After googling about print a generated report by Crystal Report on an ASP.NET page, I found out this stuff is impossible ,because doing some thing like that means print a page on the server and this is subnormal , because the user want its print on its client, so here is some questions :
-
Correct me please , am I wrong ?(I meant is it possible to print it on the client?)
-
Before using the crystal report ,I have generated my reports in
Stimulsoft. When the user click on the print button on the page , Stimul report posts back the page and after reloading , the print dialog opens and start to print.How to do something like this by crystal report -
If it is impossible ,so what is the advantage of crystal report on the web when user can not print it?!
-
I think the best way is to create an excel export and force it to download on the client, is it true ?
If anybody have an idea i will glad to know it , even a small one. Sorry about bad English syntax(I am new in English). For more details comment me, I will update my question.
Regards
After check my app on another system , I found out that because I install a PDF printer on mu system , when I click on the print button , crystal report start to export my report as a PDF document, So I think, Crystal report is acting like StimulSoft too , and showing that export dialog is depend to client print options , so my problem has been solve from the first and just have problem on my client. 😀
