Having a print problem on a mailing label report using the merge modules.

Crystal Reports 2008 v 12.1.6.1116
when I print directly from Crystal Reports designer, the labels print correctly. If I print the report from our application software using the Crystal merge module, the top of page margin is not the same.
I am using Crystal Report 2008 Fix Pack 1.5 Merge Modules.
Any idea what might be causing this ? I do not see any settings in the CrystalReportViewer that would cause the top of page margin to change.
Note: We were using a previous version of Crystal Reports, version 11 using the merge modules and it worked just fine. After changing to the 2008 merge modules we are running into this problem.

Which Version of VS.NET you are using?
       VS 2008 v 9.0.30729.1 SP
. Which application you are developing desktop or web?
       Desktop
. Error messages you are facing?
        No error message, just the top of page margin is wrong
. Are you facing this error in development machine?
       The mailing label report works just fine printing directly from the Crystal Reports 2008 Design application. However is I try to print the exact same report using the CrystalReportViewer in the merge module, the top of page margin is different. Basically printing from the designer, there is some spacing at the top of the page, printing in the vb.net app the spacing at the time of is missing.
. Are you trying to deploy this application?
       Yes
. Operating System?
        The OS I have tried this on is XP Pro SP3 and also Vista Business SP1
. How are you deploying your application?
        We build a installshield setup to install the merge modules

Exporting a mailing label report to PDF shifts the address off ...

Hi.
The report is created using the wizard "File->New->Mailing Label Report". Everything looks good at the preview. Following are the dimensions:
- 4 X 1 inches
- 2 labels across, 10 down
- Paper would be 8-1/2 X 11 inches (Letter sized) (labeled) paper
- 0.5 inches page margin on top and bottom
- 0.156 inches left & right margins
- Horizontally .188 inches between labels
- Vertically NO space between labels
For this, in the Crystal Reports Designer, I used Mailing Label Type = "Address (Avery 5261)".
Issue
However, when trying to export the report to PDF and when we print the report, addresses go off the labels (shifts up slightly starting from the begining). It looks like the font sizes, etc are not maintained. Therefore, visually, addresses shifts up gradually and does not fall into labels.
Other specific details
The first address was too low, I mean after .5 inches top margin, this first address started to appear .4 inches down the margin. If we measure from top of one address to the top of next one, it is about .9 inch and not 1 inch.
Later I tried this [template|http://www.worldlabel.com/Pages/crystal-reports.htm] as well. I faced the same issue.
Had anyone worked with mailing labels report faced similar issue?
I appreciate your help

Repeating same address in a Mailing Label Report

I have created a mailing label report that generates address labels from a database. I would like to pass a parameter to this report that would allow me to indicate how many occurances of each address is to be printed. For example my address file contains 10 unique addresses, I want to create 4 labels for each address. This would give me a total of 40 labels. (keeping the 4 like addresses together). not by printing the report 4 times.
Thanks for the help.

Hi Dale Nelson,
I found some information about Label Looping in Crystal. I never tried it but I think it would help you.
How to Create a Looping Label Report, Using CR9's Basic Syntax
1) Create a New Report using the Label Expert, utilizing the desired label size
2)
a) insert several fields into the label details section that will create many many details lines for the report: there will have to be   one details line for each label potentially created: these fields will not be shown in the label
b) the above fields can come from any table..in this sample report, the Customer ID field and the Order ID field are taken from Crystal's Xtreme sample database
3) The details section must have a numeric counter assigned to each record. If there is no database field that is a numeric counter, one will have to be created in the database (in this example, the numeric counter is the Customer ID)
4) create a parameter field in which the user is prompted to enter the # of labels they wish for each client/customer
insert this parameter onto the report header
5)
a) create a linking formula to insert on the details section of the main report. The formula will read something like:
        Shared x as number
        x = (x + 1/{?lblnum})
        formula = truncate(x)
b) if the client enters 6 as the number of labels they wish for each client, the above formula will be incremented by 1, for each 6 times the formula is calculated on the details sections...this ensures that the subreport is ran 6 times for each client and thus six labels are produced
6) Insert a Subreport that will contain the fields and structure of an address label
7) create a link to the subreport: from the Linking Formula (above) to the client ID (customer ID number field) in the subreport
8) blank main report details lines will now have to be suppressed. In the subreport create a formula @Null Check similar to:
whileprintingrecords;
shared numbervar check;
if isnull({Customer.Customer Name}) then check := 6
Insert this formula on the subreport details section and suppress it
9) in the main report, go to format the details section and select the Suppression formula button. Insert a formula similar to:
whileprintingrecords;
shared numbervar check;
check =6
the above two steps will ensure that main report details sections will be suppressed after the labels are printed
Notes:
> There will be one blank label printed at the end of the report.
> The order of the labels will be in the order specified by the database: if a different order is desired, this should be specified using a query or stored procedure at the database end
> A successful link is created between a manual running total [@link formula] and the subreport's Customer ID field. This link is possible as the [@link formula] formula is written in Basic Syntax, and hence is processed before the subreport link. This is not possible using earlier versions of Crystal, as the formula editor did not have the option to use Basic Syntax.

