Hi,

I had got in a situation of creating a Crystal Report dynamically without creating a .RPT file externally.

Is there any way by which i can give the report fields dynamically and make the connection within the codes of VB6.

HI
i m also facing same problem if you know hte solution pls tell me also
im working on Cystal reports 8.0 & vb 6.0. i m already created report in Crystal report & now i want to pass the date parameter in that report thought VB Form. if u know the suggestion hten pls tell me. if u can give empale then its good

Hello,

Creating a dynamic crystal report, presently API's
supplied by seagate do not allow you to do that.

We have to create a .rpt file (physical file) with
crystal reports and we can use that .rpt file in
vb6.0 to view it.

Here we can change the input param values to get the
data from the database. so the data of the report
changes depending upon the params passed.

For passing the date param to the report,
first,
check the position of that param in your
rpt file

second,
Form1.CrystalReport1.StoredProcParam(X) = CStr(Format(Date, "mm/dd/yyyy"))
WHERE X is the position in the .rpt file
(position, i mean it a first param or second param)
if it is first that X = 0 (like an array).

Hope this helps

Hi,:)

First of all you have to design the Crystal Report (This is Compulsory) i.e. set the required Fields to be Displayed, Font Style etc. and then only you can Use VB/Vb.net to set the condition for the records selection.
