Report Creation API

The RDC now includes Report Creation API methods. These methods enable you to create ad hoc reports at runtime using nothing but code. The methods can be used within Visual Basic, Microsoft Office, or in any environment from which you can access an automation server.

The RDC also provides a Report Creation Wizard object that your application can call at runtime to enable your users to create reports at runtime using an intuitive design environment. The Wizard even attempts to identify your data source so it can make the data selection automatically.

The Report Creation API methods provide the application user with Report Designer capabilities even if they are not themselves registered users of Crystal Reports. For this reason, a new licensing model is in effect for these methods only. Please refer to the license material available from the help menu in the product for further information.
