I have VS.net 2003 with Crystal.
I have been asked to develop an application which will allow users not just to generate reports but also to alter their layout.
This means that the users have to be able to choose a source for a report dynamically and then bind that to a report and choose which fields to appear on the report and where.
This sounds like a bit ambitous to me and I was wondering if it is possible ?
Any feedback is welcome.
No Takers ???:confused:
Sounds great, why don't they just use a report designer like Crystal?
This seems like a pretty tall order to me, but hey, if they are willing to give you time and money, everything is possible.
To me, this shouldn't be a web app unless you want to get into javascript hell.
With Active Reports for .NET (professional), you get all the controls that make up a report designer. This allows you to code up your own. It wouldn't be a web app, but at least you could get a lot closer to what they want, yet still have control on what they can and can't do.
