Does Crystal Report 8.5 work OK with SQL Server 2K ?
Anyone encoutered problems for with this couple of programs ?
I'm using Crystal 9 with SQL Server database. I have a report that was working fine for the first 8 months. As soon as I add another month, the report fails. I've tried different setting in my indexes with different variations of periods. The minute I have over 8 periods included, the report fails. No errors, just no data. I don't even have a clue where to look for possible answers on the Internet.
Can any one help or direct me to some resources??
Thanks,

Hi,
I am using SQL server 2000, Crystal Reports 8.5. I dont see any problem with accessing thro' VB Coding(ADODB).
Crystal Report connection thro ODBC also working fine.
But when i try to connect to database thro "More data sources" -> SQL server , i was thrown out with an error "Unable to connect to SQL server servernam"
I have uninstalled & Reinstalled both SQL server and Crystal Report. Still not working.
I have been struggling with this problem for quite a long time.
Can any one give me the solution for this ??

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
There is probably a really simple solution to this problem... but, here it is..
I am working on CR Designer v11 and have a report that uses a stored procedure. Originally, when the report was created, this stored procedure had one parameter. Since then, however, I have added an additional parameter to the SP in SQL. After doing so, I opened the report, in report designer, and manually added the new parameter to the parameter list. I then realized that I did not need to do this. The Verify Database function should auto populate the parameter list for me. So, I then deleted the parameter(that I had created manually) and performed the Verify Database. But now the parameter does not auto populate in the parameter list.
By deleting the parameter (that I had created manually), did I cause the designer to ignore this second parameter in the actual SP? How can I get the designer to auto populate the parameter list with this new parameter?

I'm working on a stored procedure to populate a Crystal report. My company insists that we put the report parameters in the stored procedure instead of in Crystal...so that the SQL server (rather than the desktop)does the work of restricting the data. Is there anything I can do on the SQL side(possibly User Defined Data Type) to get Crystal to prompt me for a date WITHOUT the time? I started with this:
CREATE proc uspReportData @BeginDate datetime, @EndDate datetime
When Crstal prompts me for the parameters, I can type the date or use the calendar to pick a date, but I AM FORCED to enter a time. I know I could choose to ignore the time in the stored procedure, but the users don't want to see the time section of the parameter. Apparently SQL doesn't have a plain "date" parameter without a time.
I've also considered this:
CREATE proc uspReportData @BeginDate char(10), @EndDate char(10)
However if I do it this way, I can't seem to find a way to make sure a valid date is entered when Crystal prompts the user for the dates.
If using char(10) turns out to be the best method, is there a way I can pre-populate the Crystal prompts like this:
@BeginDate = 1st day of the current month
@EndDate = the current system date
Crystal seems to allow hard coded default values, but I can't find a way to do calculated default values.
I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks,
Mike
I've tried to find this documented on the Internet and found Crystal Reports User's Guid online documentation (582 pages of it!) It looks like it will be helpful for my other questions, but what I'm trying to do right now is call a stored procedure from my crystal report. So in Field Explorer under Database Fields my stored procedure is there with the three columns it selects. How do I put these three columns on my report? I try dragging them to Section 3 details and they're there but when I preview the report all I get are the headers, not the records. Is there something else I need to do? It requires an input parameter which I am not getting prompted for - maybe that is my problem, without an input parameter it can't successfully run the stored procedure, so how do I make it prompt me?
Thanks for helping me with my first Crystal Report!
Hi guys
i am developing a Performance Management System for my organisation and reports are quite complex. so i thought to create a CLR stored procedure and then use this in Crystal Report.
The problem I am facing is that the CLR stored procedures I create using Visual Studio 2005 are not visible from Crystal Reports XI come with Visual Studio 2005. I can create stored procedures using standard transact sql and these are visible, but the CLR stored procedures are not.
I Simply create a CLR store procedure in Visual Basic and debug it. This CLR procedure then appeares under stored procedure node in SQL Server 2005.
I've noticed when I browse the stored procedures in my SQL Management Studio that the image of the stored procedure has a padlock shown in the icon, as if they are locked?
Do I have to explicitly enable a security attribute on CLR stored procedures to make them visible?
any help would be highly appretiated.
best regards

Can I create reports with Crystal Reports and Deploy them in SSRS?
Thanks in advance,

In a report called ICD_PrivateHospital, I have designed to show output to two table from two store procedures. 1st store proc: usp_RPT_Private and 2nd store proc: usp_RPT_Private2.
I have created both the store procs and it is executing successfully. I also have designed the Crystal Report in Visual Studio 2008.
I have added both the store procs in the crystal report with no error. I only wants to show top 20 records. It is running successfully when I add the fields and parameters from the first store procedure. But when I add the 2nd store procedures fields into the report, duplication occurs for both the results in store proc 1 and store proc 2. How to solve this issue?
hey i m startint in reporting services 9 and i find it so interesting but kinda slow, which is faster reporting services 9 or crystal report 11?

