Parameter menu hidden

Hi,
When I navigate to a report, the parameter menu is hidden. I have to
click on the arrows in the menu to unhide them. This only happens on
deployed reports viewing through IE. The navigate action is set to use:
"Jump to report". I could use "Jump to URL" but don't want to hardcode
the full URL.
The VS dev environment shows the parameter menu like it should in the
preview pane.
Anyone know how what to change so the parameter list is not hidden in
IE.
Asim.Anyone? I'm thinkings its a configuration change somewhere.
Any help would be appreciated.

the report directly in IE, the parameter menu is NOT hidden. This only
happens when I use the Navigate function in a text box to go to another
report, that the whole parameter menu is hidden.

report. Ok so you want a drilldown report. infact the purpose of drilldown is
to go to other report directly without entering anything, that's why the
parameter is not visible.

Parameter Change and Report Clears

When I change the value of a parameter the report is cleared on a post back to the server and I have to click on the View Report button to see any results. Is there a way to either not post back to the server when the parameter is changed or automatically post back and retrieve the new results?

I found this link below here and it sounds like I am out of luck since both of my parameters are dates with functions to define them. I have tried changing their order with no luck.

Does anyone know if this is an issue without a work around?

Thanks!

Looks like I am out of luck.

Paginate VB options

I have a VB.NET 2005 program that on a click of a button exports my report to a text file. This works fine apart from one thing, i get a strange charactor every 60 lines. So i opened Crystal Deveolper and tried exporting from there and it gave me and option set number of lines per page and setting this to 0 switched off paginate, which removed the charactors.

My question is this how do i add the options for Charactors/Inch and Number of Lines per Page (setting this to 0 switches off paginate). Here is my code so far:-

Private Sub btnGenFile_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnGenFile.Click Dim

Exportpath As String Exportpath = "n:\Regatta Order Files\"
CrDiskfileDestinationoption = New DiskFileDestinationOptions
CrExportOption = CrReport.ExportOptions
CrDiskfileDestinationoption.DiskFileName = Exportpath + ("CHAN1" & sDate & ".txt")
With CrExportOption
.DestinationOptions = CrDiskfileDestinationoption
.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.Text
End With

Try CrReport.Export()
'MessageBox.Show("Exported to " & CrReport.ExportOptions.DestinationOptions.DiskFileName)
txtStatus.Text = "Text File has been created, you can now tranfer to Regatta"
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(Me, ex.Message, "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try

End Sub

I have XP Pro SP2
Visual Studio 2005
Crystal Reports Developer XI R2dump
