Looks like a Fillout box for a Form. If that is what it is, click on Edit form under Forms menu. Click on the box while holding down control key choose Properties when Properties box open look for Justification for side to side and top to bottom should be under Text Tab.

Number field on crystal report displays Exponential form.

Number Type field on crystal report printed in Exponential form when digits in this field are more than 17.

Hi Jay,
The same issue is addressed in the K-Base article c2005336. This is the limitation in Crystal, If you have more than 15 digits of numberic field it will convert into Exponential
Use database-level syntax to convert the numeric database field to a string so that Crystal Reports will interpret it as a string type, and display all of the characters.
For example, in Oracle, cast the number using to_char() and in Microsoft SQL Server use CAST() or STR() prior to adding the field to the report.
As a workaround to display all the number, I would suggest you to convert it to text using a SQL Expression Field. A SQL Expression field will be evaluated on the database server.
I would suggest you to follow the below mentioned steps to create SQL Expression field and convert a database field to a string:
1. Open the report.
2. Right click the SQL Expression field which is present in the Field Explorer.
3. Select New and copy and past the below-mentioned text.
CAST ("Database Field" as varchar)
Note u201CDatabase Fieldu201D Here you have to mention your database field.
After you create the SQL Expression Field, insert it on the report and it will display the full number.
Please note that no calculation can be made on that field since it is now a string.
I hope this helps you.

Prashant

How to add new text field in standard report

how to add new text field in standard report?

Hi,
I presume you are talking about a report display in ALV and u wish to add a column to it .
If it is a global requirement ,as in table being used there in ALV can be modified, then you can append the table and the system should pick up the same automatically from there.
Otherwise , you can make a Z program . Modify the catalog being used in ALV.

Problem dislaying an Informix LVARCHAR field in Crystal Reports

Post Author: littlew
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I am creating a report using Crystal Reports XI from a BOXI Universe. The Universe is connecting to an Informix Dynamic Server 9.21 database. The Informix database contains a field which is a LVARCHAR data type. A LVARCHAR data type is one which allows the storing of more than 255 characters (up to 2KB).
When I attempt to place the LVARCHAR data type field onto my report, Crystal Reports displays no data in my report for most of the other fields, and all the formulas return invalid results. If I go into the Informix database and change the LVARCHAR field to CHAR (255) field, the Crystal Report will run with no problems.
Does anyone know if Crystal Reports can support the displaying of fields from the database, which are greater than 255 characters?
Also, I have created a Crystal Report which uses the same Informix data source using an ODBC connection and the LVARCHAR field caused the entire report not to display. By changing the field from LVARCHAR to CHAR (255) the report runs fine.

I don't remember where I read it, but the field limit is 255 characters. Unless that has changed in CR 2008

Is it possible to have editable text field in interactive report?

Is it possible to have editable text field in interactive report?
Thanks,

Hi,
I followed your suggestion and defined an IR with apex_item.text columns and it works fine. Now however I face a new problem when I run the page and use the standard Search Bar:
- Click on Actions/Filter
- Select a column, for example the employee name.
- Open the Expression field LOV: I correctly see the different names.
- When I select one of the names, in the Expression field, instead of the name, I see:
"<input type="text" name="f03" size="20" maxlength="2000" value="Eugene" />"
Horrible!!!!!!
Is there a way to see the name and not that expression? The same thing get downloaded, so it´s really annoying.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!!!

ADobe Reader error while opening CRYSTAL REPORT

i HAVE INVOKED A CRYSTAL REPORT USING A JSP , AND COULD EVEN EXPORT THAT TO A PDF FILE ,but when i try to open that particular file using the adobe reader am getting the error given below.
Acrobat could not open MyReport[1].pdf.pdf because it is either not a

Can anyone tell why this is happening ??

