Dear mlmcc<br />
Thank you very much<br />

I want to programatically export a crystal report (version 7) into a rich text format to a file using the crystal report control. The logic on a high level should be as follows:<br />
<br />
assign all contro properties<br />
cr control.action=1<br />
cr.export to a file<br />
close the report<br />
<br />
Can some one tell me how to do that using VB6 and the crystal report control, and using a rich text format. <br />
Thanks<br />

exporting a crystal reports programatically

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.

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
