Question

I work on some project that is migrating from vb6 to web (asp.net). I need to print some kind of report – A table from database and number of simple headers with date and time. In vb it was implemented using vsPrinter object. Is there any Class in C# that is similar to this Class in vb6 in its functionality? If there in no such thing in .net, what is the easiest way to do this?

Thanx for assistance!

• Creating Crystal Reports using C# with Datasets.
• Crystal reports in ASP.NET
