Using Crystal Reports XI with Visual studio 2008 C#

Hi,
I am trying to add some reports which have been created to a C# web application using the Crystal Reports web viewer in Visual Studio 2008. The reports use SQL authentication instead of integrated authentication.
Everytime the page with the report viewer is loaded, im prompted for my logon details. I dont want the end users to be doing this. How do i integrate the logon details into my application so that it doesnt keep prompting using C#?? Also i have parameters which produce a drop down box of available values...this does not work within the web application but does in Crystal Reports.
Any help would be good with examples in C# please. Ideally i would like to hold the connection info in the web.config however i dont know if this is possible.
Thanks
Vish

Hi Vishal,
Here's a link to the platforms for SP5:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/907e6412-a7ac-2b10-23a8-f837fcc78a37
If the link doesn't work then go to this one: Articles
And select the the CR version and look for the specific patch level. If you don't have patches installed I would suggest downloading and installing to get up to SP5.
It does not indicate .NET 2008 so it's not been tested, it may work but if you run into any issues we don't have an escalation path to get it fixed.
Thank you
Don

Crystal Reports Bundeled With Visual Studio 2008

We are currently using the version of Crystal Reports that comes with Visual Studio 2008. Many reports have 5-10 sub reports.
We are running a ASP.NET application and this application passes to the reports a XSD File as the data source. It can take up to 5 minutes sometimes for a report to process.
A couple of questions.
1. Is there a concurrent user limit (I have read 3 or 5)
2. Do the reports get queued up if more than 3 users are running a report?
3. If we have sub reports does each report count as a "user" for example if we have one user on the machine and they run the report that has 10 sub reports, would that be hitting a user limit?
3. Would upgrading to the 2008 version help us at all?
Any other recommendations?
Thank in advance!

1. Is there a concurrent user limit (I have read 3 or 5)
concurrent user limit is 3
2. Do the reports get queued up if more than 3 users are running a report?
+ Yes. If you go to the Event viewer, you should be bale to see messages along the lines of; license not found, waiting x seconds+
3. If we have sub reports does each report count as a "user" for example if we have one user on the machine and they run the report that has 10 sub reports, would that be hitting a user limit?
+ There are two distinct counts. Users, and print jobs. The print engine, can process 3 concurrent users. A print job, consists not only of the report, but also it's subreports. A page through is a print job. A search through the report is a print job. Print job limit is set in the registry and by default it is set to 70. The upshot of this is; if you have one report and one subreport in the detail section and the detail section has 100 records, you will run 1001 print jobs.
4. Would upgrading to the 2008 version help us at all?
Probably not. The same structure exists in CR 2008. Now, you say that you pass an XSD file to the report. Are you actually passing and XSD or a Dataset?_
Finally, remember that if you have 10 subreport in a report, you are running 11 print jobs right there. If one or more of those subreports are in the detail section, the number of print jobs increases accordingly.
For more information see the article [Crystal Reports Maximum Report Processing Jobs Limit v2.doc|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f053713e-3e3d-2c10-2a81-f79259e54023]

Deploying Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008

I have Windows Forms project using Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008
I can't find the merge module to include in the setup project like I used to do in Visual Studio .NET 2003
Everyone seems to say that they don't exist for that version of Crystal Reports
After searching for a long time I found something about a package located at
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\CrystalReports10_5\CRRedist2008_x86.msi
Tried it and it seems to work.
Do I have to install this to the client computer ? Is that the only way having a "Crystal Reports Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008" in the program list of the client computer ?

Hi Victor,
We can download all the runtimes from the following link:
[https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm]
Try to search Business Objects Note regarding this from [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessobjects-notes]

Deploying crystal reports basic for visual studio 2008 for VB6

My application has a module in .net and other in vb6.
I have a problem on deploying crystal reports in client machines, for module in vb6.
The vb6 application uses crystal viewer control obtained from crystal reports basic for visual studio 2008.
What type of deployment should I use?
Currently, I have a setup with prerequisite "crystal reports basic for visual studio 2008".
But I think it misses the dlls crviewer.dll and craxddrt.dll, so I put them in setup and with the register COM options, and it works, but it's not working very well.
When I open a form that uses crystal viewer, the setup (I have created) is lunched and says that have to restart machine. Then it opens the report, but the next time I use the application it does the same thing.

