VB6 Crystal Reports 8.5 - RDC Component to Export Reports To Printer

Hi,
We have an application written in VB6 that uses the RDC in Crystal Reports 8.5 to export reports the printer. We are currently making some security changes to lock down several of our servers. Currently our custom print queue for Crystal runs in windows services as administrator. All the printers are installed as administrator. As soon as we change our application to run as a different account (ie. CrystalService) it no longer can find the printers. I was wondering if there is a way for the windows service to recognize the printers installed as administrator without re-installing all printers on all servers as the new user Crystal Service.
Thanks for your help and let me know if I can add anything to clarify the situation.

Hi Chris,
Other than re-installing under the new user account you can search Microsofts web site on how to change printer permissions. There is an article there that explains how to copy the Printer registry keys into the local user account.
Then it should all work for you, this is all a Windows permission issue, not a Crystal Reports Issue.
Thank you
Don

Export report Excel-Data Only works not,'not enough memory for operation'

Hi all,
we are using in our Software CrystalReport Version 11 Service Pack 5. Crystal report is intergated for .NET. We can not uninstall CrystalReport Version 11 Service Pack 5 to install another Version or another Service Pack.
We are haveing problems to export report as Excel 97-2000 Data Only, "not enough memory for operation" message pop up after you try to export report as Excel data Only.
Export Report as PDF is working fine.
This problems are on Windows XP Sp3 and Vista. On Windows 7 we have no problem.
Please, can somebody help me solving this problem, or to finde a workaround for Windows XP. Memory from PC is not the problem.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards

Odisej, unfortunately, processes such as remote sessions are reserved for phone cases only. You can create a phone case here;

Also, just as an FYI, see the blog [What are these 'support' forums good for anyhow?|/people/ludek.uher/blog/2011/04/07/what-are-these-support-forums-good-for-anyhow]
Without phone support, you are left to do most of the foot work your self. On the forums, we can provide suggestions and guidance, but that is about it.
Couple of things to note though. If you do create a phone case, one of the 1st things that you will be asked is to update your app to SP6 - unless you can prove the same issue exists with SP6 (see more bellow).
Something I would recommend you try is to take an XP box, install SP6 on it, then install your app on it. If this works, your options are highly limited. E.g.; SP6...
One other utility that may be worthwhile to use is [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx]. Run that on the XP box. In the logs, look for "Access Denied" error messages. Look for load or other issues with crxf_xls.dll, exportmodeller.dll and crtslv.dll.
From your responses I am still not sure if you actually did run Modules and compared the results. This is much, much easier to do than working with ProcMon and I'd start there. To summarize, my troubleshooting plan (irrespective of the limits imposed on you) would be:
1) Use Modules as this is the easiest thing you can do
2) Try this with SP6 - more work that (1) above, but at least you are on the latest. If this works, banging your head into an SP5 wall will do you no good (like I said, irrespective of what ever limits...)
3) Use ProcMon - not too difficult, but time consuming as you will be looking over 100s, possibly 1000s of lines and not being familiar with details of CR, this will take time.

Exporting reports in 9.3.0

Hi,
I succesfully migrated aplication form 9.3.0 to 11.1.2.1 and now I need to do the same with reports.
I decided to simply export reports from one enviroment and export them in another.
In workspace i select export, chose folder and selected folder I need to export.
Everything worked fine, except that I do not know where the export is stored.
Please help,
Best regards,
Greg

When you export from workspace it should open a popup and let you pick where to save the reports locally, if there are multiple reports it will create a zip file to download.
Cheers

Migrate VB6 Crystal Report 6.0 application to Crystal Report 2013

I have a VB6 application that includes the Crystl32.ocx from Crystal Report 6.0. Can someone suggest migration details to use Crystal Report 2013.

Hi Manish,
The VB6 application was written using RDC COM SDK which was available and supported til CR XI R2.
From CR 2008 RDC COM SDK has been completely deprecated and is no more supported.
There is no upgrade or migration path. With CR 2008 onwards only .NET and JAVA SDKs could be used.
You would have to re-write the code using .NET SDK.
All the resources for .NET SDK and plenti of sample codes are available, just search through forums.
Also, CR 2013 does not have any SDK. You could design the reports with CR 2013 and use
SAP Crystal Reports for Visual Studio (which works with VS 2010, 2012, 2013) to develop your applications.
Here are few helpful articles

Crystal Report XI R2 - RDC supported on Windows 64-bit

Hello!
We are using Crystal Report XI R2 runtime RDC component on Windows 32-bit platform.
Is the RDC supported on Windows 64-bit platform?
Best regards,
A.

