This is the list of Questions that I need to prepare.
a. Explanation of Crystal Reports (what Crystal Reports is trying to do? and how does it do it?)
b. Explanation of the role played by XML (and optionally any language written in XML)
c. A possible role for a database in the application.
d. why is XML used in Crystal Reports.
e. How does XML simplify storage on Crystal Reports?
f. How does XML simplify sharing on Crystal Reports?
g. What does XML replace?
h. What does the XML represent in the chosen application?
i. How is the XML processed?
j. Are there any disadvantages of using XML?
When a database is used alongside XML:
k. How are they related?
l. Is the XML stored and if so how is it stored?
m. How is the XML queried?
I Have this exam for the next 10-Apr-2008, So I would need this help before 9-Apr-2008 (Next Wednesday).
Any link/s to a website that could answer some or all the questions would be appreciate.
I would really appreciate if any of you could give a hand, althoug I know it is quite long question.

Hope someone here can help me with this.
I am using access 2003 and Crystal reports XI.
I have created some reports using CRXI that access my access database.
I use the following code to open the standard reports. MyReportFile is the name of my rpt file. I have no problems here.
Set crxReport = crxApplication.OpenReport(MyReportFile, acViewDesign)
CRViewer1.ReportSource = crxReport
But when I use the following code to use the recordset as source for the report, everything works the same - opens the report with data from the recordset..
Problem is after I close the application, access window will not close. The only way I can close is by task manager. If the following code is not executed then I could close the access window. I get no error messages.
When I run the same application with Access runtime version I get the message "Execution of this application has stopped due to a run-time error. The application can't continue and will be shut down.". But will not let me close the access window.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Set crxReport = crxApplication.OpenReport(MyReportFile, acViewDesign)
crxReport.DiscardSavedData
crxReport.Database.SetDataSource SearchResults_rst
Set crxReport = crxApplication.OpenReport(MyReportFile, acViewDesign)
CRViewer1.ReportSource = crxReport
Thanks in advance.

I would appreciate any advice/opinions as to what advantages, if any, Crystal Reports has over Access.
I am used to developing complex queries and reports etc. in MS Access but a job I have applied for uses Crystal Reports of which I have no knowledge/experience. I've got an evaluation copy of CR and it looks relatively straightforward but if I could use Access I would!
Thanks

Hi guys,
I was wondering if any of you would be able to help me out. I'm trying to get a button on an access form to open crystal reports and pass two parameters through to it from controls on the access form.
This is what I have at them moment:
Private Sub openRpt_Click()
Dim selForm As String
Dim CrystalReport1 As Crystal.crystalReport
Set CrystalReport1 = CreateObject("crystal.crystalreport")
CrystalReport1.Connect = "ODBC;UID=ID;PWD=PW;DSN=dsn;Database=dbname"
CrystalReport1.ReportFileName = "O:DatabasesCReportsSingle Project Up To Burn Rate.rpt"
'CrystalReport1.WindowTitle = "Single Project Up To Burn Rate"
'CrystalReport1.WindowMaxButton = False
'CrystalReport1.WindowMinButton = False
'CrystalReport1.WindowState = crptMaximized
selForm = 'selection formula
CrystalReport1.SelectionFormula = selForm
CrystalReport1.ParameterFields(0) = "PeriodStart(" & Me.yearCode & ");true"
CrystalReport1.ParameterFields(1) = "ProjectNo(" & Me.projectNumber & ");true"
CrystalReport1.Destination = crptToWindow
CrystalReport1.Action = 1
End Sub
With this I'm currently getting a "Method 'Action' of object 'CrystalCtrl' failed" on the line CrystalReport1.Action = 1
My Ideal solution would open Crystal Reports in its own window, but if thats not possible opening in the access form would do.
currently running:
Access 2003
Windows Server 2003
Crystal Reports XI
Thanks

I wrote a custom ActiveX Control in C#.NET using a guide (Google ".net activex control step by step", first link on CodeProject). The control is compiled as a .dll and registered in Access 2007.
When I place the ActiveX control on a Form or Report, I can call its methods from VBA and see its output just fine.
When I open a Print Preview, only the top left corner of the control is shown, the rest is a blank white box. This does not happen with built-in ActiveX Controls (e.g. Calendar control), which print as they should.
I also tried a basic ActiveX Control build using VC++ (the sample control created by the MFC wizard), and that displays and prints correctly.

