Installshield should be able to do a file exists type search on the machine. Since your app relies on the RDC, I would change the search to craxdrt.dll Usually you can set the file you want to check for (App Search?) and even the depth (how many folders deep) on the drive you want to search...

XL in 85 = good, XL in 9 = not so good You are not going to see the same XL export in 9 as you do in 85. my experience is you can either accept it and modify reports to suit the excel (some bits anyway) or stick with 85. Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of...

Also try reinstalling CR. It sounds as though the app is not set right and when the OS is letting go of the handle. Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

Can be tricky. Most time publishing should be fine, but there are times when you may need to run the report in the designer on the server itself just to make sure there is a connection to the source.(Verify Database etc.) I have seen cases where the report thinks the datasource has changed...

Have a look at this doc for a command you can use to force the refresh of the report (see CONNECT) http://support.crystaldecisions.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/ce8_urlcommands.pdf Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

In order for the email export, you need to have a live MAPI session running. You may want to create one in your app rather than rely on Outlook Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

my suggestion would be to change the .exe to run as a different OS (like win9x or 2k) Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

I do not see craxdrt9.dll in your list. You have craxddrt9.dll , but I hunch you do not need this in your app unless you are allowing for report creation in your app. The error is likely coming from the inability of the viewer to create the report object. The viewer is an activex control -...

From my understanding with authentication forms such as AD or even LDAP, there is some additional work that needs to be done. This work is creating a graph of the mapped users/groups. This graph is maintained in cache and is redrawn frequently and also has a lifespan. I picture this as...

Looks like something in the SDK - custom CSP app arena to cycle through your instances, load and print out the first page. I can see this being done, but it would take some work for sure... Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

no dice as synapse.. mentioned. Once a report is scheduled the parameters etc. are written to the system database (hence the reason why the updated report is still using the old info). You will need to delete the recurrence and reschedule... Cheers, SurfingGecko...

What's the CE version and have you tried to export from the CMC or ePortfolio to PDF? was this successful. Is CE patched up-to-date? Have you tried the URL export with another format? Testing in other areas will help you rule out where the issue lies. Cheers, SurfingGecko...

So far as I know, this can not be done as there is not command to set the filename. Here is a paper on the commands available -- http://support.crystaldecisions.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/ce8_urlcommands.pdf Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

This is a default setting I suspect to really avoid duplicate filenames. As for changing this, perhaps through the SDK in some way (custom CSP app), but so far as I know not from within the CMC Cheers, SurfingGecko http://www.surfinggeckosoftware.com Home of Crystal Ease

First up the cohabitation or side-by-side existence with the CR products was introduced in v9. This is beacuse v9 is now fully Unicode comliant whereas they were not before. It has nothing to do with COM and .NET CR9 is not .NET based. It does recognize if the framework is installed and if so...
