lookout & crystal reports

[boliver]

Howdy;

Does anybody know the best way to get a report from crystal reports into Lookout (or into a Lookout HTML report) - also, keep in mind I don't have a lot of experience with Crystal Reports so I'm just looking for a general idea, not necessarily a step-by-step for the present.

Hi,

Assuming the report you generate from CrystalReports is in the HTML format, you can easily include it in your Lookout HTML report by using the Include datamember of the Report Object.

Create a Report Object. Then make a connection similar to the following:

Report1.Include1 = "c:\CReports\report1.htm"

The final report will include this Crystal report1.htm in it. You may include more files by using subsequent Include datamembers: Include2, Include3, and so on. You can also include plain text this way.

Hope this helps,

Khalid 🙂
