ASP: Exporting a report to PDF, destination = Application

Hi all,
I'm trying to export a report to PDF using ASP. What we're doing is bypassing the Crystal Viewer, and just exporting directly to PDF. I can export it fine using sample code when CrystalReportOptions.DestinationType is 1 (to Disk). But, we don't want to save the report to disk, we just want to set the destination type to Application (5). Does anyone know if this is even possible in ASP?
I've searched the Crystal Reports Knowledge base, with no help. I'm assuming that the report is created in the c:\temp directory, and have given the proper rights to that folder. I've even created system variable for TEMP and TMP to point to that folder, and it hasn't helped.

So at this point, no matter what folder I specify as the destination folder, I get the following error:
Crystal ActiveX Designer, 12147206460, Invalid Directory.

Any help with this issue will be much appreciated!

I have just found a most important solution to Crystal Reports and PDFs:

"Report Objects Not Clear in Exported Copy of a Report" can be found at url:


This has certainly retified output format issues I have been encountering for selected Clients wanting to utilize an Adobe Acrobat Reader.

It does entail modifying the Windows registry via the editor.

Thanks
