Can you Help me in VB6 with RDC getting Repots ??

[ksraju6]

Hi,

I am having a specific problem .

I have more than 20 Reports which are to be called from the VB environment. 4 of those reports have more than 50000 records and more than 4 parameters . When i am calling any of the reports using crystal viewer . The report is not opening and says "server has not yet been opened" .
My questions are:

1) Do i need to give the logon information in my vb ? Or it will take from the reportdesigner ( since i added the existing report to my project)
Incase i need to give the server information i.e ODBC where shall i give. can you give me some sample code.

2) why the Report is not asking for the parameters when i call from the vb environment using crystal viewer.

3) Why am I not getting the refress icon(the Yellow one) on my report ?

Pl. do help me

Is there any easiest way to access the reports thru vb other than using common dialogue control ??

You need to call either .SetLogonInfo or .LogonServer to establish a connection to the database before viewing the report.

You need to fill the report's parameters with data before viewing the report in the report viewer.
