Hello --

Should this be posted in a Crystal Reports forum instead?

Can anyone recommend a utility to convert MS ACCESS report objects to Crystal Reports?

Thanks for any suggestions.

I have never found any utility software that will convert reports for one generator to that of another - eg Crystal to/from Access, Business objects, SQL Server reporting services or other types.

Basically there are too many differences - data sources, properties of the various fields and report itself, and any code behind the report such as VBA in the case of Access. I think you will have to do it manually.

I believe there is a utility that will convert an Access report to SQL Server Reporting Services. I'm also not aware of anything that converts from Access to Crystal Reports.[pre][/pre]
