Hi,

Can Crystal Report or other third-party reporting tool be part of a package
of distributable VB application (packed in a CD with an installer within
it)?

Is Crystal Report royalty-free?

Thank you.
Andy

Yes you can redistribute certain components.

With Crystal Reports 6 there's a runtime.hlp file that lists all
of the files. It's kind of a dorky configuration for a help file,
because it doesn't seem to put everything into one place,
but if you start off reading the first few sections of it.

Let us know if you have that file and what version you are
using.

is the link to the Crystal Reports website. I seem to have broken
it though doing searches on it. :-)

If Randy is not at Calgary, or if he is, I just have one thing to say...
Go Bolts!
