From Crystal 11.5 app VB6 to VS2003 Crystal 2008

We are converting a Crystal VB6 application into C# with Crystal 2008 (VS2003). We will be processing existing reports from versions 11.5 down to version 10.
Here are some VB6 statements, what are the equivalent in the .NET Crystal 2008 api
1) CRAXDRT.Report.VerifyOnEveryPrint = false
they did this on VB because they did not wanted any addition report refresh or verification of the database
I see that there is a EnableVerifyOnEveryPrint property, but it is not clear how to access it using the ReportDocument. The ReportOptions from the ReportDocument do not include VerifyOnEveryPrint.
2) CRAXDRT.Report.EnableParameterPrompting = false
Disable parameter prompting
3) CRAXDRT.Report.EnableSelectDistinctRecords = true
Thanks

1. The ReportDocument.VerifyDatabase will check the database is available and that the logon information is correct.
2. The closest equivalent will be the CrystalReportViewer.EnableParameterPrompt. The ReportDocument doesn't have the ability to prompt for parameters values.
3. I wasn't able to find this one.
All this information is available by reviewing the API Reference Guide [here|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/crsdk_net_apiRef_12_en.chm].

Migrating from 32 bit to 64 bit verison of Crystal Report on Visual Studio C++ App

Hi ,
I am working on a C++ Migration project in which I need to migrate all our code from VS2005 to VS2010.
And also I need to change the architecture of it, previously it was on x86 arch. now I need to port it to x64 Arch.
The problem is that we are using Crystal reports and Crystal report viewer in out project which is of 32 bit.
And to make it workable I havee to use Crystal report of x64 bit.
TO compile the application correctly Ineed some of .dll and .h files of Crystal reports(It's how we build the C++ solution).
I downloaded bunch of trial versions from the site including following
SAP Crystal Reports 2013 30-Day Evaluation
SAP Crystal Server 2013
Installation package which installs the software into the Visual Studio IDE
SAP Crystal Reports runtime redistribution packages (no IDE integration)
but in any of installation I didn't find the lib or inc folder.
Am I missing any thing here?
Regards,
Sagar K.

Good questions:
1. What is the equivalent of Report Designer COM (CRAXDRT) in Java that I can leverage to create reports?
I am not sure what you are specifically referring to when you say "Report Designer COM". The RDC had what was called the "Embeddable Designer" that you could run in a VB app and the users could design reports on the fly. There is nothing equivalent to that in any CR SDK anymore. There are "Report Creation APIs" available in RAS, but no runtime designer as such.
2. Can I use RAS in Java to trigger ActiveX controls to open/print RPT's using Crystal Reports Viewer?
Well, ActiveX viewer is gone - only activeX component is for client side printing using the .NET amd Java SDKs.
3. Does the Eclipse kit have everything I need here? Will this work with CR2013?
Yes, it has everything you need and even though the CR for Eclipse is CR 2008 equivalent, reports created in CR 2013 will work fine.
Just an FYI, there should be an update for CR for E sometime later this year, but an ETA is not even on the horizon yet.

Error 20544 Access Denied with Crystal ActiveX control in VB6

Post Author: beckybear
CA Forum: General
We have a piece of legacy software written a while ago that is in VB6 using the Crystal ActiveX control crystl32.ocx. We use 8.5 of Crystal Reports.About 50 or so users have this program loaded and it runs a single crystal report from a server location. Most days, everything runs just fine, but lately more and more we've been having a problem where our some of our users get the message "Runtime Error 20544. Access to report file denied. Another program may be using it." The same user will continue to get this error, even after rebooting, while others continue with no issues. It's never the same people affected day to day. And it always works for everyone the next day.I've read about a 20 limit on reports, but new users can log in and use the program with no problem, so if it's a connection limit, it doesn't seem right that new users would work. Also, the workaround for that I found for that particular limit problem, setting it as a temporary report, doesn't seem to be available with the ActiveX control. We cannot reliably reproduce the problem.So I guess my questions are, do you have any idea why it would work the next day without a reboot of the server or the user's machine? If this is a limit problem, where is that limit stored, or how can I test to see that it is the limit problem? What else could it be and is there anything I can add in the VB program to try and prevent this (cleanup, checks, etc.)? Is this ActiveX control still supported and recommended with version 8.5? Is there a different component we should be using?Thanks in advance for any help you can offer for this frustrating problem. I searched the old archives and found others reporting this problem, but no solutions.

