Hi all,
I had hoped to build a simple VB6 front to allow the user to pass parameters to a Crystal Report, facilitate exporting/email reports, alter the sort order etc. However, I am working with Crystal 2011 and have learned that the crviewer.dll was retired in Crystal XI. What can I use instead to allow a user to run reports?
Thanking you in advance,
Imelda.

There is no way to do this in VB6 any more. You would have to use the latest version of the .NET SDK in a VB.NET application written in Visual Studio 10 or newer. You can download the SDK from here: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824. Use the "Install Executable" to get integration into Visual Studio. The other downloads are the various runtime install formats that you could use to deploy your application.
