2527230 - Searching RPTR reports will only search the current page and generates and error

Symptom

In a simple Cortez app export a report to RPTR format:

private void ExportToRPTR_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

CrystalDecisions.Shared.DiskFileDestinationOptions diskOpts = CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportOptions.CreateDiskFileDestinationOptions(); CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportOptions exportOpts = new CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportOptions();

rptClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument(); exportOpts.ExportDestinationOptions = diskOpts; string outputFileName = "";

string MyRptName = rpt.FileName.ToString(); outputFileName = MyRptName.Substring(9, rpt.FileName.Length - 9);

outputFileName = outputFileName.Substring(0, (outputFileName.Length - 4)) + ".rptr";

try

{

if (File.Exists(outputFileName))

{ File.Delete(outputFileName);

}

try

{ diskOpts.DiskFileName = outputFileName; exportOpts.ExportDestinationType = CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportDestinationType.DiskFile; exportOpts.ExportFormatType = CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.RPTR;

rpt.Export(exportOpts);

MessageBox.Show("Export to RPTR Complete - Saved as " + outputFileName, "RAS", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);

rpt.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.RPTR, outputFileName);

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

btnSQLStatement.Text = "ERROR: " + ex.Message;

//return;

}

} catch (Exception ex)

{ btnSQLStatement.Text = "ERROR: " + ex.Message; //return;

}

}

Now open the saved report in a viewer and search on any text that is on multiple pages or any text that is not on the page.

An error is generated if the text is not found or the end of page has been reached
