Unable to view Field Explorer

In Crystal Reports 2008, I've been working with a client who is unable to view the Field Explorer window to edit her report.  When you select the View menu and Field Explorer, nothing happens.  We can verify the database and are connected to our table fine, but can't seem to access the Field Explorer for editing.  The only work-around is to use a wizard to create reports, but it's very time-consuming trying to make changes and edit that way.  Has anyone seen this before?  We don't have access to the setup files to try reinstalling, but we can track them down if that's the best starting point.  I just thought it was odd and wondered if there was an easy fix.  Thanks

click on View | Toolbars and in the pop up window, check the box next to Reset all toolbars and explorers on next restart.
Restart CR 2008 and see if the field explorer displays.

  • Unable to view field "Tax Report date" (BKPF-VATDATE) in accounting doc

    Hi friends,
    I am unable to get and view the field "Tax Report date" (BKPF-VATDATE) in accounting document when the invoices are atutomatically posted via SD(Transaction VF01) and MM(MIRO transactions). But we can get and view the same field if we post the invoice manually through the transaction FB60.
    Could you please let me know where is the control even to get the same field when the invoices are automatically posted through SD and MM.

  • Unable to view field point properties

    Hi All,
    Can anybody tell me why I could not open the field point properties in order for me to configure my modules?  I am still operating on LabView 7.1 and I have used 3 express VI's. They were working before and all of a sudden, they're not. I tried opening and closing (even rebooting the computer) and still not able to open the VI properties for those 3 VI's. What's weird is that all other programs that were made before this one, they are all having the same problem as well. Pls. let me know if anyone knows anything. Attached is an image of the problem I'm getting.
    Thanks,
    Marcos

    Hi Marcos,
    Good Morning and I hope your well today.
    Thanks for the post.
    So you see this error when you click on one of the Field Point Express VIs?
    If so, these VIs interface with the Field Point using the NI-Field Point driver. Have you got this installed, and if so what version? I would suggest updating the driver if at all possible. The download link is here,
    Drivers and Updates
    http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/fn/p/sb/navsRel/lang/​en?q=Field+Point&x=0&y=0
    And I believe the latest driver 6.0.3/6.0.4 supports LV RT 7.1.
    Make sure when you install the driver, you include support for LabVIEW 7.1. 
    Within LabVIEW 7.1 are the express VIs available on the palette? If so, do they also generate the error when you place them on the block diagram?
    You say it used to work, have you since installed a newer version of LabVIEW? or updated the driver already? Without including support for LabVIEW 7.1?
    Kind Regards

  • Unable to view enhanced field in Data Source

    Hi All,
    We recently upgraded our R/3 system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. Now when we are enhancing the data source, the field is visible in the Extract Structure. But we are unable to view it in the data source. We checked out in RSA2 the enhanced field attribute is specified as 'Field in OLTP and BW Hidden by SAP'. We have written code to modifiy the ROOSFIELD table to make the enahnced field visible. But this is the problem with all the data sources. Whenever, we have to enahnce, we have to go thru this process to make the enhanced field visible.
    Is it like that we missied out any patch in ECC 6.0 while upgrade? If any person faced similar situation, please help us.

    Hi Ravi,
    I think you are missing a step here. As soon as you enhance your datasource with new fields, by default, those 2 check boxes are checked ( Hidden and Field in User exit only). You go to RSA6, edit your datasource and here, you can uncheck these added fields so that you can use them. You do not need to write any code to change the fields settings in ROOSFIELD table. Do the step I mentioned above after enhancing and you should be good. Hope it helps.
    Thanks and Regards

    Now we have a lot of views which select data from the tables, but I need to get the "Table Column Name" that is linked in the view.
    If you are using SQL Server 2012/2014, then you can use
    sys.dm_exec_describe_first_result_set (Transact-SQL) to gte the informations.

