Show/Hide Group Tree defaults 2

[mgpeters]

I'm using CR/CE 10 with an Oracle db via direct connect.

Reports in Crystal format are by default SHOWing the Group tree. My users never use it so it's just taking up real estate on their monitors and every time they open a report, the first thing they do is click on the icon to hide this. Is there a way to automatically hide the Group Tree?

There is a setting under the Web Component Server to turn the Group Tree off.

Go to the CMC, Servers, Crystal Web Compnent Server and on the Properties tab you will see an option "Hide the Group Tree (if it is displayed)"

The other way you can do it is in each report, under File, Report Options, set the Show Group Tree to off. Then republish the report.

Thanks very much! It works just like I was hoping.
