To start I am VERY new to all of this. I do create several report documents in Crystal and sell to clients, however I want to start doing this on my sites to show sample reports. How do I do that? What do I need? Again very new and could use some step
by step help. Any help would be appreciated. Where I am so new to it I don't really know what to ask other than how and what do I need to do to get a page that would show a list of my report files and allow one the click the link and display a report that
may or may not request parameters. Thanks in advance.
Life is what you make it, so write in pencil first.
I should qualify the question with the fact that I use MS Web Dev 2088 Express, so I don't have the native Crystal tools to use. There has to be a way to use crystal without having to purchase VS 2010 Pro. I have Crystal Reports X and Crystal XI.
I want to know what I need to do to be able to view created .rpt's on my site. What do I need on the server? What controls do I need to use in my page (without VS2010) using express editions of VS Web Dev. There has got to be a way and I can't find it
anywhere.
I need help desperately. Thanks in advance
