How to hide the preview section in the crystal report viewer activex cntrl.

Dear All,
I am using the Crystal report viewer ActiveX to display the Crystal report. When the report opens in the Crystal report viewer ActiveX control, a preview section comes at the left hand side of the panel. How can I hide the preview section from the Report viewer control.Is it possible to customize the the report viewer control. Awaiting for your suggestions.
Thank you.
Regards,
Rahaneef

Just to get the terminology correct. I believe you are meaning the Group Tree(?).
Vb Code:
CrystalActiveXReportViewer1.DisplayGroupTree = False.
Also, do consult the developer help file;

Crystral reports viewer activex control 11.5 - export to pdf - misaligned

good morning
i have been advised to post here for a better response
i have a slight issue im trying to get an answer for with crystral reports viewer activex control 11.5
when exporting data from the report on screen to pdf, everything is mostly ok except for some lines which are not correctly aligned with everything else
when i do a print instead to software such as primopdf, the alignment is fine, its exactly as it looks on the onscreen report, howeverm primopdf is unable to print the whole report due to a control error & it also takes far too long exporting the data out of crystal reports
obviously, getting the activex control export to pdf working is the preferred option, else why bother using it
has anyone else had similar issues & what did you do to resolve?
i wouldnt be suprised if the answer is simply to update to the latest version
Thank You & Regards,

Well, perhaps not the latest version, but certainly the latest Service Pack would be the place to start. For CR XI r2 (11.5), the latest SP can be downloaded from here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006255422008E/crxir2_sp4_inc.exe
If that does not help, have a look at [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d3639373635463644364636343635334433393339333832363639373635463733363137303645364637343635373335] kbase.
Now, the above was created for CR 10.2, so the registry for CR XI r2 is:
HKLMsoftware usiness objectssuite 11.5crystal reports.
You may have to create the "Export" folder and PDF folder so that this looks as:
HKLMsoftware usiness objectssuite 11.5crystal reportsexportpdf
Now, Right-click the pdf sub key and click New > DWORD Value. Name the DWORD value "ForceLargerFonts" and set it to the value of 1.
Restart IIS, and try the application again.
If this does not help, let me know if this is a web or a win app.

Crystal reports viewer activex and caching?

We are embedding the activex report viewer component in one of our pages. It then runs and renders a report. It would appear that it is hitting the database once to pull the full dataset, but is actually caching the dataset, and fetching a page at a time. Is this correct behavior? Can it be changed?

Hello, Henry;
In a web application all of the Crystal Reports files and data handling are on the server.
The ActiveX viewer will handle post back for the pages but all of the data is retrieved and stored on the server so preparing each new page will be handled by the server.
The behaviour is correct and cannot be changed.
A workaround would be to export to pdf on the server and redirect to the browser as one document.

Setting report viewer source problem...

In vs2010 I go to bind the report viewer to the report source but the report source method is showing invalid. I have included: using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;
My click handler to generate the report is:
DataTable table = new DataTable();
dbOperations operations = new dbOperations();
ReportDocument pluReport = new ReportDocument();
pluData pluData = new pluData(); //use database to populate a datatable
table = operations.dispDB(); //populate the table from the database
pluData.Tables[0].Merge(table); //merge table from database with dataset
pluReport.Load(@"C:\Users\Chris\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\CRS_Inventory\CRS_Inventory\pluReport.rpt");
pluReport.SetDataSource(pluData);
crystalReportsViewer1.(pluData);
I am converting a previous project from forms to wpf and everything works perfectly fine except this one line. Thanks for the assistance.

I create a sample project on VS 2012 @ VS2013 and created a report with some static data . I am trying to print the Report generated through report viewer 2012, but it is throwing the following
"error An error occurred during printing. (0x80070006)".
I am trying to test this on Windows 8.0 and Windows 7. It is working perfectly fine on Windows 8 . The issue is only on windows 7.
Checked “Downloaded Program Files” folder. All the required files were existed.
Enabled Active X.
Please suggest me how i can resolve this issue in Windows7 ?.

Hi Arc Sam,
Please find the details information below:
You can install the control using the RSClientPrint.cab file... You can find this file in your VS installation at "\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\ReportViewer\". Below is a link to a related thread

IE8 on XP shuts down on first print of Crystal Report using ActiveX Viewer

Environment:
u2022 Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 FP 3.5
u2022 Tomcat 5.5
u2022 Windows Server 2003
u2022 JDK Version: 1.6
u2022 Internet Explorer 8 - compatibility mode
u2022 client machines Windows XP Professional SP3
Issue:
The browser shuts down after last page is queued for printing upon installing ActiveX print control for the first time in all XP SP3 environments. Issue does not occur when using Vista or Windows 7. Subsequent printing works fine after ActiveX print control has been installed once.
Steps Taken:
-"Enabled memory protection to help mitigate online attacks" option in IE and turned on DEP on OS - this is mandatory for company security policies. Issue does not occur if this option is turned off.
-Not reproducible on my end under same environment
-PDF printing works, however this is not a feasible solution
-issue does not occur for IE6 and IE7 in XP, and IE8 on Windows 7
-disabling DEP via boot.ini also removes issue
-upgrading client workstation to Windows 7 also not a viable solution
-validated version of \Business Objects\common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12 \ActiveXControls\PrintControl.dll on the BOE server as 12.3.1.684
-on client machines, added to Trusted Sites the web site of report origin. Open internet explorer >Tools>Internet Options>Security Tab>Trusted Sites Security Zone >Click Sites> Add Site by typing the web site address---> Click Add -->OK then close the internet Options dialog box.
-not applicable solution, BO XI R2 - "Blank "Crystal Reports Viewer" window - attempt to print report

Hi Seb,
It's already been validated that turning off DEP works. however, DEP is mandatory for this customer.
I did come across the release notes for IE8 at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/dd441788, indicating the following,
Turn off Data Execution Prevention group policy
The Group Policy setting, Turn off Data Execution Prevention (Windows Components | Internet Explorer | Security Features), does not currently function as expected. While the Internet Control Panel option will appear to be disabled, Data Execution Prevention is still turned on. This is a known problem and will be corrected it in a future update.
Thanks,

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
Chi

VS 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.

Crystal Report Viewer Print does not work for IE7

Post Author: ssdudeveloper
CA Forum: .NET
When I view a report in IE7, and click the Print button in the Crystal Reports Viewer toolbar, an empty dialog window opens and no print dialog appears. The print functionality works correctly when viewing the same report using an IE6 browser.
I have tried changing the browser security settings (as per http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/cs/forums/thread/3171.aspx) - with Automatic prompting for file downloads set to Enable, but this does not resolve my problem.
Is this a known compatability issue with IE7? Are there any workarounds/solutions to this?

Hello,
Please search before posting.
Visual Studio 2010 is not meant to work with Crystal Reports 10.2.

Report viewer page showing in ActiveX Mode

In CMC or Infoview, we are able to set viewing option to DHTML, ActiveX, Advanced DHTML & so on.
I need to code a viewer page which able display reports in ActiveX mode.
What I did:
1) I have set the viewing preferences to ActiveX from CMC
2) using the sample codes which uses com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.CrystalReportViewer
3) I have searched and checked the API for any method to set the view mode to ActiveX (but can't find any).
4) I have set the print mode to ActiveX
Result:
1) My viewer page still showing reports in HTML mode.
2) But my reports are showing in ActiveX mode in CMC report preview and InfoView.\
Any one has the code sample or solution?! I need some guides here...

The CrystalReportViewer class is the DHTML viewer, and there's no way to invoke the ActiveX viewer through it.
The ActiveX viewer is a client-side component, that needs to launch and communicate back to a web-app-server-side component, that mediates communication with Enterprise.
Enterprise web apps has such a server-side component, but no public API does.
The RAS report viewer sample you're referring to does contain such a component - it essentially mediates the communication between the RAS server and the ActiveX viewer - however, it's only been written against Version 10, and it's only available as a classic ASP page using COM libraries, and not Java.
The only public way to get the ActiveX viewer is using URL Reporting.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Crystal report viewer problem

Hi,
We have CR 2008 SP2 license version and We are using visual studio 2010 and downloaded CR for visual studio 2010. After upgrading when we run the application, report displays successfully with new report viewer but when i try to open another report it displays in new window rather than in current window. This issue occurs in Internet Explorer only. When i run this apllication in firefox it works....!!!! In firefox, it does not open new window for each report.
So, can you tell me this issue is related to browser or report viewer and what should we do to solve this issue?
Thanx in advance for any help.

Hi,
I got the exact problem which was occurred. We do have 3 frames in an aspx page. From the link given in one frame (left frame), we are loading new form in another frame(main frame) by giving the "target=main" in link. Suppose in left frame i have given options to load different reports. Report is loaded in main frame after clicking on one of the link given in left frame. Report is displayed successfully in main frame but after that if i click on any of the links given in left frame, page will be loaded in new window. That is the exact issue occurred over here.
By searching the solution for this problem, I got to know the reason. It is specified in community forum that in frames concept, frame name is taken "filter" by default. So i have to chahge my main frame id and name to "filter". I did that and the isuue is resolved...!!!! But for this reason, i have to change frame name in the application. May i know why this was happened..??? In earlier version i did not face this problem then why in upgraded version ...???
Thanks,

Problem in Crystal Report Viewer 2008

Dear all,
I found that the crystal report viewer 2008 (Windows XP) could not display report properly when the file extension is in upper case. (report.RPT). In order to view this report, I must launch the viewer and click file --> open --> select file name.
After rename the file name to report.rpt, I can the report by double click report file.
This problem does not exist in Crystal Report Viewer XI. Any people encounter this problem?

Paging problem with Crystal Report Viewer in VS 2013

I am attempting to upgrade a VS 2008 project that uses a dozen plus Crystal Reports to display data for our owners.
The problem that i am having is with navigating to other pages of any multiple page report using the paging buttons of the Report Viewer control. The report will load fine and display the first page. If I try and go to page two an overlay covers the screen and a progress graphic displays and will never go away. I have to stop debugging the project and restart it. I have been able to get the paging buttons to work if I click on one of the asp.net buttons that I have added to the page that run the .ShowFirstPage(), .ShowNextPage();.ShowPreviousPage(); or .ShowLastPage(); methods of the ReportViewer control. When in click on one of these buttons an error displays within the ReportViewer control that reads simply "ERROR". From there I can click on one of the asp.net button described above and the report displays and at this time the navigation buttons work as expected.
The parameters are being set via a series of asp controls and then stored in ViewState then passed to the ParameterFieldInfo of the ReportViewer control.
This all works just fine in VS 2008 project but I have not been able to resolve the paging issue since upgrading.
Does anyone have any ideas as two what may be causing this behavior?

Thanks for your reply.
I am on SP 9.
I moved the block assigning the report source of the ReportViewer to the Page_Init method, but that did not change anything.
The reports are loaded when the user clicks on a link button specifying the report that they wish to view. In the click event of the button a method is called to set the LogOnInfo for each table of the reportsource;
Tables tables = reportSource.ReportDocument.Database.Tables;
foreach ( CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table table in tables ) {
var logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo;
logonInfo.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo;
table.ApplyLogOnInfo( logonInfo );
Then all the parameters are set;
crvReportViewer.Visible = true;
crvReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo.Clear();
SetDateValuesForParameterFields();
SetEquipClassValuesForParameterFields();
crvReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo = paramFields;
crvReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo.AddRange( equipClassParamFields );
Session[ "CurrentReportSource" ] = crvReportViewer.ReportSource;
Then in the Page_Init I assign the ReportSource of the ReportViewer control;
if (Session["CurrentReportSourceId"] != null)
crvReportViewer.ReportSource = Session["CurrentReportSource"];
And in Page_Load;
if ( Page.IsPostBack ) {
ApplicationSettings appSettings = AppConfigSettings.LoadSettings();
connectionInfo.ServerName = appSettings.PrimarySettings.Server;
connectionInfo.DatabaseName = appSettings.PrimarySettings.DataSource;
connectionInfo.UserID = appSettings.PrimarySettings.UserId;
connectionInfo.Password = appSettings.PrimarySettings.Password;
startDate.Name = "StartDate";
endDate.Name = "EndDate";
trailerNumber.Name = "TrailerNumber";
location.Name = "LocationId";
equipClass.Name = "EquipClass";
txtStartDate.Focus();
When in run this the reports will populate and display the first page but if I try to navigate to another page I get a error;
Unhandled exception at line 12, column 82761 in http://localhost:63034/aspnet_client/system_web/4_0_30319/crystalreportviewers13/allInOne.js
0x800a138f - Java Script runtime error: Unable to get property 'length' of undefined or null reference
And on the screen there is a wait spinner.
This all works fine in the VS2008 project.
Thanks,
Shannon
