Niall,
I have not tried or even know how to deal with COM objects in WiTango.
I do know that Crystal no longer supports them. Crystal recomends you use
the Report Developer Component.
CR has a web server component you can install on your web server to run
reports w/o modification. You access your report as a URL and the browser
needs the CR plugin. It is easy to use, nothing special needed except $$$$.
The developers version of CR comes w/ a 5 user version of the web server
component. It costs around $1000/concurrent user after 5.
I have written an EXE using VB and the CR RDC that allows you to run a CR
from the command line and automatically generate a pdf. If you have the
developers version of CR version 8.5 with the RDC component installed on
your web server, you could probably call this exe from WiTango, generate a
pdf file, and then have the browser pull up the file you created. I am not
sure where this method of using CR would fall in their licensing agreement.
I am sure it would be in the gray area.
If you are interested in it, send me a private e-mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and we can work something out.