Adobe acrobat text feild value changing when placing a cursor

Hi,
I am using adobe acrobat 9 for printing some letters.
I have a pdf document in that there are bundle of letters. In all letter there are some common text fields are existing.
Here issue is, the content of first letter values are appearing in all remaining letters common fields when i am placing cursor over the field.
While i am printing also the first letter are appearing in all letters.
But when i use adobe 5 the issue is not occurring.
Please help me, to get rid of this issue.
Thanks in advance.

I have pdf document, which consists of multiple letters. All letters have common content but the date field, name of client, address and control number are differ for individual letter.
Issue is, while i am looking at the letter everything is fine, i mean data is distinct for each letter. The i printed the pdf doc but all letters have same date field, name of client, address and control number which are as of first letter.
And when i click on text field the content of field is changing and showing same as first letter. When i remove cursor its again distinct.
For example in first letter date field is 15th feb 2015. In second letter its showing 16th feb 2015. But when i place cursor over the field its changing to 15th feb 2015. while i remove the cursor its showing 16th feb 2015. i printed the letter and its showing 15th feb 2015 in both letters.
Here the issue is not with the batch program which is placing the data to the doc. As this issue is coming while using Adobe Acrobat 5 to generate the pdf doc.
I am suspecting some properties change is causing this issue. i try to change one property of text field like back ground color, then the text field value is not changing and if i print also the value is not changing.
I cant share the pdf document as it has some confidential information.
please suggest me to resolve this issue.

Localization of text objects in Crystal Report RPT file

Dear all,
Does anyone know how support multiple locale text (English and French) in one single Crystal Report RPT file. Is there a way to parameterize text objects (including tiles, axis, of chart) in the Crystal Report RPT files to use some sort of locale resource file containing text string for different languages based on the users of RPT at runtime? The idea is to use one single RPT file to generate report for different locale text instead of creating RPT file per locale. For example, inserting a text object in RPT file and it has text "Welcome" in English and use the same RPT file and parameterize that text object's text with a resource file and the text of that object will retrieve the proper localized text from that resource file at runtime based on the user's locale setting.

Easiest way is to place duplicate copies of charts in split sections.
If you have a chart in a group footer, split into two sections place English chart in one and french in the other.
In section expert suppress section based on language field in database. You can do same with Text box or you can over lay two text boxes one in english one in French and then format text box to suppress depending on language. Looks really messy in designer but will be fine in Preview.

How to set formula field in crystal report

Hello all,
I develope the code in C#.NET and use SAP B1 2004C. I have a problem with crystal report. I have in crystal report one unbound field. This field is string type. I need in my code change value of this field to another text ex. ("test").
I use this code:
FormulaFieldDefinitions crFormula;
            FormulaFieldDefinition crFormulafieldD1;
            crFormula = crReportDocument.DataDefinition.FormulaFields;
            //FormulaFieldDefinition test;
            //bool test = crFormula.IsReadOnly;
            string error = "";
            bool isCorrect = true;
            crFormulafieldD1 = crFormula[1];
            string ahoj = crFormulafieldD1.FormulaName;
            crFormulafieldD1.Text = " ""+OP.ToString()+"" ";
            isCorrect = crFormulafieldD1.Check(ref error);
            // Display the error message if the syntax is incorrect.
            //if (!isCorrect) MessageBox.Show(error);
The value of the field is set, but on the report isnt it. Why not. Can you help me. Send some sample.
Thanks

Hi
I've never tried to change a field of the report directly. Maybe it would solve the problem if you make a parameter field, which you can use in the formula.
You can set then the parameter field:               report.SetParameterValue("NameOfParam", valueOfParam);

How to group by more than one fields in crystal reports

Hi
How to create groups in crystal reports by more than one fields, like
select fields,aggregate functions from table group by a,b,c

Not sure if I understand your question, but you you could create a formula to generate the string of data you want to group on. Then simply create a group based on the formula field.
For example, your formula could do something like (assuming all String fields):
{table1.FirstName} + {table1.LastName} + {table1.DateOfBirth}
, and then group on this formula.
