IDE :: Crystal Reports For .NET Framework 2.0 Through Visual Studio 2008
Feb 21, 2008
I have upgraded an existing project to be developed on Visual Studio 2008 but I still need to target the .NET framework 2.0My project had the prerequisite Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 2.0 but Visual Studio 2008 reports that that "could not be found for bootstrapping"Now my users get the error:Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=10.5.3700.0, ...' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
I am creating reports in Crystal Reports that is integrated within Visual Studio 2008, and I noticed that some of the features are disabled. One is the ability to link tables with a Right Outer Join or Full Outer Join. I also cannot "Show SQL Query" in Crystal Reports. Is this something I can enable or do I have to purchase or upgrade?
this event works ok, but the problem is that I don't know what field was clicked. Should I use objectinfo or something else? VB.net won't recognize for example e.objectinfo.
I'm very new to Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 hence, kindly give me step by step instructions to do the report on Windows Form. I'm using SQL Server for my Database (SQL Server 2008 Express) and Visual Studio 2010 Prof
I have Visual Studio 2010 installed on a 64-bit OS with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 (obviously 64-bit edition as well). When I installed the runtime, their installation notes stated that if you develop 32-bit applications, you need install the 32-bit runtime, which I did. Testing the application and all is well.
However, this application is going to be distributed as x86 and x64. Now I have not yet converted my project to 64-bit, but should I now install the 64-bit runtime? How is this going to affect my 32-bit installation and report designs?
Secondly, when I distribute my application to the end-user, will they also be required to install the Crystal Reports runtime? Also according to their installation type (32-bit/64-bit)?
Lastly, I want to convert my project from x86 to x64. I understand you set this option by Build > Configuration Manager > (project) x64. Is it ok if I duplicate the entire project folder contents and setting only the duplicate project as x64?
I have to update and old VB project made with Visual Studio 2005 that uses Crystal Reports to Visual Studio 2010. I've installed the Crystal Reports plugin for VS 2010. I can compile the program under VS 2010 but when I run it and try to generate a report I get many errors popping up from the Crystal Reports Viewer. When I compile and run the project in Visual Studio 2005 (with the old Crystal Reports plugin that comes with it) everything works fine.
The problem is caused by SQL Expressions that are SELECT statements that are not enclosed in parenthesis. This is a problem because there are ~250 SQL Expressions like that in the report file (and it's not the only report with this problem). When I look at the .rpt file in Crystal Reports 10 and use Database -> Show SQL Query the SQL Expressions have parenthesis around them despite there being no parenthesis around these statements in the SQL Expression Editor. When I do the same in Crystal Reports 2008 the SQL Expressions don't have the parenthesis included.
Is there a way to make Crystal Reports 2008 or the plugin in for VS 2010 automatically include the parenthesis around SQL expressions, or was this feature removed? If it was removed, is there anyway to enclose the SQL expressions in parenthesis other than editing each one manually?
how to create a setup in vb.net that comes with a ms access database and the .net framework if it is not existing in the system.. and also a crystal report... and also i want my database go automatically to C:
I'm buiding an app that loads a crystal report document but it's loading the document from my local drive. I need to embed the crystal report i think because I don't want it reading from the local drive because I'm looking to deploy this to other users when it's done. Are there any other options?
I've been asigned to a new project. I have to mantain an application wich was made in Visual Studio 2003 (VB.NET, Framework 1.1) and Crystal Reports wich came included with the IDE. The application is absolutely what we call "legacy code" :).Just to make the test, today I've tried to convert the application in Visual Studio 2010. The converter is offering me download SAP Crystal Reports, with no cost and no registration.The question is: Does anybody has experience with this components?. Is feasible to migrate an application as described to VS 2010?
I have written an application which manages some bookings, and want to use Crystal Reports to provide the reporting engine. I have used it before with datasets with no problems.
I am using EF4, and have a LINQ query and report datasource assignment as below:
Code:
Dim ActiveCustomers = From Customer In FMEntities.Customers Where Customer.Status = 1 Select Customer
[Code].....
I have read up that I may need to convert the incoming data, but I am confused as to what it needs to be converted to. Should it be a datatable?
I have "Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition" and "Crystal Reports XI Developer edition".I have to integrate crystal reports in my application. I am fine developing the reports using the "Crystal Reports IDE" but not sure on how can I integrate those reports into my application.I have downloaded and installed the reportviewer control but not sure how to use it for crystal reports.
I am studying crystal report with visual studio 2008. I knew OLEDB, ADO.Net And ADO connections etc. But whatever connection that we must assign data sources. I want to non-configured and assign data sources as like data-grid. In the data-grid, we can configure data field name and generate data assignation in runtime. Can I do this for report or not. If I can this, tell me how can I do this.
