Crystal Reports for windows 7

Hi,
I work with vb.net 2008 in windows 7 and found that the crystal reports 9 that I used in vb6 is incompatible.
I need help to make a decision about which version of the program to buy that is compatible with vb.net 2008 in windows 7.
thanks
Dov

For more relevant answer with your problem, you should use the SAP forum as Crystal Report.
SAP
Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio
Hi,
Because this is a 3rd party product, as Har Das suggested, you'd better to ask question at its official website for better support.
Thank you for your understanding.

Crystal Reports for VS2005 causes a Redistributable error for Windows 7

HI, I believe I also have a compatibility iossue with pre-bundeled Visual Studio 2005 (VS2005) Crystal Reports and Windows 7 using an XP development environment on a virtual PC.
I had built and published my VS 2005 desktop application code on a virtual PC running XP.After publishing the application executable to an application server for Windows 7 Kiosks machines to use. These Kiosks machines are used for Member Check In services. I discoverd that I get an error message when I attempt to print something from the application interface which says:
+"Please install the appropriate Crytsal Reports redistributable (CCRedist.msi) contaning the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com./support for more information."+*
In attempting to resolve this issue, I went to the SAP site for help and discovered a help page on Merged Modules listed on one of the Web pages.
Next, I tried the suggestion one of the articles had mentioned about using CR2008 Click Once with VS2500 applications when deploying them. So I made sure that I unzipped this downloaded file and copied over the existing Click Once Bootstrap files, listed in the Windows 8 /Bootstrap/Packages, with those from the SAP downloaded files for 2008 Click Once.
Finally, I then rebuilt my application in VS2500 and published it using Click Once for the Windows 7 KIOSK to use.
Unfortunately, when I went to link and run the application's executable using the Windows 7 Kiosk in order to run it's interface, I still got the same error message when I tried to print out a member's Check In ticket. These tickets are created using VS2005 Crystal Reports.
Q) Did I do something incorrect when I used the SAP CR2008 Click Once merged module on deployemnt?
Thanks.
Tony

Hi All,

Crystal report preview window freezes if I push any key on the keyboard

our system is a pretty old one, and we are still using crystal report 7 and vc6(mfc6).
It is a simple dialog based application with a button and a flex grid7.1 component on it.
when the button is clicked, a crystal report preview window will be opened and become the active window.
the problem is that, when i pushed a key on the keyboard ('a' for example) the whole application will freeze, and CPU Occupancy Rate is 100%.
but if I switch the dialog to be current active window after a preview window opened, keyboard input won't make the application freeze.
It seems that crystal report preview window don't know how to deal with the keyboard input.
BTW:
I use the methods below to open a preview window.
PEOpenEngine
PEOpenPrintJob
PEPrintReport
have anyone here met any similiar problems before?
I really need your help.
thanks in advance.

Moved to Legacy Application Development SDKs forum.
I have nothing for you, other than; consider upgrading - after all CR 7 shipped in 1998(!). I don't know what OS you are on, but I suspect what ever OS it is, it was not even in a concept stage of thought when CR 7 shipped. E.g.; this may be an OS issue more than anything else.
BTW., print engine APIs were retired in version 9 of Crystal Reports. At this time, your best option is to upgrade to CR 2008 (12.0)and use .NET or Java. If you are using VB 6 or equivalent, you could still upgrade to CR XI r2 (11.5) and use the Report Designer Component (RDC). However, note that CR XI r2 will be out of support in June of this year. And CR XI R2 is the last version of CR to include the RDC.

Problem with Crystal reports for Eclipse and Postgres-databases

Hi,
Is there a known problem when using a PostgreSQL-database to create a report with Crystal reports Plugin? When I drag a table, then occurs a error-windows, that the object can't created.
I have found a workaround for solving the problem. After new installing Eclipse Platform Version: 3.4.1 Build id: M20080911-1700 and Crystal reports Plugin 11.8.6.v1371 with JRE 1.6.0_01 the error message allways occurs, when I select a table from a PostgreSQL database (Version 8.2). After restarting eclipse you see the last selected tables in the field explorer and you can drag the table fields in the report. A repeated choice of the same table causes aliases for the table in the field explorer after restarting eclipse.
Error.log:

Your issue appears to be a Crystal Reports for Eclipse report designer thing, and not a JRC runtime thing. The JRC runtime does support Type 4 JDBC drivers, but all modern PostgreSQL drivers are Type 4.
The current report designer is more restrictive than the JRC runtime - and PostgreSQL, being not on the supported platforms list, has never been tested with the embedded designer.
Unless there's anybody out there with experience with PostgreSQL and CR4E designer, who would be willing to share their experiences.

