Crystal's web reporting is just crazy as far as licensing fees and such go. Out of their mind, literally. I'm only displaying and printing reports with the RDC, so only report authors need a license. No file production or anything.
XML may be the real way to go, it's essentially free, and is cross platform. Printing from web browsers still has a ways to go, though.

>Same here. I had to print parts of invoices from different trays (some preprinted and some plain). I did not seem like it should be as difficult as it turned out to be. I got that to work in Crystal, but had to make a VB dll to handle the events. Now I have a question about licensing for Crystal (it is pretty pricey for a web app if you want to get your data from VFP and pass it to the report via ado and you have more than 5 concurrent customers) I am moving all the web reports to xml with an xslt sheet I wrote, now that I found the handy dandy page break function in DHTML and how to display stuff in the browser, but not print it.
