Crystal Reports in VB.NET Express EditionHello, I have a quick question.
I am currently using VB.NET Express. I need to use Crystal Reports (Crystal Report Viewer, etc.) in the application I am working on. The only issue - since I am using Express Edition, I am assuming that Crystal Reports is not included. So my question - can I purchase it? Or, do I need to acquire a retail box of Visual Studio. If so, which versions has it? Thank you PM

You should use SQL Server Reporting Services dude On May 21, 12:32 pm, PM <P***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: Show quoteHide quote > Hello, I have a quick question. > > I am currently using VB.NET Express.

Support is great and its a dll copy install. I switched to this after headaches with crystal reports. Simple and it works.
