export results in empty word doc

[ttchimera]

I'm trying to export a Crystal Report to a Word document via code. I get no errors when executing my code; but when I open the file, there is only the headers: no details. It works when I export through the CrystalReportViewer object.

<It works when I export through the CrystalReportViewer object.
I don't know Crystal too well, but isn't that what that object is for? You don't describe what you mean by "via code" but it's safe to assume that Crystal has some specialized requirements to export reports into some standard data format. So, if it works, then why not do it that way?

I trying was export the report without loading a form. I am kind of new at vb (i have a better background in c++). I was hoping to use the export method.

I forgot to add, I trying to generate reports by a scheduler that passes a parameter for which report to run.

Ok. I'm not sure that the difficulty is with VB. You might want to try posting this in one of the Crystal Reports forums.
