For more than three years we have been researching and using Crystal Reports® (CR) with the GoldMine® (GM) program. We now call this the “Crystalogy™ of GoldMine”: the study of Crystal Reports in relation to GoldMine.
Myths -- During our initial customer interviews regarding the interrelation of Crystal Reports and GoldMine, we received some interesting reactions:
- "It’s impossible to run the Crystal reports from the GM menu."
- "You must compile the Crystal report for it to generate the data properly.”
These CrystIQ™ book prove that these beliefs are outdated. It documents everything you need to know in order to use Crystal Reports with GoldMine.
Facts -- Save yourself hours of research and frustrating “trial and error” sessions by going right to the source: these step by step guides to setting up the Crystal Reports portion of your GoldMine system. Large screen shots explain how, using ODBC and runtime files, reports can generate from any user’s workstation, whether in-house or remote (without the Crystal Reports design program).

Crystal & GoldMine System Administration
v9 for GoldMine Corporate Edition
Crystal Reports v9 has been in the marketplace for a few years. However, it has not been utilized by a large number of programs. FrontRange has taken the step to integrate this version into their GoldMine program (and HEAT). CCS spent many hours researching the ins and outs of the CR v9 program and how it relates to the GoldMine database. We found, for example, that it is not compatible with the dBase version.
Other important pieces of information have also been uncovered. These are covered in this book. We are now distributing our knowledge via the "Crystalogy™ of GoldMine: the study of Crystal Reports in relation to GoldMine".
