Crystal Report Viewer Collapse Unneeded Lines
I have a CR open sales order report grouped by sales order number. Crystal report viewer outlines Sales Order #, customer name and doc total in the master line. Underneath that, it shows multi line items contain in that SO.
I am wondering, is there a way I can collapse the multi line items and only shows the master line item? We need this sometimes to present to management just to show the big picture.
Is it we can add a drill-down event to the crystal report viewer control? Not sure how to accomplish that. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
If the detail information is in the Detail section, you can set the Detail Section to Hide. This will only show the Sales Order information and have the ability to drill down to the Details when you need them.
Good luck,
Brian

Problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on windows application ("specified type is not valid ")
Hi
I am having problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on one of my windows application.
I am not sure how to put the Crystal Report Viewer 11 Control onto the tool box.
I could found a Crystal Report Viewer control on my computer, but it is version 8.5.
I have also found another one which is Called Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, i don't think it is the one I can use. As when I try to load a dummy report on to the Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, It return an error. "specified type is not valid"
Please see the Code sample below.
private sub loadReport()
Dim r as New ReportDocument
'v is the name of the Crystal ActiveX Report Viewer Control
r.Load("C:\Report1.rtp")
v.ReportSource(r) <---It throw error on this line.
End Sub
Could you give me some advice about what have I done wrong, How to check if I have set up the Crystal Report Component correctly in my Visual Studio 2005 Standard edition.
Thanks in advances.
Many thanks
ChiVS 2005 Standard and Express editions do not come with Crystal Reports; only the Professional and higher editions will have CR bundled. However, I believe you can purchase CR XI R2 Developer and it will give you the components you need to create a VS .NET 2005 application using the Standard edition.

Why is Crystal Report Viewer in BO XI 3.1 not printing correctly?
I have a W2 report that prints consistently directly from Crystal 2008 but when the report is imported into BO XI 3.1, the Crystal Report Viewer doesn't consistently print the report layout correcty (shifting data down by a line or so on the W2 form). Any thoughts?
I'm inclined to agree with Ted as you logging into Crystal Reports designer, and the user that the Business Objects Enterprise services are running under are likely different users and are trying to use different printer drivers.
Since this is happening in Infoview, it would be best to ask the enterprise section of the forums and not the sdk forums. -
Crystal report Viewer for 8.5 reports
We are using an older version of Crystal reports (8.5) and use an application called RePortal (that use Crystal Enterprise) to view the reports through out the building. We recently had a report that was created and we are getting an error:
Error encountered by Crystal PageServer
Unable to connect: incorrect table location. File Worksheet.rpt. On Cache/Page Server:
I tried a few solutions I found on line, but that didn't work.
My thought was to bypass and download the free Crystal Report viewer, but the one I found was only compatible with Reports written in 9 or higher.
Does anyone know how to resolve the error above or we I can find an older version of Viewer to work on 8.5Hi
Now am using Crystal Report 8.5 with Visual Basic 6.0
i want to use latest of crystal report with Visual basic 6.0
can anyone suggest which version i have to use
it must be compatible with Visual Basic 6.0

