Former Member

HI,

Any body please help me.. My application currently using Segate crystal report, we need to upgrade it to SAP Crystal reports 2011

I used CRPE API for Visual C++. But all functions in CRPE header files are in ASCII model. I provided the DLL files which we are using below

CRPE32.DLL

CRPAIG32.DLL

CREXPD32.DLL

CRWRAP32.DLL

CRXLAT32.DLL

1) What are the DLL files that needs to be taken care for this upgrade other than the above ones?

2) Any precautionary steps or actions that needs to be taken ?

3) Will there be practical difficulties in implementing this upgrade ?

4) If possible, please provide the step by step process or any User Guide for this upgrade.

Regards,

Esha Abdullah M

I have some very bad news for you;

1) You will not be able to upgrade this application.

2) The Print Angine APIs were retired in version 10 of Crystal Reports.

3) Crystal Reports 2011 does not come with any SDK.

Your only option is to download [CRVS2010|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/crystalreports-dotnet] and use the SDK there - in VS2010 only.

Install CRVS2010

Use the CR SDK for .NET

Re-write the app in VS2010

In CR v7 you were using the CR WIN APIs. This SDK was retired in version 10 of Crystal Reports.

CR 2011 does not include any SDK.

Only option for you is to obtain VS2010, then download CRVS2010 and use the CR SDK for VS .NET2010.

Alternatively, CR2008 supports .NET2008 and .NET2005 and you may also be able to sue the Java SDK.

You can not upgrade your app to CR 2011. You must rewrite your app using the CR SDK for .NET.

If you need more clarification I'd suggest creating a phone case here:
