Crystal report into a Sage line 200 or Tetra menu?

Anyone know how to get a Cystal report into a Sage Enterprise/cs3 or Line 200 menu?

If it is anything like Sage Mas90, you just save the report into the default report directory the app is running out of (As the report lookup will not find it otherwise). Go into Report Maintenance/Report Import, pick the "tree" within the desired module and report group, enter a user defined name for the menu, point to your created report.

Thanks for your time but I'm sorry to say its not the same
Adding A Third-Party option to CS/3/Enterprise


1.     Add an option
System Manager/Configure User Interface/Options
     Type in an option name starting with :gui:
e.g. ?:gui:excel_sales? (without the quotes) where excel_sales is the key for SQL to address
     Description is what you want to appear on the menu
     e.g. ?Sales History? (without quotes)

2.     Add the option to a menu
System Manager/Configure User Interface/Menus
     As per normal System Administrator function add the option to a menu

3.     Add entry to TCR database
Start/Programs/Microsoft SQL Server 7.0/Enterprise Manager
     Open TCR Tables within your company database
     Left click then right click on TcrGB and select the option Return all rows
     At the bottom of the entries click in the left hand column (TcrKey)
     In this column repeat the entry you typed into the option above
     e.g. ?:gui:excel_sales? (once again without the quotes)
     Value column equals the address of the file you are calling
     e.g. c:\windows\excel\sales.xls ? avoid spaces and if long enclose in quotes
     TCRIndirect set to N
     TCRDescription equals Description you used for option above
     e.g. ?Sales History? (without quotes)
          Type equals AC
          Close TCR and Enterprise Manager

4.     Don?t forget to create the file you want the system to call

I've seen this solution from sage defore but for some reason this does not work with line 200.

But as I've move on to writing a whole new frontend for line 200, I'm happy to give you the points for your time