Crystal report for visual studio 2005 dblogin problem

Dear Sir,
I am using Visual Studio 2005 and crystal reports for visual studio 2005 and sql server 2000.
When I am running the project from my pc where it was developed and a local server with server authentication, report is opening but from client machine there is a new screen come before opening the report asking for login issue. my reports has subreports
also.
I am using dsn file to connect with server from crystal reports where dsn file contains as follows:
[ODBC]
DRIVER=SQL Server
UID=sa
PWD=sa
DATABASE=HRISDB
WSID=S-AGD-PAY01\HRSERVER
APP=Microsoft Data Access Components
SERVER=S-AGD-PAY01\HRSERVER
so it is dynamic bcoz i need change server name sometimes. my question is when same report want show user from their pc then below screen appears:
database login
server Name: C:\program files\HRIS\HRISDB.dsn
Databse: HRISDB
user id:
PassworD:
Integrated Security: it is checked and a finish button.
(i am sorry bcoz screenshort is not attaching so I write above what in the diagloag box for you)
then i need to uncheck the use integrated security and click finish then the reports come. THis is very annoying for my clients.
Please help me how can I overcome it.
It is mentionable that I didn't use any dblogin method in my code to like setdbloginforReport(). I think there is no problem bcoz the report show correctly. Just want to know how to overcome this screen.

You know, this forum is for controls, apis, components for the user interface Windows Forms.
Unlucky enough, Microsoft does not support Crystal reports anymore for many years.

CRYSTAL REPORT FOR ENTERPRISE ON ECC

Hi Everyone,
I have been trying to connect Crystal Report for Enterprise over ECC via universe as we don't have option
to connect CR4E directly to ECC.
So, I have made a universe in IDT and published it in repository.
Now, when I am using that universe in WebI Report and DashBoard then it is working fine but the same is throwing
the error while I am trying to connect with CR4E 'Failed to execute query: 'Fail to create an instance of Job : com/businessobjects/i18n/locale/BoLocale'.
The same error 'Fail to create an instance of Job : com/businessobjects/i18n/locale/BoLocale' was also coming when we try to save the IDT with Secure Connections is set to Server Middleware(Window -> Preferences->Information Design Tool ->Secured Connections ->Server Middleware).
Regards,
Raghwendra

Hi,
As per the SAP Note 2022008 - Crystal Reports for Enterprise gives error with ERP Universe this is is the bug in
SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.1 Support Pack 3 Patch 1
SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform 4.1 Support Pack 3 Patch 1
This issue has been reproduced at SAP and is found to be a bug (ADAPT01725424).

Crystal Report for Generic (Draft) Docuent.

Dear all,
I have a Crystal Report for Draft Document using TmSp_DocLineTypeLayout
Stored porcedure it was working fine in our
company Database but When i deploy in to client machine it working fine for added records but when i call the report for genrarically (before adding the record (ie) Draft) it saying
the following Error:
object reference not set to an instance of an object
OS:Windows Server 2008
DB:SQL SErver 2008 R2
SAP B1: 8.81
I think the problem may be in SQLserver
Thanks,
Vasantha Praba

Hi Vasanta....
You need to set the Database location by doing Set Location in Crystal Report.
Because when you run the CR in new DB still it is picking the old DB instance which it is not getting. So you must update the new DB location with Old one by creating new connection.....
Hope this may solve your problem.....

