This looks great! It's much better than I thought I would be able to find. It'll take some work to get the formatting to work the way we want (format each item individually, on the fly, and save the format to the database), but it looks like it can do the job. I've already gotten a screen...

Thanks! I'll check that out. Mary

The person I am developing this program for is a very visually oriented person, and requires the following: KEY REQUIREMENTS * Items visually distinct from one another: More important items might be bigger, in bold, outdented or red. Related items under that might be in a smaller font...

Is it feasible/what would it take to allow rich text data entry in a list of items? I have in mind something like an Excel spreadsheet interface, with bold, italics, font size changes possible. Also good would be something like MS Project, with the outline format it uses of tasks & subtasks...

A "bitwise and" is a binary operation that performs an "and" on each bit of the two numbers, like this: 1 and 1 = 1 1 and 0 = 0 0 and 1 = 0 0 and 0 = 0 With a longer number, say 11 and 5, you'd get this, if the 1's column is on the left, and the 8's column is on the right...

I don't know whether there is a bitwise "and" built into Crystal. If there isn't, you can write one yourself. If you divide a number by two, this shifts it one bit to the left, then you can use the Remainder(x, 2) to give you the value of the leftmost (smallest order) bit (0 or 1)...

Have you figured this one out yet? I've been away from this forum for a while. I do have a report that passes a stored procedure parameter value as a subreport link, but I have not put it on the Web yet. If the parameter is not in the main report's parameter list, have you tried adding a...

It sounds like you are already supplying a separate user ID and password for the subreport (in addition to the user ID and password required for the main report).&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>Are you naming the user and password like this?<br><br>&lt;INPUT TYPE=&quot;hidden&quot; NAME=...

Yes, you can default this to &quot;off.&quot;<br><br>Before you distribute the report, run the exe, and when the window comes up the first time, un-check the box.&nbsp;&nbsp;When you close the report, the setting is saved in the .CRF file, which is distributed with the...

We have a Citrix Terminal Server that I tried installing some Crystal reports on (version 7 MR1), and I got a similar error.&nbsp;&nbsp;(I don't remember exactly what it was, this was a few months ago.)&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>I logged the problem with Seagate tech. support, and was told that this is...

If you plan to make your report available over the web, be careful basing your report on Crystal queries.&nbsp;&nbsp;I found that this caused the Web server that served up the reports to crash when there were multiple people accessing the report.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>A new connection to the...

I don't know about a DLL, but check the versions of Crystal reports on the two machines.&nbsp;&nbsp;Are they the same?&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>According to the help file, shared variables are supposed to replace Fetch and Store, I think starting with Crystal 7.&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't know whether the...

Are you trying to run reports that were previously working with CR7?&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>I'm not sure about the executable for IIS, but the name of the web report server executable for CGI changed from version 7 to version 8.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was crweb.exe, and it changed to wcscgi.exe.<br><br>Are...

I'm using CR 7, but I thought I saw something in the version 8 release notes about this.&nbsp;&nbsp;Has anyone used this in CR 8?<br><br>Mary

Yes.&nbsp;&nbsp;You can see what ODBC connection the report is using by going to File, Database, Set Location in the report designer.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then, check the control panel ODBC settings for that DSN on a PC where the report works (like the development PC), and make sure the same DSN is set up...