Crystal Reports Viewer Control - Visual Studio 2008 WEB Application
My question is this: Has ANYONE on this planet been able to get the ASP .NET CR Viewer control to actually work?
Why does this editor NOT recognize End-of-line or CR characters or any whitespace??
I have developed a Crystal Reports "Viewer" web application in VS2008 using C#.
It's a simple app, in that it's a single page with a treeview control (containing the grouped names of the reports to which the user has access) and the CR Viewer control.
The report files live on a network share, and permissions to them is controlled via a SQL Server database, which, for each report, stores the UserID and Logion for the oracle database, as well as any required parameter values.
The reports themselves are all hititng an Oracle 10g database.
I managed to do this in a Windows desktop applcation using Visual Studio 2005 and VB .net, but now, upon trying to make this a web application in VS2008, I have completely failed. The application works when run locally, but when deployed to the web server, I experience database login prompts when I should not, (the dreaded "Report requires further information" message) even thought the setdatabaselogin has already been set. I have tried saving the reportdocument in viewstate and re-assigning the viewer Datasource property to it, that also fails. However, it only does it on some reports, and not others. (admittedly, the reports may have been created using different CR versions)
The viewer also displays data it should not be displaying when I attempt to scroll, when I do manage to get a report to run.
I am setting parameters dynamically at run time, whose values are stored in the SQL database.
Code Sample:
protected void ShowReport(int ReportID)
SQLDataPortal2005.Common sql = new SQLDataPortal2005.Common();
Hashtable outParms = new Hashtable();
string sAccess;
IDataReader dr;
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rptDocument = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal p = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal as System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal;
sAccess = p.Identity.Name;
int j = 0;
int i = -1;
if (!IsAdmin())
sql.ExecNonQuery("CrystalReports", outParms, "proc_CRM_Check_Permissions", sAccess, Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
if (outParms["@Allow"].ToString() != "True")
Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx"); // redirect to error page
string sPath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["WareHouse"].ToString();
sPath = sPath + TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text.Trim() + ".rpt";
rptDocument.Load(sPath);
dr = sql.GetDataReader("CrystalReports", "proc_CRM_Get_Report", Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
while (dr.Read() == true)
j += 1;
if (j < 2)
rptDocument.SetDatabaseLogon(dr["DB_Login"].ToString(), dr["DB_Pwd"].ToString(), "PLAW", "LAWDB", true);
pList = dr["ParmList"].ToString().Split(',');
dr.Close();
dr.Dispose();
if (pList.Length > 0 && pList[0].ToString().Trim() != "")
foreach (CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterField x in rptDocument.ParameterFields)
i++;
switch (x.ParameterValueType)
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.BooleanParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToBoolean(pList<i>));
break;
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.CurrencyParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDouble(pList<i>));
break;
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.DateParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList<i>));
break;
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.DateTimeParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList<i>));
break;
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.NumberParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToInt32(pList<i>));
break;
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.StringParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToString(pList<i>));
break;
case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.TimeParameter:
rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList<i>));
break;
Session["CReport"] = rptDocument;
CRV1.ReportSource = rptDocument;
CRV1.DisplayGroupTree = false;
CRV1.HasRefreshButton = true;
CRV1.ShowFirstPage();
Is there a better/different way of accomplishing this very simply process? All I need this application to do is to view a report, while setting it's parmeters (if required) dynamically at run time. I don't EVER want the user to be prompted for DB LOGIN INFO.

Edited by: RichardK on May 10, 2010 4:23 PMTo answer you question; Yes, I suspect that most of the users in this community have managed to successfully create web apps. And this is the tiniest of sampling of the developers out there...
A few suggestions;
1) Keep the posts to under 1200 characters. Otherwise, the formatting is lost which makes it difficult to read.
2) Try out a few sample apps from here:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
Suggest; csharp_web_simplelogonengine.zip, csharp_web_simplelogonviewer.zip and csharp_web_subreport_logon.zip.
3) Start simple; one table, one field, no subreports. Hard code the database logon parameters. Convince your self that this does work. Increase the complexity - add fields, tables, subreports. Do not mix connection methods (e.g.; if ODBC for main, than ODBC for sub is a good idea, though not a requirement).
4) See the article [Troubleshooting Guide to Database Connectivity Issues with Crystal Reports in Visual Studio .NET Applications|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b0225775-88c4-2c10-bd80-8298769293de].

Crystal Report Viewer Microsoft JScript runtime error
When I use the crystal viewer control to render a report on the screen I receive the following error message:
Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support property or method 'isObject' ... and the following line is hilighted:
if(!bobj.isObject(json)).
Here is the markup for the test page I'm using
{<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<CR:CrystalReportViewer ID="CrystalReportViewer1" runat="server"
AutoDataBind="true" ReportSourceID="crSource" />
<CR:CrystalReportSource ID="crSource" runat="server">
</CR:CrystalReportSource>
</form>}
I believe I set all info on crSource correctly (report path etc ...) because If I remove the Crystal reports viewer from the page and just use the crsource (i.e crptSource.ReportDocument.ExportToHttpResponse ...) I can export the report OK. Its only when I have the crViewer on the page Is when I recieve this error.

I am using crystal reports 2008, visual studio 2008, windows 7 pro, MS Sql Server 2005, IE9
I uninstalled crystal reports, and reinstalled crystal reports 2008 sp3 (Full build) - No help
When I goto help about visual studio it says crystal reports 2008 (No specific version info)
Assembly cache on the machine has
12.0.2000.0 and 12.0.1100.00 as the vast majority ... a few (Design and Engine) have older 10.5.3700 and so forth (There are so many)
I found this problem on the web with different solutions involving frame work folder or not having IIS setup to server the crystal reports viewer ... this is happening to me on my local development machine using the ASP.Net Develepoment server included with VS2008 ..
Any help you could give me would greatly be appreciated
Thanks in advance

Get blank report in Crystal Report Viewer when exporting to PDF
I have an application that creates reports in the CrystalReportViewer while at the same time exports a PDF of that report. I am having a problem in which
performing the export causes the report in the ReportViewer and the PDF report to be blank. They have the header and column labels but no data. If I
comment out the Me.Export(reportExportOptions) line at the end of the exportPDFReport method the report in the ReportViewer works fine, displaying
data on the report.
I have other forms that perfrom this same type of function on different reports and work fine. In fact they use the same exportPDFReport method. This leads
me to believe that a difference in the reports may be causing the problem. But I can't figure out why.
I am using .net 3.5 with Crystal Reports 2008 (CR2008) full edition in Visual Studio 2008. Although the reports that work were probably created using
VS 2005 and the VS 2005 edition of Crystal, and which have since been updated to CR2008.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you resolve it?
Thanks for any help!

