Totally new to Crystal Reports

I am Totally new to Crystal Reports. I am using VB6 and CR8. I want to call crystal reports in my vb project.
where do I find resources from which I can learn from the scratch.

I want to know which reference should be added to the project, how to create and then call the reports thru the forms.

I suggest using the RDC:

Also check out Ken Hamadys site, he has a modestly priced tutorial:

I'd recommend using the RDC.

Howard Hammerman has a CBT on using Crystal with VB that's easy to follow, and cheap.

I updated Hammerman's Crystal 8.5 classroom training materials to 9.0, but you can still buy the 8.5 course books from his website for about $50. I teach Crystal 9 classes in the San Francisco Bay area.

You should also buy George Peck's book. He has editions for Crystal 7, 8, 8.5 and 9.
