I write/maintain over 70 reports using VB6 to manage the reports. We want to turn on the GroupTree for Preview as clients are getting tired of wadding thru the preview to find the data they want prior to printing a few of hundred of pages.
So I started working on the Change Group Options by...
I did a search and found nothing. I am using CR10 and VB6.
We have a report that does drilldown. It just does fine and nothing wrong. But the pages can get as large as 200+. Client doesn't want to print all of it. The way the report is generated, we can't quite narrow it down. So if the report...
This is a toughy and I have already spend a full day on this. I am not sure what I can do. It works as far as I know but there is a little thing that I am not seeing. I hope you can help.
Here is the specs. The report has 5 groups. All but one is grouped by a recordfield. The only one is a...
Using CR10, we have several printers that change the output size. Sometimes an edge will get cut off by 1/8 or 1/4 when printed on one printer. But it is fine on another printer. I can even see the changes in CR when working on a report after changing the printer.
So with a report open, click...
I did a search and I am not finding the exact answer to my help but I see that there is possibility. I moved from CR7 to CR10. In CR7, we connect to the "database" by using TTX files. With CR10, I realized that I can connect directly to a stored procedure and display better recordset than a...
With VB6 and CR10 and RDC.
I was able to manage to preview records and then close it if there is no records to show. I use the crReport_NoData event to trap it, then display a message box that there are no records. When the user clicks the message box OK button, the preview form unloads.
Now...
I have read partial stuff here and there outside of this forum but then I searched in this forum. I am getting some ideas but not the full picture.
I want to be able to create a report from scratch or modify a template report. If modifying a report, I want the ability to create new fields and...
I have a few reports that has been left alone for quite some time. With a new report I created for our application, I can't have it ignored. So this report and the others need to be fixed.
I spent some time on it and I have no idea how. I did learn a few things while I was playing around. You...
I need some translator program to translate the reports. The only one I found that makes the job easy is this application at www.softlang.com. It was released in January 2004. So it is new but I downloaded the trial version and played around with. Found one bug and report it.
Well, it is easy...
I have a report that clients can choose to display items that were sold with warranties. One of the parameters is "IncludeLifetime" as some warranties are lifetime. If a warranty is lifetime then the expiration date field of that record is null. If a warranty is not lifetime then the expiration...
I did check the search and FAQ, I couldn't find what I need but I did pick up a few tips but they don't quite work. So here is my problem. Keep in mind that I am picking up someone else's work, who is not with us. I don't know how the creator of the report did this. But I have spent plenty of...
I am using VB6 with CR7.
There is a report that does some filtering with formulas. The problem is that the recordset.count is always a number, let say, 1000. If it were zero, then VB will display a message box that there are no records to display.
But there is records and they all get...
A client of ours is having problems with printing statements and it has been two weeks. (The only client of out many.) They are getting upset as the statements is a monthly thing. I have no idea what is causing the problem and I have no idea where to look. I have google'd it and nothing came...
I have a Purchase Order report to work on. The client called and demanded that we provide a subtotal based on status so Product Management gave in. Gee, now I am not sure how it works. I know I am on the right track but I can't get moving. The result is a SQL Query, a single recordset...
