When calling one MTS object from another both written in VB6 on a transaction context, the environment sometimes raisers the following error. -2147164157 Method '~' of Object '~' failed

David The problem I have is that the summary field I'm using is a formula (one of three to maintain a running total) this formula is not available in the group graph option, in fact this option is greyed out until I create a summary field. How do I base the graph (using the graph group option)...

David I hope you remember me, we have met through Crystal info at a rather large car makers in east anglia. Anyway I have a report with three levels of drill down and I want to create a graph at each level and drill through that. However when I create the graph it will not let me drill down...

Is it possible to create a summary value based on a formula so that I can use the drill down feature of a chart? I understand the example report shipped with version 8 (world sales report) the field they use in the total sales from the DB, the field I use is complex and has to be a formula...

The problem is related to the margin size of each report. There are several solutions 1) read all the documentation from Seagate try all the different 'fixes' the suggest or 2) Get the updated viewer (version 8.0.0.502) However using this viewer stops the export to Excel working (unless...

I thought the cool bar was part of the standard set of controls that shipped with VB6. There is no .lic file on the machine used to develop the ActiveX control, in fact it should be the same build as the machine it fails to display on. Why ship a control the restrict it's use?

I'm using the cool bar control in my ActiveX project, it all works fine. However when I use the package and deployment wizard to build an internet package cab file and distribute it via the web my activeX control fails to display. If I then open the VB source code on the machine it failed to...

Everytime I run a report with a graph in, the colours for each item in the result set change depending on where the item is in the result set. Is it possible to fix or bind a result set value to any given colour? Many thanks

Bit more info. If I view a report published by any one of our web servers on my local machine and try exporting to excel it works fine. If I view same report on same URL on another machine anywhere on the network no joy. The only difference I can see is I run Excel 2000. I have yet to...

A report published via a web server displays and exports into all formats except Excel. All required dll's are present the error returned is: CRAXDRT error occured on server -2147190908. Failed to export report Any thoughts please. regards arh

I can control the ActiveX viewer by changing code in SmartViewerActiveX.asp eg <PARAM NAME=&quot;EnableRefreshButton&quot; VALUE=1> <PARAM NAME=&quot;EnableGroupTree&quot; VALUE=0> <PARAM NAME=&quot;DisplayGroupTree&quot; VALUE=0> How do you set the zoom level at run time? Thanks

A report written in Crystal Version 8 when printed from the design environment is fine. However when called through IE5 on an Intranet it generates every other page as blank, when printing. I found an article &quot;c2005415&quot; on the Seagate knowledgebase which when implemented seems to have...

Solution: Use the bugged fixed version of clireg32.exe

Two Things to try 1) Has the server that publishes the report via the web got the same DSN as the development machine used to write the report? 2) Have you passed in the correct values when opening the report, ie DSN, Database and uid,password? as below. set crtable =...

having built some Dcom servers that are running under MTS, I need to register these on my client machines. The app runs through the web so a cab file is used to download the OCX and the needed tlb, vbr files. The inf within the cab works, after a 'little editing' but I can't get clireg32 to...