Did you find a solution for this problem? I'm having the same sporadic problem with Crystal 8.5. It usually goes away for a user by logging out and back in, but I'm getting a lot of complaints. The report is being sent directly to the printer - no Preview mode as has been reported as the cause for some people.
Thanks

Crystal XI SDK for VB6

I have a vb6 application the uses Crystal v10 through the CRViewer I need to move to Crystal XI. I know Crystal will no longer support vb after Crystal XI.
Can someone point me to the SDK for Crystal XI and some examples of using the XI version of the CRViewer.
Thanks
Phil

Hi Phil,
Thank you for the info. The file name looks as though it's from our download store, just checking.
XI R2 is almost end of life and is based on old technologies and old Microsoft Framework. Windows 2008 is relatively new OS with updated framework and security settings. To make R2 integrate into the OS would have taken a lot of work and because its now past it's patchable state there was no point in adding the OS to the platforms list, better to spend the time and resources on newer versions. It's like trying to run an old Windows 3.1 16 bit application on Windows Vista or Windows 7, It won't install because the dependencies no longer are installed by the OS.
It should work but if there are any issues we can't help you directly, best effort only. And hopefully others in forums who have tried can help also.
You may have issues with remote desktop, I've seen a few problems but not sure if there were work arounds or not now.
All I can suggest is you stick with supported OS's if the application is critical or if you must use it then be prepared to do a lot of debugging, mostly security setting and permissions for various shared folders and resources. ActiveX and COM components don't play nice on Windows 2008.
Back to the issue.
Download the full build of CR XI R2 SP 4 and install it on your developer PC, requires an uninstall first:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100011802732008E/crxir2_sp4_full_build.exe
Then apply SP 5 and SP6:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100013876392008E/crxir2win_sp5.exe
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100015859952009E/crxir2win_sp6.exe
For distribution download which ever one works for you:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100000634032010E/crxir2sp6_rdc_mm.zip
And you could also use Fix Pack 6.4 to get the last update:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100013451322010E/crxir2_fp64_rdc_mm.zip
SP 6 is supported on Window 7 which isn't far off from Windows 2008
Next as mentioned, consider upgrading to Visual Studio .NET 2010 and use Crystal Reports for VS 2010, final build should be out next week or so, and start using .NET components for desktop applications. CRVS2010 is basically a full version of the next full release of Crystal Reports so you'll have full functionality and using InProc RAS ( report application Server ) will give you most of the functionality that the RDC has.
Hope this clears it all up.
One last note, search in here also or in Knowledge Base area on how to deploy VB 6 applications and CR runtime.
Thanks again

My iPhone 4 will not sync my new voice memos from the "Voice Memos" app to my computer. This is frustrating, should not be so hard, can someone please help. I use PC with windows 7 with iPhone version 6.1.3 and iTunes most recent. Thanks.

In the Music tab of iTunes, do you have 'Include Voice Memos' checked?

How can I transfer a sound file from my "Voice Memos" app on my iPhone to my iPad?

How can I transfer a sound file from my "Voice Memos" app on my iPhone to my iPad?

In iTunes with your iPhone connected, click on the iPhone device, select the Apps tab, scroll down to the File Sharing section and pick an app that plays Quicktimes ("Files Connect" works in this example, but I'm open to suggestions of better apps for playing transferred Quicktimes) and drag your Quicktime from Finder to the Documents pane for the File Sharing app. Once the file transfer is complete, go to the app on your iPhone to play the Quicktime.

Is it possible to add music from the music downloader app to the original music app?

