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.

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

How to limit row number per group without change new page in crystal report

Hi All Expert,
Is there any way to limit row number per group without change new page in crystal report 2008. The reason i do that is due to customer using printer EPSON LQ 300 (dot matrix) always will print in landscape if detech my layout in landscape. Because they need the record always print in 1 page (Letter size) for 2 groups and each group must show 5 records. Example:
But, in CR2008, if you set the row per group from group section expert, definitely it will change to new page, but I do not want it change to new page. Any Idea?
In one page (Letter size):
Group Name: Customer-ABC
NO INVOICE AMOUNT
1)   INV001     USD100
2)   INV002     USD100
3)   INV003     USD100
4)   INV004     USD100
5)   INV005     USD100
Group Name: Customer-ABC
NO INVOICE AMOUNT
6)   INV006     USD100
7)   INV007     USD100
8)   INV008     USD100
9)   INV009     USD100
10) INV010     USD100

Hi Angie.....
I guess it is not possible.
Because if you have one common group for all the 10 records then in one page it will show 10 records under one group.
I mean i think it is not possible but m not completely sure......
Lets wait for expert advise....
Regards,
Rahul

Query changes not visible in Crystal Reports

Hello
I'm building a report on top a BI query. To solve some design problems I had to change my query in Query Designer. But I can't see those changes in Crystal Reports. The fields are the same as before, even when I click on 'Regenerate' in the context menue in Field Explorer.
Do I really have to build a complete new report to see these changes in Crystal Reports?
- Crystal Reports 2008, V1
- SAP Integration Kit 3.1
- Query designed Business Explorer 3.5 and 7.0 (effect appears with both versions)
- SAP GUI 710, Patch 11
Thank you for you help!
phil

After some more digging in this forum I found a solution to my problem in a totally different thread. It apparently needs two clicks:
1. Menue Report -> Verify Database
2. Menue Report -> Regenerate Data (freely translated from german CR)

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.

Can't change gui language

How can I change the gui language to german?
I can use the german gui in my sql developer version 1.5. If I update the version 1.5 to 1.5.1 through the "Check for Updates" button, the gui is still displayed in german language.
If I download the sql developer 1.5.1, extract the program and execute the sqldeveloper.exe file, the gui is displayed in English.
In both cases it's the java included version, on Win XP SP2 (german version).

Unfortunately I haven't full list of all neccessary users. I've tried to create <sid>adm user and SAP_LocalAdmin SAP_<sid>_GlobalAdmin, SAP_<sid>_LocalAdmin groups, but nothing happens.
Have anybody positive experience in installing of developer workplace to location different from english?

Problem Change SAP Query in Crystal Reports

Hi,
i have a problem with changing a SAP Query in an Crystal Reports.
I build a Report with a Query(1) and Design the Report complet everything works fine.
I make a new Query(2) and if i make a new Crystal Report with this new Query everything works fine.
Now my problem is i would like to use the design of the first report. Therefore i open the first report and save it under a new name. Delete all Database fields and delete the database connection.
Now i gave in the new database connection to the new query(2) and in the Database fields i see a lot of Fields but not the right ones. Its completly wrong. Is there anybody how know this problem?????

Hi i solved my problem by myself.
I have to set Query as external available and have to use the MDX Query.
Its strange because if i build a new report the query dont have to be set as external available.

How to change the database in Crystal reports

To give an overview there is one project going on where the oracle database is getting migrated from 10g to 11g.
All the details of database like IP, port etc are changing as part of this.
I can see the driver name configured as crdb_ado (Custom driver).
We have an test environment for 11g against which we have to point all the reports and test it.
Could you please let me know the below queries
Where and how to change the IP details in the crystal reports to point to new test and prod databases.
Overview on this crdb_ado driver
Basically the database is getting changed and we want the reports to point and run from the new database.
Thanks

Hi Vissu,
Thanks for your reply.
We need to change the database from the reports which are already running from central management console.
I can see a custom driver crdb_ado is being used and it connects to a database.
Could you please let me know where the database configuration is done.
Ideally we need to add one more database to a config file which i am not able to find.
I guess it should be similar to tnsnames.ora file in oracle where the different databases are stored.
From the above image I would like to know where the server details (NECTAR_Prod) would be configured.
Thanks in advance

About the connection destination change of Salesforce of Crystal Report

Hi
There are three kinds of Salesforce about Developer Edition, sandbox environment, and deploy environment(operation environment).
In an in-house data base (SQLServer and Oracle), when it changes the database connectivility ahead, "connection string" is changed.
However, how should be changed the connection destination in the Salesforce driver of Crystal Report?
I can't found connection properties on Crystal Report for salesforce driver.
Thank you.

EA3: Change GUI language

Is it possible to change the GUI language? I am running a Windows with german language settings, but i want an english gui for sql developer.

