Crystal Reports exported via ASP.Net App Issues

[oj75]

Has anyone else ran into this problem. I am currently using CR 9.0. via an ASP.Net application. I am exporting various crystal reports to PDF and Excel. I am having two problems.

1)The excel exports are not allowing my text column headings or fields to grow. Even though the "Can Grow" option has been checked for all the appropriate fields. Only the text that fits into the field prior to the export is shown in the corresponding excel cells.

Using CR 8.5 on my desktop I am able to manually run the report in crystal and export it to the excel application and then allowed to adjust column widths to show all the text within my fields even when the "Can Grow" option is not selected all the text that should be there is.

2)When exporting from the application to PDF certain text at the end of a randow lines is being cut off in the PDF export file. I don't have this problem once again when I manually run the report and export on my desktop.

Any thoughts? No one in the ASP.Net had any.

I am having the same problem with regard to pdf exported reports. Crystal tech support finally acknowledged the issue after much back and forth and it is being tracked .

I am able to work around the problem if I set the horizontal alignment of each field to justified and set the right Paragraph
margin to .1.

Hope this helps.

cj, I've already implemented the fix you mentioned. Thank for the info. But, I'm still having the excel report issue.

Well, I have seen some odd things in Crystal lately, but this one has to rank up there with the best.

This trick solved one of my issues with text being cut off at the edge of a text field. Now if I can just get someone to tell me why the letter 'H' disappears when printing through acrobat....

I'm having the same problem and the same symptoms with a webreport using Crystal for Visual Studio.Net and I'm using a .net dataset as datasource.

The "can grow" option is disabled for the field that i would like to "grow". I used the proposed work-around and it works fine for horizontal text. But now I want to "work it around" for text rotated over 90 degrees.

Any solution?
Does anybody know if this is still an issue in CR10?


Kind Regards,
