Connecting Crystal XI with Act database 10

Could anybody point me in the right direction for information on how to connect Crystal XI with Act version 10?
Thankyou!

Hi Mark,
According to our Platforms PDF file we only support ACT 5 and 6 for CR XI and XI R2. CR 2008 only support ACT 6.
Articles - select the version of CR and look for the Platforms PDF files.
But this only means we have not tested it. So it may not work but if you can tell me what errors you are getting we may be able to help.
Thank you
Don

I Think my question is really clear
I ask this because i think i already used every way logic in my head

Etc

Connecting Crystal report with MySql

Post Author: brajbhushan
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
hi all
i m trying to connect crystal reports XI Release 2 to MySql 5.0 using ODBC.Problem is that after connecting it successfully it shows only few fields of our table in database when i see it in Database Expert of Crystal Reports. The second problem is that the fields don't have any data with them. Can anyone guide me is there any problem with Crystal Reports while connecting to MySql. Is there any Compatibilty Problem of DataType in Crystal Reports while using MySql.
Thanks

Moved to .NET SDK forums
First issue is CR 10 has not been tested nor is it supported in VS 2010.
To use CR in VS 2010 download [CR for VS 2010|Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 Production Release Now Available;
Likely what your problem is is you are not setting or replacing the database connection info but without more info I can't suggest how to fix it. It could also be that you have set your framework to 4.0, CR 10 is FW 1.1 or possibly 2.0 only.
Or you may even be trying to use the craxddrt.dll which is again no longer supported not are you licensed to use it or distribute it.
Also you'll likely run into version problems with IIS. I believe CR 10 only supported IIS 5 but check the platforms PDF for more info.
Good luck.

Connecting Crystal report with SAP MAX DB DATABASE

Hi friends,
Can we connect SAP MAXDB database with crystal report to generate reports.
If yes pls give me steps to do the same.

> Can we connect SAP MAXDB database with crystal report to generate reports.
Technically that's possible -y es.
> basically we want to generate few reports in crystal report(separate from SAP ABAP)
You can use the SAP standard tools (SAP Query - SQ00) or Quick Views (SQVI) to do the same in ABAP.
If you connect to the database with an external tool you have to use a user who has ALL permissions on the database, means, a full table can accidentally be deleted. The user can also use ALL tables.

First you need to make sure you have the proper OBDC driver installed so Windows knows where to look. What OS is on your desktop?

Maintaining formats(layouts) on Crystal report with different database

I was just needing some help maintaining the layout of a report but using a different database. The databases are very similar for example, a field for the database in use is line1xxxx what I wish to do is keep all the formating & point it line2xxxx database. Where line1 is the original Database & Line2 is the new database I wish to use. Both of these databases reside in the same folder its just that I need identical reports for both Line 1 & Line 2 & am trying to get away from duplicating all the work I did on the Line 1 report.
Hopefully not too trivial for this forum.
Thanks in advance.

If you have same tables in both the databases then open the report and go to menu option in the report database-->set data source location and create new connection in the bottom window and select both existing connection from top window and new from bottom and click on update. Now the report points to the new database, so now use save as option to save the report with some other name so that you can have the old report with old connection and the new one with new connection.

Connect Crystal report with FI Data through MAXDB ERP Tables or Datasources

Hi,
I want to create crystal report queries for SAP ERP FI Data. The source system database is MAXDB.
How can i connect the maxDB database or ERP to crystal report?
Do i need tables or datasources to create queries, and how do i connect them to crystal report.
I will thankful for any help.
Kind regards
Arnaud

I would recommend to take a look here:
BOBJ and SAP R/3
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/03/23/businessobjects-and-sap-part-4
The drivers I am talking about will be available in the CR Designer once you install the BO integration kit for SAP solutions.
If you try to access directly the underlying MAX DB database you will not have access to all data since SAP ERP stores the data partially compressed in the database tables.

Connecting R console with Oracle Database

Hi,
I had Oracle database client installed in my desktop which connects to the oracle Database 11g and 12c.
I also installed R console. How can I connect to Database from R console
Thanks & Regards
Surya

Surya,
To use ROracle to connect to Oracle Database, simply install and load the ROracle package in R and load the driver:
   R> install.packages("ROracle")
   R> library(ROracle)
    Loading required package: DBI
   R> drv <- dbDriver("Oracle")
Once the ROracle package is installed, create a database connection object and connect to Oracle Database as the OS user.
   R> conn <- dbConnect(drv, username ="<your.username>", password="<your.password>",
                   dbname = "<your.connect.string>")
ROracle binaries (Windows, AIX, Solaris, SPARC) can be downloaded from OTN. The Linux source package can be downloaded from CRAN. You may also refer to OTN resources to Learn More about ROracle.
If you wish to take advantage of the features provided by Oracle R Enterprise, such as transparent access to R base functionality, in-database analytics, and interface to Oracle Data Mining functionality, you'll need to follow the installation instructions in the installation guide.
Best Regards,
Sherry
