Need to add text and graphics to Crystal Reports

[Rockrz]

Does anyone know where I can find a program that will allow me to open up a Crystal Report and add text and graphics to it, and then save it?

Any help in finding such a program would be greatly appreciated.

You mean other than Crystal Reports itself?

Some versions of Microsoft development software has a version of Crystal in it, but this would be entirely dependent upon which version of Crystal the report is in.

The world is littered with Crystal Reports licenses, it's the number one product by a loooong ways, check around, someone probably has a copy at your office.

Well, I'm in the Atm business and we get monthly reports emailed to us in Crystal Reports format.

The only problem is that is has our processor's name and phone number on it, and we don't want people calling them up to go direct.

So, the easiest thing to do is cover that up before we print the report to mail to our sales reps.

Nobody I've evce spoken to has heard of a program that allows you to inset text and graphics into an existing Crystal Report

Crystal Reports allows you to enter text and graphics into Crystal reports...

How are you opening the report?

Most viewers have an export function, so export it to RTF or a DOC and then modify it as you see fit.

Here's a list of 3rd party viewers, many have exporting in them:

I usually suggest Ido's $25 product for this sort of thing:
