What is the maximum number of columns that can be displayed in crystal report?
[Including all formats like landscape, A4....etc]
As far as I know there is no theoretical limit to the number of columns you can have in a Crystal Report. You can alter the paper size, (depending upon the printer driver,) to something ridiculously large.
For example, the Cute PDF driver I have installed allows a page of 24 x 108 inches - over 2.7 meters. You can also shrink the column to virtually no width. I have done this when exporting data to a CSV file via a report, with no requirement for the report to be printed, with around 40 different columns of data in a line.

i have a crystal report document, where i made 4 summaries, 3 of them works fine but the 4th just displays a series of sharps (########).
This problem will come when space is not sufficient for the field to display the number. Increase the size of the filed that displays the number.
Friends,
This is the formula in the crystal reports 9.
cdbl({nrconsolidated.collamt})/100000.000
nrconsolidated table is having 9 records.
in that one record's collamt value is 154250.
but in the crystal reports output its showing as 1.543 instead of 1.542.
i want only 3 decimal points.i dont know where the mistake is coming from?
in the crystal reports, i clicked on that collamt field and checked the data by seeing the browseData option...its showing as 154250.
how can i solve this issue? its showing the correct value in 4 decimal points but i want only 3 decimal points.
thanks
The below code will truncate the result after the calculation has been performed, and output it to 3 decimal places. This works for Crystal Syntax and should for Basic as well - I believe it is common amongst both.
truncate(cdbl({nrconsolidated.collamt})/100000.000,3)
On the field set the decimals 1.000 and rounding 0.001 will display what you want.
Anybody ever tried to use crystal reports to generate envelope labels? The requirement is to print 8 labels (2 columns, 4 rows) on a letter size paper. How can I control the repeat flow to meet such requirement?
Thanks

You can format the Details section to have multiple columns. Size the columns and spacing between them to accommodate the label.
I need to create a report where each page contains four columns. I initialy had them as subreports but I guess they dont need to be.
How do I make it so each entry in a supplied dataset is represented as a column? Say if I had a dataset with 6 rows, the report would span two pages with four columns on the first and two on the second.
In other horizontal reports I had one dataset row represented as a row in the detail section of the report. But now I need four dataset set rows for each detail section, as the detail section contains four columns.
Guess what I really am looking for is a vertical detail section, sort of, while retaining the rest of the report horizontal.
I suggest using a Crosstab - these are the Crystal equivalent of pivot tables in Excel, or matrixes in SSRS.
I have a series of very small positive and negative values stored in oracle which I am attempting to display in crystal reports. Crystal is displaying all the values as 0. However if I turn the max decimal places on I will see some values as 0.00...00XY.
I would like these values simply displayed as scientific notation with something like 1.2E-12.
It seems crystal automatically converts very large values to SN, but not very small values?
This is not possible so I went and created a view instead for each needed table. Kind of a dumb solution, but it seems the only way possible.