Converting Crystal Report formula to SSRS
I've got a formula written in Crystal Reports that I'm trying to re-do in SSRS 2005. I've just been using Crystal Reports for so long, I've got a mental road-block today.
Here is the formula in Crystal Reports:
IF {V_VIEW.FIELD1} IN ["AAA", "BBB", "CCC", "DDD",
"EEE", "FFF"]
THEN ({V_VIEW.FIELD2}&"*")
ELSE ({V_VIEW.FIELD2})
(It concatonates an asterisk to the end of FIELD2 if FIELD1 contains on of the values in the list.)
In SSRS I'd like to cause an entire row to be bold if FIELD1 contains one of the values in the list.
So in SSRS I'm putting an expression into the FontWeight properties of the TableRow and trying for something (which doesn't work yet) like:
=iif (Fields!FIELD1.Value IN ("AAA", "BBB", "CCC", "DDD", "EEE", "FFF"), "BOLD", "NORMAL")
(SSRS doesn't like the "IN" in the above statement.)
Can anyone offer a suggestion on how to write this for SSRS?
Thanks!
-ErikR
------UPDATE------
2007-SEPT-17
Ok. I found a workable solution. Does anyone have a better suggestion than the following? The below works but it seems it could be done more simply... Any suggestions?
=iif (Fields!FIELD1.Value = "AAA","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "BBB","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "CCC","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "DDD","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "EEE","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "FFF","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "GGG","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "HHH","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "III","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "JJJ","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "KKK","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "LLL","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "MMM","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "NNN","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "OOO","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "PPP","Bold",
"Normal"))))))))))))))))
I am migrating my reports from crystal 8 to reporting services 2005 but before this my client wants answers of following question.Can anybody provide me answer or link related to mentioned question...
1 -Will there be any performance improvement when the same Report (considering big data) is being run with Sql-Server reporting services compared to the one with Crystal report engine?
2- Is it possible to make the labels which are part of Top Palette like €œ1 of 1€?, €œFind€?, €œNext€?, €œSelect a format€?, €˜Export€? according to the Account language?
3- Can both Versions of Reporting Tools (SQL-Reporting service and Crystal Report) run on the same machine?
4- What are the limitations of this Tools like whether there are any additional load on Database Server because of the involvement of Reporting services which are installed on DB Server.
5- Whether there are additional (to Crystal Report) types of Graph formats, Export file types available?
6- How is the licensing done for SQL-Server Report services?
Please provide me the answers ASAP.

Hi,
I have craated an interface for generating the rdl file through c# (User will select some fields for group and some for details and report will be generated accordingly). I am generating the XML for the rdl according to the schema. And the report is running fine in my local system where i am using sqlexpress but is not working in production. The problem is coming with the datasource as follows.
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'SOP'.
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection
I am using Integrated Authentication, below is the datasource code generated by c#
<DataSource Name="SOP">
<ConnectionProperties>
<IntegratedSecurity>true</IntegratedSecurity>
<ConnectString>Data Source=SIGMASQL;Initial Catalog=SOP</ConnectString>
<DataProvider>SQL</DataProvider>
</ConnectionProperties>
<rdataSourceID>36a274d3-f283-4ac9-9f26-401ddf14f733</rdataSourceID>
</DataSource>
When i am pasting the RDL xml to my BI project's Report it is giving preview properly, but after deployment it is not coming.
I have tried with SQL Authentication also by removing the IntegratedSqcurity element and changin g the connection string to add "sa" userid, but still it doesn't run and gives the same error and if i refresh the report with the refresh button of report viewer, it shows some Wrong String Format error.
When i am editing the dataset in the report designer(BI Project), the connection string is not storing password and username info in the xml of the rdl, i read somewhere that it stores these values in VS2005 and reporting service database with some encryption and don't keep in the xml. So it is seeming to me that i am not sending these credentials to reporting service while deployment through my c# code. Below is my deployment codebyte[] byteRDL;System.Text.UTF8Encoding encoder = new UTF8Encoding();
byteRDL = encoder.GetBytes(reportDefination);
Property[] rsProperty = new Property[10];
//Property property = new Property();Warning[] warnings;
warnings = rs.CreateReport(reportName, "/QuoteReports", true, byteRDL, null);
But i have no idea why it is not even running with Windows Authentication also.
I am in big trouble guys. Pls help. I have to show it to my client..
We are using Crystal Report Services XI to generate reports from SQL Server 2000 database running on server within the same domain (LAN).
for some reason, SQL Server is rejecting the Credentials that is provided to CR Services, the user has right to that database. When We run the report manual, it works fine, but when we run Automatic on schedule , it fails.
The Authentication mode is set to Mixed.
The Startup Service accoutn is set to "This Account"
Any idea, why would this failure on User is encoutered.
Thanks,
I have been generating report models for users to use with Report Builder and there is no data when they select the model. I noticed that the tables I chose did not have a primary key and when I chose a different table, with a primary key, and generated a model from it, then there was data for the user to use in Report Builder.
Is there a documented work around or will I need to set a primary key on each table?
