Kevin,

This is very helpful, but in my C# code the ReportDocument is highlighted, e.g. what references should I include to make this work?

This is my current code

this.CrystalReportSource1.ReportDocument.Load(appReaderReport.RouteScheduleReport);
                        // Mapping Crystal Report DataSet to Biz Obj DataSet

// Here we were setting up individual tables                        this.CrystalReportSource1.ReportDocument.Database.Tables["RouteData"].SetDataSource(oRouteHeader.DataSet.Tables[oRouteHeader.TableName]);
