The official support comes with SPS20 for IE8 on Windows XP Professional and with SPS21 on Windows 7. You will find information within the PAM - http://service.sap.com/pam

How is the best way to install the latest version of Crystal Reports 2008
I have been downloading for hours all the service packs, hot fixes, fix packs and chasing my tail for way too long on this.
I keep getting errors about a file being out of sequence.... I assume there is a very loooooong list of fixpacks that need to be applied!!! This is such a nightmare.
Is there a simple way to just install the latest version of 2008 Crystal Reports?
If I have to follow a long sequence of updates, is it written down anywhere?
The reason for this in the firstplace is because I moved to Visual Studio 2010 with .Net 4.0 framework and now none of my crystal reports work.
I am using the full version of Crystal Reports 2008 installation, not the one built into Visual Studio
HELP!!!!!!When I try installing SP2 it starts the update and just locks up... no errors... just sits there. I let it sit for about an hour.
Is it compatible with Windows 7 ?
When I tried installing a fixpack, I kept getting errors that a file was out of sequence. I will try uninstalling all of Crystal and just reinstall in this order:
1. Crystal Reports 2008 from CD
2. Install Crystal Reports 2008 SP2
3. Install FixPack 2.6
This is what I tried the first time and got all the errors, but I will try it again... is this correct?
(I don't need to install SP0 or SP1 or any other Fixpacks.... Correct?) -
Which is the lowest version of Crystal reports that shall work on BW 7.3?
Hi,
Can you tell me which is the lowest version of crystal reports that will work with BW 7.3?
If given any reference document also it will be useful.
Regards,
VigneshJust adding to Vitaly's point that when you load CR 2008 Sp4, you also need to upgrade SAP IK to the same patch level i.e. SP4
You also have to load the respective transports for the service pack that you are loading.

How to enhance the Excel export from Crystal Reports
Hello,
I am new in Crystal Reports and I wonder if it is possible to enhance the Excel export from Crystal Reports with post-processing that would be applied to the Excel exported file.
By example, is it possible to freeze the window panes, so rows and columns are frozen in place on the screen?
Is there any possibility to obtain the file exported to excel to work with.
Or maybe there is some ways to parametrize the Excel export from Crystal Reports?
Any suggestions are welcomed.If you are using Crystal Reports 2008 you can use the Report Application SDK that is now available.
It has a object called PrintOutputController that has an export method that allows you to get access to the exported file before you send it to the user.
Check the Developer library and the samples for details.

Look at original question. When I did the download to the new 6.0 it said everything was fine. Then when I tried to use the firefox again it said an older version needed to shut down my computer so that it could upgrade the old version. It wont let me do anything and all it says is shut down computer so old version can upgrade. It wont let me open the program or remove it or anything. PLease help me with this. I really like Firefox but this has been going on for 5 months now and I still dont get answers from you. How do I fix this???

After upgrading to Yosemite I have lost iPhoto. It has a cross through it in Finder, but I clicked on it and I was directed to download the latest version from the App store, but it is not available in the Australian store. Can anyone please help? I am not an advanced user and I would like my photos back, having had no idea I would lose iPhoto in the upgrade!
Thanks petermac87...but for some reason, the only purchases showing are OS. So assuming iPhoto is in Mountain Lion, I was hoping to look under Hidden Items there as you suggested, but there is no option for that. Only option is to download Mountain Lion again, not iPhoto specifically. Any ideas welcome!

Upgrade the Essbase Client from Version 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2 on LINUX 64 BI
Hi All,
Can any one please let me know the process to upgrade the Essbase Client from Version 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2 on LINUX 64 BIT Server. Is it possible to upgrade the essbase client alone or do we need to upgrade the Essbase Server as a whole? Also, does Essbase upgrade is possible from 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2 on LINUX ?
If Essbase client upgrade is not possible, can you please tell the list of Files that need to be download to Install Essbase server V 11.1.2.2 on LINUX.
Thanks
ReddyHave a read of the following doc in Oracle Support - "How to Install the Essbase Client Tools MaxL and ESSCMD on a Planning Server Installed on Unix Server [ID 1477705.1]"
I know the title of the doc is not exactly the same as the question but it gives you an idea of the process based on 11.1.2.2, the easiest solution is probably to apply the maintenance release to upgrade from 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2

The screen on my iPhone turned into an xray like display. With the assistance from Apple Support, I Upgraded the software version. But still did not resolved the issue.
Probably a setting. Look at the manual.

I just upgrade the OS X from 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. After upgrade, the help file is not available. How can I get it back?
Look above at my original post:
Downgrade Mavericks to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then
the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART
info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on
the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups made while on Snow Leopard, then you may do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion/Mountain Lion files. -

MadhuApplication partitiion is what you will be upgrading from 3.1.(10 to 4.0(8).
MP - maintenance partition is supposed to be 2.1.2 or above which is the same requirement for 3.1.x so, you will be good there.
Pls. check the compatibility with the swtich code in this 4.0.8 Release Note link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/fwsm/fwsm40/release/notes/fwsmrn40.html
Pls. check the chassis system requirement in the above link.
commands you will need are:
copy tftp flash:image
copy tftp flash:asdm
falsh:image for OS and flash:asdm if you will be upgrading the asdm as well.

