Pass sql image to Crystal ttx file

[Former Member]

I'm uisng CR 8.5 and XI both with ttx files and I have image stored in a sql db and I need to be able to print the image on a Crystal report.

I have modified the ttx file by adding a field with a data type of BLOB, then I change my sql stored proceduire to extract the image. I put the blob field in the report header and I don't see the image. I tired putting the blob field in the detail and I still don't see the image what do I need to do to get the image to print.

I have to use the ttx file unit I can convert the reports.

Thanks,

Hi DanPlo,

I don't recall CR ever supporting images in ttx files. Only option is to link the image to a picture file off a shared folder on the hard drive. We don't have any functionality to rebuild the image.

Thank you

Don
