Updated to CR 2008 - now have new problem with truncated String fields.

Hi there
I'm hoping someone has a simple answer for this one...  notice there's a lot of it on forums but I haven't found an answer.
Since updating to Crystal 2008 (Crystal 12), we have found that some reports are suddenly truncating string fields at 255 characters, despite the field value being much longer in the database.
Does anyone know what to do to allow these fields to print in completion?
Database connection is ODBC RDO.
regards
-Karen

What is the database Oracle, SQL server etc.
Can you query the database directly with another query tool, eg SQL Server Management Studion or SQL developer/Toad for Oracle.
You can then run the Crystal query directly and see if its your ODBC connection that is truncating the datafield or Crystal.
I have memo fields on SQL server with up to 2000 characters and these display in Crystal 2008 without any problem. We use ODBC (RDO) too.

    I recently upgraded our iMac to Yosemite OS and now have a problem with Photoshop Elements 11:  the move tool selects an image or text layer, but then I try to drag the selection somewhere else on the page and it snaps back to the original location, however the arrows will move it OK.  Also I cannot drag the selection to another photo in the photo bin as before.

    Are you losing the connection to iTunes on the iPad or the computer? You are saying that iTunes is updated. Of course iTunes is updated when you update the iOS software. That's a no brainer.
    If you mean that iTunes is updated on the computer, that has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with downloading and updating apps on the iPad itself so changing the date on the iPad, signing in and out of the stores on the iPad .... Doing any of that on the iPad would have nothing to do with iTunes on your computer.
    If .... you have not been able to connect to the iTunes or app stores at all on the iPad - try this ...
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
    If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If you can't connect at all - you can also try rebooting your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

  • Iv'e had my mac for 2 weeks & now have a problem with safari since I changed to a wireless super hub.  It will not open a web site I use my iPad & windows lap top will.  Apple support say it's the DNS settings cable say there okay please can anyone help

    Iv'e had my mac for 2 weeks safari was working great until I changed to a wire less super hub.  Safari will not let me open & log into a web site I go on a lot.  My ipad & windows lap top will on the same network.  Apple have said it's the DNS setting my cable provider say it's not it's a problem with my mac.  Iv'e phoned apple lots of times same with cable provider Iv'e tried a few things it has not helped solve the problem.  I'm now advised to return my mac to the shop for a check.  Has anyone else had this problem I would appreciate any help because I'm going round in circles.

    Adding a couple of DNS numbers sometimes helps:
    System Preferences>Network, select your wifi or ethernet network on the left and click on the 'advanced' button and then the DNS tab. On the left side of the window make a note of any DNS numbers listed so that you can re-instate them if necessary and then click on the '+" button bottom left of the window. Type 8.8.8.8 and click the + again and type 8.8.4.4 save the settings and try the website again.
    BTW, I have the same problem with Firefox not letting me input my password in secure sites. I did find a workround in the network settings in Firefpx prefs, but it didn't stick so I reverted to using Chrome as alternative browser. No problems with that so long as you don't mind Google looking over your shoulder

  • A record selection problem with a string field when UNICODE database

    We used report files made by Crystal Reports 9 which access string fields
    (char / varchar2 type) of NON-UNICODE database tables.
    Now, our new product needs to deal with UNICODE database, therefore,
    we created another database schema changing table definition as below.
    (The table name and column name are not changed.)
        char type -> nchar type
        varchar2 type -> nvarchar2 type
    When we tried to access the above table, and output a report,
    the SQL statement created from the report seemed to be wrong.
    We confirmed the SQL statement using Oracle trace function.
        SELECT (abbr.) WHERE "XXXVIEW"."YYY"='123'.
    We think the above '123' should be N'123' because UNICODE string
    is stored in nchar / nvarchar2 type field.
    Question:
    How can we obtain the correct SQL statement in this case?
    Is there any option setting?
    FYI:
    The environment are as follows.
        Oracle version: 11.2.0
        ODBC version: 11.2.0.1
        National character set: AL16UTF16

    With further investigating, we found patterns that worked well.
    Worked well patters:
        Oracle version: 11.2.0
        ODBC version: 11.2.0.1
        National character set: AL16UTF16
        Report file made by Crystal Reports 2011
        Crystal Reports XI
    Not worked patters:
        Oracle version: 11.2.0 (same above)
        ODBC version: 11.2.0.1 (same above)
        National character set: AL16UTF16 (same above)
        Report file made by Crystal Reports 2011 (same above)
        Crystal Reports 2008 / 2011
    We think this phenomenon is degraded behavior of Crystal Reports 2008 / 2011.
    But we have to use the not worked patters.
    Anything wrong with us? Pls help.

  • Why is my Pages and Numbers no longer working? Seems they both now have a problem with the latest Mac OS X Update

    Hi
    I Have a Macbook Pro and always update the OS so it is current. It is now Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
    I purchased a copy of Pages and Numbers online a few months back and had no problems using them. Pages version is 4.2 and Numbers is 2.2
    Today they both give me the same message - 'Pages cannot be opened because of a problem' - it then asks me to report it to a Developer.
    It says I may need to re-install the software - but how do I do this if I purchased it via the online Appstore? Here's the first few lines of the report;
    Process:         Pages [308]

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Has this happended to others?

