I forget to mention that I am running the RAS version of CE9 and ePortfolioLite (see above threads for continued frustrations). There is no Preferences Link in ePortfolioLite (I could be missing it since I changed the default home page). So assuming ActiveXViewer is supported under...
Please provide exact steps to download and use the ActiveX viewer, including where it is stored, how to install it, etc. Specifically, what URL should a new user use to get the ActiveX viewer installed on his local system.
In response to Turkbear's comment above, you can only use SELECT OPTIONS in a standard FORM and then pass the parameter variables to the report IF you have Crystal Reports 9 DEVELOPER Edition, with includes the RAS9 SDKs. If you only have the Professional Edition (as I do), you do not get the...
If this is a known issue with Crystal Reports and they are tracking it, I would like to know the tracking number.
I got a different answer from Crystal Support (quote):
As mentioned, the RAS component is "designed" to only house 50 parameter pick list values.
This is done so by...
I forgot to add that the list prices are:
CR9 Professional $495
CR9 Developer $595
CR9 Developer Upgrade $315
I would have preferred to see an upgrade price of about $100.
I would like to share some information I received from Crystal Report concerning different editions of RAS 9. If this is common knowledge, please let me know.
By way of background, I have been looking at how to create a dynamic pick list using RAS9 (which supports ASP but not CSP). I did find...
Is this the ADO example?

I would have to modify it to work in a custom ASP page, since RAS9 does not support CSP, only ASP.
The simplist solution is to just store the passwords in the ODBC registry entry. Look for the ODBC entry (same location as the username), create a String Key named "Password", and store the Password. Note this works for CR9 and RAS9.
I have put detailed instructions into a similar...
I have the same problem (limit of 50 pick list records) when using ASP and the interactive viewer. However, I am running RAS9. The registry key mentioned above:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Seagate Software\Crystal Reports\DatabaseServer\MaxNBrowseValues
does not exist (DatabaseServer exists...
RAS9 does not support CSP pages. I can't afford/justify upgrading/buying CR9 Advanced ($1,995 list) just to get CE9.
Read the following link:

So I am still looking for a pick list solution that will work...
Does anyone have any code samples for dynamic pick lists that will work with CR9 and RAS9? The code sample in this thread uses csp pages. I would really like to see an example that uses the asp pages in RAS9.
As pointed out, adding new drivers dynamically is a problem since CR does not support dynamic pick lists. However, if you want to filter your drivers to just show the ones that are still driving, you can do that by creating a database view, and then using the view name in the pick list. For...
I no longer have CE8 and CR8.5 installed, but I would guess that these versions also try to read the ODBC password from the registry (like reading the ODBC username), then prompt if the password is not found.
1) From a DOS prompt, run the program REGEDIT.
2) Go to the registry entry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI]
3) You will see a list of your ODBC data sources.
4) Right-click on the desired ODBC data source. Choose New -> String Value.
5) Enter "Password" for the new...
RAS CE9 no longer provides password storage, like CE8 does. To avoid the prompt for username and password when running a report, just store the password in the ODBC registry entry using the string name "Password". Note that this works for CR9 also.
I am using CE9 (RAS) and CR9, along with ePortfolio to view and export a report. When I export as PDF, the default file name is "page.pdf", which makes no sense, since the report is named "Weekly.rpt". I would like the export file to be named "Weekly.pdf", or better...
