Can a regular report be saved as a Template report?
- Thread starter pectin232

Templates in Crystal are used for applying a style to an existing report than offering a standard starting point. Useful if there is some fancy 'house style' that the report needs to conform to after you have got it working. But not if everyone accepts the basic layout that you'd get using the 'Expert' functions. Not like a 'template' in MS Word etc.
What I've done is create my own "templates", which I call __Template_A, __Template_B etc. I pick one up and then use Save As to begin a new report that is already set as I like it.