I have pasted below a piece of code where I am displaying a report. I am using Visual Studio 2008 Crystal Report engine. It works all good with the piece of code
Problem: Everytime a report is being run it generates a ('.*tmp', '.*rpt') files typically in a temp folder c:windows emp however we can get rid of the *.tmp files by setting a recycle on the application pool but need a way to get rid of the .rpt files.
Found solution: Call Close() and Dispose() on the report object. The way I am doing is crReportDoc.Close() then crReportDoc.Dispose()Actual Problem: If Dispose() is called the report comes up with the following error 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object'
I am working on VB.NET(Visual studio 2008)..I completed developing my application and i need to deploy the application. I tried it and faced problems in some areas like adding crystal reports to the setup and deployment. I created a setup file to my application and everything is fine except crystal reports...its showing the error like; An error occurred in crystalDecisions.Reports, crystalEngine threw exception.
If I buy the full version of visual sutido, can I then use Crystal Reports and postgresql together? I connect to a postgresql server via net connector (npgsql) written in c#. Can Crystal Reports handle more database types, not only odbc and oledb and sql server?
I am new to VB programming, I am writing a windows program in visual basic using visual studio 2008. I need to create a report using the reporting features in visual studio. I am using the report.rdlc to design the report and for the data to go into.
The data I need to display is from several different sql querys in a data source. That have different parameters passed into them every time a button is clicked on my program. So far i have created several data sources and linked this to the report.rdlc and the data seems to be appearing. However the way i have done seems so long and not complicated that I think there must be an easier way and less messy.
So I am looking for advice on how to make a report that is less messy to the way I have done it. The steps I have is that I have either a store procedure or several sql querys that will have different parameters each time and this will then populate my report when a button is clicked to view a report.
- I added report wizard to the solution. - Then according to instructions i added fields to report.- But how I can attach the report to the Windows form ?- In Visual Studio 2005, I used crystal report viewer to attach reports on the forms.
I realize this post is rather long, but I wanted to give all the information up front instead of people having to ask me for more information.At the end of the re-installation of Visual Studio 2008, there is this message:
"Microsoft SQL Publishing Wizard: [2] Error: Installation failed for component Microsoft SQL Publishing Wizard. MSI returned error code 1638" in the log file dd_error_vs_procore_90.txt.
I have searched on Google for this whole message and found some references to this error, but I have done what they said worked for them and it did not fix the problem for me.When I searched for just "MSI returned error code 1638", I got that it cannot install something because it is already installed:"Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel".In Add/Remove Programs I see these two programs:
Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard 1.3 Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard 1.4
Are these programs/versions what the error is refering to? Am I safe to remove them and depend on the similarly-named item which would be newly installed with Visual Studio 2008 - "Microsoft SQL Publishing Wizard"? I still use SQL Server 2000 and 2005 on my computer, as well as 2008. I had installed VS 2008 on my computer before without this problem and also have VS 2005 and 2010.
i am having a Visual Studio 2008 but it not install with crystal report when i open add new item-> its didnot contain Crystal Report how can i add crystal report and make crystal reports in visual studio 2008 how i install crystal report with visual studio 2008 only crystal reports 2008 install and its open with visual studio 2008 when we click Project->Add New Item-> and crystal reports shows in thiis file
I'm running Visual Studio 2010 with the Dot Net 4.0 Framework. I've been running around everywhere looking for the answer and haven't found anything. All I want to do is be able to access the Tags and Comments of an image file through my code. I've tried a bunch of different things but to no avail.
Dim dra As IO.FileInfo My.Settings.Properties.ToString()'didn't work dra.Attributes.ToString()'didn't work IO.File.GetAttributes(fullPathFile)'didn't work
[code].....
And a bunch of others that I don't feel like undoing to.
My nightmare had been back again ".NET Framework Initialization Error "I make a program in basic language but when I want to run the program out of visual studio IDE this Error appears for me : the title : " .NET Framework Initialization Error" the body : "Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application."
If I look at some classes in the framework, using reflector, I can see that forms and user controls are made private and nested into a parent class.For instance, I have a control which makes use of pop-up form that is specific to that control.At the moment, I make the pop-up form friend accessible.If I wanted to do it the framework way, I'd make it private and nest it into the control class.If I do this, however, I can no longer use the ide to design the form and I get errors when I try to compile.
Can any one provide me with the Crsytal report runtime installer for Visual Studio 2010.I have the installer of Visual Studio 2008 but its of no use.I need the installer that is the .msi file.
I created a VB Console app and it defaulted to .NET 4 but I need it to be .NET 3.5. I've been looking but all the references I find say to change it on the 'Compile' tab in properties but I don't have a compile tab or anything else that lets me change the target framework.
