VB code for access and viewing Crystal

[LisaFarren]

Hello,
I need help in finding VB6 code to setup a GUI for users to access and view Crystal reports(8.5). Any help and or links would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

There are 2 ways you can go. The older way and new way. The old way is to design reports in the Crystal Report Designer, save them as .RPT files, drop the Crystal OCX on a VB form, and execute the report. The new way is to design the reports inside of the VB IDE and use the Crystal object model to run the report.

If you go to:

and type "Visual Basic Examples" in the Ask Jeeves query box, you'll have pointers to a lot of decent examples. Brian J. Alves
