Get 16 powerful and easy-to-use tools to Edit, Analyze, Document, Modify, Migrate, and Convert Crystal Reports. Work on multiple reports simultaneously with ease. Compatible with Crystal Reports 9.
One of the standout features of rpt Inspector is its ability to work with multiple reports at the same time. By building an in-memory cross-reference object and property index for each open report, it allows you to quickly and easily select objects and view their properties.
Whether you're working with formulas, text, sections, parameters, or any other object type, selecting it will instantly reveal its relevant properties. And if you're selecting multiple objects from different reports, rpt Inspector will show you the properties they have in common.
In terms of file format support, rpt Inspector can read CR 5-9 file formats and write CR 9 file format. Other editions also support CR 8.5, CR 10, and CR XI. This makes it a versatile tool for working with Crystal Reports of various versions and formats.
Version 3.02:
o [Objects Pane - ALL TABS] - Fixed issue with Export to Excel in certain cases resulting in "#VALUE!" / invalid values in cells.
o [Wizards - Change data source / database] - Added support of DAO (Data Access Object) connectivity for Access and Excel to supported destinations. Listed in the wizard as "Access/Excel (DAO)" in the list of available destinations (on page 3 of the wizard).
o [TOOLS|OPTIONS - Misc] - Added option to "Use Schema Nodes in Database Wizard". Defaults to enabled. Necessary when working with destination connections which have same named tables in multiple schemas -- in which case you must select the schema name, not just the connection in the wizard.
o [Wizards - Change data source / database] - Added new child node to destination connection. If "Use Schema Nodes in Database Wizard" is enabled in "TOOLS|OPTIONS - Misc", and if the destination connection type supports schemas, then you'll see listed under the destination connection node (as a child node) the schema (on page 3 of the wizard). In which case you must now select the schema in the destination connection before the wizard will allow you to continue. However, if this option is disabled, it is enough to select the destination connection (as was the case in previous builds) before the wizard will allow you to continue.
o [Wizards - Change data source / database] - Fixed issue with File DSN for ODBC connection destination, not being saved properly.
o [File - OPEN] - Added option in "TOOLS|OPTIONS - File" an option to set the default Open dialog. The choices are "File System Dialog", "Folders Dialog". Defaults to "File System Dialog"
o [TOOLS|OPTIONS - Viewer] - Fixed issue where even though "Display Viewer on Startup" was off, viewer was still displayed.
o [Wizards - Change data source / database] - Fixed "Verify Database" appearing each time and requiring you to click on "OK" during processing.
o [Objects Pane - ALL TABS] - Fixed issue with improperly sorting date columns.
o [Objects Pane - ALL TABS] - Fixed checkbox selection on grouped rows. In certain cases, clicking the checkbox on some rows would not result in a selection.
o [File - SAVE] - Fixed issue in trial mode which would complain that the "SAVE LIMIT EXCEEDED", even if you've never saved before, and result in a non-save.
