Hi guys !

There is a .dll available from Crystal's web site that gives Crystal Reports the ability to export reports in .pdf format.

Once you have the .dll registered, you can then print reports from VB to pdf.

Go to: http://support.crystaldecisions.com and search their knowledgebase for pdf

Hope this helps.

thanx for ur imm response...

i tried searching in Crystal site and they have clearely mentioned that this export option available only for 8.5 and above versions.

my version is 7.0....and no plans to buy 8.0 and above.

any other options....?

thanx again

I'm using version 8.0 and it works OK. I'm not sure about V7.0 though.

I've got 2 versions of the .dll, so one of them may work for you. If you give me your email address, I'll email them to you.

You've got nothing to lose.