Ok, thank's for the posts, they help so much.
So I'm going to discard vb6 and move to .NET, but... there is a problem:
Many reports have parameters that are asked before showing the report.
The Crystal Viewer that is used in VB6 version isn't the same used in .NET.
The viewer of VB6 asks the parameters in the way we want, however the .NET crystal viewer ask's the parameters in way that we don't like, because we have to do next -> next -> next...
The links above show the diferences:
VB6 -> http://picasaweb.google.com.br/paulo.gonc/CrystalReports#5249249283702618322
.NET -> http://picasaweb.google.com.br/paulo.gonc/CrystalReports#5249246459437178242
There is a way to configure Crystal Viewer, so that parameters asking form will work like the vb6 away?

An error in Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008

Greetings from Peru,
We have a problem with one of the Crystal Reports products weu2019d like you to help us with. We work with Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008.
The error weu2019ve detected is in one of our systemu2019s reports; this report shows data inside frames. When the content to show is larger (in height) than the space left in the page, the container object of the report makes a line break keeping the title and the frame empty at the end of that page, but the information is shown in the next page. What we need is that not empty frame is displayed.
Weu2019ve tried to solve this problem by adjusting the report in different ways (by programming coding), but unfortunately this problem is related to how much data is displayed, because if this data fit in the space left in the page, the line break would not occurs and the data is shown at the end of the same page.
We hope you can help us with this issue. I look forward to your comments.

All I can think of is trying CR 2008 (v.12.x). You can obtain an eval copy from here:

Keycode missing in Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008

I just upgraded from Visual Studio 2005 Professional to Visual Studio 2008 Professional (with SP1 installed also). Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 is listed as installed under the VS Help dialog, but no key code is shown. And when I attempt to open a Crystal Report, I get a dialog saying 'Please wait while Windows configures Crystal Reports Basic', which eventually terminates with an 'Invalid Keycode' message.
I've tried repairing the Visual Studio install, and even uninstalling and reinstalling the whole thing. To no avail.
Other facts: My VS 2005 version still works with its version of Crystal Reports. I am running Vista Professional. Looking in the registry, under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | VSNET | Keycodes | CR9 NET, I see a Type REG_SZ with a data value in the form xxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [6 chars-7 chars-26 chars].
Help! How do I get Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 to work?

Hi Elaine,
Thanks for your response. I do have versions of Visual Studio 2003 and Visual Studio 2005 on my machine, and the earlier versions of Crystal Reports worked with these versions. In addition to the registry key I cited earlier (which I now understand is a VS 2003 version), there is an entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | 10.2 | Crystal Reports | KeyCodes | CR Ent. I see that you are correct, and this corresponds to my VS 2005 installation (which still works). However, there is NO entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | 10.5 (the CR Basic for Visual Studio 2008 path you indicated). There is an entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Business Objects | 10.5 | Crystal Reports, but it has only keys for ChartSupportPath, CommonFiles, DisablecheckForUpdates, and Path.
The Windows\assembly folder has 25 files that are CrystalDecisions.xxx, version 10.5.3700.0. This is consistent with my seeing 'Crystal Reports' listed as installed in VS 2008 Help. But no KeyCode!
I tried a complete uninstall and reinstall of VS 2008, without luck. I can't clean my system of earlier verions of Crystal Reports, because I am still supporting a body of work that I did under VS 2005, and I can't convert all this stuff to 2008 -- at least until I have a fully working VS 2008 suite. After this experience, I fear that if I were to uninstall an earlier version, i might never get it back!
I've spend quite a few hours on this with no luck, so any help would be enormously appreciated.

