Data Reports.Net

[stingrae]

Hey all,

I was (one of the few) programmers around who became extremely familiar with the VB Data Report in VB6. The company worked at was too cheap to buy Crystal so I stuck with VB and hence I've written 100s of reports in the VB6 data reports.

Now I'm using .Net, the time has come for me to write reports. Does anyone know if there is tool in .Net to do this? I can't seem to find one. I found a crystal reports view, but not designer. If there is a tool in Vb.Net, then is there a white paper from Microsoft that explains how to do this?

any pointers?

You can add a crystal report from the Add New Item menu, its one of the items, I think toward the middle. Then you'll probably want to use the viewer to see. You can F1 the viewer or a report and that should get you to the section of the help that explains about using Crystal Reports in .NEt.

hey,

as stated above, i'm a real dummy with C Reports. Does anyone know where you can download a good resource book or tutorial? I used one from Microsoft when I started with Data Reports and it helped heaps.
