Hi, I am using VS 2005, Data Access Application Block and Crystal reports X1 Release 2. Code hangs at crxreport.export. Tried using reportdocument, same problem with hanging happens at reportdocument.export.

Please assist with solution. Have to export reports to PDF urgently!

public crxapllication as craxddrt.application

Dim crxreport as new craxddrt.report

crxreport = crxapplication.NewReport

'crxreport = crxapplication.OpenReport(reportname, 1)

crxreport.ExportOptions.FormatType = CRAXDDRT.CRExportFormatType.crEFTPortableDocFormat

crxreport.ExportOptions.DestinationType = CRAXDDRT.CRExportDestinationType.crEDTDiskFile

crxreport.ExportOptions.DiskFileName = curFolder & myfile & ".pdf"

crxreport.DisplayProgressDialog = False

crxreport.PrintOut(False)

crxreport.Export()

Thanks

Mary

Hello,

The RDC was never tested in Visual Studios, and is not fully supported. The RDC should work, but any issues have to be duplicated in VB for any escalation by BOBJ. I noticed that you're referencing the CRAXDDRT object in code. Typically you'll want to reference the CRAXDRT object. The two objects are similar, but they're different. For starters I'd recommend changing over to the CRAXDRT object and retest.

If you need assistance from BOBJ Customer Assurance you should have two free online cases for development assistance once you register CR XI R2. If you've used your two free cases you'll have to purchase support. Call BOBJ at 1-800-877-2340, option 2 for Sales and purchase a support case.

I hope this helps.

Is there any way to get these questions answered by buisness objects or by any other support service? This problem is holding my entire project back, I'm already been asked if we shouldn't just drop crystal and switch to something else. Any help would be greatly apreciated.

I believe I have the exact same problem, my details are in this thread:http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/cs/forums/thread/4654.aspx Likewise this is killing me, I had to demo the application to the buisness partners today, it crashed at the end of course and now the whole switch to crystal is been brought into question.
