Crystal Reports keeps prompting for Parameter
c#, c#-4.0, crystal-reports, crystal-reports-2010, vb.net
Solution
Finally found the solution. It doesn't prompt if we set the `DataSource` after the `ParameterValue`.
So anyone of those will work if we put them in this order:
// First, call SetParameterValue. Then, call SetDatasource.
CustomerReport1.SetParameterValue("PathLocation", Location.Text);
CustomerReport1.Database.Tables[0].SetDatasource(this.dataset);
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = CustomerReport1;
Thank you all.
Problem
I am having a terrible problem with crystal report 2010 for .net 4.0 (I am using the fixed 13.0.1 version but 13.0.4 is released). No matter which way I try, I am always getting a prompting dialogue box to input my one parameter value the first time. ``` CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = CustomerReport1; CustomerReport1.Database.Tables[0].SetDatasource ( this.dataset); CustomerReport1.SetParameterValue("PathLocation", Location.Text); CustomerReport1.Parameter_PathLocation.CurrentValues.Add(Location.Text) // to be safe using CS 2010 for .net 4 CrystalReportViewer1.ReuseReportParametersOnRefresh = true; // to prevent from showing again and again. ``` I also tried this: ``` CustomerReport1.Database.Tables[0].SetDatasource ( this.dataset); CustomerReport1.SetParameterValue("PathLocation", Location.Text); CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = CustomerReport1; ``` And this: ``` CustomerReport1.Database.Tables[0].SetDatasource ( this.dataset); CustomerReport1.Parameter_PathLocation.CurrentValues.Add(Location.Text) CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = CustomerReport1; // the parameter in the report has Optional Parameter = false, Static , Multiple Value = false . ``` Can anyone please help? I am getting frustrated with this. It worked in previous versions, but now I am getting this prompt box. Thank you.
