Good Design Principals

[vbXML]

Hi Experts,
If I need to design a 3-tier app using VB/Access/CrystalRpts, and for now I can only have access to CR9.0. Where would I deploy the report format files.

And majority of the times I end up designing my reports using "field definitions only" text files and then from the VB open the report file and bind it with CDO created using the data object gotten from either the Business/data layer objects. Am I doing it the right way?
Thanks in advance

There is no one way to do something or a right or wrong way. If it gets the job done then its ok.

I have a small example in my signature for using CR and passing it an ADO recordset as the DataSource.
