Crystal Reports export from preview SL 2011 - fewer choices?

Crystal Reports export from preview SL 2011 - fewer choices?

This question is answered

We're in the process of testing SL 2011 and have noticed that in report preview that there are fewer options than in our SL 7.0 installation.

For example

  • we can't export to text or csv formats
  • can not set printer options 
This is true in two environments
  1. RDP to Server 2008 r2 64 bit
  2. local client on Windows 7 64 bit
Is it just us, or is this standard in SL 2011?

  • Hello Christopher,

    These are the standard options in SL 2011. Unfortunately, it was not due to differences between the version of SL, but rather due to differences between the versions of Crystal. At this time, it would be up to Crystal Reports to reintroduce the features and we do not have any information as to whether this will be addressed in any future releases of Crystal.

    I apologize for the inconvenience. Let me know if you have any further questions.