Crystal Report 10 in Visual Studio 2008

Hello,
Is there a formal process to make Visual Studio 2008 work with Crystal Report version 10? Are there specific files that need to be installed? Any problems to watch for. I currently tried to port Visual Studio 2003 solution that had working Crystal Reports 10 code and I have received some errors relating to ReportDocument (but there could be other). Anyway, maybe there are some basics I am missing.
Thanks.

When I double click on the report (.rpt) file, I am getting Microsoft Windows dialog with the following message:
      Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 has stopped working.
      Windows can try to restart the program.
      --> Restart the program
     --> Debug the Program
When I click Debug the Program, I see following:
   Unhandled exception at 0x18205950 in devenv.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation.
   Top 3 Call Stack lines at this point are:
   18205950()
   CRDesigner.dll!3e043d7a()
   [Frames below may be incorrect and/or missing, no symbols loaded for CRDesigner.dll]
   When I click Break in debug window I see:
   No symbols are loaded for any call stack frame. The source code cannot be displayed."
   Windows has triggered a breakpoint in devenv.exe.
   This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in devenv.exe or any of the DLLs it has loaded.
I do not see Crystal Reports 10.xx under reference list. How do I go back to the version of reports originally created in? If I am not able to work the Crystal Reports 2008, I want to go back to 10.xx and drop the idea of considering upgrade to Crystal Reports 2008.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Crystal Reports 10 and Visual Studio 2008

Hi All
I've got an application that I recieved from my cleint. This is running Visual Studio 2008 and Crystal Reports 10 backend being Oracle 10.2
However, when I try to run the applincation and open any report it pops up an error "crdb_oracle.dll" not found.
I have searched this on the internet and found that there were many suggestions there. I've tried all the suggestions like reinstalling the Oracle client, Re Installing Crystal etc.,
But the error remained as is.
When i try to do a regsvr32 on this dll it fails. Am really not sure why this is happening
Any help from any one out there is highly appreciated.
Pavan
UPDATE:
I've verified the versions though. They are workign fine at the customer place.
Here is what they have done.They have got Oracle, VS 2008 and Crystal Reports 10. They got the reports embedded into .NET environment and are able to view the reports.
But when we try to execute the same code, it pops up the error, "Crdb_oracle.dll" could not be loaded.
Wanted some support on this.
Additionally, could you suggest on what needs to be done? Do we need to upgrade crystsal to crystal 2008? Will this work without any errors on the execution side (I'm sure that the customer of mine will not be happy or willing to upgrade but atleast if I get a confiramtion from you I can atleast quote this to the customer) and without any extra redesiging of the reports or any other work on the reports
Pavan Kumar
Edited by: pavan kumar on Jul 30, 2008 4:01 PM

Hi, Pavan;
Likely the problem is that the report was created with a different version of Crystal Reports than the one that ships with VS.NET 2008 (Which is Crystal Reports Basic for VS.NET 2008 - version 10.5). If the report was created with a full version of Crystal Reports, then it would have access to our native Oracle driver, the dll that is giving you the issue.
The full version of Crystal Reports would install that dll, but the .NET version would not. In order to distribute that DLL, yes, the client would need to develop with the full version of Crystal Reports, in this case Crystal Reports 2008.
Regards,
Jonathan

Crystal viewer is empty (Crystal Report Server with Visual Studio)

Hello everyone,
I've some issues to display a basic report from a Crystal Server 2013 and Visual Studio 2010
Below, the code:
WebForm1.aspx.cs
CrystalReport's DLL are in revision 14.0.3500
using CrystalDecisions.Enterprise;
using CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Viewing;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ClientDoc;

string password = "password";
string server = "server-name";
string auth_type = "secEnterprise";
EnterpriseSession enterpriseSession = sessionMgr.Logon(
 username, password, server, auth_type);
EnterpriseService enterpriseService = enterpriseSession.GetService("InfoStore");
InfoStore infoStore = new InfoStore(enterpriseService);
enterpriseService = enterpriseSession.GetService("RASReportFactory");
Object psrfObject = enterpriseService.Interface;
ReportAppFactory psReportFactory = (ReportAppFactory)psrfObject;
string queryString = "Select * From CI_INFOOBJECTS "
 + "Where SI_PROGID='CrystalEnterprise.Report' "

