Crystal Reports version message problem

Hi,
I am getting following message while opening the reports in CR XI.
"This report was created with a version of Crystal Reports which is later than the version you are running. Some features used in the report may not be supported. "
These reports were created in CR2008.
When such reports are being opened by a VB6 executable which has reference to CR XI design library, it given above message. Is there anyway to get rid of this message? e.g. by setting any special property to false so that this message won't appear.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

No option to disable warning messages. In your app have the users export to RPT format or use the SaveAs option in code so they use a local copy of the report.
You may be able to capture the message event and close the window though. I don't have any code to show how to. Possibly someone else may have and example.
The app will save the report in the version is uses.
Thank you
Don

Crystal Reports Version 13_0_9 Problems

I currently run VS2012 with version 13_0_8 installed for VS2012, and runtimes 32bit and 64bit.
I also have VS2013 installed but not being used as Crystal wasn't compatible.
OS: Windows 8.1 Pro (x64) with all patches applied.
These all installed originally without errors.
I have now downloaded the new version 13_0_9, uninstalled version 13_0_8, and runtimes, and tried to install the new versions and CRforVS_13_0_9.exe
CRforVS_13_0_9.exe fails
Error 2753. The File "agent.exe.6ED28686_7B19_420C_B255_5B6C1BD2C705" is not marked for installation.
This appears to be a bug that I can get around using http://flexerasoftware.force.com/articles/en_US/ISSUE/Q207355
The 32bit runtime installs fine.
The 64 Bit runtime fails with Error 1935.(C++ 2005 runtime problem).
I have tried to revert back to version 13_0_8 and VS2012 but it appears that all versions now fail with the above two errors.
I enclose a screen dump of the log file created during the install. Looks very odd as the processorarchitecture="amd64"?
Thanks

Hi All
I've same issue
I tried to Install 32 bit for vs2013
Support Pack 9 (v. 13.0.9.1312)
It gave me some error which has stopped my installation
anyone has solution for this? Error screen shot is attached with this question

Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010 Problem

Dear all,
I encounter a problem after installed the crystal report version for Visual Studio 2010. Once I call
                       ReportDocument.PrintToPrinter(1,False, 0, 0)
The error message prompt:
Report is unavailable(Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name:index)
If I try
                         ReportDocument.PrintToPrinter(1,False, 1, 1)
It can print the 1st page of the report.
I also try to create a simple report. It works.
After installed this version, my reports also encounter the same problem in Visual Studio 2008.
My report has sub-reports. My PC is Windows XP.
Anybody has idea on this issue!?

Now you can set the various printer options using the PrintOutputController. I'm using a UI box to select the printer but your developer should be able to figure this out. If not you can include him in the e-mail, it would be fine to go direct. Of course you will stay in the thread:
     private void btnSetPrinter_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
          System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument pDoc = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument();
            CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.PrintReportOptions rasPROpts = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.PrintReportOptionsClass();
          // Use the next line if you need to, you'll ahve to test. Depends on how the reports were saved.
            //CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.PrintOptions.DissociatePageSizeAndPrinterPaperSize = true;
            //CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.ISCRPrintOptions.DissociatePageSizeAndPrinterPaperSize = true;
            //pDoc.DefaultPageSettings = pgSettings;
            PrintDialog dlg = new PrintDialog();
            dlg.Document = pDoc;
            if (dlg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.Cancel)
                MessageBox.Show("Cancel Button clicked", "RAS", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
                return;
            else
                CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.PrintOptions MYPRTOpts = new PrintOptionsClass();
                if (rdoCurrent.Checked)
                    pDoc.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = cboCurrentPrinters.Text;

                    MYPRTOpts.PrinterName = cboCurrentPrinters.Text;
                    MYPRTOpts.PaperSize = (CrPaperSizeEnum)

