How much work did the Business Views entail? One reason we chose not to use them was because we were not using named users, but using a single signon for all users with 5 CALs. So using the Business Views did not seem relevant. We would have had to re-architect the linkage between our version...

Glad to help. It ended up being a pretty simple change but it happened in many places. 1) Updated the database views the reports depend on so that they can use security user_id and user_role parameters. 2) Updated the report template so that it offers the user_id and user_role parameters. 3)...

Yeah, I ended up using the web portal to do it. When the user logs on to our version of ePortfolio, via a link in our application, the user's role and id (for our application) are stored as session variables and then whenever the user runs, schedules or looks at the past history of a report, we...

Hey, does anyone know how to apply a cascading style sheet to a chart report? I had some pretty good success in getting CE to apply my style sheet to reports with text, formula and field objects via the DHTML viewer. But I am having some trouble getting the same classes to apply to Charts...

Hey guys, I'm having some trouble passing a date range to a report via the viewer. I do not seem to have any trouble with discrete parameters, just range parameters. It mostly works. I still have to ad support for multiple parameters, but that's easy. Here is the code, please take a look...

Hey, I've been trying to do the same thing but having a lot of trouble. Did you ever come across a soultion. I can pass Discrete parameters no problem, but these range parameters are annoying as all hell. T

Did you ever get any real help on this item? The commnent you got did not really answer your questions. I am currently trying to modify the action item list to add my OWN CUSTOM Action items. I supposed it's to be done in write actions but where all the informaiton comes from I do not know...

Or perhaps you can just restrict the length of the field to 30 characters using Left(<field>, 30)...

Take a look at the Crystal Web Request and passing parameters via "promptEX" information in the file WebDeveloperHelp.chm or Crystal Enterprise Web Developer's Guide. It tells you all you need to know about passing parameters and choosing a viewer. Unfortunately for me, it does not tell me...

Yeah, I saw a lot of that kind scuttlebutt on thier forums about CE 9 and CE 10. People are wondering what CE 11 will look like and some worry it may not even be on the schedule. Of course my good friends at Crystal's old office assure us that it is in the works. It should have more hooks...

Yeah, they sure do not make it easy when you want to do the more interesting stuff. I hit Crystal's Kbase and thier user forums pretty hard but there was remarkably little infromation there. A couple guys were worried that promptEX was removed in CE 10, which had me wondering. Nobody in their...

I may be blind, but I have read the documentation in crystal's WebProgrammersGuide.chm many times and I do not remember seeing anything about "Prompt User for new value(s)". Anyway, that was the trick. As for the color tags, I was trying to make it look nice for you guys here on...

Okay, I have reformed my wicked ways. I tried a different report and it worked fine with that report number. The viewer came up with the report required. Thanks! However, when I add the parameter [COLOR=red]&promptex-viewer_id="a"[\color] the system seems to ignore it. This is a string...

D'oh. Well Okay. I'm an idiot - partially. I was not looking for "viewreport.cwr", not "viewrpt.cwr". But even when I change it to "viewrpt.cwr", I still get errors. Here is the old URL I was using: http://crystal-test/crystal/enterprise10/admin/en/viewreport.cwr?id=1042 here is the new URL...

Okay. I did not know that. When I go to that web address, this is the error I get: [COLOR=red] Web Component Server Error Bad Parameter [/color red] So I figured it was not available in CE 10. Is there something I have to do to my WCS? Some set of files I need to install?

This is the problem I'm starting to see why this does not work. I cannot see the file "viewrpt.cwr" anywhere in my file system on my CE 10 machine. Noe on any of my CE 9 test machines. Do I have to install "viewrpt.cwr" specially? Did you keep it from an upgrade from a previous version? I'd...

Hey there, I'm trying to get some data security via using the PromptEX functionality that is referenced in their wed developers guide. Now I see that in lots of places people have used it, and Crystal claims that indeed, it is safe and sound in CE 10. But I feel like Rodney Dangerfield here...

Hi, I'm using Crystal's Processing Extensions to enforce a kind of row level security and have run into a bit of trouble. I've got my extension to do most of what I want it to do. Right now I'm pulling a user_id parameter (user_id is from the database we are reporting on and delivered when a...

I have found some significant differences with our web portal (our version of ePortfolio) from CE 9 to CE 10. Many of the subroutines are not working. My hunch is that if you replace the core files like logon.csp, folder.csp and so on withthe up to date CE 10 versions of these files, then your...

Hey mdwyer, I was planning on passing the userid from our application and putting it in a hidden parameter like you suggested. But I still do not think it will be adequate for our needs. Let me illustrate the use case. Say there are 20 users of our app and there are 5 departments. We want...
