Unable to view tables in Database Expert

When I connect to one of my Oracle database servers via ODBC and expand the schema of interest, only see Stored Procedures displayed.  No tables or views available.
Checked the Options and under 'Data Explorer' the Tables & Views are checked.
Any suggestions on what is wrong with the configuration?  Am able to connect to another database server and have no problems in viewing the tables/views.
Thanks in advance.

Lewis,
By default CR will only read the first 8000 objects from a database. Try unchecking stored procedures and views. This will only return the tables from the DB.
If you can see the tables after this then there is a registry key that determines how many objects will be returned to CR. You can increase this amount. It is recommended that you back up your registry before editing though.

  • Unable to view table list in sql developer

    I am able to connect to the database through sql developer but unable to view tables list.
    Select query is displaying the contents though.
    Any Help ???

    Using SQL Developer, I log in using the owner user id and password. I can see all but one of my materialized views. It was definitely created by the user id I'm logged in as. A query of user_objects in sql+ shows all MVs, including the one that's missing in SQL Developer. If I log in using the same credentials in TOAD, the MV is displayed in the current schema, as I'd expect. The super weird thing is that if I use the previous version of SQL Developer, I see that MV! Any thoughts?

  • Unable to view table list

    I am able to connect to the database through sql developer but unable to view tables list.
    Select query is displaying the contents though.
    Any Help ???

    I am on Windows XP using SQLDeveloper Build 5440 and I am having a similar problem (I think).
    I am able to connect to the database, I am able to see a list of all the tables (as the owner) in the tree but i can not see anything under columns and am shown 5 all null rows under data. I am able to view statistics, DDL and I can query the table with a select and get results. I have tried reverting to an older versin of SQLDeveloper but that gave me the same result.
    If this is the same problem then I am having it too. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • Fields missing from MYSQL table in Database Expert

    I have just updgraded from Crystal XI to 2011 and I am still having issues with joining a mysql table to any other table.
    Fields show up in field explorer but when I try to uise Database expert the only filed in the MYSQL table is the ID field.
    Am I missing something here. Same problem with both versions. When I runa report using just the mysql table evrything works fine.

    Typically if the field doesn't show up the CR can't figure out what type it is which means when we query the DB for the field type the client/server returns the wrong type or some type that CR doesn't support.
    How is the field defined on the server?
    Thank you

  • Regarding privilege to view tables in database

    hi,
    since i am just a begginer in my job as DBA,so any body could help me.The problem is i connected to database and created my own user and granted privilege to view and select particular table in the database.But later when i connected through my user to same database i could not select the table.pleaze any one could give me solution..

    Ensure if you have created the table/view in that new user's schema or using dba sys schema.
    In any case, you can use schema.table/view_name to select and view the contents of the table.
    Or you can login as sysdba and find the table by querying the dba_tables view.
    Hope that helps
    Z.K.

  • Unable to view table name

    Hi,
    I have an existing schema A and from there I created another user account. I tried granting select on a few tables from the user oracle account to the main account in schema A. The problem arises when I tried creating reports, under the query definition >> add/remove columns, I could not pull out the tables which I have granted earlier on. Any idea how I should resolve this?
    Thanks!
    Neko

    Yes, granted. Not sure if Administrator side needs to grant the schema to the current workspace I am working with.

  • Database Expert -- Views at End of Alpha List Do Not Appear

    I'm working with an MS-SQL database. All the table in it, from A to Z show up.  The DB vendor wants us to use views to access data for reports, however.  And looking at the list of views in the Database Expert -- the list is cut off in the vwRs. 
    So for example, vwPersons is visible, as is vwReports.
    But vwTopicCodes, in same DB, and at least 40 other tables from vwSales to vwZipCodes, do not appear.
    Any logical place to start looking for the cause of this kind of behavior?
    Thanks,

    This article may help you
    KBase Article ID:c2013280
    Article refers to: Crystal Reports XI Crystal Reports 10 Crystal Reports .NET Crystal Reports 9 Crystal Reports 8.5
    Symptom
    In Crystal Reports (CR), when connecting to a database that has 10,000 objects, only 8,000 of  these objects are returned.
    Why does CR only return 8,000 database objects?
    Cause
    The number of database objects returned to CR is determined by the setting in the Windows Registry. The default value for this registry setting is 8,000. You can change this default value by editing the Windows registry setting, NTablesMax.
    NTablesMax - specifies the number of database  objects to get a listing of from the database. Once this number is reached the listing of objects in Crystal Reports is stopped. Objects can include tables, views, synonyms and stored procedures.
    Resolution
    ====================
    "WARNING:"
    "Using the Registry Editor can cause serious problems that may require reinstalling the operating system. Business Objects is not responsible for any problems resulting from using the Windows Registry Editor. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk.

    ====================
    To access the NTablesMax item in the registry:
    1. On the Start menu, click Run.
    2. Type "Regedit", then click OK. The Registry Editor will appear.
    3. Browse to the following folder:
    CR XI Release 2
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\FetchOptions
    CR XI (Release 1)
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\FetchOptions
    CR 10
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Crystal Reports\FetchOptions
    CR 9
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal Reports\FetchOptions
    CR 8.5
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Seagate Software\Crystal Reports\FetchOptions
    4. In the right-hand window of the Registry Editor, double-click NTablesMax. The 'Edit DWORD Value' dialog box appears.
    5. Select Decimal.
    6. In the Value Data text box type "10,000". Click OK.
    7. Close the Registry Editor and then restart your computer.
    The next time you open Crystal Reports, you will be able to see all 10,000 database objects.
