CR Locks on Database Expert existing rpt / Load report failed on new rpt

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 / CR 2010 13.0.1.220
1) Have a CR (VB) that has been working fine in development for over two weeks and suddenly locks up when attempting to open Database Expert. I right click it to select Expert ... and then nothing. I have to terminate the task.
2) Loaded a Backup of this project to attempt to save the work on the report...same thing...locks up when attempting to open Database Expert. This report will compile and bring data (from XML) into the viewer but I cannot add additional information from the XML using Database Expert.
3) Went to create a totally new crystal report...bombs at the point when the CReport tries to load with error: "Load report failed"
4) From threads on this forum...tried suggestion of downloading and converting "vbnet_win_SimplePreviewReport" from VS2002 to VS2010 ... still receive error "load report failed" when it tries to find "World Sales Report.rpt" even though this report is in this directory: C:\Crystal\CRNET\vbnet_win_SimplePreviewReport\vbnet_win_SimplePreviewReport
I need some assistance to resolve these errors.

See KB [KB 1540637 - Error: External component has thrown an exception.

Repair of VS2010 and CRVS2010 should also be considered.

Error in report generation-Load report failed

I have installed crystal reports for VS2005 runtime in my live environment.When i try to load the report file from a .Net page i am getting the error'Error in Report generation-Load report failed'.
This works fine in development and testing but when moved to production we are having issues.
I believe i have a workaround i.e i need to open the rpt in a VS 2005 environment and re-write the connection string again.This fix had worked in development and testing when we had the same issue.
But not sure if this is a known issue with crystal reports and if so do we have any hot fixes for the same.
Please help.

Hi Don,
The reason why i posted the item on 'data Connectivity issues' is because i suspect the problem is with the connection string.Though i had provided the correct connection string,re-writing the connection string with the same info might help to fix the issue with loading the report.
Does it mean that there is a problem in the connectivity?
I have a risk here that i cant re-write the connection string..i.e to open the RPT file in VS2005 and bind it.The production web server & database server sits in a third party environment and it is not in the company network.So i cant connect to this server to re-write from any other severs in the network.
Is there any fix which can applied to the server to get this issue resolved?
Cheers
Nithya.

Crystal Reports Load report failed

Hi all,
Using VS2008. Crystal Reports 2008.
I have a .net application which uses LINQ. I am required to integrate existing Crystal reports into the web site.
In my web config file i have my connection string set up
<add name="connection Name" connectionString="Data Source=ServerName;Initial Catalog=database;uid=username;password=Password;Integrated Security=SSPI" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
and also I have set the authentication as follows:
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<identity impersonate="true" userName="username" password="password"/>
I need the impersonation for when I deploy my app to the server.
The crystal report uses an existing connection set up when the report was created. So this is not tied to a LINQ table (i think this may be the problem).
I have no clue how to progress from here. When I try to change the datasource location to the LINQ table within the application, it won't map properly as the table contains nullable values.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Louise

Hi,
That particular problem with 'Load Report Failed' was happening because the identity impersonation account I had set up did not have rights to my TEMP folder on my machine. Crystal needs to be able to read and write to that folder.
I hope that helps you.

CR for VS2010 "Load report failed"

like in "Load report failed" error with VS 2010 upgrade
web application works fine on Dev but "Load report failed" when deployed to another server (Win2003 or Win2008r2 (fresh installs); latest CR redistributables; beta never existed on these servers).
useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy set and full access (all the accounts and even to Everyone group now) granter to the Windows/Temp folder (temp report file is created under windows/temp).
the Process Monitor show no "failed" access or something (worst is Name not Found)
any suggestions where to look next?
and just in case the exception (inner for the "load report failed"): "Unsupported Operation. A document processed by the JRC engine cannot be opened in the C++ stack. clientdoc.dll"
Edited by: Kirill.Y on Feb 21, 2011 2:25 PM

finally identified where problem is:
it happens if:
1. project is Web Site
2. you are trying to run web application from the "Published" code (all the checkboxes are unticked in the Publich dialog)
3. code for the Report class is under App_Code folder
4. report file (RPT) in subfolder, i.e. not under root
P.S.: also: if embedRptInResource set to true, ResourceName from the class used to reference RPT file is ignored, i.e. RPT file generates code itself. So, the embedRptInResource must be set to false if you want to avoid such case
In my case i just get rid of Report classes and moved RPT files into the App_Code folder (in one of subfolder under App_Code; and embedRptInResource=true).
So, either keep everything under root or move RPT files into App_Code
Btw, useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy is not required, i.e. in my case everything works just fine without it (.Net 4).

