Hi friends ,
i have to control the printing of a report on the condintion that if a field value is changed then printing should not happen.
so i want to know how to control this behavior of a report.
your hints are highly appreciated.
Thanx .
SajidFirst you need to turn the PRINT button off on the selection screen. Then turn it off on the list. This sample program will show you how to do both. Notice that you must create a new gui-status for the list display, make sure to put a function code for the green arrow as "BACK", put the fcode 'PRIN' for the print button. Notice that we will exclude this when setting the status.
report zrich_0001.
* Used to limit user commands on selection-screen
include rsdbc1xx.
parameters: p_check type c.
* Events
at selection-screen output.
if p_check = 'A'.
append 'PRIN' to current_scr-excl.
else.
delete current_scr-excl where fcode = 'PRIN'.
endif.
start-of-selection.
if p_check = 'A'.
set pf-status 'LIST' excluding 'PRIN'.
endif.
write:/ 'list'.

Unable to print crystal report over web using ActiveX Control
Post Author: jimmyp
CA Forum: General
We have a problem with printing crystal report over web using ActiveX Control. When clicking print button, it only shows a blank dialog web crystal viewer page without any error. The page just simply hangs. We installed the PrintControl DLL and enable all the security setting for ActiveX Control for IE. It still does not print. Does anyone know why?
Environment.
Bundle Crystal Report v10
Asp.net 2.0
IE 6.0 or higher.
Appreciate for your help.

A team member here found this, I haven't read it, I'm not sure if our problems are related to this, but hopefully it helps someone:
-ian
When Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is enabled, using the ActiveX control to print reports from a Crystal 10 DHTML viewer results in the following error message:
"A communication error occurred, printing will be stopped."
How can this error message be resolved?
Resolution
This is a known issue with Crystal Reports 10 and Crystal Enterprise 10 viewers and has been tracked. The Track ID is ADAPT00282199.
This error occurs due to the receiving application performing a case-sensitive check for the HTTPS request header value "ON". When a sender application sends the value as "on" in lower case, the error occurs. The update below changes the receiving application to be case-insensitive.
Hot Fixes or Service Packs address this issue as indicated below. With the updates, this issue is resolved.
Unless indicated otherwise, Weekly Hot Fix updates from our FTP site have only been tested with English versions of products.

Print report and append control image to report.vi problem
why print report.vi and control image to report.vi can't executable in xp service pack 3??
before that, i use xp service pack 1. these sub vi can use successful. but after i transfer all ni file into xp service pack 3, that sub vi can't executable..why it happen???
please, help me...When you said that you used your VIs in service pack 1 and then transferred to Service pack 3, are you referring to 2 different computers or you simply updated the computer with SP1 to SP3?
If you are using 2 different computers, were all the software and the toolkit also installed in the pc with SP3? I am using XP with SP3 and I am not having any problems with the print vi.
If you have more information, like if you get an error message, kindly post it here as well.

Hello All,
I need to print a crystal report directly to the printer without using ReportViewer in C#. I've a CrystalReport2(belowCode) which requires a query (Select * from JobHeader where JobNumber='J012345') to display all the data. I'm stuck with database connection
and putting all the data to DataAdapter in C# (Below Code). I also have 8 subreports in my CrystalReport2. Can somebody please give me hand on this? I'm struggling with it. Thanks.

Problem with NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on different machines
We have 5 machines here in our workgroup which have the same state regarding security patches and other system updates. We recently found out that there is a problem with the NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on the different machines.
If I would open the VI on MachineA the control could be loaded. If I would open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineB to MachineA and open the VI the control could not be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineA to MachineB and open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. MachineB could load the version from MachineA and MachineB but on MachineA only the own version will load. I have seen that both versions have the same GUID for the Microsoft Webbrowser but are different in some other aereas.
Since printing HTML Reports is part of the application which will be distributed as application I want to know if someone else have seen such a behaviour or has got problems distributing an application.
Also I want to know which additional information is stored in an Active-X container about the control beside the GUID.
We have Win XP Prof SP2 with MS IE 6.0.2900.2180 on all machines in the workgroup.

