    Posted: 16 Feb 2010 at 4:03am

I was wondering if someone could help me out.

To make things short and sweet: I want to hyperlink from text/data in my crystal report to something else in my vb.net project, not another report or url. Say for eg. I want the heading in my CrystalReport to be a link to my Form2.vb..... How do I do that.
I am using vb.net 2008 with .net framework 3.5 sp1.
Thank you for your time.
ps. Sorry if my language is bad. English is my 3rd language....

I have not tried using it as you suggest. This is from the CR Help file. Since your form2.vb would be a file it may just work.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Use the Hyperlink command to create a hyperlink from the selected object to a web site, a file, an email address, or a report object in another report. The hyperlink is saved with your report and is available to other users as a way of viewing additional information. Hyperlinks are also used to define Report Parts to be viewed in web browsers.
When you choose the Hyperlink command, the Hyperlink tab (Format Editor dialog box) appears.
Note:
  • If you create a hyperlink to another report object, you are creating an on-demand subreport. Just as one subreport cannot contain another subreport, you cannot create a hyperlink between two subreports. See How subreport linking works.
  • To select a hyperlinked object, use Shift-click or Ctrl-click. Clicking on a hyperlink, without using the Shift or Ctrl key, activates the link.
  • This command is also available as a button on the Expert Tools toolbar .

    --------------------------------------------

Let us know if you have success.