I am try to print a sheet of avery labels all with the same info on them. Does anyone know an application that I can do it in?

I am trying to print a sheet of avery labels all with the same info on them. Does anyone know an application that I can do it in?

Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums! This is your first question, right?
This took a long time for me when I was printing my Avery labels. Pages doesn't seem capable of doing it, but you can do it on MS Word 2011. Try searching Google for more alternatives.

i been having sim card problems with my iphone 5. am i the only one?

Hello,
I'm also had problems with Iphone 5 , it read no sim card, i solved problem by removing sim card and cleaning with alcohol and q-tip and installing back.
Shut down phone.
On the side of phone , you will see a small pin hole, insert paper clip and sim card will come out, be careful to do it over a clean towel as not to let drop on floor, make sure your hands clean while doing this.
Insert sims card back and turn on, it should work again.
Good Luck.

All of sudden my Apple Mail won't transfer photos from Mail to iPhoto using the "add to iPhoto" feature in the drop down menu

All of sudden my Apple Mail won't transfer photos from Mail to iPhoto using the "add to iPhoto" feature in the drop down menu. Do you know how to fix this?

mmchisholm - just so you know you're not alone, I too am having the exact same issue as of latest software update bundle. Have to manually add each photo until Apple issues solution or minor software update.

Mail wants to use the restricted Service "Search With Google."

This is the response/error I see when I try to do a Google search from an email message - "Mail wants to use the restricted Service “Search With Google.”"

Interesting - I just created a new user account I named "Test", and tried "Search With Google" in Notes and it worked fine in this new account. Without any additional change, I went back into my normal user account, and tried to use "Search with Google" on the highlighted word, and it pulled up the Google search fine as well. No reason I can think of that these actions would have resolved the problem - e.g., either the creation of the "Test" account, or switching between this "Test" account and my normal account. Possibly creating new account caused a cleanup of the Safari preferences to point to version 6.0.(essentially reset the default)
Would be curious if droow007 solution works for others. Definitely quicker than the route I went :~)

Problems creating a web service that uses the report generation toolkit

Hi,
Im trying to develop a web service using labview 2013.
I create a html form that is correctly communicating with my labview method and part of the web service functionality is to create a report from the data obtained in the html form published.
I realized that using the report generation toolkit inside of the web service method the server cannot generate a report. ( If I run the same Vi before publishing the web service it works on the server but it doesnt work after I deploy it)
I thought that maybe Im unable to use the report generation toolkit VIs inside of the web service because Im not incluiding the (dynamic VIs labview uses when they run), I tried to add the excel dynamic library to the proyect but with no success.
I also tried to use VI SERVER to call a VI that generates the report using the report generation toolkit in the method that runs when the web service is call but it doesnt work either.
How can I deploy a web service able to use the report generation toolkit ?, how can I deploy a web service able to use VI server ?
Any help is really appreciated.

The issue you are running into is actually a limitation intended by Microsoft. They don't want windows services to be able to call into the ActiveX interface for Microsoft Office for security reasons. If you are deploying your web service to the NI Application Web Server on Windows you will run into this problem since the web server is a Windows Service.
While I haven't tested this, you may be able to work around this by packaging your Web service with a LabVIEW EXE rather than deploying to the NI Application Web server.

Hi I Pant,
The idea that crossed my mind was to tie each of the lines coming from/going to "your device" to two of the DIO lines. Configure one these two ports as input, the other as output.
When you want to read the state of the line, read from the line configured as input. Similarly, use the other port when it is time to write.
Provided "your device" uses tri-state drivers/receivers, or can be used in a "wired-OR" configuration, this may work.
What is "your device"?

Can I print mailing labels with a "The ____ Family" as the name?

I know how to print mailing labels from my contacts, but I would like to be able to print the labels showing only the last name of the person inserted into "The ___ Family" in life of the full name. Like The Smith Family rather than Bill Smith. I was able to do this using outlook and my old PC. As a new Mac user, I have been unable to figure this one out. Any help would be much appreciated.

I used (and continue to use) AppleWorks for years but when I need a new spreadsheet document, I build it in Numbers whose unique drawback is that it's slow.
Those which took time to search in existing threads know that there are at least two easy ways to create labels with Pages and Numbers.
