We use URL Reporting on the web a lot for our reporting.

 

We use CEv10 unmanaged URL Reporting, i.e. not with viewrpt.cwr? But with report file directly similarly as follows:

 

http://server/reportfolder/reportname.rpt?apsuser=username&;apspassword=userpasswd&apsauthtype=Enterprise&DBuser0=dbusername&password0=DBpasswd&;prompt0=200505&prompt1=0001&prompt2=1&;init=actx

 

 

Question if we Continue to use CEv10

Our Company just purchased “Crystal Reports 2008 Visual Advantage (XCelsius)” I was wondering if I can create reports with XCelsius and view them in our current CEv10 or will I have to upgrade to Crystal Server 2008.

 

 

Question if we Upgrading to Server 2008

Will this URL reporting functionality still work as is in Crystal Reports 2008?

 

Please help.

Thanks

You will have to upgrade - the viewer in CE10 will not work with the new features in Crystal 2008.
 
URL reporting should be similar, but may not be exactly the same.

Is there any way to continue to use CE10 and somehow have the users download a different plugin viewer that will allow them to view crystal 2008 reports that have flash plugins?
