Help Needed in Crystal Reports 2008 Charting - XY Scatter

Hi,
I need to create a XY Scatter plot using CRYSTAL 2008.i have to create 7 graphs of same XY Scatter plots in one single report.the 7 graphs i said because i have a Cost category object which will have 7 categories.so for each category i have to show one XY Scatter plot.
However the data only changes between each category. i have to use the same objects for all the 7 plotters.
there will be a 1 dimension object and two measure objects in this.
So how to develop the report for this requirement?
Urgent help is needed.
Regards,
Kishore. .

hi Kishore,
if you Insert another Group on Category, and then move your chart into the Category Group Header, does that solve the issue?

Crystal Reports 2008 Charting Component

When attempting to create a new report using the bar chart type, I receive the following error from the report wizard:
Crystal Reports Charting Component sscsdk80.dll could not be found
Please re-run the installation to fix this problem.
I have re-run the installation, selecting additional features of custom charting, and mapping and it did not solve the problem. I have tried to manually register sscsdk80.dll with regsvr32 and that fails:
Load Library Failed. The specified module could not be found. Which must refer to a dependency (?) of that .dll since sscsdk80.dll is obviously present.
I have tried copying sscsdk80.dll to the windows\system32 directory and manually registering with regsvr32 and that fails as well.
Any help would be appreciated. Trying to avoid un-installing and re-installing the entire Crystal Reports 2008 application.

We had 2 users with this error this week, both on CR2008 SP2.
The file is located here, assuming BO/Crystal is installed to the default location: C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
I copied the .dll file to this location: C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0\bin
That stopped the error coming up and the graphs are displaying correctly. Had a similar error with the keydecoder.dll which I resolved by doing the above. Re-installing SP2 fixed the keydecoder.dll error for a while but then it started re-occuring and I tried the above fix, and the error hasn't come back.
We're on XP SP3.

Crystal Report 2008 Charting!

Hi,
I am using Crystal Report 2008 with VS2005. How to normalize the data ? for ex.
I have range of Values 7000 to 9000 for Parameter 1, Values 3000 to 45000 Parameter 2 and Values 30 to 150 Parameter 3
when I plot the graw it showing single line only, I want to see the variation for alll three parameters. Anyones help is appreciated !!
Thanks
Ramki

I have a couple of suggestions- either there is a registry entry or configuration file that I can modify to point the temp file location to a drive/folder of my choice; or the Report Document Close() / Dispose() methods should get rid of them. Neither works right now. Any thoughts folks ?

Crystal Report 2008 Area Chart Data Label Problem

Stacked Area Chart (Layer Cake) Issues:
We would like to use a Crystal Report (2008) Stacked Area Layer Cake chart to show the workload RPD's (Sum of Resources Per Day = Y value axis) and Data_Date of the study (M,Month of study date = X value axis, using fiscal year type cycle Oct - Sept).
Each Stacked Area represents the workload RPD's for a single project, or group of projects.
When showing labels or series information the chart becomes overloaded and not visible to read because there is over 400 data points.
Is there a way to break this dataset down so that values and/or labels are visible, using the crystal report options available? To suppress multiple layers and show a single label per layer?
We tried using the Color Highlight to group and display them by group and condition. The labels and series data points are still over crowded.
We also need to overlay the chart with the Average FC Totals from an additional Crosstab report. Is there a way to overlay this over the 1st layer of the report?

As I have Windows Vista x64, my ASP.NET applications run under IIS7, but for my surprise, Crystal doesn´t work under Vista x64 + IIS7. I got the following error:
An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly.

Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 Additional parameter values are needed

I recently upgraded to Crystal Reports 2008 SP3, and now when I try an export a report from the Crystal Reports Designer, I get the error "Additional parameter values are needed before this report can be saved or viewed with data. Click 'Ok' to enter the missing values or 'Cancel' to proceed without data". I am trying to export the report to Crystal Reports format. The report is getting data from a MS SQL 2005 stored proc. I tried building a new simple report (just took all the fields in the result set and put them in the details section) using the same stored proc, and get the same error when I try to export.
FYI, before I try to export I always preview the data in the report, so the parameters are defiantly set correctly.
This was working correctly in Crystal Reports 2008 SP2.

Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly:

Crystal Reports 2008 Page Header needed on all pages.

I have Crystal Reports 2008.
In my report I need the Page Header and Page Footer to appear on all pages.
When I have over 50 detail records/lines the Page Header appears on only odd pages, the Page Footer is OK on all pages.
How do I change the Page Header to print on all pages in CR 2008?

