HTML reports

[MisterC]

I'm looking for an alternative to Crystal for reporting functions in my vb application. I'm considering using some form of html to accomplish this.
Does anyone have any recommendations or guidance here?
Thanks

We decided to fire Crystal for many different reasons and we have started reporting in ASP pages. We us an old NT box as a webserver with IIS loaded and a web control in one of our VB Forms. It works like a charm.

By using ASP pages, we are able to do the same things, if not more than we could do with Crystal, but with a language that we understand.

This sounds like something that I would really like to set up, but I haven't done any ASP...Where can I go to find out more specifically relating to passing info to ASP for reporting??? Thanks!!!

I have created an application the uses html templates to do the reporting. I use a substitution scheme whereby the template files contain the db names in tags that are then read by the application...I then write out the file and launch IE to view it.