Error With Crystal Reports On Windows Server 2012

Hello,
I have a VB.NET exe application created in Visual Studio 2010 that prints a crystal report directly to the printer. On Windows Server 2008 it worked fine but it does not work on Windows Server 2012. The report was originally created in Crystal Reports 2011. I have read elsewhere that in order to run a Crystal Report on WS 2012 that it needs to be created using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio. So I installed the developer version of Crystal Reports for Visual Studio (v. 13.0.8.1216). I opened the report in Visual Studio and saved it. I then installed the CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_8.msi on the WS 2012. My vb.net exe has the CrystalDecisions assemblies shown below. When I try to run the exe I get the error below. Does anyone have any idea as to what I am doing wrong? Thank you for your input.
Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'PrintWorkOrderAndDrawing.PrintWorkOrderAndDrawing' threw an exception. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.En

or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://

Hi Thomas
First the info re.;
I have read elsewhere that in order to run a Crystal Report on WS 2012 that it needs to be created using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio.
is incorrect. CRVS will run all reports down to CR 9 without issues. And even reports created in older versions will, for the most part, work just fine.
The error is rather strange as it normally indicates that an incorrect runtime has been installed. However in your case as you are using CR 13.0.8.1216 and the 64bit_13_0_8.msi that does not look to be the case. I would like you to double check the CR references in the project. Say, crystaldecisions.crystalreports.engine. It should be version 13.0.2000.0.
If that is confirmed, then we may be at the permissions mentioned in the error. And I'd use Process Monitor for that. Filter ProcMon for the app exe and run the app. Look at the logs for "Access denied" messages. In the log, look for CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, see what the exe is doing with it. Where is it trying to load it from? Etc., etc.

Buffer too small for string - Crystal Report for Vs2010

Hello,
    I have recently upgrade my VS2010 project to Crystal Report for Visual Studion 2010.
    I have some reports that contains more than 512 characters in the Report Comments section.
    When I try to do a RptDoc.SaveAs(vPath, false) the following error is raised:
Buffer too small for string or missing null byte.
      at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ClientDoc.ReportClientDocumentClass.SaveAs in :line 0
      at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportClientDocumentWrapper.SaveAs in :line 0
      at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.SaveAs in :line 0
    This line SaveAs was working has expected with Crystal Report 2008. Any idea on why it is not working anymore.
Thank you.

Hello Don,
    I have start a little project to retest the behavior.
   I have create a new report in Crystal Report 2008 just by clicking New, Finish and Save.
   In a new Windows Application in Vs2010 ,I have added the following Crystal Report Reference.
    CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=13.0.2000.0
   CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=13.0.2000.0
I have then try the following code and found out the limit of ReportComment is 511 but in the Crystal Report 2008 designer and runtime the limit did not apply.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
      Dim objRpt As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument()
      Dim i As Integer = 0
      Try
         objRpt.Load("c:\temp\empty.rpt", CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy)
         Do
            i += 1
            objRpt.SummaryInfo.ReportComments = New String("X", i)
         Loop
         objRpt.SaveAs("c:\temp\dfh_save.rpt", False)
      Catch ex As Exception
         MsgBox("i: " & i)
         MsgBox(ex.Message)
      End Try
End Sub
     I am able to put has many characters if I insert the report in the Vs2010 Solution.
     If you prefer I can send you my little project.
Thank you.

Problems with concurrency tests using Crystal Reports for VS 2005

Post Author: condeagustin
CA Forum: General Feedback
Hi
My name is Agustin and Im using Crystal Reports for VS 2005
and NET 2.0 to generate pdf files. This is the scenario:
I created a COM+ object in c# and everytime the
COM+ creates an instance of this object, the following flow is executed:
it reads an xml file from a database, then it feeds the report with this
xml file, afterwards it generates a pdf file and finally this pdf file is
inserted into the database. Both fields (xml and pdf fields) are varbinary in the
same table in sql server 2005. All the flow from reading the xml to inserting
the pdf into the database is executed in memory, it never goes to the hard
disk. In other words both the xml and the pdf file are stored in memory (the
RAM). That is the only function of that COM+ object and I already have it in a
production server and it works GREAT!!
The PROBLEM is the concurrency tests. I made the following tests
in the same production server:
1. First I went to the registry and I set the PrintJobLimit to
100 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARECrystal Decisions10.2Report Application
ServerServer
2. I shut down the object in the COM+ and I executed 100
threads all at the same time. Each thread created one instance of the object in
the COM+ and the 100 pdfs were generated SUCCESFULLY in 5 minutes!!
3. Then I executed again 100 threads (WITHOUT shutting down the
object in the com+). 10 pdfs were generated succesfully but the rest were
never generated and there was no exception because my object was NEVER
INSTANTIADED in the COM+, I mean, the 90 instances were never created in the
COM+, so my object was never executed, THAT IS MY PROBLEM!! Do I have to
modify something in the registry files of crystal reports to fix this? What can
I do? I have revised the code in that object a LOT OF TIMES and believe me,
everything is being closed and disposed at the end (the memory streams, the
ReportClass objects, the connection to the database, even the dataset used to
store the data of the xml file!
So to sum up the problem is not with the execution of my object
(cause once is created the object works great and the pdf is generated
perfectly!), the problem is with the com+ TRYING to create another instance
of my object given that test scenario. Help me please, What do you
suggest?
The production server has this specifications:
Operative System: Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 2
Processor: Dual Core AMD Opteron 2212 2.00GHz
RAM: 820MB
Hard drive: It is partitioned in 2 drives --> C
drive has 20GB and D has 60GB
Note: Each generated pdf has only one page and if you bring it
to disk its maximum size is 56KB
I hope your answer and thank you

