Crystal report viewer suppressing pages

I have a crystal 8.5 report that is group by:
- report type
   - name
     - contract number
       -date
detail
    -date footer (suppressed)
   - contract footer
- name footer (suppressed)
- report type footer (suppressed)
for the contract number group i have the 'keep group together' checked in the change group options box.
the detail lines print only when report type = 1 or 6 and the contrct footer only prints when report type <> 1 and <> 6, when the detail is printing, everything looks great, but when the detail doesn't print and just the contract footer prints that's where I have a problem.
when the report is first displayed in the viewer and i start on the last page of the report and page back i can see all my data, but when i page forward from page 1, i'm missing a couple of pages after the detail stops printing and only the contract footer data should print.
can anybody help!!!
thanks,
dan

Not many users still have CR 8.5 so not likely anyone can help you. Try downloading all of the patches, it may help....

I couldn't use Crystal Report Viewer Control in my ASPX page.

Please I'm having a problem with crystal report viewer control which I couldn't resolve. I'm using VS 2008 and Framework 3.5.
I building an ASP web application and when I add a CrystalReportViewer to my ASPX page I'm getting the following
error.
"Error 20 Type 'CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalReportViewer' is not defined."
I think maybe because I'm not having the right reference file. I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 and also I installed the following

If you have a viewer on one of your forms, delete it off the form and re-add it, ensuring that the crystalreports.web assembly referenced in your project is version 12.

One page turn out to be 4 pages in crystal report viewer, Bug?

we are using crystalReports xi release 2, visual studio 2005,IIS in windows 2003 and asp.net. We have one crystal report viewer in web page to dispaly one report, It has been running properly for several months in production server. Now we run into big issues. In report Views, one page report always turn into 4 small size pages. When we test it in visual studio 2005, it still works correctly without any problem. Even we unstalled IIS and reinstalled IIS, deployed web again, the problem is still there. It is very strange and frustrating to developer! Now we are afraid of handling crystal report, which seem arise many potential unexpected issue down the road. any clue?
the following is source got from IE browser, height for Viewer1 is only 367px,
normal value is 1039px,That is reason why page seems significantly shorter.How can we control the height? Even specifing size in css, it just be ignored.
LINK rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" aspnet_client/System_Web/2_0_50727/CrystalReportWebFormViewer3/css/default.css"><table id="CrystalReportViewer1" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="display:inline-block;border-style:Solid;height:367px;width:149px;">
style="width: 149px; height: 367px;position:relative"
Thanks in advanced.

Hi Rizwan,
You can't with the report itself because once the refresh is complete it requires a full refresh to update any page. And there is no option to for example refresh just the subreport.
RAS SDK has samples on how to add subreports, see the OverView tab for a link to the samples, but it still requires a refresh to be called.
One way may be to use Subreports on Demand, URL's to another report.... Each subreport would run individually without refreshing the main report. It would like a Table Of Contents report though.
So to be clear, adding pages is the same thing as adding more data. Problem is most of the data needs to be complete so that summaries and running totals etc. type of objects require the data to be complete to be able to render each page.
So why do you need to do this? Can you explain your workflow?

Page Not Found Error when clicking on Crystal Report Viewer print icon

Hi,
    I am working with ASP.NET 2.0 and crystla reportXI release2.
    I am getting "Page Can not be Found " error when clicking on Crystal Report Viewer print icon.
    Could you please tell me how to get rid of this error?
Regards,
Smitha

This sounds like a postback issue. Does your application handle postback by putting the report in session?
There is a [sample|http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/en/CrystalReports_dotNET_SDK/crsdk_samples_aspx/data/crsdk_net_tutorials_115_en.zip] to look at on our website. It was created with Crystal Reports XI R2 and Visual Studio .NET but the code will be the same.
A short pseudocode would be something like this:
Dim rptDocument As ReportDocument
If Not Me.IsPostBack or Session("Report") = Nothing Then
rptDocument = New ReportDocument
rptDocument.Load(sGlobalPath & "\myreport.rpt";)

Crystal Report Viewer Page Change Refresh Issue

Hello
I hope this is an easy question for someone out there.
I am using a crystal report viewer with the code contained in the page init event. The report has several pages and opens in a separate tab. There is also a on demand drilldown sub-report in the report.
When I want to move to the second page the viewer seems to process the code again (like its runs the page init event) which takes several seconds so will not be satisfactory for the users. I tried the concatenate the pages using the 'SeparatePages' property but then the user can't select a specific page.
Is there any way that the report can just open in the viewer and not have to reload everytime the user changes page?
Thanks in advance
Dave.

