Use another edition Crystal Report for VS2008

I only use Crystal Report in VS2008 before.
Our company has CR 11 enterprise edition.
What benefit can get if I use CR 11?
Do I need to install something in order to use CR 11 in VS2008?

CR11 is not supported or tested with VS 2008.
If you want to use VS 2008 you will need to use Crystal Reports 2008.

    Hi rebmaamberrebmaamber,
    Within Visual Studio 2008, Crystal Reports is known as "Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008" and is included in the Professional Edition and higher. Please check if your VS2008 is the Professional Edition or higher.
    Technical Support
    Microsoft does not provide support for the Crystal Reports products that are included in Visual Studio because Crystal Reports are SAP products. Support is only available from the SAP-provided free forum.

    is this problem solved by upgrading Crystal Report version to CR12 ?

    Hi Leonardus
    Please define "crash". What actually happens?
    Did this ever work? E.g.; this started to happen recently?
    Is this happening on your development system or QA or production?
    See if enabling the option "Verify on 1st Refresh" will help.
    Make sure you are using SP 1: Crystal Reports for VS 2005 and  VS 2008 Updates & Runtime Downloads
    Ensure that the dataset is less that a couple thousand rows. Anything more than that will cause issues...

  • Report asks for database login in deployed version using crystal runtime for vs2008

    I am developing an application with VS2008 .Net with an Interface to use external Crystal  reports.
    I created a Report using Crystal Reports 2011 "doku.rpt".
    I am using a CrystalReportViewer "crpv" on a form.
    I am using a ReportDocument object (Variable "ReportDocumentM"), to which I load the file "doku.rpt"  and assign the logon Settings of main and subreports (which are the same for all tables).
    Using crpv.ReportSource = ReportDocumentM I assign the reportDocument to the ReportViewer.
    On my develop System everything works fine, the Report is shown in the Viewer.
    I created a Setup for my application and isnatalled it on another System. I also installed the CrystalRuntime for VS2008.
    When I try to Show the Report, a dailog "Database Login" appears and aks for the Connection.
    where the SERVER, USERID and (sometimes the PWD) Input fields are filled with  the correct values, but always the DATABASE field is empty.
    SERVER and DATABASE fields are READONLY.
    Hours and hours I tried differnt things, I also filled the logon info of the ReportViewer himself, nothing helped.
    The code:

    Sorry, I found the solution in another discussion:
    "Crystal ask for DB Connections on new installation"
    Correct Answer by Marc Trudel  on Jan 9, 2014 6:57 PM ' Solved Reports are all saved with SQLNCLI which is Sql Native client 9 (2005) New computers only have SQLNCLI10 which is Sql Native Client 10 (2008) Customer will either install SQL CLient 10 on all old computer and upgrade the reports or install SQL Client 9 on new computers which will avoid upgrading hundred of reports
    In my case the original Report was created on a System with both SQLNativeClient 9 and SQLNativeClient 10 on it. Because I originally used a SQL2000 database as datasource, the SQLNativeClient9 was used. It wasn't a Problem on the System when I dynamically connected to a SQL2008R" database, probably because the NativeClient9 was still there and could be used. On the other Computer only the NativeClient10 was existing and this caused the Problems.
    But I think that this is a bug in Crystal: I think ist normal, that from time to time there are changes in DataBase Connections and Clients, so the reports should be able to work also with new Clients. At least there  should be a message to inform about the Problem.