I have MS ACCESS 2003 installed..I am trying to open crystal reports in access form. I am not sure how to program that..but to begin with I was trying to place the Crystal reports viewer control in the form..but I dont see Crystal Reports Viewer Control under active X controls...Is it something that needs to be installed separately?
An other member of my team has the same version of access installed but he can see Crystal reports viewer, under Active X controls?
help.
Thanks

I have created some Crystal Reports to open out of MS Access. Everything works great for me and all the users, except one.
The one user when they try to open the report gets nothing (no error, no lock-up, nothing). It is only on their machine (we have tested them logged into other machines and the report works just fine).
My guess is there is something wrong with the Crystal Viewer on their machine (in our case Crystal 8.5 ActiveX viewer control). I looked on their machine, and they have the same .ocx control as myself and the other users C:Winntsystem32Crystl32.ocx
I even went into their Access and Registered this ActiveX control (design view of a form) and still was not able to get the control to work. We were thinking about re-imaging this users machine, but this is the only error they currently have. I was wondering if anyone else had run into this error, and if so is there an easy fix?
Thank you for your time.

Could anyone point me in the right direction re the Crystal Reports Active X viewer control and access forms. I loaded it onto a form in access 2000, but can't seem to find any meaningfull properties I can manipulate (especially the report source). I am thinking it works like any other active x control and I can manipulate properties through code, however, the main property I would think I need (source report) does not seem to exist. I have Crystal 10.0 loaded on my system.

Hi all
First off, I hope this post is not inappropriate for this forum!
I'm looking for a designer for access in the Wagga NSW Australia area to help me design a database for our small business.
Some of you may have seen some recent posts by me regarding an invoice database. I was attempting to do this on my own but I now admit defeat. I can't get my head around the basics let alone the difficult stuff so whilst I have made a few DB's myself in the past they were basic, this one is way too complax for my hard head.
I would love to hear from anyone in my area who could help with this on a one on one basis (Hence the need for being close to me)
I am willing to pay for this service & would appreciate if the person understands that I want as much input in the design as possible so I can understand it top to bottom when completed.
Obviously I would like some kind of idea how much this would cost me. Bearing in mind itis tutorial sessions as much as design I am looking for. I would dearly love to be able to do this myself via some TAFE trainning or the like but I simply don't have the time for courses etc as my schedule is very hectic.
Anyways, enough reasons, the gauntlet is down, anyone care to pick it up?
Regards Mik
PS - I would like to thank all those who tried to help this poor wretch but I'm afraid I am a monkey see monkey do kinda guy, much better with one on one.

Hi, Big Jim here:
I am really not sure where to ask this one.....
My boss and I are in a jam. We have been using Access to run a reporting process, but one of our tables will exceed the maximum fields allotted this month. Our thought, dump the table into SQL Server and use the GUI interface provided in Access Projects.
Unfortunately, the query designer seems to have a few drawbacks. The one that effects us the most is in using UPDATE queries where more than one table is used to determine records to be updated. In attempting it, we get the message: "The designer does not graphically support the Optional FROM clause SQL construct".
Now I know we can manually create Update Queries, but we often need 1,000+ in a short period of time. Manually punching in all the fields involved and other code just isn't timely.
Question: Is there some alternative, service pack or anything else that would allow us to graphically create these Update Queries using Access Projects or even SQL Server 7.0? I would hate to have to scrap all the work we did over something that seems so minor.
Thanks in advance!
Big Jim

I am trying to build a form that accepts either a single date for start and stop dates whilst allowing a range of dates to be selected for operations that cover several days.
I am using the Access 2003 calendar which is fine for selecting a single date but how do I select several dates (4-7 Mar for example) ?
Thanks in advance

