Hi all,

This is my first try to run a Crystal Report from an Active Link. The AR Server version is 6.0 and the report was generated with Crystal Professionnal V9.2.2.634.

The result window start to open and I get the message "Erreur Crystal Report" / Error in file c:\temp\Report1.rpt: Query Engine Error.

I don't know what is wrong and how I could debug this problem. Could you help me ?

The report run fine when it's started from CR !

Best regards and excuse my english...

Nobody can help me ?

You won't get much help here at all. There seems to be a lack of knowledgeable participants.

I don't believe that is true. However, most folks who would be able to answer your question participate on the arslist (http://www.arslist.org). I do have quite a few people who visit this site.... however, most of them are looking something up in the arslist archives. Some stop in these forums and take the time to answer questions here as well as on the arslist... but not always.

in any case, how did you attach the report to the active link? Is it in a macro? are you using the Report form? How is your query structured?

Here is how I do it using User tool 5.1, CR 8.5. (I had to install Crystal Reports Compiler to create a compiled executable). My network is also has a Netware Server on it so all of my ARS users have a mapped "T" drive. In that "T" drive I have all my compiled crystal reports in subfolders. In my workflow, I have an active link where a user clicks a button & the report runs. The active link is just a "Run Process" and it looks like: "T:\reportnamefolder\report.exe"

So, if you had a CR called "MonthlyIncome.rpt", & you saved it to a subfolder on the T drive called "Monthly Income", your Run Process line would be:

T:\Monthly Income\monthlyincome.exe

Dont forget to fill in your users ODBC driver logon parameters on each workstation. (THis is what I had to do).