Hi Dave
In a web app, you could place the reports in session. See KBA: 1985571 - How to use sessions in web applications using the Crystal Reports viewer (the complete code)

Crystal Reports 2008 - Blank page on server only

Crystal Reports 2008 - Blank page on server only
My report is developed in the Crystal Reports 2008 Report Designer 12.0.0.683.
I have a .NET application that takes the report file, an ODBC connection and exports the resulting report to PDF. This application is deployed as an MSI and includes the Crystal Reports .msm merge module. The report uses multiple views and tables from a single database to create invoices in PDF format.
Problem: For one particular invoice, a blank page is being added to the end of the invoice. This blank page contains the report's standard page header. There is no missing data and no missing sections on the invoice. This is only occurring when the pdf is generated on a Windows Server 2008 x64 server where the application is deployed using the merge modules.
I have installed the application locally on my Windows Vista Business x86 system and the generated PDF does NOT contain the blank page at the end.
The blank page is not generated when previewing the report in Report Designer. For the particular invoice this is occurring on, footer F and footer G are blank and therefore suppressed.
Please bear in mind that this happens only for one particular invoice that uses this report file and does not happen from my local system using the same .rpt file.
The report is constructed of the following sections:
-Page Header (suppressed on page 1)
-Grp1 header A (watermark conditionally suppressed based upon a parameter)
-Grp1 header B (Keep together - always fits onto a single page)
-Details
-Grp1 footer A (Keep together)
-Grp1 footer B (Conditionally suppressed based upon data)
-Grp1 footer C (Keep together)
-Grp1 footer D (Contains sub report(suppressed when blank). Keep together. Suppress blank section. New page before but (Not OnLastRecord))
-Grp1 footer E (Contains sub report(suppressed when blank). Keep together. Suppress blank section.)
-Grp1 footer F (Contains sub report(suppressed when blank). Keep together. Suppress blank section.)
-Grp1 footer G (Contains sub report(suppressed when blank). Keep together. Suppress blank section.)
-Report footer (Always blank. Suppress blank section)
-Page footer (Fixed static content, displayed on every page.)

Thanks for responding, Jonathan.
Is the same runtime installed on the 64 bit system? I notice from your version number that you do not have any service packs installed on the dev system. SP 2 is out and may help.
I have installed SP1 and SP2 this morning, resaved the report file and tried again but the same problem remains.
I'm not sure how to answer your runtime question. I am using the same application built with the same merge modules on both the dev machine and the production server. Of course, the dev machine has the additional complication of having Crystal Reports 2008 installed. Perhaps this is causing the difference?
Compare the printer settings between the two systems. Try installing the same printer driver on the 64 bit system.
Perhaps I am misinterpreting your suggestion, but I am not printing the invoices. I am only exporting them to PDF. It is the PDF that has the extra page. Is there a 'print to PDF' driver of some sort that I need?
Also, was the .NET application compiled as 32 bit, or Any CPU? Whichever it was, try switching it then recompiling to see if that helps.
I tried switching to Any CPU but this caused the Crystal Reports module not to load at all on the 64bit Windows server.
Thank you for your suggestions, but my problem remains. Is it worth trying with the redistributable msi rather than using the merge modules? If so, could you recommend which one I should use? I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional.

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.
Thanks

Cleaning 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?

Crystal Report Viewer integration with Sharepoint 2010

We had a requirement in our project to view crystal report off an hyper link embedded into sharepoint web part developed using ASP .NET. The report accepted few parameters from the sharepoint page and passed those on to the SQL server to retrive data and
display the data in the report. The challenge was to open the report in the web browser.
The first difficulty was to find the right control to use, the report viewer tool that comes with Visual Studio 2010 is not the right one to use to view Crystal reports, I realised this after spending half a day trying to figure out why wouldn't the report
load. I then downloaded the Crystal Report Viewer for VS 2010 Standard from http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp. After you install this, you get the crystal report viewer in your toolbar. All you have to do is drag and drop it on
to the web part and configure it to use your report. If any one needs help with this let me know I will show how to do that.
So far so good. The biggest challenge was to deploy this on to the production server which took better part of 3 days to figure out how its done. If you deploy the WSP file as it is expecting that the crystal DLLs would be embedded in it then be ready to
expect a rude shock because it isn't. Here are the steps -
1. Deploy the WSP to the sharepoint server
2. Install the crystal dlls used in the project (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll, CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.dll, CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll, CrystalDecisions.Web.dll) into the GAC using GacUtil command
3. Add following entries to Web.Config file (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\web.congif)
    <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False"
/>
      <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
      <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Shared" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
      <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Web" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
4. Install crystal redistributable package which can be downloaded from http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp (
SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4 (64-bit))
5. Copy aspnet_client folder from C:\>inetpub\wwwroot and overwrite it on C:\>inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80
And we are done. Fingers crossed it should all work.

