I have reoved all the blank lines and extra space but still i am not able to reduce the column size. Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please let us know the Visual Studio Version that you are using, just to inform you, VS2005 is compatible with CRXIR2 and above and VS2008 is compatible with CR2008 + SP0.
Do the report display properly from the designer? Does the Export from the designer in xls works fine?
Thanks,
AG.

Layout Issue after exporting crystal report XI in pdf format

Hi All,
I have developed a crystal report in XI version. I have set my page layout properties in the report to be in landscape orientation and A2 size sheet with No Printer(optimize for screen display) option unchecked. The problem is when I export the report in pdf and open the report in pdf for printing, it takes the printer preference settings that are set to portrait and letter format. If I change my printer prefence settings to landscape, it works fine. But, I do not want to change my printer preference settings and want that the settings that I am giving in crystal report designer must be taken for printing purposes in pdf.
I hope, I was able to put forward the question correctly without any confusion.
Can someone please help me out to find a solution ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Akshay
Always quote the actual version of Crystal Reports you are working with. E.g.; CR IX is not quite enough and the best place to find the actual version is in the Help | About screen of the CR designer.
By CR XI, you could mean CR 11.0.x, or CR 11.5.x. If you are using CR 11.0.x, update to CR 11.5 (also referred to as CR XI R2). See this blog on how to.

Problems in exporting crystal report to word format

Hi All,
I am getting trouble in exporting crystal report to word formats.
Here are my questions:
1) The exported word file will have a text "R..950" added on top right hand corner, How to get rid of it?
2) For those "Can Grow" fields, it can show multiple line data correctly in the viewer. However, the text box in exported word file will be too small to show all the content and lower half of the text is cut.
Thanks and Regards,
Cherry

Hi Asha,
Thanks for reply.
The version of crystal report designer and viewer which I am using is version 11 Release 2.
Besides, I guess it might relate to the format of report so I would like to tell you more.
Font Face: Arial Unicode MS (in order to show chinese characters)
Font Size: 9 pt
For the text "R..950" issue, I just found that some people in the internet having the same issue and they suggested that may relate to the locate. In my case, the locate is Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R.).
If it is necessary, I may send you my report with sample for test.

How to Export SSRS report into Excel format using query string

Hello all,
I am new to SSRS world.
Last night i was trying to add a hyperlink on the SSRS report (.rdl) file, by clicking which we can export the report into "Excel" format, but with no luck.
Can anybody tell me how to form the hyperlink, so that we can export the report with its current content ( I mean the report content generated by selecting some parameter values)

Hi Suman85,
Based on your scenario, you want to add a link on the SSRS report file, and then click it you can export the report into “Excel” format.
Just as kishan1901 said , you can add a textbox to your report and type in the words “Click here and export the report
to excel” .Then right-click the textbox and select Properties. Switch to Navigation tab, click the radiobutton of ‘Jump to URL’ and type in the expression ,here is just a example:
="http://vyof1884200/ReportServer$youhoo?/My+Adventure+Works/Product+Sales+and+Profitability+by+Month&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=excel"
Then preview the report ,you will see
Click here and export the report to excel
when you move the mouse to it ,the mouse will become a hand ,then left-click, it will jump out a dialog box to indicate user whether the excel file should be saved , opened or canceled.
I think this is what you want, if you have any further requirement, could you please describe it in more detail? We would give you some resolution or workaround.

Challen Foo

Excel output display issue after exporting the report

Hi All.
We are using BI Publisher with Oracle retail for report generation.While exporting report in excel format , after saving the file we are not able to see the data.
When we do a Format-->Autoformat and select one of the options, we can see the data .
What could be the possible reason for this?Can i do anything to avoid this.
Is there a possibility of checking excel log to see how the Excel treating the incoming data.If yes, how can we check the excel log(failed to find anything on this).
Thanks!!

Hmm.. Not really sure. Have you checked your Financial Reporting preferences on Workspace? Couple of things to look for:
- Export to Office Application options
- User Point of View options
I would just check the preferences and test various options.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Cells merge issue when extracting webi report in excel format

Hi Experts,
We have some WEBI reports in BO XI 3.1.
The reports have header where we are showing report name and some values which user selects in prompt.
Now the issue is that when we save our webi report in excel format, many cells get merge.
I have read many post on scn which suggest some solutions like changing the autofit width option to no and aligning the header width with colums.
Tried both the option but no success.
Is there any other way to achieve this.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Rishabh

Hi,
We managed to find the workaround for this merge cell issue.
Sharing it might be helpful for someone.
- Align the report name and other block in report in such a way that the ends are in line with the end point of any column. The only limitation is that when applying pivot to the excel output we neet to click on any of the ccolumn so that excel identify the data set.
- Second workaround is to break the webi document in two parts report1 will contain the report name and the block to show the prompt values selected by the user where as report2 will contain the table withactual data. The only limitation with this workaround is that when exporting the repot output to excel we will get two tabs in the excel sheet one containing the prompt values and secont tab containing the actual data.

RS

Exporting Crystal report into Excel with code

I have written the following code to export crysal reports to excel.

Issues in exporting SSRS report to PDF format in Report Server - Blank spaces are deleted

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem in exporting SSRS report to PDF format. It deletes all the blank spaces when I use bullet in a Text box and try to export to PDF formt in Report Server . For example
• Project submitted to the TRC
Result in PDF format:
• ProjectsubmittedtotheTRC
I also noted that when I try to export to PDF in Visual Stuio 2005 (Business Intelligence development studio), it does not delete any blank spaces and shows the correct aligned Data in PDF format.
Please help me as it is frustrating a lot
I would highly appreciate for your quick response

Was there ever a solution found for this as i have the same issue.
When bullet point is entered in a field all the spaces are removed when exported to PDF
i tried exporting to excel and it does not remove spaces, however this is no use to me as it needs to be in PDF
Using IE 7 (Don't think the browser has anything to do with it as this happened via a subscription)
Didn't know SSRS had specific Service Packs, i though they came as patches to SQL Server (SQL Server is on Service Pack 3)
This should be easy to replicate all you need to do is copy text containing a bullet point into a sql server database field and then add this field to a report export to pdf and the spaces are gone
Thanks in advance,
Mark Brunton

Exporting large report to Excel format (90K lines)

Hi,
I am trying to export a 90K line report to excel format and I get that error messsage:
Description : Une erreur d'application s'est produite sur le serveur. Les paramètres d'erreur personnalisés actuels pour cette application empêchent l'affichage à distance des détails de l'erreur de l'application (pour des raisons de sécurité). Cependant, ils peuvent être affichés par les navigateurs qui s'exécutent sur l'ordinateur serveur local.
Détails: Pour permettre l'affichage des détails de ce message d'erreur spécifique sur les ordinateurs distants, créez une balise <customErrors> dans un fichier de configuration "web.config" situé dans le répertoire racine de l'application Web en cours. Attribuez ensuite la valeur "off" à l'attribut "mode" de cette balise <customErrors>.

<configuration>

Remarques: La page d'erreurs actuellement affichée peut être remplacée par une page d'erreurs personnalisée. Pour ce faire, modifiez l'attribut "defaultRedirect" de la balise de configuration <customErrors> de l'application, de sorte qu'il pointe vers une URL de la page d'erreurs personnalisée.

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
I believe it is a timeout problem. Any idea how work around this?
Thanks,

I don't have the right to create reports. With those datas, I need grouping them filtering them, commenting them, creating TCD and distributing it. I believe it is easier exporting it and handle it. Also I don't want the data changing from day to day.
Then you are foobar'ed.
there is nothing more you can do it the SSRS export feature is not working for you, and you don't have access to the CM12 db and you can't create report. There are no other option to access the data.

Issue while exporting the report to other formats

When the rpt file created in the BO server is used to view the report through the report viewer, there are export options available to choose from. If this export option is tried as MSExcel or Word document, the alignment, page headers and all are not coming in the same way like in the one generated through the PDF.

Hi aparmar,
Which version of the Crystal Report and Business Objects you are using?
Which SDK's you are using in your application to export the report to RTF format?
Also if you are using JRC in your application, you can follow the given link:
Font size in exported report
I hope the above link might be helpful.