"Load report failed" after upgrading to Crystal Report for VS 2010

I switched to Visual Studio 2010 few months ago. Today, I needed to update my Crystal Report reports, so I installed the Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 on my local server. I updated my reports and it works fine on my local server.
On my remote server, I installed the Crystal Report runtime engine for Framework 4.0 (note that my project use the framework 3.5) and published my project. But now I got the following error when I want to create a report "Load report failed". I double-checked the path of my report and its permissions (note that it was working before the update).
Am I missing a step ?
Thanks for your help.

Googling 'FILE LOCKED WITH ONLY READERS' I came up with the following:
http://forum.sysinternals.com/topic21378.html
So, no, that does not appear to be the issue.
However my assertion - given that the correct dlls are loading - is still that either the report is not there (do you see it loaded in Process Monitor?) or the process has no access to either the actual rpt or the temp files that the print engine creates. Those really are the only reasons for report load errors.
This being a web app, try a simple win app - as a test. All you need is the viewer and CrystalreportViewer1.ReportSource = <path to report> (use a saved data report). Compile, throw the exe on the server. Run. What happens there?

Intermittent "Load Report Failed" error on IIS6 ASP 4.0

I can run reports designed in Crystal 2011 and embedded in VS2010 designed web pages on a Windows 2003 SP2 server every day. However, once every 2 - 3 days I get a "Load Report Failed - A document processed by the JRC engine cannot be opened in the C++ stack". The first instance of this error causes all subsequent user access to Crystal Reports to fail with the same error. When the ASP 4.0 application pool is recycled the error goes away.
I was getting the "Load Report Failed" error due to "out of memory" I until made sure that the crystalreportviewer.dispose was run on exiting each report page.
Here is how I run Crystal Reports:
   Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
        If Not IsPostBack Then
            Dim myAL As New Hashtable
            myAL.Add("MO1", Request.QueryString("MONum1"))
            myAL.Add("MO2", Request.QueryString("MONum1"))
            Dim filename As String = ""
            filename = Server.MapPath("~/reports") + "\MfgPicklistByMO.rpt"
            Dim u As New CrystalUtilities
            Session("crViewer") = u.SetupReport(filename, myAL)
        End If
        CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Session("crViewer")
    End Sub
   Public Function SetupReport(ByVal fileName As String, _
                 ByVal Params As Hashtable, Optional ByVal dbParam As Boolean = True) As   CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
        Dim objCrystalReportDocument As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
        objCrystalReportDocument.Load(fileName)
.... logs onto a selected database, and loads paramters

I have installed CrystalReportViewer1.Dispose() statements on all of the link events to navigate out of the pages with the CrystalViewer. However, it turns out that several users are using the back arrow to navigate out of the page instead of the navigation links I have put on the page.
I can't seem to find any event in ASPNET 4 that fires when the back arrow is pushed. If I could find such an event I could put a CrystalReportViewer1.dispose statement there assuming CrystalReportViewer1 still has scope.    The Page_Disposed event does not fire when the back arrow is pushed.
Environment: VS2010, Crystall 2011, ASPNET 4.0

Reproducible error when loading many reports (Load report failed - Not enough memory for operation)

Environment:
Win 7 SP 1
Visual Studio Pro 2012 Update 4
Crystal Reports for Visual Studios Service Pack 10 (13.0.10.1385)
Report created in Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (11.5.8.826)
Targeting x86 .NET 4.0
Scenario:
We have a program that runs and creates a large number of reports before the process is ended. When running after many hours we'd get a Load report failed/Not enough memory of operation exception. I kept removing code and found i could reproduce just using the report.Load call. I simplified the report to a completely blank report to make sure it was nothing specific to a report I was loading. (Opened Crystal Reports XI Release 2, Save As, "Blank.rpt".). I then created, loaded, and disposed of this report in a loop. I was able to cause the same exception after 32,764 iterations on my machine. I also tried using .NET 3.5 same result. I added a counter to our main program and it also went through 32,764 report loads before the same exception was thrown. Main program uses 15 or so different reports with a variable number of subreports in each.
Sample Code to illustrate the problem:
I did this as a WinForms project since our main program is using winforms.