Seems I had at one time hard coded a record selection statement that I forgot to remove which caused the report to be blank. That solved my problem, but there still seems to be an issue in that the Crystal Report Viewer performed differently when I tried to export to PDF (no records displayed) then when I didn't (records displayed).

Problem with vertical text in crystal report viewer
Hi,
I am displaying vertical text in crystal report designer and deploying the report in crystal reports server 2008. The deployed report is being displayed using JAVA in crystal report viewer control.
Problem: Vertical text header is getting collapsed wth other vertical headers.
Please help on this.
Thanks,Hi Vijay,
I found out another method of retaining all the chart formatting that is done in the preview pane.
Once you have done all the changes then you will find interestingly there is a chart menu option that appears in the tool bar. Once you click on it there is an option "Apply Changes to All Charts".
Select that option, close your preview. Open it once again and you will find that all the settings are still there and the Web Viewer is able to display them properly.
I think that I resolved this.

Crystal Report Viewer and border problems
Post Author: catalinandrei00
CA Forum: Deployment
Hello there, I've created an report and I've added borders for the fields in the report (Right click on the field > Format Object -> Border -> Choose for the 4 margins the line-style single). The report is correctly exported to different formats (.doc, .pdf, .xls). My problem is that when I display the report in an ASP.NET 2.0 page using an Crystal Report Viewer the report is correctly shown but the borders don't appear.My question is why the borders don't appear in the Crystal Report Viewer? Thanks for helping for solving this issue. It's very important.CatalinHello catalinandrei00
I have the exact opposite problem as yours.
I am using integrated crystal reports with Visual Studio 2005 and I have put a Crystal Viewer on a web page.
First I also had the same problem like yours and then in one of the post i found a solution for this. Hope it will work for you too. here it is :-
Just remove the following line from your aspx page.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
Now regarding my problem. My problems is that now i can view the borders and everything correctly in the viewer but when i try to print the report it automatically exports to Adobe first and BAM!!! the format disappears. Though if i export to word Doc format it export perfectly fine with all the borders and everything
I hope some other reader will come to my rescue...pls HELP. -
Crystal Reports Viewer 11.5 fails in Vista
We are using the Crystal Reports Viewer (crviewer.dll) version 11.5.10.1263. It works fine in XP but fails with the following error in Vista:
A first chance exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in sprdlgs2.dll
An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in sprdlgs2.dll
Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
Sprdlgs2.dll is the DLL that contains the dialog in which the viewer resides. I know that crviewer.dll is registered correctly.
Our product is a C++ MFC multi-document application migrated from Visual Studio 6.0 to the .NET Framework 2.0 with the managed code flag (/clr) on.
Any help would be appreciated.Hi Peter,
As Jason indicated the RDC has not been tested with Vista nor any version of .NET IDE. RDC is COM and Microsoft is moving away from COM and to their Framework which as you said you must also do as we must. Even though MS upgrades their OS's we can't follow for old technolgies, it just becomes too much coding and vertually becomes a new version of CR with the amount of work required. To move CR forward we try to release patches for the current versions that are 100% backward compatable with the current OS's. XI R2 with SP2 now supports Vista through a service patch.
The RDC has not been updated since Version 9 at that time Windows XP and 2000 were the only OS's available and they fully supported COM. It simply becomes to costly to make everything backward compatable. For developers like yourself you can appriciate this, do you still support Windows 3.1? At some point everyone has to cut off backward compatablity.
Moving forward because .NET 2008 is also new, even XI R2 has problems with it, this is due to MS updating their 1.1 Framework to 2.0 and 3.5. they changed things which we had specific dependencies on so now we have to also change, this all takes time to implement.
So this becomes a "best effort support" case since you are doing this on an unsupported platform. I did not see any results of your testing in debug mode on Vista? Install .NET 2008 on a Vista 32 PC and run your app in debug mode, if you use Vista 64 set your compiler to use x86 only. I believe your dll's are wrappers around the crviewer.dll and is likely either a permission issue with our COM(ActiveX) dll's or your dll's. Using regedt32.exe will give you the ability also to change permissions on the viewer and possibly your dll. It may be that Windows is not allowing your exe to access your wrapper as the error suggests in your original post.
Bottom line is, you should upgrade your app to use the .NET assemblies and stop using the RDC. There are lots of samples and fairly easy to migrate what your RDC app is doing to .NET code. Coding won't be one to one but the steps to execute a report and view are the same.
Thanks again

I have Crystall Reports 8.5 and 11. Do i need to upgrade them to 12 when using Crystal Report Viewer 12, or Crystal Report Viewer 12 can run older versions without any problems?
Hi,
Crystal reports viewer 12 can open any .rpt files. It is a off line viewer, it will not have any refreshing capabilities.

