Is it possible to link an image to a part number in E9.05.702A so that it can be pulled into a Crystal Report? We have thousands of unique parts and rely on a lot of custom reports which makes an image helpful. Right now, we have someone printing the reports as pdf’s and then adding images using a third party software.
Give me a shout and I can demo some solutions I use on site and you can perhaps see which solution might fit best for you and your application.
I’m not sure if Roberto was able to help, however, Crystal Reports allows you to replace an image location/URL at report runtime.
I’ve done what your asking in the past by have a place holder in the report which gets suppressed if there is no image URL/file path supplied. If the URL/file path supplied does exist then the image can be replaced/updated. The URL/file path can be held in a UD field on the part (for example) or you can retrieve the image location from the attachments function, however, the latter is a more complicated solution but may offer more flexibility and lower maintenance.
If you need any more help let me know.
Give me a shout totomorrow and I can discuss some options for you. I assume you can access myemail address or pm me.
Roberto.