  • Problems with concurrency tests using Crystal Reports for VS 2005

    Post Author: condeagustin
    CA Forum: General Feedback
    Hi
    My name is Agustin and Im using Crystal Reports for VS 2005
    and NET 2.0 to generate pdf files. This is the scenario:
    I created a COM+ object in c# and everytime the
    COM+ creates an instance of this object, the following flow is executed:
    it reads an xml file from a database, then it feeds the report with this
    xml file, afterwards it generates a pdf file and finally this pdf file is
    inserted into the database. Both fields (xml and pdf fields) are varbinary in the
    same table in sql server 2005. All the flow from reading the xml to inserting
    the pdf into the database is executed in memory, it never goes to the hard
    disk. In other words both the xml and the pdf file are stored in memory (the
    RAM). That is the only function of that COM+ object and I already have it in a
    production server and it works GREAT!!
    The PROBLEM is the concurrency tests. I made the following tests
    in the same production server:
    1. First I went to the registry and I set the PrintJobLimit to
    100 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARECrystal Decisions10.2Report Application
    ServerServer
    2. I shut down the object in the COM+ and I executed 100
    threads all at the same time. Each thread created one instance of the object in
    the COM+ and the 100 pdfs were generated SUCCESFULLY in 5 minutes!!
    3. Then I executed again 100 threads (WITHOUT shutting down the
    object in the com+). 10 pdfs were generated succesfully but the rest were
    never generated and there was no exception because my object was NEVER
    INSTANTIADED in the COM+, I mean, the 90 instances were never created in the
    COM+, so my object was never executed, THAT IS MY PROBLEM!! Do I have to
    modify something in the registry files of crystal reports to fix this? What can
    I do? I have revised the code in that object a LOT OF TIMES and believe me,
    everything is being closed and disposed at the end (the memory streams, the
    ReportClass objects, the connection to the database, even the dataset used to
    store the data of the xml file!
    So to sum up the problem is not with the execution of my object
    (cause once is created the object works great and the pdf is generated
    perfectly!), the problem is with the com+ TRYING to create another instance
    of my object given that test scenario. Help me please, What do you
    suggest?
    The production server has this specifications:
    Operative System: Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 2
    Processor: Dual Core AMD Opteron 2212 2.00GHz
    RAM: 820MB
    Hard drive: It is partitioned in 2 drives --> C
    drive has 20GB and D has 60GB
    Note: Each generated pdf has only one page and if you bring it
    to disk its maximum size is 56KB
    I hope your answer and thank you

    Venkat,
    Thanks for your response. Please note, however, the transaction RAD1 does not exist. Let me provide more details about the current settings of the InfoObject.
    The Characteristic is 'Item' (0CS_ITEM) and upon going to RSA1 >  Modeling > InfoObjects > Item (0CS_ITEM) > Right Click > Display > Business Explorer (tab) > Text Type is set to 'Long Text' and BEx description is set to 'Long description' already.
    When I run/execute the query with this Item characteristic, the results in BEx Analyzer is showing appropriate long text, however, Crystal Report for Enterprise shows short text only

    Hi Amol,
    Are you able to execute your stored procedure from oracle?.
    - If "Yes" then use  the Crystal Report XIR2 Designer to create the report.
    - Import this report in the Crystal Report For Eclipse Workbench.
    - The latest version for Crystal Report For Eclipse is SP1.
    Please let me know the results.
    Thanks,
    Neeraj

  • How to use Crystal Report Server with Crystal Reports for Eclipse

    Hi,
    is it possible to use Crystal Reports for Eclipse with the Crystal Report Server
    like i can do it in Crystal Reports.
    For Example open a Report file directly from the server edit and save there.
    Thanks
    Thomas

    Yes, you can use the CR Server product in your Eclipse project.  However, you will need to use the RAS SDK in your project instead of the CR4E SDK. 
    For more information about the RAS SDK, visit the DevLibrary.

  • Can you use Crystal Reports for Enterprise to connect to BOE4 over the web?

    Hello,
    When I use Crystal Reports for Enterprise in BI Launchpad when I am connected on the LAN network it works.
    If I connect via the internet, it doesn't.
    I wanted to know if Crystal Reports for Enterprise only works if you are connected to Business Enterprise 4.0 on a LAN network and if it's not designed to work remotely, aka via the internet connection, like you can with Webi?
    regards
    Janetta

    Hello,
    We installed BOE4 on the server, it runs perfectly, no issues.
    Install Crystal Reports for Enterprise on a laptop. It's the latest one as I checked to see if there's any later versions or patches.
    I am able to log into the BOE Enterprise system as administrator.
    Namely I have setup the Server connections per the following:
    Server Name:   <IP address>
    The check box for SSL is unchecked.
    Server Port Number:   nnnn
    Server Context:  /dswsbobje
    System display name:   <my server> External Connection
    User Name : Administrator
    It connects successfully.
    I then go and create a report against a Universe that I can see listed on my BOE 4 server.
    It then comes up with this error message:
    "Unable to Logon: There is a problem logging on to SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise.
    Please check your logon credentials and make sure your nework is properly configured before trying again.
    If problems persist please contact your Administrator."
    Architecture: 
    BOE 4 sits on Windows 2008 Server SP2
    Laptops tried it on are Windows Vista and Windows 2003 Std.
    Thanks for looking into this for me.

  • How to create a report with data using the Crystal Reports for Java SDK

    Hi,
    How do I create a report with data that can be displayed via the Crystal Report for Java SDK and the Viewers API?
    I am writing my own report designer, and would like to use the Crystal Runtime Engine to display my report in DHTML, PDF, and Excel formats.  I can create my own report through the following code snippet:
    ReportClientDocument boReportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();
    boReportClientDocument.newDocument();
    However, I cannot find a way to add data elements to the report without specifying an RPT file.  Is this possible?  I seems like it is since the Eclipse Plug In allows you to specify your database parameters when creating an RPT file.
    is there a way to do this through these packages?
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.definition
    Am I forced to create a RPT file for the different table and column structures I have? 
    Thank you in advance for any insights.

