SMH-
I don't know if it is a suggestion or not, but......
I have been using Crystal 8 for the last 6 months or so. For regular report designing it seems to be pretty good. However, if you get 8.0 with the intent of making reports on the fly, many subreports, alot of VB - Crystal interaction.....I would say avoid it.
In fact, we have had an incident number logged with Seagate for over 30 days now. We are getting the dreaded Dr Watson errors when using their CRAXDT dll. Quite frankly it's pretty tough and ugly to work with at the level we are on....
Anyone have a go with the report designer yet?
Of course it will be Crystal Report. Think about that, why do you think Microsoft will bundle Crystal Report in VS if the report designer is as good?
substring.
Why include the report designer?
Does anyone suggestion something other that the report designer or Crystal Reports?
