Crystal Reports version upgrade: Which product?

These are the versions of Crystal Reports we are currently using with Visual Studio 2005 (.Net Framework 2.0):
The reports are designed using the SDK on the developers workstation (outside of Visual Studio).
The reports are generated from the web servers.
Crystal Reports .NET Developer XI Release 2 (build 11.5.0.31327)
(this package includes Crystal Reports XI Release 2 .NET 2005 Server for limited server installs)
We want to upgrade to the latest versions compatible with Visual Studio 2010.
We want to continue generating the reports on the web servers.
Which product should we order that is the equivalent of the version we currently have but compatible with Visual Studio 2010?
Thank you.

I appreciate your response.
There seems to be several different flavors/variations of Crystal Reports both in the past and currently.
We just want to be sure that the newest one is the equivalent of the flavor we have currently:
Crystal Reports .NET Developer XI Release 2 (build 11.5.0.31327)
(this package includes Crystal Reports XI Release 2 .NET 2005 Server for limited server installs)
Is Crystal Reports 2011 the equivalent of the version we are currently using?
Does it come with limited server Crystal engines for the web servers without licensing issues?
Again...Thanks.

Crystal Report X1 compatibility with Visual Studio 2008

We are migrating an application running on .NET 1.0 to .NET 3.5. Previously Crystal report X1 was working fine with .NET 1.0 however now when it has been migrated to .NET 3.5, we are able to generate crystal report but print and export functionality is not working.
Please confirm if Crystal report X1 is compatible with Visual studio 2008/.NET 3.5? We even updated Release 2 SP4 patch but that didn't solve the problem.
If crystal report X1 is not compatible with Visual studio 2008, which version is compatible so that we can buy the license for the same?

Crystal Reports version 13 managed api's run slower than native version 11

Hello,
I am a senior engineer, working in a project of porting client code written in C++ using Crystal 11. It uses the native COM api like shown approximately in the following code fragment:-
IApplicationPtr pApplication;
pApplication.CreateInstance("CrystalRuntime.Application.11");
pReport = pApplication->OpenReport("myreportfile.rpt", vtOpenMethod);
... code to setup Export Options, setLogonInfo on database, set parameters for report etc.
pReport->Export(false);
This code is launched in few threads, and works nicely, and a very stable used code in real world.
We have ported this to Crystal 13 .NET api's and our code approximately looks like
ReportDocument document = new ReportDocument();
document.Load("myreportfile.rpt", OpenReportByTempCopy);
.. set diskfile format options, pdf format options, paramters, logon info etc. very very similar to the native C++ code, almost matching 1 by 1 line
document.Export();
document.Close();
No problem so far, and it works fine. This is also launched in multiple threads same in number like native, and works fine. We get the same pdf file generated.
But here is the problem. In native we are getting easily around 2000 reports in 20 mins. But in managed we are taking 35 mins for the same set of reports. The output looks fine and same etc. But there is a good 40-50% performance regression, and we have tried so many things, but never able to beat this 40-50% perf degradation.
Can you please help ? A few questions. First are we executing document.Export really concurrently ? Is there any waiting or serialization going on insider Crystal api's. Is this Crystal 13 managed api, a thin stub layer just passing on to native COM apartment threaded dll. Can this layer introduce such a delay ?
A few things we have tried and haven't succeeded for summary:-
1. Opened 1 dummy report in the beginning and kept opened throught, to flush any ref counted inits
2. Didn't perform Close immediately, but had another thread chew on it and Close delayed
3. Reduced the thread to 1, (in native as well), again our perf degradation is comparable.
4. Optimized the reports from various suggestion in this forum. Did better, but so did the native, and still we are comparatively poorer.
Thanks for the same, Eager to supply more info if required.

First I'd like you to have a look at the document SAP Crystal Reports Engine in a Multi-Threaded Visual Studio Application. Next make sure you are using SP 10 for CRVS.
Next, you will have to tell me what database you are using, connection type and if MS SQL, what client?
BTW.; these being community forums, you may get an answer, you may not. It may be timely, or not. If you are looking for a faster response, there is the option of creating a phone incident here:

Integrating Crystal Report 2008 Developer with Visual Studio 2008 Standard

I have Crystal Reports 2008 Developer version 12.0.0.683 on my computer. I also have Visual Studio 2008 Standard. I know the standard edition of VS 2008 does not have the bundled crystal reports, but since I bought the full version of CR 2008 separately, I figure I should be able to use CR within VS 2008. The problem I am facing is integrating Crystal Reports with Visual Studio, so I can create reports from within visual studio.
Crystal Reports was installed first and then Visual Studio. As per suggestions on this and other forums, I repaired my installation of Crystal Reports, but that did not help. I then ran Visual Studio integration manager, but when I run it, it only detects Visual Studio as the currently installed IDE, but does not detect CR 2008. I downloaded service pack 2 for CR, but have not installed it yet. I do not want to install it if it is not going to help. I would also like to avoid uninstalling my copy of CR if at all possible.
I am a newbie at development in visual studio. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rajib

Don't want to go against what Jason said as it may be correct - if we go strictly by the documentation provided (sorry Jason, Dan says...). However, here is something to try;
Uninstall CR. Look for any left overs; c:\program files\business objects\... and delete all of that.
Look in the registry for HKLM\software\business objects and remove the business objects entry.
Download CR 2008 from here:
http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
That is a trial version and I believe it is already at SP 1. Use your keycode to install. Once this is done, you should have the ability to use CR in .NET. I'd recommend you do apply sp 2 now also.

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.

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.

Hi,
I would recommend you have an empty form and drop the viewer on that form. Set the form's state to Maximize.

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?

Crystal Reports version XI Rel 2 Evaluation Copy Uninstall

Post Author: ebh
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I downloaded the evaluation copy of Crystal Reports XI rel 2, after satisfying myself that it would do what I needed, I uninstalled it. Now my version of Visual Studio 2005 will not function when a Crystal Report is to be run, I re installed the Crredist.msi that came with visual studio 2005 but it still produces an error when trying to print a Crystal Report. This is the error that is produced. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I had a similar problem, try re-registering the software

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 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)

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
