Summary


This chapter's goals were as follows :

  • To learn how to use Crystal Reports for VS .NET

  • To explore Crystal Reports's export feature

  • To understand report delivery options using Crystal Reports

This chapter introduced you to the Crystal Reports for VS .NET product from Crystal Decisions, Inc. The seamless integration of Crystal Reports into VS .NET made it easy to demonstrate several of the Crystal Reports "reporting" features. You learned how to create and modify a report file. Additionally, you learned about the Crystal Reports Viewer control, the export features, and the XML Web services publishing feature. This chapter's discussion helped put into perspective the more "modern" view of reporting and information delivery.

In the next chapter you will explore the topic of .NET application deployment.