    Hi Rameez,
    After working through the example code some more, and doing some more research, I remain unable to populate a report with my own data and view the report in a browser.  I realize this is a long post, but there are multiple errors I am receiving, and these are the seemingly essential ones that I am hitting.
    Modeling the Sample code from Create_Report_From_Scratch.zip to add a database table, using the following code:
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.*"%>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.*"%>
    <%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.document.*"%>

                String db = "qa_start_2012";
                String dsn = "SQL Server";
                String userName = "sa";
                String pwd = "sa";
                // Create the DB connection
                ConnectionInfo oConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();

                // Set new table logon properties
                PropertyBag oPropertyBag2 = new PropertyBag();
                oPropertyBag2.put("DSN", dsn);

                out.println(RsdkEx);  
        catch (Exception ex) {
              out.println(ex);  
    %>
    Throws the exception
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: java.lang.NullPointerException---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
    There was other sample code on SDN which suggested the following - adding the table after calling table.setDataFields() as in:
              String tableName = "Building";
                String fieldname = "Building_Name";
                Table oTable = new Table();
                oTable.setName(tableName);
                oTable.setAlias(tableName);
                oTable.setQualifiedName(tableName);
                oTable.setDescription(tableName) ;
                Fields fields = new Fields();
                DBField field = new DBField();
                field.setDescription(fieldname);
                field.setHeadingText(fieldname);
                field.setName(fieldname);
                field.setType(FieldValueType.stringField);
                field.setLength(40);
                fields.add(field);
                oTable.setDataFields(fields);
                oTable.setConnectionInfo(oConnectionInfo);
                rcd.getDatabaseController().addTable(oTable, null);
    This code succeeds, but it is not clear how to add that database field to a section.  If I attempt to call the following:
    FieldObject oFieldObject = new FieldObject();
                oFieldObject.setDataSourceName(field.getFormulaForm());
                oFieldObject.setFieldValueType(field.getType());
                // Now add it to the section
                oFieldObject.setLeft(3120);
                oFieldObject.setTop(120);
                oFieldObject.setWidth(1911);
                oFieldObject.setHeight(226);
                rcd.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(oFieldObject, rcd.getReportDefController().getReportDefinition().getDetailArea().getSections().getSection(0), -1);
    Then I get an error (which is not unexpected)
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportDefControllerException: The field was not found.---- Error code:-2147213283 Error code name:invalidFieldObject
    How do I add one of the table.SetDataFields()  to my report to be displayed?
    Are there any other pointers or suggestions you may have?
    Thank you

  • How to use a stored procedure as a datasource in Crystal Report for Eclipse

    Hi All,
    I've written a stored procedure in oracle 10g with few input parameters and one refcursor output parameter. I want to use this stored procedure as a data source for creating a report in "Crystal Report For Eclipse 3.6.0".
    When I tried to add this stored procedure to the report using the connection explorer, I don't see any option to do this. But when I try to add any table, it shows options like "Add to the current report"....
    Can anybody assist me how to use a stored procedure as a data source in "Crystal Report For Eclipse"?
    Which driver should I use to connect to the oracle database? I tried using JDBC Driver for Oracle.
    Thanks in advance.

    Did you solve your problem? How did you do?

  • Crystal Reports for VS2010 using a custom SAP ABAP function module data source

    I recently worked with Crystal Reports 2011 and was able to connect and retrieve data from our R/3 system via an ABAP function module. While researching other features, I found this version that can be installed into Visual Studio 2010. The parameters are not very user friendly in Crystal Reports so I was hoping to create a custom dialog to collect my report parameters.
    Does anyone know if I were to install Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010, would I be able to design a front-end selection screen in a Visual Basic form and then pass the input to through the Crystal Reports connection to my ABAP function module to retrieve the data filtered on the back-end by the selection screen parameters and return the results to be reported in the Crystal Reports output?
    I am using Visual Studio 2010 Professional Visual Basic with the .NET Framework 4.0 on 32-bit Windows 7. I was able to connect to our R/3 system in Crystal Reports 2011, so if I were to install Crystal Reports for VS2010, would there be a similar way of connecting to SAP?
    Any assistance or direction would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Bryan

    Hello Bryan
    I don't know for sure, but I doubt this will work in CRVS2010. Only hope is that the utility available for download in this KBA will point you in the right direction.
