I am having a similar problem. Both crosstabs are in the same section and worked fine until one day when I get one to show the other disappears or visa versa. I can recreate them and still the problem continues. I have deleted sections, moved the objects forward and backwards, and none of...

Perhaps someone out there has a solution for this one: I am writing a report that calculates scores on 6 different areas based on employee performance. There are 3 different sections in each category and the score is calculated by dividing the category score by 3. As a result, it is possible...

Thank you so much! That's exactly what I needed!

I'm hoping someone can help me - I'm supposed to print the past 12 month's of sales quantities for each of our 4000 clients if the last full month's quantity sold is greater than 40% of the average quantity sold to that customer in the previous 90 days. I do have Crystal 9, but I also have many...

I am also upgrading CR7 to CR9. CR9 does not allow you to save a report as an earlier version, so be sure to make backups of your CR7 reports before saving them as CR9. So far, the best part of CR9 is that the exports work!

I am developing a standard report and want to place much of the information in text boxes since there is alot of data and alignment is an important issue. When I do this, however, the resulting display of the data inside the text boxes is 'squished' and therefore unusable in my reports. If I...

I have the same problem and it has to do with the default font translation setup on the machine. I found that in Windows 2000, all Western fonts were automatically changed to Central European. In Windows NT though, this didn't happen. I believe in only happens when you use text boxes, but I...

We set up a special 'read-only' user-id and password that was used exclusively for Crystal reports. I don't know if that would work for you or not.

Hello Ken, Yes, I am using the Custom Chart Editor and it does look correct while I am in the CC Editor. Once I exit the editor the chart returns to a linear scale. If I edit this chart using 8.5's CC Editor, it holds the log scale but once I save it in 7.0 and call it up using 7.0 the log...

I have a line chart that has values ranging from 10 to 1,000,000. I need to use the log scaling option to display my series properly. Everytime I try to select the logarithmic scale and close the chart editor, the scale returns to linear. I have tried everything I could think of. I've tried...

I just got a new Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop and tried to install my Astra 2000P Parallel Port scanner. It is not recognized by the system. I checked the Umax website for new drivers, but they don't mention Win 2000 as compatible with this model. They also don't mention that it isn't compatible...

I am using CR 7 with Win 2K and have not had any problems.

Is there a way to print characters such as 'pi' or 'beta' in a Crystal Report if the data is stored in a table as an ASCII extended character? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Thank you Ken! It worked perfectly. I also found that the following will work since I am only running this for the current month and only need the First Monday for the current month: totext(month(CurrentDate))+'/'+totext(DayofWeek(CurrentDate - Day(CurrentDate) +...

Does anyone know of a way to determine the first Monday of the current month? I am using version 7.0 Thanks in advance.
