    What does this error mean?

    I got an error message when I run the program below:
    VB Code:
    1. CustomerRPT.ExportOptions.DestinationType = crEDTDiskFile
    2.         CustomerRPT.ExportOptions.DiskFileName = "C:\CustomerInfo.rtf"
    3.         CustomerRPT.ExportOptions.FormatType = crEFTExactRichText
    4.         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.

    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.
