  • 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 use the DLLs which created from c++ in Java?

    And How to use the DLLs which created from JNI in C++?

    Huh?
    Are you asking how to do JNI - you should read the tutorial.
    Are you asking how to load it - then use System.loadLibrary()
    Are you asking what to do with the output from javah - put it in a C file and write some code, compile it into a dll.

  • How to center the content in crystal report viewer?

    open crystal report viewer in winform, default at the left top
    after maxmium the winform window, content become at the center
    another odd thing is that i set window winform size 1208*1024 and crystal report view is fill
    then tried, content is not center any more
    How to center the content in crystal report viewer in code?
    Edited by: Mathew_666 on Oct 6, 2011 5:20 AM

    Since there is no control for center you'll need to do the math on your own. This is just a rough draft, but you'll get the idea.
    One of the things you'll need to figure out is your buffer to help you give a centered feel. We'll say that value is 50 in this case.
    Height
    int buffer = 50;
    int formHeight = 1000; // we'll assume a height of 1000 in this case
    int crystalTop = buffer;
    int crystalViewerHeight = formHeight - (buffer * 2); // buffer is at the top and bottom
    Width
    int formWidth = 1000; // we'll assume a width of 1000 in this case
    int crystalLeft = buffer;
    int crystalViewerWidth = formWidth - (buffer * 2); // buffer is at the top and bottom

  • How to use the dll  created by c++ but not write a jni wrapper around

    how to use the dll created by c++ but not write a jni wrapper around through a java program. now I can't access that dll like this directly from java.

    Your question is unclear. (You haven't said what dll you are talking about.)
    But:
    If you are talking about an existing dll, then the only alternative to writing a wrapper is to use one of the wrapper generators floating around. Do a search on JACE.
    If you are talking about a dll you are writing, then run jah and get the interface to match java right away; then you won't have to write a wrapper.

  • How to optimize the performance of crystal report?

    Hi,
    -I have to design a crystal report with best possible optimization. Optimization is main concern since report will run against 1-2 million data set. Though I am using parameter to fetch only the required data, required data can go till 1 million records.
    -Based on the input passed by the user I have to group the data in report. And for each selected parameter the Detail section I am printing is different. For example:-If user selects store then detail section is different and if user select Host then detail section will be different.
    -Report can be grouped by Time Field also. So to full fill this requirement I would have to create a sub report since other parameters are of string type and can be used in one formula to get parameter based grouping in report. However If I try to return Time filed from the same formula I get the errors the "Return type should be of String typeu201D. This forces me to create sub report for Time based grouping. If user selects Time Field to be grouped on, all the information in the main report gets suppressed and only the sub report gets printed.
    If user select store, Host and User in parameter to be grouped on, sub report gets suppressed.
    Now with the above mentioned points I tried to optimize the report in following way.
    -Printing 1 million records in the report does not make sense; hence we wanted to show the summary of all the records in chart section but wanted to print just 5000 records in detailed section. Suppressing detailed section after 5000 records does not help much since suppressing just saves the time in printing and does not limit the number of records to be fetched from the DB.I have a subreport also so it fetches the data 2 times from the DB hence makes the performance of the report worse.
    To solve this problem I used command object and put the charts in the subreport and detail in main report.
    In main report's Command Object I limited the number to records to be fetched from the DB to 5000 using rownum<5000 but in subreport's Command Object I did not set any limit in the query but I am doing all my aggregation in SQL which means do summary operation in DB and get only summarized data from DB.
    -To solve section problem I am using Template object (new feature added in CR 2008).In which I am returning the field based on the "Group By" parameter selected by user.
    -For time Field I have created two sub reports, one for chart and other one for details in the same way described in point one(Printing 1 million recordsu2026u2026).
    After implementing these points my crystal reports performance improved drastically. The report that was taking 24 minute to come back now taking only 2 minutes.
    However I want my report to come back with one minute. It returns if I remove the sub reports for Time Based Grouping but I can not do so.
    My questions here are,
    -Can I stop Subreport from fetching the data from DB if itu2019s suppressed?
    -I believe using Conditional Template Object is a better option rather than having multiple detailed sections to print the data for a selected Group. However any suggestion here to improve the performance will be appreciable.
    -since crystal report does not provide any option to limit the number of records to be fetched from DB, I am forced to use command object with rownum in where condition.
        Please let me know about other option(s) to get this done...If there is any.
    I am using Crystal report 2008.And we have developed our application the use JRC to export crystal report in PDF.

  • How to use oracle functions in Crystal Reports XI using Oracle Server

    Hi all,
    Is it possible  to use oracle functions in Crystal Reports XI using Oracle Server as Data Source.
    If i try to use a procedure,i am getting error with message "Invalid Arguement Provided".
    Functions are not visible objects like tables,views and stored procedures.
    The  jdbs driver i m using is oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.

    I think it is not possible to add functions in crystal directly for any database. You need to use those functions in a stored procedure and add that storedprocedure as a datasource.

