Displaying Encrypted Image File in Crystal Report

Post Author: Riaz Afridi
CA Forum: General
Hi Folk,
I have a problem to display an encrypted file in crystal report with transparent background.
I have a column varbinary(Max) in SQL Server Database which stores image bytes. I have decrypted this column before displaying in crystal report. The report display the image but with a black background instead of transparent.
Is there an answer to this ...
Thanks

I believe jpg and bmp images are supported

Display image file - BLOB on Report

Hello there,
Has anyone knew how to display an image file (BLOB) on Report using Application Express?
You prompt reply would be appreciated.

Once htmldb.oracle.com is available again, you may have a look in my demo application:

In the tab section II, you will find an image display example and the corresponding
procedure.

Image Quality In Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010

I am using the new production release of Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 and I am having an issue with image quality when adding an image to a crystal report.
The image itself is a .TIF file, and when opened in Windows, the quality of the image, which is mostly text, is very high. The image was created from a electronic PDF form and I intend to use this as a background for the crystal report, over which I will place data fields.
As soon as the image is added to the report you can see the degradation in quality in the design window and in the preview window within visual studio. The quality remains low when viewing the report in the WPF report viewer and when printing from this control.
I have ensured the "Retain Original Image Color Depth" option is checked but this has made no difference (the image is black and white anyway).
The image in the report has been left at its native size, no resizing at all. The image is 355KB in size if that's relevant.
Is there a reason the image looses quality when added to a report? Is it being compressed? More importantly, is there a way to make the image retain its native quality when adding it to a crystal report?
Thanks in advance.

The following image is the image I am trying to display. Although imageshack has converted it to a png, if you right click and save the image you can open it and zoom in with little image degradation.

The following is a screen shot of how the tif file looks in the designer when zooming in:

The second image has lost its clarity and is unusable when printing.
I hope this helps.

Over 12 minutes required to merely OPEN a .rpt file in Crystal Reports version 8.5

Post Author: Rob Kramar
CA Forum: General
Background: Our division has 3 networked, but geographically dispersed, plants; each plant runs MS SQL Server and Crystal Reports on local servers. A rather complex (version 8.5) Crystal Reports .rpt file (main report plus 12 subreports) exists and executes in one of our distant plants against a MS SQL Server database located there. I copied that .rpt file to my local server (CTXB) which has Crystal Reports 8.5 installed and which I can access via Citrix from my PC. I "repointed" that report to our local MS SQL Server database (located on a different server [CTXA] on my local network) [which uses the same database schema as the database in the other plant] by setting up a new ODBC driver, using the Convert Database Driver function, and using the Set Location function. I applied these changes to the main report and each of the subreports individually. I dropped all the links in Visual Linking in the main report and in each of the subreports and recreated each link. I did a Verify Database on the modified report (which appeared to check the main and each of the 12 subreports). I ran the report within Crystal Reports v8.5 and verified that the output is correct based on my local MS SQL Server data (on server CTXA). I saved the .rpt file on server CTXB and exited Crystal Reports v8.5. I did all the above work on server CTXB via Citrix from my local, networked PC.
Problem: When I try to reopen the .rpt file in Crystal Reports v8.5 (via Citrix on Server CTXB) it consistently takes over 12 minutes to merely open the report. Once opened, it executes with acceptable speed within Crystal Reports v8.5 and produces accurate results.
Note: If I compile the report in v8.5 on server CTXB (via Citrix), and attempt to execute the compiled report on CTXB (via Citrix), the popup with the u201CPrintu201D, u201CDoneu201D, and u201CAboutu201D buttons appears immediately, but an hourglass also appears that prevents me from clicking the u201CPrintu201D button for over 6 minutes. Once the hourglass disappears, that popup works normally and the report executes with acceptable speed (about 4 seconds) after I click the u201CPrintu201D button for a single execution. If I then close the output display window and try to immediately rerun the report (from the u201CPrintu201D, u201CDoneu201D, u201CAboutu201D popup which is still visible) by clicking the u201CPrintu201D button, the hourglass returns again for another 6+ minutes. A third such iteration results in an u201Chourglass lockoutu201D of over 6 minutes.
Note also: I can open that same .rpt file (stored on server CTXB) in Crystal v7.0 on my local PC, and it opens in less than 5 seconds.

According to the release notes, for the JRCHelperSample to compile, you must set the target runtime for the project.
To do this, either create a project from scratch that uses the Tomcat 5.5 target runtime, or go to the properties menu and ensure that the target runtime is set to the application server you will be using.

Download/Display the image files stored at KM location: J2EE application

Hi All
Please let me know how to download/Display the image files stored at KM location on portal using J2EE application. Thanks.
Best Regards
P M

You can use a servlet to deliver the image data to the <img tag, which allows you to get the data from something other than a file on the server (e.g. store the image data as a session attribute with a generated attribute key, the key being given in the serlvet's query string).

How to get the ard file of crystal reports

Hi all,
I have downloaded crystal reports from sap market place but i dont have .ard file for that how to transfer that reports into sap. How to get the ard file please help me out.
Thanks & Regards,
Murtuza Ahmed.

When you click on your SAPCrystalSetup.exe and select the path to your add-on folder it will install the files and your ard file will be situated in your add-on folder. Then you can start SAP up and install it from SAP.
So if your SAP install is in your local drive your ard file for crystal reports should be here C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\AddOns\SAP_CR
Hope this helps.

Can we import extact Excel file in Crystal report in BO

an we import extact Excel file in Crystal report in BO

Hi Amit,
There is no functionality to import the data from MS Excel to Crystal reports. However we can connect to the Excel sheet as a data source and create Crystal reports against Excel.
Some popular choices in the Create New Connection folder are described here:
Access/Excel (DAO)
This option lets you connect to a supported database type (Access, Excel, Lotus, and so on).
I hope this helps you.

Display only graph in the Crystal report viewer

Background:
We used Crystal Reports ver10 to display various graphs in our ASP.Net 2.0 Web Application (Visual Studio 2005)
We recently migrated our application to .NET 4.5 and Crystal Reports ver13 (Visual Studio 2012)
Issue:
Now, the Crystal Report Viewer control loads the graph inside an <IFRAME> which shows the whole page with the graph placed on the right bottom corner instead of just the graph image as it used to previously.
I have checked various properties that hides the tree and the toolbar and I am unable to get rid of the whole page.
Query:
Is there a way to not display the page and display only the image that contains the graph? OR
Is there a way to not render the whole <iframe> and just display the graph image inside a <div> as it used to happen before?

Hi Ludek, thanks for your response. Please refer the screenshots below.
1) CR ver10 - the graph <img> is simply enclosed inside a div
2) CR ver13 - the graph <img> is enclosed inside an <iframe>'s body - you can also see the scroll bars and "white-page-background" and "grey space" which I am hoping to hide or disable
3) We are using the same set of CRViewer properties in both cases:
- DisplayGroupTree = False
- DisplayToolbar = False
- HasDrillUpButton = Flase
- HasRefreshButton = False
- HasToggleGroupTreeButton = Fasle
- HasViewList = False
- HasZoomFactorList = False
- EnableViewState = True
4) Here's a screenshot of of the .rpt file opened in the VS 2012:
We only want to render the graph image on the UI and not the whole page. Is there a property setting that will help us achive this or should we define explicit CSS styles to hide those areas?
Thank you for looking into this!
