How to feed data into crystal reporte with "SQLQuery" method in c#?

Hi there,
I've an old app that was written in VB with some crystal reports from Crystal Report 7.
Now I need to upgrade this old app into c# with newer version of Crystal Report, so we decide to go for VS2010.
I can open the report template in the VS2010 without any problems.
But I'm running into some issue here:
the old report has multiple tables from a SQL db as the connection. Each table has a PK to each other.
and the VB code feed the data like below:
MainForm.CrystalReport(1).SQLQuery = SQLString
I couldn't find any reference for "SQLQuery" method in the C#, is there such command exist?
Thank you in advanced,

Thank you Ludek. Looking into the info you provided.

Step- by- Step on How to Load Excel data into Crystal Reports?

Hi Friends,
Can anyone send me a Step- by- Step on How to Load Excel data into Crystal Reports? Pls help me. Thanks in Advance.
Vijay

It's also important to 'prep' the excel file prior to connecting to it.
Give the data tab a meaningful name
Make sure the column headers are unique and that every column has a header
Delete any blank tabs
If you have trouble with Excel changing the data type of a field (say, a social security number you want to be a string value rather than a number so you don't lose leading zero) an alternative would be to save the spreadsheet file as a CSV, create a schema.ini to specify the data types for each column (example below) and use the same steps to connect except instead of choosing Excel 8.0, scroll to the bottom and choose Text. You have to make sure the CSV file is in the same folder as the schema.ini file that defines the columns.
Schema.ini example:
200912PUSD.csv
ColNameHeader=True
Format=CSVDelimited
MaxScanRows=25
CharacterSet=OEM
Col1=SSN Char Width 9
Col2=LAST_NM Char Width 25
Col3=FIRST_NM Char Width 25
Col4=DOB Date
Col5=STDNT_ID Char Width 10
Col6=SORTKEY Char Width 10
Col7=SCHOOL_NM Char Width 30
Col8=OTHER_ID Integer
Col9=GRADE Char Width 2
The filename in the first line needs to have the [] brackets around it, but I couldn't get it to display in this forum correctly.

How to create user editable Crystal Report with dynamic dataset

What I would like to achieve:
A program loads a report in runtime updates list of database fields (possibly includes sample data), open report in "Crystal Reports 2011" (or 2008) where user customizes report and saves it. Later on the program loads the report, fills actualized data and displays it in .net report viewer.
What I do:
CrReport = New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
CrReport.Load(TemplateFilename)
Dim Results As DataTable
DataTable is filled from a database
CrReport.SetDataSource(mResults)
CrReport.SaveAs(NewReportPath, True)
The NewReportPath is opened in the default program.
What are the problems
The report is open in preview mode (not in design).
When the field is added to the report the designer asks for XML datasource on preview.

The short answer is that it is not possible. I broke the question to other two: How to save a report that it opens without preview? and How to create user editable Crystal Report with dynamic dataset, where it is possible to find details. Key answer is Re: How to create an editable previewable report?

How do i signon into crystal report XI with server signon Account

I have a signon account to connect to SQL Server 2005, but i cannot use the same signon account to signon into crystal report XI. Is there any special permissions that i need to set? But if i use the sa account for sql sever am able to signon without any error. What could be the problem.

Thank you for your fast response, i really appreciate that.
Am able to signon into the server in SQL 2005 with my signon credentials but cannot signon into the same server when am using crystal report. And for the connectivity, we are using OLE DB and not ODBC. Also, we've been using the sa account for a while now, it just last week that management decided we signon into crystal with our own signon credentials, which isn't working.

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 input data into a table with columns?

I am trying to input data into a table. My table have 5 columns and an unlimited amount of rows. I created a program in LabView that enters the data into the table but it enters all of the data in one row. I would like to enter the first set of information into the first column, the second set of info into the second column and so on. I am including a copy of the program that I am working with. I would like the number of runs to be put into the first column (it should count down like number 5 in first row, number 4 in second row, number 3 in third row, and so on). I would like the applied voltage to be placed in the second column, and so on. Any help or information will be greatly appreciated. I am working with LabView Version 6.1 and 8.0. I am submitting the vi from 6.1.

Pondered,
I looked at your code and I think you might be making things too complicated. I've included a very simple example that demonstrates how to write a 2D array of integers to a table. Hope you find this helpful. It is in LV 7.1.

How to stop printing the crystal report with an alert message

I am having a field called "APPROVAL" in my stored procedure with which I prepared the CR. I want that if the value in the filed is 'A' then only the crystal report should print else it should prompt with an alert message.

Hi Sreejith,
Check this helps you:
Create an alert from "Report -> Alerts -> Create or Modify Alerts" with below steps:
1. Provide name of the alert (say Alert1)
2. Click on X+2 in front of "Message" field and write the Alert message you want to display.
3. Click on Condition button and write the condition If not({APPROVAL}='A') then true;
The above Alert will prompt with configured alert message when {APPROVAL} field is not having value of 'A'
Now, in a formula, write below content and display it where you want to display the APPROVAL field value:
If {APPROVAL} = 'A' then
{APPROVAL}
This formula content will be blank if the value of {APPROVAL} is not 'A'
Thanks,
Raghavendra

Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#

Hi,
I am new to the forums and posted a question which belonged to the .net - SAP Crystal reports group.
Can someone help me with my problem? following is the thread that I have started.
Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?
Thank you in advance.

Looking at the original thread, you are connecting to the text file via the DAO database engine:
"I added the text file as follow, new connection -> Access/Excell (DAO) -> select the file and the database type as text"
Thus I would use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database. See Kbase [1218178 - Error: "Logon failed" when connecting to Access database in .NET application|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313338333133373338%7D.do] for more information. If that does not work, you may want to consider connecting via ODBC or feeding the data from the text file to and ADO .NET dataset and pointing the report at the dataset.

Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?

Hi,
I am a new user of Crystal Reports 2008.
I have created a report with charts in it. The input data comes from a csv text file.
Can I set the name of this text file as an input parameter?
as I need to generate 44 similar reports with different text filenames(and data)?
Thank you.
Regards

Brian,
Thanks much.
I did exactly what you said.
Just to see any change, I first gave a bad report file name just to see if I am accidentally pointing to a different file,
but I got an error saying report not found.
Then I renamed my original datafile name and generated a report and it still generated one without giving an error.
Then I also gave a junk name to the logoninfo and printed that name, the new name was assigned to logoninfo, but the code did not error out.
It ended up generating the report.
Now here is what I think is happening,
1) The save data in report option seems to be still on even though I have turned it off in 2 locations
a) file -> Report Options
b) file -> Options -> Reporting tab.
2) For some reason the logoninfo is getting ignored as well.
Since I did not see any answers yesterday I posted a link to this thread on the .Net forum
Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#
and Ludek Uher says that I am connecting to the text file via a DAO database engine and so need to use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database.
But the link he gave me tells me to try the same thing that we have been trying..
Here is my plan,
1) I will first try and find out why my save data with report option is still on ( but it shows off in Crystal ).
2) why is LogonInfo getting ignored.
Meanwhile any suggestions from anyone are welcome.
