SAP Crystal Presentation Design
I have recently purchased and downloaded SAP Crystal Presentation Design as this appears to be the first product that works with Windows 7 and Office 2010. However, every time I try hit the small icon to 'Send to Adobe Acrobat PDF' I get the following error message - 'Adobe Acrobat 9.4 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available'. Needless to say, Windows gives no solution to this problem!!
Has anyone else encountered this problem and, if so, did you find a solution? The only remote possibility I can think of is that I also have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro loaded on my laptop and use it frequently but I cannot believe this would create an Application clash.
Hi David - SAP Crystal Presentattion Design 2011 was released on the basis it worked with Windows 7 and Office 2010 - the Version is 6.0.0.0 and the Build is 14.0.0.760. I mentioned in my question that the only potential issue I could see was that I also had Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 installed but assumed that Presentation Design came with an integrated version of Adobe which ran independently to anything I had on my laptop. As a last resort I ran the 9 Pro repair tool and it appears to have fixed the problem and I can now view the Presentation Design output through Adobe! Bizarre, I know but I also recall reading somewhere that users had experienced some Office Application issues after installing versions of Adobe Acrobat. Anyway, thanks for your input but the problem appears to be resolved (at least for now!)

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!
LeanneHi,
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. -

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.

Crystal Presentation Design install failure
When installing SAP Crystal Presentation Design, an error pops up that says Windows XP or higher applications: Outlook, Excel, Word, etc. must be pre-installed". Then it says an error has occurred and the installation stops. Anyone have a clue?
I have the same problem with Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit and Office 2010. I have Microsoft Office Project 2007 on same computer. Installer says you must have Office XP or Higher and then terminates.
I am not able to use the free software or evaluate the free trial when the software will not install on a pretty typical machine.
Is theer any update or news on this? A workaround or other correction? -
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. -
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.
