How do I get the Encyclopedia on the Header panel toolbar?
 
Could you explain a littel further? Not sure what you mean by Encyclopedia on header panel toolbar. Not aware of anything like that in Crystal XI or Business Objects Enterprise XI.

In the crystal help menu it talks about "Encyclopedia" section where you can add glossary and meaning of report etc.ther is meant to be a button on the header panel toolbar
 
What version of Crystal Reports are you using? I looked in Crystal XI, R2 and could not find anything on encyclopedia or glossary.

What is the database and connectivity are you using?
 
I have version XI releases 2
"Encyclopedia provides business intelligence users with essential information about their reports. It enables users to answer the following questions:

What is the purpose of the report?
What business questions does it help answer?
How is it best viewed?
What terms are used in the report and what do they mean?
What other reports are related to this one?
What analysis has been used in the report, and how does it work?
Encyclopedia is designed for business user who work in InfoView. It can be used with BusinessObjects Enterprise objects, such as Crystal reports, OLAP Intelligence reports, Web Intelligence documents, Adobe Acrobat PDFs, Microsoft Excel documents, and so on.

Note: In Encyclopedia, the words analytic and report are synonymous.

To use Encyclopedia, you must have a deployment of BusinessObjects Enterprise Premium.


You access Encyclopedia from within InfoView. When you click to view an object, you can display the Encyclopedia panel to help you understand and interpret the contents of the object.

By default, the Encyclopedia panel is not displayed when you open an object. To view the panel, click Toggle Encyclopedia on the Header panel toolbar.

Encyclopedia appears on the right side of the screen.


 
I found it.

It's located in the dropdown with the Applications icon (3rd from the left on the toolbar)
 
Thanks but I don't have that icon...apparently "To use Encyclopedia, you must have a deployment of BusinessObjects Enterprise Premium."
