No Reporting Tool in VB .NET (Standard)

[dmano]

Since there is no reporting tool and Crystal Reports Developer is too expensive for a small developer, can I use the older version (on the VB 6.0 CD) in VB .NET?

I just need it to build a payroll program, but a sales rep at Crystal Decisions to me this afternoon that I needed the developer version, but that is too expensive for our business case. Was he just trying to make a bigger sale? Has anyone used the standard version of crystal reports with the standard version of vb .NET?
