Can you integrate Crystal Reports dynamic charts onto DW?

Is there a way that I can drag/drop or integrate dynamic/live
charts that were built in Crystal Reports into Dreamweaver? I am
designing the company website and would like to use Crystal to
create our live graphs/charts and then integrate these charts into
DW so people can see them on the site. These charts will be live
and constantly updating so I'm not sure if this is possible...
Has anyone tried this?
Thanks!

I haven't tried this. But wondering why you're not using
Microsoft product such as Visual Studio or Visual Web Developer
(free from web too from MS) to try this.
I know Dreamweaver can't do ASP.NET 2.0 and above. So if
you're going to be doing anything with C# or VB.NET I would look at
Microsoft instead of DW.
I know Crystal Reports work well with Visual Studio

Can you use Crystal Reports on a webpage without having to use session?

In all of the examples I have seen it shows using the session to store the reportdocument object between postbacks. That means that clicking the page buttons fires a postback. Other reporting tools such as PDF, ActiveReports, and others do not have to do this. Is this a limitation of Crystal and a COM backend or is it just a common sample and not the only option?
How do you get paging to work without having to use session and do postbacks? AJAX, Javascript, converting to a PDF, etc. would all be possible ways to not require a postback.
My problem is that I am using SQL Server to store the session and the reportdocument object is not serializeable. I have been told I can buy Crystal Report Server for $5000 and this will work. But in reality I can buy other reporting tool for $500 or convert them to SQL Reporting and it will work as well. So I am trying to be reasonable and figure out what I need to do. That seems like a bit much to need a whole server application to serve the reports just to turn on paging for a couple of simple reports. I'm hoping there is a way to not use session to get paging to work.
I have consider pushing the report into viewstate and not session. But I would rather not push it into either. Is this a valid option?
What is the typical way to handle this sort of thing? Do you really have to push it into session to get the CrystalReportViewer control to page on an ASPX page. What other options are there?
Any suggestions, thoughts, or ideas would be very much appreciated. This is causing enough of a problem where the company is asking me to look at alternatives if we cannot solve this.
Best regards,
Jon

Acrobat doesnu2019t cause postbacks when paging because the acrobat reader installed locally, so its viewing is in a client-side control. I imagine the same thing is the case for ActiveReports (some sort of client-side activex control installed).
If the winform viewer was used on in your web page, then you wouldnu2019t get postbacks either, but then you'd need Crystal Reports runtime on the client to view in that control. And placing a winviewer in a web page give me shivers...
So, to avoid using session, recreate the reportdocument and re-load the report on postbacks.
As Surabh mentioned, you can serialize the report but you will have to use teh InProc RAS. There is an issue thought; you start to get load errors and otehr errors after viewing 3 reports. I belive this has been reported to R&D for a fix comment, but I do not have and ETA at this time. The code for the InProc RAS SDK would be as follows:
 If Not IsPostBack Then
 Dim rpt As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
 Dim boReportClientDocument As CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ClientDoc.ISCDReportClientDocument
 ' rpt.ReportAppServer = "Inproc:multithreaded"
 rpt.Load("c:inetpubwwwroot estSerializeInprocRASEmployee Profile.rpt",
 OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy)
 boReportClientDocument = rpt.ReportClientDocument
 Dim x As String = boReportClientDocument.DataDefController.Database.Tables(0).Name
 ' boReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.logon("sa", "admin")
 Dim convertUtil As New CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Utilities.Conversion()
 Dim serializedDoc As String
 serializedDoc = convertUtil.ToString(rpt.ReportClientDocument)
 Session.Add("SerializedDoc", serializedDoc)
 'ViewState.Add("SerializedDoc", serializedDoc)
 Response.Write("The document has been serialized.")
 CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = boReportClientDocument.ReportSource
 Else
 Label1.Visible = False
 Button1.Visible = False
 Dim x As String
 x = ViewState("SerializedDoc").ToString()
 Dim deSerializedDoc As ISCDReportClientDocument
 Dim convertUtil As New Conversion
 deSerializedDoc = convertUtil.ToReportClientDocument(Session("SerializedDoc").ToString())
 'deSerializedDoc = convertUtil.ToReportClientDocument(ViewState("SerializedDoc").ToString())
 CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = deSerializedDoc
 Response.Write("You are viewing a de-Serialized report" & " ")
 Response.Write(ViewState("SerializedDoc").ToString())
 End If

Can you use Crystal Reports for Enterprise to connect to BOE4 over the web?

Hello,
When I use Crystal Reports for Enterprise in BI Launchpad when I am connected on the LAN network it works.
If I connect via the internet, it doesn't.
I wanted to know if Crystal Reports for Enterprise only works if you are connected to Business Enterprise 4.0 on a LAN network and if it's not designed to work remotely, aka via the internet connection, like you can with Webi?
regards
Janetta

Hello,
We installed BOE4 on the server, it runs perfectly, no issues.
Install Crystal Reports for Enterprise on a laptop. It's the latest one as I checked to see if there's any later versions or patches.
I am able to log into the BOE Enterprise system as administrator.
Namely I have setup the Server connections per the following:
Server Name: <IP address>
The check box for SSL is unchecked.
Server Port Number: nnnn
Server Context: /dswsbobje
System display name: <my server> External Connection
User Name : Administrator
It connects successfully.
I then go and create a report against a Universe that I can see listed on my BOE 4 server.
It then comes up with this error message:
"Unable to Logon: There is a problem logging on to SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise.
Please check your logon credentials and make sure your nework is properly configured before trying again.
If problems persist please contact your Administrator."
Architecture:
BOE 4 sits on Windows 2008 Server SP2
Laptops tried it on are Windows Vista and Windows 2003 Std.
Thanks for looking into this for me.

