Crystal Reports Basic Runtime for VS 2008 - Duplication issues

[Former Member]

I have used groupings in my report designed using CR Basic for Visual studio 2008. When I execute the report from C#. Net and export to PDF, I see duplication of a group happening u2013 one group is printed twice and the subsequent one is missing.

I tried to replicate this issue using crystal report viewer. In the output generated, I moved to the page where duplication is seen and tried to refresh the data. When I refresh twice, the duplicate data are removed and I could see the expected output along with the subsequent group. This makes it clear that there is no problem with the report's design.

This is happening only in a machine where we have the CR Basic runtime for VS 2008 is installed.

In the machine where I have VS 2008 with CR Basic installed, everything works fine.

Is there a known issue with CR Basic of VS 2008 runtime? Do we have any Service Pack for this?

Let's start with the Service packs. You should have SP 1 on your development computer:

https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009351512008E/crbasic2008sp1.exe

recompile the app.

Use SP 1 runtime on the client box:

Thanks for the response.

I installed SP1 and recompiled the report and tried with the new rpt and I am getting the same issues in the m/c where I have just the runtime support.

Also I understand that SP1 for runtime is available only for CR Basic for .Net 2005, you have shared the same link too.

I couldn't locate any updates for the runtime lib of CR Basic for .Net 2008.

Can you please let me know the details on latest runtimes of CR Basic for .Net 2008, if any..

Sorry, that was an error on my part. CR 10.5 runtime is here:

Hello,

After applying the SP1 you can get the redistributable in the following mentioned path as well

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\CrystalReports10_5

Thanks,
