SAP Crystal Dashboard Design 2008 - where to re-download software?

Hi,
My work laptop was just uprgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 and I cannot find the software anywhere to re-install it. I found the order confirmation email and managed to login to re-download it, but when I clicked "begin download" I got a message saying that it was too old to download!
Can anyone advise?
Many thanks!
David

SAP Crystal Dashboard Design 2008, personal edition, full product download

Hi, can anyone tell me what I need to do after downlaoding 2008 personal edition?
I've tried to run the install file but I keep getting a window that tells me "Microsoft XP and later applications: Excel, Word, Outlook or PowerPoint must be pre-installed".
But my laptop is already installed with MS XP and MS Office 2010.
Many thanks
Brian.

Hi Brian,
Office 2010 is not supported in Xcelsius 2008. Check this blogpost for a workaround.

Can Xcelsius 2008 Engage coexist on the same machine as SAP Crystal Dashboard Design?

I still have the requirement to maintain dashboards created with Xcelsius 2008 SP5. Will the install of SAP Crystal Dashboard Design: Departmental overwrite or disable the ability to run Xcelsius 2008 on the same machine?

Thank you for the reply. I am not sure I phrased the question very well, as I said in the post I am aware Personal Edition does not require viewing licenses. What I was asking was whether the 'internal business use only' clause in the EULA prevented dashboards built with Personal Edition from being placed on external company sites?
If anyone could provide an answer to this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Differene between SAP Crystal Dashboard Design and Presentation Design

Dear All,
SAP Crystal Dashboard Design
SAP Crystal Presentation Design
Somehow I am failing in installation of the both versions to find the difference whereas the price variation between these two are so high.
Can anyone brief me the exact difference between above two.
Again inside the TAB of any one of the above we see there are 2 versions named Departmental and Personal Edition in which Personal Edition costs too high. Unable to know why such difference in pricing that too for personal edition.

Hi Baskar,
To get the difference between the crystal presentation design & dashboard design, please check the below link.

Related to license it may differ based on the departmental, presentation or personal. Where some features will be disabled you can get complete features in departmental edition. For more info on comparison check the attached screenshot.
Hope this Helps!!!

SAP Crystal Dashboard Design Personal Edition - Lifeoffice available

We like to build a dashboard on Crystal Report Server
We wanted use the CRS + SAP Crystal Dashboard Design Personal Edition + CR or CRS + the package (CR + CX)
Does that include the lifeoffice Connecion?
Thanks for help
Beat Honegger

No direct way. But I had a similar requirement. Our team updates a central spreadsheet and our managers wanted to have a dashboard to reflect information entered on it. I ended up writing a VBA Macro using an XSD schema to use Excel XML Maps to export the spreadsheet data to .XML at the click of a button.
Then, in an Xcelsius model, I imported that same Excel XML Mapping .XSD schema into my model, and pointed it to the location of the exported XML file to then have "live" data whenever the source Excel file was saved. It seems an around the world way to get to Excel data (albeit in a separate file), seeing as the tool was originally written with Excel being the central focus.
There's also a more lengthly route to do it, but treating the Excel file as an ODBC source for a Crystal Report which Live Office will recognize which you can then use as a connection to Xcelsius, but that seemed even more painful for our purposes but in theory works.

Thanks Eric,
The statement from the Roadmap and the Faq are politically correct,SAP says they will stop the future develoment or would be limited ,its like reading between the lines in particular this quote
"Projects requiring an Excel OLAP Integration should be carried out with BEx Analyzer 7.0. The tool is safe for 8+ years, and customers will be able to upgrade to Pioneer Excel. "
Hope it Helps

Crystal Dashboard Design 2011 Instalation Failed

Hi Guys,
We have just bought Crystal Dashboard Design 2011 last week, and we have a problem when trying to install it. I have tried everything, Iu2019ve already Run it as Administrator (right click), deactivate UAC. When trying to install the requirements are meet correctly but when trying to define the installation folder if I leave the default one an error appears saying u201CInstallation folder is not valid. Use a valid absolute folderu201D so I select another one and proceed (I have Crystal Reports for B1 installed), and when the form where the key code is asked I define the one that SAP gave us and a message of windows appears saying u201CSAP BusinessObjects stop working. The program stops working correctly because of a problem. Windows will close the program and will notify you if there is any solutionu201D this widow appears twice and after closing them another window appears saying u201CThe key code of the product is invalidu201D Of course I have verified the Key and it is correct I only copy and paste it. So the installation could not be completed.
I try to install it in another computer and works fine but this computer is from the CEO so it is not possible to use that computer.
Machine where fails (Windows Vista SP2 32 bits)
Machine where success (Windows 7 64 bits)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I am having the same problem with the Crystal Reports 2011 trial.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit and have administrator rights. I have tried running it in XP compatibility mode and also with the virus checker disabled.
It has now come up with the same error message on 5 different attempts....
Any ideas, SAP?

SAP Crystal Report Designer

Hi
Does SAP Crystal Report Designer ( which is used to design reports , where these reports can be used in WPF Crystal Report Viewer , WinForms Crystal Report Viewer has Localization support) , has localization support , can we generate custom language assemblies and bind to Report Designer?

What version of CR Designer?
Have you consulted your CR Designer Help files? I suspect searching the help file for "localization" will give you quite a bit of informatoin. Also, don't forget to use the search box in the top right corner of this web page.

Exporting from SAP Crystal Presentation Design to PowerPoint

I have been using CrystalXcelsius Standard 4.5 with Windows XP for a couple years. My company recently migrated to Windows 7. I've been told the new version of Xcelsius I need to purchse is SAP Crystal Presentation Design which is supposed to be compatible with the new operating system. I like the software as it seems to be what I need to continue creating Dashboards for my group. However, after having difficuty exporting to PowerPoint as I have done in the past for general viewing, I've stumbled upon release notes that say though this software is compatible with Windows 7 operating system, it is not compatible with the PowerPoint software within Windows 7, and I must save the exported file in PowerPoint 2003. However, when I open the PowerPoint document after exporting, the documement initially looks blank until I click Slideshow, then I get a "Securty Alert - Marcros and ActiveX" message that says "Macros and one or more ActiveX controls have been disabled" and I have to choose either "protect me from unknown content (recommended)" or "enable content". I've been choosing the recommended option. Once I do so the imported dashboard appears. My initial question is am I performing the import correctly, and if so is there a way to get around that error message? My management presents these dashboards to others both inside and outside the company and would prefer that the error does not keep popping up.
Thanks much!
Leanne

Hi,
First of all the message you are getting is not an error its an alerts.and its quite common. this is a standard check,if you want you can bi-passions(not recommended for all applications) this alert.
Open a power point open Power Point Options -> Trusted center -> Trust center settings -> Select active X settings -> Select Enable all controls => Now select macro Settings and do the same.
And you can avoid alert message.
Good Luck & keep posting.

It is 32bit but runs on 64bit (eg. Windows) also as long as the required 32bit libraries are available on the machine.