Hi Alessandro,
The version of Crystal Reports that comes with MS Visual Studio .NET, which is CR version 10.x, is 64 bit but is quite limited in it's functionality. Only some export types and database drivers are supported. It basically only allows you to view reports, no RCAPI functionalty at all.
I suggest not going that way. RDC is not 64 bit at all, it's old COM engine and will not work in 64 bit mode as I said above. The RDC is not supoorted using .NET also.
Thank again
Don

Crystal Report (9.0 - RDC] on Vista

I think i have not expressed myself appropriatly
(the last thread).
I have problems when i use Crystal Reports 2008,
CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo and CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer on Vista .
But i haven't problem when i use Crystal Report (9.0 - RDC) on Vista.
(Interop.CRAXDDRT / Crystal Reports 9 ActiveX Designer Design and Runtime Library).
¿?It's supported¿?(vista)
What kind of problems can I find, if i use Crystal Reports(9.0-RDC) on Vista?
(now i haven´t)

Dear Amit,
Sorry, but I think I'm still not expressing appropriately. Let me try once again.
OK, I know that CR2008 does not support RDC. Actually we are planning to migrate to CR2008 using the new NET libraries.
However, we have tested CR9.0(RDC) in Vista and we find that it works OK so far. My question is: is CR9.0 (RDC) "officially" working in Vista? Shall we find any compatibility problem for some Vista installation?
What I would like to know is whether our current software, that still uses CR9.0(RDC), shall work fine on any Vista platform or not.
Hope that I had expressed better this time !!

Crystal 10 RDC Save Copy of Report opened by the Viewer

Anyone know the setting in the RDC that will allow me to save a copy of the report that is being opened by the viewer? Years ago I used this for troubleshooting reports where we were dynamically setting the datasource paths. When a report was opened in the Crystal Viewer it would save a copy of Report.RPT to a specified directory after setting the datasource paths and if any path issues occured and the report errored out we could open the copy (Report.RPT file) and see what the datasource paths were changed to when the report was opened and figure out if they were set correctly or not. I can't find the setting I used before.

There are two ways of saving a loaded report;
1) Export to rpt
2) report.saveAs
Both should give you the info you're looking foe.

Differences in SQL between Report Designer and RDC

Post Author: GarethThom
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Using Crystal Reports v10 SP6, we have created a report that can show a retrospective aged analysis of supplier invoices based on a Comparison Date parameter. The data is in a Microsoft Access database. In the Record Selection Criteria we have the following criteria:
{Transactions.TranType} in ["SA", "SO","ST", "SN", "SR"]And {Transactions.InvoiceDate} <= {?ComparisonDate}And ({Transactions.PaymentDate} = CDate(0,0,0) Or {Transactions.PaymentDate} > {?ComparisonDate})
The idea being that we want all Invoices (of a certain type) dated up to and including the Comparison Date parameter and where either the Invoice has not yet been paid or was paid after the Comparison Date, i.e. the outstanding/unpaid Invoices at that point in time.
When run within the Report Designer everything works perfectly. When we view the SQL Query used to bring the data back it says:
WHERE (`Transactions`.`TranType`='SA' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='SN' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='SO' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='SR' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='ST') AND `Transactions`.`InvoiceDate`<#2008-05-07 00:00:00#
The PaymentDate part of the criteria is obviously evaluated within Crystal once the data has been retrieved from the database.
However, when run through the RDC using VB6 SP6 the following SQL Query is used:
WHERE (`Transactions`.`TranType`='SA' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='SN' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='SO' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='SR' OR `Transactions`.`TranType`='ST') AND `Transactions`.`InvoiceDate`<#2008-05-07 00:00:00# AND ((`Transactions`.`PaymentDate`>=#1899-12-30 00:00:00# AND `Transactions`.`PaymentDate`<#1899-12-30 00:00:00#) OR `Transactions`.`PaymentDate`>=#2008-05-07 00:00:00#)
Which returns no records.
The reason we are using CDate(0,0,0) to check for an empty date is that if you have "Convert Database Null Values to Default" ticked it does not seem to handle using IsNull({Transactions.PaymentDate}) in the Record Selection Criteria - no records are returned (in the Report Designer) even though if you copy the SQL Query and run in directly in the database it returns records. As soon as you untick the flag the correct records are returned.
So, is there a fix for this problem or does anyone have any alternate ideas as to how this "null/empty date" scenario could be handled?
Thanks,

