You can use the Formulas property. Set up a formula in your Crystal report. For example, name the formula PrintString and make it look like:

"test print"

Then, in your VB app, assign the actual value that you want to the formula:

Report1.Formula(0) = "PrintString=""Print this info"""

You can place the formula anywhere on the report and it will print whatever the VB app has assigned it.
