CR2008 SP3 - Export options

Environment:
OS: Windows XP (SP3)
Crystal Reports : 12.1.0.892
We are making use of Report Viewer in our applciations (.Net)
And when we want to export to Excel 2007 and CSV we are not able to find options.
We can see only Excel (97-2003) and other options.
How we can get export to CSV and Excel 2007 (.xlsx)

Not sure why that would be the case. See the wiki [Available Export Formats, Crystal Reports 9.1 to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/FINiAw] for more details.
Three things I'd like to mention / recommend
1) You are on CR 2008 Service Pack 1. Update to SP4 by installing, then installing SP4. Service packs can be found on the downloads page:
http://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
2) Note from the wiki that the some export options are not available via the viewer, but are available via the engine (not sure if this is the case here).
3) For an exporting sample app see vbnet_win_export.zip from this location:

"Invalid Export Option" Crystal 2008 SP3, Windows 7, Outlook 2010 (32 bit)

We have one client reporting that they get "Invalid Export Option" whenever they try to email a report. We used the supplied code with VS 2008 to implement the ability to view, print, export, and email reports. Our Windows 7 computers all work without issue, except for the one with 64 bit Outlook (which is a known issue), so I'm guessing this is security/SPAM protection at the client, but it doesn't affect any of their XP computers.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thank you for the info, much better.
Have them download the trial version of CR 2008, they will have to do a Repair install of your app and CR runtime when they uninstall the trial version. Then see if they can export from the Designer.
Or if you prefer they not have access to the designer then use ProcessMonitor and follow along as they try to export, look for access Denied entries. I assume all other export formats work? Most have a pop up also to see if it's a CR issue.
There are few options for security settings in Outlook itself to not prompt but like you say it appears they are not even getting that far. Could be the pop up is behind your app, I've seen this happen before.
I did a google search and found quite a few posts on this issue. You may want to search also to see if something will help your user to get around this issue.
Possibly adding your app EXE to the trusted list in their Anti-virus software may help also. And if you haven't done so look in the various logs in their AV and Firewall and even Event Viewer to see if it captures and access denied errors.
Thanks

Invalid Export Options RAS SDKs

Hi All,
As given in post Re: XML Export - Cannot select format CR2008 SP2 We are using RAS sdks and given sample code but still we are gettting same error i.e. Invalid Export Options.
Is this also scheduled to be fixed in SP3.
Thanks,

Hi, Stanly;
The RAS code given in that post should work. Which service pack level and version of Crystal Reports are you using?
Can you show the code you are using?

Export options in Voyager

I created Voyager documents for my cubes. The tool is great in terms of its ability to report data from the multiple measures and dimensions. When it comes to Export options - The export to excel is pretty clean, but it doesn't carry the formatting to the exported file. This feature is something that our users really felt was missing. Can this feature be released as a patch or part of a service pack release? Also, the export doesn't carry the title of the report to excel or PDF (print to PDF - Data).
Thanks in Advance!!
Harish

To confirm: Column formatting like display -> Name:Caption .. .. is not being exported to excel
please refer to Note # 1345585
this behaviour will be enhanced in XI3.0 Sp3 - due end 2009.

Henry

AME CS4 only has two export options

I only have H.264 and FLV/F4V as export options for my install of AME CS4. This is on a Windows XP SP3 system. All patches/updates are installed. Anyone else run into this?

Holey MOLEY! There was 32Gb in there. The precise instructions you offered, zjimbo, didn't help on their own but I went looking for the folder where the cashe files are kept and deleted the lot then tried rendering again.
It still counts up ... where does it get the number from?!? ... anyway, now Media Encoder won't encode at all - it freezes at the "Loading "....."" stage. Going back to the oiginal problem - do you think this will solve the output failure for me?

CRVS2010 - beta - XML export options

Hello,
I've been testing the xml export option in crvs2010. I can't find the Manage XML Exporting Formats dialog box that is in CR2008 - in this location File - - > Export - - > Manage XML.
Is this dialog box in CRVS2010? If so, where is it? I looked, but can't find it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Tracy,
No need to repost this question. CR Designer has a bunch of functions through menu options that are not available through the API set. They are custom features that are unique only in the Designer and no plans to make then available through code.
As mentioned, you can write your own code to emulate what that function does using your own Export button.
Thank you

Problems in Limiting Export option in Web Analysis shortcut menu options

Hi everyone,
i'm trying to limit the shortcut menù option in Web Analysis studio following the instructions in the WA 9.3.1 user guide: "Limiting Web Analysis Studio Shortcut Menu Options" page 293. Exactly i would hyde the Export to some users (an user with Viewer and Expoler permissions).
The problem is that the solution does not work.
Resuming:
First, I have created the WAMenu.xml file, with restrictions for the roles: Viewer and Explorer (using the same tags of the Sample XML File in the guide)
Second, I have modified the WebAnalysis.properties file removing the # ahead this two lines:
"WAStudioMenuControl= C:/Hyperion/Analyzer/conf/WAMenu.xml
ModuleName=WebAnalysisStudio"
and modified the path with the correct location of the XML file.
At last, i have restart the services regarding Workspace and Web Analysis.
But, it does not work. The user can still see the export options in the shortcut menu..I don't understand what is wrong..
I really hope that someone can help me!!

