Try using

MSDS Report ( header table suppressed )

Hi
We have define the 5 columns and 2 row table.
The table header is created in a separate table in the layout and another table for values.
Our requirement is like if there is no value in the value table the Text should not be print.
e.g. Tables looks like
Text   : Xxx   Yyy   Zzz
Value: cz       10     7%
if Yyy does not have any values then it should print only
Text :     Xxx    Zzz
Value:    cz       7%
we already used HELP.SAP.COM suggestion but that not works.
Please provide your suggestions.
Thanks

Totals in report header?

I am using Crystal XI to develop a fairly simple financial report. One of the requirements for the report is to have a copy of the totals located in the Report Header section. It does not seem to be as simple as just putting the running total field in the header. When I do that it does not evaluate properly and the result is incorrect. What can I do to work around the limitation with Crystal? Maybe I need to design a sub report that totals the information and then supress everything but the Report Footer section on the sub-report?

Please try creating a sub report in the report header and assign the values to a shared variable and call the variable in the main report and place it in the below section of the sub report. And also note that you should not suppress the sub report instead suppress the sections inside the sub report and resize the sub report to smaller size.
How do I create a shared variable in the sub-report? Can you give me an example? I'm not sure what you mean by placing the variable "in the main report" ... "below the section of the sub report". Are you suggesting that I place both the sub-report, and the variable in the Report Header of the main report? If so, why? I imagine the variable would serve the same purpose as the sub-report. In the case, I could just use one or the other.

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.

Export to MS Word: Page Header section placement

Hi,
I am somewhat new to Crystal Reports but I was hoping that someone here might be able to point me in the right direction. The problem I am having is when I export my report as "MS Word - Editable" my Page Header section ends up showing up before my Report Header section in the resulting rtf file.
More specifically, in the original report I am using the Page Header section to display the column names and the Report Header section to display the report title, etc. Thus my report format is as such:
Page 1
[Report Title]
[Column Names]
[row1]
[row2]
Page 2
[Column Names]
[row1]
[row2]
Once I export the report to an rtf file the format is changed to:
Page 1
[Column Names]
[Report Title]
[row1]
[row2]
Page 2
[Column Names]
[row1]
[row2]
Is there any way I can change the rtf export to match what the original report shows i.e. the column names displaying after the Report Title? Do I need to put the column names in a different section? Thanks very much in advance for any help.
Tom

Suppress the Page Header section on a specific Section

Hello,
I have a single page word document I want to append to the end of a report I have, so I placed it in Report Footer b. The word document fits perfectly on a single page without any header. I tried simply supressing the Page Header on the last page but because of the length of the the word document it gets cut in half, so the 2nd to last page includes a header and forces the word document onto 2 pages (one with a header and one without). I tried supressing the Page header the last and 2nd to last page, but that results in the printing of an extra page as the word document without a header only takes up one page.
Is there some way to supress a section based on what section is currently printing ie.
WhilePrintingRecords;
Section "Report Footer b"
I am open to any suggestions on how to simply add a report footer section without a page header.
Thanks

Unfortunately that also suppresses on the 1st report footer section (RFa)
I tried adding an additonal conditon
OnLastRecord AND Pagenumber >= TotalPageCount - 1
However, this results in the addition of an extra blank page, which changes the page count to 1+ what it should be. This may confuse some users.
Can I specify a specific record? How would I go about doing that?

How to add a field object to group header section in crystal report document?

