If you are using Crystal Enterprise to deliver your reports, you will not need anything above the Professional edition.

The error message you are receiving is coming from the server side. Make sure that the virtual directory structure hasn't changed and that the "viewer" and "crystalreportviewers" virtual directories are mapped correctly. This "accident" usually happens when...

What you are trying to acccomplish sounds like row level security for your data. CE won't provide that to you. NT authentication is for building security within CE for access to the reports. APOS has an add on for row level security. You can also use processing extensions to control what the...

This error message means that the correct database logon information wasn't set in the scheduler. When you schedule a report, you have a drop down with several options on the first screen. After setting the scheduled times, click the dropdown for Database. In this screen you should set your...

Not sure if this will help but it may get you pointed in the right direction. VBScript: Set report = InfoStore.Query("Select * from CI_InfoObjects Where SI_Name = 'ReportName' and SI_ProgID = 'CrystalEnterprise.Report'") Set reportInterface =...

Scratch that last comment. I wasn't reading the whole thing correctly. First you have to open the report so that you can modify it. Then you have to make a copy of the parameter, then modify the copy. After that you have to replace the existing parameter value with the copy. Then pass the...

If you are using the CrystalReportsInteractiveViewer object, you should see the prompt for the parameter on the screen just before the report is rendered.

From what I see here, I have to say, in short that there is no straight forward way to access these kinds of metrics without some custom programming or third party apps. If you have a transaction logging software (WebTrends) you will be able to track general site usage, users, time spent per...

If that last suggestion doesn't work, try downloading the latest patches for CR 9 and RAS 9. Apply the CR 9 patch first, then the RAS 9 patch.

Large, fat reports that eat up a lot of time probably need to be scheduled to run early in the morning before the end user gets to work. By the time the end user shows up the info would already be processed, saved and ready for viewing.

http://www.crystaldecisions.com/products/dev_zone/ Download the Crystal Enterprise™ Report Application Server ASP sample code (ZIP - 780 KB). Crystal Reports 9 Developer or Advanced Edition and Crystal Enterprise Report Application Server 9 are required. It is the very first sample code on the...

Ok. Ok. Hey Bealert, didn't I talk to you on the Crystal Care support line yesterday? C'mon what's your Tech ID?

To bypass this problem, I built a custom web form that had all of my custom ASP to modify the reports embedded in it. I took out the parameters and passed a full SQL statement back into the report with a dynamic Where clause that was dependant upon the user selections. I then used blank...

Does it ever fail? If not (as simple as it seems), try the refresh button when viewing the status of a report. It is not very good at refreshing with new info automatically on some machines. Just a side note. When I was working with CE 8.0, the software would wig out when it wasn't installed...

The RAS 9 is so new that not even all of the people supporting it know what they are talking about. The best reference that I have found so far is the SDK and documentation that comes with the "Advanced" flavor of RAS 9.
