Dynamic image not appearing in Crystal Viewer for .Net

1220 Views

The situation is this:

I would like to display a dynamic image on a report and deploy it using the Crystal Viewer. This is all fine and good when working in Crystal Reports 11 Designer. My dynamic image appears for each record that has a match on the dyamic graphic location formula I've created in the picture tab within the image format editor. After reading several posts, I've tried just about everything under the sun. '

Crystal Designer: 11.0

.Net Framework: 2.0

Crystal Viewer: 11.5

A. The path (each of these have been tried and do not work in the viewer). I have verified and accessed the file via each of these methods from the server and all paths are correct.

1. "C:\Clients\Images\" & {whtitleinfo.isbn10} & ".jpg" (ultimately this is where I would like to pull the image from )

2. "/" & {whtitleinfo.isbn10} & ".jpg"

3. //"http://mydomain..com/" & {whtitleinfo.isbn10} & ".jpg"

4. C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\3.5\crystalreportviewers115\images\toolbar

(even tried putting the image in here because I know the toolbar buttons are brought in properly)

B. Modify webconfig to set permissions for crystalimagehandler.aspx (read in another post):

<location path="CrystalImageHandler.aspx"><system.web><authorization>

<allow users="*"/></authorization></system.web></location>

Any help would be greatly appreciated here. This is my third or fourth effort over the last several years to get this working.
