Problems Exporting Report to Word

Hi,
We are using the crystals reports bundled with VS2005 targetting .Net Framework 2.0, for a web based application. On some development PCs(Windows XP Sp3) and some ISS servers(IIS 6.0 and Windows Server 2003 R2(SP2) where the application is hosted we have a problem exporting the report is exported to word (programmatically using eportDocument.ExportToHttpResponse). Export to PDF and Excel on the PCs/server worls fine. This problem happens to all the reports in the system.
The problem is that the window opens and closes and we don't get to see the word document. But the same report when exported to word from the export option in the Crystal Report viewer, it works fine. Also on two of our Windows 2003 server with SP2 the export to word is working fine.
Please can you help us resolve this issue.

  • Exporting report to Word, Word editable or RTF adds page breaks

    Our workforce management software (Aspect Workforce Management) uses Crystal 2008 for customer reports.  Previewing, printing, and exporting to HTML, PDF, and Excel all work fine but exporting the report to Word, Word Editable, and RTF results in a document that contains extra page breaks in the middle of pages or other strange paging behavior.
    With the regular Word export and the RTF export we see some pages containing the first half of the page at the top of a page followed by a break then the second half of the page on the next page at the bottom of the page.  E.G., lots of empty whitespace at the bottom of a page followed by lots of empty whitespace at the top of the next page which ends with content that should have been at the bottom of the previous page.
    The Word Editable export doesn't seem to insert weird page breaks but every page says 1 of N as the page number in the footer.  Other export formats number the pages correctly.
    Our customers are demanding a fix for this problem, which seems to be a Crystal defect.  I don't understand why PDF and HTML and Excel all page correctly but not Word, Word Editable, or RTF.  How hard is it to generate the export without causing extra page breaks or incorrectly numbered pages?
    Is this problem acknowledged by SAP to be defect in the word, word editable, and rtf export options?  Is SAP intending to fix this problem?

    And good morning to you too John:
    So, if you wrote the code your self and it is in .NET, why was the issue posted to the SAP Crystal Reports Design forum rather than the .NET - SAP Crystal reports forum? Note that each forum as a nice description in the header as to what sort of questions should be posted in that forum. In light of you posting the issue to the SAP Crystal Reports Design forum, I feel it was a pretty fair to ask the questions I did ask... (?).
    I feel that the way this communication is going, it may be a good idea if you do a bit of searching on these forums. Also, use the search box at the top right corner of this page (it will give you results for KBases, blogs, wikis, articles and more...)
    If you do not get what you need from that, it will be best for you to create a phone case here:
    http://store.businessobjects.com/store/bobjamer/en_US/pd/productID.98078100?resid=S6I@hgoHAkEAAGsiyVkAAAAR&rests=1282226845369
    Note that if what you report is deemed to be a bug in the CR designer or the CR SDK, your phone case will be refunded.

  • Problems exporting PDF to Word

    I went to https://exportpdf.acrobat.com/app.html and followed the steps to convert however after many attempts I kept receiving the message .... failed to export, there was an unexpected problem. After reading the forums I also tried unchecking the recognise scanned text box to see if that would work.
    After purchasing your subscription and it being unsuccessful I tried converting the file with another program available on the web, just to check there wasn't something wrong with the file ..... it worked.  However because I won't pay the subscription I only got the first 6 pages ;(
    The file in question is 58MB would this be the problem?

    David, thank you for taking the time to look into this for me.
    The document is a resource pack for a teacher so it has lots of labels, ready made signs for the classroom eg. days of the week.  There are not a lot of pictures in the document.

  • Problems in exporting crystal report to word format

    Hi All,
    I am getting trouble in exporting crystal report to word formats.
    Here are my questions:
    1) The exported word file will have a text "R..950" added on top right hand corner, How to get rid of it?
    2) For those "Can Grow" fields, it can show multiple line data correctly in the viewer. However, the text box in exported word file will be too small to show all the content and lower half of the text is cut.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Cherry

    Hi Asha,
    Thanks for reply.
    The version of crystal report designer and viewer which I am using is version 11 Release 2.
    Besides, I guess it might relate to the format of report so I would like to tell you more.
    Font Face: Arial Unicode MS (in order to show chinese characters)
    Font Size: 9 pt
    For the text "R..950" issue, I just found that some people in the internet having the same issue and they suggested that may relate to the locate. In my case, the locate is Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R.).
    If it is necessary, I may send you my report with sample for test.

