How do I print a report exported to Crystal format

I have CR.NET 9. I would like to export a report to the Crystal format, then later have another app print it. How do I do that?
Thanks
Craig

Look at the sample wiki referenced in my original post. There is a pringing sample there - web, win, C# and VB...
Also, [this|http://www.businessobjects.com/global/pdf/dev_zone/VS2005_Walkthroughs.pdf] article has hte info you are looking for (the title says VS2005, but the prionting is identical in any version of .NET).

This is usually a function of the driver you're using. Have you looked in the various PDEs for black and white or grayscale? What kind of printer are you using?

How to develop/print a report wider than 8.5 inches, why cant we landscape

Hi All Gurus,
I am new to Oracle Reports. I have a problem, I have a report that has rows longer than normal A4, A5, A6 paper width, so report lines either tend to go on next page or on next line of the same page. Also Oracle Report is not allowing me to print report in landscape mode, why this limitation ? I am wondering, cuz in older character based tools (Foxpro, Informix-4GL), we could easily print wider reports on a line printer which always had a capacity of 132 characters (and in condensed mode, 224 characters). So only small (and very simple) reports were printed on regular paper of 80 characters (8.5 inches wide), but for almost all real use reports we were able to use 132 (224 in condensed) characters paper.
How can we do this ith Oracle GUI report builder?. Why are we limited to 80 character paper size? why cant we print report in landscape mode? It is not, in any case, allowing me columns that go beyond 80 characters (8.5 inches) on a line. If this is an Oracle limitation, I would say Oracle Reports cannot be used for actual reporting, it is just a fancy with GUI and colors!!!!!
Can anybody answer my questions? please tell me an immediate solution.
Thanks in Advance

You can go to Object Navigator, under Layout Model, click the Main Section icon to open the property, change to Width from 8.5 to 11 and Height from 11 to 8.5. Do the same for Header/Trailer Sections if needed.
At report printing, choose Landscape Orientation.

How do I print multiple reports to a directory at the same time

I'm trying to print a list of monthly reports to a directory by using the code below. The first part of the code runs a query to select Business Units that will receive the reports. The idea is to cycle through this list and print one report for each
Business Unit. These vary from month to month. I create a record set from that query. Where I'm getting stuck is in trying to pass the Business unit selected in the first query to the query that runs the final report. I end up getting multiple
reports with different titles but the content is the same, so I'm doing something incorrect. Here is the code. Any help would be greatly appreciated. QryNewMOR runs the report.
Private Sub Cmd012815_Click()
    Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
    Dim strSQL As String
    Dim strPathName As String
    Dim blRet As Boolean
    Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
    Dim stDocName As String
    Dim strSavedSQL As String
    Dim strBus As String
    Dim strExec As String
    If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False
    stDocName = "RptNewMOR"
    strSQL = "SELECT [Business Unit Long],[Responsible Executive] FROM tblRespExec WHERE (((tblRespExec.SelectedPrint)=True));"
    Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
    If rs.RecordCount < 1 Then
        MsgBox "No Bus lines or Execs selected", vbCritical, "Error"
        Exit Sub
    End If
   'CreateFolder "C:\Test MOR"
    'store the current SQL
    Set qdf = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("QryNewMOR")
    strSavedSQL = qdf.SQL
    qdf.Close
    Set qdf = Nothing
Do
    strBus = rs![Business Unit Long]
    strExec = rs![Responsible Executive]
    Set qdf = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("QryNewMOR")
   strSQL = strSQL + Left(strSavedSQL, InStr(strSavedSQL, ";") - 1) & " and (qryNewMOR.[Draft Distribution List]=" & rs![Responsible Executive] & ");"
    strSQL = strSavedSQL
    qdf.SQL = strSQL
    Debug.Print strSQL
    qdf.Close
    Set qdf = Nothing
    strPathName = "C:\Test MOR\" & rs![Business Unit Long] & ".pdf"
    DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, stDocName, acFormatPDF, strPathName
    rs.MoveNext
Loop Until rs.EOF
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
'restore the SQL
Set qdf = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("QryNewMOR")
qdf.SQL = strSavedSQL
qdf.Close
Set qdf = Nothing
End Sub
Dean J. Waring

I'm trying to figure out how to combine the two and am obviously not succeeding. Do you have a suggestion on how to make that work?
Hi Dean,
I am not completely sure of what you want. I suppose you want to modify the SQL definition of QryNewMOR, and use that modified query for the report?
In that case, and in the line of your program, I would make a QueryDef: QryStdMOR, with the "standard" strSavedSQL (so: strSavedSQL =  QryStdMOR), construct strSQL in the same way, and assign this to the SQL definition of QryNewMOR.
Thus, in your code at the very beginning, skip the line strSQL = strSavedSQL.
strSQL = Left(strSavedSQL, InStr(strSavedSQL, ";") - 1) & " and (qryNewMOR.[Draft Distribution List]=""" & rs![Responsible Executive] & """);"
' skip this line: strSQL = strSavedSQL
qdf.SQL = strSQL
Within the loop you should not start with strSQL = strSQL & ...., because strSQL will retain then its value from the previous loop, and increases and increases...
Finally, I have added some double doublequotes around rs![Resposible Executive], because string expressions must be enclosed by double doublequotes (or eventually a single singlequote).
Imb.
strSQL = strSQL + Left(strSavedSQL, InStr(strSavedSQL, ";") - 1) & " and (qryNewMOR.[Draft Distribution List]=" & rs![Responsible Executive] & ");"
    strSQL = strSavedSQL
    qdf.SQL = strSQL

How Do I Print my reports Horizontally using Coldfusion Report Builder

Hi-
I want to print my reports Horizontally rather vertically using Coldfusion Report Builder. I am using a very simple query
SELECT
      Zones.Zone_id,
      Zones.Zone_name,
     Count(employees.cnic) as Employees
FROM Zones, Employees
WHERE Zones.zone_id=Employees.zone_id
GROUP BY Zones.zone_name
Or say Daily/Monthly Zone Sale with Zones in Rows and Dates/Months in Columns
Thanks

Have a look at my response to your post in the Report Builder sub-forum.

