Hi,

I'm aware that you can use an ActiveX DLL as a data source within Crystal, but I not 100% sure where to start.

I use VB a lot, for normal applications, I've embeded CR Viewer within these apps, but I need to have a complex recordset for use by standalone CR.

Anyone got a tutorial? Specifically - what I need to do in the VB part, and what options in CR 8.5 / 9 (we have 2 versions in use at the moment.)

Thanks
Rob
