Creating an interactive ASP.NET report portal

Hi!

I am a medium skilled programmer, both in ASP.NET and C# and I have some basic experience in Crystal reports 9. When my boss learned about this he wanted me to make a webpage where he can view his reports, instead of asking his secretary for producing them. Now my problem is that I don't know where to start really. Which are the requirements for doing this? I have Crystal Reports Developer and "Visual Studio with Crystal Reports".

My test report works like this:

When running it it asks for 3 parameters, date and two values. Then it generates a diagram. I want the user to get the same questions in a form field on the ASP.NET page. Is that possible, or how does it work really? Can someone give me a brief explanation? Just to get me started. Or perhaps point me to some tutorials or webpages..?


thank you!

Why not use the "Crystal Reports - Report Aplication Server" which basically creates a Webpage/Site for you. You tell it where you store your reports... you can give AD permission to the folders, etc.

I think you can find it on the Crystal Disc... I use it for our 30 remote offices to access reports, as well as internal users.
