Got that
Thanks
Hows the racing on the Island been this year :-)
I've been watching some on TV. Seeing bikes being driven like that on public roads. Crazy speeds.
>>>Hi kevin
>>>
>>>thanks for that.
>>>
>>>At the moment the client is trying to make their minds about a number of issues and switching from Crystal to SSRS is one.
>>>
>>>Whats your opinion on the comparison of the two (this is SQL2005 at the moment but switching to 2008 is also one of the decisions)
>>>
>>>
>>>First, a question....is your client using reports in a Winforms/desktop environment or largely in a web environment?
>>>
>>>Second, SSRS 2008 is a much better tool than SSRS 2005. Microsoft basically rewrote SSRS from the ground up. (It does have a bit of a tougher learning curve - certain aspects of the report designer in 2008 take a little while to learn, especially if you've been building reports in SSRS 2005).
>>>
>>>Until 2007 I was a Crystal fanatic, but then became more impressed with SSRS. SSRS doesn't have every single bell and whistle that Crystal has, but I think it's generally a better reporting solution for web reporting.
>>
>>Thanks Kevin
>>
>>thats helpful.
>>
>>At the moment its all desktop running crystal reports inside a 3rd party system. They can write their own crystal reports but have no way of scheduling them so they are manually running and emailing these things out.
>>
>>So the decision to move or not to SSRS is bound up with moving to 2008.
>>
>
>Just sent you an email with a chart -- it needs to be updated but should get you started.
>>They also are possibly going to move to making reports available via the web (again another decision they have to make).
>>
>>Unfortunately its an organisation that seems to be having real problems making these decisions. Their decision making process is chaotic and I am trying to suggest some immediate quick fixes to certain problems and keep an eye on where they should go.
>>
>>So you seem to be SSRS and 2008.
>>
>>Is there anything that Crystal does that isn't possible in SSRS 2008 ?
