Page count for an exported report with .NET 1

[chelseatech]

I have a VB.NET application that exports reports to PDF's. I'd like to keep a log of each export and the page count of each one.

I'm using this to create my report object...
crDoc = New _
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument()
crDoc.Load(FileName)
crDoc.ExportToDisk _
(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, sFileLocation)

I can't find a PageCount property of the ReportDocument object. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Have you seen this?

My .Net install has decided to stop working, so I can't test it right now, but I vaguely remember using this in the past 6 - 8 months.

Thanks Vidru. That deserves a star.
The documentation and object model are a little obscure but I got it to work nicely.

Thanks

Are you converting your apps to .Net? Everytime I think about getting started, I find something missing in the object model that sends me scurrying back under my VB 6 blankie.

Hi Vidru. I'm keeping my VB6 apps in that world and using .Net for the things it is good for.

I needed a windows service and in .NET it was very easy.

But I'm still creating new apps in VB6 as the COM side of things is still an important technology.
