View 3 RepliesI 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?
View 1 Repliesi added the COM reference to:Crystal Reports 9 ActiveX Designer Run Time Library 9.0 i have some code that prints a crystal report:
'print report
Dim Appl As New CRAXDRT.Application
Dim CrystalReport As New CRAXDRT.Report

Code works fine on my Windows 7 64 bit computer because I have Crystal Reports 9 installed on that computer but i want this to work on other computers that don't have Crystal installed.I have published my app and installed it on another Windows 7 64 bit computer and it doesn't work.I think i need to have the craxdrt.dll install and register on the users computer.
how can i include this in my setup? I already include the Interop.CRAXDRT.dll when i publish (publish status: INCLUDE/Download Group: Required/Hash: Include) but it doesn't make a difference.i am using vb.net 2010 express?
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 am using VS 2008 standard edition to develop my first windows form application and it does not come with crystal components. I nedd to design few reports but I can't find any help on the net.

I would like to similar in vb.net, but all I see is cryatal. Can I create reports without Crystal?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to design a report where one filed can be multiple lines and the other related field should be located below (See attached)
address may be 1 one or more lines, city state zip should be located just below.
I already have the field set to can grow, however the spacing is the issue. How do I make the spacing adjust at runtime depending on the number of lines in the field. I can space it to say 3 lines, but if the address filed is only 1 line it leaves a 3 line gap.

View 4 Replieshow to create Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 for a Client Server application? The problem I faced is that when I created Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 where the Crystal Report is displayed in the client application it does not get refreshed with data entered. It only displays data that was entered during the time of development. I think this is probably because the database path changes when deployed in a new environment while the Crystal report keeps referring to the database location at development time.

View 11 RepliesI am preparing crystal reports using vb.net 2008 with ms sql server 2005.everything is showing fine.. except that i want my report to be multiple column... I cant do this using "format multiple column" option because the data is not shown in details section. Actually i need to group the data in data.

I want my reports to be as follows: item1 item_quantity item2 item_quantity item3 item_quantity
I'm using VS 2008 to develop a solution which will report on data mostly contained in SQL Express databases, across two servers. It will be used by up to about 10 XP clients. I am unfamiliar with the Reports Applications. Will I need to buy extra licenses to use a Crystal Reports application? Why are they both included in VS? What is the basic difference between them?

View 1 RepliesI am working on Windows Forms Projects.I am creating a report for customers.The report data is pulled from a "CustomerDetails" table.A field in the table is called "CustPhotoName", this holds a string which relates to an image file.
I Currently have a report set up which runs for a single customer by passing in a customer ID. Then using the passed in ID to populate a Dataset with an ImageRow and then a sub report with the image from the dataset.
I am wanting to set up this report where I can pass in an array of customer IDs and produce the reports (1 page per customer with image (if CustPhotoName has value))
I have created reports using Crystal Reports in my asp.net application(vb). It was fine. But when I run it in another system, the report loading fails. So I modified my code like this.
sub Loadreport()
try
Dim sreport as new ReportDocument
sreport.Load(Server.MapPath("ClientList.rpt"))
[code]....
When the control comes to the line:-
sreport.Load(Server.MapPath("ClientList.rpt"))
it jumps to the catch block showing "Invalid Report path". But initially, the code was not showing any error. I haven't changed the path.
I made a program in VB .net 2008 that has a form in which there is a Crystal Report Viewer object. Here is some code:
[Code]...
1. Some reports show tens and hundreds of thousands or records (they are required to do so, so no work-around is possible), thus the time it takes for the Crystal Report Viewer control to actually show the report is very long. I would like to display like a waiting dialog window WHILE the report is loading its records telling the user to wait for it to load.
2. Another idea would be to show the number of records currently loaded (and continuously updated as the report loads them) from the total number. This is actually shown in my reports when i open them with Crystal Reports 10, but NOT with the Viewer control on the form! How can i make it show this?
Since there doesn't seem to be any way to load old VB6 (ActiveReports) reports in .Net, I need to recreate dozens of reports in .Net. I'd like to do this in the least painful way possible.In VB6, the original authors simply did something like this for every report:
adoConn.ConnectionString = globalConnectionObject.ConnectionString
adoConn.Source = ReportFunctions.GetAllUsers()
GetAllUsers() returns an SQL string which selects a bunch of fields; those fields are then used in the report.Now:How can I do something similar in .Net (either using the built-in Crystal Reports, or the built-in "Microsoft Reporting Technology")?I can't get "Database Expert" to recognize globalConnectionObject (an ADODB.Connection object); and if I fill a dataset and do
report.SetDataSource(dataSet)
It tells me "The report has no tables."How do I populate a Crystal Reports report!? (the connection string/data location is not known at compile time)
I've recently made the switch from the Data Report to Crystal Reports 10. I've rewritten the reports our software uses and they are working fine in a nominal reports location.I have heard that Crystal Reports can be compiled into a single executable file which can be called through vb.net, rather than loading the report from a location.

For example, the user will select the dates from a combo box above and the report to be displayed in some type of container such as a panel for example. Is that possible?
