[icf-dev] Print preview??

You have to have the right versions of the DLL's, etc. loaded for it to

work. I think it requires DAO 3.5 and when it launches crystal uses the

V7 runtime I think. In V2 the calls have been changed to use the

registry so we pick up the actual version you are using.

The called used to check if the print preview button should be active is

in browser.p - getPrintPreviewActive.

The code for the crystal report engine is in af/sup2/afcrplip2p.p and

the setup of the print engine to use is in the procedure plipsetup.

Subject: Print preview??

I'm a bit confused.

It was my understanding that the "Print Preview" functionality for

Dynamics

relied on Crystal Reports. If you have Crystal installed, then it was

active-- if not, it was disabled.

I just installed Crystal on my PC, re-started my PC to make sure the

.dll's

were all square, and the "Print Preview" icons are all still disabled.

I've got Crystal Reports 9, Developer edition.

Where did I go wrong? Did I mis-understand? Is there something else I

need to do to make it work?

I haven't connected Crystal to my database yet. That will be the next

thing I tackle (trying to get the configuration straight). Is there a

good

doc on how to go about that?? I haven't stumbled across anything

particularly good about it yet.

Thanks--

James
