Running Crystal reports without crystal installed 1

[SmithyJD]

We have a number of reports that our users run through Sage Manufacturing which have been developed in Crystal, we are to stop using Sage but the users need to continue to run a number of the crystal reports is there a way to run them from a command prompt for example?

If it makes a difference its crystal version 10. I know we could install crystal to each machine but the licencing costs would be high.

Thanks

Sounds like you need to install a CR viewer on the users' machines. There is a list of them at Ken Hamady's site. Some are free and all are more reasonably priced than the full CR program. Some also have bulk licensing discounts.

We have used Millet's DataLink Viewer for several years and have been very happy with it.

Thanks again
