Hi!
Can any one help me how to convert .rpt file into .rdf in developer 2000 6i.

Thanks in advance,
Anju
 
Do you mean a file that was created to be run through the original Oracle RPT report generation engine?

Wow, that takes me back a few years [afro]

You cannot directly convert RPT file into Oracle Reports format. You will have to re-write your report.

 
.rpt file is Crystal Reports file.
Unfortunately, the conversion can not be done automatically.
The tools are too different.
 
Converting rpt to rdf is a manual task, you can basicaly only use the SELECT's.
For very complex report, the best is to convert to pro*C.
I have written a C program that can in some cases convert 100%. In others some work is needed.
