Hi,

On the fly, I mean just distribute my rpt file to my customer and change my application system file so that my application will know of the new report file and allow my customer to view it like a add-on.

I am think of implementing a flexible feature that allow me to update
my application reporting feature by using distributing those rpt file only.

If not, is there any other better suggestions.

BTW, I know that Crystal Report 8.5 allow user to modify their report on the fly, is it very flexible and easy for normal user to do it themselve ?


>Can you clarify "on the fly"? Do you mean that you will programmatically create the report when needed?

Can it be done this way as I want flexiblity instead of hard coding my report into my application. Any one had done similar thing, please kindly advise me on this area. Thank you.