CrystalDecisions.Web
Actually, I have no error and no exception but the 'CrystalReportViewer' is always empty.
In the C# file, ReportClientDocument client seems OK with the ID and the name of the report.
Thanks for your feedback

Hi Marie
As you are using RAS I'd like you to have a look at a sample application called "NET-CS2003 RAS-Managed BE115 Add Tool-Tip" available for download from here:
Look at the code as used in the viewer.espx.cs page and pattern your code on that.

Using Data Services WSDL with Visual Studio 2008

I am attempting to use the Data Services XI 3.1 WSDL (I think this Data Integrator v 12.1) in Visual Studio 2008 and I am having some difficulty.
I am getting the wsdl from the following location: http://devserver:28080/DataServices/servlet/webservices?ver2.0&wsdlxml
When I attempt to add the web reference to a project all look fine, I see a display of all the methods and their parameter description, etc. but when the add is complete it appears to be unusable. Attempting to instanciate the web service and call the methods results in unreconizable data types. The web service does not show up in Intellisense as a reconizable class, etc.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

try adding a "Service Reference..."
In the add Service Reference panel, click Advanced and then select Add Web Reference. Enter the url to the WSDL and see if this works.
If this continues to fail, try replacing 2.0 with 1.1 on your URL
ie: /webservices?ver1.1&wsdlxml
if that still fails, past the URL in a browser and see if there are any error messages in the <documentation> tags.
if you are still having issues, try posting to:

Crystal Reports Viewer Control - Visual Studio 2008 WEB Application

My question is this: Has ANYONE on this planet been able to get the ASP .NET CR Viewer control to actually work?
Why does this editor NOT recognize End-of-line or CR characters or any whitespace??
I have developed a Crystal Reports "Viewer" web application in VS2008 using C#.
It's a simple app, in that it's a single page with a treeview control (containing the grouped names of the reports to which the user has access) and the CR Viewer control.
The report files live on a network share, and permissions to them is controlled via a SQL Server database, which, for each report, stores the UserID and Logion for the oracle database, as well as any required parameter values.
The reports themselves are all hititng an Oracle 10g database.
I managed to do this in a Windows desktop applcation using Visual Studio 2005 and VB .net, but now, upon trying to make this a web application in VS2008, I have completely failed. The application works when run locally, but when deployed to the web server, I experience database login prompts when I should not, (the dreaded "Report requires further information" message) even thought the setdatabaselogin has already been set. I have tried saving the reportdocument in viewstate and re-assigning the viewer Datasource property to it, that also fails. However, it only does it on some reports, and not others. (admittedly, the reports may have been created using different CR versions)
The viewer also displays data it should not be displaying when I attempt to scroll, when I do manage to get a report to run.
I am setting parameters dynamically at run time, whose values are stored in the SQL database.
Code Sample:
protected void ShowReport(int ReportID)
 SQLDataPortal2005.Common sql = new SQLDataPortal2005.Common();
 Hashtable outParms = new Hashtable();
 string sAccess;
 IDataReader dr;
 CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rptDocument = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
 System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal p = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal as System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal;
 sAccess = p.Identity.Name;
 int j = 0;
 int i = -1;
 if (!IsAdmin())
 sql.ExecNonQuery("CrystalReports", outParms, "proc_CRM_Check_Permissions", sAccess, Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
 if (outParms["@Allow"].ToString() != "True")
 Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx"); // redirect to error page
 string sPath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["WareHouse"].ToString();
 sPath = sPath + TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text.Trim() + ".rpt";
 rptDocument.Load(sPath);
 dr = sql.GetDataReader("CrystalReports", "proc_CRM_Get_Report", Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
 while (dr.Read() == true)
 j += 1;
 if (j < 2)
 rptDocument.SetDatabaseLogon(dr["DB_Login"].ToString(), dr["DB_Pwd"].ToString(), "PLAW", "LAWDB", true);
 pList = dr["ParmList"].ToString().Split(',');
 dr.Close();
 dr.Dispose();
 if (pList.Length > 0 && pList[0].ToString().Trim() != "")
 foreach (CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterField x in rptDocument.ParameterFields)
 i++;
 switch (x.ParameterValueType)
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.BooleanParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToBoolean(pList));
 break;
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.CurrencyParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDouble(pList));
 break;
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.DateParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList));
 break;
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.DateTimeParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList));
 break;
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.NumberParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToInt32(pList));
 break;
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.StringParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToString(pList));
 break;
 case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.TimeParameter:
 rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList));
 break;
 Session["CReport"] = rptDocument;
 CRV1.ReportSource = rptDocument;
 CRV1.DisplayGroupTree = false;
 CRV1.HasRefreshButton = true;
 CRV1.ShowFirstPage();
Is there a better/different way of accomplishing this very simply process? All I need this application to do is to view a report, while setting it's parmeters (if required) dynamically at run time. I don't EVER want the user to be prompted for DB LOGIN INFO.

