Hey everyone, the title pretty much says it all. I've moved from programming within Access to programming in vb.net with an Access .mdb backend. I'm just wondering whether it is possible to embed Access reports within the .NET program since Visual Studio doesn't have a native report generator. And I don't want to have to install access runtime everywhere, as that would render the move to .NET pretty useless.
Did you ever use Access reports with your VB6 applications?
They would work the same way.
You don't embed them in your VB code, you create them in your Access database, and use your VB.NET code to call/execute them.
oh that kind of sucks.. i dont want users to have to install the access runtime on their computers.. which version of VS2008 comes with crystal report writer? Is it as good/nice looking as Access reports?
The output look nice. Programing it I wouild like to Nuc the building where they develop CR.
And this is why I am sooooooooooooooo glad that my current gig is not into CR.Quote:
