Hey guys,
I am using the crystal reports 8.5 ocx object in VB6 to do reports. I can display the reports on the screen and export to a PDF, but I cant figure out how to export to a PDF in code (so the user doesnt have to exort manually).
I can do it with word files etc, but its a bit useless as my report setup doesnt export to word properly.
Is there a way to do this? If so, how?

Thanks
Matt

I've not done it in VB 6 but have in Delphi,
First I was able to configure the PDF in the VCL 'Export Options' then added the code:

Crpe1.ExportOptions.FileName := 'c:\Exports\Export.pdf';
Crpe1.Export;

This may be completely different, but I'm using Crystal 8.5 as well, so hopefully it is similar...

It's in the object, but it's part of the CR engine.
