Sorry, yes I am using XI. I must be doing something wrong that I am not seeing. I'll go back and do some testing. Thanks for validating it's not the product. Chris Data Intelligence Group www.digus.com

I have a report with a stacked line graph in the report header. The data axis is displaying a count of Widgets sold. The group axis shows by date (day) with a separate series for each sales rep. I tried adding a Top N to the second group (sales reps) but it doesn't work. Here is the...

The first think that comes to my mind is to use the Import Wizard to move everything from XI to a fresh install of 10. I've never tried to go BACK so I can't say if it would work or not??? Chris Data Intelligence Group www.digus.com

No, CE10 can't but the APOS Bursting Manager might do the trick. http://www.apos.on.ca/BurstingManager/ Chris Data Intelligence Group www.digus.com

Well, I figured it out. The problem was the B.V. SDK was not installed on the second server. It appears that when you install a new CMS and DO NOT install a data source (whether MSDE or ODBC) you have to ensure the B.V. SDK is set to install. If you choose a custom install it is a sub-item...

Just to clarify, you said it's a blank column that is not being exported, then you say Crystal is dropping the trailing spaces from each record. I just wanted to clarify which it is. Also, can you include an example of the output and what you would like to see? Thanks. Chris Data...

Gavin, I recently took a couple companies through a 10 - XI upgrade. There are no issues that I encountered. As far as the benefits, I think XI is just a better product from the end-users perspective. The interface is more like SI or Win Explorer and is more intuitive. Even though you are...

Turkbear, 1) Both CMSs are using a machine DNS which use the same SQL Server logon. In SQL Server that account is the DBO and Owner. 2) The CMS cannot see anything in the repository. It can see the objects/instances/users in the System database but cannot see any repository objects...

This is a CE10 install with a SQL Server 2000 system database. I added a CMS to an existing cluster (this is the 2nd of two CMSs). I can see the reports and instances ok, but when a report runs it sometimes errors that it 'cannot find repository objects'. I assume this error is thrown when...

Minor addition: The parameter collection is a zero based array and if you don't want to specify the name, but know the order Crystal expects the paramters you can use promptex0= &promptex1= There is a PDF on url commands for Crystal. Go to their support site and search for...

I think you can get what you want from a direct connection to the CE database. In the CE9 database is the APS_InfoObjects table. If your system database has been uninstalled/reinstalled, it may have a number appended to the name, like: APS_InfoObjects2. The ObjName will give you the Report...

eric, What you want to is certainly attainable through the CE SDK. You are correct, you can build the Tree View functionality in CSP or ASP pages. There is some nice stuff in JavaScript already available on the web to facilitate that. However, restricting the reports the users see is...

The Page Server (or Job Server) service has to be running under an account that has read/write access to that network folder. Chris Data Intelligence Group www.digus.com

You can configure CE10 for SSO with NT. If you open the Administrators help file (admin.chm) and use the index tab to find "Single Sign On" it will take you right to the section you need. As for the folder level security, CE can certainly handle that; there is no need to go to an external...

Since the username/password are to write the file, can you run the page server service under an account with the permissions to write to that location? (might be the job server, can't remember which does export) I think that would accomplish the same thing...? Chris Data Intelligence Group...