Issue while exporting report in PDF using crystal report XI

Hello,
I am facing issue while exporting a report to PDF through crystal report XI. Reports are generating properly in the crystal report browser but when I am exporting the reports in PDF or trying to get print by clicking on print button, reports not generating properly.
Allignment in the exported PDF reports getting changed and reports margin is also changes. Due to this some part of report is chopped and printed on the next page.
I have deployed my application on IBM WebSphere 6.1 server and I am getting following error which might help to identify this issue.

The stack trace is caused by whitespace in your CrystalReportViewer.jsp file. Look up SAP Note 1199025 for the resolution.
It's not related to the PDF formatting issue. There's been changes to the formatting with the most recent version - Crystal Reports for Eclipse 2.0 - so if you haven't already, I recommend you upgrade.
Note that there's differences in font metric calculation when using Adobe PDF format such that there's no way to get exact agreement between output of the CR and PDF. But the latest version helps greatly.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Data getting truncated while exporting report to a text file in crystal 10?

Hi All,
I am using crystal 10.When exporting report to a text file ,a dialog prompts asking for Character perinch with a default value 9.If I change the value from 9 to 16 i am getting the correct data(that means character per inch value is 16) and it update "CharPerInch" value in registry under following location to 16.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Text
The dialog asked for character per inch also has option to select not to prompt again and i also selected that in first go.
When i export the report again in text format it didn't prompt for number of character per inch but the data gets truncated.
What i believe is even though it updates entry in registry and reads, it is not using the same value for export. It never consider the value that is in registry, if the check box is not selected then it is using the value entered in the dialog and if the check box is selected then in the next run it uses the default value as 9.
Can anyone suggest me how to override this problem ? Is there any other setting place in registry where i can enter the number of character per inch.I don't want to crystal to prompt always for character per inch.

Hi Venkateswaran,
The other option to avoid truncation of the data could be
Right click the text filed
Click on Format Text to open the Format Editor
On Common tab check the text box for Can Grow.
This will prevent the data from truncating in preview as well as while exporting to text.
Otherwise you will have to set the characters per inch to 16 each time. I donu2019t see changing the registry value causing any difference here.

Aditya Joshi

Crystal 2008, BO XI 3.1, cannot view reports, UserID password dialog shows

Hello Forum,
We have Crystal Reports 2008 installed on XP machine, and Business Objects XI 3.1 on a Windows Server 2008 machine. We can view sample reports on Server machine in CMC (right click view in report folder)
We can also view samples reports in BusinessObjects on XP machine. However if we create a report (simple report with no parameters) on XP machine and save to BusinessObjects server, then try and open report, we get a dialog indicating 'Further information is required' and User Id and Passworsd test box show.
This dialog shows repeatedly even when we enter credentials relevant to database/report. I have looked in .pdf documentation and forum and not had any success in resolving this. Any help would be appreciated, The report database is SQL Server,
Thanks,
Paul James

DB 'Connection' in Crystal Report (2008) and DNS on BusinessObject (XI 3.1) machine need to be the same, to view report via Central Management Console
In .NET code calling report against SQL Server (2008) database, Crytal Connection needs to be Microsoft OLE DB SQL Provider for SQL Server.

CR2008 Not enough memory while exporting reports from Crystal Reports 2008

GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
Can someone help me resolve the issue.

