VB 6.0----Crystal 11 export to csv--dll out-of-date? 1

[ChristianWhite]

Using VB6, I'm trying to convert a Crystal 11 file to a csv.


With Report.ExportOptions
.FormatType = crEFTCommaSeparatedValues
.DiskFileName = strTargetDirectory & "\" &
strEntityName & "\" & strFilename & "." & strFormat
.DestinationType = crEDTDiskFile
End With

Report.Export False


On execution, VB informs me of a missing or out-of-date dll.

Business Objects describes this problem with track ID# ADAPT ADAPT00407379 for Crystal 10. I run both 10 and 11 on my workstation--but the reports needing export are Crystal 11, and this fix should not update the relevant dlls; I would instead expect the fix to update the dlls in my Crystal 10 subdirectories. Crystal 11 has its own dlls, dated 3/8/2005 on my workstation.

Any ideas on getting Crystal 11 reports into csv format?



My system is XP Professional SP2 with SQL Server 2000.

remove the argument "False" and from the Export call and then watch the magic

The export call's argument tells the VB code whether to prompt the user to select an output format.

Unfortunately, the list of formats this prompt offers does not include csv.

Make sure that you have U2fsepv.dll and X3fsven.dll in your Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\3.0\bin folder.

Also, check your references in your VB project to make sure you're using the references for XI and not for 10.0.