Hi All, I have got two questions mentioned below, please share your inputs. 1)I want to know whether it is possible to add a field object to header section in crystal report document programmatically? I am using crystal runtime for visual studio. I know that using RAS we can do it, but I want to do it using managed library of crystal runtime. Please suggest. 2) I am doing a POC where I am using RAS (unmanaged library) to manipulated crystal report document. Please see code below: var dbTable = _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables[0]; var dbField = dbTable.DataFields.FindField(item.ColumnName, CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.CrFieldDisplayNameTypeEnum.crFieldDisplayNameName, CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.CeLocale.ceLocaleEnglishUS); CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.FieldObject fieldObject = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.FieldObject(); fieldObject.DataSourceName = dbField.Name; fieldObject.FieldValueType = dbField.Type; var groupHeaderArea = _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportDefinition.GroupHeaderArea[0].Sections[i]; _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportObjectController.Add(fieldObject, groupHeaderArea); In above code last line throwing exception : "The report field type is not valid." at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.ReportObjectControllerClass.Add(ISCRReportObject ReportObject, Section Section, Int32 nIndex) Thanks, Jai

Hi Jaikumar
As per the SCN Rules of engagement, one question per thread please.
Re. your 1st question. Adding a field to a report is considered to be a report creation APIs (RCAPI). Only the RAS SDK has RCAPIs, so you can not use plain jane crystal APIs. For how to with RAS, see the examples here: NET RAS SDK Samples - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
Also, consult the Developer Help Files:
Report Application Server .NET SDK Developer Guide
Report Application Server .NET API Guide
Re. your second question, please create a new discussion.

How to get SYSDATE in the header section dynamically when we run the report

I have one more issue may i know how can i get the sysdate in the header section when i run the report.
as we have the requirement like this
In the header section
Run Date : ("sysdate").
How to get the sysdate dynamically in the RTF template, when i go across the google i found that header and footer section did not allow form fiields .
So is there any way to do it.
Thanks in Advance.
Have a Nice Day.

You cannot insert form fields in the Header section, but you can just insert the code to achieve this. For example: insert this in the header section to view the sysdate: You could format the date as you would like..
<?xdoxslt: sysdate(‘YYYY-MM-DD’)?>
Since you are new to BI publisher, search the forum, review the Report Designer's guide for BI publisher. You will find that most of your basic questions are answered there and there are examples as well.
Thanks!

Image in report header appears in front of underlaying section line objects

Hello
I am trying to simulate a company letter header with company logo in page header. I have added line objects in the underlaying sections so the user can see when the detail data/section ends.
I have inserted an image into a report header
I have set the page header to 'Underlay Following Sections'
when I preview the report, line objects in underlying sections appear behind the page header image
when I preview the report, text objects in underlying sections appear in front of the page header image
Has anybody any ideas or better ways of achieving same results please?
Ta very much.
Keith

text objects are not behaving the same way, as a workaround I have set the top/bottom/left/right border property to single and used these instead of boxes or lines.

Hi Keith,
Thanks for your patience while this was being investigated. So the way Crystal Report's layout was designed was that items are put in a stack of multiple objects with the ability to move forward and back as needed. For some technical reason lines and boxes were left out of this which means they will always be in the back. Unfortunately we don't know the technical reasons that this was done as it goes back to some of our earliest versions, we are investigating this though.
The difficulty know is trying to find the reason for this, and determining if this can be changes with out breaking backwards compatibility. In the mean time the developer has suggested a work around and are wondering if this would work for you?
1. Insert a text object and enter nothing.
2. Change the size (the height matches the line width) and background (background color matches the line color).
3. Right click on the text object and select Move | To Front. And then the "line" will be on top of the picture.
Kind Regards,
Trevor

Crystal Report Group section in new page

Hi all,
I have a program written in VB.Net 2005 which display a report. In this report, I have a group by Item type ascending.
When I run the program and load the report, it display the data correctly.
When I move my mouse cursor on Group Section Hearder on the report, it will change to Magnify icon.
When I double click on that Group title which is "Item Type" in my report, it will load a new page beside "Main Report" in Crystal tool bar.
Problem is it didn't contain Report Header/Footer or Page Header/Footer.
I like this feature but it only display the group section is not enough for me.
Why I like it is because my report will have different Item Type. Each type can list up to more than 1 page.
I want to print the report by Item Type. That means Item A may be total 2 pages, Item B may be total 6 pages.
All I need to do is load the page like I mention above, it will only contain that Item Type and click on Print to print out particular Item type.
Another issue is If i supress this Group Section in crystal report during design, when I run the program I can't double click to open up new page beside Main report.
Any idea and solution for my case????
Thanks.

