    Posted: 06 May 2015 at 6:33am
I am retrieving a path from my database. The user selects an image from a folder and the path is stored in the database. However, when I run the report from a deployed version, the image does not display. It shows my default image. Does crystal need certain permission to access these files? But the images appear in my development mode. Any suggestions would be grateful. I am using crystal XI for visual studio. Need help ASAP.

First off, what version of Visual Studio are you using?

What type of application is this - WinForms or Web? If it's web, then you may want to set up a virtual folder in IIS that points to where the images are located. The account that is running IIS would then need access to that location.

This is a windows application. I am retrieving the path from the database. I did seem to get it working for my local machine, but not from a shared or mapped drive.

Have you tried using a UNC path instead of a mapped drive letter?