Integrate Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and VS2005 IDE

Hi,How can i integrate Crystal Reports XI R2 is directly into the Visual Studio 2005 development environments. So i can host my report in either a Web or Windows application with one of the Crystal Reports viewer controls, or use the extensive API to interact with the report programmatically at runtime. My current setup is:<blockquote>Crystal Reports XI Release 2.</blockquote><blockquote>Visual Studio 2005 Professional (I did not install the Crystal Reports .Net shipped with VS 2005.)SQ Server 2000. </blockquote>Thanks Please help.

You'll need to install the Crystal .NET that comes with VS 2005.Â You then install Crystal XI R2 over the top and not only will Crystal be integrated with the IDE, it should use the updated assemblies from R2.

I need to create a dashboard. How do you bring Crystal Reports into Excel?

Hello,
I need to create a dashboard. My boss wants a spreadsheet to show multiple reports and charts about the business. I know you can insert multiple charts in Excel. However, I need to be able to insert a report next to one of the charts.
I am thinking of using the RDC and bring in a Crystal Report. The problem is that I see with Crystal Reports 2008, you can't use RDC.
Is there an upgrade to RDC? How do I bring the Crystal Report into Excel next to the imbeddged charts. I know I can export a Crystal Report to Excel. But that Exports to a entire spreadsheet. I just want to embed a Crystal Report into Excel. The last time I did a project like this, I used to use the RDC with the same code as in VB6. Worked great.
How do you embed a Crystal Reports now?
Thanks.

The question was how do you do it?
I don't have .NET. However, if that is the only way, then I can buy .NET.
I just need someone that knows how to do it to point me in the right direction. To embed something in Excel, I hadn't thought of using .NET.

Creating Crystal Reports Dynamically from an incoming SQL query

Hi,
I have a requirement where a sql query will be entered by the user in a text box and in the back end java code, i have to create a crystal report dynamically based on that sql query and show it in the crystalviewer object.
For example if the user writes "select x,y from xtable ", i should be able to create a report with 2 fields, and if the user says "select x,y,z from xtable" then i should be able create and show a report with 3 fileds...thsi report creation should be done in the click event.
Is this possible in java? I have found something similar in .NET... pls have a look at this

Why we need ABAP if we can connect With Crystal Reports to SAP R/3

Hi,
I am new to Crystal reports.I came to know that we can connect SAP R/3 by using SAP InfoSet,SAP Table Cluster and Function connectivity in Crystal Reports.So we can generate reports for SAP R/3 database with out need of ABAP.So why we need to go ABAP module.Is there any disadvantages if we dont use ABAP to generate reports or we can use always Crystal Reports to generate Reports for R/3 database?

Hi,
it is correct that you can built a Crystal Report without the need to use ABAP, but we have lots of customers that have invested over the years into ABAP Routines and Crystal REports is able to leverage those as well. So with Crystal Reports you have the choice to leverage existing ABAP Functions as a source for reporting - which might help to leverage complex processing on the backend - or to use InfoSets and tables.

Can we integrate a report designed in CR2008 into VS2010?

Hello,
1. Can we integrate a report designed in CR2008 into VS2010 ?
2. Our client has obtained license only for CR2008 (bought a single case) and we too develop/design .rpt file in CR2008 , So is it enough to install only CR2008 run time in the client machine to launch the Report in VS2010 application (.Net 4.0) or do we need to install SAP Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 run time in client machine to launch the report?
Thanks & Regards,
Mani G.S.

Hi Mani,
1. No. CR 2008 is not compatible / tested/ supported with VS 2010.
Only CR for VS 2010 is supported and meant to work with VS 2010.

Integrate Crystal Reports 2008 in Lotus Notes 8.x

We allready use Crystal Reports 2008 with Lotus Notes 8.x trough NotesSQL 8.5. This works fine.
Now we want integrate Crystal Reports 2008 directly in Lotus Notes 8.x. so that the user can start reports directly from his Lotus Notes Application. Of course, data has to be retrieved in realtime (not with data stored in the report) and he should be able to pass parameters from a lotus notes form.
All informations we found are quit old (Crystal Reports 8.5 and Lotus Notes R5). Does anyone has an idea how to start and where to find new documentations? Is there maybe even a sample application availabl?
Any help is welcome!

I can't find Crystal report on SAP 8.8 menu bar ?

I am trying SAP 8.8 demo. Where is Crystal report on SAP 8.8 ? I can't find Crystal report on SAP 8.8 menu bar ? anybody told me location of crystal report on menu bar ?

Hi,
There is no option anywhere in SBO8.8 as "Crystal report" if you want to use it go to windows start ->program files->SAP Business One you can see there Crystal Report 2008 menu. Once you designed your report in Crystal then you can import it in SBO 8.8 through "Report and Layout Manager" in Administration -> Setup -> General. You can not open Crystal directly from SBO.
Thanks

Can you open a report in Excel/Word desktop instead of the web pugin?

using run_report_object( and web.show_document,
how or can you get a report to open in the desktop/full version of MS Excel/Word instead of the web plugin versions?
I can get the browser to open a report in pdf with my desktop adobe reader, but not with an rtf or xml/delimited desformat.

What you could try is downloading the report to the client pc using WEBUTIL_FILETRANSFER.URL_TO_CLIENT, then open the locally save file using something like:
CLIENT_HOST('cmd /c rundll32.exe url.dll,FileProtocolHandler "localfilename"');

Can you integrate Crystal Reports dynamic charts onto DW?
