Setting report viewer source problem...

In vs2010 I go to bind the report viewer to the report source but the report source method is showing invalid. I have included: using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;
My click handler to generate the report is:
DataTable table = new DataTable();
dbOperations operations = new dbOperations();
ReportDocument pluReport = new ReportDocument();
pluData pluData = new pluData(); //use database to populate a datatable
table = operations.dispDB(); //populate the table from the database
pluData.Tables[0].Merge(table); //merge table from database with dataset
pluReport.Load(@"C:\Users\Chris\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\CRS_Inventory\CRS_Inventory\pluReport.rpt");
pluReport.SetDataSource(pluData);
crystalReportsViewer1.(pluData);
I am converting a previous project from forms to wpf and everything works perfectly fine except this one line. Thanks for the assistance.

I htink the best palce to start is with out sample apps:

"Date picker" in report - - View source shows no label for the date picker

Hi
In one of my reports, I am using multiple types (textarea/text/date picker/select list)
I wanted to use a javascript based on the label, but I do not see "<label>" for Date picker in the view source due to which my Javascript fails.
Snippet of view Source:
<td class="t3data" ><label for="f08_0001" class="hideMe508">CATEGORY</label><textarea name="f08" rows="4" cols="16" wrap="VIRTUAL" id="f08_0001">EMPLOYEE INDUCTION</textarea></td>
<td class="t3data" ><span class="lov"><input type="text" name="f11" size="15" maxlength="2000" value="29-FEB-08" style="padding-right:5px;" id="f11_0001" /><script type="text/javascript">
As you can see above, we have a "label for" for the text area but not for the date picker
Is there a reason for the same?
Thanks
Nitin

Hi,
OK - the headers attribute should also help as these will identify the correct cells. You would need to know the html tags used within each cell for each datatype.
Would using cloneNode help you? It's a method of creating a copy of an entire row in a single instruction

i am using the following event for drilldown and navigating
crystalreportviewer1.drill
crystalreportviewer1.navigate
As i am reloading the report in the above two events i want to reload the report and dataset the same way for export and print. But there is no event for export and print.

"View Source" problem in IE and Mozilla

I'm parsing a HTML data source using JAVA.
I do "View Source" of the page in both IE and Mozilla.
#1 below is from IE and #2 is from Mozilla.
1. <p><div class = "sub1"> <a name="..."></a>...</div></p>2. <p><div class =" sub1"> <a name="..."></a>...</div></p>Notice the spaces in the <div> tag. The spaces in IE and Mozilla are different. Could somebody please advise about this?
Thanks in advance for the help.

The two browsers use different programs to display the text of the source. IE usually takes the windows default and uses Notepad, whereas Firefox uses its own program. They are going to format it differently.
My approach would be to use the Notepad version and have notepad save it to disk. Only your own program can tell for sure what is really in the file, without notepad introducing display artifacts (like extra newline to do word wraps).

Dynamically set report viewer report name

<p>I have a CR4E application with several reports. I want to use the same viewer for each report in the app but need to change the report name based on the user's selection from a dropdown list on a form. How do I dynamically change the reportName in the viewer?<br />Thanks, Bill</p>

The viewer takes reportSource objects to display reports.Â The trick is to always have viewer in a seperate page from the rest of your business logic.
I created a sample for you where I have a page that has two links.Â Both links go to the same jsp page but they display different reports depending on the variables placed in the URL.Â My viewer page then reads the URL to discover which report you want display.Â
First Page:Â
<</font>body>
<<font size="2" color="#3f7f7f">a href="DynamicReportViewer.jsp?report=CrystalReport1.rpt" > Report1 </</font>a><</font>br>
<</font>a href="DynamicReportViewer.jsp?report=CrystalReport2.rpt" /a>Report2 </</font>a><</font>br>
</<font size="2" color="#3f7f7f">body>
JSP CODE to display reports
String reportName;
reportName = (String)request.getParameter("report");
ReportClientDocument clientDoc = (ReportClientDocument) session.getAttribute(reportName);
<font size="2" color="#7f0055">if</font>(clientDoc ==<font size="2" color="#7f0055">null</font>) {clientDoc =<font size="2" color="#7f0055">new</font>ReportClientDocument();
clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
session.setAttribute(reportName, clientDoc);
CrystalReportViewer crystalReportPageViewer =<font size="2" color="#7f0055">new</font>CrystalReportViewer();
IReportSource reportSource = clientDoc.getReportSource();
crystalReportPageViewer.setReportSource(reportSource);
crystalReportPageViewer.setOwnPage(<font size="2" color="#7f0055">true</font>); crystalReportPageViewer.setOwnForm(<font size="2" color="#7f0055">true</font>);

JimP: Setting View Source's srcpath -- how?

Gentlepersons,
Here's a tiny liittle Flex app:
I'd love to show you the source to this app, but I don't know how to do so. I have been pounding Google and reading books (half a dozen so far) and none of them say how to specify the path of the "View Source" menu item. They say "Just select Project ->Export Release Build, check the View Source option, and voila! You're done!" But that is not the end of the process. That's just the start.
- How, *exactly*, does one place a Flex app on a given web page? Obviously, I've learned a tidbit or two about this, or I wouldn't be able to place the above app in this web page. But maybe I'm doing it wrong, and perhaps that wrongness is causing my View Source problems.
- The app above is online at http://www.igetitmusic.com/blog/SWFs/Tweener/Tweener.swf. To get it there, I copied the entire bin-release folder to my server's SWFs folder, and renamed it after the project name ("Tweener"). Is this the right thing to do?
- The above app's View Source menu item looks for its source code in some apparently-random place. I say "apparently-random," because I cannot find documented anywhere the process by which this path's default is determined, and the process by which you set it to something other than the default.
The question, then, is this: What, *exactly* -- leaving out no "obvious" steps -- is the algorithm for publishing a Flex application to the Web, such that its View Source menu item works?
The meta-question is, where is this algorithm documented? I suspect that this as-yet unread tome will hold the key to answering many other similar questions that have been bugging me.
Overall, I am really enjoying the process of learning Flex. It's this "obvious" stuff that's tripping me up (and thereby bugging the crap outa me)...
Respectfully, and with sincere appreciation for any help, I am
Yours,

Gentlepersons,
This turns out to be a known bug in Flex 3, which has been fixed in Flex 4 (which is still in development).
In the meantime, the workaround is to expose, in the web page in which a SWF is embedded, a separate link to that SWF's source code (labelled something like "click here for source code").
Hoping that this helps, I remain

Paging problem with Crystal Report Viewer in VS 2013

I am attempting to upgrade a VS 2008 project that uses a dozen plus Crystal Reports to display data for our owners.
The problem that i am having is with navigating to other pages of any multiple page report using the paging buttons of the Report Viewer control. The report will load fine and display the first page. If I try and go to page two an overlay covers the screen and a progress graphic displays and will never go away. I have to stop debugging the project and restart it. I have been able to get the paging buttons to work if I click on one of the asp.net buttons that I have added to the page that run the .ShowFirstPage(), .ShowNextPage();.ShowPreviousPage(); or .ShowLastPage(); methods of the ReportViewer control. When in click on one of these buttons an error displays within the ReportViewer control that reads simply "ERROR". From there I can click on one of the asp.net button described above and the report displays and at this time the navigation buttons work as expected.
The parameters are being set via a series of asp controls and then stored in ViewState then passed to the ParameterFieldInfo of the ReportViewer control.
This all works just fine in VS 2008 project but I have not been able to resolve the paging issue since upgrading.
Does anyone have any ideas as two what may be causing this behavior?

Thanks for your reply.
I am on SP 9.
I moved the block assigning the report source of the ReportViewer to the Page_Init method, but that did not change anything.
The reports are loaded when the user clicks on a link button specifying the report that they wish to view. In the click event of the button a method is called to set the LogOnInfo for each table of the reportsource;
Tables tables = reportSource.ReportDocument.Database.Tables;
foreach ( CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table table in tables ) {
var logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo;
logonInfo.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo;
table.ApplyLogOnInfo( logonInfo );
Then all the parameters are set;
crvReportViewer.Visible = true;
crvReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo.Clear();
SetDateValuesForParameterFields();
SetEquipClassValuesForParameterFields();
crvReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo = paramFields;
crvReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo.AddRange( equipClassParamFields );
Session[ "CurrentReportSource" ] = crvReportViewer.ReportSource;
Then in the Page_Init I assign the ReportSource of the ReportViewer control;
if (Session["CurrentReportSourceId"] != null)
crvReportViewer.ReportSource = Session["CurrentReportSource"];
And in Page_Load;
if ( Page.IsPostBack ) {
ApplicationSettings appSettings = AppConfigSettings.LoadSettings();
connectionInfo.ServerName = appSettings.PrimarySettings.Server;
connectionInfo.DatabaseName = appSettings.PrimarySettings.DataSource;
connectionInfo.UserID = appSettings.PrimarySettings.UserId;
connectionInfo.Password = appSettings.PrimarySettings.Password;
startDate.Name = "StartDate";
endDate.Name = "EndDate";
trailerNumber.Name = "TrailerNumber";
location.Name = "LocationId";
equipClass.Name = "EquipClass";
txtStartDate.Focus();
When in run this the reports will populate and display the first page but if I try to navigate to another page I get a error;
Unhandled exception at line 12, column 82761 in http://localhost:63034/aspnet_client/system_web/4_0_30319/crystalreportviewers13/allInOne.js
0x800a138f - Java Script runtime error: Unable to get property 'length' of undefined or null reference
And on the screen there is a wait spinner.
This all works fine in the VS2008 project.
Thanks,

Report Viewer and Multiple Data Sources

I know that it is possible to create a report in Crystal Reports using multiple data sources. But is it possible to use just the Free Report Viewer to view a report with Multiple Data Sources?
Our company uses Crystal Reports XI. I do not use the program myself, I am in the IT Department. I have limited knowledge of Crystal and do not do any of the report writing.
If this is possible, and if someone could help me out with what would need to be done, or point me in the right direction of a Knowledge Base or Help Topic that explains this, that would be great.
Thanks.

I believe it can but both data sources need to be set up. Ask a report designer to help you use the Designer to test this and see what is required.

Problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on windows application ("specified type is not valid ")

Hi
I am having problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on one of my windows application.
I am not sure how to put the Crystal Report Viewer 11 Control onto the tool box.
I could found a Crystal Report Viewer control on my computer, but it is version 8.5.
I have also found another one which is Called Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, i don't think it is the one I can use. As when I try to load a dummy report on to the Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, It return an error. "specified type is not valid"
Please see the Code sample below.
private sub loadReport()
     Dim r as New ReportDocument
     'v is the name of the Crystal ActiveX Report Viewer Control
     r.Load("C:\Report1.rtp")
     v.ReportSource(r) <---It throw error on this line.
End Sub
Could you give me some advice about what have I done wrong, How to check if I have set up the Crystal Report Component correctly in my Visual Studio 2005 Standard edition.
Thanks in advances.
Many thanks
Chi

VS 2005 Standard and Express editions do not come with Crystal Reports; only the Professional and higher editions will have CR bundled. However, I believe you can purchase CR XI R2 Developer and it will give you the components you need to create a VS .NET 2005 application using the Standard edition.

Trying to programmatically set the data-source for a Crystal reports report.

I've got the following existing procedure that I need to add to in order to programmatically set the data-source (server, database, username, and password) for a Crystal reports report.
I added the connectionInfo parts, but can’t figure out how to attach this to the existing
this._report object.
This is currently getting the connection data from the report file, but I now need to populate this connection data from a 'config.xml' text file.
Am I trying to do this all wrong?
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using WGS.Reports.Reports;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;
using WGS.Reports.Forms;
namespace WGS.Reports
public class ReportService
ReportClass _report;
ParameterFields paramFields;
ConnectionInfo connectionInfo; // <- I added this
public ReportService()
public void DisplayReport(string reportName, int allocationNo)
if (reportName.ToLower() == "allocationexceptions")
this._report = new AllocationExceptions();
PrepareConnection(); // <- I added this
PrepareAllocationExceptionReport(allocationNo);
this.DisplayReport();
private void PrepareConnection() // <- I added this
//test - these will come from the config.xml file
this.connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
this.connectionInfo.ServerName = "testserv\\test";
this.connectionInfo.DatabaseName = "testdb";
this.connectionInfo.UserID = "testuser";
this.connectionInfo.Password = "test";
this.connectionInfo.Type = ConnectionInfoType.SQL;
private void PrepareAllocationExceptionReport(int allocationNo)
this.paramFields = new ParameterFields();
this.paramFields.Clear();
ParameterField paramField = new ParameterField { ParameterFieldName = "@AllocationNo" };
ParameterDiscreteValue discreteVal = new ParameterDiscreteValue { Value = allocationNo };
paramField.CurrentValues.Add(discreteVal);
paramFields.Add(paramField);
private void DisplayReport()
frmReportViewer showReport = new frmReportViewer();
showReport.ReportViewer.ReportSource = this._report;
showReport.ReportViewer.ParameterFieldInfo = paramFields;
showReport.ShowDialog();
showReport.Dispose();
Any help would be much appreciated.

Crystal report viewer does not observe the PaperSize and PageOrientation setting

Hi:
My application is a 3 tier application, where the WinForm client is connected to the WCF Services hosted in IIS server.
The report is generated on server side using WCF service, and export as.rpt with data, the .rpt file is then sent to the WinForm client, the Crystal Report viewer is used to load the .rpt file for preview and print.
On server side I've Microsoft XPS Document Writer installed and set as default printer. On the client side if the default printer is XPS or Nitro PDF creator, the report can be view and print correctly, report design in landscape will be able to show in the landscape in CR viewer, report design using custom paper size (e.g. Half Letter), CR viewer able to show it in Half Letter.
The problem that I'm facing is when the default printer is set to HP LaserJet P1120 or others (I've tried Epson ESC/P Standard driver), the report is always shown in the portrait, and it will not be able to show in custom paper size either. Here is my code:
     Dim settings As New System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings
     Dim rep as New ReportDocument
     rep.Load(sOutputFileName)     'The report is download from server and save in sOutputFileName
     SetReportPaperSize(rep, sPaperSizeName, False, settings) ' sPaperSizeName store the name of the custom paper used in the report
     CrViewer.ReportSource = rep
   Public Shared Sub SetReportPaperSize(rep As ReportDocument, paperSizeName As String, isHardCopy As Boolean, settings As Printing.PrinterSettings)
      Dim installedPrinters As Printing.PrinterSettings.StringCollection = Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters
      Dim printers As New List(Of String)
      Dim sPrinter As String
      If installedPrinters.Count = 0 Then
         Return
      End If
      SetPrinterDefaultPaperSize(rep.PrintOptions, paperSizeName, settings)
      With rep.PrintOptions
         .PrinterName = settings.PrinterName
         .PaperSource = PaperSource.Auto
         If paperSizeName.Trim.Length > 0 Then
            .PaperSize = DirectCast(GetPapersizeId(paperSizeName, settings, rep.PrintOptions.PaperSize), CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperSize)
         End If
      End With
   End Sub
   Public Shared Sub SetPrinterDefaultPaperSize(printOptions As PrintOptions, paperSizeName As String, settings As Printing.PrinterSettings)
      With settings.DefaultPageSettings
         If paperSizeName.Trim.Length = 0 Then
            . PaperSize = GetPaperSize (printOptions.PaperSize, settings)
         Else
            For Each size As Printing.PaperSize In settings.PaperSizes
               If size.PaperName.EqualsTo(paperSizeName) Then
                  .PaperSize = size
                  Exit For
               End If
            Next
         End If
         .Landscape = printOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape
         .Margins.Top = printOptions.PageMargins.topMargin
         .Margins.Left = printOptions.PageMargins.leftMargin
         .Margins.Bottom = printOptions.PageMargins.bottomMargin
         .Margins.Right = printOptions.PageMargins.rightMargin
      End With
   End Sub
   Public Shared Function GetPaperSize(paperSizeId As Integer, defaultPrinterSettings As Printing.PrinterSettings) As Printing.PaperSize
      Dim settings As Printing.PrinterSettings = defaultPrinterSettings
      Dim result As Printing.PaperSize
      If settings Is Nothing Then
         settings = New Printing.PrinterSettings
      End If
      ' Default paper Size defined in the printer
      result = settings.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize
      For Each size As Printing.PaperSize In settings.PaperSizes
         If size.RawKind = paperSizeId Then
            result = size
            Exit For
         End If
      Next
      Return result
   End Function