Crystal Report Caching(?) Problem

Post Author: cfernald
CA Forum: General
We have a web app that launches Crystal Reports (version 10) in the crystal reports viewer that plugs into IE (version 6.0). The whole thing is managed by Crystal Enterprise Server.
The problem: You launch a report and let's say it shows you 10 lines of data on the report. You perform some activity in the application that updates the database such that an 11 lines should appear on the report. However, when you run the report again (after closing the IE session from the first viewing) you only see 10 lines (while expecting 11).
There's a little "dance" I do to "clear cache": I hit the "Refresh Report" icon (the "lightening bolt" icon), close the browser and then relaunch the report. This seems to tell the report to re-read the database rather than use the data that was previously retrieved.
Clearly the results are being cached somewhere - can someone point to where I might look to control that behavior?

Post Author: cfernald
CA Forum: General
Ok, I did some additional research and learned all about how CR has a CacheServer that can be controlled through the Crystal Management Console. Specifically there is a setting for the CacheServer named: "Oldest on-demand data given to a client" which is expressed as a number of minutes. From the manual:
This value controls how long report pages and prompt pages can stay in the cache. Once an object has been in the cache for the given number of minutes, it is aged out of the cache and there will be no further cache hits for this object. The default setting is 0 u2013 which means that no prompt pages or report pages will be server from cache. For optimal prompting performance, we recommend setting this value to the largest possible value without impacting data currency. For example, if the data that your reports access changes only once a day, then you can probably set this value to be 8 hours (or 480 minutes). If the data that your reports access changes every 5 seconds, and your report consumers need to see current data, then this value should be set to 0.
Based on the last sentence above, I want this value set to zero to meet our reporting needs. However, after setting it to zero and restarting everything, I still see cache entries in the CacheServer directory and Crystal is still caching report data.
What am I missing?

SAP NetWeaver Portal Crystal Reports PDF Export Problem

Hallo all,
We are working with BO Edge XI 3.1 with integration on SAP Netweaver Portal. The problem is that integrated in SAP Portal CR reports cannot be exported to PDF or printed out.
I am using an URL iview with the parameter sOutputFormat=P to run the report.
When I want to print out the report I get the warning message from Internet Explorer "The download of files from this page is for security reasons blocked. Click here..." --> Download the file. By clicking on the u201CDownload this fileu201D the report starts to run again. PDF export doesnu2019t happen.
Did somebody have the same problem?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello Ingo,
thanks a lot for Your help. I have already talked to my IT department and they are looking for the solution of this problem, too.
Is there a documentation about necessary settings in the browser to work with SAP NetWeaver Portal and Crystal reports?
The problem is that on some clients the PDF export is working and on another clients not. The settings of IE seem to be equal.
Regards,
Katharina

Crystal reports version 12 vs version 11

my company purchased crystal reports version 11 and got version 12 in error of course version 12 is an upgraded version so it was a keeper-----our hosting payroll site only works with version 11 and they said it would not be a problem if we created reports in version 12 that they could still provide data through our ODBC connection
all our reports were created in version 12 and successfully produce data--but suddenly 1 report does not work and of course they now say that they can only run the report if it is built in version 11--
so the it would not be a problem now is, i feel they changed something on their side that is causing this particular report not to read, a tek issue...but they say by grace of ... was the way the report ever worked, but than why do all other reports still work now???
is there any way to use our version 12 key product to get a downgraded version 11 to create this report?
or open the report using version 12 and export it as a version 11?
or if i recreate the report would the glitch on their side go away?

Crystal 2008 (version 12) reports can be opened in Crystal XI (version 11) and saved there. If you don't have access to a copy of Crystal XI, could you possibly see whether the payroll company can downgrade it for you?

Crystal Reports version 10.0.0.53327 supported on Windows Server 2003 R2?

Hello,
We are currently using Crystal Reports version 10.0.0.53327 with a ASP web application on Windows 2000 Server. We are in the process of upgrading the web server to Windows Server 2003 R2 but have encountered problems with the print feature in the application when printing reports using Crystal Reports. We have duplicated every setting from the original web server on the new web server down to each registry entry and DLL file for Crystal Reports but continue to have a problem. Are there any known compatibility issues with our version of CR and Windows Server 2003 R2?
Any information or assistance provided will be greatly appreciated.
Morgan

You are not giving enough info re. the actual issue. E.g.; encountered problems with the print feature is a bit "loosy goosy". What are the details of the printing issue? Errors? Incorrect printing? Etc.
Taking a wild guess here, but do have a look at [this|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do] kbase.
If that does not help, do search these forums as well as the kbase:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_ossnotes&query=&adv=true
And if that does not help, provide more info. Oh, also search for latest updates for CR 10 here:
http://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
And finally, specify how you deploy the CR 10 runtime to that server.

Visual Studio 2005/2008 and Crystal Reports versions/upgrade questions.

I've tried posting this question on the MSDN forums and gotten no response.
I've downloaded and installed VS 2008 Beta 2.   The versions on the Crystal Reports files included are 10.5.0.1806
I'm currently using VS 2005, with the included Crystal Reports. The versions on those files are 10.2.0.xxxx. I've created an desktop app (in VB) which stores it's data in a database and uses the CR 10 runtime merge modules to generate a report.
I was considering upgrading the Crystal Reports version to XI. I would like to allow customers to modify my delivered report with their own licensed copy of CR XI. I am not providing any functionality within my app to create or modify the delivered .rpt or use it outside my application.
Questions:
Do I need to update the runtime files to CR XI to support rpt files modified with CR XI? Current runtime files are being delivered with the CR 10 merge module.
I see a Crystal Reports for Visual Studio upgrade to CR XI.
Can I update the merge modules to CR XI and still use the CR for VS2005 for development?
Does it make any sense to update CR for VS 2005? Or to get the full CR XI Developer edition? My usage of CR functionality is very limited.
Would there be any benefit to waiting for the release of VS 2008?   How does that change the scenario?
How does Crystal Reports for Visual Studio fit in with the Crystal Reports Lifecycle? It's not mentioned on Business Objects End of Life Dates page . Crystal 10 has a Patch EOL of 31-Dec-07.   Does this apply to CR for VS 2005? Where does 10.5 fit in?
My main concern is allowing customers with CR XI to change the format of my delivered .rpt to run with my app. Adding their company name, logo, etc.   My testing show a CR XI report still works with my current app. But, going forward, what should I deliver and what do I need to use to continue development?

To use Reports designed in XI, you need to use XI or higher runtime, running them in older versions may work, but you may encounter unforeseen issues doing so.
If you are to use VS2005 for development you need to use XI Release 2 (11.5) runtime.
If you are going to use VS2008 for development you need to use Crystal Reports 2008 with Service Pack 0.
The support end of life for versions of Crystal Reports bundled with Visual Studio are linked to what Microsoft's lifecycle for the product is. Generally if there is a workaround for the issue that is simple enough, there will not be a patch created.
The changes you are expecting the customer to do can be accomplished with our RAS SDK which is available without using enterprise starting with Crystal Reports XIR2 SP2.

Crystal Report Error Message

I searched first for this error and did not see anything...
One (very useful) Crystal Report I've created work well then one day I'll get:
Failed to open rowset.
Details: S0000(ProvideX)(ODBC Driver)(FileIO)No data dictionary found for specified database
(Parentheses are actually brackets but don't "Preview" as such.)
I've tried re-establishing the database in Database Source and still nothing. I can re-create it
from scratch and it works fine again, then bang - the above error. I first use the BI Reporter to
setup the report, then switch to Crystal to edit and format it. This works fine for many other
reports created.
Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

1.Exactly at what stage or step do you get the error.
2.Does is point to a specific formula/object at this stage.
2.What is the crystal reports version(Help>>About Crystal Reports)
3.Database type and version.Database driver name and version.
4.What happens if a new report is created using the same odbc connection.
5. Has anything changed at the databse end.