Crystal Report Viewer changes font
Hello,
I am having an issue with Crystal Report Viewer NOT displaying the correct fonts. Below are the steps to recreate the issue
1) Created a Blank Crystal Report using Crystal Report 2008.
2) Added a few fields in them and selected the following font for all the fields :Courier 10 cpi
3) Saved the report with data.
4) Viewed the report using Crystal Report Viewer 2008.
5) The fields displayed in this Report Viewer is NOT Courier 10 cpi.
Please tell if there is a fix for this problem. Please Note that using a different font is NOT an option since I will be printing the report to a Dot Matrix printer. Using a different font will slow down the printing speed.
Thanks
KrishnanHi Carl,
There is a font named Courier 10,12,15(VGA res) installed on the machine.
Also the Courier 10 cpi is selected on all fields on the report. But when I view the report from CR viewer, it changes to a different font.
Also the report does not print properly to the dot matrix printer. The speed of the report is very slow and the page alignment is off. The first 2 lines of the 2nd page are printed at the end of the first page. The first 4 lines of the 3rd page prints at the end of the 3rd page and it keeps getting worse by each page.

How to set printersettings for the crystal report viewer in SAP BI dynamically
Hello
I have set the URL method for my crystal report and with parameter passing as shown below, it was displaying the crystal report viewer by connecting to the SAP BI 4.0 server with this method.
http://cr:port/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=CRLabelParam&sType=rpt&lsSnPrinted=0&lsSsTestProjectNr=1
This URL will be called from Web application by different users, i would like to set the printer settings differently for different users for this crystal report viewer how shall i need to set the printer options?
shall i need to set the printer settings programatically for each user. Please advise me how do i need to proceed.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajeswari.There are no BI / CR APIs that would do this for you. The way I see it, you'll have to have your own print button and populate it with the correct printer information for each user as they request the report. Of course, alternatively, use the viewer printer button and get the users to choose the correct printer.

Crystal Report Viewer 2008, postback causes a weird QueryString for dates
HI,
I'm having a weird problem that was masked with the error "".
What is happening to me is that i have an ASPX page where the QueryString passed in is used as parameters to the report (straightforward). When the page first loads, this is all fine the QuerySTring is properly parsed and the report is properly displayed. Now, the problem comes when i click on the PRINT Button it performs a postback, and during that postback the querystring is read so that it can rebuild the report on the postback. (In previous versions of crystal, this has always worked). The issue here is that the version 12 of the report viewer here now appears to also append some information to the query string that was not previously there (like this: ServletTask=Print&cmd=get_pg&page=1) So the problem here for me is this is what my original QueryString looks like:
tokenid=b2817081-6b52-43c7-8e2c-d6209af2ed98&Type=Appointment&Val=12%3b1%3b1%3b06%2f10%2f2000
THat query string is generated by the following code (pre-encoded)
"PrintPage.aspx?tokenid=" & Guid.NewGuid.ToString & "&Type=Appointment&Val=" & "12" & ";" & "1" & ";" & "1" & ";" & "1/1/2000" (NOTE the date here, i'll get to that in a second)
Then, what the problem is on the postback the Query String looks like this:
tokenid=2a4f42de-bd90-48b5-ac82-bd34b503afd3&Type=Appointment&Type=Appointment&Val=12%3b1%3b1%3b1%2f1%2fPrintPage.aspx%3ftokenid%3d2a4f42de-bd90-48b5-ac82-bd34b503afd3&Val=12%3b1%3b1%3b1%2f1%2f2000&ServletTask=Print&cmd=get_pg&page=1
As you can see here it's all messed up.
So, what i found here is that the underlying cause is that we are passing a "date" in the original QueryString and it seems on the postback the Crystal Reports Viewer is having some issue with that and basically messes up the query string...
I have Crystal Reports 2008/SP3 installed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
ThanksCleaning up these forums I came across this unanswered thread.
Very weird behavior that I have seen maybe 3 or 4 years ago - I think it was with opendocument.aspx...
In this case, we appear to be re-adding the querystring with the aspx name and question mark (u2026.parentagesu2026). Having two question marks (%3f) is essentially a malformed URL since this indicates where the querystring starts.
The duplicate querystring may have been a coding error(?) where it gets added again on a postback.
Were you able to resolve the issue?
