Crystal Reports as Forms

I've got a handful of Adobe Forms that I want to convert into Crystal Reports and need to incorporate a "checkbox" that the user can tick off interactively with the report.
I've read a lot of threads describing how to show a checkbox based on a database value, but none that actually allow a user to click on the box and check/uncheck it.
This "form" doesn't need to submit anything back to a database because the users will just be printing the form out and faxing it off. It just needs to be interactive.
Thoughts, ideas?

I've never heard of this. You can export to Adobe but I don't believe we have an Adobe plugin.

Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer Error in 1 Workstation after upgrade of PL

Hi all,
We just upgraded SAP from 8.82 PL02 to 8.82 PL15.
Afterwards, in just 1 workstation, Crystal Reports layouts have Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer error I attach.
Before the upgrade this error did not happen.
No permissions or authorizations were changed in the workstation.
The Crystal Reports layouts remain working fine in server and in the other workstations.
In the workstation following are installed:
- Operating System Windows 7;
- Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5;
- SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for. NET Framework;
- Crystal Report 2008 Runtime SP6;
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Native Client.
All, but the operating system, are equal to the other workstations.
User has edit access to SAP folders, temp and access to the attach path.
We already uninstalled SAP client and client agent and re-installed it but with no avail.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Pedro Mariano

Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer problems - table could not be found

Hi,
I installed Crystal Report Viewer in SAP Business One 2007. All the while, I can run the reports without any problem. but when I loaded some of the new report, it gives me the following error message:
the caption says: "Crystal Reports Windows Forms Viewer"
the message says: "The table 'paymentVoucher' could not be found.
Error in file C:\...paymentVoucher.rpt. The table could not be found."
By the way, I can run the report in another workstation.
Any help or ideas of why this is happening or how to solve this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

The report is not created by me. I just help others to transfer the report from one workstation to another workstation. PaymentVoucher is a view in the database and it is being put at a workstation that can be shared by everyone.
I've go through other forums and found out that it might be permission issues and now managed to solve the problem already.
Thanks everyone for the advice.

PASSING PARAMETERS TO CRYSTAL REPORTS THRU FORMS!

Hi! all,
Is there someone who passed parameters to crystal reports from
forms 5.0?
The problem is when I call the report executable from the form,
its giving a login prompt again which is not desirable as @ this
stage the user has already logged in once. So is there a way to
pass this as a parameter to crystal or may be any better way???
Thanx for the solution,
Hima

How to Call a Crystal Report from Form 6i?

Dear All,
Can anybody tell me how to call a crystal report, designed using Crystal Report 9, in form 6i? I tried one solution by using the host command but it was not working properly. The code I was tried is like:
     f_name varchar2(240);
     f_name :='C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Crystal Reports 9\crw32.exe D:\Form16\Form16_Rep\bin\Debug\Form_16_character_emp.rpt';
               host(f_name);
This open the crystal report in design view. So how we call a report which run automatically like in .Net. How to pass the connection info of the database schema?
Thanks & Regards
Sunil

Hi
First see the built in run_product function.
You can create a parameter list, add the
"MAXIMIZE" paramter in it and then call your
report with run_product passing your parameter list in it.
hence the called report will be maximized.

Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer - No Error Popup

Similar to this post: Error message that says "No Error" from CR Viewer, I have just upgraded by Application to .net 4.0 and Crystal Reports 2010. The report viewer works fine the first time a report is loaded, but when I change the parameters on the report, and put the updated report back into the report viewer, I get the message shown above. The report does not change its parameters and the updated report is not displayed. The code in question is setting the date parameters for the report. The user can select new date parameters from the form that encloses the report viewer. The code subclasses the Report Object code to add additional functions through interfaces. The IDateRange interface provides a starting and ending date range for the report using a property on the report class as follows:
    Public Property EndingDate() As Date Implements IDateRange.EndingDate
        Get
            Return _endingDate
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Date)
            _endingDate = value
            Me.SetParameterValue("EndingDate", value)
        End Set
    End Property
In addition, the immediate Window shows the following message:
A first chance exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll
The code in the Report Viewer looks like this, see line marked in blue for when pop-up appears:
''' <summary>
''' Sets the report period and displays it.
''' </summary>
''' <param name="Report">The Report.</param>
''' <param name="Refresh">if set to <c>true</c> force a refresh.</param>
Private Function PFSetReportPeriod(ByVal Report As Object, Optional ByVal Refresh As Boolean = True) As Boolean
    Dim fld As FormulaFieldDefinition
    Dim bRefresh As Boolean = False
    Dim rpt As ReportClass = CType(Report, ReportClass)
    Try
        If CRV.ReportSource IsNot Nothing Then
            rpt = CType(CRV.ReportSource, ReportClass)
        End If
If TypeOf rpt Is IDateRange Then
    With DirectCast(rpt, IDateRange)
.        StartingDate = dtpFromDate.Value
.        EndingDate = dtpToDate.Value
    End With
    SetTitleLine2(DirectCast(Report, ReportClass), bRefresh)
    bRefresh = True
Else
    If TypeOf rpt Is ReportClass Then
       fld = rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields("FromDate")
       If Not fld Is Nothing Then
            fld.Text = "Date(" & dtpFromDate.Value.Year & "," & dtpFromDate.Value.Month & "," & dtpFromDate.Value.Day & ")"
            bRefresh = True
        End If
        fld = rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields("ToDate")
        If Not fld Is Nothing Then
            fld.Text = "Date(" & dtpToDate.Value.Year & "," & dtpToDate.Value.Month & "," & dtpToDate.Value.Day & ")"
            bRefresh = True
        End If
        SetTitleLine2(rpt, bRefresh)
    End If
End If
    If Refresh And bRefresh Then
        If dtpToDate.Value <> CDate(dtpToDate.Tag) OrElse _
           dtpFromDate.Value <> CDate(dtpFromDate.Tag) Then
                System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents()
            If CRV.Visible Then CRV.ReportSource = rpt ' The popup appears when this statement is executed.
            If CRV.Visible = True Then CRV.Refresh()
            dtpToDate.Tag = dtpToDate.Value
            dtpFromDate.Tag = dtpFromDate.Value
           Return True
        End If
    End If
Catch ex As Exception
    DisplayException(ex)
End Try
Return False
End Function

Problem has been resolved. I downloaded Support Pack 8 (v.13.0.8.1216) from this location. I then applied the fix from the entry above:
With CRV ' Report Viewer Control
    If .Visible Then
        If .ParameterFieldInfo IsNot Nothing Then .ParameterFieldInfo.Clear()
        .ReportSource = rpt
        .Refresh()
    End If
End With
And no more annoying "No Error" messages.

Crystal Report Windows Form Viewer - Error in compiling SQL Expression

I am using C# and the Crystal Reports API to render reports in a windows application. Recently we decided to start using SQL Expressions in our reports. The reports developers are able to use them in development, but as soon as we deploy the reports to production, we are seeing the following error.
Why does this work when developing forms but not when using the C# API?

Hi Adam
I pinged couple of people here, but so far have not got a reply. I'll update this post as soon as I get anything.

Crystal report windows forms viewer - error in file

I am using visual basic - visual studio 2005 with crystal reports version 11.5 and am getting the following error when deploying to a windows 7 32 bit machine
Error in file
c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\tempmanynumbersandcharacters.rpt
The request could not be submitted for background processing.
All six reports for this application give the same error. There is not a problem when it is deployed to a windows xp machine. I have three other applications that do not have problems in windows xp or windows 7 32 bit. I can't see any difference between these three apps and the one have a problem in windows 7.
Thanks,
Jay

You do not mention if you searched the forums and the Kbase for the error... Using the search box in the top right corner of this web page will return KBases, Blogs, Wikis, articles and more. The following article should have been returned with a simple search;

Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer error: "The field name is not known"

Hi,
My report runs fine in the Crystal Reports viewer. When we try to view the crystal report through a piece of 3rd party software, I start to get errors in a few of my formulas indicating that "the field name is not known". I can clearly see that the field is in my crystal report. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on what might be happening?
Thank you.

Just to provide some further clarification on my problem:
The "field name is not known" error seems to be occurring only in a few formulas where I have a statement like this:
if ISNULL({somefieldfromdatabase}) Then
I've used this for many other formulas and not had an issue with them. I've verified that the database and the stored procedure contain this field.

Run Crystal Report From Forms

Dear all,
Can i run a crystal report from forms10g ? if i yes then how can i do it
Thanks in advance

I have to be honest I don't know much about crystal reports.
In addition to the suggestion of Francois, if you can access/run it via a URL you could use the web.show_document procedure with the url containing all your required parameters, which is similar to some of the method available to run oracle reports.
eg. web.show_document(http://ServerNameDetails?parameter1=1&parameter2=hello,'_blank');
