I am new to vbExpress. I am working in vb express with MsAccess as database. I have a form with ListView and some comboboxes,textboxes,buttons etc. Now I am at the stage of forming different reports from database and then printing them. Like I want to make a RECEIPT with CompanyName as header, date, time, Serial Number, ItemDescription, Quantity,Price, Amount,Mode of payment. Then I want to generate sales reports like daily sale, weekly sale, monthly sale. The things like that. Definitely I will use SQL statements to bring data from the tables according to the requirements of reports. My question is how I can make and display different reports from the databases and to print them in proper format.
Basically, I am looking for a method on how to preview reports from a datagrid or it can be from the access database which populates the data to the datagrid (then displays this in the datagridview) in vb.net vs 2010.I believe there are two methods using the ReportViewer or using Crystal Reports, but so far, I have no idea how to get them to work. The first idea would be favourable - using the data from a datagridview (which may of already been sorted, filter etc) and be able to produce a report on that.

A couple of things firstly When I create a new Crystal Reports file (using the built in Crystal Reports in Visual Studio) I create a blank document. I then insert a Text label type text and goto properties and Visual Studio Exits with no rhyme or reason. No error. Anyone experienced this or get any ideas?
Secondly I have a form with a load of text boxes in a column/row arrangement and text labels as column headers. I then want to be able print these in nice view (I have a certain way I have to display the print out.
I have never used Crystal Reports but I thought this would be the way to go about it. Is this right or is there another easy way? If it is can anyone point me to any example (preferablly begginer and basic) that I can read and learn from?

I'm trying to take a print on a Continuous Paper through a Thermal Printer ZP 2844 using Crystal Reports 2008 along with Visual Basic .NET 2008. I've set the page size to 3.00 inches as width & 3.00 inches as height. It prints well when the contents are a few on a single page but it puts gap when printing more than single page. There's no page margins set in crystal reports & the printing setup is the same in Crystal Reports as well as in Printer's Setup. Even in Print Preview of Crystal Report, it shows 2 pages to be printed but there's neither any gap at the end of first page & the start of second page. But! Still, a gap is shown when the report is printed. Here's an example how the print is show:
You can notice the gap between Item3 & Item4 which is due to next page or page break or so. I've noticed that in Crystal Report Viewer for Web, there's an option of SeparatePages = False which let you have a single/continuous page printing but I've not found any such option in Crystal Report Viewer for Desktop.
I am looking for a tutorial for making reports with Visual Studio 2008. I have a VB.Net app using hard coded MySQL statements and variables from different parts of the program, mostly the server as I have the same app with options to connect to different servers with the same back end structure (different data unique). As far as i know I can not use data sets (I think thats the name for them) as that would mean one program for one location.

And after that i work further in the BI Studio. Now i have a problem i have a report(letter) that i need to generate. But i exists of 2 pages. The first page is a letter with the second page as Attachment with some calculations. So i may not printed on the same page. But i can't make 2 page's in de report builder or BI studio. How can i do that? Because i must place on each page a footer with some general info.

I am being given excel sheet daily and want to upload them to an existing database with the exact same column names, i wanted to do this in sql server 2005, but then i thought it would be easier to just creat an asp.net program that could do this autmatically, that way the managers could do it them selves. would i use a bulk insert?
I have developed a VB .net application which uses SQL CE as its database engine. It works great so far. I recently added a section to remove unwanted reports which are stored in the database. The app correctly pulls ReportIDs from the table, which the user can select. The program will then delete the records based on the ReportID from the database. I know this records because, for testing purposes, message boxes inform the user of how many records where collected.
Dim SQLDeleteData As String = "DELETE FROM ReportData WHERE (TableID = @ID)" Dim Con As New SqlCeConnection(DataBaseCon) Dim DeleteData As New SqlCeCommand(SQLDeleteData, Con) Dim ReportDelete As Integer = -1 DeleteData.Parameters.Add("@ID", SqlDbType.Int).Value = CInt(ListView1.SelectedItems(0).Text) noOfDeleted = DeleteData.ExecuteNonQuery MsgBox("Records Data Deleted " & noOfDeleted)
When the form refreshes to show the user the possible ReportID's, the list no longer contains the recently deleted ReportID. Now this is where I am getting confused. When I go through the server explorer and look at the database there, in the appropriate tables the data still exists. Through the server explorer new query builder, I can still create a select statement to allow me to view the data I just deleted. Does the server explorer create some type of local cache that replicates the database in someway? Are there really two copies of the database somewhere?
I am creating reports in Crystal Reports that is integrated within Visual Studio 2008, and I noticed that some of the features are disabled. One is the ability to link tables with a Right Outer Join or Full Outer Join. I also cannot "Show SQL Query" in Crystal Reports. Is this something I can enable or do I have to purchase or upgrade?
I'm trying to make alterations to an existing Crystal Report form in a VB.net project I've inherited, and it's my first time using Crystal Reports. For clarity, I'm using Crystal Reports under Visual Studio 2010, not the standalone Crystal Reports.I've had a good go at looking through all the functions and variables listed in the CR Designer, and can't find what stored procedure is being used to call for data.
I have some Crystal Reports connecting to a Sql Server db that I would like to detect whether the connection is trusted or whether I need to supply the log on info (reports are not supplied by me so I can't control the connect method). If I just blindly supply login credentials, it won't connect if it is a trusted connection.The following does not work:
oRpt = oCR.OpenReport("C:MyReport.rpt")
if oRpt.Database.Tables(1).ConnectionProperties.Item("Integrated Security") = True then 'trusted connection[code]....
It gives the following error:Operator '=' is not defined for type 'IConnectionProperty' and type 'Boolean'.
I cannot find how create a construct in vb.net for IConnectionProperty. I can't find any documents from Crystal that explain it.I am using Crystal Reports XI - Developer

I just purchased VS 2010 Professional. I was using 2010 Express and i used to use Crystal Reports 9 to create my reports. My problem is that CR9 does not allow me to connect to the new MS Access database (accdb). It only lets me connect to .mdb. I used to use .mdb but i have upgraded to MS Office 2010.
I am wanting to print a access database file by going up to my menu strip and clicking print. I don't want to preview the file or anything, I just want the code to simply pop up the default print dialog box and be able to hit print. Everything I have looked at seems to be very complex, is there not a easy way to just print this database file? Again I don't want to edit the output file at all with fonts, borders, etc.

I have deployed a Visual Studio executible module written in VB Net 3.5 SP 1 with Crystal Reports. When the user tries to view a report(s)they are prompted to login in to the data base that has been data sourced into the report module. The correct database was verified before the build was made. The developer is able to run the report in a run mode on the local machine where the VB project was created. In the properties section in the project the following check boxes pertaining to reports were checked on:
Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008(x86, x64) Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Report Viewer
Notes: If the executible module is deployed to a machine that has Visual Studio 2008 installed, the Reports run fine without a database login prompt.If the executible module is deployed to a machine that does not have Visual Studio 2008 installed, the user is prompted for a login. The data base is a SQL server 2008 database.