Don't forget to give Kudos to good answers and/or questionsHi Tom,
this is the VI <vi.lib>\Utillitiy\NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi copied from a machine that can load and run the VI and it will print. On this machine the control in the VI is white.
This VI will give the "Control could not be loaded" message on my machine.
The file shdocvw.dll is 2006-10-23 16:18 size 1.460 KB and I verifyed that both machines have the same version of this file.

Screen Print and report print in 11g Forms
Hi,
I have created a popup menu in forms 11g which has a label print screen.
When user clicks on it, it is supposed to bring up the list of printers that user has on his PC, so that they can choose the printer where they want to print to.
Do I need to use webutil for it? or is there any other way?.
Thanks
MunishIf you plan on printing from the client your only options are to use WebUtil or write your own java bean.
That said, if you are generating the labels using Reports, why not generate to a pdf file? If you coded your form properly, the pdf will open on the client side in something like Acrobat Viewer. If they want to print it they can click on the "Print" button in PDF viewer.
If you really want to make it complicated and present a list of printers and allow them to pick one then send the job to the printer, this will take some effort. Here are some starter tips assuming the client will always be Windows based:
You can get the current default printer like this:
-- More registry info for printing can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/102966
Declare
rtn_Registry varchar2(255);
rtn_defaultPrinter varchar2(255);
Begin
rtn_Registry := CLIENT_WIN_API_ENVIRONMENT.Read_Registry('HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows','Device');
rtn_defaultPrinter := substr(rtn_Registry,1,instr(rtn_Registry,',',1)-1);
message (rtn_defaultPrinter); -- This is the name of the default printer
End;Some printer properties and preferences can be called with something like this:
-- More details here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q189105/
Declare
my_cmd varchar2(255);
rtn_Registry varchar2(255);
rtn_defaultPrinter varchar2(255);
Begin
-- Get default printer
rtn_Registry := CLIENT_WIN_API_ENVIRONMENT.Read_Registry('HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows','Device');
rtn_defaultPrinter := substr(rtn_Registry,1,instr(rtn_Registry,',',1)-1);
-- Printer default preferences
my_cmd := 'rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /e /n "'|| rtn_defaultPrinter ||'"';
-- Printer properties
-- my_cmd := 'rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /p /n "'|| rtn_defaultPrinter ||'"';
-- Printer queue
-- my_cmd := 'rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /o /n "'|| rtn_defaultPrinter ||'"';
If rtn_defaultPrinter IS NULL Then
Message('Default printer not detected.');
Message('Default printer not detected.');
RAISE Form_Trigger_Failure;
End if;
SYNCHRONIZE;
CLIENT_HOST(my_cmd);
End;The complete list of installed printers can be found in the Registry here:
<blockquote>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers</blockquote>
Take a look at this java bean example used to help print to the local printer from Forms.

