Crystal Reports 8.5 Drill Down NOT Working..??

[RiazKhan]

Crystal Reports 8.5

Currently I am using crystal reports version 8.5, and calling startreport function to activate the preview. Using tcrw32.prg functions. My usual practice is to create a temporary dbf file and append the required data into the temp file and call that temp file into the crystal rpt file.

In the installed version of crystal report 8.5 the report drilldown is enabled and working. Once compiled and running or calling the report through FiveWin the report drilldown does not work or is disabled....

I tried the same with CR X still no luck.

If there some new functions to compile for the new crystal reports version. If so any help for guidance is appreciated...

I did not find any help on the forum..so need guidance..

Thnx / regards

Dear RiazKhan,

Could you try this data of the CR Object.

Code: Select all

oCRViewer:EnableDrillDown               :=  1

I hope it can help.

Hi Dutch,

Thankyou for your response, but sadly this did not work. I tried a few alternative methods but still dirilldown is disabled.

Is it a limitation in CR 8.5..???

If so, I can upgrade to higher version but need guidance....

Any suggestions..

I use CR XI Release 2. It works fine.

Great Dutch, that is nice you are up to date...

Can you guide me through of the tools that I require, I can upgrade to CR X1 R2.
It will help me a lot in completing some BI reports for clients.

Thanks/Regards

Dear RiazKhan,

You can find solution here and search "Crystal Report" in this forum. It has a lot information. I use CRXI with MySql.

Okay Dutch,

Thnx....I will look it up....

Dear Dutch,

All is well now .
Its working in CR 8,5 and also in CR 10 . I will install CR X1 R2 on my test laptop, and try the same on that.

Thanks once again.

I have attached an image to show you if the preview looks good and is same as yours.

The right click pop up menu, upon selecting or clicking 'FREEZE PANE' ..the system application closes with no error.

Have I missed anything..??

While distributing your FiveWin application, do you need to have Crystal reports viewer to be installed on each and every PC ? OR Can we manage this within our Fivewin application for eg including one or 2 DLL's from Crystal Reports along with our Fivewin application in the exe path ?

Many years back, I was told that every client PC requires Crystal Report viewer to be installed. If it is still the same then it is a cumbersome task. Do not know whether things have changed with the latest versions of Crystal Reports. Asking this just for academic interest

Anser,

No...I just copy a few DLL's at the clients PC in Windows System folder. And we are good to go...These DLL's are in the search path.

I usually use Windows Terminal Server and only one time installation is required. In this case no DLL's are required at client end.

Thank you for clarifying my doubts.

If you don't mind can you please share the list of DLL files that are required to be copied on to the Windows System folder?

It would have been nice, if the DLL's are kept along with the FiveWin application exe path. Maybe, we will have to include the Fivewin application path also in the search path so that we don't have to touch Windows system folder
