I have a Crystal Report (v XI) that save to an RTF at the push of a button on a VB6 form. &nbsp;It's fine when I open it with Word, but when I open it with WordPad, every cell gets its own line. &nbsp;I tried changing the formatting in WordPad -- to little success. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I noticed it looks better when I export a report to a &quot;Microsoft Word - Editable (RTF)&quot;. &nbsp;How do I export it like that programmatically? &nbsp;What follows is my code:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; rptOptical.ReportFileName = App.Path &amp;&nbsp;&quot;\Optical.rpt&quot;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; rptOptical.ReportTitle = &quot;Incubator &quot;&nbsp;&amp; iIncubatorNumber<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; rptOptical.Destination = crptToFile<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; rptOptical.PrintFileType = crptRTF<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; rptOptical.PrintFileName = dlgSaveRpt.FileName<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; rptOptical.Action = 1<br />
<br />
Thanx in advance

Crystal Reports, RTF and WordPad

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,

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.
