    Calling the CRViewer from VBScript

    OK..I'm sure this is an easy one for an experienced Crystal Reports/VBScript developer. I am not using ASP but I do have a need to call the CRViewer (to view a report) from VBScript.

    SQL Server - Spaces in field names

    I am having some difficulty with reports that I converted from an Access database to SQL Server using Crystal Reports 8.5. There are some field names in some of the tables that contain spaces. When I converted the report to SQL Server in the Report Designer it asked me to map these fields with...

    !!!Dynamic dropdown parameter lists

    I believe you can achieve dynamic pick-lists through Crystal Server Pages (CSP) through Crystal Enterpise. I saw a Knowledge Base article on it but did not try it as it did not suit my needs. Here is the link: http://support.crystaldecisions.com/library/kbase/articles/c2009631.asp

    !!!Dynamic dropdown parameter lists

    Yes it is possible to do for I have done it. Through VB you can save the report and the new PickList values. Here is a sample code snippet: Do While f.atendofstream <> True ParamLine = f.readline Call ParseDelimitedString(ParamLine, TokenList, vbTab) For j = 1 To...

    Need to set a Parameter Description through VB

    I don't want to change the name of the parameter field itself. I want to add a description to one of the values in the picklist. As I said I can add, delete, or modify the actual value in the picklist but not its accompanying description.

    Need to set a Parameter Description through VB

    Does anyone know how to set a Crystal parameter description through VB. I am using the RDC and can easily set a parameter's value (via the &quot;AddDefaultValue&quot; method) but I see nothing about setting a description. I do see a &quot;NthValueDescription&quot; method which accepts an index...

    Dynamic Parameter pick-lists

    Not yet. I know you can modify the contents of the picklists via API calls (from a VB app for example). But you have to save the report with its modified contents. I have many such reports that I need to use this functionality for. This seems to me a MAJOR limitation of Crystal. Not everyone...

    Dynamic Parameter pick-lists

    Does anyone know of a way to get dynamic picklists for parameters functioning from a Compiled Report. I am limited to running the report (compiled) from the desktop - not from a Web Server. I would like to run a SQL script (from a file) which would populate the picklists based on some criteria...
