    Re: exporting Crystal Report 8 to pdf file

    RobDog888, I'm just using CrystalReport control, we're not using CRViewer and I never know how to utilize it plus, I was told that it was a lil slower in report generation.

    we just simply call it like this:

    With CrystalReport1
    .Connect = "DSN=.;UID=sa;PWD=;DSQ=pubs"
    .ReportFileName = App.Path & "\rptTesting.rpt"
    .Action = 1
    End With

    I hope you would be able to help me Man, btw you're Microsoft Certified? propz man that's one of my aspiration..Thanks

    I'm not sure exactly when Crystal added PDF support, but you need an extra dll, u2fpdf.dll. Apparently you can't do it directly from the Crystal OCX, but you can do it from the print preview window using the OCX. Look at this FAQ on the Crystal website: http://support.businessobjects.com/l...s/c2011686.asp