  • How to change the database in Crystal reports

    To give an overview there is one project going on where the oracle database is getting migrated from 10g to 11g.
    All the details of database like IP, port etc are changing as part of this.
    I can see the driver name configured as crdb_ado (Custom driver).
    We have an test environment for 11g against which we have to point all the reports and test it.
    Could you please let me know the below queries
    Where and how to change the IP details in the crystal reports to point to new test and prod databases.
    Overview on this crdb_ado driver
      Basically the database is getting changed and we want the reports to point and run from the new database.
    Thanks

    Hi Vissu,
    Thanks for your reply.
    We need to change the database from the reports which are already running from central management console.
    I can see a custom driver crdb_ado is being used and it connects to a database.
    Could you please let me know where the database configuration is done.
    Ideally we need to add one more database to a config file which i am not able to find.
    I guess it should be similar to tnsnames.ora file in oracle where the different databases are stored.
    From the above image I would like to know where the server details (NECTAR_Prod) would be configured.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to use the procedure column in reports

    Hi all
    How to call the procedure in reports as source.. If possible how to use columns of procedure in the layout column of report????

    Hi,
    Your query is not clear.
    1. In subject are you asking total column.
    A. Edit pivot view and go to Rows and click Total BY option here you can find option like (none,before,after) the you can select after it will display total all culms.
    2. I want use the columnC in columnD ? -- Am not understand.
    A. What my understand is you want to see the report only C and D values only.
    If it is correct we can apply filter in report level click column filed and apply not equal to A then it will show only C and D only.
    If it is wrong pleas post me correct one with example. Will try to help out this.
    I am not sure this is what your looking so far.

    Hi Amol,
    Are you able to execute your stored procedure from oracle?.
    - If "Yes" then use  the Crystal Report XIR2 Designer to create the report.
    - Import this report in the Crystal Report For Eclipse Workbench.
    - The latest version for Crystal Report For Eclipse is SP1.
    Please let me know the results.

  • How to use the SCOM 2012 Web Reporting page

    Hello all-
       We are on SCOM 2012 SP1.  I just have a general question about reporting.  I know there is a "Reporting" tab in the real, locally installed, SCOM Operations Console software.  That part I get.  I see that there
    are many pre-made reports the for me to run.  For example under Microsoft Server 2008 Operating System (Monitoring) folder there is a
    Performance History report.  When I double click on it, it takes me to the report window where I can click
    Add Object and add a server and then click
    Run.  
    This is pretty simple in concept.   BUT very few people at my company have the full Operations Console installed on their machine.  And as I'm sure you know, the SCOM Web Console does not have a Reporting Tab.  So they have to use the
    SCOM Reporting website to run such reports.  I found that you can get to this page at the url:
    http://<reporting server>/Reports                       
    This does bring up the Reporting console.  On the list I do see a Report.Windows.Server.2008.PerformanceHistory listed. So this surely seems to be the equivalent from my screenshot above.   However, it's not even close to user friendly like
    the Reporting area in the SCOM operations console software. There's multiple fields at the top. All of which are required, and almost none of which have dropbox or other ways to help you fill them in. I have no idea what to put into these boxes or the format
    to use.
    What am I missing here?  Is there a more user friendly interface anywhere?  In an ideal world, I'd really love to have a user interface where I can post the links to a few popular reports, like CPU and Disk Space for example.  Then ideally
    all the user would have to do is select their servers and the time frame and that's all.   Which really is what you do in the Operations Console software.   So isn't is it that easy in the web reporting tool?  Is there a guide or how-to
    section somewhere I'm missing?  Or just a more friendly looking way to get at this information?

    Well, my first screen shot above is squished, so you really can't see it.  But what I'm saying is that the same report in the SCOM software has the level of configuration I want on it.   It allows you to pick the date range and add objects
    to it, then you can click on Run.     However when I access the same report on the reporting console, it has all these extra fields.  None of which I know how to fill in properly.
    I would ultimately like my customers to be able to do exactly that in the web version.  Pick their server and their date range and run it.   There are not likely going to be too many reports like you're mentioning which I can completely configure
    before hand, so they just click on the link to have it run.  Most times I'd like my users to at least be able to select a server name.
    Any idea how I would simplify the web version of the report?  Or why they look so very different?

  • How to use OLAP cubes in Crystal Reports R2?

    Dear All,
    I hope someone can help me with the following issue: We are trying to link Crystal Reports XI-R2 with an OLAP cube but the login keeps on failing while the same setup/connection works with Excel.
    The OLAP cubes are created through SSAS 2008 and require a windows account for authentication. Because it works via Excel (through pivot table --> external data) the cubes are accessible and the username & password are correctly as well.
    Through the OLAP wizard in Crystal Reports the following message is displayed: "The connection could not be established. The logon attempt failed".
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Please check the trouble shooting guide in this article: /people/reuben.cox/blog/2009/12/10/troubleshooting-olap-connectivity-in-business-objects-products
    If, after performing these tasks, it still doesn't work, please reply back to this thread with more details about what you have tried and what doesn't work.
