Crystal Report 8.5 and VB .net
I am looking for a similar solution but need to support report parameters
and possibly reports with embedded subreports so far I have a generic
reportviewer that I inherit from for each report with the Datasource and
Parameters hardcoded. my report table has reportname and viewerinstanceName
instead of location
but i still need a method of adding new reports from an entry in the table?
Has anybody come up with a solution for hitting this moving target ?
