Crystal reports

Hi,

I'm looking for a program fo printing reports from VB. Now someone has told
me about crystal reports and when I went looking on there site I noticed
that there are 4 possibilities:
- standard
- professional
- developer
- advanced developer

Now I would like to know which one is the best option to use. Because I
noticed that for example the advanced developer is very expensive.
Thanks
Els

Actually, VB does a fine job at printing reports without anothe program like
cysstal reports.
Look at the Printer object . the properties and methods are easy to work
with.
only thing is - not many books touch on printing reports.

Printer.FontSiz e = 12
Printer.FontIta lics = true
Printer.FontBol d = true
etc
Printer has many of the same properties of the Form object.

I have a transaction log file where the DataSet table's Description column is actually delimited into "subcolumns" based upon the transaction id. I would like to parse these into separate fields for reporting purposes and am wondering if anyone knows if this is easily accomplished using the .NET version of Crystal Reports? For example, the description column may be reporting on a dataentry error as follows: TXNCODE: 1010001

I know this may not be the best NG for this, but I feel you guys know more about this than any of the other NGs. I need to build several simple reports (over 50 of them and they get their data from sql server) and I was wondering whish of these is the better tool .. We're still not sure if they'll be loaded from an existing VB6 application or if I'll have to make a separate module for them (in .Net). In general, which is the better tool?...

Hello all, I have created an ASP.NET website that uses Crystal Reports that works on the localhost (my PC), but when I copy it to the server it does not. The problem is ExcelUseConstantColumnWidth = False. On my PC when exporting a report, it works - columns are varible width to fit the field, from the server it does not - I get constant width columns. I suspect it is a DLL issue, but so far all my comparisons are coming out the same.

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...
