hi all,
i've been wondering. Have any of you worked with Crystal Reports 5/6? I created a report in 6 (5 too), that we are using in our product through an activeX control. In the process, i found that it was very 'buggy'. I was wondering of you have had the same experience. For instance :
1.aligning fields proved to be close to impossible. Fields seem to have a will of their own, and sometimes they refuse to move (using the arrow keys). The report looks nice from a distance, but that's it.
2.Furthermore, you can't use cursors, so you need to store tables.
3. It's not OO
As far as i can see, its multipass (and therefore subreports) feature, is the only reason to use it. Do you know of any other 3rd party products that would enable me to:
-create subreports
-OOP-ify my reports
I am curious of your findings...
greetings,
derk