  • After idoc regenration unable to view the field in IDOC

    Hi,
    I have enhanced the business partner by EEWB.
    After tha i have regenarted the message type CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE and bo type BUS1006 by Tcode BDFG.
    After that also i am unable to view the field in Basin type  CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE01 [message type CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE ].
    New Zfield added through EEWB is available in CRMXIF_PARTNER_COMPLEX structre.But not coming in IDOC.
    Please advice.
    Regards
    Malay

    Hi,
    From your thread i have understood that the EEWB extended fields have not appeared in the IDoc after regeneration.
    For the customer enhancements there are some of the XIF segments provided by SAP to transport them to IDoc structure.
    Now that you have added the customer fields using EEWB. Please add the fields
    to CRMXIF_CUSTOMER_H and then regenerate the IDOC using BDFG.
    After extending these above mentioned structure kindly regenerate the Idoc Structures. I recommend
    not to add the enhancement fields to the CRMXIF_PARTNER_COMPLEX structure which might lead
    to inconsistency.
    You can make use of CRMXIF_CUSTOMER_H for customer enhancements.
    Regards,
    Venkat

  • Unable to view captivate 8 preview project in internet explorer

    unable to view captivate 8 preview>project in internet explorer.  I get 404 web page can't be found.  I haven't built an extensive layout.  I just changed the title text and subtitle text to preview in a browser.  It doesn't want to show any result.  I notice the web address is http://localhost:4932/HTML5Temp5276756792Pre/rindex.html, how do I ensure I'm pulling information from the correct location?  How do I set the parameters to get the file from the proper folder?  I have changed the cache folder location to an external hard drive and I need to know how to let internet explorer recognize where to search for the preview of a project.

    Nothing wrong with the web address. But this is a temporary address which gets generated while previewing.
    After making the changes, did you just hit a Refresh in the browser to preview the updated version? If yes, this won't work as the web address would be different for every preview. Every time you need to preview, you have to initiate it from within Captivate (shortcut for HTML5 preview is F11).

    Suddenly today I am unable to view my Google Calendar via Firefox. But I can view it with Internet Explorer. What gives?

    I have tried deleting all cookies and cache several times, but nothing works. I can open Google calendar but when I click on any entry I just get a blank box. If I try to make a new event entry nothing happens. Everything works fine in Internet Explorer.
    I am really getting tired of constant problems with Firefox. Every week I have something that doesn't work. One time it's downloading videos, the next week music or email, now Google calendar. I am about ready to give up Firefox forever.

  • No Data in Field Explorer

    CA Forum: .NET
    Hi... I'm currently using visual studio 2005 team edition and the built-in Crystal report.In my report, i use the Project data source (from ado.net, I created a view before in the database).In visual studio, when i open the view to see the the data in the table, i have 1 record.however, when i use that view (or even table) in the crystal report, when i try to browse the data from the field explorer, i see no data.please help me to fix this problem, is there anything wrong that i do? thank you in advance for your helpBest regards Danny

    Michael,
    We had a similar situation but from my reseach the output from the stored procs cannot be viewed in the report designer in Eclipse. So we had to design the reports using the Crystal Reports Devloper application (the stand-alone version, not the Eclipse editor). The reports were designed w/an ODBC datasource. In order to get that working we had to create a JNDI JDBC datasource connection w/the exact same name as the ODBC datasource and that works. For example, the ODBC datasource was named OP01DSDB01.WORLD so we just created a JNDI datasource w/that exact same name (no jdbc/OP01DSDB01.WORLD just OP01DSDB01.WORLD). I'm not sure if there is a workaround for any of this but this was the easiest way to get them working.
    I know this isn't the ideal situation, but that was the easiest way to get things working.

  • I am unable to view google ads running alongside and under videos on YouTube. This is only a problem when I use Firefox. If I use another browser, I can see the ads. I do not have adlock as it does not appear in my plug-ins/add ons. Please help..

    I have been using Firefox for about two years. For about a month now I have been unable to view any Google advertisements that run on YouTube pages alongside and under videos. This is important for my business. I would like to stay with Firefox, but this is only a problem when I use Firefox and is not a problem with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome as I checked. I tried uninstalling Firefox and all plugs ins and add ons and then reinstalling it. This did not work. Firefox seems to be blocking the Google codes that enable the ads to run on the pages. I look forward to your help. Thank you.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

  • Field explorer does not open on my terminal services profile

    Dear Sirs,
    For some reason I am unable to open my field explorer in any crystal report on my terminal services profile. I have checked with other profiles and the problem does not exist. The problem is specific to my profile. I can also create new reports and access fields however if I use the filed explorer button I cannot access fields, parameters or formulas from there. Problem just started this morning. We have been using crystal reports X1 for last 12 months. Would it be a terminal server issue?
    I would appreciate whatever help you can give me.
