Hi Claude,
Crystal is now a separate license, and comes with
it's own set of hurdles to overcome.
I've tried a number of methods for calling crystal
9 over the web, and eventually settled on a variant of the ASP samples they
provide. I couldn't get cfreport to work - I guess it should work, but I
couldn't call a simple example, let alone some of the more complex things I
wanted to do such as creating pdf or word directly, and passing in selection
criteria and parameter fields.
Crystal on a dedicated intranet box has been
excellent, but on a shared hosting environment is an
ongoing source of stress as far as stability goes.
Phil.

Subject: [cfaussie] Crystal Reports and
CFMX
According to to
Ben Forta Booking back in the cf 4.0 days Crystal reports viewer was
automatically installed as part of the basic cf server and hence did not
require the web server to separately install a version of crystal reports in
order to view crystal report files referenced in cfreport
tag.
Can someone please
clarify the situation with cf mx whether crystal report view is automatically
installed as part of the basic install of cf server or does the web server
require a separate installation of crystal reports in order to be able to view
the reports via cfreport.
My cf hosting
service has advised me that crystal reports needs to be installed separately
onto the server and they recommend that I use cfchart instead of cfreport.
However the main purpose is for me to generate management reports in
traditional table format and not to generate charts and graphs hence I suspect
cfchart would not be the solution
Kind
Regards
Claude
