Setting Crystal Reports viewer options

Report viewer controls and functions, including

• Control toolbar
• Print Button
• Export Button
• Zoom Level
• Hyperlink target

may be customized on the Configuration Settings page under Administration. ReCrystallize Server provides 3 customizable sets of viewer options.

The default viewer settings, labeled V1 in Settings, with most report viewer controls and functions enabled will be used if no viewer selection is passed to the report or if

V=1

is passed on the URL or POSTed from a form.

ViewReport.aspx?reportName=sales.rpt

and

ViewReport.aspx?reportName=sales.rpt&V=1

are equivalent.

The second set of viewer settings is labeled V2 in Settings. The defaults for V2 enable most report viewer controls and functions except the print and export buttons. Any of the options may be customized to your requirements in Settings. To use the second set of viewer options, send

V=2

to the report, for example

ViewReport.aspx?reportName=sales.rpt&V=2

The third set of viewer settings, labeled V3 in Settings, removes most user controls and presents the report with a minimal user interface. This may be useful for public display on a large screen where no user interaction with the report is expected. As with the other two sets of viewer options, all the settings may be customized by changing options in Settings. To use the third set of viewer options send

V=3

to the report, for example

ViewReport.aspx?reportName=sales.rpt&V=3
