    Any Experience with CR Mapping add-ons?

    The standard Map that you get out of the box with Crystal Reports (any version up through XIr2) is pretty sad IMHO. I had one today where the only entry for the group was in ALabama, the map showed it was in ALbania - and that was with US as the map selected [thumbsdown]. Does anyone have any...

    Crystal 10 / Oracle 9 User Defined Fields Question

    CR10 CE10 Oracle 9 Let me start off by saying that I'm an experienced Crystal Report writer writing my first series of reports against an Oracle 9 "FileNet" database. The quotes are there because, to me, they are just words that our Systems Oracle DBAs are telling me - they have little/no...

    Export to Word and Excel

    CR 10 CE 10 I seem to remember that in CR Rev 7 (or early 8.5?) that when you exported to Word, it really did it without Text Boxes. It was EASY to cut and paste with this setup. Now it's next to impossible. Does anyone else remember this? Is there a way around this (what I consider)...

    CR V10 I have a subreport where I calculate the sum of miles driven last month for company vehicles. I use a shared variable to bring the mileage forward to the main report. It displays great in the Vehicle ID Group. Why can't I use that shared numbervar (formula) in a CrossTab? DataDog...

    CE85 to CE10 - Lost Functionality

    In CR8.5, when you hit the lightning bolt to reenter parameters, the system didn't 'remember' your previous parameters. In CE8.5 the system DID remember your previous parameters. Now in CR10 it does remember the parameters but CE10 does not. Is there any setting in Enterprise 10 to get back...

    CE Settings - How many users running on-demand reports?

    Our Server folks have CE 8.5 set up on a processor (nothing else on the box) running all processes (Job Server, Page Server, APS, etc). Currently our Job Server is set up to the default of Max 5 Jobs. We have an "Unlimited User" site license of CE. It seems to me that the Max Jobs...

    No "LastFullQuarter" in Select Expert

    I'm trying to set up a quarterly CE8.5 recurring report. That's the easy part. The problem is in CR8.5 in that there is no Period "LastFullQuarter" in the Select Expert. Is there an easier way than setting up formulas that say "If today is 1/1/2003 then TransactionMonth =...
