With OLAP Intelligence, you can set the option to use either an ActiveX viewer or a DHTML viewer The ActiveX viewer requires Internet Explorer and will download ActiveX controls, which may not be permitted in some organizations for security reasons When you export data to Excel, if you have used the ActiveX viewer, the link to OLAP Intelligence remains so that you can further drill and slice and dice The DHTML viewer does not require any software or controls to be downloaded

When viewing a Crystal Reports document, choose the default viewer that is most compatible with your browser and the functionality you want All the viewers allow you to view, refresh, print, see the grouping tree, find, and export

The ActiveX viewer uses ActiveX controls and requires Internet Explorer as the browser If you use this as your viewer, you must ensure your browser security settings allow ActiveX controls to run In addition to the standard viewing capabilities, this viewer also allows you to hover over a column and then freeze the panes for scrolling The DHTML viewer is a zero-footprint viewer; no controls are downloaded The Advanced DHTML option is supported in more recent browser versions and provides slightly more functionality than the basic DHTML viewer Advanced DHTML includes an advanced Search panel that lets you interactively specify the search criteria, conditions, and results while viewing a Crystal Report The Java viewer requires that your browser use a Java Virtual Machine, similar to the Web Intelligence Java Report panel, and download a Java applet If you set the default viewer to DHTML, you also must specify how to print the Crystal Report, either by first converting to Adobe Acrobat or PDF format or by using the ActiveX printing control The ActiveX printing is faster but, again, requires the correct browser security settings to allow the ActiveX control Printing via Acrobat Reader requires that you have Acrobat Reader installed and is slower, as the report must first be converted to PDF When using the DHTML viewer, also set the resolution to either 96 dots per inch or 120 For wide reports, choose 96 to ensure the report fits within your browser screen This setting has no effect if you are using the Java or ActiveX viewer
