Text export option in Web pages

[MPolin]

Has anyone been able to export to text in a web page using CrystalReportViewer? The export options do not include text, are there no other options?

You can export to text in CR 9 if you use Report Application Server (RAS).

BELOW IS A CUT OUT OF MY APPLICATION WHERE I USE REPORTENGINE TO LOAD REPORTS BUT AM TRYING TO USE CRAXDRT TO EXPORT REPORTS TO TEXT FORMAT. IF AT ALL POSSIBLE YOU COULD GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK, I'D REALLY,REALLY APPRECIATE IT. MY TWO PROBLEMS ARE (1)GETTING MY REPORT FILE TO THE CRAXDRT.REPORT AND (2)I CAN SEE IN DEBUG THE REPORT AND ALL THE VALUES, BUT WHEN I EXPORT NOTHING HAPPENS IT JUST HANGS.

//To export to formats such as Text and Comma-separated values (CSV),
//use the RDC COM component (Craxdrt) through interop assemblies.
