Hello,

Here is a summary of my Dev Environment:
I use Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite SP1 with Crystal Report XI SP1 on
a Windows XP SP2 development workstation. I also use SQL Server 2000
SP4.

And here a summary of what is the problem:
I have a web application that has a web form into which I read data
from a SQL database and load them in a ReportDocument of Crystal
Report.

The objective of this web form is to export the data into different
file format : .PDF, .DOC, .XLS.

I have no problem exporting the data to a PDF or DOC file. Neither I
get problem with the XLS (DATA ONLY). The files are created and I can
work with them.

The Error:
My problem is when I try to Export to a Excel file. I get the
following error :

/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/

Looking for a solution:
The problem happens when this line is hit:

objReport.ExportToHttpResponse(ExportFormatType.Excel, Response, True,
sFileName)


I don't get why the three other export works and this one does not. It
is the same code safe from the line above where the parameters differ
for the obvious reasons.

Can someone explain me how to export to a Excel File please ?

I am also facing the same error.... As per diffrent findings on net, i
think its error of framework. It can be only solved if you redsign your
report

I thought about it over and over and I might have found some reasons
why it does not work:

1. There are some formula fields in my report where I concatenate
fields together (ie: {Table1.field1} + ' ' + {Table1.field2} + ' ' +
{Table1.field3} + ' ' + {Table1.field4}) whose fields are large
varchar fields (varchar(250) and over);

2. Some of these fields are treated like HTML (see Format object
contextual menu, paragraph tab, Text interpretation);
{Table2.field1} + '<br />' + {Table2.field2}

3. There might be a limitation on Excel cell length (no more than 255
characters per example) (?);

4. The Detail section is composed of 4 or 5 DetailSections (Details
A,B,C,D,E...) (?)

I am only guessing here, hoping someone has answers to my questions.

Thanks a lot Amit Modi for your reply.