I have a bunch of music downloaded on the music downloader app, and i want to play it on the airmusic app, but the airmusic app only shows music from the original music app, and not the music downloader. Is there any way to move my music from the music downloader app to the original music app so it can be played? Sorry if this is confusing to read

I understand what you are trying to do. It's a somewhat complicated process, but here's how it goes:
-Connect your iPod to iTunes and select it in the sidebar. Select "Apps" along the top and scroll down to File Sharing.
-Click on your music downloading app in the apps column. All the music you've downloaded using your music downloading app is downloaded as documents under the app. Select the music files you want, and use the "Save to..." button to save the files to somewhere on your computer (just temporarily), say, Downloads.
-Open Downloads and drag all the newly saved music files into iTunes.
-When the music files finish copying into iTunes, sync your iPod and you should be ready to go.
Let me know if you have any questions.

How do I show/refresh data from an Access Web App in an Excel spreadsheet saved in a Document Library on Sharepoint 2013 online

I have an Access 2013 Web App in my Sharepoint 2013 online website. It contains a query to report on its data (several, actually, but let's keep it simple). I want to connect an Excel spreadsheet to the query, visualise the data in pivot tables/graphs/whatever,
save the spreadsheet in a Document Library, and let other team site Sharepoint users open the spreadsheet (preferably in Excel online, but with Excel client if it has to be) and see/copy the data, refreshed with the latest information from the Access Web App.
Simple, surely!
The way I'm doing it at the moment is to create an ODC file to connect to the cloud-based Access 2013 database, save that ODC in a Data Connection Library in the SP site, and use the saved ODC file as data source in the Excel spreadsheet. This works and
successfully keeps everything 'in the cloud' but I can't get it to refresh in Excel Online, and if I open the spreadsheet in Excel Client I have to enter the database password every time to refresh it. I don't really want to issue this password to everyone
who might want to view the data. There must be a better way than this ODC method, I suspect.
Googlings on this have led down various blind alleys - Excel Services, PowerPivots, Web Parts - but I'm stuck on which to follow through. Please, someone, point me to an article/book/website that explains how to do this step-by-step in simple language..
thanks
Jonathan

I don't see any quick way of achieving it - at least there's no such functionality exists in SharePoint. All you can do, develop an event receiver that will update the fields in the list item once the excel file is added/updated. You can use OpenXml API
to manipulate the excel file.
Thanks,

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ?

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ? iPad only prints 4x6 on full size paper. It's an HP 8600.

I also have this problem printing photos from an iPad to an Epson WF-2540 printer. It prints only 4x6 and without border (so print starts at extreme top left corner of paper). Borderless printing is not selected on printer. Printing a square photo just crops to 4x6 size.

How do I download a movie from my ipad2 video app to apple tv

How do I view a recently downloaded movie from my Ipad2 video app to Apple TV?

If it is from the iTunes store you can watch it from iCloud on ATV. If it is not from the iTunes store the next best option is to add it to your local copy of iTunes and have ATV play it from there. You can always do it from AirPlay but that is a very error prone and degrages the quality.

Restarting videos works and looks like video is getting deleted.

You might want to report that to Apple instead of to the other users in this forum.

How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?

Hello all,
How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?
When I go here: Mail > Preferences Mail > Accounts
I got the message that I needed to delete it from my Internet Accounts.
When I go here: System Preferences > Internet Accounts > select the account >
I cannot select or click the minus sign on the bottom left to delete the account because it does not appear in the list.
Yet the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
The email account no longer appears in the left column where all my email accounts are in Apple Mail as I have deleted that domain and no longer use it, so the email was deleted at the server level. However, again, the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
This is driving me bananas!
Thank you for any help you can provide!
~ Angela

If you haven't already done so, please quit and relaunch Mail. See whether the account goes away.

There is not now, nor has there ever been a version of flash for any iOS device.
Adobe has abandoned mobile flash, so there never will be.
Browsers like iswifter or photon may work for you, but don't hold your breath.
Check app store for an app of whatever game you want.

I changed my email on my Apple ID and now I can't purchase anything from iTunes or the app store. How do I fix that?

Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if it then works.
