Hello Again,<br />
<br />
VB6(SP5), ADO, Access 97<br />
<br />
I would like to use MS Data report. In addition, I'd like to display the data in the report programically. I tried to display data using the following when the report is initatized:<br />
<br />
'Data Report<br />
Me.DataMember = strMember &nbsp; &nbsp; 'Global Variable <br />
Me.dataSource = strDataSource 'Global Variable <br />
<br />
I keep receiving two error messages:<br />
<br />
1. Invalid Data Source<br />
2. Method or DataMember not found.<br />
<br />
Do I have to have a &quot;Data Environment&quot; created?<br />
<br />
What's the better report to use? VB6 Data Report or the Crystal Report(CR) Control that comes with VB6? Can I programically control CR?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Data Report (Display Data Programically)

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
