Moreover, when I try to export from my code, I get an error dialog which says "Invalid export DLL or export format". The line of code I'm using
Crystal Reports Export To Csv Not Working
to export is: reportDocument.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.CharacterSeparatedValues, saveFileDialog.FileName);
I hear talk about export to CSV, but I haven't found any code samples on how to implement this functionality. The CR XI .NET SDK documentation says that export to CSV is possible, but doesn't show any API sample code. Export to Excel, PDF, Word, and rtf all work fine from within my crystal reports export csv column headings code. I'veupgradedto XI Release 2. The Crystal assembly references in my project show version numbers 11.5.3700 and 11.5.3300. Yet it seems I don't have the latest since there is no CSV item in the Crystal Report Viewer export list and from what I'm reading on this forum, there should be. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

The input may not be in crystal report this encoding, or may not contain valid Unicode (UTF-16) characters. Cause This problem occurs in certain situations when a field in your report contains text greater than 255 characters in length. Background Report Commander generally uses Crystal Reports runtime components to perform data exports, producing the same output that the Crystal Reports designer produces. However, the native Crystal Reports CSV export crystal report export has two significant limitations: It adds all fields from the report and page headers to the beginning of every record that it exports. It does not provide an option to include the field names in the first row of the export. To circumvent these limitations, Report Commander does not use the Crystal Reports native CSV export. Instead, it uses the Crystal Reports runtime components to export the report to a temporary Excel file, then reads this file and converts it to the final CSV file. To read the temporary Excel file, Report Commander uses the Microsoft Jet ODBC driver. This database driver "guesses" the data type for each field in the file by examining a few rows (8, by default) at the beginning of the file. If, for a given field, none of the records that the driver examines during this phase has more than 255 characters, the driver assigns this field a data type that is limited to 255 characters. If, later in the file, there is a record where this field contains more than 255 characters,
