Hi,
I use Crystal 11 ActiveX Designer & runtime library to create and export reports to disk. In the Designer I can open a report and export it as XML to disk. When I use the runtime library though and want to do so I get the error:
-2147190908, Failed to export the report
I can export XLS, PDF, CSV without any problems. I have already checked if the u2fxml.dll is installed corrctly and it is (I had a similiar problem with CSV recently where u2ftext.dll was missing). So on the system all requirement are fullfiled to export (as seen in the designer) but the runtime library just can't do it.
I'm using VB 6.0 SP5.
I would be grateful to get some feedback.
Thank you
Good info on the exact version of VB and SP for it. But what's the exact version of the craxdrt.dll you are using? Or the crw32.exe? What SP for CR are you on?

Ok, let's do a few steps here and see if we can get this running. Since you have CR XI (r1), you have the option of upgrading to CR XI r2 for free. I would recommend doing this, but if you are too far in your development cycle that may not be an option - but let me know if it is. If you must stay on XI r1.
1) Download SP 4:

2) After you apply the SP 4, make sure this exports from the CR designer
3) Test to see if this exports from the app on your development box
4) Make sure your code is something like this:
Set rep = appl.OpenReport("C:\temp\testing.rpt";, 1)
rep.ExportOptions.XMLFileName = "c:\temp\testing.xml";
rep.ExportOptions.DestinationType = crEDTDiskFile
rep.ExportOptions.FormatType = crEFTXML
rep.Export False
If all of the above checks out, use the msm from [here| to install the runtime to any client computer:

Hi Ludek,
wow this really helped me a bit. Now I can export XML files!
The sensible point was that I used the property "ExportOptions.DiskFileName" for ALL export formats. It worked so far for xls, pdf, csv, ...
DidnÄt know I have to use the other one. And the error messages does not help a lot if you allow me to say that
Anyway, the thing now is that Crystal seems to replace spaces in my filename with _. That's a problem because after the export I go on working with this name. Why does it do that when exporting XML? Can I adjust this somehow or at least find out to what it has been changed?
Thank you a lot
Matthias
