How to disable export to crystal reports format option

Is there a way change the default when using the Export option? We don’t users to accidentally select the Crystal Reports option. We would prefer to have PDF or Excel as the default in the drop down.

Is this possible without adding VB code to the RPT file?

how are you letting the user consume the report? infoview? If so, using cmc you should be able to set the deafult report out put, pdf etc…

Yes, InfoView. The output has to be Crystal in order to have the export button. Once they click the export button, the default is always Crystal. I want to change it to Excel.

I dont think you can change the “order” of the options via cmc, you can assign a default out put everytime the user opens that report. However, maybe the one of the server root file can be altered to give you that option. Not sure never tried. I would ask to move this to the CR or CMC section where someone else maybe able to help you
