Do you have hundreds or thousands of reports, some written years ago by employees no longer with your company?\u00a0\u00a0 We recently had a client with just such a situation, faced with a tight deadline and a need to identify and change every report with an old company logo to a new one.\u00a0\u00a0 Whether that is something you face because the marketing department has a brainstorm for a corporate branding change … or because of a merger & aquisition, this is a very common challenge.<\/p>\n

Find it EZ Code Search can search through an entire library of Crystal Reports files to identify all reports that contain images, pictures or blobs<\/strong>.\u00a0 Instantly and accurately.<\/p>\n

Simply configure your Crystal search to scan all RPT files with the following configuration settings:<\/p>\n

\n\"Crystal_Reports_Images\"<\/a>\n<\/div>\n

Then a use a “Boolean Type” search, with default options “search entire document” and no filters checked when you are searching for a specific image by name in the “Find:” expression.
\nHint:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 If you are unsure of the image name property that was set within your library of Crystal Reports, then perform a “Wildcard” search with expression “*” to return a list of all images within your entire set of Crystal Reports.<\/p>\n

If you want to filter your search results to a given section of your reports ( eg, exclude report footers matches ):<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Run your full Crystal Reports library search.<\/li>\n
  2. Use the File -> Save As -> Search Results Detail … to export & save your results to a spreadsheet document.<\/li>\n
  3. Sort the spreadsheet by “Group 2” column, which will include sections such as Page Header, Page Footer.<\/li>\n
  4. Delete all that are Page Footer matches.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You can then print, save and re-distribute your filtered results.<\/p>\n

    NOTE:\u00a0\u00a0 Our next release ( 4.5 ), scheduled to be published by end of February 2013, will include the ability to pre-filter Crystal Report sections to be searched ( Report Header\/Footer, Page Header\/Footer or Detail … within the Main Body and\/or Sub Reports ).<\/p>\n
