Reports over internet

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a very general question about Reports on internet.

I am a long time user of Crystal Report included in Delphi apps, but I have no experience with web design.

I'd like to have some general information about what reporting over the web means. Basically, I want to be able to generate a report on the server and viewing it in a browser or in a normal CR Viewer. I plan to use .NET C# as development environment and latest CR2008.

What this means as 'server'? How the parameters can be send to the .rpt files? Can I have a 'normal' app on the client side?

Thanks for any points,

Ioan

we use a server to store our reports and we use asp pages to pull the reports. the asp page contains the parameter sets.

Sharon, thanks for the hint.

This points me to the next question:

Is there a sample of such design?