How to print the report directly without previewing (report viewer) using c# windows application
Hi,
Currently, we are using crystal report to all of our reporting applications, but since I/users have encountered some issues about CR's speed to load only a simple report, maybe it is now time for us to adopt a new reporting environment in which I think SSRS
can fill this problem.
To start with, I have here a sample code, that uses the crystal report to print the report directly without previewing:
csCashInvoiceCal csCashCal; --Crystal report name .rpt
dsCsReceipt dsCs; --created dataset
DataTable u;
DataRow s;
private System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument printDocument1;
private System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog printDialog1;
ParameterValues paramValue;
ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue;
ParameterFieldDefinition fieldDefinition;
private void btnPrint_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt2();
print2();
csCashCal.Close();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
private void loadReceipt2()
dsCs = new dsCsReceipt(); --created dataset
u = dsCs.Tables.Add("DtCsReceipt");
u.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
s = u.NewRow(); double.TryParse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Discount2.Name].Value.ToString(), out discount);
s["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
s["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
s["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
s["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
s["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
s["Discount"] = "";
s["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
u.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
csCashCal = new csCashInvoiceCal();
csCashCal.SetDataSource(dsCs.Tables[1]);
//csCashCal.Refresh();
loadParameter2();
private void loadParameter2()
ParameterFieldDefinitions paramFieldDefinitions;
paramValue = new ParameterValues();
discreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
paramFieldDefinitions = csCashCal.DataDefinition.ParameterFields;
discreteValue.Value = date;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["Date"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtcsno.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["InvoiceNo"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtNameTo.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerName"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtAdd.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerAddress"];
commonParam();
------other parameters----
private void commonParam()
paramValue.Clear();
paramValue.Add(discreteValue);
fieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(paramValue);
private void print2()
using (printDocument1 = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument())
using (this.printDialog1 = new PrintDialog())
//this.printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
this.printDialog1.Document = this.printDocument1;
DialogResult dr = this.printDialog1.ShowDialog();
if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
int nCopy = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.Copies;
int sPage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;
int ePage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;
string PrinterName = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;
try
csCashCal.PrintOptions.PrinterName = PrinterName;
csCashCal.PrintToPrinter(nCopy, false, sPage, ePage);
printcount++;
//saveCountPrint();
catch (Exception err)
MessageBox.Show(err.ToString());
This is only a simple sales receipt application that uses dgv and textboxes to push its data to dataset to the crystal report, a simple one but there are instances that it is very slow.
But I'm having trouble implementing this using SSRS, since I'm only new to this one, wherein I created the report using report wizard, with two button options inside the form for print preview or direct print selection. Actually, it is very easy to implement
with print preview because it uses reportviewer. My problem is that how can I print the report directly without using a reportviewer?
So here is my code so far which I don't know what's next:
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt3();
//print3();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
ReportParameter[] parameter = new ReportParameter[11];
private void loadParameter3()
parameter[0] = new ReportParameter("InvoiceNo", txtcsno.Text);
parameter[1] = new ReportParameter("Date", date);
parameter[2] = new ReportParameter("CustomerTin", txtTin.Text);
parameter[3] = new ReportParameter("CustomerName", txtNameTo.Text);
parameter[4] = new ReportParameter("CustomerAddress", txtAdd.Text);
parameter[5] = new ReportParameter("Agent", agent);
parameter[6] = new ReportParameter("Discount", "Discount: ");
parameter[7] = new ReportParameter("TotalDiscount", lblDiscount.Text + "%");
parameter[8] = new ReportParameter("TotalSales", rdtotal);
parameter[9] = new ReportParameter("Tax", rdtax);
parameter[10] = new ReportParameter("TotalAmount", rdnet);
private void loadReceipt3()
DataSet dsrs = new DataSet();
DataTable dtrs = new DataTable();
DataRow drs;
dtrs.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try