Hi Iain,
thanks for answering.
Unfortunately it doesn't restrict neither in the workspace nor in the WA studio.
I made a lot of attempts, not only with export but also with other option, and there are no changes!!
Do you remember if you made the same steps descripted above, or there is something that i did not make (or made wrong)??
Cheers,
Angelo

IR export options and embedded HTML

Good day,
Apex 3.2.1.00.12, 9.2.0.8 DB, on AIX 5.3.
I have an IR where in I use html in the SQL that defines it to format certain columns such as the below
"<div style=""overflow:auto;height:50px;"">column value here</div>"I then define the display type as ' Standard Report Column '.
That obviously allows me to have some "formatting" power that the IR does not give by default.
Problem is when I do the export to a CSV I get the html markup included as the value of the column.
Is there a way I can keep my formatting desires and export without the html included in the value ?
Also, can I export the whole result set to CSV, not just whatever I have pagination set to ?
I do NOT have a print server.
Thanks for your time,
CLG

What export option you used.
I am using default export option and it exports all the records on report. Not current page.
Furthermore for your requirment I ahve done lot of test regaring same thing. But I didnt find any solution. So what I did was create my own export function for those reports and then use that.
Thanks
* If this answer is helpfull or correct then please mark it and grant the points.

ReportViewer 2010:how to hide pdf in export option in subreports in reportviewer

Hi,
I am using ReportViewer 2010 and using code (posted below) to hide certain options from export, its working fine for parent report, but when i am clicking on parent report to view child report, then export option in child report is showing all the
items in export option which all are hided in parent report. So please help me out.
private void DisableUnwantedExportFormats()
FieldInfo info;
foreach (RenderingExtension extension in rptviewerByBrandBySentimentAttribute.ServerReport.ListRenderingExtensions())
if (extension.Name != "PDF" && extension.Name != "ASPPT" && extension.Name != "ASPPTX" && extension.Name != "EXCEL" && extension.Name != "MHTML") // only PDF and Excel
- remove the other options
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_isVisible", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
info.SetValue(extension, false);
if (extension.Name == "ASPPT") // change "Excel" name on the list to "Excel 97-2003 Workbook"
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_localizedName", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (info != null) info.SetValue(extension, "PowerPoint 2003");
if (extension.Name == "ASPPTX") // change "Excel" name on the list to "Excel 97-2003 Workbook"
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_localizedName", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (info != null) info.SetValue(extension, "PowerPoint 2007");
neha

Hi,
Thank you for this article.
I am using the localreport ReportViewer 2010 and other code examples weren't working.
Apparently, the m_isVisible field was not available in earlier version of ReportViewer
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_isVisible", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic); info.SetValue(extension, false);
Code that wasn't working:
FieldInfo info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_serverExtension", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance); if (info != null) { object actualExtension = info.GetValue(extension); if (actualExtension != null) { PropertyInfo propInfo = actualExtension.GetType().GetProperty("Visible"); if (propInfo != null && propInfo.CanWrite) { propInfo.SetValue(actualExtension, false, null); } } }
Thanks again, chupaul :)

Convert pdf to word doc-but don't have the export option.

I want to convert a pdf (that I got from an email) into a Word doc so I can edit it the way I want to. However, for some reason now I don't have the 'Export' option in my File drop down list.
Funny thing is, I've converted the document once already and have entirely forgotten how I did it obviously!
I've made so many changes in my first conversion I want to start over.
why don't I have the 'Export' option? Or ... when I do a 'save as' and chose 'word doc' it only does a copy - paste type save - where I can't make any changes. It's like it puts it into a text box or something.
I have MSWord 2010.

Hi Kelly,

When I do the steps below, the Word doc that is saved is like a photo. I am unable to work with the document. Why does it do that? I have converted pdf’s before without that happening but I think I did it on a free 30-day trial of X Pro.
This usually happens when you're dealing with a very poor quality scanned document that doesn't have enough data for the Acrobat OCR engine to actually process.
As for Acrobat 6.0 Pro, I don't believe the Save as Word function was introduced until version 8.0, but it's been a few years and the memory of Acrobat 6 has faded a bit.

Export Options not displaying in Object Style Options panel

Hi,
I'm trying to create an object style for decorative images as artefacts and set that style for export to PDF, but in the Object Style Options panel the Export Options settings (which I've seen before, bottom left of the panel) are not displayed. Can anyone tell me how I can make them visible? I'm on InDesign CS6.
Thanks, Ally

Hi changilainen2,
Yes, we are following Adobe Forum!!!
Thanks for your inputs. Actually while implementing this feature we were bit confused if it is of more importance to have these options in the Object Styles. That's why you are finding it missing from there.
But feedback from you and some other folks, made us realize that we should have it in object styles too.
Thanks we'll try incorporating this in the feature.

I want to save my Bookmarks, but unable to find either Import or Export options, Kindly help

In Earlier version Firefox use to have Import & Export options under File menu, but in the new version 7.0.1, I cannot find Import & Export options, as I was trying to save my Bookmarks. Kindly help.
Thanks & Regards,
Subodh.

Hi Subodh. I have encountered the exact same problem. It seems that the Import & Export options under the File menu are now removed starting from version 7. This leaves another exact (yet longer) way to do this.
Here's the article that explains everything: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Importing%20bookmarks%20and%20other%20data%20from%20other%20browsers?s=import+bookmarks&r=0&as=s