      Dim settings As Printing.PrinterSettings = defaultPrinterSettings
      Dim result As Integer = defaultpaperSizeId
      If settings Is Nothing Then
         settings = New Printing.PrinterSettings
      End If
      If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(paperSizeName) Then
         For Each size As Printing.PaperSize In settings.PaperSizes
            ' Height and Width in Printing.PaperSize is measure in hundredths of an inch
            If size.PaperName.EqualsTo(paperSizeName) Then
               result = size.RawKind
               Exit For
            End If
         Next
      End If
      Return result
   End Function
Setting the PrintOptions.PaperSize and PageOrientation seem like no effect on the viewer. My code to load the report to CR viewer is much more complicated than the code I show above, I've a background worker thread to download the report, and when the worker thread finished download the report from the server, it will assign the report to CRViewer. Do the changes in report PrintOption before assign to CRViewe and after assigning to CRViewer make any different?
I'm using VS2010, CR XI R2 (Version 11.5.3700.0). Please Help. Thanks

JC Voon

Hi JC,
CRXI R2 is a no go with VS 2010, these two are not compatible.
With CR 11.5 use VS 2005.
Or Use VS 2010 and CR for VS 2010 (13.0)
Once you have the supported / compatible conbination of CR and VS, use the In Proc RAS .NET code from below KBA.

Crystal Report Viewer (SmartViewerActiveX/ActiveXViewer) barcode problem

I am using the crystal reports viewer to show my reports in my asp website.
In the reports, I have a barcode using the font source IDAutomationHC39M.ttf.
This code must be a certain size that I indicated in my report design.
The problem is that the viewer appears in the browser with the barcode expanded to full size, and not with the size that I indicated in report design.
If I print from the program Crystal Reports, it appears according to the size indicated.
It seems that this is a problem of the Viewer in the browser.
Someone can help me? this matter is very urgent.
Thank you.

Thread moved to the .NET - SAP Crystal Reports forum.
A few details missing:
1) Version of CR?
2) CR updates applied?
3) Version of .NET?
4) OS?
5) What browser and version?
6) is the issue present on dev / deployed computer / both?

Crystal Reports Viewer - pdf, prompts, icons problem

Hi all,
I am a new in BO.
I have some answer about Crystal Reports Viewer (not about setup.exe but about CRV application that I uploaded on Tomcat)
1) The old version (11.5) works good, only Export to PDF functionality is wrong. There are in the pdf file wrong display of specific czech characters (charset)
2) A new version, Crystal Reports Viewer 2008, show the same pdf mistake. I have J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 4 and Apache Tomcat 5.5.9.
I upload application on Tomcat, configuration (web.xml, crconfig.xml and context.xml) is the same with version 11.5.
Crystal Reports Viewer 2008 displayed reports, but the problem with PDF is present. The second problem is the look of CRV. First one, the icons (for export, print...all icons) are not displayd. I can copy old jar files into java (in application folder C:\WebReports\WEB-INF\lib), but then CRV looks like old version.
And CRV 2008 doesn't display listbox in dynamic prompt on crystal report. What shall I set to displaying prompts in CRV 2008 (on CRV or on report in Crystal 2008)?
Have you some idea? What and how can I set and configure application and where?

Hi,
To confirm, are you talking about "Crystal Reports Viewer 2008" http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/reporting/viewer/index.epx
I suggest sending in the report, in the viewer, select "Help" - "General Feedback" and then pick the option to attach the report. In a couple of months there will be a refresh version of this view which will have Czech language support so it would be good if we could test out your PDF issue.
As for showing parameters in the prompt panel in Crystal Reports Viewer 2008, since the viewer cannot refresh the data, make sure the parameter does not used in the record selection formula but only in the saved data selection formula.
