Hi Jayakumar,

Could you please tell me more details about the network folder?In ftp folder or the share folder?

Could you please post the network folder file path?

If you could post more details information, it will be more easily for us to find the solution.

Did you try like this

using System;using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;

// On the page load/Button click

ReportDocument reportDocument = new ReportDocument();       
string networkPath = "\\Networkpath\\CrystalReport.rpt";                
reportDocument.Load(networkPath );  
crystalReportViewer.ReportSource = reportDocument;

Dear Brando, Thanks for your reply I'm accessing from Network folder.

Dear Cnranasinghe, Thanks I acheived by using "Server.UrlPathEncode("\\Network path")".

Now I'm facing issue how to pass a values to Formula fields dynamically.

For Eg.: Imagine 2 reports are there Report A and Report B

Report A has 2 formula fields - X and Y

Report B has 2 formula fields - Y and Z

When running the report A, I'm passing the below piece of code

                              crReportDocument.DataDefinition.FormulaFields["X"].Text = "'"+x_Value+"'";

                              crReportDocument.DataDefinition.FormulaFields["Y"].Text = "'"+y_Value+"'";

When running the report B, I'm passing the below piece of code

                              crReportDocument.DataDefinition.FormulaFields["Y"].Text = "'"+y_Value+"'";

                              crReportDocument.DataDefinition.FormulaFields["Z"].Text = "'"+z_Value+"'";

My question is

                (1) Can we handle formula fields dynamically when running the report.

                (2) Depends on the report The formula field has to dynamically select and pass to respective reports.
