• Check Dependencies
Use this option to initiate the Dependency Checker. The option is
available for individual reports or for folders of reports. Crystal Reports
begins checking the report(s) immediately and displays the results in the
Dependency Checker. For more information, see “The Dependency
Checker” on page 112.
Shortcut Menus
You can right-click any item in the Workspace area of the Workbench to see a
shortcut menu. Many of the options that are available on the shortcut menu
are also available on the toolbar. This section describes only the additional
options that are not available on the toolbar.
• Publish to BusinessObjects Enterprise
Use this option to publish a folder of reports to BusinessObjects
Enterprise. You can publish your reports individually or as an object
package. (Objects packages can be scheduled in BusinessObjects
Enterprise as a single entity.) When you choose this option, the Publish
Object dialog box appears. For information about using this dialog box,
search the Crystal Reports online help for “Publish Object dialog box.”
• Remove
Use this option to remove a report, report package, or folder from the
Workspace area.
Note:
• You cannot undo this option.
• When you remove a folder, you remove all of the items in it at the
same time.
• Rename
Use this option to rename a folder in the Workspace area.
The Dependency Checker
The Dependency Checker appears when you check a report or project for
errors in the Workbench, or when you select the command on the Report
menu for a report that you have open in Crystal Reports. The Dependency
Checker registers several types of errors:
• Report part hyperlink errors
• Repository object errors
• Formula compilation errors
