EXPORTING CR v8.0 to html thru vb5

[albab]

I'm developing vb5 programming to run crystal report and export it to html format.i've tried the below command but it does't work.
It export into text file and not in the actual format.


Set crystalExportOptions = crystalReport.ExportOptions
crystalExportOptions.CharFieldDelimiter = ","
crystalExportOptions.CharStringDelimiter = "'"
crystalExportOptions.DiskFileName = "Test.tst"
crystalExportOptions.UseReportDateFormat = True
crystalExportOptions.HTMLFileName = "TestHTML.htm"
crystalExportOptions.FormatType = 3
' 0=no format, 1=crystal report, 2=data interchange,
' 3=html, 4=richtext, ... 14=word for windows, and lots of others
' look for CRExportFormatType in the Object Browser

crystalExportOptions.UseReportNumberFormat = True
crystalExportOptions.DestinationType = 1
' 0=no destination,1=diskfile,2=mapi,3=mailVIM,4=MicrosoftExchange
' found under CRExportDestinationType in the Object Browser

Call crystalReport.Export(False)

when using promt,it works.DO HELP ME.
TQ

Which version of CR and which integration method? If not sure, see the FAQ in the general forum on what to include in your question. Ken Hamady, On-site/Phone Crystal Reports Training/Consulting

You be using old documentation, Export FormatType 3 is not HTML (it should be 24 for Standard 3.2), and I am not sure on some of your other commands, like naming both DiskFile and HTMLFile. I would look up the ExportOptions object model in the developers help file that came with CR8. Ken Hamady, On-site/Phone Crystal Reports Training/Consulting
