Apr 28, 2011

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?
Basically, I am looking for a method on how to preview reports from a datagrid or it can be from the access database which populates the data to the datagrid (then displays this in the datagridview) in vb.net vs 2010.I believe there are two methods using the ReportViewer or using Crystal Reports, but so far, I have no idea how to get them to work. The first idea would be favourable - using the data from a datagridview (which may of already been sorted, filter etc) and be able to produce a report on that.
My Crystal Report is using VB.NET and Sql server 2005. The report can be displayed but everytime it will prompt me to key in the Username n Password..is there anyway to automatically pass the login information to reports?
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.
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?
I was wondering is there anyway i can write some code in vb.net to run a report off my reporting services server have it exported to a certain format and saved as a file all from within VB.Net.
a tutorial or walkthroug on how to crease a simple report in VB.net.The first report need to be simple, like a membership list -- no aggregates or averages etc.. I have the data in a single table.
I 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.
e.g: i am preparing a warehouse report to know how much quantity of which products are left, products with 0 (zero) value are not displayed..
I want my reports to be as follows: item1 item_quantity item2 item_quantity item3 item_quantity
I set up reports to generate stats based on data in a sql server 2008 database and considering the amount of data, reports can take a long time to generate for some queries. I want to attach the reports to a web app or some app that when a user clicks on a tab or button the relevant report produces the results immediately. someone mentioned to me doing the reports every hour and storing the results in a db and then just query the most recent. Using visual studio 2010 for coding.
How can I connect to a Crystal Reports 4.6 report that connects to SQL Server 2005 as a data source, using Visual Basic?I don't want to specify the connection string in the report. I want to pass the connection from VB. Is there any way to do this?
I would like to know if there's anything that can display data differently than what's stored in the DB.Here's my example. I have a column called Active and in the DB table, 0 represents Active, -1 represents InActive.In my report, when showing whether or not a listing is Active, I'd rather have the words Active and Inactive rather than 0 and -1.
I 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?
I use VB and Active reports to generate reports. Now I need 4 reports to be generated on a single 8.5 x 11 page in a 2 by 2 =4 format. Active reports does not have any such property thus this has to controlled through vb.How it can be done through vb?
In MS Reports, I have a tablix(table) where I group on foo. How do I get the count for each group? This is how I would do it for the total count: =Count(Fields!foo.Value) , but it's not enough.
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:
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.
We are developing an application and need a reporting tool to do the reports. We would like to find out how we can Crystal Reports and whether there is an alternative tool to Crystal Reports.
I already installed crystal reports in my vb 2010. (i got it from the sap website) but crystal reports won't appear in the toolbar. i could add a new report, but i can't put it in my design form cause just like what i said, there's no crystal reports in the toolbox. i already checked crystal reports in the customize button of toolbar, but still it won't appear.
