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 causes an error invalid index after being opened and having "any" change applied and saved

Asked by mbarazi in Crystal Reports Software, VB Controls, Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

Tags: ,

I have a windows service written in vb.net 1.1 using vs 2003. I also have a crystal reports template version 8.0. I have recently been asked to modify this report by shifting a text object on the report about a centimeter over. I have done this and now the application throws an invalid index error on the following line of code :

.ReportObjects("TrayDisclaimerUpper").SetText(strUpper)

The code in the service simply refrences report objects by name and sets text string for those text objects on the report template. I have not changed anything on the report. On the developement machine I have both crystal 8 and crystal 10 installed. the exact error I get is:  
Run-time exception thrown : System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException - Invalid indexStart Free Trial
