CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal reports and VS2010

I wanted to ask you whether is it possible in any case to use crystal reports 10/11 with visual studio 2010. Is the only option to upgrade to crystal reports for vs2010?
As I tried both versions I'm getting red cross on all of my crystal reports, and the crystal viewer could not be of course edited from vs2010 because there is no such component in the toolbox.

Hello,
Yes, no other versions of CR are supported in VS 2010 and currently there are no plans to support anything other than CR 2010 in VS 2010. They may work but if any issues we can't escalate them to R&D.
CR4VS2010 is beta, so do not distribute to a production system if you plan to upgrade your app. And it is currently only supported on Clean PC's, no other versions of CR installed.
Thank you
Don

CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal Report Installation problem

Hello,
I have visual studio 2010 professionnal edition (Version 2010 10.0.30319.1RTMrel). (French edition)
I would like to install and use Crystal Report, so:
- I dowloaded the Crystal report setup (cr4vs2010.exe).
- After installing the setup, I want to create my first report in my asp application (Add\New item\Reporting\Crystal report) and each time I do that I am prompted for downloading the crystal report suite.
Help appreciated, thanks.

Hello Stef,
I updated the subject line to indicate you are using Beta.
Currently it's only supported on English builds of VS 2010.

Hi Misha,
Can I ask why you want to install CR for VS 2010, which requires VS 2010 to be installed, silently? It's a plug-in for Visual Studio, it's not the runtime for a deployment package.
If you are asking how to deploy the runtime with your app then search here. Lots of info and links to download the 32 and 64 bit MSI packages.
ALSO - this is still beta... DO not deploy this to a production server. Wait a week or so and the final build will be available for production servers.
Thank you

CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal Reports for VS 2010 in November???

Hey guys,
are you serious??? You told us that the finished version will be released in July!!! We are working with VS 2010 and just because of you guys we are not able to deploy our applications via Click Once. How could it be, that you are that slow? I really have to say, that it was much better, when Crystal Reports was shipped with Visual Studio. Who had the silly idea to change that method?
I think we are not the only company who is waiting for you to at last release the new version and now it''s even later? This is no good avertisment for you and we will change to another reporting as soon as possible...
Thank you for nothing!

Good afternoon.
I can understand the frustration and we definitely realize that our delay is causing some pain for quite a few of our customers and partners. To be blunt, we are just not happy with the size of our runtime size, which is why we have introduced this delay until November. The current runtime size of the release is very high compared to today's runtime, the expectation of the market, and our own standards. As such, we are working to reduce this. In the meantime, we will be deploying a Beta 2 release in August, which will be a full featured release, but will include the larger runtime size. I understand that this is not production grade software as we are labeling it as beta; however, it can be used for developing, testing, and qa'ing your applications. As far as production deployment goes, it will, unfortunately, need to wait for the November release.
I am more than happy to setup a time where we can chat over the phone about the challenges that this is creating for you and your organization. Please feel free to give me a call (678 575 8916).

CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal Reports crashes Visual Studio

I have a problem in VS2010 whenever I attempt to use anything related to Crystal Report files (*.rpt). Attempting to open any rpt file or add one to a project causes VS2010 to crash. I have tried un- and re-installing several times to no effect. Any help would be welcomed.
I'm running:
Windows XP SP3 32-bit
VS2010 Ultimate
I can get the crash to occur in the following scenarios:
Create a new code project. In that project, Add new item... Crystal Report file. The report file will be created and then Visual Studio crashes due to an access violation exception. It generates the following error in the system event log:
Event Type:     Error
Event Source:     Microsoft Visual Studio
Event Category:     None

Next case: Add existing item... an rpt file created by the above process. The file is successfully added to the project. However, opening the file to edit it causes a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error dialog to appear, followed by VS2010 crashing. I managed to pull the following errors out of the process:
Unhandled exception at 0x7c812aeb in devenv.exe: 0xC0020001: The string binding is invalid.

Similar crashes occur when I attempt to upgrade or open any old 2005 reports in 2010.
Thanks.

