.Net Viewer 13 sp 12 - Issues with large reports (32767+ pages)

[former_member1105868]

I have encountered two issues when working with reports in the 32 bit .Net viewer with a page count over 32767.

• Clicking on an item in the group tree will only take me up to page 32767
• Searching for a value will not look on pages after page 32767

Are there any fixes in the pipeline or a work-around that does not involve splitting the data into smaller chunks?

Crystal Reports was never designed to be a database archiving tool. There are better utilities for that. E.g.; what is the purpose of a 32K+ report?

Only option I have for you is to use the selection formula, filter the report so it is under the limit. And then do another selection to complete the total. E.g.; 2+ reports to archive your db data.

This report is a series of Real Estate Invoices that are mailed out to tax payers on an bi-annual basis.

Typically the batch bill runs have a page count between 80-500k pages.

This is our first client using the .Net Report Viewer, all other clients are currently using the RDC XI viewer without these problems.

Thanks,

Justin

Hi Justin,

You are correct, seems you may have found one of the old 16 bit limitations.

I'll have to ping DEV and ask them to increase this number. Or find out why it may be a limit.

Thanks

Don

PS - I was the one who suggested to Ludek to say CR is not an archiving tool...

Even still do they really need that much data in one report?
