V8x Check Form Blank Title 56054

We are implementing with 8.03 and I found an Auto-Print Rule in the
Data Definition screen. However, it is greyed out when I select
APCheck.rpt. If I make a new rule I can access it. Is anybody using
this feature? The help for this is non-existant and I am wondering
if its new and not ready for prime time....

Does anyone have a Crystal check form that has the Check in the middle
of the page and a stub on top and a duplicate stub on bottom? If so,
would you mind sharing? I want to use this type of check as opposed to
the standard stub on top check on bottom form that is used as the
standard Vantage form.



Thanks

We do, but it limits us to 14 line expense items per page. Other than
that it works well.

Can I assume that you want the middle stub so you have a copy to keep with
your records? If so, we took a different tack. We created a second check
"image" with "Not negotiable" all over the darn thing. After we print the
regular checks, we reprint them with our "check copy" version. This has
several benefits:

1.) You're not limiting the number of lines per check

2.) No bursting

3.) You can add other information to the copy that doesn't appear on the
check.

The only draw-back is getting Vantage to automagically print the second copy.

Nice, I like that solution.



I wonder if there is a way to use the Label Print Control functionality
to automagically print the second copy.



And yes it is for our records copy, which I really don't completely
understand why we need the a printed second copy. Isn't the db based
copy sufficient?

Mark,

How do you get Vantage to print the second copy? I have a printer
with the blank checks in one drawer and yellow paper in the other
drawer.

I set up one like that... the check printing company had them available with the 2nd copy already interleaved, so you just stuffed the whole ream in one drawer. It really wasn't all that expensive -- less then 20 cents per check iirc.
I did a little hack on the print server to modify the PCL code on the fly to print 2 copies (it was an old, cheap and not too smart HP) but most the new HPs let you configure for multiple copies in their regular setup.

Currently, we just open up the Crystal Designer and browse to the XML file in
the MfgSysData\Reports\<username> and print from there. I'm sure there's a way
to call a Crystal Report from .Net but I haven't had time to figure it out
just yet. Probably something along the lines of

objReportDocument = New CrystalReport()
objReportDocument.SetDataSource(dataSet)
CrystalReportViewer.ReportSource = crReportDocument

Where you load dataset from the ADO.XML datafile. Maybe someone can fill in
the gaps and we can assign it to a button on the form.
