What does this error mean?

Printable View

I got an error message when I run the program below:
VB Code:
CustomerRPT.ExportOptions.DestinationType = crEDTDiskFile
        CustomerRPT.ExportOptions.DiskFileName = "C:\CustomerInfo.rtf"
        CustomerRPT.ExportOptions.FormatType = crEFTExactRichText
        CustomerRPT.Export (False)
Error message:
"Run-time error '-2147192184(80047288)': server has not been opened"

What does this error mean? What should I do?
Thanks!

Looks like maybe you are trying to operate on some sort of COM object without initializing in maybe (ie Set x as New whatever ... or CreateObject("Whatever") ). What program are you wanting to interface with?

This looks like the Exporting options of Crystal Reports. What exactly are you trying to do ?

Is it your local version of Crystal Reports or Enterprise Reporting Tool which runs on a server ?

This is the code I run almost everyday. It worked well and now suddenly has this error.
I just want to export a crystal report. Any idea? Thanks!

It is my local version of Crystal Report. Since it worked well before I have no idea why I got this error.

Is your SQL server running ? ( i presume you are using SQL server )

Yes, I think so. Because I have another similar program runs another report. It has no problem.
It is weird. I am going to remove the report and add it again.
Thanks.
