VB .net printing datagrid

[smokey]

Im doing a web-based employee timesheet for school. So the admin can choose a few things and the results will populate into a datagrid. From the datagrid i need a view that is suitable for printing. Im not sure whats the best way. I thought of exporting data to excel or using crystal reports. But I can't get any of these working. Can anyone help me out with this one.

I would look closer at using Crystal Reports. It is a very powerfull tool for creating reports. The problem is what you already know, it is not a easy tool to employ.

Youre gonna have to do some research to get crystal to work. The good news is that Seagate has a number of examples on there website, Also I think that .NET comes with some free tech calls to Seagate when you register(this may depend on the version of .NET your have).

Here is the link to CR tech support website area for .NET examples


This link should take you to a document that list all of there coding examples for VB.NET
http://support.crystaldecisions.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/apps_vbnet.pdf.asp

If that link doesn't work do a search for : "Listing of .NET Appliations in Visual Basic .NET"

Good luck!
