I am not able to see any image on Crystal Report at Run time.
So how can I load any image which is saved in local disk so
that it can be viewed at Runtime in Crystal reports?

Answer Posted / vishu

try {
// here i have define a simple datatable inwhich
image will recide
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
// object of data row
DataRow drow;
// add the column in table to store the image of
Byte array type
dt.Columns.Add("Image", System.Type.GetType
("System.Byte[]"));
drow = dt.NewRow;
// define the filestream object to read the image
FileStream fs;
// define te binary reader to read the bytes of
image
BinaryReader br;
// check the existance of image
if (File.Exists
(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "10157.Jpg")) {
// open image in file stream
fs = new FileStream
(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "10157.Jpg",
FileMode.Open);
}
else {
// if phot does not exist show the nophoto.jpg
file
fs = new FileStream
(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "NoPhoto.jpg",
FileMode.Open);
}
// initialise the binary reader from file
streamobject
br = new BinaryReader(fs);
// define the byte array of filelength
byte[] imgbyte = new byte[fs.Length + 1];
// read the bytes from the binary reader
imgbyte = br.ReadBytes(Convert.ToInt32
((fs.Length)));
drow(0) = imgbyte;
// add the image in bytearray
dt.Rows.Add(drow);
// add row into the datatable
br.Close();
// close the binary reader
fs.Close();
// close the file stream
CrystalReport1 rptobj = new CrystalReport1();
// object of crystal report
rptobj.SetDataSource(dt);
// set the datasource of crystalreport object
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rptobj;
//set the report source
}
catch (Exception ex) {
// error handling
Interaction.MsgBox("Missing 10157.jpg or
nophoto.jpg in application folder");
}

Kindly Help for this Below Scenario, I am going to implement Power BI into our internal software. I’m familiar with the fact that each user can pay $9.99 a month to build and view reports but what I need to know is how can we embed Power BI into our application so that any users that log into our application can see the reports without the monthly fee. I’ve researched enough that it can be done. What I am not familiar with is how to do it or the pricing of embedding it into an application. I think they do pricing on how many renders you do or something. Would you be able to look into how we could embed it into our software and the cost?