I am disposing and cleaning up the datasets in the main app. That is why I didn't include them in this test; they aren't relevant.
I'm unsure why this test program is completely irrelevant. It throws the same exception, at the same count, as the main program. It does it in substantially less lines of code than our main program. I spent days running long tests to figure out exactly what I needed to make the problem appear so I could post a clean and precise post on these forums. I then created the test program to illustrate that.
The "real" code as I said does stuff in sections and in a certain order.
For each report I need to export based on rows in a table
1. Creates a new Report Document
2. Loads the report document with the report
3. Creates a dataset of the data to display
4. Calls SetDataSource
5. Calls Report.ExportToDisk
6. Disposes DataSets
7. Closes/Disposes Reports
To help isolate the problem I first took out the export to disk part (Step 5). The problem still occurred. I then took out everything related to our data. (Step 3, Step 4, Step 6). The problem still occurred. And yes I commented out this code in our main real program. This left me with:
1. Creates a new Report Document
2. Loads the report document with the report
7. Closes/Disposes Reports
At this point i had to prove it was not dependent on the report. This makes sure it's not a database connection, or pulling too much data into the report. The most efficient test for this is a blank report.
So my order of operations becomes...
1. Creates a new Report Document
2. Loads the report document with a blank report
7. Closes/Disposes Reports
So you'll see this is exactly why I wrote this test the way that I did.
I've had a run where it error on iteration 32761. My last runs have errored on 32764. I have had many runs over many weeks that all error with the same exception.
There are no temp files left behind, With a test running you can see the temp files being added but they are immediately removed.

"Load report failed" error with VS 2010 upgrade

I have a report system that has been running nicely for a few years. Today, I upgraded it to use the latest Crystal from Visual Studio 2010. I installed the .net framework 4.0, installed the Crystal runtime (64 bit), and updated the web site with slightly revised code to use the new stuff. Now, reports that worked yesterday fail with the 'load report failed' error. A little research shows that the file name passed to the report engine is correct (and is the same as it has always been). I see that rpt files are being created in windows\temp each time a report is requested, so it seems that the report file is being found.
The code change I made was to use the new ExportToHttpResponse method.
When deployed in development and test environments (both 32 bit). this worked perfectly. In production, however, no such luck. I wonder if I have missed a setting somewhere, or if there is something extra to do on a 64 bit server?
Does anyone have a clue for me?
More info - I found the following error in the event log:
The keycode assembly, BusinessObjects.Licensing.KeycodeDecoder.dll, cannot be loaded.
... which I thought was interesting until I noticed the same error occurs on my dev machine, where the reports are working.
I also used process monitor to check the dlls loaded on the production box, and they all seem to be the latest version. I tried using the 'modules' utility on my production box, but it did not pick up the Crystal stuff (or any of my web stuff - I wonder if it is a 32-bit only tool?).

I just tried this again with the same result. I uninstalled the previous Crystal, deleted all the old folders and reg keys I could find, then installed the new 64 bit redist package. I asigned permissions to the SAP reg key tree. I ended up with the same result: "Invalid file name". There were new files created in the temp folder for each report request, so I can tell that my.rpt files are being found.
I used process monitor to see what was happening, and here are the results that seem interesting:
RegOpenKey     HKU\.DEFAULT\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0     NAME NOT FOUND
RegOpenKey     HKU\.DEFAULT\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0     NAME NOT FOUND

Since it seemed to be trying to create files in the \win64_x64 folder, I allowed the process full access, but it didn't help. It was also looking for SmAgentAPI.dll which does not seem to exist on my system.

