CrystalReportViewer Export Options

[michu]

I developed a Crystal9 Report outside of VB.Net. Using a "CrystalReportViewer" My report works fine. My question is... When I click on the "Export" in the ReportViewer tool bar the only option I get is to send it to a disk file. How do I get it to ask me the other options that are available ....Excel, MAPI, PDF .... ?

Save as type in the dialog box.

Thanks RiverGuy
Excuse my ignorance. But I fail to see how this will make the "Export" on the CrystalReportViewer tool bar function as it does when the report is opened in Crystal. Can this be done ?

I don't understand what you mean. Are you using the .Net viewer? When I click the Export button on the toolbar....it asks me for a place to save it as and the type of file I want--.rpt, .xls, .pdf, etc. Other than that, I suppose you could code your own export button.

When you open a report in Crystal9(outside of VB.net) and click on the "Export" on Crystal9's tool bar, the Dialog box asks two ListBox questions:
Format - I select PFD
Destination - I select MAPI
I click OK and the Microsoft "Send Mail" opens allowing me to enter the e-mail address and send the report attachment. I just want VB.net CrystalReportViewer's export button to act the same way.

When you install Cr on your machine the other output types are not enabled by default. Select the other export options.
