Dinamically change the graphic file using VS2008 and CR.NET v 10.5.3700.0

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to dynamically change the image of a picture control using VS 2008.net and CR.net v 10.5.3700.0

Same concept as the Graphic Location from CR v11

Thanks,

Edgar

I dont think there is a way to do that other than maybe using datasets.

If you need the graphic location type change then you will need to use Crystal Reports 2008.

Here is my situation.

I have VS 2008 with the CR Basic v10.5.3700.0 but the Dynamic Image Loading doesnt work. I also have

Crystal Reports XI 11.0.0.2495 or v11.0.3300.0 but this one Export is not working.

I need to know what version I need to get that will work with Dynamic Image and Exporting.

Also can I just ge the merger files and install in production PC and just references?

Thanks,

Edgar

See [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/WhichCrystalReportsassemblyversionsaresupportedinwhichversionsofVisualStudio+.NET] wiki re. what versions of CR are supported with what versions of .NET.

Like I stated in my previous post, you will need to get Crystal Reports 2008.

You can download a trial version [here|http://www.businessobjects.com/campaigns/forms/downloads/crystal/2008/default.asp].

XI and XI R2 are not tested or supported with VS.NET 2008 and will cause issues so it is not surprising that it does not work.

I will try XI R2 and if issues I will try CR 2008.

Thank you both for your help.

Hi Team,

I loaded the CR 11.5.0x or 11.5.3700.0 redist and everything is working fine.

Thanks all,

Edgar

Ok. A bit of a warning to anyone trying to follow in Edgar's footsteps.

This is a dangerous path to take (working with CR XI r2 and .NET 2008). I've seen cases where this works for a time, then mysteriously stops working. Works on one box, not on another. Also be aware that should you need to create a phone case, you will not be able to with this set up (E.g.; unsupported). If you find something in this environment that you suspect is a CR bug, it will not be escalated to R&D for a fix.

So, I'm not trying to do a sales job here, just throwing out a warning. Due diligence and all that, to be technical about it...
