SAP Crystal Report -> OLE object Adobe Acrobat

[former_member902797]

Good evening, I have a rpt file and I need linking, in the section report footer, an OLE object Adobe Acrobat Document, with a dynamic location, the file change every time.

I need this because when I'm printing (NO PREVIEW) my work order, togheter at the work order must be printing the drawing. I tried using the Format graphic on the OLE object, section Picture / formula graphic, but d'not work. It work only with images file.

Here below the formula:

formula = “\\MyDirectory\” + left({BEAS_FTHAUPT.ItemCode},1) + "\" & {BEAS_FTHAUPT.ItemCode} + ".pdf"

Is there anyone that had my this problem?

I'm working with the runtime Crystal Report 2013 support pack 8, version 14.1.8.2060.

Thank you in advance

As of Crystal Reports 2011 we no longer ship the .NET SDK with CR. You need to go to

https://support.sap.com/en/index.html

And download the matching .NET SDK or run the Client Tool's on your DEV PC to get .NET components installed, use the Custom option ( or what ever it's called now )

CR runtime will ONLY load the image/file when the report opens, so you can't do a batch job without closing/opening the report each time.
