    Posted: 26 Sep 2013 at 1:57am

I have a set of around 40-50 reports, where almost all the reports are having the company logo embeded. Recently i was told to change the logo in which i had to manually go to each report and change the logo. So now i was looking for a wayout so that i dont have to change the logo manually in each and every reports. I read a solution where i was suggested to create a wordfile, embede the image, and then use this word file as the OLE object. So that next time i just change the logo in the word file and it reflects everywhere. But this isnt working. When i change the logo in the wordfile at the shared location, it does reflects in the reports. Am i missing anything on this? Can anyone please suggest.

HI

Do you have Business Objects / Crystal Enterprise ? If so, you can export logo to repository and the same can be inserted into the report.

If there is a chagne in Logo, then you can overwrite old logo with new one. This will reflect new logo in your reports.

--
If you are working on stand alone system then do the following :

Keep your image in a shared location with the name logo.gif and insert a sample picture into your report. Now right click on the image and go in 'Format Graphic'--Picture Tab--Graphic Location-- here you mention the location of your logo ie. "c:\images\logo.gif"

If there is a change in logo then simply go in shared location and change the image.

Note : make sure that your new image / image name shoud always image.gif.



Thanks,
Sastry
