Missing Report Parameter

Posted on Apr 08, 2008 at 04:35 PM 16 Views

I just upgraded from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual Studio 2008 and am fighting through the issues with Crystal Reports and the Crystal Reports Viewer.

I am programmatically setting the Report Parameters because I don't want to prompt the user for them. This is the line of code:

report.SetParameterValue("ReportNickname", "MyReportNickName");

This was fine in VS 2003, but now the viewer comes back empty except for an error message saying the report parameters are missing.

Any ideas??

Thanks for any help.

    SOLVED.

    The problem was the order of operations. Previously, I would set the parameter and THEN set the report data source. This worked in VS 2003, but not in VS 2008 (and probably not VS 2005). So I changed the code to do report.SetDataSource() first, THEN do report.SetParameterValue().

    Hope that helps someone.
