Iam using Crystal Reports 7.0.

I want to create a new report at runtime through my Visual Basic application so that user of the application can format the report at runtime.

I would be thankful if you can suggest me proper solution.

Hi,

Solution #1: Upgrade to Crystal Reports 8.0. It includes Report Designer Component, which allows you to create reports at runtime.

Solution #2: As far as I remember, I have seen many developers release custom OLE controls for earlier versions of Crystal Reports, which allowed you to mainly customize reports (but not create..) at runtime. Maybe Google can help here.