Integrate Crystal Reports version 11.5 and Visual FoxPro

Post Author: landc50
CA Forum: General
I have developed several softwares in Visual FoxPro while using Crystal Reports Version 7 as the major reporting tool.   It was easy to invoike Crystal reports from my applications, simply by adding the Crystal OCX onto the VFP form.
Now --- I have added the ActiveXReportViewer from version 11.5 onto my VFP form.    Looks ok but it I am not sure how to invoke the reports in Maximized mode.   Seems like it will only show the report the same size as the object I placed on my VFP form.
I need to know how to do this yesterday.   I must implement a new system and I do not want to revert back to Crystal reports version 7.   Any help would be appreciated.

Print Issue in VS 2010 Crystal Report Version 13.0.1.220

Hi Friends,
I am new user for SAP crystal report,
can any one help me for
Print Issue in VS 2010 Crystal Report Version 13.0.1.220

Font must be True Type and on the WEB server where the report is being processed.
Run Process Monitor and see if your app is loading the Font....
Typically if the characters show up as a box it means either the font you are using does not support UNICODE characters, it's not installed so font substition is done but the font used doesn't have the Glyph's required or there is a permission issue with the font being instlaled under a local User account and should be installed under the Admin account.
Also, Search for Font and Windows Framework, there are known limitations with .NET Framework and some fonts.
What font are you using?

Crystal Reports Version Question

Hello,
I am developing a web site using vs 2010 and the compatible version as downloaded from here. I have come across a small issue that I'm sure is easily solvable but I can't find any references to it. When I try to run this solution on another machine or server with crystal reports 10 installed I notice that the graphs colours aren't matching to as set in the report. I understand that this is a version issue but without installing vs 2010 and then the crystal report version supported onto another machine. Is there away or an installation just so that the reports work as expected (fo this version without installing vs 2010).
I tried downloading the redist 32 bit version from here and updating the config file accordingly but when I then generate a report I'm getting a database logon failed error.
Note that if I change the webconfig file back to 10.2.3600.0 from the recently changed 13.0.2000.0 then the report works as expected, except the graph colours aren't using the conditional colours.
Am I doing something horribly wrong?
Cheers,
John.
Edited by: John Arran on Mar 2, 2011 3:11 PM

I'm not sure I understand the details here - I htink the description gets a bit muddled as it goes. E.g.; this:
I understand that this is a version issue but without installing vs 2010 and then the crystal report version supported onto another machine. Is there away or an installation just so that the reports work as expected (fo this version without installing vs 2010).
is a source of confusion for me(?).
In any case, CRVS2010 and CR 10.2 should be (as far as I know, are) side by side compatible. Based on my interpretation of the statement above, I wonder about the runtime being deployed. The CRVS2010 runtime is here:
MSM
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_mergemodules_13_0.zip
MSI 32 bit
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0.zip
MSI 64 bit
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_redist_install_64bit_13_0.zip
Are you using one of the above to deploy the crvs2010 runtime?

Silverlight and Crystal Reports Version 11.2

Hello
a customer works with Crystal Reports Version 11.2. Is it possible to create a Silverlight Application (in order to set the parameters) and then call the RPT-File? Is there a link for an example?
What I have found so far is this blog entry: http://www.global-webnet.net/blogengine/post/2009/01/06/Running-Crystal-Reports-from-Silverlight.aspx
... But nobody can tell me which version of Crystal Reports is needed.
Thanks!
Bernhard

Hi Bernhard,
From the looks of the Design in your link it does appear to be a newer version of CR. It may be version 10.2 or 10.5 that comes with VS 2005 and 2008 he was using. If it was then R2 should work also.
There is a link to Contact the blogger, ask him what versions he was using.
Unfortunately we have not done any testing with silver light so can't say if it will work. Add your request to the Idea Place link above, search first, and then vote for it if found. Program Managers do watch it closely and they will add it if enough people request it.
Thank you
Don
