Thanks for all your help. I'm developing in VB.NET so will look a bit closer at this. Regards, Marcus

Thanks Mike, I don't really want to put an .rpt in a directory if I can help it as this would give the user the opportunity to use Crystal to modify it and potentially break it. Also, the reports will be producing sensitive data so there is a security issue and it would be more secure to have...

Does anyone know if it is possible to store a Crystal Report in a SQL Server Database table/field? I had heard that they could be stored as binary objects. I want to distribute a report to an end user but don't want them to access or even see a '.rpt' file. Thanks, Marcus.

Hi everyone, I have a Crystal Report (V9) that uses a User Defined function (.dll). This function retrieves data from a third party application. When I run this from an ASP.NET page the report shows an empty CrystalReport Viewer with the message "Error: Fail to render the page&quot...

I gave up in the end! It looks like it simply can't be done in Crystal.

Hi, does anyone have some sample code showing how to run a Crystal 9 report from a visualInterdev ASP page. All the examples I can find are for ASP/VB.NET. I need to be able to define ADO/OLEDB DB connection info etc and then execute the report from within server-side tags. Regards, Marcus.

Hi, I'm using Crystal Reports V9 and would like to use the mapping technology within it. I have a couple of questions before I start:- 1. Are the maps upgradeable? So if one country becomes part of another or boundaries are moved. Can new ones be purchased? 2. Can the UK map be filtered...

Hi, I'm about to develop an ASP application that executes a Crystal report. There are two things I need to establish:- 1. How can I pass the connection and DB login information to the report. 2. What does it mean to run the report 'managed' or 'unmanaged'? I'm using Crystal Reports...

Thanks, I'm logged on as Administrator but I believe ASP.NET runs as a user called "aspnet". I understand your point about this user needing permission to Outlook but where would I set that. Also, what logs would I need to look in? I'm using W2K Professional and nothing gets written...

I have a very simple bit of code that puts a message intot the Outbox of Outlook 2000. It uses the Outlook 10 Object Library and works perfectly within VB.NET. However, when I put exactly the same piece of code into an ASP.NET page (using excatly the same reference) it simply hangs when I try to...

Thanks Jonathan, That works perfectly! Regards, Marcus

I have an ASP.NET page and I want to insert an HTML Button inside a hyperlink. You'd think this was simple but I can't get it working.... Here's the code <a href=&quot;ReportExport.aspx&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;> <INPUT id=&quot;cmdOK&quot; type=&quot;button&quot...

Thanks Roche, Just fixed the problem... turned out to be something with my wireless LAN access point. Thanks for the reply... Marcus.

Hi, I have a cable modem connected to an XP Pro machine with two network cards. One card connects directly to the cable modem and the other connects my LAN (One other machine at the moment). The machine with two NICs can access the Internet perfectly, however the client machine cannot...

I have an application that requires the Body class to be set after an operator logs in. The application interrogates the database and evaluates what company the operator works for. Thereafter, I set the &quot;Body class=&quot; a given Cascading Style Sheet class. My problem is that I'm currently...
