Actually, I did some more testing and decided it wasn't the FloatToStrF. I think, it may be on of these lines of code. Result->DetectionLimit = aDataSet->FieldByName("RAW_DETECTION_LIMIT")->AsFloat; {Processing I was able to eliminate} aDataSet->FieldByName("DETECTION_LIMIT")->AsFloat =...

Hi, I have an issue where the value returned from FloatToStrF for the same data input is different for different systems. Even a hint of issues with floattostrf. Running the same app on one system (network & pcs) is returning : output input 1e-130 1e-130, Exponential, 5, 2 1e-18 1e-18...

Sorry, I forgot one thing that did work. My report header was repeating for each line until I moved my report header to a group header. Thanks, Mary

I struggled with this lack in Crystal for 3 years (too long) and finally gave up. I ended up writing my own app to access the data and had it create a text file with file i/o. Crystal doesn't seem to understand that in the real world even csv files have Headers and Footers. At least that was...

I have crystal 8.5 and am using Oracle 8i. I am using the Oracle ODBC Driver. When starting a NEW Crystal Report or adding a table to an old one, I get the error "ODBC Error:[ORACLE][ODBC]Driver not capable". If I turn off smart linking, I don't get the error. Everything was fine until a week...

Please explain why the Crystal Print Dialog displays at a different layer than the Crystal Viewer? Why should I have to change my java code when Crystal obviously knows how to bring something up on top? Or is this another Crystal Idiosynchrosy? Thanks, Mary

Hi, When we run a report from our java code (C++ cr api) straight to the printer, the print dialog box appears behind our frames, when we use the viewer it appears on top. How do we get the print dialog box to appear on top? Is there a setting for on top/up front? Currently, we are hiding our...

Thanks for your help. Can you recommend I'm looking into that now. A former employee wrote a c++ dll/com object that connected with our java library. I assume he based it off a print engine api, since that is the name of one of his creations (crengine.dll and crmfdlg.exe). I have to find the...

I tried selecting no Printer and the orientation is landscape. Also, when the user is doing the export, I do not allow them to have a viewer. I send the report directly to the crystalexport process dll. Thanks, Mary

I will restate my problem: This is a data import file I am creating not an excel file. The receiving database is expecting a FIXED length file. I need to create a FIXED LENGTH file in which each record has a potential of being greater than 260 characters. On some systems the file is created...

Thanks for your response but if I am going to write an app to take the excel file and change it to text. I will drop crystal from the picture entirely and create an app which will create the file. Then I won't have to worry about any 255 character limit. I have checked the dll and we match...

I am exporting to a text file. All of the columns are fixed length. Together they run out to 260 characters. I keep getting a carriage return at 255 on the Clients machine not on mine. I have changed the textExport registry to 22 characters per inch, I have chosen landscape, legal and am using...

I am having the same issue. I am exporting to a text file. All of the columns are fixed length. Together they run out to 260 characters. I keep getting a carriage return at 255 on the Clients machine. I have changed the textExport registry to 22 characters per inch, I have chosen landscape and...

Ken, I solved it (I think)!!! I had my charperinch reg setting at 15hex for textexport. On a whim I changed it to an even number 16hex and it worked! I experimented with different settings and the odds all added a space occasionally, the even (so far) has not. So, I will recommend to my client...

Glenn, What version are you and which hotfix did you download? Thanks Mary CR 8.5 Thanks, Mary

Ken, I took your advice on how to make a fixed length field in a text file. But I am having difficulty in that sometimes my field comes out the 10 char desired length and some times 11 char. Exact same data in the field for 10 records in a row, 3 of the 10 records show 11. My formula...

Thanks Ido Your FAQ worked perfectly. Thanks, Mary CR 8.5 Thanks, Mary

Crystal had a new u2ftext.dll (8.6.2.788) in the hot fixes. It works much better than the one I downloaded last week. It crashed. Thanks, Mary

CR 8.5 u2ftext.dll 8.5.0.98 reg textexport>cpi=15 When I do a text export for a fixed length file, CR is adding a single space to the beginning of each line. I have tried removing the margin and trimming the data, this has not helped. I have several of these types of exports and it is happening...

I'm using the cr85vcl for my crystal component. After more testing, I determined that it only happens when the report has subreports and if I select HTML 3.2 from development I can make it happen, if I select HTML 4.0 it works fine. I will speak to my IT Manager about getting updates. Thanks...
