Exporting using VB.NET 2005 Crystal for .NET assemblies(CRXI Release 2

[N11689]

In our VB6 app, we used RDC (CRAXDRT) Export method to prompt the user for the export format type and the destination for that exported format for a report.

We are upgrading our VB6 programs to VB.NET 2005. Business Objects recommends using the Crystal Reports for .NET assemblies rather than RDC. In their document, crxi_r2_migrating_from_rdc_to_net.pdf, it explains (on page 33) hot to Export the report without prompting the user. It shows the RDC method and the .NET assembly method.

I need to know how to Export the report PROMPTING the user.
We want our users to be able to select the format type and destination fof the report. The ReportDocument object model has four Export methods, but all require a format type to be filled in. The user who runs the app cannot choose.

Can anyone help?

Hi,
I believe you could create a DropDown list control and pass its selected value to the ReportDocument Object..
