Subreport - how to make it print text if no results returned in subreport

Hi,
I'm using Crystal XI.
In my subreport, if the report returns zero records I would like it to display one set of text (ex: No records found), but if it finds records to display another set of text (ex: 5 records found).
I create and display a formula and it works fine if it finds records, but displays nothing if no records are found. I've tried everything I can think of but can't get it to display. Also, is there a way to display the number of records actually found?
I've made sure that in my subreport, that File / Report Options, that the "Suppress printing if no records" is Unchecked.
Thanks,
Erwin

Hi Erwin,
Create a section and add a text box with 'no details found' or similar. Right-click the same section and enter a suppression formula:-
not isnull({Field name})
This field must be such that will never be null if there are record there.
Please let us know if this helps.

How to make separate/individual text frame from one parent frame in indesign with javascript

Hi all,
Please suugest - how to make separate/individual text frame from one parent frame in indesign with javascript.
Thanks

@Larry – ah, your interpretation could be the right one…
May I rephrase the question:
"How to split threaded text frames to single ones?"
"SplitStory.jsx" or "BreakFrame.jsx" under Scripts/Samples indeed could be the answer.
From the comments in the code of "BreakFrame.jsx":
//Removes the selected text frame (or text frames) from the
//story containing the text frame and removes the text contained
//by the text frame from the story.
//If you want to split *all* of the text fames in the story, use the
//SplitStory.jsx script.

How to make Dynamically Shortened Text With "Show More"

Hi there! i want to know how to make dynamically shortened text with show more or read more in my website using HTML 5 pages or ASP.NET ?
example like these paragraphs
Lorem Ipsum är en utfyllnadstext från tryck- och förlagsindustrin. Lorem ipsum har varit standard ända sedan 1500-talet, när en okänd boksättare tog att antal bokstäver och blandade dem för att göra ett provexemplar av en bok. Lorem ipsum har inte bara överlevt fem århundraden, utan även övergången till elektronisk typografi utan större förändringar. Det blev allmänt känt på 1960-talet i samband med lanseringen av Letraset-ark med avsnitt av Lorem Ipsum, och senare med mjukvaror som Aldus PageMaker.
Det är ett välkänt faktum att läsare distraheras av läsbar text på en sida när man skall studera layouten. Poängen med Lorem Ipsum är att det ger ett normalt ordflöde, till skillnad från "Text här, Text här", och ger intryck av att vara läsbar text. Många publiseringprogram och webbutvecklare använder Lorem Ipsum som test-text, och en sökning efter "Lorem Ipsum" avslöjar många webbsidor under uteckling. Olika versioner har dykt upp under åren, ibland av olyckshändelse, ibland med flit (mer eller mindre humoristiska).
I motsättning till vad många tror, är inte Lorem Ipsum slumvisa ord. Det har sina rötter i ett stycke klassiskt litteratur på latin från 45 år före år 0, och är alltså över 2000 år gammalt. Richard McClintock, en professor i latin på Hampden-Sydney College i Virginia, översatte ett av de mer ovanliga orden, consectetur, från ett stycke Lorem Ipsum och fann dess ursprung genom att studera användningen av dessa ord i klassisk litteratur. Lorem Ipsum kommer från styckena 1.10.32 och 1.10.33 av "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (Ytterligheterna av ont och gott) av Cicero, skriven 45 före år 0. Boken är en avhandling i teorier om etik, och var väldigt populär under renäsanssen. Den inledande meningen i Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem Ipsum dolor sit amet...", kommer från stycke 1.10.32.
Den ursprungliga Lorem Ipsum-texten från 1500-talet är återgiven nedan för de intresserade. Styckena 1.10.32 och 1.10.33 från "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" av Cicero hittar du också i deras originala form, åtföljda av de engelska översättningarna av H. Rackham från 1914.

Moved to the main Dreamweaver support forum.
There are several ways you could approach this. Here's one you might try:
Give the first paragraph an ID, such as "first", and wrap the paragraphs you want to hide in a <div> with another ID, such as "more". Then add the following block of JavaScript just before the closing </body> tag of the page:
<script>
var first = document.getElementById('first'),
     more = document.getElementById('more'),
     trigger = document.createElement('span');
trigger.id = 'trigger';
trigger.innerHTML = 'Show less';
first.appendChild(trigger);
function toggleDiv() {
var state = more.className,
       text = trigger.innerHTML;
more.className = (state == 'open') ? 'closed' : 'open';
trigger.innerHTML = (text == 'Show more') ? 'Show less' : 'Show more';
toggleDiv();
if (trigger.addEventListener) {
    trigger.addEventListener('click', toggleDiv, false);
} else if (trigger.attachEvent) {
trigger.attachEvent('onclick', toggleDiv);
} else {
trigger.onclick = toggleDiv;
</script>
This gets references to the "first" paragraph and the "more" <div>. It also creates a <span> with the ID "trigger" that's appended to the "first" paragraph. The rest of the script defines a function called toggleDiv(), which toggles the "more" <div> open and closed, and changes the text in the "trigger" <span>.
You also need to create the following style rules for the various elements:
<style>
#trigger {
    text-decoration: underline;
    color: blue;
    cursor: pointer;
#more {
    transition: ease-out .7s;
    overflow: hidden;
#more p:first-child {
    margin-top: 0;
#more.closed {
    height: 0;
    -webkit-transform: translateY(-600px);
    transform: translateY(-600px);
#more.open {
    -webkit-transform: translateY(0);
    transform: translateY(0);
    max-height: 600px;
#more + p {
    margin-top: 0;
</style>
This solution hides the text and creates the "trigger" <span> only if JavaScript is enabled in the browser. It should work in all browsers, including Internet Explorer 8 and earlier.

