I’m using the Crystal Reports included with VisualStudio 2005. I would like to change the image that is displayed on the report at runtime ideally by building a path to the image file and then have that image displayed on the report.
Has anyone been able to accomplish this with this version of Crystal Reports?
At work we do this by pushing the image(s) into the report as fields of a datatable. It’s not pretty, but it gets the job done. Of course, this solution requires that you push data into the reports via a DataSet. I’ve always felt this was a hack at best. I really wish that image parameters were a possibility with CR.
Edit: It’s worth noting, if you are binding your crystal report to plain old objects you want to expose a byte[] property for the report to treat that as an image.
