Stop Export to Crystal Report

[Tig30]

Hi,

I'm using CRXIR2/VisualStudio2005 to display reports on a webpages.

Is there a way I can stop users being able to export to a crystal report from the viewer? There are a few rules etc that I do not want clients to be able to see.
any help appreciated.

Depending on how you are calling you report in code, the viewer has a CrystalReportViewer.HasExportButton Property
which you should be able to set before displaying the viewer.

thanks but I wanted to keep the button and still allow export to word, pdf, excel etc but not to crystal report.

I cant see any way of only including certain options or excluding others?

Export depends on a dll, one per function, I think. I'd suppose that a machine without the correct dll would be unable to export, though I don't know quite how you'd do this.

In CR 9 the DLL is U2fcr.dll, not sure about CRXIR2 though, probably similar.

There isn't a direct option to do so, but I think that you only have export options available for the DLLs installed.

Anyway, that should get you close...