How to make a tts text-to-speech keyboard shortcut

Hi,
How do I make a tts text-to-speech keyboard shortcut
to control the OSX "Speech" available as a contextual menu
when you right-click selected text in Safari, TextEdit and other native apps
*Speech > Start Speaking*
*Speech > Stop Speaking*
I can get this far:
*System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts >*
I have low-vision and need this on as many as possible or all text running on my computer.
Less important: The "Speech" contextual menu is not available right-clicking text in Google Chrome. I could sure use it there too.
THANKS!

If you want it turned on permanently open Universal Access preferences, click on the Seeing tab, turn on VoiceOver. Click on the VoiceOver Application button for more configuration options.
There's also a shortcut option for TTS in the Speech preferences.

Newsstand app how to make the print larger

Hi - I have download a magazine however how do I make the print larger. I am not finding the option.

It sounds like you'd be fine if you just separated the print function from your "Yes" button. It will require a 2nd button click from the user but that would be the only inconvenience.

How to make a impressive text animation?

Hi everyone,
I have completed my video, but now I want to add some text to it, I tried using title, and I love one of those style in there, but I want to make a impressive text animation (transition). There's no way I can do it with the effect control tab, I want text appear and disappear with fire around or appear like typing style something like that. Is that anyway to do it, or any other softwares that can easily do what I expected? Please help, this is urgent.
Thank you.

Besides the great suggestions so far, you might want to look into a couple of 3rd party programs:
BluffTitler (I think that it has a "fire" Effect as a Preset, and does have "Typewriter")
ProDAD's Vitascene, along with their Heroglyph
Pixelan's Spice Master (more for Transitons, but you can create custom Effects too)
Good luck,
Hunt

How to make a report based on the result of another report?

Hi, All,
I am a new guy in BW development
I made the report1, to show the "Total Sales in each country and each shop "
(the fact table is "Order")
now I want to make report2 "in each countries, the number of the shops, whose Total Sales >100000"
Can I make the report2 based on the result of report1 (use the same fact table)
thanks a lot
QY

Hi Klaus,
your condition only works if the Shop is in the query. If I understood it correctly you have one query with
Country   Shop   Total Sales
and one with
Country   Number of Shops   Total Sales
and you don't want to restrict the second Total Sales but the Total Sales from the first query.
Best regards

How to make the print command wait until form is rendered.

This is an ongoing issue that so far I haven't been able to figure out how to fix, so I'm hoping that someone will have a good idea or work around. I'm working in LiveCycle Designer ES v8. using JavaScript.
I have to include a feature that allows the user the choice to print out a dynamic form to fill out by hand. So I've created a button that asks if this is what they want to do, if they answer "Yes", then several things are scripted to happen. All data is reset, some subforms and pages are made visible, while other subforms are hidden, and text fields are expanded. This causes the form to expand from one page to 15 pages. Then it prints using this command:
xfa.host.print(1,
"0", (xfa.host.numPages -1).toString(), 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
The problem is that when the print dialogue box appears, the Print Range is always set to less than the total number of pages. It looks like that the print commands fires before the form has completed rendering. This isn't a big deal since the user can click to set the Print Range to "All" which will print all 15 pages. The problem is that most people don't read the dialogue box. They click "okay" and end up with their form cut off. Then I get phone calls that my form doesn't work.
Is there anyway to delay the print command until everything has finished rendering? Or set the Print Range to always go to "All"?
Thanks in advance for your help with this.

It sounds like you'd be fine if you just separated the print function from your "Yes" button. It will require a 2nd button click from the user but that would be the only inconvenience.

How to Make an Expanding Text Container?

Is it possible to create a div tag (or some type of container
object) that can reference a large body of text (such as a long
article for example) and only show the first few paragraphs with a
link at the bottom to expand the container to show the entire
contents pushing any objects below it further down the page?
I'm using php to include a large html article inside of a div
tag on a newsletter page and would like to learn how to create a
partial display that can expand to show everything only if the user
decides to read more.
Could someone please point me in the right direction in order
to learn how to do this?
Thanks!
~Greg

Here is what you have in the onclick event :
if(document.getElementById('article_snippet').style.display
== 'block') {
document.getElementById('article_snippet').style.display =
'none';
document.getElementById('article').style.display = 'block';
}else{
document.getElementById('article').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('article_snippet').style.display =
'block'
On first click, you are checking 'article_snippet' for the
value of
.style.display However, the wayt it works is that .style
values are
NEVER the one in an external, or even an embedded style
sheet. They is
ONLY the ones in *inline* styling. And your div does not have
that
style inline initially.
So, on the first click, no such style is found, and the else
phrase is
run, setting an INLINE value for
article_snippet.style.display to 'block'.
Then on the second click the first condition is met because
the element
now has an inline style with display=block, And the script
now runs as
you thought it would on first click.
Does that make sense?
