Crystal V10 - Drilldown option gone?

[Kevinski]

I see there is something called 'Report Part Drilldown Option' but no option to create a drilldown report from scratch in V10.

Has anyone used the above? The help on this seems quite complicated and I'm not sure it works the same as creating a plain old drilldown report.....

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, because from my standpoint I haven't seen any major changes in the way drill down is managed between Crystal Reports 7 and 10... I haven't personaly played with Report parts but I don't see where you gathered that they're required for drill-down...

You create groups one on top of the other and your drill-down setup appears...

Am I missing something?

I was previously using V8.5 and in that version when you want to create a new report using the Wizard there are the following options:

Standard
Form Letter
Form
Cross-tab
Sub-Report
Mail Label
Drilldown
OLAP

Doing the same thing in V10 the list is somewhat shorter:

Standard
Cross-tab
Mail label
OLAP

The drill down report wizard isn't there any more, so use the Standard Wizard and then hide the lower level sections.