Hi J,
Our PM just verified what you found also. This is another one of those "dll hell" problems that Microsoft is trying to fix by asking all to put their own dependency runtime into their own app folders.
I don't think Mcafee is the cause. Our IT department push out McAfee as well and I don't have it in the system32 folder so it's likely Adobe installing it into the \system32 folder.
You could try moving it to their app folder so it doesn't break Adobe or submit a ticket with Adobe to not drop that dll into the \system32 folder.
For your info also the dll is a Crypto Package released by RSA, file security.... Part of the new feature of locking the RPT files by encrypting them.
It may not be Adobe doing this either, check the install logs to find out who is placing the dll in the \system32 folder.
Update - I just installed Adobe Reader and it wasn't Adobe Reader installing it so you guys will have to check the install logs and let that 3rd party software company know they need to alter their installer.
At this point we don't need the dump file.
Problem_Report: ADAPT01438407
Thanks again for all your time testing

CRVS2010 beta - Crystal Reports Menu option

Hello,
When viewing this menu from the Main Report Preview tab, there is an option on the Crystal Reports menu called "Crystal Reports Community". The option is not working.
My question is when this option is working, what will it link to?
Thank you
Tracy

Hi Tracy,
Because it's beta none of those links will work until CR is released to the public as a GA build. It will likely be the same as what you see in CR 2008 Start Page, links to get updates, forums, etc....
I'll pass this onto the PM's for CR4VS2010 and if anything is different they add to this post.
Thank you again

CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal Report Viewer 2010

Hi,
I'm using Crystal report 2010 with VS 2010, and i have 2 web projects, the first is the one that my organization works with and the second is a dummy one - this is for test only -, my problem is when dealing with charts or pictures, every thing OK in the second project, but in the first one charts and pictures are displayed very will in crystal report designer, and preview, but nothing is displayed at run time. the environment of the 2 projects are identical (the same referenced DLLs, and from the same location "Local Folder", the same binding method "Objects", the same registered and add "Keys, and Assemblies" in the web.config).
please, does any body has an idea where is the mistaken part, or where I'm i suppose to search about the malfunctioning configuration, or ...... etc.
Thanks a lot.

hi guys
i was comparing the source code of 2 web pages one from each project - the working and malfunction one -, this led me to check Temp folders, and what i found was so strange
first of all, "full control" permission is granted for all possible users, Guest, Anonymous, IIS, and ASPnet user on Temp Folders.
the strange part is as following,
of course there 2 temporary folders for the 2 apps, the one of the working app did not contain any kind of files, on the other hand the one belongs to the malfunction app contain 2 .png files one for the chart, and another one for the picture, in addition, chart image is the same as the one displayed in the preview mode in design time, i mean that the created chart image did not respect report source data - the created one is of a vertical line, but according to supplied date the line should be horizontal, and i insure that data was supplied (from debugging, there are 246 object in the supplied object list, on the other hand if no data was supplied, this should not affect picture display) -, in despite of that nothing is displayed at run time but the red "X" mark.
so I'm wondering, why nothing is displayed in despite of the creation of temp pictures?, and also how the working app displays the correct chart & picture in despite of creation of no templates?
another question, in many forums, and also in the page source there are a mention of "aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/crystalreportviewers14" folder and its existence in the app root, while this folders exists only in the wwwroot folder , and no physical existence for that folder in any of the 2 apps root, specially that I'm running my apps from the Visual Studio Development Server, not from the IIS, so, where can i find this folder, to grant appropriate permissions on it .
i wanted also to inform Don that both apps and their class library projects target complete 3.5 .Net Framework, and also not the client one.
now, I'm in doubt about the creation of a project before and after crystal report 4 visual studio 2010 installation, so I'm about to establish a new web app, and copy all of the malfunction one to avoid this problem, but i hope to know the cause of this problem.
Thanks a lot

CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal Reports System.ArgumentNullException was unhan

I am trying to publish my first Windows WFP application. Everything works fine on my development machine, but when it gets to the point where the Crystal Reports viewer loads the Report Layout, the computer I have installed it on throws a error and stops.
I have defined my report file locations as (I have tried both options, and both work on my development system) :
Dim strReportName As String = "ExceptionRpt"
Dim strReportPath As String = "C:\Users\john\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\StatusReportsCRWPF\StatusReportsCRWPF" & "\ExceptionReports\" & strReportName & ".rpt"
Dim strReportPath As String = "
files\data\john\CrystalRpts\ExceptionReports\" & strReportName & ".rpt"
Dim report As ExcpReport = New ExcpReport
Dim DS As DataSet = New DataSet
Dim strLoadDS As String = "Select * from StatusException"
Dim cmdLoadDS As New SqlCommand(strLoadDS)
Dim dtLoadDS As DataTable = GetDataPL(cmdLoadDS)
DS.Tables.Add(dtLoadDS)
ReportsViewer.ShowRefreshButton = True
ReportsViewer.ViewerCore.DataContext = DS.Tables(0)
(Placed to find the fine that errors out)
MsgBox("Just Before the Crystal Report Viewer Activation " + strReportPath, MsgBoxStyle.Question)
ReportsViewer.ViewerCore.ReportSource = strReportPath
Any help in correcting this problem would be greatly appreciated
Edited by: Ludek Uher on May 28, 2010 2:45 PM