Load Report Failed error sporadically shows up

Hi all,
I have written an asp.net web site (CR2008 sp2.5, .net3.5, VS2008, vb.net running on winServ2003 hitting an Oracle 10g database) that does nothing but dish out reports for users. I built in the asp.net member/role security, which works fine, and different sections have a "frmReportViewer.aspx" file that has a crystal report viewer control in it.
Based on a querystring parameter, the report will load the correct rpt to the control on the page.
here's the problem.: sometimes when loading a report, it instantly comes back with "LOAD REPORT FAILED". Sometimes, you can close the window, click the link again, and it will work fine. Sometimes, if the report does load, then if i try to drill down into a group, it will tell me "no valid report source is available" in a little ajax-style dialog box in the report.
My main question is....why does this work sometimes? this instability will make this project go down the tubes (along with my job perhaps)....I showed my company what CAN be done, now i need to make it RUN LIKE IT SHOULD!
THANKS IN ADVANCE!
GEORGE
Edited by: george hardy on Mar 25, 2010 7:58 PM

Make sure you are disposing and closing the report object;
repdoc.close
repdoc.dispose
once you are done with it.
Also, search the kbase for the error:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_ossnotes&query=&adv=true
Kbases / Notes 1218766, 1217643 would be a sampling of what you'll find there.
From your description, it is not clear if this occurs under heavier loads. If it is, increasing the allowed print job count may help. For more details see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f053713e-3e3d-2c10-2a81-f79259e54023] article.

Load report failed error at setdatabaselogon

Crystal Reports with VS2005 - Load Report failed Error....

Post Author: rajeshvijayan
CA Forum: Older Products
Hi,
I am running Crystal Reports viewer on IIS6.0 and windows server 2003, which was installed using the redistributable package that comes along with Visual Studio 2005. We open these reports through a web based application 1 which is run on a different application pool on IIS. We have about 3 to 4 other web applications runing on the same IIS. All the other Web applications are working fine.
This web application 1 has 2 parts - one is the normal data display quiries from the back end SQL server 2005 and the other is the Crystal Reports which also quires data from SQL Server 2005. At times i find that these reports all of them throw an error - Load Report Failed. At the same time the Part 1 of this application does work fine in showing the data that is queried from the database. Moreover at this stage, I dont find any errors in the Event viewer. If i restart this application pool alone, the reports starts working fine again.
I had gone through a few of the news groups and have made all the necessary permission related changes like the TEMP Folder, ASP.NET temporary folder, the folder in which the crystal reports is placed etc but still the same error throws up after some point in time. Wanted to know if there is any special configuration required on the Application pool when it comes to Crystal Reports. We have bout 10 to 15 users using this application for testing and it only throws this error at times and not always.
Looking forward to any kind of solution from your side.
Regards
Rajesh

Yes I too have been fighting this problem. I was using a XML Data file and schema file for my u201Cdatabase templateu201D in the report. I would then run my query using the .NET SQLClient then fill the report with my dataset table using the SetDataSource method from the ReportDocument object.
I tried both embedded and runtime loaded reports all worked fine on my development machine but would NOT work on my production server. I use all the server installs, played with user rights, registering DLLu2019s still nothing. I went as far as creating a winform app to fix the problem. I then had exactly the same problem, I was catching the error and it originated from the viewer control in both winform and webforms.
What finally worked for me was to attach to the database using OLE DB instead of XML/schema (xml/xsd) datasource then pasting my SQL Query into the database connection command this gave me the fields to build the report. I actually used the u201CSet Database Locationu201D Dialog in Crystal Reports so I didnu2019t have to redesign my report. This dialog works very weird but I managed to figure it out. I then used an embedded report and all seem to be well. I think there is a problem with the Crystal Reports .NET Server Install and Merge Modules used with .NET with XML files, but I cannot be sure, all I know is this worked for me.
I am concerned that if my database server is moved or renamed my report might break because the server connection is embedded in the report, but for right now it is working. I thought that was the reason for using the xsd file was to eliminate the dependence on a server connection in the report.
Good luck and I hope this helps you fix your problem too. If it does please let me know I have see so many reports of people asking questions about this problem and it seems like most are left hanging.

