I have a report with many sub-reports (these only start on page 3).
The report is called from an application and behaves quite normally. You can load it, preview it and print it. However, the export is causing problems. From The ActiveX viewer (which is called by the application) I export the report using the Export Type of 'Crystal Report' (This is the default type). I then copy the exported file to another PC and run it.
a) If I have merely previewed page 1 and then exported, the report works fine on the second PC
b) If I have previewed each page before exporting then the copied report will stop at the first sub-report (page3) and demand a database connection
Is this :
a) Something I am doing or not doing? I can't find anything in the sub-report to indicate if I am doing anything obviously wrong
b) An error in the export DLL? I can't find anything in the Knowledge base to cover this kind of problem
c) An error in the ActiveX component?
If I try to do this thru the developer then it doesn't matter whether I page thru the previewed report or not it will always export properly. Does this point to the Viewer?