Thanks what work was creating a Page Header b and moving all header info there.
This report has 4 levels of groupings and I am finding that group effects a lot.

Need alternative for activex print control using Crystal reports 2008

I have created a .Net web application (2.0/3.5 .Net framework) with crystal reports 2008.
Reports are viewed using Crystal reports 2008 activex viewer.
On click of PRINT icon in activex viewer, activex print control download prompt will be displayed on client machine.
I need to avoid downloading of activex print control on client machine. Is there any other alternative or option to use print functionality in viewer without downloading activex print control on client machine?
Or Is there any other workaround for print functionality in Crystal reports 2008 Viewer without downloading activex print control?
Note: Activex print control download prompt will not be displayed when using Crystal reprots XI Release 2 version.
Thanks,
Jagannath

Does anyone know which files need to be registered for the ActiveX print control? We occasionally have users who somehow break their Crystal ActiveX controls, and they can no longer see the print options. In Crystal 10, I was able to fix these issues by pushing a package which registered several files on the user's computer.

Help - Crystal reports 2008 - will not work

I am a Systems Administrator for a small company of 450 users.
I am unfamiliar with Crystal reports
We have a recent problem with Crystal Reports 2008, only 1 user in the company uses it.
Since I recreated a windows profile on this users PC who has Crystal installed.
She is using .CSV files as her data sources. These CSV files are on her local machine.
She is trying to load an RTM template file, then do a refresh, and it asks for a datasource?
We try to select Excel, but it asks for a username and password to connect to the excel Datasource, and anything we type in fails.
Previously a refresh just worked.
I uninstalled reinstalled, still asking to select datasource.
I installed this originally 4 months ago and we did not have this problem.
Can you please assist?

Hello,
Sounds like possibly a Microsoft update which altered the security settings either on the CSV or the folder where it's located.
Can she create a new report off the CSV if she copies it locally? I assume the csv is on a network share?

Crystal Reports Pie Chart showing Sum 100% in Legend. How to remove?

I have a Pie chart which displays correctly but in the Legend is displayed the values with the correct percentages AND the Sum showing 100%.
I need to either remove the Sum line or be able to change the text from the report since I have to produce the report in 4 languages and the Sum always shows up in the language of the server.
the legend looks something like;
value1 25%
value2 25%
value3 75%
Sum 100% <------ this line must go or be changed (e.g. in Italian as Totale)
Running a server for each language is not an option
There are a variable number of values so I cannot overlay a rectangle on a fixed position. (awfull solution)
Is there any way I can simply turn off the Summ (not the whole legend which is needed)?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am using Crystal Reports 2008
Best Regards
Chris Ryder

Well Thank you everyone for your suggestions.
The client is very specific about the look and feel so I cannot change to not using a legend. However, the discussions serves to confirm that it is NOT possible which is actually just as useful.
In Conclusion
To restate the problem the client has a report which can be displayed in one of four languages by choice from the end user. The report contains a pie chart which displays the various segment names and percentages as a legend. At the bottom of this legend appears automaticaly the word Summ in the langauge of the the 'Server Locale' (in our case german Summe) and the 100% value.
I wished to know if it was possible to either change the language of this word (without changing the server as I do not have access) or to remove it altogether.
The answer is NO it is not possible to remove only this word or to change it in anyway.
Our final workaround is;
we hide the Legend on the graph and build it as a seperate entity next to the graph. Not ideal as everything is then done twice and we have an indirect link between the segment colours and the legend colours which is not apparent directly in the report. But at least the client has signed off on the report.
once again thank you for taking the time to think about the problem.

Crystal Report 2008 SP3 and BO XI 3.1 conflict

Hi every body,
We have a BOE system:
BO XI 3.1
Oracle db 10g
All running successful and can create some types of WebI report.
But we also want reports with Crystal Report.
1> So we install Crystal Report 2008 SP3 (without knowing the conflict error between BO XI 3.1 and Crystal Report 2008 SP3 and overwrite some .dll file). After installing, we can not create WebI report any more. And a error message box display: "DBDriver failed to load: C:\Program File\Business Objects\BusinessObjects ENterprise12.0\win32_x86\dataAccess\connectionServer\dbd_oci.dll ".
2> We uninstall Crystal Report SP3. But this is not the solution. Still error because of missing .dll files.
3> We open BO XI 3.1 setup and repair BO XI 3.1. Even we uninstall BO XI 3.1, delete all of its components and delete in regedit key. We install BO XI 3.1 again. Now we have full .dll file, not missing them any more. But when we open universe and click on Table browser, cannot fetching any tables.
We set rights for Oracle DB user again. But still error: cannot fetching.
4> We searched the solution for this problem on the internet. But not worked, no answer.
Can somebody help me bring back the BOE system state again ? pls :"<
T______T

Hi Paul,
I hope I read your question right!
Yes, It is possible to run XIR2 and 3.1 on the same server although it's not recommended by BO. You will need to make sure they are both pointing to different CMS databases and different FRS repositories, like you already mentioned you will need to specify different ports for the CMS db and Tomcat.
Why not uninstall Business Objects XI R2 in your BO development environment or a spare server (if you have one), and do a clean install of XI 3.1 SP3.
Tip: If you were already having performance issues with your XI R2 environment, I would seriously consider upgrading the hardware. XI 3.1 needs a bit more RAM and CPU than XI R2

Exporting Options in Crystal Reports 2008

I am using Crystal Reports 2008 to make my report for my users.   I am also programming a viewer in vb 2005 so the users can view the report without changing it. In the viewer I need to be able to export to excel or pdf or any other format. I want the user to be able to specify where and how to export the report. However when they press on the export button it is giving a save as dialog box, which, while it gives options to save as excel or pdf, it does not give the options such as to application, or to file, which are there in the full crystal report product.
My form gets the report name, sets up the data source and then displays it in a
CrystalReportViewer object.
CrystalViewer.ReportSource = MyReportDocument
        CrystalViewer.DisplayToolbar = True
        CrystalViewer.ShowRefreshButton = False
        CrystalViewer.DisplayStatusBar = True
        CrystalViewer.EnableDrillDown = True
        CrystalViewer.EnableRefresh = False
        CrystalViewer.EnableToolTips = True
        CrystalViewer.ShowExportButton = True
The export button is there, it just does not give all of the options that I would have expected. I see there are ways to programatically use the options, however the export dialog box that appears in crystal reports 2008 would be useful to the user here. Is there a way to make that box show up. Perhaps it should be and I am doing something wrong. I am very new to .net and crystal 2008, we used to use crystal 8.0 with vb6 for a viewer. In that version the export dialog box showed up correctly. Thank you for your help. Also, if i am posting this in the wrong forum area please let me know so i can post it where it should be.

You are doing things the correct way, unfortunately the export dialog is very basic. If you want this extra functionality, you will have to code it yourself.

VS2008/VS2005 and Crystal Reports 2008 Developer

Hi,
1.) I am using VS2008 and Crystal Reports 2008 Developer. Are there any issues I need to consider when developing using both of the above? (or with VS2005)
2.) The confusion for me is in regards to the SDK. From what I understand from articles etc is that using CR 2008 dev we can use the .NET SDK or RAS SDK for development purposes?
3.) So downloaded the sample code for RAS .NET from [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/businessobjects-samples?rid=/webcontent/uuid/80774579-b086-2b10-db91-ed58c4dda375] and tried "DatabaseLogon_CS" example, as the option. It automatically opened in VS2005 (no problem) however it would not run.
I would get an error :
Failed to connect to server "localhost".
Error returned from Windows Sockets API : 0.
and line causing this is >>> rcd.Open(ref path, 0);
Code below:
        string sampleReportPath = @"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\Samples\en\Reports\Demonstration\World Sales Report.rpt";
        object path = (object)sampleReportPath;
        // Create an instance of the ReportClientDocument.
        ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocumentClass();
        // Set the location of the RAS server.
        rcd.ReportAppServer = "localhost";
        // Use the Open() method of the ReportClientDocument to open the report.
        rcd.Open(ref path, 0);
I have been able to open the RPT file by itself. So it does 'see' the database.
Reason why it would not run?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If you're using the sample code from our website, make sure you have uncommented the InprocRAS option in the ConfigureCrystalReports method (see below). From your error description it seems like you're using the unmanaged RAS option, which requires a RAS server.
private void ConfigureCrystalReports()
        /* The following methods implement the same sample functionality in three different RAS
         * scenarios. Uncomment the method you would like to use.
         * - inprocRAS() logs onto a databse using RAS and SQL authentication.
         * - managedRAS() logs onto a database using RAS and SQL authentication from a managed RAS server.
         * - unmanagedRAS () logs onto a database using RAS and SQL authentication from an unmanaged RAS server.
         * Undocument the call to the method which applies to your appropriate RAS settings.
        DatabaseLogon_inprocRAS();
        //DatabaseLogon_managedRAS();
        //DatabaseLogon_unmanagedRAS();