:confused: :(
I think I am in the correct area of this forums, if I am not, please forgive me. Anyway, this is way over the top of my head and I need desperate help! Here goes…..I am finally finished exporting an Excel spreadsheet that contained over 6,000 entries into a continuous form in Access 2003, and before I move it to the shared drive, I have a few questions/concerns.
I work with a group of employees totaling 15. Out of the 15 of us, 4 will be issued editing rights, and the others read only rights and I will be the administrator/creator/owner of the database. Here are my concerns:
1. It is a MUST that the 4 with editing rights be able to work in the same form, (the form consists of daily updates i.e.: (purging, entering, deleting and fixing of data) in different areas of this form, and maybe at the same time?
2. In addition, will the 4 of us be able to save the updates entered separately, and have the most recent data which was entered updated for others to view? (I know in Excel we were able to do so).
3. Will the users with read only rights be able to fill out other forms in the database or should I assign some degree of editing rights?
4. Also, although rare, will there be a problem if all 15 employees are in the same database completing other forms at the same time?
5. We have a few employees who work from home and log into our system via Citrix. Will they have a problem logging into the database and completing the forms?
This is where I am TOTALLY CLUELESS and need help DESPERATELY!! Is there a step by step way of doing this? (please say yes! please say yes!) I am sure I will need to create a shortcut for all users and I will also need help on how to do that also. Currently, there is no user id or password set up for anyone of us since we have a specific shared drive designated for our group/department.
I welcome any suggestions you may have.
THANKS!

hi there,
I'd like to ask the solution for my problem.
I made a new project using ms access 2003,crystal report 9, and visual studio 2005.
I just made a simple access dbase with 1 table(Table 1) and protected with password, o I forgot this table has 2 field(id and desc).
After that I made simple report that using DAO connectivity(save data with report option is disabled).
At last I made simple program(windows app) using visual studio 2005.
I put the CrystalReportViewer component, and these is the code :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace prj
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void crystalReportViewer1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\Report1.rpt";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.UserID = "Admin";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.Password = "12";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\db.mdb";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.ServerName = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\db.mdb";
}
}
}
and the problem is when I move the access database file to other location, the viewer shows a box to be confirmed by my UserID and password,
my question is how must I write in the program so that the box doesnt come out.
thanks

I've got a simple dataset that will ALWAYS have 4 rows, against which I have assigned the colours Green, Amber, Red, Grey. So I made a simple pie-chart to go on the report, but I can't work out how to assign the same colours.
Please see 3 attachments showing the current layout, the preferred layout (which I mocked up in Excel) and the chart settings screen.
The chart is working OK i.e. 4 slices appear and they are the right size, but when I open the chart, I see only East, West, North. So I am unable to manually set the colour for the 4th slice.

Hello all,
This problem has been causing to pull my hair out all morning, so any help would be most welcome.
The business I work for hired a contractor to produce a database, he did a great job and it looks very professional, but he used an ActiveX control to display four months at once, it is a fairly common control but it seems it is not included in the Image for the workstations here (it will be soon).
The OLE class is called MSComCtl2.MonthView.2 and I remembered using the date time picker control (MSComCtl2.DTPicker.2) and I figured that it would make sense if it was in the same ActiveX control, so I registered Mscomct2.ocx and yes, it does contain the right class... but it still didn't work. I found a second control package which also included the class, comct232.ocx (older but it should work) and finally, both of them together do work... for all but one user. It isn't the workstation, anyone else logging into that workstation has no problems.
The problem cropping up is the "control has no object" error and it suggests that I unregister then re-register the OLE server (which is another word for the .ocx files for those not in the know) which I did, and it complains about a missing reference to C:WINNTsystem32Mscomct2.ocx if you look at the references in the VBE editor which makes very little sense to me.
The users do not have admin rights to there computers, but I'm thinking of temporarily adding the user to the admin group (on her computer only obviously) and un-registering then re-registering the control there. That seens abit extreme, and it should just work!
This is driving me nuts, anyone know what I'm missing here?
Thanks in advance

Since you can add Calindar in access using activex so that I can select any date and pass that on to a field in a form, is there any way you can add a clock using activex so that I can select any time that I want to put in to a field? any suggestion? Thanks.
