How to Obtain Listing of Crystal Reports History Limits

Post Author: djp
CA Forum: Other
Does anyone know of a way to extract a listing of the History Limits settings for all reports from the database?
I've looked throught he SDK documentation and I am unable to determine where that information is stored and how it could be extracted.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Yes and Yes. You can get the latest version of Crystal for Visual Studio here: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824. Download the "Install Executable" for integration into VS - the others are for runtime installs depending on how you install your application.

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 to incorporate ratio in Crystal Report?

Hi,
I am new in Crystal report and had no technical background.
I would like to know how to build ratio in crystal report? The draft layout as below:
                                              (RM)        %
Sales Revenue                        A           (A/A)*100
Cost of sales                           B            (B/A)*100
Where A and B are formula in crystal report.
Regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Ratio is just a result by division. If you take one field over another as a denominator, you got your ratio.
Thanks,
Gordon

You should go on a Crystal reports forum for your version of Visual Studio and Crystal reports probably.

InfoSet fields not listed in Crystal Report Creation Wizard

Hello Experts,
We successfully build few reports using in Crystal Reports 2008 using SAP Integration Kit and InfoSets from ECC 6. But we run in some problems with InfoSet MIRO_PO as InfoSet's fields which are not included into Field Groups are listed in Crystal Report Creation Wizard as available fields. It looks like it may be related to Field Groups/Data Fields definition in Change InfoSet transaction SQ02.
Did somebody run into similar problems? Is it mandatory to include all required fields into InfoSets' query groups?
I can't find related documentation.
Thank you in advance,
Sergey Vlasov

Hi Sergey,
I'm having the same problem, i don't understand your solution very well, can you explain a little bit more?

How do I deploy my Crystal Reports webapp???

Post Author: figue
CA Forum: .NET
Hi, i've developed a web application using Visual Studio .Net and using the Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005. I've read almost all the "how-tos" that are available on the net to solve my situation, but i couldn't manage to deploy my application.
I have no physical access to the web server, and i cannot execute a .exe or a .msi installer (i cannot use the "merge modules" solution).The only solution i think may help me is copying the Crystal Reports dll's to my BIN folder and using those dll's instead of using the GAC references.Here's what i've done:- I copied all the dll's that I found on Program Files/Common Files/Business Objects/2.7/Managed into my app's BIN folder.- I deleted all the references to the Crystal Reports' assemblies from my solution's property pages. FIRST PROBLEM: The references were deleted, but when I closed the solution, and opened it again, all the references returned.. After trying again and again, they finally dissapeared.- I tryied to add the references to the dll's that were into my app's BIN folder, but when I browse the file, select it, and accept the dialog box, nothing happens. No reference is added into the References window.- I tryied to add the GAC references again, to return to the previous state, but it's the same, i select the reference from the GAC and when i accept the dialog box, nothing happens.- I thought that maybe my pc has some troubles with the installed versions of crystal reports (i hace 8.5, XI and CR for VS 2005 installed), so i created a Virtual Machine, Installed VS 2005 and created a new web application with one .aspx and one .rpt and tryied to change the GAC's references for the BIN's DLLs. The same thing happend.
Can somebody please help me? I'm gettin' really tired of trying and trying things and not gettin' in solved.
Regards from Argentina

Unfortunately, xcopy deployments of Crystal Reports .NET assemblies won't work, since they rely on some dll's via COM-Interop.
Those components have to be registered on the server - via merge modules install - and regretably, you're restricted from doing so.

How to interpret or calculate Crystal Report Performance Timing?

HI,
I have been trying to interpret the Performance Information/Performance Timing of a Crystal Report. When I access this information from Crystal designer menu I see several fields but I don't know exactly which one gives you the total execution time in miliseconds or how do you calculate the total time using the fields.
Help to interpret the following information will be appreciate. Example:
MainReport.rpt
Open Document:   0 ms
Run the Database Query:   703 ms
Read Database Records:   92 ms
Format First Page:   949 ms
Number of pages formatted:   2
Average time to format a page:   474 ms
Number of page starts generated:   13
Average time to generate a page start:   13 ms
Subreport.rpt
Run the Database Query:   4 ms   For all instances
Read Database Records:   2 ms   For all instances
Number of page starts generated:   3
Average time to generate a page start:   0 ms   For all instances
Number of subreport instances formatted:   1
Time to format all subreport instances:   38 ms
Thanks!

How do I open a Crystal Report from Microsoft Access?

I'm looking for step-by-step instructions on how to launch a Crystal Report from a Microsoft Access application (for a dummy like me).
My Crystal Report uses a connection to the Access database as the data.
I have Microsoft Access 2002 with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.5.
I have Crystal Reports 2008 CR Developer 12.
I'll need to know where to find the Visual Basic code references, and/or ActiveX Controls, if applicable.
Thanks
Janeen

I concur with Don. Just a bit of help - a sample VBA app is here;
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006013432008E/rdc_vba.exe
But as Don mentioned, you will have to downgrade to CR XI r2 (or lower) to implement the above solution.

How do I create a crystal report layout with a table and borders

My crystal report is a signin sheet. The sign in sheet has an ID column, Name column, Institution column, Place to signin column, and Weekday columns with checkboxes in each column for the visitor to checkoff.
How do I display the data that is being used int he crystal report in a table layout with borders around each cell? And is it possible to center vertical alignment of the data within eacvh cell like Excel?

Blahahaha! Great answer Deb!
Seriously though... There is no vertical alignment in CR. There have been several past threads related to this issue and all of them have various workarounds. None of them are very elegant.
The best workaround I've found (especially if you are grid or borders) is to turn off the boarders for the field itself and drawl a rectangle around the field(s). Now you can place the field in the lower portion of the rectangle and adjust the rectangles height to place the field text in the center of the rectangle.
This will give you more control over the height of your elements than using a carriage return before the 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.

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?
