Deding Crystal Reports (Crystal Report) Embed a standard report tool for Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, and upgrade to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio
.NET. Its advantages are: 1, in
The .NET platform can easily create an interactive, high-quality report content, which is the main advantage of Crystal Reports; 2. Crystal Reports for Visual Studio
.NET, you can carry the report on the web platform and the Windows platform, and publish the Crystal report as a report web service in the web server; in
In .NET, the chart is actually a Crystal report that interacts with other controls in the application. Here I introduce you how to browse the crystal report in the Windows Form Application.
Design steps:
1. Software Environment: Requires the system installed Visual Studio
.NET integration development system, only
.NET FRAMEWORK SDK cannot achieve this effect, become
.NET Framework SDK has no crystal report control.
2. Newly built a Visual C # item Windows application, set the text = "Crystal Report Browser", startPosition = cENTERSCREEN / / Program starts to appear in the center, and other properties remain default;
3, drag into a CrystalReportViewer from the toolbox, a button, an OpenFiledialog, to the form.
The form layout of the entire designer simply puts Button1 in the middle of the form bottom, no longer need additional layout.
Set the properties of CrystalReportViewer1 as follows:
This.CrystalReportViewer1.dock = system.windows.forms.dockstyle.Fill;
// Stop mode is full of full form
// Expand Dockpadding
this.crystalReportViewer1.dockpadding.bottom = 50;
// The bottom empty is placed in the area of Button
This.crystalReportViewer1.dockpadding.Left = 5;
This.CrystalReportViewer1.dockpadding.right = 5;
this.crystalReportViewer1.dockpadding.top = 5;
THIS.CRYSTALREPORTVIEWER1.REPORTSOURCE = NULL;
// Do not load the report resource
Set the properties of Button1 as follows:
This.Button1.Anchor = system.windows.Forms.Anchorstyles.bottom
/ / Keep fixed with the lower side of the form
This.button1.text = "Open Report";
OpenFileDialog1 is the control to open the file and set its properties as follows:
this.openfiledialog1.filter
= "Crystal Report (* .rpt) | * .RPT | All files (*. *) | *. *";
/ / Provide the file type of the open file dialog,
The default type is the type of the most defined default of this string
this.openfiledialog1.title = "Open Crystal Report"; // Open the title of the file dialog
The layout renderings are as follows:
4, double-click Button1, add button1_click click event:
Private void Button1_Click (Object Sender, System.Eventargs E)
{
Try
{
IF (OpenFileDialog1.Showdialog () == DialogResult.ok)
This.CrystalReportViewer1.reportsource = @ OpenFiledialog1.FileName
// Load the crystal report to bind the report file to the CrystalReportView control;
}
Catch (Exception Error)
{
MessageBox.show (Error.Tostring (), "Error");
}
}
5, ok! Press CTRL F5 to run.
You can browse the existing report instances in your system:
... / Program Files / Microsoft Visual Studio
.NET / CRYSTAL REPORTS / SAMPLES / Reports / Feature Examples / Chart.rpt

In fact, there are many ways to bind reports to the CrystalReportViewer control.
