Crystal Reports Unbound report?

I need to write a Crystal Reports report by passing it an array of
objects. The report needs to cycle through the array and print an
address label for each object.

I cannot figure out how to use CR by getting data from an object. Can
anyone help?

TIA

Hi larzeb,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you need to know how to write a Crystal
Reports report by passing it an array of objects. If there is any
misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

I'm sorry but currently Crystal Report issues are not supported by
Microsoft. You can try to check the following link for Crystal Support
websites. And we can also wait here to see if any community member has good
suggestion on it.

My suggestion would be to handle the array of objects yourself, maybe pop them into a
dataset rather than an array. It's very simple to get the info out of your dataset.

Granted, I use CRv10, and it has built-in template for mailing labels. I would be to use
a dataset (probably a typed dataset), then set that dataset as your datasource at report
design time. This will allow you to get the correct the parameter names & mapping done
right at report design time. At run time, I would translate that array of objects you
have now into a dataset, then set the report's datasource to this dataset.
