Missing report headers when exporting to XLS Data Only

Hello all,
I searched for this topic and was unable to find a similar one!
I have a report that's very long.. (Page Setup:User Defined)
When I export to Excel Data Only, with option of: Custom: Data is exported according to selected options, the output shows some headers only and skips many.
I tried going into Design view and putting grids around each feild so that they don't overlap.
How can I fix this issue?
Thanks,

Go to FILE->Export->Report Export Options then select Excel Data Only option from the Format drop down window then press ok.
Check page headers and footer check box and press ok.
This should set the options to export report header and footers.
Hope this helps!

I am using Crystal XI and need to output several columns worth of data. Do to so I attempted to have the data presented in 2 rows within the same section.
Example:Page Header b contains: 7 columns 5 columns

When exporting to excel data only I only see the bottom 5 column header info and all the detail data in the correct order. How do I get all the Headers to display on the export file?

Column headings are mismatched when export to excel (Data Only)

Hi All,
We have an old Crystal Web Portal designed using CE10 in VS 2003.   The crystal viewer shipped with VS 2003 exports to excel (Data only) in correct order where all the columns headers are matched with the corresponding data.
We have re-written the entire new web portal in VS 2008 with using CE10 on windows 2003 server. Everything works we can view the report, page navigation, export to PDF, export to MS Excel 97-2000.   However when export to MS Excel 97-2000 (Data only) option, the column headings are mismatched with the corresponding data.   I don't understand what changed between VS 2003 Crystal Viewer and VS 2008 Crystal Viewer.   I think this has to be the crystal viewer problem because I'm exporting from the viewer tool bar.
Here is the API referencing in the code:
In Visual Studio I'm referencing all CE10 10.0.3300 version api's. Howerver since Crystal Viewer with VS 2008 is newer and has 10.5.3700 version I'm using CrystalDecision.Shared and CrystalDecision.Web are version 10.5.3700.   These seems to have no problem. The entire web portal works fine.
More about Web Portal:
-User is validated upon login with CE10
-use selects the report from the list
-Report ID is then passed to reportdocument
-reportdocument API loads the report and
-Viwer.reportsource= reportdocument.reportsource
We cannot update Crystal Enterprise 10 right now.   I'm in the middle of deploying new web portal with VS 2008.   I have to resolve the Export excel (Data only) option and have the column headers matched with the data in excel.   I have tried everthing.
Can some help here.
thanks

Hi,
The report saves the printer information and if it can connect to the exact same printer then the print options will get passed to the printer.
If the report is being sent to a different printer, Crystal doesn't know if this new printer will support the same settings, ie. duplex or color. In our case we were setting the report to print duplex printing and landscape. When our application went to print it actually crashed because some of the printers didn't support duplex.
What we did is disable the print button on the viewer and added the PrintDialog control to our form. Use the ReportDocument.PrintOptions method to set the properties for the PrintDialog control.
var printDialog1 = new PrintDialog();
printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
printDialog1.AllowSomePages = true;
if (myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings != null)
     printDialog1.PrinterSettings = myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings; //Use any saved printer settigns
     printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Copies = Convert.ToInt16(copies);
     dr = printDialog1.ShowDialog();
     if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
     myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings = printDialog1.PrinterSettings;     //Save the latest printer settings
     nCopy = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Copies;               //Get the number of Copies
     sPage = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;               //Get the number of Start Page
     ePage = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;                    //Get the number of End Page
     myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterName = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;     //Get the printer name
     myReport.PrintOptions.CustomPaperSource = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSource;
     if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Vertical)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Vertical;
     else if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Horizontal)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Horizontal;
     else if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Simplex)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Simplex;
Hope this helps,

Cross Tab Grand Total Out Of Line When Exporting to Excel Data Only

Does anyone have a solution to this issue:
Setting up a cross tab report with a grand-total field at the end of it and exporting to Excel Data Only format, moves the grand total values one column to the right of where the should be.
eg:
Company    Month    Revenue    Total
Acme       200710   1000.00    1000.00
Indigo     200710   2000.00    2000.00
Total                          3000.00   3000.00
Thanx for any input - looks better in fixed font.
the 2nd 3000.00 appears to the right of the Total column and not under it

Column Headers are Jumbled when exporting to 'Excel Data only'

Hi,
When I am exporting a report to 'Excel Data only' the column headers are jumbled in the output,where as the data field are exported in the same order as it is in the report .
They are being exported as
Header:F3   F2    F1
Detail   :F1   F2    F3
Instead of
Header:F1   F2    F3
Detail   :F1   F2    F3
Is there a way I can over come this issue.

