Manual installation
To manually install the ActiveX Viewer on the client computer:
1. Copy the ActiveXViewer.cab file from the server to the client computer, and extract its contents to a temporary folder.
2. Move the files Crviewer.dll, Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll to the System32 folder. Keep this folder visible.
3. On the Start menu, click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
4. In the Open box, type âu20ACu0153regsvr32âu20AC and then drag and drop the Crviewer.dll file icon from the System32 folder onto the Run dialog box.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the files Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll.
But I haven't tried it myself yet. I have so much crystal stuff on my PC. I'm going to set up a virtual PC that has never had crystal and see if it works.

Crystal Reports Web Viewer Control Error
I have a very odd problem that I am trying to solve. I was able to dumb the problem down to the Crystal Report Viewer control. I am using the control in an web user control and using that control in a web page. The problem is that when I use the control inside a web user control I get the following error:
A string is required here. Details: errorKind Error in File Client_Info {D911348D-2CAA-49F8-B77D-1288E7D5ABA2}.rpt: Error in formula Project_Labor_Multiplier: 'if ' A string is required here. Details: errorKind
However, when I use the control in the page itself I do not get that error. I have tested the report via the design/preview in the VS IDE and it works fine. I have about 30 reports and they all fail like this if they have a formula. If they do not have a formula, they work fine. They do not fail on my personal development machine, but they do fail on our test server. So this is VERY hard to identify and fix.
All that I know is that the formula's are causing this. They do not occur on my development machine (win7 64-bit) and they do occur on the the test server (winServer 64-bit)... but NOT when I put the Report Viewer control directly in a page and not in a user control.
Odd stuff. Not sure what is going on here. Why would nesting the viewer control in a web user control cause this? This was migrated from an application written in 2005. So maybe the RPT files from 2005 are causing this?
Any thoughts as to what might cause such an odd effect on Windows Server?
Any suggestions or thoughts would be very much appreciated. This one has me stumped.
Best regards,
JonHello Jon
Some thoughts on the issue:
The error is thrown with a 64 bit runtime, but not 32bit. Iu2019m guessing that on your development computer, you may be testing \ running from the .NET IDE. E.g.; Cassini, which runs in 32bit process. On the server we're running in a 64bit process.
Since it is a formula throwing the error, I wonder if you are using any Crystal Reports User Function Libraries (UFL)? If these are compiled as 32 bit, they will fail when run in a 64 bit process. Or, these libraries must be deployed in addition to the normal CR runtime. Failing that will also cause formula errors.
Are you able to run this app from IIS on your development computer as a 64 bit process (e.g.; HTTP, not Cassini or file system)?

Parenthesis in a parameter throws error in Crystal Reports Web Viewer.
The application that I am working on is passing a parameter which contains user data like section numbers....
So when we pass the value 123.1(a) , here what is happening behind the scene of CR viewer
webSource0.AddParameter "promptex-NAMEOFPARAMETER", "123.1%28a%29"
and it throws up the following error
"The syntax of the value for prompt 'NAMEOFPARAMETER' is incorrect. Please correct the syntax and try again"
I have no idea why it is throwing up this errror.... and we cannot avoid parenthesis.
It works without any error in the actual crystal report developer.
Is this some kind of bug or is there any workaround for this.
Version that I have:
Crystal Report web Viewer Control 11.5
Crystal Developer 11.0.0.1282
Thank you,
XavierI figured out the answer. It was the ASCII notation for double qoutes which was confusing crystal.
%22 is the ASCII for ", but it is then converted to %2522 which confuses crystal
so I used HTML notation for double quote instead of %22 and is converted to %22 , and it works fine.
Thanks for the help anyways

Error from the seagate Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer
Hi guys,
I get the following message when I running a report application based on Web. The Message is as following:
The Error Message was Error detected by database DLL from Seagate Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer
Internet Explorer has encountered a problem wiht an add-on and needs to close.
the following add-on is running when this problem occured
Add-on Name: CRview.dll
Company Name: Crystal Decision, Inc
Description: Crystal Viewer for ActiveX
I think the crystal is old version , the IE is version 7
Thank you very much
ClaraOK, an upgrade of Oracle causes Crystal Reports to throw "Error detected by database DLL". It may very well be that version 8 report will not be able to run that version of Oracle. E.g.; version 8 of CR will not run Oracle 10 g for sure...
Something to look at; can you run the report in the CR 8 designer when connecting to that updated version of Oracle?
You'll have to locate the platforms.txt file for CR 8 and see what version of Oracle it supported. I do not have a link or even an idea of where that may be as CR 8 has been out of support for soooo long.

If you have to Set Authorisation for user allready then follow this steps.
1.Restore Database as Test Company.
2.Export Report From Live Company.
3.Import this Report in Test Company as different name.
4.Export Report from Test Company have you Imported as deifferent name.
5.Again Import this Report in Live company as different name
I don't know what's the logic behind it.

Seagate Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer error '80043ac4'
Website slows down when users are running reports. Users start getting errors when running any crystal report. After sometime main page itself stops loading and only static html is visible. Following is one of the errors users see:
Seagate Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer error '80043ac4'
Invalid directory.

Other errors seen on reporting site at that time are

A trappable error (C00000005) occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running.
authentication and network errors.
Rebooting the Web Server temporarily fixes the issue however the error recurs again after a day or two. We are seeing this problem in both our PROD and DR server. There was no change done to either of these boxes recently.
Also at this pint IIS was crashing. Microsoft Support analyzed the crash dumps created from IIS and came up with the following:
"All the memory dumps captured showed the same DLL that was accessing corrupted memory. This same DLL would also be the one that had originally written to those addresses. The DLL was craxdrt.dll from Crystal Reports 8.0 ActiveX Designer, which was version 8.0.1.0 from 1/28/2000. This DLL should be updated to see if this issue has already been fixed. Other options are to recycle IIS more frequently and move to a new version of Crystal Reports."
Here is a detailed analysis from Microsoft Support:
The issue appears to be heap corruption. Normally these are difficult to troubleshoot, however, in this case every memory dump that I looked at had the same component involved.

Barcode not displaying/printing in Crystal Report java viewer
We have written a Crystal report (in Developer XI release 2 with service pack 4 installed) which produces barcode labels. The barcodes are Code 39 barcodes and are generated by printing the string \*data_field\* in a Code 39 barcode font. The asterisk is the character used for the Code 39 start/stop sequence in the barcode font.
In Developer everything works fine and prints out and scans correctly. When we make the report available to our end users in the Crystal Reports java viewer all we get where the barcode should appear is white space on screen or when we print. (The rest of the report behaves correctly).
We have tried a few things and have found that if both asterisks or the starting or ending asterisk is left in a different font (i.e. not the barcode font) then the rest of the string displays and prints in the barcode font. (unfortunately without bot asterisks you don't get a scanable barcode).
Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this?
(In case it might be relevant the barcode font we are using is this one: http://www.barcodesinc.com/free-barcode-font/)
Thanks
TrevorHello Ludek,
I have found that the issue is caused by the bold attributes of my field.
You can try the following and you should encounter the same issue:
- Create a Report
- Create a formula with many characters
- Put you field in Times New Roman bold 8.
The following Font Size in Times New Roman are in issue: 5 u2013 8 u2013 11- 14
The following Font Size in Arial are in issue: 8 u2013 11 u2013 12 u2013 14
Thank you.