    Hi,
    We are using the CR bundled with VS 2005 which is CR version 10.2.3600.0. On the development machine where the export is not working, we have CR 8.5, the CR bundled with VS2005 and CR 2008(CR 12.0) with SP1 installed. We use the Visual Studio Integration manager to switch the versions from CR for VS 2005 and CR 12.0 and vice versa.
    On the Windows 2003 R2 server, we have used the CR redistributable package to install Crystal report runtimes. No other version of CR or any service packs is installed on this machine.
    We initially had a problem with the CR on this server, where the reports would not work evertime the server was restarted and we had to re-install the distributable each time. To solve this, we had to manually register this dll C:\Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\2.7\Bin\sacommlayer.dll. (I believe this is a known issue with Windows Server 2003 R2 and .Net 2.0).
    Please let me know if you need more information.

  • Problem while exporting report

    Hi
    I have created report with 7 subreport with crosstab in some subreports.When i run report its giving me more than  2000 records within minute  But when i am going to export report into XLS or PDF or MS Word ,
    its giving me timeout in crystal report but if we pass some optional parameters then its getting exported properly(with 50 to 60 records).
    Please suggest on above.Thanks In Advance
    Regards
    Vishal

    Vishal if you ask my honest opinion I hate the idea of using sub reports. I use maximum of 2 sub reports, and not more. Infact when it comes to use sub reports, I try to arrange things in database instead of arranging them onto the reporting side.
    For example, I will check all the sub report codes and see if I can use those tables in my main report. The ones which can be used I will use them and ones which can't be used I will create temp commands (tables) under the Crystal Database.
    If that solution doesn't work then I would ask my db admin to arrange something so that I can arrange the report.
    Think this way, the main people who uses these reports are managers,directors. Do you think they have enough time to sit and wait for the report to come? Max they can wait is 5mins from my experience, over that and they start doubting your abilities.
    Unless or otherwise, these reports needs to run overnight, try avoiding subreports and use alternative methods.

  • Problem in Exporting report content to spreadsheet.

    Hi,
    When exporting report output to spreadsheet, the currency and quantity values are not getting exported properly.
    For example : in report MB51 after getting the output, from menu-> list->export->spreadsheet->all available formats->Microsoft excel (in existing XXL Format)->table.
    This is happening in Office 2007 only. And when i try to export the data to local file->spreadsheet, this problem is not there.
    Do i need to do any settings in MS office excel or SAP GUI.
    Plz suggest.
    Thanks

    Hi Vinod,
    I have gone thru the notes mentioned by you, but did not work for me.
    : symbol is being displayed, for ex: 1090:96
    As i have already mentioned that i am not getting the error when i export the data to local file->spreadsheet.
    Thanks

    Hi Alisa,
    unfortunately changing option re. compatibility view does not help either. Checked or unchecked I still have the same. Re. Power view browser support I would understand this for excel and word, but why pdf does not work? Version of sql server is "Microsoft
    SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP2) - 10.50.4000.0 (X64)   Jun 28 2012 08:36:30   Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation  Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1) ". I saw some people recommend RsClientPrint
    to be R2/SP2 version 10.50.4000. So I have this.
    At the end I can force users to use Mozzila Firefox or Google Chrome, but I would like to know or find the reason that this Microsoft product does not work welll with Microsoft IE.
    I am attaching screen shot of popup I have got before my IE starts "hanging"

    Olá bahl2
    Pode, por favor explicar sua dúvida em português mesmo?  Porque, em inglês, está difícil entender o que você precisa :/.
    Você publicou sua pergunta no fórum de scripts de Adobe Illustrator, ao invés do fórum geral. Você está exportando o documento por meio de um script, é isso?
    Quando você se refere a "cortinhos", você se refere a aquelas finas divisões em seu plano de fundo vermelho?

  • Problem Exporting Webi report to Excel in Edit mode

    I have posted this question on BOB forum [http://forumtopics.org/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=189429&sid=8539bfcc4dbbf782ba1a9950085373ed] and found no response so I am cross posting here.
    I have two environments: Enterprise XI 3.1 SP2 and Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 FP3.6. On both instances when I open reports in web intelligence and try to export it to excel (using Save to my computer as Excel) I will get a "file download" dialog box asking me if I want to open, save or cancel. However when I am in Edit mode I get the same options to save/open only in the first instance(SP2), what I get in sp3 is a somewhat different "save docuemnt" dialog box (with a save as type all files not explicitly excel), doesnt allow users to open at all. I need your help to get the file download option to open/save when i export reports to excel in the second instance too. BTW it works fine for PDF export.
    Thanks.

    Please check if matches this behavior and if the suggested solution works
    [1467147 - Neither File Download dialog box is shown, nor error ERR_WIS_30271 occurs when saving the Web Intelligence document as Excel file in Java Report Panel after Binary Stream Maximum Size has been reached |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1467147]
    Worth to have a look also to this KBA for higher SP levels
    [1665049 - Save behavior is inconsistent in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI3.1 SP4 |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1665049]
    PS: Just noticed also that there is a bug ADAPT01568649 for which the option for saving as Excel doesn't appear.
    This is fixed in FP3.7
    Thanks!
