Creating Crystal Reports which print out on the web server

[etskelly]

I have a VB, COM+, Crystal Reports 8, and SQL Server web application. I need to print out the reports from the web server, as the client PCs are locked down, and can't download any viewer components. How can I create the code to populate the reports from my database and print the reports. At no point do I need to view the reports, just print.

Assuming that you have CR 8 developer, you can use the RDC:

Thanks for your reply, and apologies also, I meant to write an ASP (not vb), com+ ,Crystal reports 8 and SQL Server web app. The rest of the query still applies.
