automated process to create a report?

[voirin]

Hi, I have created a report within CR 10 that I would like to have exp[orted to a pdf document each morning via an automated process. I dont want to, each morning, manually start up CR and do a refresh, then go to file > export > pdf... Id like to have some streamline way of just creating a pdf dump of the report. Is there any such method available?

any help most appreciated!

cheers,
voirin

Hi there,

There is no easy way to automate a report just having Crystal itself. You can schedule reports to run if you have Crystal Enterprise and I believe that there's a piece of APOS software which will allow you to do this but other than that I think your pretty limited.

APOS only makes add-ins for CE, no stand-alone schedulers.

There are a bunch of 3rd party Crystal Scheduling softwares that do this and are linked on Ken's site at -
