In VB6, we used the RDC.  We were able to use teh CRAXDRT.Report .Export method that would allow our end users select the export format (.xls, .pdf, .rpt, etc.) they wanted to export the report and select the destination to save it to.

 

In .NET, it looks like you have to pass the export type in vs having users choose it as it executes.  Is this true?  I think it is, but am just trying to confirm.

 

In the meantime, I am trying to use the CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CyrstalReportViewer ExportReport() method.  I can get this to bring up the Windows dialog to allow the user to select a destination and export format type.  The problem I am running into is that after clicking the Save button, a Message Box pops up stating Export completed.  The focus, however, is not on this message box.  So, it appears as though my programs is 'hanging'.  the Message Box is minimized on the Start bar.  If I maximize it and press OK, my program continues on.

 

Is there any way to prevent this message box from appearing or pass in a 'click' to say OK to close the message box?

 

Or, does anyone know another way to allow the end user to select (at runtime) the export format they want for the report using the Crystal for .NET methods?
