How to disable highlighting in Crystal Reports 2008

Hi,
does anyone know how I can disable highlighting of fields when using the .NET 2.0 CrystalReportViewer 2008?
See as example: http://i31.tinypic.com/30ivshs.png
The problem is, that the highlighting is meaningless and thus confusing, and additional to that it also leaves lightgray artifacts (background of the field9 on the screen after highlighting. The latter problem is not happening on every configuration though, probably related to color settings.
Regards,
Florian

I do not see this highlighting in my reports, unless I design them to be as such. Questions and a suggestion:
Do you see this highlighting in the CR designer?
Is this a web or a win app?
Download SP 2 for CR 2008 (12.x) and see if this helps. SP 2 is here:

How to set Formulas in crystal reports 2008

Hi,
I am generating crystal reports in vb6 using CR 8.5 and vb6 and below is the code snippet for the same
CrystalReport1.Formulas(0) = "PrintTitle= '" & strMyTitle & "'"
CrystalReport1.Formulas(1) = "FromDate= '" & MskFromDate.Text & "'"
CrystalReport1.Formulas(2) = "ToDate= '" & MskToDate.Text & "'"
Please let me know how the same functionality can be achieved in VB.Net using Crsytal reports 2008
Any code snippet would be of great Help.
Thanks in Adnvance.
Ramnath

Something like this:
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Dim Report As New CrystalReport1()
Dim FormulaFields As FormulaFieldDefinitions
Dim FormulaField As FormulaFieldDefinition
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
FormulaFields = Report.DataDefinition.FormulaFields
FormulaField = FormulaFields.Item(0)
FormulaField.Text = "[formula text]"
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Report
End Sub

How to compare dates in Crystal Reports 2008

Hello,
I cannot figure out how to compare the dates in the Crystal reports.
I need all dates that are in the future to be displayed with the green font.
So in the formula for the font for this texbox I've tried to use different
formulas like:
If DateDiff("d", CurrentDate, {DevelopmentTracking_SELECT.Anticipated}) > 1
Then
     crGreen
or
If {DevelopmentTracking_SELECT.Anticipated} > CurrentDate Then
     crGreen
(where DevelopmentTracking_SELECT is the stored procedure, and Anticipated
is a date field).
None of them worked. All dates are treated like they were in the past
comparing to the CurrentDate. If I reverse these formulas like:
If {DevelopmentTracking_SELECT.Anticipated} < CurrentDate Then
     crGreen
then all dates turn to green, otherwise they always stay black.
What could be a problem here?
I would appreciate your help.
Thank you.

OK, got it, thank you. It worked.
However, I also need to use another field value which is not on the report, like this:
If CurrentFieldValue < CurrentDate And {DevelopmentTracking_SELECT.Completed} = False Then
crRed
DevelopmentTracking_SELECT.Completed is not on the report.
Is it possible to use it with the cross-tab?

How to overcome the Memory leakage issue in crystal report 2008 SP2 setup.

I have developed the small windows based application tool with help of Visual studio 2008 for identify the memory consumption of crystal report object. It helps to load the crystal report objects in the memory and then released the object from the memory. The tool simply does the u201CLoading and Unloadingu201D the objects in the memory.
The tool will be started once u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D executed. The u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D consumes u201C9768 KBu201D memory before load the crystal report object in memory. It means, 9768 KB is normal memory consumption for run the tool.
Crystal report object initiated by the tool and object help to load the report in memory once the tool initiated the crystal report object. Now u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D consumes u201C34980 KBu201D memory during the crystal report object creation and report load process. The actual memory consumption of crystal report object is 34980u20139768=u201C25212u201DKBu201D.
The memory consumption u201C34980 KBu201D will be continued till the end of the process. The memory consumption will be reduced to u201C34652 KBu201D from u201C34980 KBu201D once report load process completed. It means, u201C328 KBu201D memory only released from the memory consumption. Tool enables the Release command for the crystal report object. But crystal report object does not respond to the command and will not release his memory consumption.
The memory consumption u201C34652 KBu201D will be stayed in the memory once job ends. If i again initiate the crystal report object then it crystal report object start to consume the memory from 34652 KB.
Database objects and crystal report objects are properly used in the tool. The object release commands properly communicated to crystal report setup. But the u201CCrystal report service pack 2u201D setup unable to respond the commands which has enabled from .Net Tool. Crystal report objects are properly initiated and disposed in the tool. But the crystal report unable to release from the server.
The memory consumption will be reduced once the server restarted or kill the application.
Crystal report 2008 and crystal report 2008 SP2 setup available in the server.
Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 SP2, Microsoft .Net Framework 3.0 SP2 and Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 are available in the server,
Could you please suggesst how to avoid the memory consumption keep increasing and how to release the memory consumption once the crystal object disposed???

