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?
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.
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?
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
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!
Hi, I am Cesar Gonzalez, I am preparing a exam and I am struggle to get the right information for this topic. There are several questions that I would like help with, if possible.
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.
Thanks in advance,either you can answer or not.
PS: I dont know if you can send it to my email, but if so please fell free to send the answer to my email.
I am trying to view a Crystal Report within a Microsoft Access Project. I am recieving the following error " object does not support this property or method". I have registered the crystl32.ocx and the crviewer.dll. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks Jacqueline
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
I have tab controls, each of which holds a report. If the report is longer than the tab control the report is stuck there. no slide bars, no overflow. I have set scroll bars but they dont seem to take or work. I need to find a way to add verticle scroll bars to the reports within the tab controls so that you can view the entire report. I have included a screen print of what I mean.
I am currently working on a project that is almost complete, but my only problem is that I am clueless as to how I can get a text box in my report to hide base on if a text box in my form is hidden. Meaning that whenever this particular text box in my form is hidden then the text box on my report should be hidden too. how to get my form and report text boxes in sync with each other.
I have a report opening to give detail when a button is clicked - however it will only ever return a maximum of 3 records - however the report window is far to tall - it should only be a third of the hieght it is - is there a way to set the height of the report which opens?
I have this on two slightly different reports, where only one line of the report is different. One report works fine, no problems. All the data is there. But on the second report I get the dreaded #Name? error.
I have a report with several subreports. I need to total the subreports onto the main report. How do I refer to the control on the subreport?I know that with a form / subform I would use: Me!Subform1.Form!Controlname.But simply replacing 'Form' with 'Report' doesn't seem to work.
I selected and dragged a field "Diivision1" to my report then I appended the word "Division". in the view mode nothing appears.Alternative I used the Expression builder and enter the following: =[Division1] & " " & "Division" but nothing appear in the view.
I have a report that starts with an unbound form [Form1] which I need for the parameter inputs. Date1, Date2 and BillingMonth, all three are unbound controls. Date1 and Date2 are the criteria for the dates of billing and they work fine, that is, the query looks them up and the query runs fine. But I want to use the unbound control of BillingMonth to populate an unbound control in the report heading.
The control source is set as =[Forms]![Form1].[BillingMonth]; it works fine if the underlying [Form1] is still open. There is a command button on [Form1] that opens the report and then closes [Form1] since it is a pop-up form that is only used to get the criteria for the underling query; I don't want it to remain open when I run the report. However, the [BillingMonth] does not appear on the report heading. Just #Name?, which I assume means that since [Form1] is no longer open, it can't find the control [BillingMonth].
So, how can I get the [BillingMonth] to appear on the report heading?
I am using the following control source for a text box on a report: =nz([Raw_Turb], "---")When I do, it pulls data from a different field from the data source. I am pulling the data directly from the data table. I have tried creating a query and get similar results only from a different data field!I have tried the same control source on a different report and it works correctly! Why does it not work on the current report?
I have master and child fields in my query, and in my report I have blank controls where there is no child record to the master. I'm trying to set the section (Group Header and Detail) to be invisible when there's no value in a control.
However, as soon as I introduce an If statement to the VBA in a report, regardless of the event I put it in, it just stops working completely.
I have a report that prints lab tests. One section has 4 columns that are framed. Only the first control (STest) expands to more than one line. The Can Grow works on this control and subsequently the section expands. I need a code that expands the height of the other three controls to match that of STest. I am using office 2010.
I have a report with a nested Subreport. Main Report>Subreport1>Subreport2, for simplicity.
I have master/child set up for both Subreports, but I would also like to filter the Subreport2 records with a date range parameter.
Is there a way to get the Subreport2 where clause to recognize the Subreport1 control I want to use for the date range?
So far I have tried:
Between Int([Reports]![Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset]![report]![QC_Static_Processing_Subreport]![Collection_Date]) And (Int([Reports]![Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset]![report]![QC_Static_Processing_Subreport]![Collection_Date])+0.9)
Between Int([Reports]![Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset]![QC_Static_Processing_Subreport]![Collection_Date]) And (Int([Reports]![Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset]![QC_Static_Processing_Subreport]![Collection_Date])+0.9)
and
Between Int([Reports]![Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset]![QC_Static_Processing_Subreport].[Report]![Collection_Date]) And (Int([Reports]![Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset]![QC_Static_Processing_Subreport].[Report]![Collection_Date])+0.9)
where Processing_Performance_Req_Dataset = Main Report QC_Static_Processing_Subreport = Subreport1 and Collection_Date = textbox control on Subreport2.
Is there a syntax error? I have other, single level, Subreports on the main report with a similar data range parameter that work just fine. Or does this type of parameter input not work on second level Subreports? Every time I run the main report it asks me for a parameter but doesn't accept my input, and Subreport2 doesn't load any records.
If it possible to change if a group is visible based on what page a different group is printed on.
The report I'm working on is a Invoice and it has subtotals in one group and totals in another group.
If the totals are going to print on page 1 then there is no need to print the subtotals. Is there a way to know what page the totals will print on so I can set visible for subtotal group to true or false?
