You would have to have a version of Crystal Reports installed on the
server. I have 9.0 installed and that provides the necessary .dll's
that the asp page interfaces with. All my stuff is in cf, I only pass
the info I need to the .asp page as the last step on the way to
presenting the .pdf to the user in their web browser. Be happy to
provide more info if you would like. I have a copy of the .asp code
and instructions I have sent to others. Let me know if you would like
it.
I have been excited about the posibility of the new blackstone release
making this much easier. Last year at max I got the feeling we could
look forward to it. I hope so. I never could make this work with
CFOBJECT even though I was able to find some info on it. So, until
blackstone I just use the .asp page. Someone smarter might be able to
make it work with cfobject and then you wouldn't need the .asp code.

Subject: Report Generator - Crystal Reports?
To: CF-Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I am working on an application that will need to generate a wide variety of
reports and invoices, preferable with output to the web and in PDF that
could then be printed or emailed. This application is going to be used by
different customers, so that ability to brand the reports and invoices is
very important.
I have never used Crystal Reports, but I have heard it mentioned quite a few
times in the context of CFMX. Can anybody make any recommendations as to
Crystal Reports or another method for building this kind of functionality?
Thanks
