No Reporting in VB.NET Standard

I have visual basic.net standard edition which does not come with any reporting module. Does the professional edition come with crystal reports or do I need to purchase crystal reports separately? If I have to purchase crystal reports separately, where's the cheapest place online to purchase it from?

Thanks

I haven't gotten mine yet, but I think I saw that it did come with CR. I haven't used it since it came with NT 4.0. A client still uses it, and hasn't upgraded. They emailed me a report last year.

No, Crystal Reports only comes with the Professional and above versions.

Thanks for getting back to me. I'll have to upgrade to the Professional edition. Can anyone tell me where's the cheapest place to buy the professional edition?

I didnt find it anywhere other then on Microsoft. If you have a previous version then an upgrade version may be the cheapest way to go.

Looks like $1199 for VS Pro with MSDN subscription.
