Hi, I am trying to enable users to insert images into a pdf document. I know there is a method to insert an image as a button icon, which seems a bit of a fudge. If you use this method you need to have a button present already. This is not a problem but the fact that you need to have the size...

I am trying to find a method of attaching a file or files to a PDF. I have tried unsuccessfully with Annot (FileAttachment) and addDataObject etc. Does anyone have a working example of how to do this please? Many thanks in advance.

I have now sorted out the problem which was to do with virtual directory that contains the viewer etc. Thanks for your replies, both of which were acurate and either pointed me in the right direction or contained the specific solution.

Hi, an anyone help me please. This seems such a simple issue but I just can't resolve it. I am trying to create reports to be called via ASP. I am creating reports using 8.5 Developer Edition. I have installed the same on the web server. If a user, who does not have CR on their machine, tries...

I had a report (8.5) running beautifully on my local web server (localhost), pointing to a database on the network via Data Source. I now get this error and cannot figure out what it's all about. I did install V 9.0 onto my machine in between, but I can't get either version of the report to...

Hi, I am working on a project which will be using Crystal Reports Developer Edition-Version 9.0. Can I install 9.0 on the same PC as V8.5 or will this simply upgrade my V8.5? If it upgrades, will my previous reports work okay or will I have to amend them in some way? I am using them on the...

Hi Byron, ReCrystallize Pro is a third party wizard which generates asp pages etc. that call specific Crystal reports that you have created. I had a problem that I needed to get fixed pretty quickly and this seemed to solve it. I can't remember specifically what I learned right now but, you can...

Thanks. I think I'm doing something wrong somewhere. I've just run my report through ReCrystalize Pro (which I just downloaded the demo of) and the resulting asp page seems to call the report perfectly ok over and over without affecting the web server. (phew!)

Hi, Can anyone help me solve this please. I am running reports via asp. Everything seems to work fine and the report is displayed. However, if I then hit 'return', as if to call the page again, this stops the IIS Web Service and I have to restart it. There is a page called Cleanup.asp supplied...

If I understand you correctly...in SQL you would probably select the latest record in the filtered set by using Max(Field Name). So if you had 10 records each with their own usable unique ID field, for instance InvoiceNo, this would be Max(InvoiceNo). I'm not sure how this might translate to...

Thanks Jentom22. Very much appreciated. CliveB

Hi, Can anyone help me please. I am trying to run a report via the web. I am able to open it via an asp page on machines that have Crystal installed. However, on machines that don't have Crystal, I am being presented with a blank area where the viewer/report should appear. I would expect to be...

Has anyone had to change the default port numbers for Crystal Enterprise. If so, can you please tell me what might be good alternative numbers. Apparently, I'm not allowed to use Port 6400. Many thanks.

I am told by our network techies that I have a potential security problem with the default ports that are allocated when installing Crystal Enterprise. I need to determine what ports I can use in place of the 6400-6404 ports. Has anyone had this problem and could you please help me find out...

Thanks Nuffsaid. Very much appreciated.
