The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

crystal reports export to text file

Asked by baldwin_it in Crystal Reports Software

Tags: crystal reports, export, text

I have a Crystal report that I have created to export data that we can send to our imaging company and I am having trouble getting it to work correctly. When i run the report it looks just like I want it. Then I try to export it. I select File/Export/Export Report from the menu. Then I select Text(TXT) as the format and hit OK. I have my characters per inch set at 10 and my Number of lines per page set at 75 and then hit OK. I tell it where to save and everything seems to export ok. When I open the text file at first glance it is ok, but when i look at the data I see things like my Page footer totals that should show at the end of each order are not always there. Sometimes they are on the first page of an order. Also the page numbers are not correct. I have the page number start over on each order so it will show page 1 on the first page of a new order and on the screen it looks fine, but after exporting it is wrong. Most of the time a new order will start with page 2 instead of page 1. Also some of the page numbers are repeated. Example: I may see a page 1,2,3.. then 5,6,6,7,8... This also makes no sense as on the screen it again looks just fine. I am not sure what to do about this. I have tried changing many different options and none of them seem to do anything. When I try exporting to a RTF this works just fine and the data is all there and page numbers are correct. What could I possibly be doing wrong? Oh, btw I have Crystal v11.
