Hi,
I have the same question as back in 2009:
https://archive.sap.com/discussions/thread/1364109
Meanwhile, we had to update to SP4 of CR 2008 though, and the DisableScriptsInHyperlinks setting does no longer appear to work. I checked registry access with Process Monitor, and both keys (HKLM and HKCU) are accessed successfully, yet custom URL protocols are not clickable in the Crystal Reports Viewer (WinForms).
Is there a new registry key?
Regards,
Florian
