Locked works for text boxes but not for option buttons. The control must be visible to display information. Any suggestions for the option buttons? Thanks, Carolyn

Locked is it! Thank you, Carolyn

I have controls for which I want to display information at times, but not let the user enter or modify data. Setting the enabled property to false caused the control to be hardly visible. It there a way to disable controls and still have the control be seen. I keep looking for a...

I want to record the date and time, but I will only show the user the date. I tried the following line as an insert string into SQL and it will not work. It works without the timevalue portion. lstrUpdateStmt="Insert into CEEmpNearRel(CEENR_EmpNo,CEENR_EffectiveDate) values...

The problem is that I was trying to update a recordset that had been opened adOpenStatic instead of adOpenKeyset. When drawing up a recordset from a Stored Procedure, the recordset seems to always be adOpenStatic. Therefore, the source of the recordset is unidentifiable.. Carolyn

I tried that. I got a new sscsdk80.dll with the service pack. According to the instructions, any previous versions had to be removed from the computer. The reports needed to be refreshed. All that did not help me either. I can drill down on the reports. (I did not test that feature before...

I have included all the files in \WINNT\Crystal subdirectory which includes one that named u2fpdf.dll. Is that the one you are referring to? If so how do I make the application use it? Carolyn

Well, I finally got a VB 6 application using Crystal Reports 8.5 installed on a Windows 2000 machine. I promise to write an article about it as soon as I get all the items in place. However, I have another issue to conquer. I am creating invoices and they appear to be created on the screen...

I have a complex report for which I want to suppress a section programmatically. The section contains a subreport. Since there are several sections to the report, I will want to be able to "spin" through the objects to determine whether or not the subreport is actually contained in...

Even if I have not paid the royalties, would I actually be prevented from installing my VB application? Is the royalty fee payment on an honor basis, or is there a key that needs to be installed at the same time? Carolyn

I think I am not being clear enough in describing my delima. Even if it requires rolyalties, I still need to be able to deploy the application. When I developed my VB application, I added a Crystal report as a designer in the VB project. (The end users are not creating reports, they will be...

I want to only install the VB application which contain Crystal reports as "Designers" in the VB project. Since I initially posted this query, I did go through and added files through the Deployment Wizard so that Craxdrt.dll, CRViewer.dll, CRDesignerCtrl.dll, Craxddrt.dll, Mfc42.dll...

What are the appropriate steps needed to install Crystal report designers with a VB 6.0 application? The designers are created by adding a Crystal 8.5 report. We are developing on Windows XP machines and need to deploy on both Windows 2000 and Windows XP machines. Carolyn

Including everything did not help me. I put the files in the directory \WINNT\Crystal\ and started the computer again. Because that did work, I also put them in the application folder. I looked at the Runtime.hlp that comes with Crystal 8.5 and the instructions seem to be for SQL Server 6.xx...

I am compiling a VB 6.0 project that contains several Crystal 8.5 reports. It is not an easy job! The project is being developed on a machine with Windows xp Professional. I finally got the project to compile. I then created a package to load on a machine with Windows 2000. I have made sure...
