I haven't used it before. But I know that you have to have CR XI R2 Developer edition. The advanced object model is part of the classes that get installed with the Dev edition.

1.ok so something like that doesn't exist in crystal reports 2008 which cames out this month.Or i'm wrong.Because this version have also Report object model as you said here http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1637&PID=5349#5349 - http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1637&PID=5349#5349 i' was looking in api guide for crystal reports 2008 and i didn't found importsubreport function. I found this http://www.vbforums.com/archive/index.php/t-270943.html - http://www.vbforums.com/archive/index.php/t-270943.html but this is copy pasted from technical guide for crystal reports 10. So i still don't know if i can change path of subreport dynamically in crystal reports 2008 or is this possible only in older versions.Is it so can i found solution in your book .net programming maybe? And many thanks brian for your answers because the official forums of crystal reports are dead :( |

The new CR.NET 2008 book I write will have all this in it. But unfortunately, I haven't had time to research it yet. This is a new feature which is only allowed with the licensing that comes with CR R2 Dev edition. So I have a bit of work to do to figure out the new API and the differences between it and the .NET 2008 API. Yes, the CR forums are a bit dead. I hope to make this site the premier CR resource on the web. I just hope that people buy my books so that I can keep this up!  ------------- Please support the forum!

SO if it is in one version back i supposed that they didn't delete this function in crystal report 2008.But just now i have read this: Report Developer Component (RDC) The RDC is unsupported in Crystal Reports 2008. Developers wishing to use Crystal Reports in a COM application should use Crystal Reports XI Release 2. The ActiveX viewer remains a fully supported component of Crystal Reports 2008. in crystal report 2008 user guide. Was this function the part of RDC in older version? I'm researcher in one preatty big firm in Slovenia,and we are choosing new reporting software because at the moment we are using access reports.Now they want's to have new technology.I already researched sql reporting services 2005 and i was not satisfied because, they don't have rtf, and word suport also there is no possibility to cache dataset(easy way, or i didn't found it), and the html preview is not precise as crystal, also the exports are not good, you canot use subreport in headers and so on and so on.(also i read your article about crystal vs reporting services and that fact about 75% of reports that you can make with reporting services ) So now i'm researching crystal, but dynamic load of headers on wich we will had subreport (i also tried rtf in ole object and have no sucess with dynamic load, when is picture in rtf, where is only text i successfuly load rtf ) is critical thing on which we will decide if we will buy product or not. We will probobly buy your book if we decide to purchuase crystal but i'dont know yet because of these thing that bother me. many thanks for answer again and sorry for may bad english? |
