FR Report_ Display Mark Symbol

Hi All,
I am using FR 9.3.1 on windows 2003 server. I am trying to create a variance report and would like to know whether the following can be achieved or not.
Is there any possibility to have "Mark" symbol and "X" or "cross" symbol displayed next to my Variance % results if my results are positive ar negative. Example as below:
Actuals BUDGET Variance Variance%
Sales 400.02 658.10 27.74 7% (Here it would display a Tick Mark in green in the preview)
COGS 179.236 150.456 -20.145 -13% (Here would like to display "X" symbol in red in preview)
I can find the formatting option where the figures can be colored ad red or green using condition but not with Symbols.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

One option would be to use WingDings/Webdings font: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingdings
You also have to make sure the fonts are installed on the FR server & PDF server I think (from memory, we reviewed this about 3 years ago).
If using Firefox as the web browser, rather than IE, I don't believe these will show up correctly so you might have to use unicode equivalents.

How to display infinity symbol in Crystal Reports using PDF as output

Hi
I need to show infinity symbol (u221E) in reports. I am using a formula and based on certain criteria i have to display infinity symbol.
If (somthing ) then show 'Error' (String)
else if something then 'u221E' (String)
This works fine in RPT file preview , but when opens in PDF , it shows ? mark as if not understood.
I used ChrW (Number) but it has until 255 and does not have a number for infinity
Can someone let me know how do i do this

Thanks for your reply
The version is JRC 11.8.4.1197
It would not be feasible to upgrade at this moment, we are already in production and need a solution for showing infinity in PDF.
Can you suggest something using crystal formulas could be possible or any other solution please .

User wants to display the % symbol beside the value

Hi all,
I have a key figure ..which is added to formula(aggregation tab set as average of a characteristic).
its displaying average correctly in the report output ,but user want it to be displayed % symbol beside that .
how can i do that ..
For other KPI ..i got the requirement as A-B/B and here i applied A-B %A B and its working fine.
What if i need to put % symbol beside a value ??

Hi Bilvanth ,
You can follow the below steps to achieve the desired output :
1) Create a formula in the query designer . Suppose your key figure is Y which you want to display with % symbol .
Take this key figure in the formula . Then from the Percentage Functions choose (%A)Percentage Share. Then after this write 100 .
So your formula would be : Y %A 100 .
2) Hide your original key figure Y and display this formula in the report . It will come with the percentage symbol .
Hope the above steps will help you to achieve the desired output .
Thanks & regards,

I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbols appeared on all my hard disk

I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders. If I click on these question marks I get a message saying ' the item can't be found'.

mpagan47 wrote: a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders.
Not sure where these hard disk folders are located that you are referring to? Finder, Finder tool bar, Finder side bar, Desktop, Dock?
More then likely they are an alias that not longer point to the orginals, thus the question mark.
I would reboot. Delete icons if an alias and just recreate by dragging from the source. Try right click (control) click to remove.

Firefox not displaying certain symbols

I can't display certain symbols on Firefox.
Example: <code><span>&equiv;</span></code> does not show anything on the page I'm working on. However, a symbol like <code> <span>&rsaquo;</span> </code> would show.
I discovered a hack that displays the symbol by changing the tag. <code><h4>&equiv;</h4></code> with an h1, h2 tag and so on, it will display the symbol. This hack, however is semantically incorrect and I don't want it in my site just so the symbol can display on Firefox. My site already has the <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> just as this one.
Any suggestions?

Okay, so this is what I did: I took the whole source code of that page http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Unicode/Character_reference/2000-2FFF which displays all the symbols correctly, but as soon as I changed the symbol tag from td to span it vanished. So it looks that when wrapped on some tags, the symbols won't display.
A little more information, I'm working on a Wordpress theme, but I did a plain HTML page with the same results. The symbol displays on Safari, Chrome and Opera, I'm yet to try it on IE.

It takes a very long time, depending on the size 8,16,32GB?
it can take over a few hours.
if it doesn't work over 24hrs connect it to a computer using itunes, and choose update, it'll update it with the newest firmware.

Display Currency Symbol disabled, but symbol prints if currency in a text formula. Why?