Can you explain how exactly the report was designed? Is it happening for every report or only for this report?

Missing report header when exporting to Excel

When exporting to Excel from an ASP.NET application (Visual Studio 2003), some reports do not include the report header section. The reports headers are there when exporting to PDF.
I cannot see any obvious difference between the reports that export the report header and those that do not. I believe that I have the latest service pack.

I am using Microsoft Development Environment 2003 Version 7.1.6030. The About Box only says Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET. It does not show a version number.
I have not been able to find any information regarding ExportHeaderAndFooter or even ExportHeader. They do not appear to be options in this version of Crystal.
I have tried reducing the report header to a simple text object that works OK on another report but it will still not export on this one. The report footer does export OK though.

Post Author: pmstar
CA Forum: Exporting
I am using Crystal 9 verision.
I have .rpt file that used 4 sub reports .In the main report I placed all the sub reports in the(detail section) row and using the data for some caluculation in the main report to generate report fields.I placed the main report fields in next row( in detail section).However when i export the report .Its generating 5 empty rows and 3 rows with 0. I have pretty much followed the solution from the article "c2017620" published in BO.
Since i used the sub reports only to get some value for main report calculations .Is there any workaround for the following issue
1.I do not want to print the subreport data when exported to excel data only.
2.how can i get rid of the blank rows
We have a lot of reports which has the same issue and we need to get the reports to work in Excel Data only .The reports works perfect when used in PDF format but its mandatory that we need to give the reports to the client using Data only.
If possible, when responding with your recommendations, please include detailed steps. It would be very helpful.Thanks in advance,

Problem in Exporting Crystal Report to MS-Excel 97-2000(data only)

I have developed a crystal report using VS 2008 which has 12 columns, my question is when i export the report to MS Excel 97-2000 (data only) the report gets exported completely but some columns header names are missing i mean out of 12 column header names only 6 are getting displayed, kindly help me out.
Thanks in advance
Ramakrishna Reddy

Hi Ramakrishna,
When you export any report in data only format, all the formatting which has been applied to report fields will be lost.
If you want the formatting as well then in export option check the box "Maintian object formatting".
Or else you can export to MS EXCEL 97-2000 which will maintain all the formatting.
Thank you

Handling page breaks in Crystal Reports XI when exporting to Excel

We generate reports in Crystal Reports and programmatically export them to Excel for our end users, so the user receives both an .rpt and .xls version. We are upgrading from Crystal 8.5 to Crystal XI and have found with some of our reports that the page breaks in Excel are different in Crystal XI than in 8.5. The first page will fill to the end and then the next page will contain a few lines of data, the next will be full and the next will contains a few lines. Viewing the Excel page breaks, there are soft breaks before the short pages and hard breaks before the long pages. It's as if there is too much data defined for each page so it spills onto the next page before creating another hard page break. In Crystal 8.5, the paging was continuous as expected. Is there any way to fix this in Crystal XI?

Please note, this forum is dedicated to topics related to legacy SDKs, including the Report Designer Component (RDC), OCX, VCL, and Crystal Reports Print Engine (CRPE).
As the issue you are encountering is in the CR designer, please post your query to the Crystal Reports Design forum at:
SAP Crystal Reports
I'd also suggest adding more detail to your query; version of Crystal Reports used, is this an upgrade issue, new report issue, etc., etc.
Thank you for your understanding,

