i am using crystal report in vb.net however every time i've create a new crystal report in my project solution the property of my crystal report is always set to 'Do not Copy'. My question is, is there any way that if i create a new crystal report the properties of it will always set to copy always so that it will lesser my time work.
if there is any step or strategy on how to do it please share it.
thanks in advance :)
i think that is the default value of crystal report every time you create it. i don't know if there is a solution but in my case i always click the properties of my crystal report file and change it to copy always.
i can suggest to your question is just patience.

I have 2 Settings in my.settings within my vb.net Project called
my.settings.company
my.settings.tel
and I would like these to be displayed at the top of my Crystal Report.
I tried using the Database Expert within my report and added the .NET Object "My.Settings" to the Report and then dragged the company and tel variables to my report, however this doesn't work at all.
Any help ???
The easiest and probably the right way is to define parameters and to set their values from your application
How to I assign dataset to the existing report?
I went a little bit other way around then you usually do it - first build RDLC and then got my dataset done, however now I'm clueless how to assign that dataset to my report. In properties window whatever I select Body, Report or Tablix - I can't find anything that would allow me to choose dataset.
There was this screen (wizard) with drop-down that allowed you to pick dataset, but in no way I can find it. Anyone can help how to trigger it again? Or help me to assign my dataset to report in any other way?
You need to open the Report Data properties Window.
With an RDLC report open press the Ctrl+Alt+D or select the menu View then ReportData
There you find the DataSet node where, a right click, opens the Add New Dataset wizard
I've got a report in vb.net 2010... It works fine, I've now added in some columns into the database and refersehed the datasources which the columns appear.
But when I go to build the code it reports that the fields don't exist within dataset1 which is really starting to annoy me now. I can't find where the dataset1 is to refresh the data.
Can somebody please advise?

I want to get a value from crystal report on double click on any column value in crystal.and then open a sub report based on this clicked value.. I am using Visual Studio2005 crystal report.. Is this possible with this version.
Please help if having any idea about this. I have tried a lot of things. But not getting any fruitful solution.

It is possible. You shall have to set the sub-report as an on-demand report.
