Hello TMS Users, I have asked out support group to look into the Crystal Reports 8.5 (on Windows XP) problems you are reporting. I wanted to let you know that the next version of TMS, due to be released this summer, will include support for Crystal Reports 11.

XP and CR 8.5 are not fully compatible. IT ran some fixes, so we can run reports in TMS but now we're having a problem saving/editing reports on XP machines. We get the error message "The Handle is Invalid" every time we try to save. We're working with IT to find a better solution. Will let you know what we come up with. > >Chrisy > > >Chrisy Ledakis >Collections Information Technology Manager Brooklyn Children's Museum >145 Brooklyn Avenue >Brooklyn, NY 11213 >718-735-4400 (ext. 173) >718-735-5664 (fax) >www.brooklynkids.org/emuseum > >-----Original Message----- >From: Choi, Jennie [mailto:[log in to unmask]] >Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 8:40 AM >To: [log in to unmask] >Subject: TMS and Crystal 8.5 > > >Has anyone had any problems running reports from XP machines? We recently had a problem with XP machines not being able to run reports at all. The "Error in Retrieving Report" message came up. We had to manually reinstall TMS, which fixed the problem. Our IT department is worried about compatibility components with Crystal 8.5, especially since the version is no longer supported by Seagate, and is pressuring us to upgrade. But since TMS 9.2 is not compatible with any higher Crystal versions our hands our tied. > >Has anyone else had similar experiences? > >Thanks >Jennie Choi >Collections Management >The Metropolitan Museum of Art > >