How to print the report directly without previewing (report viewer) using c# windows application
Hi,
Currently, we are using crystal report to all of our reporting applications, but since I/users have encountered some issues about CR's speed to load only a simple report, maybe it is now time for us to adopt a new reporting environment in which I think SSRS
can fill this problem.
To start with, I have here a sample code, that uses the crystal report to print the report directly without previewing:
csCashInvoiceCal csCashCal; --Crystal report name .rpt
dsCsReceipt dsCs; --created dataset
DataTable u;
DataRow s;
private System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument printDocument1;
private System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog printDialog1;
ParameterValues paramValue;
ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue;
ParameterFieldDefinition fieldDefinition;
private void btnPrint_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt2();
print2();
csCashCal.Close();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
private void loadReceipt2()
dsCs = new dsCsReceipt(); --created dataset
u = dsCs.Tables.Add("DtCsReceipt");
u.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
s = u.NewRow(); double.TryParse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Discount2.Name].Value.ToString(), out discount);
s["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
s["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
s["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
s["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
s["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
s["Discount"] = "";
s["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
u.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
csCashCal = new csCashInvoiceCal();
csCashCal.SetDataSource(dsCs.Tables[1]);
//csCashCal.Refresh();
loadParameter2();
private void loadParameter2()
ParameterFieldDefinitions paramFieldDefinitions;
paramValue = new ParameterValues();
discreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
paramFieldDefinitions = csCashCal.DataDefinition.ParameterFields;
discreteValue.Value = date;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["Date"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtcsno.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["InvoiceNo"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtNameTo.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerName"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtAdd.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerAddress"];
commonParam();
------other parameters----
private void commonParam()
paramValue.Clear();
paramValue.Add(discreteValue);
fieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(paramValue);
private void print2()
using (printDocument1 = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument())
using (this.printDialog1 = new PrintDialog())
//this.printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
this.printDialog1.Document = this.printDocument1;
DialogResult dr = this.printDialog1.ShowDialog();
if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
int nCopy = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.Copies;
int sPage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;
int ePage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;
string PrinterName = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;
try
csCashCal.PrintOptions.PrinterName = PrinterName;
csCashCal.PrintToPrinter(nCopy, false, sPage, ePage);
printcount++;
//saveCountPrint();
catch (Exception err)
MessageBox.Show(err.ToString());
This is only a simple sales receipt application that uses dgv and textboxes to push its data to dataset to the crystal report, a simple one but there are instances that it is very slow.
But I'm having trouble implementing this using SSRS, since I'm only new to this one, wherein I created the report using report wizard, with two button options inside the form for print preview or direct print selection. Actually, it is very easy to implement
with print preview because it uses reportviewer. My problem is that how can I print the report directly without using a reportviewer?
So here is my code so far which I don't know what's next:
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt3();
//print3();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
ReportParameter[] parameter = new ReportParameter[11];
private void loadParameter3()
parameter[0] = new ReportParameter("InvoiceNo", txtcsno.Text);
parameter[1] = new ReportParameter("Date", date);
parameter[2] = new ReportParameter("CustomerTin", txtTin.Text);
parameter[3] = new ReportParameter("CustomerName", txtNameTo.Text);
parameter[4] = new ReportParameter("CustomerAddress", txtAdd.Text);
parameter[5] = new ReportParameter("Agent", agent);
parameter[6] = new ReportParameter("Discount", "Discount: ");
parameter[7] = new ReportParameter("TotalDiscount", lblDiscount.Text + "%");
parameter[8] = new ReportParameter("TotalSales", rdtotal);
parameter[9] = new ReportParameter("Tax", rdtax);
parameter[10] = new ReportParameter("TotalAmount", rdnet);
private void loadReceipt3()
DataSet dsrs = new DataSet();
DataTable dtrs = new DataTable();
DataRow drs;
dtrs.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
drs = dtrs.NewRow();
drs["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
drs["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
drs["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
drs["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
drs["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
drs["Discount"] = "";
drs["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
dtrs.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
int addtlRow = 7;
if (addtlRow > (count - 1))
addtlRow = addtlRow - (count - 1);
for (int i = 0; i < addtlRow; i++)
dtrs.Rows.Add();
loadParameter3();
LocalReport localreport = new LocalReport();
localreport.SetParameters(parameter);
localreport.DataSources.Clear();
localreport.DataSources.Add(new ReportDataSource("dsSalesReceiptSsrs", dtrs));
localreport.Refresh();
//what's next....
So what's next after local..refresh()? Actually, I have googled a lot but I didn't found the exact solution that I'm looking for which confuses me a lot.
Anyway I'm using VS 2010 with sql server 2012 express.
You're help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
HardzAfter some further studies with ReportViewer controls and with the use of this tutorial @ : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252091.aspx, which helps me a lot on how to print a report without using a report viewer, I found out what is missing
with my code above and helps solve my question.
Here's the continuation of the code above:

if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
if (!printDoc.PrinterSettings.IsValid)
throw new Exception("Error: cannot find the default printer.");
else
printDoc.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(PrintPage);
m_currentPageIndex = 0;
printDoc.Print();
Dispose();
public void Dispose()
if (m_streams != null)
foreach (Stream stream in m_streams)
stream.Close();
m_streams = null;
private Stream CreateStream(string name, string fileNameExtension, Encoding encoding, string mimeType, bool willSeek)
Stream stream = new FileStream(name + "." + fileNameExtension,
FileMode.Create);
m_streams.Add(stream);
return stream;
private void PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs ev)
Metafile pageImage = new
Metafile(m_streams[m_currentPageIndex]);
// Adjust rectangular area with printer margins.
Rectangle adjustedRect = new Rectangle(
ev.PageBounds.Left - (int)ev.PageSettings.HardMarginX,
ev.PageBounds.Top - (int)ev.PageSettings.HardMarginY,
ev.PageBounds.Width,
ev.PageBounds.Height);
// Draw a white background for the report
ev.Graphics.FillRectangle(Brushes.White, adjustedRect);
// Draw the report content
ev.Graphics.DrawImage(pageImage, adjustedRect);
// Prepare for the next page. Make sure we haven't hit the end.
m_currentPageIndex++;
ev.HasMorePages = (m_currentPageIndex < m_streams.Count);
