SSRS 2005 Oracle 10.0 db We have a report that is showing a bar chart that we added custom colors to. It has a category and series group, and when the first bar on the X axis does not have data for all the series, that color for that value does not show in the legend. The label shows in the...

CR 10 We are trying to come up with a temporary reporting solution and have two options for our database, Ms Access or Mysql. This solution would need to work with both Crystal Reports and be deliverable in Crystal Enterprise, as well as MS SQL Server Reporting Services. I know that the Access...

I have finally found a solution after many trials and errors, at least for the oracle connection, I wanted to post it in case it would benefit anyone else. I set the data source as Oracle, put in my connection, then on the datasheet window I put the following in the query window...

Thanks but it didn't work, same error. All the microsoft documentation says that this is supported but I have yet to see an example.

I am using CR10 with a spreadsheet for the data. My issue is that I am trying to create a dual Y axis chart showing a time field on the left and a % field on the right. I cannot get the time side to work correctly with the chart. The field is pulling in as a date/time and when I add it to...

Thanks so much lbass!!! I knew it had to be simple.

CR10 Excel spreadsheet as the data source I have a cross tab that I have the following code converting a time value to HH:MM: NumberVar totalmins := ({'CIO_Data_'.MEAN} * 60); NumberVar dys := totalmins \ 1440; NumberVar hrs := (totalmins mod 1440)\ 60; numbervar totalhours := hrs + (dys *...

Thanks a lot Ken!! I used that logic and found arrow symbols in wingdings listed on the web, from there I got the numeric codes, then I used the following code: @Arrowfield if {'CIO_Data_'.FLAG} = 0 then "<font face='Symbol' color=yellow>&#222</font>" else if {'CIO_Data_'.FLAG} = 1 then "<font...

I am using CR10 & excel. I have a report that works easily with a cross tab except for one field. They want an indicator, which is an up, down, or across (no change) arrow on the side. I have this stored as a numerical value in the spreadsheet, 0 = no change, 1=up arrow, and 2 = down arrow...
