    Crystal 8.5 PDF Output Conversion or "The Incredible Shrinking Font"

    When I print directly from Crystal the fonts are rendered accurately, but when I export the output to PDF and then print the report the font is smaller. The report has the same number of lines per page, but it is more difficult to read. This report is around 8000 pages, so increasing the font...

    Crystal 8.5 - Can't Delete or Modify Parameter Field

    Inherited a report where a parameter was defined as a date/time field. I want to modify it to date only, but Crystal won't let me edit the field. It has a green check mark next to it indicating it is used in the report, but I don't see where it appears. The report is really a form letter, so...

    [b]Crystal 8.5 Design Mode Runs Stored Procedure???[/b]

    How do I keep the associated stored procedure from firing in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 when attempting to modify the design of a report? Crystal does not seem to be playing 'nice' with the other kids. I can understand it would fire if I clicked refresh data or actually attempted to run the...

    How to undo a stored procedure without it firing in MS SQLServer?

    We are running Crystal 8.5 and using a connection to a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database. I copied an existing Crystal Report and renamed it, so I could make changes to it without interfering with the production version. When attempting to alter the stored procedure name as a data source...