The .rpt file size is 14MB with the Data Save option enabled, 12MB without Data Save. Presumably the 12MB file size is because of the 24bit PNG we have as our background.
The Designer executes the report in less than a second and we can scroll through all pages and see the image fields perfectly.
When we Export to PDF, the Designer takes a long time, eventually gets to the 77%, the 7th record and returns "Export report failed" followed by "Memory full". If we export only page 1 of the 3 pages, it also returns a Memory full error. However, when the same report is run with only 1 page, that page exports to PDF but with a ridiculously large size and export time.
The machine has 2GB of physical memory with an 8GB pagefile with Windows 2003 (latest everything). The process runs up to about 1GB before reporting the memory full error.
We've also tried a variety of other suggestions posted in the other thread with no success.
We're happy to provide the RPT file to the Report Team to diagnose the problem. Ultimately, we need to be able to produce a 15 page report with approximately 45 images.
Our preferred scenario is fixing problem 2. The CR Designer seems quite capable of rendering our report and printing it to our third party PDF printer in a timely manner with small size. However, the API reports memory full.
The API resides in a dedicated reporting web service with NO other code except for loading the report, setting parameters and printing. When executing, it uses up to about 1.1GB before reporting the error.
Are there any other suggestions for fixing what we have? Are there known problems with large images in reports? Do we need to lodge a formal support request?
Regards, Grant.

Crystal Reports 2010 SP1 on IIS 7.0 - Report is not being displayed

Hi,
Finally, the keycode assembly, BusinessObjects.Licensing.KeycodeDecoder.dll error is gone, after I installed Crystal Runtime 2010 SP1. Also, I tested Crystal Report 2010 SP1 on my Windows 32 application and I can tell that I do not have this error anymore and report is being displayed properly.
But Crystal Report is not being displayed on ASP.NET page on MS Server 2008 standard edition SP2 with IIS 7.0. Database resides on iSeries remote machine.
The MS Server 2008 is virtual machine.
OS system has:
Crystal Report Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008
SAP Crystal Reports Runtime engine for .NET Framework 4 (32-bit)
Simply the report is not being displayed at all. No errors are being recorded in the Event Viewer.
Nothing happens; excerpt the page is Loadingu2026 and Waiting for u2018website nameu2019 in the left lower corner of Firefox web browser.
Here is the code behind aspx page with a command button - very simple:

This code runs on my development machine Win XP SP3
OS system has:
Crystal Report Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008
SAP Crystal Reports Runtime engine for .NET Framework 4 (32-bit)
This code also runs on another development server - Windows XP SP3 (IIS 5.1)
OS system has:
Crystal Report Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008

ispnet_client folder has IUSR user and this user has read permissions to this folder. I even tried to change the permissions to Read & Execute.
I am developing my reports using Crystal Reports 2008 SP2.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ludek,
Thank you for your response.
I checked the web.config file, all http handlers are there. I think the handlers are required to render the images on crystal report viewer but in my case the report viewer is not being rendered.
I have to questions:
1. What exact folders should be under aspnet_client\system_web?
In my case I have structure like this
aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\crystalreportviewers13
aspnet_client\system_web\4_0_30319\crystalreportviewers13
Should I have folders something like this
aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\crystalreportviewers13_1
aspnet_client\system_web\4_0_30319\crystalreportviewers13_1
after I installed Crystal Reports 2010 SP1
Also, in C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET 4.0\Common\Crystal Reports 2011\ there is no folder named as crystalreportviewers13 but instead crystalreportviewers
a.     Should I copy all files from this folder to aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\crystalreportviewers13, or
b.     Should I copy all files from this folder to aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\crystalreportviewers13 and rename this folder to
crystalreportviewers
2. Can you explain how to get a data report?
This is the quote from your previous answer
I'd be interested to see this simplified to a saved data report - no DB logon code - as a test...
Thank you Serghei

How to configure oracle 6i report server run time component with application server

we got oracle 6i report server for developing the web based reports for our undergoing product. we r succesed in developing the web based reports using oracle 6i report server.But we r facing problems while deploying the product with oracle reports at clients place,why because the client does not have the oracle 6i report server. To solve this problem we have to configure the oracle 6i report server run time component with application server at client side , but we are unable to configure this component(that is CGI handler).

You can run multiple instances of Reports Server in 6i.
In tnsnames.ora, for each server, have a different name and each listening to different port.
For example,
server1.world = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = myhost.mydomain.com)(Port = 1949))
server2.world = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = myhost.mydomain.com)(Port = 1950))
Also, if you want to know about Reports Server Clustering, you may refer to "Publishing Reports" document on OTN:
