Description:
Patch ID: 37288529
When a report that is based on a Native XML driver contains HTTP parameters, and is viewed in Crystal Enterprise 10, the PageServer displays
an error in the Event Viewer. The error message reads "Information is needed before this report can be processed." This problem happens even
though the report can be successfully viewed.
New Behavior:
To resolve this problem, the PageServer no longer displays the error message.
Report processing

Patch ID: 36660845
When users export a report to HTML or preview a report in the DHTML viewer (including the Interactive/Advanced viewer), content that is
formatted with HTML syntax fails to be interpreted as valid HTML. Instead, the content is interpreted as plain text.
The ability to export reports to HTML existed in earlier versions of Crystal Reports, but was removed for security reasons.
New Behavior:
The functionality to export and view field objects as HTML can be configured through the registry in Crystal Reports and Crystal Enterprise
version 9.0 and 10.0. Note that this functionality is only for field objects (for example: database fields, formula fields, and so on), not text
objects.
The registry information is as follows:
To enable HTML interpretation of field objects in the DHTML viewer (and Interactive viewer) in Crystal Enterprise 9.0, set the following subkey
to a value of "No":
[HKLM\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Report App\Viewer\EncodeHTMLForSingleLineFieldObjects]. The default value is "Yes".
To enable HTML interpretation of field objects when exporting to HTML format from Crystal Reports 9.0, set the following subkey to a value of
"no" (case-sensitive):
[HKLM\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal Reports\Export\HTML\EncodeHTMLForSingleLineFieldObjects]. The default value is "Yes".
To enable HTML interpretation of field objects in the DHTML viewer (and Interactive viewer) in Crystal Enterprise 10.0, set the following
subkey to a value of "No":
[HKLM\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Components\DHTMLViewer\EncodeHTMLForSingleLineFieldObjects]. The default value is "Yes".
To enable HTML interpretation of field objects when exporting to HTML format from Crystal Reports 10.0, set the following subkey to a value
of "no" (case-sensitive):
[HKLM\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Crystal Reports\Export\HTML\EncodeHTMLForSingleLineFieldObjects]. The default value is "Yes".
Known Limitations:
In Crystal Reports 8, users can embed script tags and other HTML tags into reports, to create DHTML items in the output of the DHTML
Viewer. For added security, the default behavior in Crystal Reports 9.0 and 10.0 is to convert HTML to safe text. Users can, at their own risk,
enable the registry keys for HTML embedding behavior. For more information about the security implications that are involved, see