That is weird, I have the same ORA-12705 error
message but I didn't change my GUI language, I had it
from the start.I think it's more a driver issue than a SQL Developer issue. I have seen this with other applications as well that change user.language to something different than the OS "Locale" (not that I'm using an english Windows XP, but the locale is set to Germany)
Btw: this was not at all necessary with SQL Developer 1.2
You can check which one of the NLS settings is giving
you a hard time by right-clicking in the logging page
- log screen and choosing "Fine" in the change log
level submenu, it will log the "ALTER SESSION"
requests it's trying to execute, and you will know
which one actually fails. Then you can input your own
SR... :)With logging page I assume you mean "View -> Log", right?
The only context menu I get in that panel are the the usual text selection items. Select, Select Al, Clear, Copy. Nothing to select the log level
But it's empty anyway and as the connection cannot be established at all, nothing is written to the log page at all. Enabling "Write log to file" doesn't write anything either.

How to programmically change all fonts in Crystal Reports using VS2005

CA Forum: .NET
I want to change all fonts in my rpt files from Arial to Tahoma. I have:
ReportDocument report;
raport.Load(fInfos[i].FullName);
if (report.IsLoaded) ChangeFont(report, path);
... private void ChangeFont(ReportDocument oReport, string path) { foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section crSection in oReport.ReportDefinition.Sections) { foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportObject crObject in crSection.ReportObjects) { FontStyle fStyle = FontStyle.Regular; if (crObject.Kind == ReportObjectKind.TextObject) { CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.TextObject text = (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.TextObject)crObject; if(text!=null) { if (text.Font.Bold) fStyle = fStyle | FontStyle.Bold; if (text.Font.Italic) fStyle = fStyle | FontStyle.Italic; if (text.Font.Underline) fStyle = fStyle | FontStyle.Underline; if (text.Font.Strikeout) fStyle = fStyle | FontStyle.Strikeout; text.ApplyFont(new Font("Tahoma", text.Font.Size,fStyle)); } } else if (crObject.Kind == ReportObjectKind.FieldObject) { ... the same } else if (crObject.Kind == ReportObjectKind.FieldHeadingObject) { ... the same } else if (crObject.Kind == ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject) { CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.SubreportObject crSubReport = (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.SubreportObject)crObject; ReportDocument crSubDoc = crSubReport.OpenSubreport(crSubReport.SubreportName); ChangeFont(crSubDoc,path); } } } if (!oReport.IsSubreport) oReport.SaveAs(path); }
This works fine but when TextObject has Embedded Fields those Fields aren't change and still have Arial font.My question is: how to change font in whole rpt file, including Embedded Fields?? RegardsKonRi

Is there any update on this ? I am facing the same problem.

Error ora-24338 happened when change data source on crystal report

Hi Guys:
I made a report on my test envariment (this report involve stored procedure and it return a ref cursor from oracle database to the report). after i test it, i decided to move this report to the production database. However when i updated the database location, it shows me the following error:
database connector error: 'ORA-24338': statement handle not executed [database wender code: 24338]
then it shows:
some tables could not be replaced, as no match was found in the new data source. please spacify the table required for any unmodified tables.
then it shows:
database connection error
all the tables and code in test database and production database are same.
anyone can help me?
thanks
Howard

after you went to database
set datasource location
updated it.
did a mapping box come up
did you then verify the database to pull in the new records or tables?
i would run the query on the server to see if it returns values.
you may also need to set your overqualified table name
database
set datasource
locate the table or sp in the top box
the + next to the sp or table
click
open properities +
overqualified table name F2
enter the table or sp in there
then verify your database and try to run against the prod server

Set GUI Language to English

Post Author: Ottenheim
CA Forum: General
Hello,
I want to set de GUI Language of Crystal Reports to English. My regional settings are Dutch but I don't want to change that. Is there another way to change this. I'm using all my applications in English and only this one is Dutch.
I've read somewhere that I have to delete my language DLL's from crystal report but than it only works when i start crystal directly from the executable, not when double - click the report and choose open with. All my colleagues have the same problem.
Really strange because with all other developer software it is possible to select a GUI language.
Hope someone can help me.

I've found the solution. I've renamed the english resource file to the dutch and vice versa. Now Crystal starts without running the setup for installing the missing language. Still strange this isn't an option in Crystal Report.

How to change crystal report data field at runtime ?

Hello everyone,
I have a Crystal Report file ,which i am using to generate report for my windows form project .
In that report i have a filed called as Quantity which data type is set as decimal, the requirement is like that the number of value those comes after decimal point that should be set according to the value which is given by the user at the run time .
For eg: If user gives 1 at the run time then the report Qty field value set one value after decimal point. Like 12.1
if user gives 2 then Qty field the value is 12.22 like tat but user can give from zero to any number.. and if it is zero it should not show decimal
Note: The main idea hear is how to change the filed in Crystal Report decimal point value by using code(or we say writing code we need to set manually as user input it will change)
Can any body help me how to solve this issue .
S.K Nayak

I think you could probably make the field you see a formula field and take a parameter as the number of decimal places.
totext converts a number to a string.
totext({decimalField}, 2)
That's 2 decimal places.
You could probably substitute a {parameter} for that 2.
If not then you could substitute an entire formula.
To explore formulas:
foreach (FormulaFieldDefinition f in rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields)
MessageBox.Show(f.Name);
// f.Text = your new formula
Where rpt is an instantiated report.
Or add another string field which you display in the column and do the calculation with the original decimal.
Hope that helps.
