Crystal Reports and Parameters

I have the following scenario.
I have some Crystal Reports that were created outside
the .NET Visual Studio. These reports were designed to
enter date parameters.
I have developed a ASP.NET app to display these reports.
I am succesfull when there is no parameters.

But, Is there a function in .NET to automatically display
the Crystal Report Paramenter Form?

If I am not mistaken, you need to create your own Parameter Form.

What I am trying to accomplish is to be able to display
CR reports that developers had created in the Crystal
Reports software and not via the .NET Visual Studio.
If these existing reports does not contain parameters
then I can display the report on the web; otherwise, it
is expecting parameters. These parameters were created
inside the .rpt file.

My objective is to access the .rpt, open it and print
the report. If there are pre-define variables in the CR
that the user needs to specified via the CR, I should be
able to access via ASP.NEt the CR form's parameter before
printing.

Is this possible without writting again code since the
CR.rpt contains those attributes?

I believe the CR .NET object should be able to retrieve a list of
parameters for the report... once you have the list, you'll have to write
your own code to display the list to the user and accept user input.

So I believe you need to write code.

We have a .NET C# web-based application using Crystal Reports 9 to display reports. One of these reports has a dozen or so parameters. I would like to avoid having to build some custom parameter screen(s) that prompts the user for the parameters, but rather have the report itself (in the viewer) do the prompting (as if you were running the report in the Crystal Reports designer). I think you could do this in 8.5/ASP with the...

Using ideas provided by some of you I was able to figure out how to get the names of the parameters fields of a crystal report specified at run time. The code below just basically puts the data into a comboBox. One thing I noticed, however, is that this method shows me both the parameters used by the main report and parameters used by the sub-report(s).

On reflection, you could possibly make the app a self extracting zip file which extracts the EXE and a settings file and then starts the app, then when you app closes, it can repack the settings file and itself into the exe. You would probably want a tool for this bit which could be in the zip too. So the app isnt single exe when running but when not running, it is. Just an idea for you to think about. Another option would possibly be to...