Your report will need re-designing. What you are seeing is an expected behavior. Consider redesigning your report - possibly using subreports.
If i supress this Group Section in crystal report during design, when I run the program I can't double click
- again, an expected behavior. You suppressed the GroupSection. E.g.; you made it invisible / non functional / not needed by suppressing it...

How to separate report layout sections in one report

All,
I'm trying to determine how to separate report layout sections in one report using Report Builder 10g. My requirement is to provide a user the ability to display a report in PDF, excel, RTF formats. How can I assign LayoutA to 'PDF' and 'RTF', LayoutB to 'Spreadsheet'?
I've attempted to utilize the Header and Main sections in the paper layout, which contain unique layouts of the same report, but during generation, both sections are being displayed.
Thanks
Edited by: Jdavis on Apr 10, 2009 10:56 PM

Hi there,
How are you running the report? If you are selecting different types of output before calling the report then you could pass a parameter that is checked at runtime in the report and suppresses the layouts you do not want using format triggers.
Mark

Make Header Section optional

We currently print a statement in the Header Section of most of our reports. We would like to set it so that the users can select a parameter which will either suppress or display the page. Although I can put a format trigger on the frame in the Header Section and this successfully either displays or prints the statement, I'd like to display or print the whole page. Even if the statement is suppressed, the users still get a blank page.
There's no pl/sql or format trigger on the Header Section so I don't know how to apply the parameter to either print or suppress the page.
Any suggestions?
We're using the following system:
Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2
ORACLE Server Release 10.1.0.4.2
Oracle Procedure Builder 10.1.2.0.2
Oracle ORACLE PL/SQL V10.1.0.4.2 - Production
Oracle CORE 10.1.0.4.0 Production
Oracle Tools Integration Services 10.1.2.0.2
Oracle Tools Common Area 10.1.2.0.2
Oracle Toolkit 2 for Windows 32-bit platforms 10.1.2.0.2
Thanks so much for any help!

Hi,
You can try to set the following parameter : blankpages=no in addition to your formating trigger.
This when you call your report. You will have no blank pages. You should validate that you do not need blank pages otherwise.
Hope this helps

XI Page Header conditional suppression not exporting to editable RTF

I have a report that I don't want the page header to print on the first page (using the report header instead). It works great exporting to everything except editable RTF.
If i have a suppression condition on the page header, it doesn't print on any of the pages on the rtf. If I have no suppression, it prints on each page (including the first). Is this 'by design'? Is there a work around? Is it slated for a future enhancement? Bug Fix? I can't find any information on this situation. I'm assuming it's similar to the 'Page # of #' problem.
The customer insists on an editable RTF... as they want to edit it before sending it out to their customers!
If anyone has any ideas, knowledge, workarounds... I'd love to hear about it! Thanks!
Belinda

Here is a workaround that I just tried and it works:
1. Create a "FakeGroup" formula:
WhileReadingRecords;
2. Insert Croup by "FakeGroup" formula
3. Move it to the top grouping level
4. Go to Options in Group Expert and click Repeat Group Header On Each Page
5. Go to Section Expert and conditionally suppress Group Header 1 (onfirstrecord)
6. Move all content of your Page Header to Group Header1
7. Suppress Page Header

Report Heading

Hi
I placed my report calculation in report footer section.
Report is working fine, but if there are more records then in second page it is showing report page header section and footer sections.
but if there are no records then i don't want to show to show page header.
Thank you

Swetha,
If I understood you correctly, in my opinion, the most common solution to your problem is to go to the section expert that is repeating on the second page and enter this formula in the suppress field:
Not OnLastRecord
The "Not OnLastRecord" prevents a blank page from appearing at the end of the report.
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Zack H.