Our Crystal Report displays money fields (from our SQL database).
Our Crystal Reports Designer has the Display Currency Symbol feature disabled by default when writing reports.
On one report we have a Sell_Amount currency field to display:
We have this Sell_Amount field directly on the report in one section.
We also have this Sell_Amount field in a formula for printing in a different section. This formula is defined as a text field as it will either display 'No Charge' or the Sell_Amount based on a condition, such as: If {NoCharge} Then 'No Charge' Else ToText(Sell_Amount)
When viewing this report on our development machine in Crystal Designer, the Currency Symbol does not show for either the Sell_Amount field that is directly on the report or for the Sell_Amount that is in the formula (I am guessing because we have the Display Currency Symbol disabled).
When viewing on a runtime machine (no Designer, just runtime components), the formula (if NoCharge = False) displays the Sell_Amount (in the formula) WITH the currency symbol, but the Sell_Amount that is directly on the report (not in the formula) does not display the currency symbol. Why?
This has been an issue ever since were were on Crystal 8 way back when. We have never found (nor asked) for a reason, but now we need to know the reason/rules, etc. for this. We are currently on Crystal 2008 SP6 (Designer) and deploying Crystal Reports Developer for Microsoft Visual Studio SP6 runtime components. As I said, this has been an issue for years, but we now need an explanation. I have not been able to locate one on the site anywhere. Can you please explain the rules of Currency Symbol in this scenario?
Thank you.

Hi NB,
I did say to use the Advanced editor but I did not say to use it for attaching the report...
So to be clear here is what I see in the report Designer ( I put the formula into text boxes also ):
For the NoDatabaseCurrency field you have to set the currency to Fixed, Floating will add a space:
Which is opposite of what you originally posted:
"...Our Crystal Reports Designer has the Display Currency Symbol feature disabled by default..."
It's not disabled by default, please explain?
As for using the CCUR() function the help file does show the Currency symbol is on by default:
Examples
The following examples are applicable to both Basic and Crystal syntax:
CCur (200.20)
In Crystal syntax this is equivalent to writing $200.20. In Basic syntax, CCur (200.20) is the way to directly create a Currency value of 200.20.
CCur ("$200.20")
Returns the Currency value CCur (200.20) given the String value "$200.20".
CCur ("two hundred dollars")
Causes an error to occur. The CCur function cannot convert the String "two hundred dollars" to a Currency value.
So if you mean you went into the Options menu and Fields, Currency and check off this option:
[Update] - After testing this a few times it does retain the Options, current, Display Currency Symbol, so creating a new report the option is unchecked.
You are correct, even though I checked it off when I create a new report the option is checked on and obviously it's still on for each field and object. This may be a bug, testing more and checking with a few more people and eventually R&D.
So please clarify the steps you are doing?
Make sure you are running CR Designer under local PC Admin rights, right click on the short cut and select run as Administrator or check this option on:
Thanks

How to insert check mark symbol on ipad

I use the Apple keyboard/charger w/ iPad2, and wondering if there's a way to insert a check mark symbol in Notes either w/ the hardware keyboard or the touch screen keyboard

I don't see a checkmark on the touchscreen keyboard, even by holding down on the keys to bring up the optional symbols. You can go here and copy and paste. You have to go onto this site while using the iPad. You could bookmark it for easier access.

You may find this a useful reference for the touchscreen keyboard as well.

Display conditional symbol

Hi
I want to display a conditional symbol if the number of rows for a particular item exceeds a limit. For example, if i have 5 address rows in my xml file, and i want to display only 4 in the template and show a symbol if there are more records available.
My row text is:
for-each UGSchoolDetailsVORow
and my code is:
<?for-each:UGSchoolDetailsVORow[position () < 5]?>
I only want to display 4 records but i also want to display a ~ symbol if there are more than 4 records
Many Thanks
James

Hi
That didn't work i'm afraid. only 1 record was displayed instead of 4.
I have a similar bit of code in another part of the template
<?xdoxslt:ifelse(string-length(Statement)>5000, concat(substring(Statement,1,5000), '~'), Statement)?>
I guess something like this but related to rows instead of string length.

Unknown question mark symbol on Finder Window

Hi All,
I have noticed an awkward question mark symbol (?) on all of my Finder windows.
I don't understand what it means or how to remove it.
A snapshot of the problem is shown below :
Please note the grey "Question Mark - ?" on the top of the Finder window.
Any ideas on how to remove the mark ?
If the (? symbol) is clicked a dialog box appears saying "The item can't be found".

Yes. I overlooked this matter.
I was actually able to remove the symbol by (Command + drag out).
The symbol is gone !
Thanks for the helpful tip.

Crazy question mark symbol appears on certain songs and I'm asked find

I get a question mark symbol on certain songs and a window pops up to find the song on my hard drive??? Help, this blows!

The odds are good that the file is still there. You can manually find the tune (this is a pain, & I'd love to know a better way of doing this).
In iTunes, under the iTunes menu, select preferences. Make sure tab in top left is "General". Look right under that for iTunes music folder location. That tells you where your music is.
When you get the file missing message say you'd like to locate it. Then navigate to that folder. iTunes generally organizes these things by artist, then album, then song, but sometimes the album will be in the compilations folder, and sometimes the artist will not be the album artist if there is more than one recognizable name on the song.
Check locations until you find the song & select it.
Sometimes it is easier to first browse the iTunes' folder directly from the finder finding where the tracks are, & then go directly there from iTunes.
