parameterized crystal report

[alexis23]

hi..

i am currently working with vb6 - crystal report... right now what is was doing is that i open a recordset in the vb then i just pass the recordset to crystal report...
is there other way than this? you know the database is location is variable.. so can i just pass the connection string to the crystal report as well as the parameters.???

pls help.. any sample codes will be a great help.

thanks in advance.
