Crystal & Web Viewer Component

[JenB]

I know Crystal has halted development on the Web Component because they want everyone to shell out for Enterprise..... I was just wondering if anyone has developed it further to enable it to run to PDF files?
We have setup ASP pages to run our reports thru the Web, as Enterprise is way too expensive! The Web Component is limited in it's export functionality.....

Thanks in advance!

The web component is still part of Enterprise (in a modified form). The 5 CALs you get with Crystal will probably support more users than the old free component in 8.0 (it never did scale beyond more than a few users).
You don't have to use Enterprise for managed reports, you can still just point the browser at an rpt down a URL. Andrew Baines