Runtime v13.0.6.1027 causing Load Report Failed on Citrix Receiver v13.4.0.25

With the installation of SP6 runtime, our clients that connect via Citrix are getting the following Load Report Failed message:
In order to fix, they must change their Citrix Connection Session Security for Files to Full Access. And, apparently, even if this Files setting is correct, they still cannot create files on the root of their C: drive, so they must create a new folder on their C: dirve and save any files to that folder.
I saw this discussion Crystal report error while loading the file and Don stated:
"Hello,
It's exactly what it says, the path to the report is not correct, user does not have permission to it or it simply doesn't exist.
Check Citrix's Forum, there are known issues with it and CR.
Don"
Prior to our upgrade to V13.0.6.1027, we we used the Crystal 2008 runtime components to run reports, and had no issue. Why, with this version of runtime does the access change? We have many citrix users, and this has become a critical issue.
Can you please point me to the specific forum that states the known issues with Citrix and CR?
Thank you

I never checked myself but because it a Citrix issue you should ask Citrix for help. They are familiar with permission issues and configurations.
If you run CR on your desktop it works...

Load Report Failed - Report Application Server Failed error at runtime

Hello, I'm pretty new to Crystal Reports so please bear with me.

Now, in my code behind I am simply trying to open a pre-built crystal report that came in the sample pack
When I try and do this in our already built website I get an error:
"Load report failed"
With the inner exception saying:
"The Report Application Server failed"
This same piece of code works perfectly if I build a new website, however when I try and impliment this into our existing code base I get the error shown above. Also the samples I've used all use .NET 3.5 and the website is in 2.0. I'm not sure if that is a factor or not but that is also another piece of information that could be useful.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for you're time.

"Load Report Failed" Error after upgrading to CR XI R2 and VS 2005

Previously I had visual studio 2003 and crystal report XI and on my website project and I have this function where users can download their monthly statement. and it was working fine. here is my code of the function...
Private Sub cmdStatement_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdStatement.Click
        Dim pReport As New ReportDocument
        pReport = New ReportDocument()
        Try
            'Dim pTable As Table
            pReport.Load(Server.MapPath(".") & "\reports\MonthlyStatement.rpt")
            pReport.SetDatabaseLogon(dbUser, dbPassword, dbServer, dbDatabase)
            pReport.RecordSelectionFormula = "{CCMSC.CID}='" & mCID & "'"
            Dim pArray() As String =
            DataAccess.SqlPublic.ExecuteDataset(cnString, "webDownloadEStatement", pArray)
            Response.ClearContent()
            Response.ClearHeaders()
            Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
            pReport.ExportToHttpResponse(CrystalDecisions.[Shared].ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, Response, True, "DebtHelper_" & mCID & "_MonthlyStatement")
            pReport.Dispose()
        Catch ex As Exception
            divMessage.Visible = True
            lblMessage.Text = ex.Message
        Finally
            pReport.Dispose()
        End Try
    End Sub
Now, recently I upgraded my crystal to CR XI Release 2 SP6 and also upgraded my web project to Visual Studio 2005 with .NET 2.0. and now it gives me "report load failed" error on the very first line pReport.Load(......)
The project has updated the references related to crystal reports to the 11.5 version from 11.0. Not sure what am I missing here.
I have also opened the report file in the new crystal and saved it. I also opened it in Visual Studio itself and saved it.
I would appreciate any help possible.
Thanks

Hi! Ludek,
I have tried to hard code the path. I checked the win/temp folder and the aspnet account already has the read/write permissions.
Below is the detailed error message:

Can't print more than 75 reports... Load report failed

Hi,
I have a problem: I can't print more than 75 reports without restarting my application.
I'm using VB, Visual Studio 2005 and Crystal Reports Developer XI Release 2.
It's a windows application.
In the following examples I'm exporting to pdf but the same hapens if I put it on a viewer.
I tried to do some tests to find out the problem. I don't have a solution yet
Test 1:
I made a cycle printing 100 times the same report. I used the code from an example that was in the BusinessObjects website and just put it into a cycle. At 75 I get the error "Load Report Failed"
   at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportClientDocumentWrapper.EnsureDocumentIsOpened()
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.Load(String filename, OpenReportMethod openMethod, Int16 parentJob)
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportClass.Load(String reportName, OpenReportMethod openMethod, Int16 parentJob)
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.EnsureLoadReport()
Dim ExportFolder As String = Application.StartupPath + "\export"
If Not IO.Directory.Exists(ExportFolder) Then
IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(ExportFolder)
End If
For i As Integer = 1 To 100
Dim crReportDocument As ReportDocument
Dim crDiskFileDestinationOptions As DiskFileDestinationOptions
''The path/location where the exported file will be saved
Dim exportFilePath As String = ExportFolder + "\exported" & i & ".pdf"
''Create an instance of the Chart report
crReportDocument = New Chart()
''Set the options for saving the exported file to disk
crDiskFileDestinationOptions = New DiskFileDestinationOptions()
crDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = exportFilePath
crReportDocument.ExportOptions.DestinationOptions = crDiskFileDestinationOptions
crReportDocument.ExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
crReportDocument.ExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat
''Export the report
crReportDocument.Export()
Next
Test 2:
I try to insert a "crReportDocument.Dispose() after the Export. It takes more than 1 minute doing the dispose and lots of time processing the 2nd report (more than 2 minutes)
Dim ExportFolder As String = Application.StartupPath + "\export"
If Not IO.Directory.Exists(ExportFolder) Then
IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(ExportFolder)
End If
For i As Integer = 1 To 100
Dim crReportDocument As ReportDocument
Dim crDiskFileDestinationOptions As DiskFileDestinationOptions
''The path/location where the exported file will be saved
Dim exportFilePath As String = ExportFolder + "\exported" & i & ".pdf"
''Create an instance of the Chart report
crReportDocument = New Chart()
''Set the options for saving the exported file to disk
crDiskFileDestinationOptions = New DiskFileDestinationOptions()
crDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = exportFilePath
crReportDocument.ExportOptions.DestinationOptions = crDiskFileDestinationOptions
crReportDocument.ExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
crReportDocument.ExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat
''Export the report
crReportDocument.Export()
' Dispose
crReportDocument.Dispose()
Next
Test 3
Same as Test3 but with ReportDocument.Close() before the dispose.
Still doesn't work, Close takes too long, just like Dispose...
Test 4
I tried using a global variable with the ReportDocument.
Instead of creating new instances of the ReportDocument, I keep using the same.
It works fine if I use always the same report file, but if I try to print 2 different reports the 2nd returns the error "Load Report Failed" and takes too long loading before the error.
Well, I made some researches on internet and I foud this, but still doesn't work with me, because Dispose always takes too long...

Can anybody help?

Already tried that, then I get another problem...
After exporting the first report, takes 1 or 2 minutes doing the Close and the Dispose, and after that it takes too long trying to load the next report (after 1 hour I give up!).
This is the code I'm using to do the tests:
        'Create the export folder
        Dim ExportFolder As String = Application.StartupPath + "\export"
        If Not IO.Directory.Exists(ExportFolder) Then
            IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(ExportFolder)
        End If
        For i As Integer = 1 To 100
            Dim crReportDocument As ReportDocument
            Dim crDiskFileDestinationOptions As DiskFileDestinationOptions
            ''The path/location where the exported file will be saved
            Dim exportFilePath As String = ExportFolder + "\exported" & i & ".pdf"
            ''Create an instance of the Chart report
            crReportDocument = New Chart()
            ''Set the options for saving the exported file to disk
            crDiskFileDestinationOptions = New DiskFileDestinationOptions()
            crDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = exportFilePath
            crReportDocument.ExportOptions.DestinationOptions = crDiskFileDestinationOptions
            crReportDocument.ExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
            crReportDocument.ExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat
            ''Export the report
            crReportDocument.Export()
            'Close and dispose
            crReportDocument.Close()
            crReportDocument.Dispose()
        Next
Thanks,
Isabel