Crystal Reports 2008 viewer, print function, Comunication error
I installed cr2008 on a web server and isntalled sp0
if I bring up a reprot in smartviewer from a client it works and I can print
once I installed sp1, sp2 and or sp3 for crystal reports 2008 the print button in crystal reports viewer gives an error when I click the print button.
If I remove and re-isntall cr2008 and just installed sp0 the print button works again
Is there a fix to make the print button work in crystal reports smart viewer once sp1 or above have been installed
thank you
tedTranslating the error message on bablefish I get:
Mistake with the store of the data bank information. Mistake in the file Report {C6512421-348A-4621-B1ED-895D28646A0A} .rpt
Which I'm sure is not 100% accurate, but it gives a good hint. As well, because of this:
"Do I need to install an additional / diffrent runtime than 2008 Runtime"
I wonder how you installed the CR 12 runtime on that computer? For more info on CR runtimes, see [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] wiki.
If my suggestion above does not help, make sure the Win\temp directory can be accessed buy the application. Crystal Reports runtime needs to write and read files from the temp directory.

Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer Failed to open document
Yesterday I created a report in Visual Studio 2008 with about 20 subreports, each subreport containing a single aggregate query (i.e count or sum). I then saved the report file. Hours later when I attempted to reopen the report in Visual Studio I recived the message box "Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer Failed to open document". The report file was completely unusable - it could not be opened for editting.
Today I repeated the process twice (once ith multiple subreports and once with all aggregate queries combined in a single subreport), only to have the new report files become unusable with the same error message. I am completely shocked at this behaviour from Crystal Reports. I have now spent 10+ hours with no usable report. I realy need a fix for this ASAP!!! Any suggestions would be greatlhy appreciated.Hi Jeff,
Just wanted to confirm you were on SP1.
I've found that these types of error are usually due to corrupt system files or sometimes even Anti-virus software denying access. If there is no error it's not CR corrupting the file.
Look in your AV logs to see if it's logging anything.
Another possibility is with MS pushing out patches they can also cause problems. I've see them change permissions on our dependencies that can cause problems.
Sorry I can't be specific but without seeing your report or any details you'll have to determine at which step in the report it stops working.
Can you save any reports now?
Steps to debug, create a new report with no subreports and save it. Then re-open, if that works then start adding one subreport and then save/open. It may be something related to either the subreports or the number of subreports.
You could try doing a repair install of VS and SP1.
Was this working at one time or is this something new, do you have other reports that are similar that have problems?
You need to debug the report and find out what is causing it to be corrupted. Try adding the 20th subreport and then delete it also.

Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer Design and Runtime Library 11.5
Hai to all,
I'm new in crystal report 11.5, my task is desig time i just create a blank report during runtime programaticaly create Fieldobject,Blob object and so on, i came to know this is the right (Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer Design and Runtime Library 11.5) dll but, i dont know how to write the code.

Softwares am using:
Visual studio 2005, asp.net 2.0, SQL server 2005 and crystal report 11.5
Edited by: winseelan j on Aug 21, 2008 4:03 PMHello,
You are using the wrong SDK in this case. You cannot use ADO.NET (crdb_adoplus.dll) with the RDC. It would not recognise it. RDC only supports classic ADO (crdb_oledb.dll). Report Creation APi and the RDC was designed for Visual Basic 6.0.
To do what you are trying to do you would have to use the Report Application Server (RAS) in .NET to create your reports.
I recommend starting by creating a simple application with the report created in the Crystal Report designer using ADO.NET(XML) driver and Visual Studio .NET code to pass the dataset at runtime so you are familiar with the code and properties before trying to create the full report in code with RAS.
You will find more information and samples in the Developer's Library:
http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/devsuite.htm
The samples are at:
http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/en/CrystalReports_dotNET_SDK/sampleList.htm
Look for "VB_Web_Data_DataSets".
If you create a dataset you want in Visual Studio .NET, you can write it to XML or and XML Schema and use that to create the report.
'From a dataset, create an XML file to use creating a new report
'using the full path to the .xml file, include the schema
dataSet.WriteXml("C:\Temp\myReportData.xml", XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema)
'Or create a schema to use building a report
dataSet.WriteXmlSchema("C:\Temp\myReportData.xsd")
Once you have the report format the way you want it, you can use the Report Application Server Samples from the Developer's Help to give you direction in building your report at runtime:

Export from Crystal Reports 2008 viewer fails if run on separate thread
I have a windows desktop application written in Visual Basic using Visual Studio 2008. I have installed and am trying Crystal Reports 2008 to run a report. Everything seems to work well except that when I preview a report (using the viewer control) and click the export button found in the upper left corner of that control, I get the following message:
Error 5: Current thread must be set to single thread apartment (STA) mode before OLE calls can be made. Ensure that your Main function has STAThreadAttribute marked on it. This exception is only raised if a debugger is attached to the process.
I am a little confused on what to do exactly. Is the problem because I am running in the Visual Studio 2008 IDE? It says this exception is only raise if a debugger is attached to the process. No, I tried running it outside the IDE. The exception wasn't generated but the application hung when the button was clicked.
It says the current thread must be set to single thread apartment (STA) mode. If the report is run on its own thread, is the "current" thread the thread the report is running on or is the main application's UI thread? I don't think I want to set my main application to single thread apartment mode because it is a multi-threaded application (although I really don't know for sure because I am new to multi-threaded programming).
My objective is to allow reports to run asynchronously so that the user can do other things while it is being generated. Here is the code I use to do this:
' Previews the report using a new thread (asynchronously)
Public Sub PreviewReportAsynch(ByVal sourceDatabase As clsMainApplicationDatabase)
Dim backgroundProcess As System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker
' Start a new thread to run this report.
backgroundProcess = New System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker
Using (backgroundProcess)
' Wire the function we want to run to the 'do work' event.
AddHandler backgroundProcess.DoWork, AddressOf PreviewReportAsynch_Start
' Kick off the report asynchronously and return control to the calling process
backgroundProcess.RunWorkerAsync(sourceDatabase)
End Using
End Sub
Private Sub PreviewReportAsynch_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs)
' The source database needed to call preview report was passed as the only argument
Call PreviewReport(CType(e.Argument, clsMainApplicationDatabase))
End Sub
' Previews the report. From the preview window, the user can print it.
Public Function PreviewReport(ByVal sourceDatabase As clsMainApplicationDatabase) As FunctionEndedResult
Dim errorBoxTitle As String
Dim frmPreview As frmReportPreview
' Setup error handling
errorBoxTitle = "Preview " & Name & " Report"
PreviewReport = FunctionEndedResult.FAILURE
On Error GoTo PreviewError
' Set up the crxReport object
If InitializeReportProcess(sourceDatabase) <> FunctionEndedResult.SUCCESS Then
GoTo PreviewExit
End If
' Use the preview form to preview the report
frmPreview = New frmReportPreview
frmPreview.Report = crxReport
frmPreview.ShowDialog()
' Save any settings that should persist from one run to the next
Call SavePersistentSettings()
' If we got this far everything is OK.
PreviewReport = FunctionEndedResult.SUCCESS
PreviewExit:
' Do any cleanup work
Call CleanupReportProcess(sourceDatabase)
Exit Function
PreviewError:
' Report error then exit gracefully
ErrorBox(errorBoxTitle)
Resume PreviewExit
End Function
The variable crxReport is of type ReportDocument and the windows form called 'frmPreview' has only 1 control, the crystal reports viewer.
The print button on the viewer works fine. Just the export button is failing. Any ideas?Hi Trevor.
Thank you for the reply. The report document is create on the main UI thread of my application. The preview form is created and destroyed on the separate thread. For reasons I won't get into, restructuring the code to move all the initialization stuff inside the preview form is not an option (OK, if you a really curious, I don't always preview a report, sometimes I print and/or export it directly which means the preview form isn't used).
What I learned through some other research is that there are some things (like COM calls and evidently some OLE automation stuff) that cannot be run on a thread that uses the MTA threading model. The export button probably uses some of this technology, thus the message stating that an STA threading model is required. I restructured the code as follows to accomodate this requirement. Here is a sample:
' Previews the report using a new thread (asynchronously)
Public Sub PreviewReportAsynch(ByVal sourceDatabase As clsMainApplicationDatabase)
Dim staThread As System.Threading.Thread
' Start the preview report function on a new thread
staThread = New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf PreviewReportAsynchStep1)
staThread.SetApartmentState(System.Threading.ApartmentState.MTA)
staThread.Start(sourceDatabase)
End Sub
Private Sub PreviewReportAsynchStep1(ByVal sourceDatabase As Object)
Dim staThread As System.Threading.Thread
' Initialize report preview. This includes staging any data and configuring the
' crystal report document object for use by the crystal report viewer control.
If InitializeReportProcess(DirectCast(sourceDatabase, clsMainApplicationDatabase)) = FunctionEndedResult.SUCCESS Then
' Show the report to the user. This must be done on an STA thread so we will
' start another of that type. See description of PreviewReportAsynchStep2()
staThread = New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf PreviewReportAsynchStep2)
staThread.SetApartmentState(System.Threading.ApartmentState.STA)
staThread.Start(mcrxReport)
' Wait for step 2 to finish. This blocks the current thread, but this thread
' isn't the main UI thread and this thread has no UI anymore (the progress
' form was closed) so it won't matter that is it blocked.
staThread.Join()
' Save any settings that should persist from one successful run to the next
Call SavePersistentSettings()
End If
' Release the crystal report
Call CleanupReportProcess(DirectCast(sourceDatabase, clsMainApplicationDatabase))
End Sub
' The preview form must be launched on a thread that use the single-threaded apartment (STA) model.
' Threads use the multi-threaded apartment (MTA) model by default. This is necessary to make the
' export and print buttons on the preview form work. They do not work when running on a
' thread using MTA.
Public Sub PreviewReportAsynchStep2(ByVal crxInitializedReport As Object)
Dim frmPreview As frmReportPreview
' Use the preview form to preview the report. The preview form contains the crystal reports viewer control.
frmPreview = New frmReportPreview
frmPreview.Report = DirectCast(crxInitializedReport, ReportDocument)
frmPreview.ShowDialog()
End Sub
Thanks for your help!

