Crystal

I have created my first crystal report and now want to access it through VB.

I have added the Crystal Reports component

I have dimmed as a Crystal Report

Do I now use the set command to point the program to my report?

Dim NameGraph As CrystalReport
Set NameGraph = "c:\reports\eventnamegraph.rpt"

This gives me a type mismatch error.

Thanks in advance

Boothman,
Here's an example. The printreport method generates a print preview by default. The formula examples aren't needed unless you want to dynamically pass formula values.

With crystlrpt1
        .ReportFileName = App.Path & "/rptMain.rpt"
        .Formulas(0) = "fTitle= 'Computer Service/Request Management'"
        .Formulas(1) = "fSortBy= '" & sSortMsg & "'"
        .Formulas(2) = "fFilterBy= '" & sFilterMsg & "'"
        .PrintReport
    End With

Regards,

What I would like to do is pass a date range for my report. The dates are @FromDate and @ToDate (self-explanitory).
Then I would like to generate the report based on that information.
Thanks.