localreport.DataSources.Clear();
localreport.DataSources.Add(new ReportDataSource("dsSalesReceiptSsrs", dtrs));
localreport.Refresh();
//what's next....
So what's next after local..refresh()? Actually, I have googled a lot but I didn't found the exact solution that I'm looking for which confuses me a lot.
Anyway I'm using VS 2010 with sql server 2012 express.
You're help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
HardzAfter some further studies with ReportViewer controls and with the use of this tutorial @ : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252091.aspx, which helps me a lot on how to print a report without using a report viewer, I found out what is missing
with my code above and helps solve my question.
Here's the continuation of the code above:
private void loadReceipt3()
loadParameter3();
LocalReport localreport = new LocalReport();
localreport.ReportPath = @"..\..\SsrsCashReceipt.rdlc";
localreport.SetParameters(parameter);
localreport.DataSources.Clear();
localreport.DataSources.Add(new ReportDataSource("dsSalesReceiptSsrs", dtrs));
Export(localreport);
print4();
private IList<Stream> m_streams;
private int m_currentPageIndex;
private void Export(LocalReport report)
string deviceInfo =
@"<DeviceInfo>
<OutputFormat>EMF</OutputFormat>
<PageWidth>8.5in</PageWidth>
<PageHeight>11in</PageHeight>
<MarginTop>0.25in</MarginTop>
<MarginLeft>0.25in</MarginLeft>
<MarginRight>0.25in</MarginRight>
<MarginBottom>0.25in</MarginBottom>
</DeviceInfo>";
Warning[] warnings;
m_streams = new List<Stream>();
report.Render("Image", deviceInfo, CreateStream,
out warnings);
foreach (Stream stream in m_streams)
stream.Position = 0;
private void print4()
if (m_streams == null || m_streams.Count == 0)
throw new Exception("Error: no stream to print.");
PrintDocument printDoc = new PrintDocument();
PrintDialog printDlg = new PrintDialog();
printDlg.Document = printDoc;
DialogResult dr = printDlg.ShowDialog();
if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
if (!printDoc.PrinterSettings.IsValid)
throw new Exception("Error: cannot find the default printer.");
else
printDoc.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(PrintPage);
m_currentPageIndex = 0;
printDoc.Print();
Dispose();
public void Dispose()
if (m_streams != null)
foreach (Stream stream in m_streams)
stream.Close();
m_streams = null;
private Stream CreateStream(string name, string fileNameExtension, Encoding encoding, string mimeType, bool willSeek)
Stream stream = new FileStream(name + "." + fileNameExtension,
FileMode.Create);
m_streams.Add(stream);
return stream;
private void PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs ev)
Metafile pageImage = new
Metafile(m_streams[m_currentPageIndex]);
// Adjust rectangular area with printer margins.
Rectangle adjustedRect = new Rectangle(
ev.PageBounds.Left - (int)ev.PageSettings.HardMarginX,
ev.PageBounds.Top - (int)ev.PageSettings.HardMarginY,
ev.PageBounds.Width,
ev.PageBounds.Height);
// Draw a white background for the report
ev.Graphics.FillRectangle(Brushes.White, adjustedRect);
// Draw the report content
ev.Graphics.DrawImage(pageImage, adjustedRect);
// Prepare for the next page. Make sure we haven't hit the end.
m_currentPageIndex++;
ev.HasMorePages = (m_currentPageIndex < m_streams.Count);
Thank you very much for this wonderful tutorial. :) -
Error according printing html report
I bulid a vi to print HTML report but I have problem printing this report .
I try ever to used some example which national Instrument bulid , such as Report Generation > Text
Report, but ever in this example I couldn't print the file (HTML).Wisam,
Could you tell us what procedure are you following to run that example? and also what version of LabVIEW you have?
The way you have to run that example (Text Report.vi) is that when you open it, in the control that reads: "Report Type" you select HTML, and also in the control that reads "HTML Save Path" you set the path like for example "C:\test1.htm", now run it and you should have now the HTML format type report. I believe that you also have in that same directory of examples another one called : Example HTML Report Report, that one also shows how to print a report to an HTML file. Try the example you mention setting up the controls that I wrote above and it should work. If not please contact us and we can try to send you an original example and see if i
t works. You can do it by this same means or by direct contact ( www.ni.com/ask ).
Good luck!...

Can I print Crystal report in Adobe by just hitting print??
Hello All,
I have my saved my report in Infoview (BO) and if I hit print it asks me to install
u201CCrystal report print control u201Csoftware.
And if I choose export option it gives me few options and I can then print.
Now my question is, is it possible to print the report in adobe once I hit print? Can that be done as default settings??
ThanksHi,
Check if any Printers are installed on the server side?
What are your printer drivers installed on your local machine?
Thanks,

Control image to report doesn't take all width

print_panel.vi 38 KBHi,
I regret to say that the image size is a known bug with the Report Generator. There is currently no workaround for this issue. The image size cannot be greater than a 1� margin on both sides. I hope you�ll be able to work around this. The issue will be fixed in a future version of LV.