To answer you question; Yes, I suspect that most of the users in this community have managed to successfully create web apps. And this is the tiniest of sampling of the developers out there...
A few suggestions;
1) Keep the posts to under 1200 characters. Otherwise, the formatting is lost which makes it difficult to read.
2) Try out a few sample apps from here:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
Suggest; csharp_web_simplelogonengine.zip, csharp_web_simplelogonviewer.zip and csharp_web_subreport_logon.zip.
3) Start simple; one table, one field, no subreports. Hard code the database logon parameters. Convince your self that this does work. Increase the complexity - add fields, tables, subreports. Do not mix connection methods (e.g.; if ODBC for main, than ODBC for sub is a good idea, though not a requirement).
4) See the article [Troubleshooting Guide to Database Connectivity Issues with Crystal Reports in Visual Studio .NET Applications|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b0225775-88c4-2c10-bd80-8298769293de].
5) See [this|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d05b3bb7-0f28-2c10-4ea3-84dbdc4e414e?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true] article.

Crystal Reports 10 with Visual Studio 2010

We have Crystal Reports 10, which I have installed. The viewer provided with the install runs fine. We have an application that has an embedded viewer.
Then I'm just trying to get the simple C# sample code to run in VS2010, which is just a form with the viewer component reading an existing .rpt file. But I get a "Load report failed" error with no other details. Seems like it really should be simple. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
I'm running Win7 64, but compiling in x86 mode.

Well, you have two options;
1) Go with the version of CR that bundles with .NET2005 (CR 10.2)
2) Go with CRVS2010 and VS2010
CR10.0 is not supported in either .NET2005 or .NET2010. See [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/WhichCrystalReportsassemblyversionsaresupportedinwhichversionsofVisualStudio+.NET] wiki for more info.
There are no work-arounds, no nothing that I can help with or recommend.

Crystal Report X1 compatibility with Visual Studio 2008

We are migrating an application running on .NET 1.0 to .NET 3.5. Previously Crystal report X1 was working fine with .NET 1.0 however now when it has been migrated to .NET 3.5, we are able to generate crystal report but print and export functionality is not working.
Please confirm if Crystal report X1 is compatible with Visual studio 2008/.NET 3.5? We even updated Release 2 SP4 patch but that didn't solve the problem.
If crystal report X1 is not compatible with Visual studio 2008, which version is compatible so that we can buy the license for the same?
