Thanks for the reply, guys.

This is how I intend to let the users use it.
1. Introduce 'Print to Email' in my print dialog
2. When click, auto-generate and attach the report (in HTML) to the email body.
3. User chooses the receipient(s) and send the email.

Any other suggestion?

Do you guys think Crystal report or GenReportX is more suitable? By the way, I am running in file-server model instead of client-server model. Don't know if it matters.

I have plan to use WebConnect for the same customer in the future. Does this affect my decision?

>Crystal Reports Version 5.0/6.0 has the ability to export reports to HTML format. Specific Microsoft, Netscape and Oracle Web extensions are available when exporting. Crystal Reports also allows the selection of destination, ie. disk file, e-mail address, Mail server, etc.
