4.Export Report from Test Company have you Imported as deifferent name.
5.Again Import this Report in Live company as different name
I don't know what's the logic behind it.

Barcode not displaying/printing in Crystal Report java viewer

We have written a Crystal report (in Developer XI release 2 with service pack 4 installed) which produces barcode labels. The barcodes are Code 39 barcodes and are generated by printing the string \*data_field\* in a Code 39 barcode font. The asterisk is the character used for the Code 39 start/stop sequence in the barcode font.
In Developer everything works fine and prints out and scans correctly. When we make the report available to our end users in the Crystal Reports java viewer all we get where the barcode should appear is white space on screen or when we print. (The rest of the report behaves correctly).
We have tried a few things and have found that if both asterisks or the starting or ending asterisk is left in a different font (i.e. not the barcode font) then the rest of the string displays and prints in the barcode font. (unfortunately without bot asterisks you don't get a scanable barcode).
Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this?
(In case it might be relevant the barcode font we are using is this one: http://www.barcodesinc.com/free-barcode-font/)
Thanks
Trevor

Hello Ludek,
                I have found that the issue is caused by the bold attributes of my field.
                You can try the following and you should encounter the same issue:
                                - Create a Report
                                - Create a formula with many characters
                                - Put you field in Times New Roman bold 8.
                The following Font Size in Times New Roman are in issue: 5 u2013 8 u2013 11- 14
                The following Font Size in Arial are in issue: 8 u2013 11 u2013 12 u2013 14
Thank you.

Crystal Report Activex Viewer Control

 Our users are prompted to download: Crystal Report Activex Viewer Control -- when trying to view reports. Since they do not have Admin rights on their PC, they are unable to install this Activex Control. Is there a setup file available someplace that can deployed to the user's pc that would intsall the activex control?Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,Anupam

http://support.businessobjects.com/communitycs/technicalpapers/cr_troubleshooting_activex_viewer.pdf
says
bq.
Manual installation
To manually install the ActiveX Viewer on the client computer:
1. Copy the ActiveXViewer.cab file from the server to the client computer, and extract its contents to a temporary folder.
2. Move the files Crviewer.dll, Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll to the System32 folder. Keep this folder visible.
3. On the Start menu, click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
4. In the Open box, type âu20ACu0153regsvr32âu20AC and then drag and drop the Crviewer.dll file icon from the System32 folder onto the Run dialog box.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the files Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll.
But I haven't tried it myself yet. I have so much crystal stuff on my PC. I'm going to set up a virtual PC that has never had crystal and see if it works.

Crystal Reports 2008 viewer, print function, Comunication error

I installed cr2008 on a web server and isntalled sp0
if I bring up a reprot in smartviewer from a client it works and I can print
once I installed sp1, sp2 and or sp3 for crystal reports 2008 the print button in crystal reports viewer gives an error when I click the print button.
If I remove and re-isntall cr2008 and just installed sp0 the print button works again
Is there a fix to make the print button work in crystal reports smart viewer once sp1 or above have been installed
thank you

Translating the error message on bablefish I get:
Mistake with the store of the data bank information. Mistake in the file Report {C6512421-348A-4621-B1ED-895D28646A0A} .rpt
Which I'm sure is not 100% accurate, but it gives a good hint. As well, because of this:
"Do I need to install an additional / diffrent runtime than 2008 Runtime"
I wonder how you installed the CR 12 runtime on that computer? For more info on CR runtimes, see [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] wiki.
If my suggestion above does not help, make sure the Win\temp directory can be accessed buy the application. Crystal Reports runtime needs to write and read files from the temp directory.

Load Multiple Images using link in Crystal Report

Hi Guys,
I am currently in need of developing a new requirement for our company's client. We have to load multiple images using just link in Crystal Report. Let's say that the images are stored in a folder (e.g., C:\Datafolder\Images\) and i have to fetch two images to show in crystal report (say, C:\Datafolder\Images\imageval1 and C:\Datafolder\Images\imageval2). These are actually dynamically created and therefore the number of images are not known and so i have to iterate through the list of image links.
Is it possible using merely crystal report and how?. Please take note that we're also using C# in developing our software applications.
Thanks and best regards.
---CHITO--

Hi Chito,
You cannot load multiple images dynamically. Using the 'graphic location' formula for the OLE Object, you can only point to a location that can load one image.
For the second image, you'll need to manually insert another OLE Object and point the formula to the next image's location.
You can try posting to the SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio space to find out whether this can be done using CR SDK.

Parenthesis in a parameter throws error in Crystal Reports Web Viewer.

