Crystal Reports 2008 on the intranet
Hi,
Ideally, I would publish basic reports on our intranet and allow users to interact with parameters and return results.
I have Crystal Reports 2008.
I have Crystal Reports Distributor on the way.
Would I need anything else?
Note, only a couple of us have Crystal Reports installed, I am really hoping even non users can access these reports.
Is what I am after an option?
Thanks all

Hi,
Thanks for that. Its usefull. However, via the viewer I am unable to refresh. I was hoping the viewer would be able to refresh, be prompted for a parameter, and then update.
The source data is in a locked SQL database. Only a few of us have access to it. Would any viewer need to be mapped to retrieve from that database? Or do we have other options?
