Remove report Groups/Section via API

[Former Member]

Hi,

I`ve looked at the groups, sections collections and I did not see any delete method.

I need to remove specific groups or sections on run time.

How can I do it ?

do I need to named each section or group so I can find it using code ?

Regards,

Roei

To actually delete objects from a report, you will have to use the RAS SDK. Now, you may want to consider simply hiding a section as opposed to deleting it. In this case, you do not need RAS and you can use the Crystal Reports assemblies for .NET. Please note that if you do need more help, it will be good to provide the info requested in the previous note.

Hi,

First I want to thank you for your answers.

The purpose is to delete the groups and also the sections and not supress them.

Here are the details:

1) .NET framework: 2.0

2) CR: 11.5.7

Which king of objects should I use in .NET to accomplish the task ?

You will have to use RAS. There are a number of sample apps at this link:

And here is a link to the developer library;

This White paper is a good source of info too:

And finally, a KB on how to use reportclientdocument object from a reportdocument object is [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do]