Hi Mahesh,
How are you loading the report in your webpart? This is what I have done. I have tried to explain what I am doing in the program comments. Hope this helps. Good luck.
                SPSite mySite = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url.ToString());
                SPWeb thisSite = mySite.OpenWeb();

Problem in crystal report viewer control's toolbar "export"button using SSL

Hi,
I would like to ask. My project is using BO XI Release 2 and VS-Studio 2005. Initially my project doesn't use SSL... At that time when i view the report with crystal report viewer control and can export (using built-in toolbar "export button"). Now project is using SSL and canu2019t export the error is
u201CInternet Explorer cannot download file from server.
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.u201D
Actually this error can solve "Cache-control" change to "no-cache". But I donu2019t know in crystal reportu2026
Anyone can help ???
Thanks

In Internet Explorer, go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced and ensure "Do not save encrypted pages to disk" is unchecked.
Default is to have that option checked.
It was considered a IE security issue that IE saves all content to temp disk location unencrypted, even those pages served by HTTPS (for example, let's say you use HTTPS to download your bank info, and it's stored to temp disk for someone else to retrieve later). So more recent versions of IE implemented that option setting.
How that option setting works is strange - it downloads the file, saves to disk, then deletes the copy from the disk immediately, before passing it to the application responsible for the MIME type. So the application tries to open a directory path to a non-existing file.
Issue is specific to IE, and it's not something you can control via the SDK.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Integration of Crystal Report Viewer in VS2010 WPF

Hello,
I google and research and founded that the viewer control is not attached with VS2010 so, we have to install it separately. I found it form here [http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp].
I installed "SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010".
Now, I want to add Crystal Report Viewer on my WPF Page. how can I do this ?
I tried to find that control to add in toolbox but I didn't find it.
Please can someone help me int this that how can I add that control and call the report to view in that and change the sql server dynamically for that crystal report.
Bunch of thanks in advance, this would save me a lot....Appreciated any ones help.
Thanks

If I change the user agent string in Firefox to that of Firefox 7.0.1 everything works as expected, this implies there is some logic in get_IsNetscape6Up() which is failing because the major browser version as reported by the user agent string is two digits instead of one.
We encountered a similar issue for our legacy pages containing Infragistics 2007 controls but were able to fix that by overriding the System.Web.Configuration.HttpCapabilitiesBase.BrowserCapabilitiesProvider and faking the browser version to 9.80. Crystal Report Viewer is apparently not using .Net's built in HttpBrowserCapabilities object, is there anything else I can adjust to stop the viewer failing?

Today must be my day. I already got a reply from PM (normally it takes a "bit" longer...). Anyhow, here is what he said:
With Firefoxu2019s release cycles, I donu2019t think weu2019ll be able to officially support the latest versions
of Firefox at every service release. We do our best to test the released versions of Firefox
that align with our releases. I donu2019t know the details but Iu2019ve heard there is a plan in place where
the support team(s) (?) will test the most recent releases of Firefox with whatu2019s currently
shipping by SAP and log bugs as necessary.
(umm, this is my - Ludek note here ) -> news to me re. support doing QA... find out something new every day. Anyhow, continuation of the message from PM:
The current plan for CR for VS2010, the SP3 release (expected in April) will support up to
Firefox 9. If there are reproducible bugs in Firefox 10 (or higher), then please enter a bug
and escalate and it will be investigated for the next available release.
I'll revisit this once SP3 is out there and do an escalation for Firefox 10 - ok?

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 8.5

Hi
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 report viewer does not observe the PaperSize and PageOrientation setting

