    Manually triggering a CE event

    Thanks for the replies all. I think I will be able to create a small background web app to run on a Tomcat server that will satisfy my needs. Crystal support had some nice sample jsp apps that were close enough to my requirements that I should be able to bastardize them up a little and get...

    Manually triggering a CE event

    Yeah - I looked into using a file event and that should work. I was just wondering if anyone has had success remotely triggering a custom or user event in CE. I am trying to avoid sending files all over the place as the request for this report will come from COBOL, then KSH, then ?? (where Im...

    Manually triggering a CE event

    I need to know if something is possible.... I am running CE 8.5.0.806 (soon to be running 9). I have a web report which outputs a PDF to an AIX server. It can be both scheduled and triggered manually. I have set up an event which will trigger the report to run and send the PDF where I need...

    PB not handling <LF> characters in report

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I already tried that. Problem is, the text is not beiogn entered or parsed in PB - so using ~r~n does nothing but actually print '~r~n' to the output. I missed a couple of things in my first post.... - The comments are entered in a multi-line edit in a different...

    PB not handling <LF> characters in report

    A little background..... I have an old PB application (created in 6.5) that prints custom reports (orders, invoices, etc) and resides on a Windows box. It is triggered and has parameters passed to it from a KSH script running on an UNIX box. With me? When the PB app is triggered it retrieves...

    REXEC from UNIX to WIN2K Pro

    I will try to be as detailed as possible.... Basically, Windows 2000 Pro is blocking my REXEC attempts that I am sending from a UNIX (AIX) box. Win2k in it's initial (unpatched) state allows the connection just fine - but the windows box has been patched up to SP3 and is now refusing the...

    Quick PB 6.5 code question - Padding function?

    Just looking for a string/text function that can pad a string to a specific length --- similar to the LPAD or RPAD functions in PL/SQL. e.g. -- rebuilding a command line. The first section (string) must be 10 chars long -- but the possible values that must be put into it are 5 or 6 characters...

    Checking return codes in Win 2000?

    Is there a way to check a return code in Win2k? e.g. using a command line tool -- is there a way to check a simple return code (like the $? command in UNIX) ? Thanks.
