Q:

opening and printing multiple crystal reports from a windows app

I am going to be building a windows forms application that will essentially queue up and print off several crystal reports.
Really at this point, I just need some direction of a way to go forward with this.  What is the best way to open a crystal report in a windows forms app?  Are there libraries developed to assist with this etc?
I will be using C# .net 2.0 (probably...but maybe 4.0)
thanks for your time in advance.

A:

All you need is the Crystal Reports RunTime. Or if you need to use an older version for some reason:  http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/runtime.asp#09
Then use the ReportDocument class.  It has a Load and a Print method - it's pretty  straight forward to use.  There is also a report viewer that you can use to let the user view the report.