I do not believe you will be able to deploy this app. There is no CR 2010 runtime that would support WPF available. The only runtime is based on CR 2008 redirect (lots of info on that in these forums).

CRVS2010 Beta - Crystal Reports: Mixed Mode Assembly

I am trying to find the way to get my report to load current data (from a sql 2008 table) and display the report. I have tried the following code sets:
Dim DS As New DataSet
' Create a datatable in your dataset. The datatable's name
' must match that in the schema file used by the report.
This One Will show the correct report after the user clicks the refresh report button
Dim cmdStatusRpt As New SqlCommand("SELECT StatusReports.* FROM StatusReports ORDER BY CompName, SortField, EventDate")
Dim dtStatusRpt As DataTable = GetDataPL(cmdStatusRpt)
DS.Tables.Add(dtStatusRpt)
Dim strReportPath As String = "
files
StatusReports\" & strReportName & ".rpt"
If Not IO.File.Exists(strReportPath) Then
    'Throw (New Exception("Unable to locate report file:" & _
    ' vbCrLf & strReportPath))
End If
ReportsViewer.ShowRefreshButton = True
ReportsViewer.ViewerCore.DataContext = DS.Tables(0)   ReportsViewer.ViewerCore.ReportSource = strReportPath
This one Blows up (Exception listing is after the code sample)
Dim strConnection As String = "Provider=SQLNCLI10;Server=PROLAW;Database=Prolaw;Trusted_Connection=yes;"
Dim Connection As New OleDbConnection(strConnection)
Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT StatusReports.* FROM StatusReports ORDER BY CompName, SortField, EventDate"
Dim DA As New OleDbDataAdapter(strSQL, Connection)
Dim DS As New DataSet
' Create a datatable in your dataset. The datatable's name
' must match that in the schema file used by the report.
DA.Fill(DS, "StatusReport")
Dim strReportPath As String = reportPath & "\" & ReportName & ".rpt"
If Not IO.File.Exists(strReportPath) Then
    Throw (New Exception("Unable to locate report file:" & vbCrLf & strReportPath))

Crystal Reports for VS2010 Prerequisites for ClickOnce Deployment

I keep getting this Error when publishing my application with clickonce even though I have Crystal Reports for VS2010 installed: I want the prerequisites to be downloaded from the same location as my app. Publishing fails with the following error.
The install location for prerequisites has not been set to 'component vendor's web site' and the file 'Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\CRRuntime_32bit_13_0.msi' in item 'SAP Crystal Reports Runtime Engine for .NET Framework 4.0' can not be located on disk.

Crystal Reports for VS2010 using a custom SAP ABAP function module data source

I recently worked with Crystal Reports 2011 and was able to connect and retrieve data from our R/3 system via an ABAP function module. While researching other features, I found this version that can be installed into Visual Studio 2010. The parameters are not very user friendly in Crystal Reports so I was hoping to create a custom dialog to collect my report parameters.
Does anyone know if I were to install Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010, would I be able to design a front-end selection screen in a Visual Basic form and then pass the input to through the Crystal Reports connection to my ABAP function module to retrieve the data filtered on the back-end by the selection screen parameters and return the results to be reported in the Crystal Reports output?
I am using Visual Studio 2010 Professional Visual Basic with the .NET Framework 4.0 on 32-bit Windows 7. I was able to connect to our R/3 system in Crystal Reports 2011, so if I were to install Crystal Reports for VS2010, would there be a similar way of connecting to SAP?
Any assistance or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan

Hello Bryan
I don't know for sure, but I doubt this will work in CRVS2010. Only hope is that the utility available for download in this KBA will point you in the right direction.