Error when exporting to XLS

Hello all, we are having issue in several of our costumers using our application which internally is using Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime.
The error we are getting (randomly) is Error in File Report {xxxxx.rpt}: Invalid export DLL or export Format.
We have tried the following:
1) Check the mime types:
These mime types must be declared in the Reports' website.
.xls application/octet-stream
.doc application/octet-stream
.rti application/octet-stream
2) Issues generating XLS
Check if "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports\Path" exists, if not you must create a String value and fill it with "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86" (without the quotes, check if this path is correct according to your installation).
Additionally, you can try adding this path to the system variable path too.
3) Check if the NETWORK SERVICE user has full privileges over the folder C:\Program Files\Business Objects\ and its childs.
4) CRUFL Library issue:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{2A2B4F96-C81B-40CD-944F-CC3ECA2FE960}\InprocServer32
If you find more than one library declared, all of them must point to the same and valid directory (The newer one)
5) The folder ASPNET_CLIENT must reside inside the reports' site and inside the default web site too, this folders must contains a subfolder with the framework version called 2.xxxxxx and inside it the folder crystalviewer12 (and subfolders).
The NETWORK SERVICE user must have full privileges over the folder ASPNET_CLIENT and its childs.
6) We looked for access denied messages with process Explorer (nothing was found)
7) Install Crystal Reports v12 SP1 Runtime into the server which is running the IIS + Reports. File cr2008_fp14_ri.zip
Restart the server after installing this Runtime.
The last time after reinstalling the Crystal reports Runtime and after restar the server, it start to work, but the client called som time later because he is having the same issue again.
We are having this issue with several customers, and it is a big issue because our system is a Reporting system and the XLS export is one of the most important features they need.
Many Tanks!

Are you using Oracle?
Have you checked out the sticky thread at the top of this forum:
[Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008|"Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008;?
If you are using Oracle, the work-around at this time is as follows:
The error can be worked around by setting the System Variable to the path of the CR bin directory;
c:\program files\business Objects\businessobjects enterprise 12.0\win32_x86

Missing Source files when exporting to Soundtrack and LiveType

An extremely frustrating "glitch" has occurred. When exporting to LiveType or Soundtrack, I receive and error message telling me that one or more of my source files are missing. I had been editing with these files in FCP 5 for the past few days with no problems. Initially I had no problem exporting to LiveType. Yet, today when I exported to Soundtrack Pro and subsequently LiveType, my source files just disappear. I have found some references to this issue in the discussions, but found no solution. If someone has found a solution since the last posting, please inform of it.

Export the clip using current settings.
Then open that in LT, and work with it independently.
Then export is and import it into FCP and use it to replace the original clip in the sequence.

Missing page header when exporting a Numbers sheet to PDF??

I am running OS X 10.8.5 and Numbers 09 Version 2.3, all on a 2009 MBP.
I created a simple table and have a page header (title, etc).
When I print this file directly from Numbers to the printer, everything is okay.
But when I export the file to PDF and print the PDF, the header is gone.
Any thoughts?

I have done some addtional problem solving. I now have the issue isolated to the export function. It does not export the page header when exporting to PDF. It does do it when exporting to file type - post script.
Interesting.
Anybody got something to add here?

Missing Header Row When Exporting Data to Excel and Program Runs Slow

Hello all,
I am new to programming. I’ve dabbled with VB.NET at times over the years but this is the first time I’m trying C#. Although, it’s been quite a while since I’ve done any type of programming other than writing SQL queries at work. For the sake of trying to
learn I have given myself a project that is something I can actually use at work. Right now I'm doing it at home. I’m querying a database on SQL Server 2008 R2; putting the data from the DB into a DataViewGrid and then exporting the data into Excel and saving
the file on my C:\ drive. On the form I have two buttons; one that queries the DB and the other to do the export. The code below does work but I have two issues that I need assistance with:
All of the SQL table data goes into Excel properly with the exception of it is missing the header row.
After I click the Export button it takes a long time to create the Excel file. It takes between 2.5 and 3 minutes. It is not a big file (only 447 rows and 125 KB in size) so I don’t know why it takes so long. Does it have anything to do with the number
of times Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel is being referenced? I read somewhere online that is an old COM method although I’m not familiar with what a COM method is
and why it would make things run so slow.
When I click the button to run the SQL query and load the DataGridView it runs immediately.
I plan on taking this project further such as adding date parameters including validation on the dates and then maybe adding buttons that can be used to insert, update and delete records. But I don’t want to go any further until the two issues mentioned
above are resolved. Any assistance / guidance will be greatly appreciated. Here’s the code:
