changing the report viewer 1

[goodprg]

I am on CE 10.

I have created a new user and I want to change the viewer from DHTML to Active X. How can I do that? I tried going in preferences but the drop down list is not enabled.

Thanks for your help,

I had a similar issue on CE 10. I changed the preference for each user to Advanced DHTML and then changed them back to Active X but it would not work, it stayed in HTML view. I finally was able to look through some code and see where it was looking for the cookie. I deleted my cookies and bravo, it worked.

Hope this helps.

First, are a true administrator or a delegated administrator ? (Different rights can apply) Second, is the option for viewers deselected for the Web Desktop under Crystal Applications ? If so, that would explain why you don't have the optio under Preferences.

Apos has a freeware program that will allow you to globally change all users:

You can also chaneg the default by moditying the logon.csp in eportfolio in CE 8.5 and CE 9, probably CE 10 as well (haven't tried that yet).

Thanks for all your help. I figured it out. I didn't had view on demand rights, I granted it and I could change the viewer.

Thanks again.