Test Connection failed in Crystal Reports for Eclipse using SQL Server 2008

I installed an SQL Server Express 2008 on my local PC (Window XP SP3). I downloaded sqljdbc4.jar to Crystal Reports for Eclipse
IDE library path and tried to Test Connection, but got the Ping failed message : The TCP/IP connection to the host localhost, port 1433 has failed. It said that check that an instance of SQL Server is running on the host (I saw SQL Server SQLEXPRESS is Running on my PC) and accepting TCP/IP connection at the port (I enabled TCP/IPin my PC's SQL Server Network Configuration),
and that no firewall is blocking TCP connection to the port(I turned OFF Window Firewall on my OC). Can anyone tell me how can I fix this problem ?

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.

Crystal Reports for VS 2010 corrupts "some" Thai chars on PDF Export

Any Thai character that contains a symbol above it (like an umlat in English) gets corrupted when exporting a report to PDF, yet the same report can be exported to Excel or Word without any issue.
See the following character - once with a symbol above one without:
ล้ ล
The PDF file will not display the first character - instead it displays the second character overlayed on a box (like you get when the font does not contain the required character)
If I create a text field in the Crystal designer, it does the same thing - but when I right click and edit, it displays correctly - until I click out of the field when the problem returns. So this suggests the problem is before the PDF export and maybe with the designer - but then why does it work if i export to Word?
I have tried may different fonts - including those specifically recommended and used by the Thais, but all have the same issue.
My work around at the moment is to use Word instead of PDF, as I do not believe there is a configuration change I can make that will resolve the issue, but would love to hear otherwise.
I am using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 version 13 running on Windows 7 x64. I have a beta 2 download of v14, but it requires a key code which i do not have, so as yet ahave been unable to verify if this issue is resolved in that version.
if anyone knows otherwise, please let me know
Cheers

Thanks Don,
(Good to know that version 13 I am running is the correct one)
I have tried many UTF-8 fonts, with largely similar results, but this testing here is with Cordia New - a font largely aimed at Thai Language and the one our Thai customers always use.
I have confirmed that right click and export from the IDE still shows the box on certain characters - but note that the box does not replace these characters (as would be the case if they were missing) but rather overlays them - which is why my subject includes the word 'corrupt'
All testing so far in on my Windows 7 development machine - so no user issues are involved
The code if fairly simple at this stage - define and load a data set - then link it to the report and use the built in export to disk functions:
                OutboundSummary rpt = new OutboundSummary();
                rpt.SetDataSource(outboundSummary);
                string tempDir = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TEMP") + "
                string filename = tempDir + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss");
                rpt.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, filename + ".pdf");
                rpt.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.WordForWindows, filename + ".doc");
If anyone wanted to verify, here is a piece of Thai text that will show the problem

I am coming to the conclusion that perhaps these characters are not single characters - at least do not appear as such with each font - and perhaps Windows does some magic to make them appear correctly. I can see that Word automatically converts them to a suitable font - i.e. a mixed language text file imports into word with different fonts for different languages - and you cannot change the font to one that does not support the language. I can specify Arial from Crystal which does not contain thai characters at all - but export to word and they show correctly.
Crystal spits the data out and Word converts it correctly, but acrobat does not - so maybe it is their fault?
I have all language packs on my machine - and doing Chinese next suggests that even if I find a thai font that worked, it would not work in chinese, so am thinking word or rtf might be the winner.