How to select printer for reports 11g?

I just upgraded my forms and reports from 6i to 11g, before printing the reports to printer,
I was using
WIN_API_DIALOG.select_printer(:DESNAME,:PORT,FALSE);to get printer name from network and set :DESNAME.
This didn't work in 11g, what's the alternative function to perform this ?

Problems with the report export in PDF format

Hi All,
I am new to this forum.
I'm developing a web application that uses Java Reporting Component (JRC) to display crystal reports.
I have three problem:
1) I want, after entering the filters in a jsp, to print a report in PDF format (WORD) without opening it
with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word). The class of API JRC used for export is ReportExportControl.
2) I want to print multiple reports one after the other to reduce the time (possibly joining two or more reports into a single PDF)
3) I want to insert, in the jsp page filters, the number of pages to print from the same report (without
opening it with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word))
Can anyone help me? or can give a simple java code to do the same.
Thanks in advance.

Report exported in Crystal Reports 9 won't work in Crystal Reports XI R2

Hello,
I have a .NET client that has been using Crystal Reports 9 for some time to generate reports and then exporting them to Crystal Reports format (.rpt), and saving the report including the data so that the user can open it at a later time and preview/print. This has been working fine so far.
Now we're in the process of updating our system to Crystal Reports XI R2. When a user selects an old report (that was originally created in CR9) to preview, CR XI prompts the user to submit a value for a string parameter that was originally submitted to the report when it was generated in CR9 but the value was set as either Nothing or the empty string. If we try to print the report then CR XI throws this error (probably because of the same parameter):
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ParameterFieldCurrentValueException: Missing parameter values. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004100E): Missing parameter values.
at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.ReportSourceClass.GetLastPageNumber(RequestContext pRequestContext)
at CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.EromReportSourceBase.GetLastPageNumber(ReportPageRequestContext reqContext)
--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ConvertDotNetToErom.ThrowDotNetException(Exception e)

at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.PrintToPrinter(Int32 nCopies, Boolean collated, Int32 startPageN, Int32 endPageN)
Is there a solution to this? I've tried to submit a value to the parameter in code and then exporting the report again but that doesn't work. Any help appreciated.

How To Run a Parameterized Report Stored in Crystal Enterprise on demand

I have been integrating into Crystal Enterprise 10 for many years now with no problem. We use .net to schedule and run reports as well some administration tasks. Users can view reports through our asp.net web application using the crystal viewers.
However, I now have a task that requires us to run a report that is stored in CE on demand. This can NOT be done through the viewer because it will not have direct user interaction. The crystal report has to be bundled with other documents and then displayed to the user in a single PDF. I have everything working right now if the report has already been scheduled and ran through CE.
What I can't figure out to do is how to actually run the report in CE on demand and immediately get the results back. I can't schedule it (even for immediate running) because I can't have it backed up in the job server queue. If the report was local on the machine that Integerate with CE, I think it is as simple as loading document, setting parameters, and calling refresh. However, I need this to happen in CE with the RAS or PageServer server. In other words, the execution of the report needs to occur on server and I need the end results.
I have scoured the Net looking for an example but everything either talks about scheduling through Job server or on demand through the viewer.
Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks for the answer Elaine, but I am still not quite there.
We already had interactive on-demand report viewing working through our web app.
The problem is that I need non-interactive on-deman report running. Let me explain the process a little more to help paint the picture of the process we have.
1. While working in our application, the user selects an "information dump" on the selected the employee. This dump is information from a number of different places and document types.
2. The application then goes to each of these different information areas and converts the information to PDF format.
3. Application stitches all the individual PDF files into a single PDF which is what is returned to the user via the web application. The delivery mechanism cannot change due to requirement limitations.
Currently, the information is coming from multiple MS Word mailmerge documents merged "on-the-fly" with data for the employee and a stored HTML worksheet that is also converted to PDF.
We now have to add a PDF version of 2 reports that are ran when the user requests the information dump.
I already have the code to connect to CE and get a reference to the RASReportFactory. We do this today using the interactive viewer. However, we use the viewer to display reports that have already been scheduled and ran. This means we simply make a call to RASReportFactory.OpenReportSource to get the source for the viewer.
We now can't have a viewer in this process. I found the call to the method OpenDocument on RASReportFactory to get a handle to a ReportClientDocument.
I know how to properly set the values for the report arguments as well as the database information.
What I don't see is a method to tell it to run the report. I see Save and SaveAs but this simply saves the document by to CE or to a local file with the changes I made to parms and db info.
What do I call to tell it to execute the report so I can turn around and export it to PDF? Thats the million dollar question.

Show user entered date when ssrs report exported to csv format

ID,EmpFirstName,EmpLastName,Location

Hi RH,
You can add two textbox at the top outside the tablix and using expression to get the parameter value use have selected to display in the textbox as blew:
TextBox1: =Parameters!Date.Value
TextBox2: =Parameters!To.Value
For Multiple value parameter you can use the expression like : =Join(Parameters!Date.Value,",")
You can rename the two textbox' name in the properties as "Date" and "To" then the two textboxs will display like belkow in the CSV report:
Date                 TO
01/01/2015     01/31/2015
ID   EmpFirstName    EmpLastName   Location
1      Tom                  Garry                  NY
2      John                 Graham               NJ
3      Ron                   Lorrie                 CA
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