Hi:
My application is a 3 tier application, where the WinForm client is connected to the WCF Services hosted in IIS server.
The report is generated on server side using WCF service, and export as.rpt with data, the .rpt file is then sent to the WinForm client, the Crystal Report viewer is used to load the .rpt file for preview and print.
On server side I've Microsoft XPS Document Writer installed and set as default printer. On the client side if the default printer is XPS or Nitro PDF creator, the report can be view and print correctly, report design in landscape will be able to show in the landscape in CR viewer, report design using custom paper size (e.g. Half Letter), CR viewer able to show it in Half Letter.
The problem that I'm facing is when the default printer is set to HP LaserJet P1120 or others (I've tried Epson ESC/P Standard driver), the report is always shown in the portrait, and it will not be able to show in custom paper size either. Here is my code:
     Dim settings As New System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings
     Dim rep as New ReportDocument
     rep.Load(sOutputFileName)     'The report is download from server and save in sOutputFileName
     SetReportPaperSize(rep, sPaperSizeName, False, settings) ' sPaperSizeName store the name of the custom paper used in the report
     CrViewer.ReportSource = rep
   Public Shared Sub SetReportPaperSize(rep As ReportDocument, paperSizeName As String, isHardCopy As Boolean, settings As Printing.PrinterSettings)
      Dim installedPrinters As Printing.PrinterSettings.StringCollection = Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters
      Dim printers As New List(Of String)
      Dim sPrinter As String
      If installedPrinters.Count = 0 Then
         Return
      End If
      SetPrinterDefaultPaperSize(rep.PrintOptions, paperSizeName, settings)
      With rep.PrintOptions
         .PrinterName = settings.PrinterName
         .PaperSource = PaperSource.Auto
         If paperSizeName.Trim.Length > 0 Then
            .PaperSize = DirectCast(GetPapersizeId(paperSizeName, settings, rep.PrintOptions.PaperSize), CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperSize)
         End If
      End With
   End Sub
   Public Shared Sub SetPrinterDefaultPaperSize(printOptions As PrintOptions, paperSizeName As String, settings As Printing.PrinterSettings)
      With settings.DefaultPageSettings
         If paperSizeName.Trim.Length = 0 Then
            . PaperSize = GetPaperSize (printOptions.PaperSize, settings)
         Else
            For Each size As Printing.PaperSize In settings.PaperSizes
               If size.PaperName.EqualsTo(paperSizeName) Then
                  .PaperSize = size
                  Exit For
               End If
            Next
         End If
         .Landscape = printOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape
         .Margins.Top = printOptions.PageMargins.topMargin
         .Margins.Left = printOptions.PageMargins.leftMargin
         .Margins.Bottom = printOptions.PageMargins.bottomMargin
         .Margins.Right = printOptions.PageMargins.rightMargin
      End With
   End Sub
   Public Shared Function GetPaperSize(paperSizeId As Integer, defaultPrinterSettings As Printing.PrinterSettings) As Printing.PaperSize
      Dim settings As Printing.PrinterSettings = defaultPrinterSettings
      Dim result As Printing.PaperSize
      If settings Is Nothing Then
         settings = New Printing.PrinterSettings
      End If
      ' Default paper Size defined in the printer
      result = settings.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize
      For Each size As Printing.PaperSize In settings.PaperSizes
         If size.RawKind = paperSizeId Then
            result = size
            Exit For
         End If
      Next
      Return result
   End Function
   Public Shared Function GetPapersizeId(paperSizeName As String, defaultPrinterSettings As Printing.PrinterSettings Optional defaultpaperSizeId As CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperSize = CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperSize.DefaultPaperSize) As Integer
      Dim settings As Printing.PrinterSettings = defaultPrinterSettings
      Dim result As Integer = defaultpaperSizeId
      If settings Is Nothing Then
         settings = New Printing.PrinterSettings
      End If
      If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(paperSizeName) Then
         For Each size As Printing.PaperSize In settings.PaperSizes
            ' Height and Width in Printing.PaperSize is measure in hundredths of an inch
            If size.PaperName.EqualsTo(paperSizeName) Then
               result = size.RawKind
               Exit For
            End If
         Next
      End If
      Return result
   End Function
Setting the PrintOptions.PaperSize and PageOrientation seem like no effect on the viewer. My code to load the report to CR viewer is much more complicated than the code I show above, I've a background worker thread to download the report, and when the worker thread finished download the report from the server, it will assign the report to CRViewer. Do the changes in report PrintOption before assign to CRViewe and after assigning to CRViewer make any different?
I'm using VS2010, CR XI R2 (Version 11.5.3700.0). Please Help. Thanks

Hi JC,
CRXI R2 is a no go with VS 2010, these two are not compatible.
With CR 11.5 use VS 2005.
Or Use VS 2010 and CR for VS 2010 (13.0)
Once you have the supported / compatible conbination of CR and VS, use the In Proc RAS .NET code from below KBA.

Also, see the KBAs returned by below search. The top right corner search box on this page is quite helpful.

Crystal Reports Viewer Toolbar Images missing

I have Crystal Reports XI R2 installed on a windows server 2008 R2 Enterprise server and when a when I browse to my asp.net page withe the crystal reports viewer I get the red x's for the toolbar images. The viewer and web.config entries all reference the 11.5.3700.0. When I view the source of the page the source is "../aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/crystalreportviewers115". At first the crystalreportviewers115 was not in subfolder at my sites root aspnet_client folder and so I copied it there. But it still doesn't work.
What seems odd is that we I was using the embedded version from VS 2008 (10.5.3700.0) the view source of the page showed the image path as "/aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/CrystalReportWebFormViewer4" and this worked fine but when I use XI R2 (11.5.3700.0) the path is "../aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/crystalreportviewers115" so where and why is there ".." for the XI R2 version.

CR 11.5 is not supported on WIn 2008 server. See [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567] wiki.
You may also want to take a look at the article [Viewer toolbar images appear as red u2018X on Crystal Reports VS .NET web viewer|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50aa68c0-82dd-2b10-42bf-e5502b45cd3a]. It may help, but if not, you'll have to move on to a supported version of CR.
