VB Crystal Report, Newby Q

Jeff Cichock #1 / 6	Newby Q I just started writing reports here at work and I bought myself a copy of Crystal 9 to do this. Everyone else here at work uses 8.5. The other users can not open and edit the reports that I create in 9. Is there a way to save my 9 reports as 8.5 or do I need to upgrade them/downgrade me? Thanks Jeff

Bob Holme #2 / 6	Newby Q Hi Jeff, CR9 can open previous version reports, but not the other way around and they have to be saved as version9. CR9 cannot save to an older version either. CR8.5 had the ability to save as version 7, but this is not available with CR9. I think you are going to have to settle on one version.

Jeff Cichock #3 / 6	Newby Q Thanks. I was afraid you were going to say that. Oh, well. I guess I'll just have to deal with that.

Mark #4 / 6	Newby Q Hi All. I have a Visual Basic 6 App which I would like to add reports to. It displays data in the same way as you Explore your Hard Drive. i.e Folder - Sub Folder- Sub Sub Folder- Sub Sub Sub Folder. I have a limit of 15 Sub Folder levels deep so my report must have 15 nested groups. Is this possible using Crystal Reports - if so which version should I use. I have tried using the VB report feature but it will not allow me to use more than one group. Many Thanks in advance..... Mark

Bob Holme #6 / 6	Newby Q Mark, Crystal Reports will do what you are suggesting. Crystal Reports version 9 is the latest, so that would be my recommendation. You should look at the "Developer" and the "Advanced" editions if you are planning on incorporating CR into VB apps. Bob Holmes Quote: > OOPs Sorry...
