Can you execute and create an RTF of a crystal report directly from VB

[DrewM]

If so, I would love to know. Are there functions in the Crystal Library that allow you to automatically create an export without ever displaying the report?

Thanks,

Andy

If you use the Crystal Control on your form, just set the following properties:

cr_RptControl.PrintFileName = "c:\outPutFile.rtf"
cr_RptControl.PrintFileType = 15

the when you set Action = 1, it will generate the report directly to the disk, in RTF mode.

If you have V8, using the RDC technology gives you much better export options. To more formats, with more options.
