Using Crystal Reports dlls to export a datagrid

Aug 7 2009 11:21 AM
Hi,

I have some data in a .Net form that I'd like to export to different formats, from a datagrid.  Examples of some are text, Excel, and PDF.  I could write each section of the export from scratch, but we're already using Crystal Reports in the business so I thought I could leverage their export dlls to accomplish the same thing.

I'm using Crystal Reports XI, and .Net 2.0 with VS 2005.

Note there is no crystal report in the actual form; just a datagrid.  I want to bypass the report completely if possible.

Can this be done?
