I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to get some data to come across

  • 0

I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to get some data to come across to my report. I first used the Microsoft Report viewer, but after trying Crystal Reports – I like the way Crystal Reporting is set up.

The only problem is I can’t get a single peice of data to come across from my sql ce DB. I’ve got a dataset I used as the datasource, thats linked to the proper db – yet nothing comes across.

I even used the report wizard to start off with, specifying the dataset, and report options – called the form – and nothing – only static report headers. Am I missing something here?

    Assuming you haven’t solved this yourself in the 2 days since you first posted:

    1. Do you get the same problem when you connect to another datasource? What if you make a little dummy table in an MS Access db and connect to it?

    2. Data won’t display in Crystal until you have at least 1 db field in the Details section. Try adding 1 manually and then go to Preview.

    3. In your Field Explorer, go to your Database Fields, right click on a field and Browse. Does any data show up or is the little popup window blank?
