Author Creating Crystal Report At Runtime

Hi

I am looking for some sample code or sites which might have some
information in creating a report at runtime.

I am using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2005, I want to be able to
create reports from information held in Datasets which are populated
from SQL2000, all the examples I have seen use reports created at
design time, I want to create the report mainly with code during
runtime of the program.

Is there a way to design the report first then during runtime populate
the fields on the report from datasets. Bearing in mind that the
datasets are not yet created, I do know what fields they will contain
as they all come from stored procedures.

I used to be able to do this in VB6 with Active reports, I could just
bind the data to a field in the report at runtime using code.
Is this possible with Crystal Reports.

Regards
Kimbo
