VS 2010 - Start Up Excel Spreadsheet Containing Crystal Report Info
May 28, 2012
I am exporting crystal reports information into an excel spreadsheet and now I am trying to open up excel so that the user can view the page but however I cannot SEE the excel file. in Task manager there is EXCEL.exe which shows that maybe excel opens up but the spreadsheet is not visible.

I have a datagridview which I would like to be able to export the information to an Excel spreadsheet, and be able to reload the information later on from a specified worksheet. Also, I'd like to avoid using Databases with Access etc because I am aware that some of the machines I'll be deploying the program on do not have Access installed and would not want to have to install it either.

I have my crystal reports file accessing data from msaccess database.now while loading report i need to pass the logon info of the msaccess database along with the database name from vb.net.
Just wondering if i might hit a snag in my program. Ive got 10+ users using the same files, via a Oledb to put info into an excel spreadsheet. If 2 or more people save there file at the same time will the program go into read only on one person. Normally one 3 will use the file at one time. I know Sql itself would be better to use. best way i can describe it, normally using excel if you manage to open the same file twice one opens as normal but the other opens as a Read only file, will the same thing happen if im using Oledb connections?
I'm trying to export a Crystal Report with the DataOnlyExcelFormatOptions option. But I stuck, the help is too pour and no running example available.If I use the ExcelFormatOption with the default option, the column order is completely messed up. From the DataOnlyExcelFormatOptions, the attribute might be interesting. But I am unable to find a running solution in VB.
Why I've choosen this forum (VB.Net) instead of Reporting is this seems not a matter of reporting. When I load the report normally, it works fine. When I export the report to Excel, it works fine again. After that when I tried to open the report again, it gives the error : "Load Report Failed" . I've to restart my application for make it work fine again.I'm using a Crystal Report Viewer control to load the report.
Iam workin wid crystal reports have a problem i jus want to create a crystal report dynamically not by using crystal report wizard rather by using a blank crystal report and connecting to the database server and generating the report from the database manually....
I have a VB.Net program that reads in a flat file, and then parses line by line, formatting the data into different spreadsheets in an excel workbook (each line can be any 10+ different record types so I parse and put in appropriate excel sheet).
For smaller sized flat files (under 10mb), the parser works great. However, I am trying this on a file that is over 120mb (400k+ lines). While running, I will get an OleDBException saying that the spreadsheet is full. Now I am pretty confident that Excel can handle a much larger data set than a flat file. So I assume this exception is not giving me the true story as to what is really occuring.
I open a connection, and then parse each line in the file, inserting each row into the excel file. I assumed it would be bad performance wise to open/close the connection between each insert. Could this be causing the issue? Any ideas what I need to do to handle such a large file? There are cases where the flat file can be over 500mb.
To actually do the insert into excel, I am just doing the following (I construct an sql query based on the type of row and values parsed):
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection() conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + ExportLocation.Text + "" + importFileName + "-PVF.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES"""

I am using MS Access Database at backend. In my application, I have a form, which does the search function for 3 fields, and the search is stored in a database and is then displayed in datagridview1 by the following commands.
Search Dim dr As System.Data.IDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader Dim dt As New DataTable
I am working on an application in which i need to use reporting. i have used LINQ to entities and MS SQL server as database in my whole application. Now when i started working reports i noticed that crystal reports or no more included in visual studio. i downloaded it separately and installed it. i have also designed my report successfully but the problem is that how would i use LINQ with it?? I translated my linq query into datatables and it worked but the problem i am stuck at is, my report is based on two tables, after translation i am able to see records of first table but not the second one.
I decided to learn reporting in visual basic .net 2005 but I didn't know what version of crystal report to be used. I've heard that we must use appropriate version for different Visual Studio. Can you please give me the exact version for VS 2005 and 2010?
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 recently download/Installed Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 to work with Visual Studio 2010 Prof. Database from SQL Sever 2008 Express. Now my problem is when I run Crystal Report Viewer - Windows form : 1st message Database Login request and otherwise WRONG RECORDS DISPLAYING which I have not in my database table.
I plan on designing a Crystal Report, and then calling it through VB.NET code. Will the end-user need a Crystal license in order to use the crystal report part of the program?
It's been about... er, how many years since vB5 came out? Since I wrote my most recent project, so I'm struggling to remember things and get used to the new VB2010 environment.
I am trying to figure out the best way to go about pulling information out of a table.
Top row: Mileage of a vehicle Left column: Year of a vehicle
The data it would then spit back out is the maximum term a bank will finance a vehicle based on year and mileage.
What would be the best way to pull that data? I'm thinking the easiest way to maintain the data is with an excel spreadsheet that is called by the VB app to pull the data, but I've never had to pull data in this format before.
