Hi all,
I designed a crosstab and I want to apply this design on other crosstabs in different reports for the same customer.
The problem is the crosstab object cannot be copied and I don't know how to save the custom design for reuse.
Thank you in advance!

i dont think you can do that.
because crosstab data is based on many conditions (tables used, formula, calculation, restriction record, etc.).
 
just make sure to make same steps for other reports (for format, columns, rows, calculation, etc).
 
 
hope it help.

Thanks but I'm only asking about the GUI design or style as it calls in Crystal.
When you go to Cross tap experts in the "Style" tab you can see predefined styles.
Is it possible to add style of my own?

here is an information from the help:
"... You can create a custom style based on any of the predefined styles by choosing it and modifying the settings on the Customize Style tab. Once you have created a custom style, a new option, called Custom, is added to the list on the Style tab. ..."
 
so, i dont think we can create/use our own style.
 
hope SAP (Business Objects) will add it in Service Pack / next release.
 
 
maybe someone else have any suggestion/answer/opinion, it will be good for you.
 
 
regards,
