupportSite/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=http--supportbusinessobjectscom-communityCS-TechnicalPapersNoNav-cr9whatsnewpdfasp&sliceId=&dialogID=24286720&stateId=1 0 24288668
    "Unicode support means that the program code level in Crystal Reports is able to recognize language
    characters that are based on Unicode.
    Unicode is used to display double-byte characters such as the Chinese and Japanese character sets.
    This enables you to create Crystal Reports that can display right-to-left languages and multiple
    languages in a single report."
    So if your data is in unicode Crystal will be able to properly display the various languages.
    If you wanted one single report to be viewed in different languages, then static strings in the report would need to be converted into formula fields which changes the text into the appropriate language based on a language parameter.  Some strings could not be handled in this manner though such as custom prompting strings.

  • Switching the language of the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" plugin

    Good day everyone,
    I would like to ask about configuring the language of the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" plugin:
    - I have "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" version: 2.0.7.r1040
    - I have installed the language packs 1 and 2
    - Currently, the Crystal Reports perspective and the associated views are displayed in German.
    - I would like to switch these views back to English.
    Questions:
    1. How can I switch the language?
    2. Will this switching of the language have any known side effect on the existing reports, because some of the reports in my current project are displayed in German?
    Thank you in advance for your support.
    Best regards,
    Samar

    Hello everyone,
    I have found a solution for this question that I would like to share with you.
    - Browse the Control Panel
    - Open the Regional and Language Options
    - In the Regional Options tab under the Standards and formats group, select the Locale that you prefer.
    - *Restart Eclipse* and the Crystal Reports plugin would read the changed setting and display the Crystal Reports perspectives and views in the language of the selected Locale.
    Best regards,
    Samar

  • Japanese language pack for Crystal Report 2008 SP1

    Japanese language pack has already been included in Crystal Reports 2008 SP1. You don't need to apply Japanese language pack individually.

  • Crystal Report Portuguese language support

    Hi I am using Crystal Reports 10 with IIS Server. I wish to display some of the reports in Portuguese language. How can I configure Crystal Reports to display data in Portuguese ? I guess I will need to download a language pack for this but will it allow word-by-word conversion from English to Portuguese ? Grammatically correct sentences are not currently my concern. Any inputs will be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    Need more info. Crystal reports by itself does not use IIS. Are you using CR Enterprise 10 or did you develop an application using CR 10 runtime?
    I don't believe CR or CE 10 supported or had a language pack for Portuguese. CR 2008 and BOE 3.1 now does though.
    Also, CR/CE 10 had all of the language packs included so it you don't see it it wasn't something you could download.
    Thank you
    Don

  • Crystal Report Viewer language

    Hi,
    I have a Crystal Report Viewer inside an ASP.Net web page. I need the user interface to show using Portuguese language, but it keeps showing in English (default).
    The closer I got was to set "UseBrowserLocale" variable to "true" on web.config. But it's not sufficient, because it depends on client configuration. I also set the page's culture to "pt-BR", but it didn't work at all.
    Is there any way to force the viewer control to always load Portuguese resources?
    Thanks.

    Download the [SAP Crystal reports .NET SDK Developer Guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sapCRVS2010/en/crnet_dg_2010_en.zip] and search for "localization". I believe the info there will point you in the right direction.

    Let me explain you again, I have crystal report, where I have 4 tables linked. I have one table called SKAT table and I I have SPRAS field in that table which is language key, It will show you all the langauges available in that table.
    SAP side, when I enter SPRAS as EN and excute, I see only english records for all G/L description. When I enter German in SPRAS fiels, it will show German G/L Account Description.
    But In Crystal Report, I have created parameter for this SPRAS field, User will select which language they want to select.
    Now the problem is when I create the Paramter on SPRAS field and I run the report, In the Parameter selection, I see D, C and 1 but I don't see EN.