Hi Don..
My case is different one. I hope, the problem with Run time Installation setup file (Crystal report 2008 Serivce Pack2 installer) which we installed in the server.
Let me explain with Live scenario which our client faced in crystal report 2008 Service pack2 Installer.
Our client is using a application to help to print their reports. The application is developed with Windows service.
Windows service keep on running in the server. Windows service executes the client 's crystal reports( Labels Report, Stock report) which designed for clients need and the reports will be printed from printer.
10 Same type report (Label Report) will be printed in 1 minute. Reports are not printing during non business hours. But the windows service keep on running. Memory cosumption of application will be 160 MB in business hours.
For Example, On Monday the application memory consumption starts with 160 MB. The Memory consumption will be reached 165 MB in peak business hours. Then the memory will be ended in163 MB in the End of Monday. It means, The memory consumption will be in 163 MB during the non business hours. Reports will not be printed in non business hours.
On Tuesday, the application memory consumption starts with 163 MB and it will be reached 168 MB during the peak hours. The Memory consumption will be ended in 165 MB in the end of Tuesday. The same process contiues till friday. End of friday, the memory consumption of the application will be ended with 170 MB.
Application Memory Consumption slowly increasing in the server. In 5 days, Memory consumption reached Threshold value (170 MB) of the server. Application gets hanged up once the memory consumption reached 170 MB. We got the error messages as "Attempted to read write protected memory " / "Not Enough memory for process". If we restart server / If we restart the service then memory consumption of application get reduced to 160 MB.
From the above scenario, We came know that the either the problem with Application object or the problem crystal report object. In the application, We have checked dispose methods of application objects completly. I am sure that application objects are properly disposed in the application. I hope the problem not with application objects. The problem with Crystal report objects.
Application properly communicates the dispose methods to crystal report objects. Crystal report objects are not released from
the memory.
Crystal report 2008 Serive Pack 2 setup installed in the server.
As you said, If Crystal report runtime is not released from memory then memory consumption keep increase??? In service oriented architecture application, how to unload the crystal report runtime??
Do you any fix for this kind of issue??
Willl Crystal report 2008 service pack 3 help on this issue??

How to open the crystal reports 2008 in CRYSTAL REPORTS ENTERPRISE 4.0

Hi All,
Can you please let me know how can migrated the crystal reports from BO XI 3.1 to SAP BO 4.1 and after migrate how to open the crystal reports 2008 in CRYSTAL REPORTS ENTERPRISE 4.0.
can you please help on this and if document please share.
Thanks,

Use the upgrade management tool to move from 3.1 reports to BO 4.1. After migration, open the report in crystal enterprise 4.0, you will get a message saying that the report will be converted to latest version, will not be able to view from older version after converting.

How to use CRAXDDRT.DLL in crystal report 2008?

Hello All,
We have purchased Crystal report 2008 Full software.
We need to insert BLOB field into Crystal report 2008 at runtime using *CRAXDDRT.DLL*.
How can I insert OLE object and bind it at Runtime using crystal report 2008?
Is it possible to insert Ole Object runtime using crystal report 2008? If yes how and if not is there alternative to perform this job.
Please let me know your feedback.
Thanks

CrxDDrt.dll is only provided in order for the Crystal Reports designer in the .NET IDE.
1) You are not licensed to use this CraxDDrt.dll
2) Even if you were, in previous versions of CR, there were licensing implications to using the craxDDrt.dll (read $$)
3) Once your project would be done, using CR 2008, you would not be able to distribute the runtime as there is no CR MSM or MSI that contains the craxDDrt.dll and it's supporting runtime.
In your original post you say:
"I need to show Word and Pdf file in to Crystal report 2008 using CRAXDDRT.DLL";
I do not understand why you'd need to do this using the craxddrt.dll? You should be able to insert a BLOB field using the RAS SDK for .NET and CR 2008. Now, one hting you will have to keep in mind. If you insert a multipage .doc or .pdf file into the report, you will only get the first page of that document. I suggest you try this in the CR designer first. Always remember that if you can not do a certain thing in the designer, you will not be able to do it at runtime either. Giving all the limitations above, if you are still interested in doing this using RAS, let me know and I'll set you up with some resources to get you going.

How to view multiple reports using crystal reports 2008

Hi ,
I am working on vb6 project where in i am trying to generate reports using crystal reports 2008.
For this , i am making use of Interop Form Wrapper class in vb6.
I have a business requirement where in i need to view multiple reports on my screen.
please suggest me as to how this can be achieved.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Ramnath

Hi Ludek,
I am directly now using crystal report viewer control in my vb6 project.
As mentioned in previous mail, i have created a Interop Wrapper class over crystal report viewer control in .Net using visual studio 2008 and i am making use of wrapper class in my vb6 project.
I am able to access all the properties that have been defined in my Interop wrapper Class but the only stuff i need is to view multiple reports generated one after the another for a single button click Event.
Please find below the code that iam using to load and generate reports.
Note:
1. frm is the instance of my Interop Wrapper Class built over CR viewer control
2. All the user defined methods of Wrapper class that you see below will internally call the actual crystalreportviewer   properties defined in my Wrapper class
Say for e.g   frm.DisplayToolbar(True) will internally execute crystalreportViewer1.DisplayToolbar = True
frm.SetReportSource(strRptFilePath,0)
frm.SetSelectionFormula(strrecordSelectionFormula)
frm.DisplayToolbar(True)
frm.ShowExportOption(True)
frm.ShowPrintOption(True)
frm.ShowRefreshOption(True)
frm.ShowPAgeNavigateOption(True)
frm.ShowZoomOption(True)
frm.ShowParameterPanelOption(True)
frm.Show()
Thanks in Advance

How to connect Crystal Report 2008 server with SAP BI/BW server

Hi ,
I have downloaded the 60 Days trial version of "Crystal Report 2008 Server' from sap site to my machine. Now i would like to connect this Crystal server with SAP BI and want to use the data of BI Bex queries and Infoproviders.
Can you please guide me how to connect them?
Aslo how can i get the free trial version of Intergration kit ..here please provide me the entire full path of site(to download the Integration Kit).....
Any inputs would be appreciated!!
Regards,
Naween

Hi Michelle,
Older versions of CR would allow you to run CR from a network share point but you still had to have a license for each user. Current versions of CR do not allow you to do this any more, possibly using a Citrix or Terminal Server would allow this but you still need a license for each user. Older versions had a Network install option.
And as suggested exporting to PDF or some other format is fine for end users viewing your output. They are not using CR but Adobe Reader or Word etc. to view the reports, they just can't use the Designer to view the reports.
Hope this is clear now?
Thank you
Don

How to integrate Crystal Report 2008 with java

Currently we are using Crystal Report XI with our application, it is working fine. Now we are updating to Crystal Report 2008.
We have build our application in enterprise archive file. There is a web archive file(.war) file in the EAR file which contains the crystal report. Inside the .war file we have reports folder which contain jsps and rpt folder. the jsps folder contains the crystalreportviewers12 folder and .jsp files. The rpt folder contain the.rpt files. The WEB-INF which is at the reports folder leavel contains the classes and lib folder. The crystal report jars are in the lib folder and the CRConfig.xml file inside the classes folder. I replaced all the crystal report jar with Crystal Report 2008 jars, modified the web.xml and the CRConfig.xml file accordingly. When I opened the report it gave me an error.
When the following line was execuated in the jsp:
reportClientDocument.open(report, 0);
it gave me following error:

Hello Ted,
As per the samples in the link provided by you I identified that the following statement was missing.
reportClientDocument.setReportAppServer(ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString);
After adding this statement the jsp was not able to compile, it gave me an error:
ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString cannot be resolved
Now my queries are:
1. What is Report Application server(RAS)?
2. Is it required to set Report application server in JSP page? It was not required in Crystal Reports XI. If YES, then how to configure RAS inside our applications WAR file?
3. I am using WebSphere Application Server for deploying the WEB Archive file (WAR file). The Crystal Reports 2008 library (JARS) are embedded inside the WEB-INF/lib folder. How to specify the RAS server inside thhe WAR file? Is it some XML configuration file which we have to keep at WEB-INF level? Or we have to modify the existing CRConfig.xml file?
4. I would like to mention here that we have bundled crystalreportviewers12/ folder in our WAR file at the same level where reports JSP pages exits.
Thanks in advance.

How is the best way to install the latest version of Crystal Reports 2008

I have been downloading for hours all the service packs, hot fixes, fix packs and chasing my tail for way too long on this.
I keep getting errors about a file being out of sequence.... I assume there is a very loooooong list of fixpacks that need to be applied!!!    This is such a nightmare.
Is there a simple way to just install the latest version of 2008 Crystal Reports?
If I have to follow a long sequence of updates, is it written down anywhere?
The reason for this in the firstplace is because I moved to Visual Studio 2010 with .Net 4.0 framework and now none of my crystal reports work.
I am using the full version of Crystal Reports 2008 installation, not the one built into Visual Studio
HELP!!!!!!

When I try installing SP2 it starts the update and just locks up... no errors... just sits there. I let it sit for about an hour.
Is it compatible with Windows 7 ?
When I tried installing a fixpack, I kept getting errors that a file was out of sequence.   I will try uninstalling all of Crystal and just reinstall in this order:
1. Crystal Reports 2008 from CD
2. Install Crystal Reports 2008 SP2
3. Install FixPack 2.6
This is what I tried the first time and got all the errors, but I will try it again...   is this correct?
(I don't need to install SP0 or SP1 or any other Fixpacks.... Correct?)

How to change the name of a Box Object in Crystal Reports 2008

I am trying to change the name of a box object in a crystal report - 2008. This report was originally developed by consultants and requires that certain boxes be named according to a specific naming convention. I am making a change to the report and need to add a box with a name that matches the naming convention. This is so some program functionality will work for the new box. I can't contact the consultants because they don't work with our company anymore.
Does anybody have any ideas? I've tried 'Format Box', but it won't let me change the name from there. I also tried it in the Report Explorer but to no avail.
Thanks,
Joanne

Hi Joanne,
Boxes do not actually have a 'name'. When you add a Box in a report, it will be called 'Box 1' by default. And the only place this name is visible is under the Report Explorer.
Or do you mean to say 'Text Object'?

How to configure Crystal Reports 2008 and IIS7 and Windows Server 2008?

I have downloaded and installed the trial for Crystal Reports 2008 on our Windows 2008 server. I can open Crystal Reports on the server just fine, but I get HTTP 500 errors when I attempt to view a report hosted on that server via the web.
As far as I can tell, the handler mappings in IIS7 are not configured properly, although I confirmed that the Crystal Reports 2008 install did add several handlers. I read that I must configure the application pool to enable 32-bit applications. I did that and am still getting the same error. Documentation seems sparse and I've spent the better part of the day searching the forum here with no luck. What am I missing?

Don,
Thank you for the quick response!
We will ultimately be using ASPX/C#, but this simple case has a very basic report with no databind, just a single text label that reads "test succeeded" and I'm attempting to access it by direct URL (i.e. "http://192.168.99.21/crystalreportviewers12/test.rpt"). This works on our Windows 2000 server running Crystal Reports 8.
I've also tested with a simple test.aspx file with only the line "Response.Write(System.DateTime.Now.ToString())" and that works just fine. This file is in the same folder as the test.rpt file.
If I leave the Application Pool set for the "Integrated" managed pipeline mode, I continue to get a rather generic "500 - Internal server error". If I switch it to "Classic", I get the following error:
Failed to Execute URL.
