Welcome to the second edition of Professional Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET. Crystal Reports is one of the world’s leading software packages for creating interactive reports that can be integrated into a wide range of Windows and Web applications. With more than four million licenses shipped, Crystal Reports is the leader among Windows report writers. Crystal Reports has been in the Visual Studio box since 1993, but with the introduction of Visual Studio .NET 2002, a new version, Crystal Reports .NET, was integrated more closely than ever before. And with the release of Visual Studio .NET 2003, the bar has been raised even higher, with tighter integration and more reporting options. This book will detail the functionality provided with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2003 and how, when, and where you should integrate reports into your .NET applications.
This book does not attempt to be all-inclusive, and it will not teach basic .NET techniques. To be able to deliver a functional guide to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET, we assume that you have a grasp of essential programming techniques — in this case, a knowledge of programming in Visual Basic .NET and experience using Visual Studio .NET — and that you can apply these skills to a new technology.
This book is for programmers who want a comprehensive guide to the functionality included with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET. It’s assumed that you have some knowledge of .NET and experience with Visual Studio .NET.
It is mainly aimed at readers who have some experience with Crystal Reports. However, this edition has been specifically updated to include a large section on report design, which can assist new users in learning how to create their own reports. This title should also prove valuable for readers who are new to reporting in general and who want a guide to this free reporting tool they’ve discovered within Visual Studio .NET.
This book covers the features of Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET that you’ll find yourself using time and again to build complex reports and integrate them into different .NET applications. We start by explaining how Crystal Reports fits into the .NET platform and how it differs from previous versions of Crystal Reports.
