Can you try adding 64 bit odbc dsn entry for the access database? Not sure what office version you are running 32 bit or 64 bit?
Try crystal run time either 32 bit or 64 bit.
Not sure if you can install 32 bit .net 4.5
Thats my problem. Microsoft did away with the 64 odbc access driver that suppoted dbf. I can only run it in 32 bit.
Can you save access as Excel?
no I am interfacing to 40+ dbf files. They have indexes so converting to Excel would break the Crystal Reports because they have links. Is there any way to run the older CREXPORTER (which is 32 bit) on a 64 bit machine?
What you are asking should be possible.
Did you install the 32bit crystal runtimes? There should be no issues installing the 32bit crystal runtimes on a 64bit windows 10 OS. If you are having problems installing the 32bit crystal runtime try uninstalling the 64 bit runtime first. Also make sure you are running the latest version. 13.22 is the latest at the time of this writing. You can download the latest crystal rutimes here http://www.crystalreports.com/crystal-reports-visual-studio/
Are you using the 32bit version of the ninja app? You can get it here https://github.com/mhertzfeld/CrystalReportsNinja/tree/master/Deployment/32-bit
I have old version of crexport that works on .net 4.0 and is 32-bit. Back when rainforestnet.com just had the crexport utility. Do you want that version? Maybe that will help you?
Oh I see he still has the old repo: https://github.com/rainforestnet/Crystal-Reports-Exporter/tree/master/crexport/bin/Release
That binary may be useful for you. .NET 4.0 is required. If you can't find it, let me know I have a folder with all the setup files.
Tried mhertzfeld solution. Installed Crystal Runtime 32 bit and his 32 bit version of the Ninja App. Sadly, it did not work. Got an exception: Object Reference not set to an instance of an object. Any idea what would cause this? Can't use the old crexport. Have to run with .NET 4.5.....
The error is probably related to a parameter the app is expecting but was not passed. A bug I am sure.
If you send me a copy of what your passing into the app I will try to replicate and fix the issue.
I am running on Windows 10 64 bit. I have to use a 32 bit ODBC connection because I am connecting my Crystal Report to a DBF file. I tried using the 64 bit Crystal runtime but it fails to load database. When I try to run 32 bit, I get the message unable to find file specified. Is there any way to run this on a 64 bit machine but run it 32 bit due to my ODBC driver limitations?
