    display the data source in the report

    Sorry - CR 11 Pro. Attaching via ODBC.

    display the data source in the report

    My report is coming from multiple data sources, each being displayed in a separate subreport and in different detail sections. Is there a way I can report dynamically on what source is being used? Obviously I can hard code the names, but that will be a hassle once I send a report to somebody...

    multiple subreports

    yes, thanks that helped.

    multiple subreports

    Using CR 11 Pro connecting to Firebird/Interbase via ODBC. Unfortunately, the design was not mine - this is replication of an existing report. If there is a better way, I'd be happy to get some advice. The report is basically reporting on details of a customer quote. Then each subreport...

    multiple subreports

    I need to put together a report that has one main detail section, then 7 subreports X 3 data sources that all refer to the main detail section. 1. Putting subreports in the same detail section has text from the the second subreport overwriting the text of the first, etc., since I couldn't see...

    command line parameters

    I am trying to run a crystal report (CR 11 pro) through another application that offers a command line prompt. No problem with that. I need to be able to pass parameters via the command line. Is this possible?

    rounding issues

    Using CR 9 Pro connected via ODBC to Oracle. For some reason some fields are getting rounded to the nearest dollar. This is not happening in other applications using the ODBC connection. Formatting the field shows it is formatted to use a setting with 2 decimal places. thanks

    subreport linking of differently named fields

    I'm trying to link a field in the subreport called "udf1" to a field in the container report called "item number". I can't seem to get it to do this. On the subreport links I marked the item_number as the field to link to (since this is what I want in the container report), but it wouldn't...

    export to executable

    Sorry, I meant two things: 1. is it possible to create a stand alone report executable? 2. if possible, would there be a way to specify a different database source in that executable (meaning, if I have to build a report using a local copy of a database, then build an executable to deliver to...

    export to executable

    Is there a way to save a report (8.5, 9 or 11) to an executable file, so I can deliver a report to somebody that does not have Crystal reports? Would there be a way to modify the target database in such a way?

    output query with numbers

    I am trying to output a query that has some numbers to a CSV file. All the text fields get enclosed with double quotes and when I hit finish on the export wizard, I get an "invalid argument" error message, which is consistent with what I found on Microsoft...

    dynamic parameter not showing all values

    I have a dynamic parameter that should be showing all "companies" from a database, so that the user can select a specific company to report on. 1. Not all the companies are showing up on this list. Is it limited to a given number? Can I change it? 2. Is there a way to filter companies on this...

    dynamic parameter values

    Is there a way (CR 9, 10 or 11) to get a list of possible values for the user to select that are a database field's values, and have that be dynamic (refresh on every run). Meaning, I want to be able to have a drop down list of possible values that gets updated if extra values are added to the...

    functions showing as text

    I have a spreadsheet that at some point began displaying =SUM(E140) instead of calculating the actual formula. This is happening for a large number of cells in the spreadsheet (not one in particular). I have also seen this on other spreadsheets and cannot figure out how to get my sums back...

    server side count

    I need to report on a count of records on an Oracle DB using CR9 and/or CR11. This is to be a subreport as part of a report that is reporting on other things as well. First I tried using Crystal SQL Designer and attach that qry file as a subreport, but it didn't like that. Then I tried...

    grouping case sensitive?

    It would probably have to be a range, since there will be potentially many entries needed.

    grouping case sensitive?

    thanks. When I refresh the report and enter range from NY to ny, I get a message saying minimum cannot be larger than maximum (which suprised me, but I guess it is not standard ASCII sorting), and when I entered ny to NY, nothing came up, when there is data that should show up. Any ideas?

    grouping case sensitive?

    this doesn't help... these are two distinct codes and I need to keep them separate. still same results. I need to have two separate groups for NY and ny, but for some reason, this is not what is happening. CR is putting the two together. thanks

    grouping case sensitive?

    I am grouping the details by a field called tax_code. All the tax codes are 2 letters (alphanumeric) and uppercase, except for one. There are two groups for New York: NY and ny. I am grouping (and sorting) by this code. I have a parameter for the tax code, where the user can enter a (string)...

    evaluation time with subreports

    thanks... I should have stated that I already tried that and I would like it on the same line, if possible.
