    Move/Resize Mode not working properly

    Have you tried to right-click the field? An alternativ for resizing is to select the point "Size and Position" (or similar, my version is a german one) from the context menu. Is the behaviour in every report or only in certain? Is it the same if you create a new report and only add one text...

    Two Reports in the same Page

    What do you mean with "a high one fixed"? Perhaps I will understand your problem better if I can follow that. If you want to have three identical version of the same contents the alternative solution is to create a view on the database that returns your data three times, for instance with an...

    Two Reports in the same Page

    Hi, first of all: Which version of CR are you using and where do you get the data from? Next: Do you really want 3 identically copies of the same report or did you make modifications to the subreport (e.g. other sort criteria)? If you continue with your 3-subreport-solutioan you should try...

    CR 10 and Win XP: Problems when using CTRL+ALT+DEL

    Hi, we notice to kinds of problem on machines running CR 10 under WinXP: 1) When locking the PC (using CTRL+ALT+DEL or other technical solution, that does not make a difference) while CR is working on a report with lots of pages and then unlock it again, CR seems to "forget" the pages that...

    Percentage reporting by groups

    Hi, what version of CR do you use? Referring to your example I would solve it as follows: build a report with a group on location-code Create the following running totals: calls_per_loc: with formula type-of-call='START' and restore on group change calls_total: with same formula but without...

    Reg:Division by zero error

    I've made the experience that isNull sometimes does not work if it is not the first statement in the formula. Therefor I would do the following. Formula_field_1: if IsNull({Table1.field_1}) then 0 else {Table1.field_1} Formula_field_2: if IsNull({Table1.field_2}) then 0 else {Table1.field_2}...

    Redusing the font size of the Charts Value lables

    Hi, what's the version? Starting with CR 8.5 you can mark one value label, select "chart option/selected element" (or similar, I don't know it exactly because I'm working with the german version) and change the font of the label. It is possible (depending on the version) that you have to run...

    Reduce the # of Database Reads

    Hi, I've never worked with CR 9 because we switched from 8.5 directly to 10. But I think that the things are not that different in between. I would try to design a subreport and put it in the report header where it is executed only once. It reads the needed information from the v_pubinfo view...

    Optimizing my PrintCurrentPage button

    Hi BillyRay, I just tried this. Furthermore I thought that it is a more generell question about JavaScript and hoped that at tek-tips there will be a greater number of experts, who probably may help. Barbara Barbara Fuhrmann (Cologne, Germany) - Using Windows 2000/XP, Oracle 9i and Crystal...

    Display group vertically

    Juice, which version of CR do you use? I don't know a "Format with multiple columns". Unless that, to me it sounds like the best idea to place the column headers into the page header section. If you place it in the group header it will not be repeated on the next page automatically. You will...

    Exclude certain records from a total

    Hi Juice, In case like yours I usualy use the running total. Yours could look like (all labeling can be exactly or similar in your CR because I'm running a german version): Name: YourRunningTotal Field for result: Table.SALES Kind of result: SUM Evaluate Section: Mark "Use Formula", then click...

    Sorting an Outline String

    Hi, in similar case I usualy build a formula that completes the string in a way that the sort result will be as required. Example: {@Event_completed} if length({TABLE.EVENT}) = 1 then '0'+{TABLE.EVENT} else {TABLE.EVENT} HTH Barbara

    Optimizing my PrintCurrentPage button

    Hi, I'm a real JavaScript newbie and I'm sure that one of you can easily answer the following: I created an PrintCurrentPage button in Adobe Acrobat Standard Edition with the ARTS Aerialist add on using the following JavaScript: printCurrentPage(); function printCurrentPage() { /*...

    Passing Parameters to a subreport

    Hi Hetal, when I started working with CR I had the same question. An expert pointed me to the following: In the subreport links box the dropdown at the bottom left SEEMS to have only the default {?pm-?parametername}. Make sure that the option "in subreport select data basing on the field"...

    CR X: Keeping a group together

    I tried that out and it resulted in the whole group 3 on the next page. That's better than befor but what I need is to keep group 2 together because it's of a size that will ALLWAYS fit on 1 page, sometimes 2 or 3 of group 2 may fit on one page. Therefor group 2 shall never be devorced.

    CR X: Keeping a group together

    Hi, my problem is the following: I have a report with several subreports. One of those is build of 4 groups, for group 2 in the group expert the option "keep together" is activated. This seems to work under most circumstances but in a certain data constellation it is only the sum in group...

    CR 10: How to use the Crystal Repository?

    Hi, we've just upgraded from CR 8.5 to 10. It is the professional full version, but Crystal Enterprise is not licensed. In the help file I found a chapter about the Crystal Repository. It sounds to me as if you could use the Repository without Crystal Enterprise. But every time I try to, a...

    Static Chart Color

    Hi, I'm using CR X since some days and just found out the following (sorry if the terms are not exactly like they are in the english version, I'm working with a german one): In the chart expert remove the checkmark "Choose options automatically" first. Now you will see a flag "options". In the...

    Hi paulmarr I tried that, but when I build a simple running total and put it in the chart its value is the december value for all displayed month. When I create 12 running totals (one for result of Jan, one for Jan+Feb, one for Jan-Mar, and so on) I don't know how to tell the diagramm expert to...
