Hi all,
I'm trying to generate a simple crystal report without a database. Several
people mention the use of a dataset. Someone mention in a msdn forum that I
could use the SetParameterVal ue to easily fill the fields in a simple
report. So. I looked at datasets and I think I'll try this way first. I'm
pretty new and I still don't understand much of this stuff. So. here is what
I did . and it is not working :-(.
1.-create new windows application: WindowsAppicati on1.
2.-from the toolbox I add a 'ReportDocument '. This brings up the 'Choose a
ReportDocument" window. There is only one choice in the dropdown box:
'Untyped ReportDocument' . Pressed OK. ReportDocument shows below the form.
3.-Project|add New Item| Crystal Report. CrystalReport1. rpt. This brings up
the 'type of report' window from crystal report. I choose blank report. Then
I add an "unbounded text" field to section 2 (page header) of the report
file. I figure I'll try this with only one field first.
4.-Back to the form[design]. Click on Data source and add a new source.
Options are: Database, web service, object. I picked
object|WindowsA ppication1|Crys talReport1. Clicked on the finished button.
5.- I selected the DocumentReport1 icon below the form and change the 'Name'
property to the CrystalReport1 file I created in number 3 above.
The truth is, I don't know what to do in number 4. There are several
choices. I picked Form1 while trying and there isn't any effects I can see.
Now I'm thinking that everything went pretty well, no errors, no warnings !
(It compiles and runs ok). Of course, there is nothing in the form yet. I
added a button and try this:
reportDocument1 .SetParameterVa lue("UnboundStr ing1","abcde");
I get an exception telling me that the index is incorrect. Yeap, I have no
clue why. I guess 'UnboundString1 ' is not the name of the field. I think I'm
missing something :-( .. Or maybe is a whole bunch :-).
I like to be able to
(1) change the value in the text field I created in the .rpt file
(2) and later preview it
(3) and print it.
Could someone point me in the right direction for changing the field through
a button's on_click event. I'll deal with the other two issues later :-).
Thanks a bunch. 1 11043
Hi,
I usually use Dataset to generate reports, I find it easier and more
configurable.
If you want to just generate a simple report you could use only parameters,
I have done this in the past to be able to print a nicely formatted page.
Basically you create your report as you mentioned. After that you add the
parameters you need.
Once the report has all the required parameters you go to code view and code
it like this:
ReportDocument rd = new MyReportName()
rd.SetParameter Value( "param1", value1);
....
rd.SetParameter Value( "paramN", valueN);
//finally assign the report to the viewer
crystalReportVi ewer1.ReportSou rce = rd;

Hi,
I am developing an ASP.NET application which uses Crystal reports 9. It was
working fine. But later I installed the trial Crystal Report 11. After that
the generating of the reports gives the folowing error
"System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Not enough memory for
operation."
The change of version may not be the actual cause but I cant trace out what
other change I might have done to cause this.

I'm working with Brian Bischof's excellent 'crystal reports .net
programming', but I'm having one problem: I can export to .pdf in code, no
problem, using the exporttodisk method, but there appears to be no way to do
this when there are parameters in the report. If anyone knows how to export
to .pdf in code when there are params, I'd sure appreciate some help.

Hi to all,
Well, I am working on dotnet 2005 with crystal reports 10 and backend
as sql server.
I am facing a problem while loading a report.
Actually the issue is, when I load report it takes huge time to load a
report whether it is a 1 page report or thousands page report.
We have migrated the project from VB to VB.NET, in VB its working fine
because in that report is loaded page by page but in VB.NET whole
report is loaded in one go.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