CRYSTAL XIR2 ActiveX viewer Freezed
Post Author: [email protected]
CA Forum: Other
Hi,
I integrated the CRViewer in my C++ application. I try to display report with field parameters (static and dynamic). Sometime all works fine during a long period, the parameter popup windows is displayed, I set the field parameters and then the report is displayed. But, sometimes the activeX is freezed and the popup windows doesn't appear. I have to stop the application and I couldn't display the report during a long period. I tested differents reports when the activex is in a freezed period, and I found that the activeX displays reports if there is no field parameters (there is no popup windows).
I don't understand why the viewer works fine during a long period (more than a week) and then it doesn't work during many day. I don't change anything in my source code but the reports without field parameters are always displayed correctly.
thanks in advance.

To manually install the ActiveX Viewer on the client computer:
1. Copy the ActiveXViewer.cab file from the server to the client computer, and extract its contents to a temporary folder.
2. Move the files Crviewer.dll, Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll to the System32 folder. Keep this folder visible.
3. On the Start menu, click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
4. In the Open box, type âu20ACu0153regsvr32âu20AC and then drag and drop the Crviewer.dll file icon from the System32 folder onto the Run dialog box.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the files Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll.
But I haven't tried it myself yet. I have so much crystal stuff on my PC. I'm going to set up a virtual PC that has never had crystal and see if it works. -
Crystal 11 ActiveX viewer - text displays Cryptic
Post Author: vhensler
CA Forum: General
Hello,I have an issue that only happens to a handful users. When they view a crystal report online via the ActiveX viewer the text displays in a cryptic type language. It doesn't appear to be a specific language that I can tell. It also prints in the same cryptic language as well. I had them uninstall the viewer and reinstall it, which did not work. The one user that has the issue is running Windows XP SP2, and running IE 6, the same as my machine, but mine works. Has anyone else had this type of issue? Any ideas as to what could be causing it?Thanks,VancePost Author: vhensler
