    VB6 Professional or higher version comes with CR Ver 4.x. It's in one of the CD installer directory.

    Sorry I don't use CR 4.x anymore. Each CR version has somewhat different ways of configuring database connection and VB program integration so a step-by-step "show me" would not be ideal unless we have the same CR version (I use 9.0).

    On the bright side, it is very easy to learn. Install and use your CR 4.x. Create a database connection, then proceed to design the report with the connection. The help files would be able to guide you. That's how I did it when management didn't want to "invest" into softwares that boost productivity of their personnel (that was 2 yrs ago - and that's also the reason why I'm working for another employer now! . )

    Goodluck!