    Re-installing Pages through Appstore has fixed the problem.

  • Something was corrupted and now have a Problem with AW Model view ..

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem creating and viewing the model view for an AW using AWM ver 10.2
    I right click on the Analytic workspace and select create analytical workspace from
    the drop down list.. I give it a name and it seems to create it successfully ie it
    appears in the list with an (attached RW) next to it.
    However when i try to expand it .. a message appears .. reading analytic workspace..
    and then I get an error message unable to attach analytic workspace.
    It was working fine in the past and does work against another server..
    Also i can open it in the object view so it must be related to the model view.
    any ideas what I could check to diagnose the problem or what might have been corrupted on the server
    that could cause this ..
    .. the error messages are below
    thanks
    Mike

    Did you also check more than one user account to eliminate possible user-specific problems?  Do NOT use the "Guest" account for this test.  If you do not have more than one user account for the testing, create a new one now.  If you need help, here's how to do it in your Mac OS:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
    •  Then, if you have not already done so, restart Mac and
        try again.  If the iSight still does not work, continue.
    • If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
       suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you
       used the correct "reset" procedure?), yours is most likely a
       hardware problem that will require a professional fix.
       Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
      Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
    "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
    • If you want to try one more thing on your own first,
      use Disk Utility to repair permissions.  Then
      download and apply the latest Combo Update for
      your OS.  Currently, the latest SL Combo is here:
        http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of iSight. Have your Mac professionally serviced.
    The only other user action I could sugget is to completely reinstall your Mac OS.  If none of these suggestions resolve your trouble, I think you will need an Apple-Authorized Service Provider to fix your cam.

  • Having downloaded and installed the latest Maverick Ios I now have a problem with mail.All my mailboxes were in alphabetical order now they are arrange randomly under my mail account, sync does not rearrange them whilst the order in the ISP account is in

    I have downloaded Maverick 10.9 and installed , now my mailboxes in mail are randomly arranged as opossed to being in alphebetical order from A at the top to Z at the bottom how do you rearrenge the mailboxes in an alphbetical order.
    Sync with my provider Gmail does not rearrange them on my Imac

    Thanks for that .
    My actual problem I may not have made very clear - sorry.
    i.e.
    [email protected]
    AA insurance
    Xero
    apple
    building
    insurance
    etc.
    Shows the way the mailboxes are listed in the mail program under any particular provider, in my case I have three mail provider accounts with mail moved from the inbox to the appropraite mailbox eg [email protected] , Xero - where the incomeing mail is filed.
    My problem is to arrange these mailboxes/folders in an alphabetical order under the [email protected] account

    PSE 9 should install just fine without any problems on Windows 8 system.
    PS CS version (Photoshop CS) might be a problem because it is a very old product.  You can get Photoshop CS2 free of charge from Adobe at this link:
    <https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=cs2_downloads>
    You need to login using your Adobe ID and the page will give you access to All CS2 products with relevant serial numbers.  You don't need to activate these products if you use the serial numbers provided by Adobe.

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

  • HT1296 I'm having difficulty syncing my iCal between my home computer and iPhone.  New entries from my home are not syncing with the phone and vice-versa.  I didn't have any problems with this before until the latest phone update.  Any suggestions?

    I'm having difficulty syncing my iCal between my home computer and iPhone.  New entries from my home are not syncing with the phone and vice-versa.  I didn't have any problems with this before until the latest phone update.  Any suggestions?

    It could be that the existing wire in your appartment is not clean enough to provision DSL only. When combined with the phone possibly it has a higher line voltage and worked before. Now that the line is to be provisioned without phone service it may be giving them trouble that did not show before they came out and ran the new line test. So a new jack dedecated for your DSL line may require a new wire be run to your appartment. Also the account for internet only used to require direct billing to a credit card or something else. This was a number of years ago. Most accounts are linked to a phone number, and without a voice number it adds to the confusion.
    If you are getting the voice and everything turned on as before, then I am at a loss for words.

  • I hav som problem with my appstore n ibook dey just dont load i thought i need 2 upi date but now in mavericks updates r connected with appstore it opens up but it doesnt load sam with my ibook app and ye my date and time is fine any solutions?

    i have some problem with my appstore and ibook they just dont load thought i need to update but now in mavericks updates are now connected with appstore so i cant do that it opens up but doesnt load just blank same with ibook store it says cannot connect and yea my date and time is fine any solutions?

    Hi, James.
    Yes, the iBook should run even with no battery installed.
    These are the four most common possibilities when the battery will not charge:
    (1) there is something wrong with your battery
    (2) there is something wrong with your power adapter
    (3) there is something wrong with your power input board (the part that contains the port where you plug in the adapter)
    (4) there is something wrong with your logic board
    Since you have eliminated all the possibilities except (4), it is likely that your logic board is having problems. The PMU (Power Management Unit) is part of the logic board, and it may be going out (hence, temporarily working again when you reset it). Since the iBook is not running reliably without the battery in place (as it should), replacing the battery most likely would be futile.
    When a computer gets to be five years old, it seems a bit short-sighted to pay very much for repairs, just to have something else go wrong sooner rather than later. Have you had a look at the hugely improved specs on the new MacBooks? Is it time for a new portable to avoid embarrassment during your presentations? It sounds like that could be your best option.