The application that I am working on is passing a parameter which contains user data like section numbers....
So when we pass the value 123.1(a) , here what is happening behind the scene of CR viewer
webSource0.AddParameter "promptex-NAMEOFPARAMETER", "123.1%28a%29"
and it throws up the following error
"The syntax of the value for prompt 'NAMEOFPARAMETER' is incorrect. Please correct the syntax and try again"
I have no idea why it is throwing up this errror.... and we cannot avoid parenthesis.
It works without any error in the actual crystal report developer.
Is this some kind of bug or is there any workaround for this.
Version that I have:
Crystal Report web Viewer Control 11.5
Crystal Developer 11.0.0.1282
Thank you,
Xavier

I figured out the answer. It was the ASCII notation for double qoutes which was confusing crystal.
%22 is the ASCII for ", but it is then converted to %2522 which confuses crystal
so I used HTML notation for double quote instead of %22 and is converted to %22 , and it works fine.
Thanks for the help anyways

Create JAVA link in Crystal Report Viewer?

We are looking at using Crystal for Reporting and are trying to determine if within a Crystal Report we can place data that is created as a Java link. Lets say a dollar amount in the report...can it be created with a Java link attached that will call off and run another quick report/drilldown to return more detail information?

Hello Tim,
Yes,that is certainly possible.You can create a link which will be treated as object n report and then you need to create hyperlink for that specifying detail location of another object.
Thanks,

Report links in Crystal Reports portlet for IBM Websphere 6.0

Hi,
We have some problem when we try to use BusinessObjects XI Release 2 Java Portal Integration Kit for WebSphere (http://ftp1.businessobjects.com/outgoing/products/pik/BusinessObjectsPortlets.zip), that was downloaded from http://www.businessobjects.com/products/downloadcenter/boepik.asp.
This portlet configured for work with Crystal Reports Server XI Release 2 Service Pack 2.
The portal server that we use is IBM WebSphere Portal Server 6.0.
In Portlet interface we can see list of reports on Crystal Reports server, but links for this reports lead us from browser window direct to Crystal Reports Server without Portal links rewriting. It is problem because we have access to Crystal Reports Server only from Portal Server computer. It is not accessible from users computers due to security reasons and network restrictions. Coud you help us and provide some advices how to configure this portlet in way to show reports through Portal?
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards
B.M.

Here is a list of all the communication types available. You must enter them as a comma seperated list. I personally hard code them in the WEB-INF/portlet.xml and then redeply the BOportlet.war file. If you don't want to do that, you should be able to add them by logging in to the Webspere Portal admin interface.
Portlet Management>Portlets>Document List>Configure Portlet>Page 2 edit the Communication Types.
CrystalReport, Analysis, Webi, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Pdf, Txt, Rtf, MyInfoView, AFDashboardPage, Analytic, FullClient
I am also attaching a snippet of my portlet.xml where I added the comunication types in there.
Once these are added, when you run/view a report in the document list portlet, the report will open in the document view portlet.
Let me know if this helps.

Post Author: crystalappu
CA Forum: General
Hi All, I have developed a Business View for our crystal reports, We have like two levels of cascading prompting. In which the user can select ALL option in drop down LOV's in second level. I have added an 'all' object using command object in Business View. But when my Crystal report Developer is accesing my LOV prompt Group he is unable to see ALL in drop down LOV. But when i browse field in my command object i can see my 'ALL' object in it. Any idea upon this?

Perhaps you should post an example or explain using technical information how you added this command object?
Did you use a UNION ALL?

Cannot load report from server in Crystal Reports 2013 Viewer

Hello,
I am having trouble opening a report that is hosted on a Crystal Reports Server (2013) from the Crystal Viewer. I've created and uploaded the reports using the report designer (version 2013). The reports have been uploaded using the "Save As -> Enterprise" to save to my enterprise server. This part works fine. I then navigated to the Crystal Reports Viewer to open my report (that I just uploaded w/ the designer) from the server. Depending on the report, one of two things happens:
1.) I get a loading bar at the bottom right of the screen that says "Operation in progress . . ." followed by an error message:
Unable to Refresh Report
A problem occurred while refreshing on the server. The report may not be configured properly for refresh.
Please contact your server administrator. (me)
2.) I get a loading bar at the bottom right of the screen that says "Refreshing <file name of the report> (<server name>)" followed by... nothing. The loading bar goes away and nothing happens. It goes back to the screen that shows when the application first loads (blank canvas).
I've taken some basic troubleshooting steps to try and rule out any potential issues that came to mind, but I've not been successful.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Link a Crystal Report report with an SQL Azure database

Hi,
I want to use my database on SQL Azure in Crystal Report. So I want to link my reports with data contained not in a local db, but in a SQL Azure one.
Insiede Crystal Report I have created a new ADO connection to my SQL Azure, providing server, db, user, password, and Crystal Report have recognized the database. But when I go to the Database Expert and I try to set this ADO connection inside my report,
I recieve this error:
"Not Implemented
Source ADODB.Connection
L'operazione richiesta non è supportata dall'oggetto o dal provider (operation not supported by the object or by the provider)"
Why? How can i use my SQL Azure data in my Crystal Report reports?
Thanks

Hi Delfins,
Please create a UDL file to test the connection, ensure the connection is fine and then use the same connection string in your Crystal Report.
For UDL file, you can refer to:

Hope this helps,
